Enchanted

That's How You Know - Amy Adams

(A Capella, Giselle)
How does she know you love her?
How does she know she's yours?
(Marlon Saunders - Calypso Singer)
How does she know that you love her?
(Giselle)
How do you show her you love her?
(Together)
How does she know that you really
really
Truly love her?
How does she know that you love her?
How do you show that you love her?
How does she know that you really really truly love her?
(Giselle)
It's not enough to take the one you love granted
You must remind her or she'll be inclined to say
"How do I know he loves me?
How do I know he's mine?"
Well does he leave a little note to tell you you are on his mind?
Send you yellow flowers when the sky is grey?
He'll find a new way to show you a little bit every day
That's how you know
That's how you know he's your love
(Calypso Singer)
You got to show her you need her
Don't treat her like a mind reader
Each little something to lead her to believe you love her
(Giselle)
Everybody wants to live happily ever after
Everybody wants to know their true love is true
How do you know he loves you?
How do you know he's yours?
Well does he take you out dancing just so he can hold you close?
Dedicate a song with words meant just for you?
He'll find his own way to tell you with the little things he'll do
That's how you know
That's how you know he's your love
He's your love
That's how you he loves you
That's how you know it's true
Because he'll wear your favorite color just so he can match your eyes
Plan a private picnic by the fire's glow
His heart will be yours forever
Something everday will show
That's how you know (x5)
That's how you know he's your love
That's how you know
That's how you know he's your love

************************************************************************

And yes it's a soundtrack from Enchanted! I watched it last Saturday with the bus gang (not all though)- Sara, Jia Yen, Li-lin, Des and Gerard. I'd ramble about how good it is relishingly a few times a day without fail that my sister squints even as I mouthed "En..".. lol

So, Enchanted is a fish out of water type of fable, where Giselle from Andalusia (an animated world), is thrusted to the Big Apple in another dimension. Understandably, she holds on strongly to the fairy-tale belief of a "true love's kiss" , and meets divorce attorney, Robert (played by oh-so-hot Patrick Dempsey). As reality sinks in, the ever sweet Giselle threw a conniption fit when she learns of the existenceof divorce, on the contrary of a "happily ever after". (Well I guess it did for me too, at one point of time) Prince Edward (James Marsden), Giselle's charming but not so bright (mum calls him a moron) prince,came to her rescue.

Well, contradictory to her belief, Giselle is faced with her own change of heart, towards Robbert. And poor Prince Edward only comes to realize this heart-breaking truth when his kiss did not awaken Giselle, unconscious owned to the poisoned apple. But, this show, with the least bit of negative element, wraps it up with a happy ending for everyone (except the villain - Queen Narissa).And of course, Robert, Giselle and Morgan(Robert's offspring withhis first wife)lives a happily ever after life.

Well, I concede that I was in cloud nine throughout the show and drifted in the currents of post-Enchanted happiness. Life is so mundane without these pleasures, but with some inevitable amountof reservation, I wouldn't surrender fully to them.Nonetheless, Enchanted is incredibly brought to live by perfect casts:Amy Adam and her alluring voice, the ever charming Patrick Dempsey, the zany James Marsden with his never-ending buffoonery and the adorable chipmunk!

The scene I like most, is none other than the one in the park, when everybody join in the free and merry expression of love! Even untill now, an unaccountablecozy feeling surges through me whenever the thought of Enchanted crosses my mind. Yes, the one that made me crawled all over Sara, heaving out sighs of "Awws.." and "Ahhs"..

At least one thing that I think almost everyone would attest to -Enchanted brings out the magic in life and is definitely, worthy of its title.














Absolutely enchanting!
