Come on in to my humble abode; a warm and cosy place created in honour of my mom and grandmothers. You'll find lots of cooking, ravings and rantings within these walls; all of the heart and soul kind! Hope you enjoy this journey as much as I do.

a good reason to be sentimental.
you know rocky? is he ahiruddin atan, married to a journalist -- a daughter of a tan sri or a datuk?
i know the feeling. this song gets you right there. and november seems to be the month that somebody is leaving somebody.
feel the song. but don't get too carried away, love.
Anonymous, yeah. Long-time friend leaving. Song's for her & family.
yvonne, must be that Rocky. Damn, all my friends seem to be married these days, with 3.5 kids in tow! And I hope, aside from Jenny, that my other very married friends, Henry,Bobby,RJ,Dennis,Fred, Kris,Raelo,Tony,Ken,Gerald,Othman,Brenda,Sophia, Ivy,June,Ellie,Chica,Maria,Sharon,etc,etc,etc,etc take a fancy to this song and that we all get carried away together. That would be fun. Thanks for visiting and "knowing"(?) the feeling!
november rain's one of my favorites by gnrs!
and hey, watch the spelling! it's single "d" and double "t". rocky is easier as not many people would spell it "rocki" and even if they do it's ok.
gh
rocki, ooops, i mean rocky, you like this song too? nice one. also listen to the likes of ray sawyer (the guy with the eye patch)of dr hook. love his voice.
