Tiesto's set yesterday night was a little disappointing. Granted, the set could be described as being of above average in quality for any other DJ. However, having heard of his DJing prowess for some time, I can only conclude that there was much unachieved potential last night. Still, it must be noted that Tiesto did only have two hours for his very first set in Asia ever, and that may have contributed to the mediocre set. In addition, the overly strong bass of the sound system did kill off some of the nicer tunes dropped.

Moment(s) of the night:
- Meeting up with a US visitor who I had met last week when I went to a swing dance workshop.
- When Tiesto dropped Radiohead - Street Spirit (Tiesto remix). Awesome. My favourite song from one of my favourite bands.

On another note, I'm really starting to fall in love with Tiesto's Close to You (featuring Jan Johnston on vocals) from the In My Memory album.

Close To You

I wouldn't call it time well spent
Repeating to myself again
Find comfort in an endless stream of moments
I don't even care, about the way I feel today
Because it changes anyway
Something will make me cry or smile
Another picture on my pile

Now I'm standing close to you
It's just something that I do
When I need love to be enough
I wish love could be enough
'cause there is nothing more appealing
Than the thought that I could be enough

Do you find solace in the sun?
Do you consider life as one?
Do you believe there is a limit
To how fast a man can run?
Someone said you're born alive
Well I don't feel that alive

No I don't feel that alive

I don't feel that alive

Now I'm standing close to you
It's just something that I do
When I need love to be enough
I wish love could be enough

'cause there is nothing more appealing
Than the thought that I could be enough...enough
