If I forget
Sunday, July 19, 2009
I always tend to forget this... I took a whole night few weeks ago to remember this word. So what is that thing in your brain that makes think you what you are will make you who you are... that thing when something happens, but didnt and you felt that it did...
it's the placebo
it's the placebo
SI what?
Just saw the trailer for Singapore Idol... Seriously, i wonder what kind of delusional beings would want to audition for this nonsense popularity contest?
This show is slowly turning into a disaster with all the changes and revision to the contest format. It started out good because they finally found real talents in a bunch of nameless auditionees. However, as the years pass and the show growing larger, people are gettin sick of this consistent search for fakers and imposters who tries to be fantasia or Kelly clarkson. They are trying to screw the show by voting for the worst, hence the dawn of votefortheworst.com. clearly, they tried to minimist the possibility of this happening, they changed the format and it turns out to be destroying the whole essence of the talent contest, it is now all about of gaining popularity, superstardom and fame. if you wanna do that, there's an easier way to do it, which is sextape. if really they want to seek out for the best singers, the people should be given the entire chance to pick whose the one, the judges and talent scouts should also have their say. or else, it would just happen to go downhill like AI right. Heard that Paula Abdul and kara dioguardi may not return, Simon is sick of the competition, and only boring and insignificant randy is confirmed to continue for at least another 2 years... oh well, they might as well shut down the entire project now that it's falling apart...

National Day
Saturday, July 18, 2009
I have been this whenever i see this year's national day song, and I evaluated it to be bad, here are the reasons...
1) electrico performed the song. They are a rock band for Singapore's sake, not everybody can accomodate to the awkward music orientation of rock. After listening to song a couple of times, I still could not get myself to the least say enjoy the song. It was all sad and uninspiring. I understand the objective is to reach out to the younger generation, but why are the elderly neglected?
2) The lyrics are total nonsense. I understand that it is supposed to be like all nice and politically correct, however seriously the rock band is singing about destiny, moon, stars, and island. The lyrics is comparable to this year's Idol crowning song, all way to gay. The melody is great, the lyrics just doesnt match.
3) The video is really stupid. I don't understand the video at all. It features the Marina barrage, which is like this new thing in Singapore. However i couldnt understand the transition from which it was night time when the video started and it turned afternoon by the end... what does that symbolises. Secondly, why is the frontman of the rockband running like a retard towards the end. I mean like for whole 4 minutes he is singing and he was supposedly to stage a performance of that barrage, but he catwalk for 3.5 minutes and 0.5 minutes to run to the mike?! what does that mean? no sense of urgency?
4) The song is in English. usually when the english version sucks really badly, the chinese version is better. Well this year, it is totally english, and it really sums up the badness of the theme song. And why there isnt a chinese version? is it because they can't translate the lousy english lyrics into chinese? why are the non-english speaking population deprived of the chance to celebrate the NDP with a song?
5)people can't sing the song because of all the weird lyrics and weird melody. what is a theme song when people can't sing along to it. This year's theme song is a complete failure. not only are the lyrics weird, the melody awkwardly low and inconsistent timing, the theme song is just bad and a failure in all.
In conclusion, bring back all those pop singers who have been singing the national day songs.
now, this is what i call good theme song. In 2003, Stefanie took a second time to produce a theme song, and indeed it worked really well although the song not as well publicised as the other years... One United People has got to be the best NDP song since the year Singapore started having one. here are 5 reasons why
1) the lyrics although heavily tagged with the word Singapore, but they are very powerful and not as cheesy as the other years. It was precise and strong, there was no shenanegans of singapore having to battle obstacles, no chasing of moons and stars.
2) the melody and music is really good. It was haooy and cheery throughout the whole song. The best part was when it began, with this strong beat and subsequently the rest are very nice with a lot of Chinese, malay, indian essence in it.
3) the video is very real. there was no cheesy acting, there was nobig groups of people coming together and smiling to the camera. It was all stefani and her learning to dance the line dance, silat, chinese opera and bollywood. It was really nice especially when all the dances came together by the end of the video.
4)It was totally singable, every word has a certain tune to sing to. There was no belting, no tweaking of melody, no screaming, and it is singable at regular person's vocal range. and the portions when the tempo sped up a little, makes the song very catchy and fun to sing to.
5) this was the song that I sang to when I was in Primary school when I had to attend the NDP rehearsal, I really loved it when she came out to sing while the fireworks lit the sky in thousand colours... while i watched, I mouthed the lyrics along with stefani. it was really really good.
I am sure if any other year were to produce a new NDP theme song, it wouldn't reach the beauty and goodness of ONE UNITED PEOPLE. And I really think Home is overrated, I don't think it's that nice at all, still one united people has to be the best NDP song. This NDP, i will be playing this song while electrico sings their disaster song.

New Skin
Friday, July 17, 2009
Hey Hey guys... I changed the blogskin!!! i noticed the old one was experiencing some problems and I thought to myself, "how should I de-bug the problem?" And then i came up with a solution, don't. Then I went skin surfing on the web and found a really cool template and here it is. though it looks kind of cramped up, But i think overall presentation is nice...
So, there you go. Since I am going to be busy, i won't have the time to change the skin as often, so I guess this will be permanent until I get the chance to reformat it, found a new song, thought of a new banner... But i am positive that I can update more often thanks to blogger buddy, which i am using now. And also I added a twitter update there as well. Yes, I twitter some times, so catch on my latest update here, or my twitter page or facebook page. These are some of the network sites i regular visit and update... the rest are pretty much abandoned and left to rot...
until then, indulge yourself in this brand new ME-AT-ALL. and guess what? you don't need to click on any buttons unless you are navigating out of the blog. Everything you see here is what you get...

So after this month, the skins are going to be permanent, meaning there won't be anymore magazine covers. And ooh, by the way, I am posting this from my sidebar and I have a new twitter account... yeah, so I will be updating status pretty often.

John Wakefield
Friday, July 10, 2009
Wow, this show is really worth all the reviews. Harper's island is like the series of the year.
So the story was about a group of friends returned to an island, called Harper's Island. Henry and Tricia are getting married and Abbie, Henry's best friend, is invited to the wedding. Abbie has a scary past on the island. Her mother was killed there in a John Wakefield rampage. Now that she is back, she experiences a whole new experience of her own. Murders went on the island while th wedding ceremony proceeds. One by one visitors and residents of the island die. Nobody knows who or what was going on, but they had one clue, someone is imitating John Wakefield. However, they had no solid proofs. While they stayed in search for the true culprit, more lives are lost and each time they had the opportunity to leave the island, a whole new problem arise and forced them to remain on the island. The longer that they stayed, the higher the risk of them being killed. As episodes pass, they gained more clues, and found out that John Wakefield was never dead like what Abbie's father, island Sheriff, thought he did years ago. Now everybody knows that John Wakefield is alive, they are more terrorized and scrambled to find way to get out of the island. However, due to some climate conditions, their plans have always been postponed. Often they have never seen John Wakefield, but people are dieing. then, they knew that one of them is an accomplice to John Wakefield. Now, they are trying to figure out who is that person. Clues point out that it's Jimmy, Abbie's love on the island. people start to get suspicious with each other, but Jimmy got most attention out of it. Even with Jimmy accompanying Abbie all the way, people are still dieing. Yeah, John wakefield is alive, but he couldnt possibly be the one who plots all these deaths. then came the last episode...
Jimmy was not John's accomplice. It was Henry. How did I know? He came clean in that episode to everybody else who's alive before killing them. And then we found out that Henry was John's son, the one thing that Abbie was very nervous that she was as evident from the journal she got of John's life in the prison. Their plan was to kill off Abbie and leave the island's history as a history. However Henry thinks not, he finally killed his own father and let Jimmy and Abbie alive. He locked Jimmy away and kept Abbie in his house. Why? because of some stupid reason that Abbie told him when they were kids that she wanted him and her to live on the island alone forever. That's why Abbie is still alive. Jimmy is alive because henry wanted to put all the blame of the murders on him. Abbie is terrorized by that, and she tried to find a way to escape the island with Jimmy. In the end, Abbie killed Henry and they finally left the island. The end of Season 1
I dont think that there will be any season 2 because there is no one on the island any more and the island will probably be in police lockdown for many many years. Unless they come out with a new storyline, we sure can be satisfied with the story of Harper's Island.
