If I were a Rich Man


Gwen Stefani and her managers and whoever is related to her albums spoilt this beautiful song...

I was introduced to Fiddler on the Roof when my Dad brought back the video tape from NgeeAnn's library. I kind of forgotton the story but I wanna watch it again!!!! I was in Primary school then! He also taught me another nice song in this movie, Matchmaker...

"Matchmaker, matchmaker make me a match.
Find me a find, catch me a catch."

I didn't understand what "catch me a catch" was, so I asked my Dad. He said that it is when the bride throws a bouquet of flowers backward and ladies who are single would catch it. Tradition says that for the one who catches it, she will be married next.

From that day on, I thought it would be cool to have the chance to catch it.

Little did I know it came to pass last month @_@ But yup, I was actually humming that song on the way home after the wedding.

I've been listening to all their songs on Youtube (thank God for it). I really like the middle eastern kind of tune in all of their songs!!
