[caption id="attachment_62872" align="alignright" width="300" caption="Natalie Cole/Admin (www.afromontreal.com)"][/caption] Hello all my friends, Sudah setahun lebih saya absen menulis blog ini. Bukan saya sengaja, tapi semata karena kebablasan. Diawali oleh kelupaan password, lalu terkena sindrom "Nyaman absen". Padahal Kang Pepih, Pak Admin, sudah berbaik hati membantu memberi arahan mengingat kembali password yang terlupa. Rindu juga saya menulis blog, sama seperti rindu kepada sobat yang lama tak bersua. Itu sebabnya saya memberi judul blog ini "Miss you like crazy", sebuah hit evergreen yang dinyanyikan oleh Natalie Cole. Yang menarik, meski sudah setahun saya tinggalkan, dengan tulisan terakhir tentang Sarah Palin, dan sebelumnya tentang Poniyem Fitriana, ternyata saya masih secara teratur menerima komentar dan sapaan. Saya ingin mengucapkan terima kasih. Tentu selama lebih dari setahun tidak muncul, ada banyak toopik yang dapat saya kisahkan kepada teman-teman Kompasiana, mulai dari perkembangan jurnalisme dan media, tentang penerbangan, juga militer, dan politik internasional yang menjadi minat dan perhatian saya. Sekali-sekali, seperti kali ini, musik juga menjadi catatan menarik. Ini lah sekadar warming up. Esok saya akan kembali. Sementara itu, marilah kita simak lirik Miss you like crazy dan membayangkan suara Natalie Cole.
Even though its been so long, my love for you keeps going strong I remember the things that we used to do, a kiss in the rain Til' the sun shined through, I'd try to deny it, but I'm still in love with you I miss you like crazy, I miss you like crazy, ever since you went away Every hour of every day, I miss you like crazy, I miss you like crazy No matter what I say or do, there's just no getting over you I can see the love shining in your eyes, and it comes as such a sweet surprise If seeing's believing its worth the wait, so hold me and tell me its not too late We're so good together, we're starting forever now, And I miss you like crazy I miss you like crazy, ever since you went away, every hour of every day I miss you like crazy, I miss you baby, a love like ours will never end Just touch me and we're there again Musical interlude Just one night and we'll have that magic feeling like we used to do Hold on tight and whatever comes our way we're gonna make it through If seeing's believing its worth the wait, so hold me and tell me its not too late We're so good together, we're starting forever now And I miss you like crazy, I miss you like crazy No matter what I say or do there's just no getting over you And I miss you (baby), I miss you (baby), all the tender love you gave me When a feeling gets this strong, you know the real thing come along And I miss you, I miss you like crazy baby, only (you're) should be "your" sweet love Can save me, I miss you like crazy, a love like ours will never end Just touch me and we're there again, Miss you like crazy, I miss you like crazy
