malaysian politics can be exciting.

the ceramahs were incendiary, cili padi, yes, its fun being in a crowd. isn't it?

shouting along even if you can't vote. even though most of the issues raised were irrational, the promises unpragmatic.

i think it's just the situation of being in a large group of people who are they to make noise. the feeling of being part of a community, of belonging.

shouting along to time is running out in stadium negara. the sweat-drenched shirt, the dry throat, the crushing crowd.

muse, we are scientists, club 8 and pelle carlberg. gives me that crowd-high.

just one more now. the kop!

i want to be in that army, when the reds go marching in.

let's sing together, sing it loud, and sing it proud, so the tune doesn't even matter
