In 2009, New Year’s Resolution: The Pursuit of Happyness I wrote “I know what brings Happiness and I want to share that Happiness with you.” That time I knew but I didn’t want to share because I wanted to believe in it.
Millions of people living in Bangladesh would be much happier if they could have my life -- This statement may raise arguments but I want to emphasize more on ‘Do I even realize how good life I have?‘ It does not matter how good life I have, I always want more! I believe, I’m not alone.
Take a look at people around you. They are running. They are under some influence. Some of them are trying to hypnotize(!) you. Worst part is: You want what others want. It’s the American Dream: “citizens of every rank feel that they can achieve a better, richer, and happier life” -- James Truslow Adams, 1931,
If not happiness, what should be goal of mankind?
Happiness and Sorrow both are great tutors. Mostly, it’s Sorrow which teaches you. When you run after happiness and you fail, you have sorrow. Some of you give up, some of you learn from your mistakes.
I’m in pursuit of knowledge. I don’t find it in books but in people around me.
Note: If you can’t read me, don’t bother. I bullshit a lot these days.
I’m not saying I liked Russell Gunn’s ‘fly me to the moon’ very much and this writing is not about Jazz.
After coming back from a very hard working day, I close my door, turn the light off and throw myself on bed. One thing I do in addition to that, is, I hear Jazz. Did you ever try listening very low volume Jazz in complete dark room? Awesome! Even if you want to get started why not try some tonight?
Again, not today, I’m not writing on Jazz. ‘Fly me to the moon’ is our topic, and therefore, let’s hear different recordings at different times by famous artists.
1961 – Fly me to the moon – Nat King Cole
1963 – Fly me to the moon – Julie London
1964 – Fly me to the moon – Frank Sinatra
1967 – Fly Me To The Moon – Wes Montgomery
There have been many other remake and remix recordings but I liked 2004 – Fly me to the moon – Westlife among 21st century recordings. I’m sure that Bart Howard, author of this song, would hang himself if he had a chance to know how his verse, originally ‘In other words’ has been exploited even though these are highly rated on Youtube!
Fly me to the moon – Utada Hikaru
2007 – Fly me to the moon – Diana Krall
Fly me to the moon – Paul Gilbert
If none of these are, definitely 2004 – Fly Me To The Moon – Lena Park is the worst version I’ve listened, so far.
Would you disagree that “1960 gave us all heavenly music”? ::SIGH::
In other words
Fly me to the moon
Let me play among the stars
Let me see what spring is like
On Jupiter and Mars
In other words, hold my hand
In other words, darling, kiss meFill my life with song
And let me sing for ever more
You are all I long for
All I worship and adore
In other words, please be true
In other words, I love you

I love this one! 
Thank you Hasan Mahmud for making it so lovely!
I was checking my most played songs in last 12 months. Statistics are accurate but I think I would not decide favorite list by number of times a song was played; sometimes I forget to stop music player and sleep like mud-boy whole night.
I think my top 15s are
What song do you think I’d like to put on #15th? I don’t mind if it’s Katy Perry’s I kissed a girl .
Two weeks ago, you have posted songs that could take place in this list. I liked few of your songs and listened to them repeatedly. Thank you so much for sharing such beautiful songs. Today, I’m going to complete the favorite list.
For the record, I was completely dishonest from the beginning. Off the record, I can’t take a song shared by you and hurt the other ones. So, I added 15th one from my own choice. Here it goes:
Surprised? The reason, for which The Godfather theme is in this list, is weird. I have no idea what she uttered.
