Mangatyanan Trailer

Our drummer Jerrold, aside from being a kick-ass drummer, is primarily an independent filmmaker. He just finished up his latest Cinemalaya film. Check out the film trailer below.



The boy is good at what he does to say the least. And here I was insecure about his learned musical knowledge. When his film writing, directing, and producing is at a much higher level than even his music.

I Don't Trust Myself

It's been a while since I posted a song. I have a few to post. But they're not so relevant to my thoughts and feelings anymore. So please expect that I'll post one song after another until I catch up to current. :p

I was crunching over this song for a few weeks straight for some reason. I like the groove of the song. And although the lyrical content is rather cheesy, the songs gives you a feeling of something to look forward to if you do find someone. John Mayer's shift from his pop sensibilities into a my blue-sy groove vibe is more than welcome to my ears. I do like his older stuff. His Continuum album just really shows how his music has progressed and matured.

Anyway, here's some slideshow video someone put together of the song on YouTube. Along with the song's prose. The slideshow is kinda corny. But it will do for the purposes of letting you listen to the studio album version of the song.



I Don't Trust Myself (With Loving You)
by John Mayer

No I'm not the man I used to be lately
See you met me at an interesting time
If my past is any sign of your future
You should be warned before I let you inside

Hold on to whatever you find baby
Hold on to whatever will get you through
Hold on to whatever you find baby
I don't trust myself with loving you

I will beg my way into your garden
I will break my way out when it rains
Just to get back to the place where I started
So I can want you back all over again

Hold on to whatever you find baby
Hold on to whatever will get you through
Hold on to whatever you find baby
I don't trust myself with loving you

Who do you love?
Girl I see through, through your love
Who do you love me or the thought of me? me or the thought of me?

Hold on to whatever you find baby
Hold on to whatever will get you through
Hold on to whatever you find baby
I don't trust myself with loving you

Hold on to whatever you find baby
Hold on to whatever gets you through through
Hold on to whatever you find baby
I don't trust myself with loving you
I don't trust myself with loving you
I don't trust myself with loving you
I don't trust myself with loving you



This is actually the video of a live performance of the song that first caught my attention. It shows that his melodic style does blend really well when applied with a Stevie Ray Vaughn feel to guitar soloing.
