AsikAsik

Untuk buat hidup ini asik, pilihlah lagu yang membuat hari-harimu terasa tidak sia-sia dan hidupmu bukan kesia-siaan. Buanglah koleksi lagu yang membuatmu merasa tidak mempunyai arti. Carilah lagu-lagu yang memberikan dorongan.

Sebagai langkah awal, carilah lagu di bawah dan dengarkan.


I hate a song that makes you think that you are not any good.
I hate a song that makes you think that you're just born to lose,
bound to lose, no good to anybody, no good for nothing,
because you're either too old or too young or too fat or too thin
or too ugly or too this or too that . . .
Songs that run you down or songs that poke fun at you
on account of your bad luck or your hard travellin'.

I'm out to fight those kinds of songs
to my very last breath of air and my last drop of blood.

I'm out to sing songs that will prove to you that this is your world,
and that if it has hit you pretty hard, and knocked you for a dozen loops,
no matter how hard it’s run you down and rolled over you,
no matter what colour, what size you are, how you are built,
I'm out to sing the songs that make you take pride in yourself
and in your work. And the songs that I sing are made up
for the most part by all sorts of folks just about like you.


Woody Guthrie
