Music stuff

I finally have an Vietnamese idol under 25 years old. That person is a singer.

Interesting stuff, for me!

Lady Gaga

In "Just Dance", there are these lines:

"Half psychotic sick hypnotic got my blueprint it's symphonic
Half psychotic sick hypnotic got my blueprint it's electronic"

I don't even know what that means!
And how did she come up with THAT?

Hmm. Thought for the day! HAH

Britney's New Song is annoying as hell!

Noo

Well, you shouldn't read the title as a long "No".

"Noo" is actually the stage name of this Vietnamese singer.
I'm quite impressed with this music video.
It's quite good, despite being minimal. It has a great concept, nice execution and really good lighting. Much better than the usual Viet crappy music clips that are so so so widespread nowadays.

By the way, this guy has got to be gay!

revive

This blog is seriously dead.
There is nothing interesting going on nowadays with my life.

But I'm buying a car in two months. Saving.

On American Idol 2009, I love Megan. She is so cute. I totally love her style.
The Matt guy is good this week too.
Anoop Desai is interesting. He's so down to earth and real.
Kris Allen is cute. Nice voice. Seems decent. But he is not that extraordinary.

I seriously can't stand Adam Lambert. His style is very disgusting, I think.
Danny Gokey is so preachy.

I felt like I'm on top of a hill, looking down on n the vast green valleys below, winds shuffling my hair, clouds tickle my ears... when I heard this song:

I kissed a girl

Well, this post is about the song "I kissed a girl" by Katy Perry.

HAHA. This post is no way about me. Whether I ever kissed a girl or not it will never end up on this blog.

I found this really nice and cute version on youtube:

Bonjour Vietnam

I am so touched by this song and this performance and this singer, Pham Quynh Anh.

I am so touched by the purity and the simplicity of the singer. And her honesty.

I am so touched!!!

Bleeding Love

That's a song by Leona Lewis, and it's the bestselling on iTunes for weeks, and you will hear it on radio stations every FIFTEEN minutes!!!

It's a nice and catchy song, but it's getting boring when you hear it HERE, THERE and EVERYWHERE!

HAHA!

Anyway, Leona Lewis is one lucky singer =]

Way to go English girl!

American Idol - Andrew Lloyd Webber

I can't believe I'm saying this but "DAVID COOK ROCKS!"

He showed a whole different side of him on Tuesday night. He sang "Music of the night," and I was totally surprised by his rendition. I expected to see something rockish, raw and angsty from him. But no, he sticked to the original melancholy, longing ballad version. It was so surprising to see a toned down, vulnerable David Cook with the song, and I loved everyone moment of it. The slight nuances in the songs, the vocal, the style, everything is awesome. It's a bit effeminate though, but heck cares, that made him look pretty on television, for once.

I'm so surprised at this rocker, and in a good way =]

My favorite Carly Smithson sang well =] She seemed effortless with the song Jesus Christ Superstar.

Well, sidestep a bit, I don't really like this musical - Jesus Christ Superstar, the music is not that groundbreaking as that of Phantom of the Opera. I've watched a few editions of Jesus Christ Superstar but I don't think the casts pulled it off well. The whole thing is just a little strange, as I don't like to watch the gospel that way. The only memorable song from the musical is "I don't know how to love him." I think it's for the role of Mary Magdalene.

Back to Carly, she was awesome. She sang well, and it was full of energy. I don't really like the form of her dress but I like the batik texture, it's very Asian =p I LOVE YOU CARLY =]

And I was like "WHAT??????????" when Jason Castro did not know that the legendary hit "MEMORY" is sang by a cat - well, not a real cat but an actress in a role of a cat. It's quite obvious, "Memory" is from the musical "Cats", who else will sing it besides erm... a cat? I love how goofy Jason Castro is. He is cheeky. Anyway, "Cats" is A REALLY PLOTLESS musical. I nearly chewed my hair after I finished watching "Cats" on DVD. It's just a whole bunch of people dressing as cats singing one after another. Well, the only nice part was "Memory" and I watched the version by Ellen Page and she was totally fantastic. Anyway, it's just a really really REALLLY plotless musical.

So please, after you finish watching "Cats", please don't kill yourself.



Or your cat!




David Archuleta made a whole new version of "Think of me". I think it was delectable, quite amazing how he transformed it into a whole new contemporary song. But I just love the original version so much that I don't really care about his version.

Mercado was ok, and boring, as usual.
And I don't even want to talk about Brooke White. Maybe it's her turn to leave the show.




This is a REALLY INTERESTING episode of American Idol.

And I'm out =]
