My mouse is from Tron.
I must say, i'm quite in love with my mouse. Don't you think it looks like something from Tron?
Check out the gorgeous blue and red led lights, boy.
i'm watching singapore idol now.. taufik is singing yeah by usher. hes not too bad, i suppose. but i gotta say one thing. in the whole idol franchise, singapore has got to have the absolute WORST back up musicians.
i'm sure that old guy and the woman are pretty decent at what they are able to do. and they sound great doing some pop-ish things. but they completely lack versatility, and they try to tackle things that they can't pull off. like USHER! my god.
poor taufik. how do you get into the mood for singing a hip hop/r'n'b song when the background music sounds like its played by a one-handed monkey on a toy keyboard? urgh.
would it be that tough to hire perhaps a full band worth of musicians? come on, singapore has more than enough competent
musicians! just one drummer, one keyboardist, one bassist, two guitarists, maybe one DJ. urgh.
hmm florence lian looks like princess amidala. whats with the hair? i always thought she was pretty lao chio, stylish and all that. and now she comes with a princess amidala hairdo. oh lord.
i must admit though. singapore idol is lots more entertaining than i expected! some of the singers are relatively competent, and although some of the best singers have already been knocked, its still interesting to see how singapore votes.
but ultimately this is still a popularity contest, isn't it? i mean, i might follow it, and i support maia lee, but damn, why should i waste my parent's hard earned cash? its not like theres even a lucky prize for voting for the ultimate winner.
incidentally, my mother votes for maia.. she used to be one of my mother's favourite pupils, though my mom thinks shes a bit "ah lian".
i understand ppl might disagree with my apathetic singaporean viewer outlook, but don't ever think i'm trying to impose my views on you! in fact, please, pick up your phones now! vote for maia!
is it just me but when olinda cho dedicated the song she sang ("when a man loves a woman") to her future husband, she seemed to be trying to dispel butch/lesbian rumours going around? well. she sounds AMAZING though! and shes actually pretty good looking tonight, i must say. haha. vote for her too! lol.
urgh. SIA commecial. "singapore girl, great way to fly". sad memories trying to rush in. block out, block out! ha!
hey flora chan! i think shes absolutely gorgeous, and i think its quite a coup for mediacorp to get her for a english show!
if i remember correctly she was born or bred in the states, so she speaks good english, unlike the other hk imports we've been getting. can't wait to watch her show at nine! i've loved her classiness and her style and her sass since Files of Justice years and years ago.
slyvester sim singing "don't wanna miss a thing" now. and guess what? PATHETIC BACKGROUND MUSICIANS STRIKE AGAIN! horrific. simply horrific. I'd rather singapore idol use karaoke records for them man. just go to any ktv at katong or wherever and you can probably find backing tracks for any damn song you want.
i gotta admit though. takes guts to sing on national tv.. i wouldn't have the balls, admittedly.. haha. but thats cos i consider myself a decent amateur musician and i know for a fact i sing like crap =P (actually i do uber-macho things like Tom Jones' "Sex bomb" pretty good. but i doubt it'll appeal to the masses.. haha)
