Aung Yin

We call him Ba Ba for one of our nieces call him that (when she was 2 years old) since he looks like one of our family members. It was just in time because Aung Yin was singing all those golden age Ba Ba songs by that time and I have lost my interest in finding his original style. Although I have lost my interest, believe it or not, he was one of my favorites when his first album hit came out. Min Ma Shi Tae Naut (Since you've been gone??).

So much memories attached to this song. This album was the center of vivid memories of naive and arrogant days??? No matter what, I am grateful for the songs and the memories attached to it. Aung Yin was young and regal on the newly opened bridge connecting Thuwunna and Tharkayta in this album ad. I liked almost all of the songs in this album. One of the best ever --- most of them that I like are written by my favorite of all time Htoo Ein Thin, of course.

"Ah Khar Lwon Daw Moe" (Belated Rain??) is my favorite of all. I like the whole album --- all the songs especially the title song with back up singing part was my favorite. I used to sing only the back up part when I play this song with friends. Songs are the best keepers of memories and that is why I love them so much. Songs are like a tiny memory flowers that are threaded on the long chain of my life events.

We talked non stop about "Mi Moe" song which is dedicated to I forgot her name --- who? Yu Nandar Myint's sister?? I think, according to the rumors. And then, they got married until the famous dancing queen came?? due to the event of revival of plays on stage or due to the events of entertainment shows to the far stretch areas of the country? Rumors, rumors, so much about celebrity are always floating around the air which serves as an entertainment for general public, sadly to say.

As sad as I could get, still remember Aung Yin with "Tait-pone and different colors of yaw on television", which I like a lot as a trend back then. It was classic. Gersing on Youtube sounds very much like Aung Yin --- just a side track. I hope he sings the whole "Min Ma Shi Dae Naut" album --- just the greed to replenish my memories. He sort of looks like Aung Yin too, puffy eyes?? I don't know.

Aung Yin had so much potential, so much charisma, and so much likable in terms of presentation wise, fashion, and singing style. Stars fade away because of the cloud sometimes. Aung Yin's sound quality is very strong and has his own freedom in style, the only thing is that it could be nasal at times which could be forgivable and even it made his trademark. His first album is my life --- and that was it. There were some songs here and there --- some are really good but doesn't have the same impact as the first one.

"When you are gone, I don't want to living on --- I have died yesterday already on the thought of you leaving me ---living is vain---meaningless without you ---all alone by myself---" Why do I love all those heart broken songs??? Because HET wrote them? or because Aung Yin sang them? or because I wanted my heart to be broken. Aung Yin had broken my heart after all. =)
