Songs That I'm Listening Now

It's getting a bit boring these days. I can hardly get excited about any new music.
I need something for me to get excited and obsessed with.

Short personal review of few songs that I'm listening now.
Taking a cue from J.Mensah' Billboard Files.

"While I'm getting READY FOR THE WEEKEND to a HOLIDAY, I met a SEXY BITCH that put a SPELL on me, everything goes BOOM when she goes DOWN on me and that's when I saw SHOOTING STARS in my head??"

LOL? I tried my best. XD

Dizzee Rascal - Holiday ft Chrome
Reminds me of Dance Wiv Me, Love it's quirkyness. I can identify the Calvin Harris sounds, but some how I don't get the same feeling with Bonkers (not my kinda thang).

--Same old, same old, Babes Babes Babes everywhere--

-----

Calvin Harris - Ready for the Weekend
It's okay. It's not bad. I prefer I'm Not Alone so much more. Not a love at 1st listen category. It slowly grows on you.


-----

David Guetta - Sexy Bitch ft Akon
Hm, this is so different from When Love Takes Over. But still good, heavy beats and catchy chorus. Don't think this version will ever be on the radio here, but what's the point of playing it if you gonna censor the most interesting part? LOL.

--After watching the video, they should totally change the song to sexy bitches~ I don't see THE sexy bitch anywhere, but there are tons of them tho. The part Akon sing underwater? LOL!--

-----

Anjulie - Boom
I like this song, after few spins, it stuck to my head in a good way. No, she's not like MIA. The song is more sexy and MIA is those power beats type. Totally different style. Love them both.

--Click on the link below for the official video, this is the song only version--
== Anjulie - Boom ==

-----

Jay Sean - Down
I love the version without the Lil Wayne part. It's wayyy better. Why can't he make another video without Lil Wayne? Do you really slot in a rap part just for the sake of more marketability? Love his previous stuff too; Stolen, Eyes on You, Dance With You & Stay.

--Seriously, Jay is looking good these days--

-----

Alphabeat - The Spell
As a pop fan, how can you not LOVE Alphabeat? They produce great pop songs. This is Amazing. Been repeating over and over again since from the moment I got it. I love their previous stuff too, Fascination, What is Happening, Boyfriend, Fantastic 6. Gosh, their previous album is one of my faves last year. I can't wait for the new stuff too.

--What's up with the BLUE color theme?--

-----

Bag Raiders - Shooting Star
Ok, I have no idea who is this (what a name!) but the song is Brilliant. I love the fact this song slowly built up momentum before reaching certain high and BOOM! It goes havoc, in a good way.
I remember getting this song from Chartrigger. (click on chartrigger for more info)
Oh, They're an Aussie duo. Cut/Copy without the guitar?

--The original video is abit tacky for my taste, LOL, I prefer this audiosurf version more--

Have a nice day everyone!!!

Genting Trip

Hello,
I'm back from my mini-getaway on the highest peak entertainment center in Peninsular Malaysia, GENTING.

Even though I haven't settle my internship placement,
Lies and accusation had been thrown around and even in Facebook!
You really get to see the real side of people,
Some people really have no class these days.
But that's another story,
don't have the time to care about those jerks, bitches and bastards~


The point of this post is to post few of pics from my trip.
Be warned that most of the pics don't really have any scenery involved.

It's more of a self-vain self portrait or as how I would love to think;
"Capturing those happy moments. Scenery or no scenery ain't that important,
as long as you are happy with your best-ies moments."



My sweeties.

The other part of my sweeties.

Group pics! outside the Shopping center.
They really can shop everywhere!
-----



PNGCK! That's our group name.

Love this pic! 1st group photo after reaching the hotel room.
XD

They are the reason why I believe that my University life is worth it.
I love my friends.
I love you all,
Ling Ling, Chin Chin, Han Han, Lan Lan,
Moon Moon, Cece, & QQ!
Friendship Forever!

Backstreet's Back!

OMG.
The video for the 1st single,
Straight Through My Heart
(Soldier Down),
from their upcoming album, This Is Us, is finally out!

Check it out!

Backstreet Boys - Straight Through My Heart (Soldier Down)


I'm totally lovin' the single,
the video is obviously aiming for the Twilight fan base,
especially those tweens. Twilight is okay.
BUT,
I love True Blood more. Addickted to it like I'm on meth!!
LOL. (I do not support the use of any drugs illegally)
I totally get the vampire theme going on.
I would love to see more dancing though.
I'm satisfied. Don't really fancy the video that much. It's okay.
I really hope their upcoming new album would be fantastic,
but from what I've heard from the supposedly leaked songs in the web,
I can safely say it's going to be AWESOME!
Can't wait!

OMG. They are officially back!! (with the video premiere)
KTBSPA!

Backstreet Boys

Is it me or the new BSB stuff is seriously good?
Straight Through My Heart is brilliant!
What I Know Now is nice.
Bye Bye Love is like I Want It That Way pt II. (it's a good thing)

I mean like, IT'S GREAT!!
I really dig their new stuff as much as their old stuff.
Look what I manage to find in Youtube. TGFY~ (Thank God for Youtube)
Another leaked song from the new album, This Is Us.

Backstreet Boys - All In My Head


Tell me that I'm NOT on my own right now.
This stuff is actually good.
I really can't wait for the new album this Oct 6th.
Anyone gettin' excited?

Skip This If...

Skip this post if you are not into reading emotional stuff esp by ME.


Oh gosh, I know my few posts lately is very very depressing but I have my own reason to it. If I can share my good news here, heck, I need to share my bad ones also.
God! I still can't get over the fact that I'm in deep shit right now since my application got rejected by them. Urgh. I don't feel that good even though I'm trying my best to hide it with lots of laughter and Craig Ferguson.

I've found another place for me to try my luck but those unforeseen circumstances that happened during the past 2 days where I'm supposed to meet up with the counselor is making me - the worrier, to stress up really badly. It's not like she don't want to meet up with me but the fact she can't for her own personal reason is pretty understandable. But still, nothing is confirm yet. I'm not even sure about the meeting next Monday and I need to confirm my application on next Wed! Gosh. I'm really freaking out right now. I'm really hoping for the best but me - the pessimistic, too, with my own dilemma is not working out so well right now.

I really don't know how to express everything out properly. I really hope that by Monday, everything is going to be alright soon. I don't think I'm managing this well since I'm having backache and mild insomnia now.

Sorry for all this.
I don't want to bother my bestie with all this. They already got their own deals already. Thank you for reading. I'm closing the comments section for this post though.

Quote of the Moment

The sea does not reward
those who are too anxious,
too greedy, or too impatient.
One should lie empty, open,
choice less as a beach -
waiting for a gift from the sea.

Not A Good Day

I just got the news that my application for internship just got rejected.
It sucks.
I believe the fact that I didn't manage to score a place there is totally because I'm a Chinese.
Call me ignorant or racist but that's how I want to think right now.
Judge all you want.
(The place is surrounded by Malay 100%)
Of cos they would choose the Malay girl over me.
What was I thinking?
Argh.
I should have a back up a place in case I got rejected,
(I never thought things like this would ever happened to me)
A bloody good crash at my ego.
Having good results can do shit these days.

I've been frantically searching for a new place to apply for my internship placement since the moment I got the bad news.
The thing is, I need to confirm my internship placement by next week. =(
And the fact that I still have tons of assignment to be finished by end of this week, NOT GOOD.
I'm suppose to have my semester break holiday right now! Even for a week!

"Failure is not an option - because it doesn’t exist. Failure is just one critical step on the path to success. You can start over any time you choose, no matter what mistakes you made in the past. You can change anything with a new attitude and ...new mindset. Winners know that it’s the comeback that counts."
~Unknown

I'm trying my best to be optimistic here.
Please pray for my interview tomorrow.
Crossing fingers, hairs, legs and every single part of my body that can be cross.

Yes, I Love U

Feeling very emo today. Skip this post if you are not ready for my emo-ness.

I got this from LeLove.
PeiLing posted this on her facebook.
This means a lot to me.
It seems like the person who wrote this have the same frequency with me.

And all this time,
I thought that I'm the only one who ever feel that particular way about love.
I just want to share something so meaningful to me.
I'm not really good with words.
I'm just going to post the original post here and redone it.
It's like a love letter for your future love that you are in love with right now.
And yet you have no fricking idea who is that person, yet.


I've been staying up all night.

I have no stories about wonderful meeting, fingers twisting my hair, hands around hips. I don't know your smell or warmth or what clothes you're wearing.
I haven't ever met you, but I think I love you.
Maybe it was good you went on vacation, because that gave me time to think about you and me. And suddenly I just realized how much I really like you.

I couldn't sleep tonight, so I started the computer. I walked with my bare feet over the cold cold floor, wearing only underwear and huge knitted cardigan.

And I wanted to write you.
Tell you how I started crying when you said you think you liked me, how I think about you every day and every hour, how happy you make me even if you don't understand, because you're simply so nice to me.

My first love was the most horrible thing that had ever happened to me. You made me recover.

When I started talking to you I forgot everything.
Do you realize how big it is?

Do you even understand how affected you can
be by someone you haven't met?

And I was sitting in my loneliness, with you too many miles away, crying, scared by the thought that you share the city dreams and kisses with someone else.

I wanted to write a whole novel about it.

Everything I said was that I liked you.
I like you.


No. I don't like you.
You're the most amazing thing that has ever happened to me.
But you don't know.
You haven't even gotten my message yet.
I hope you'll go online later. So you'll see.
I'm so nervous. I couldn't sleep.
And if you do.

I'll tell you.
I love you.

// E

The original post is in the link above.

I've made few adjustment striking out all those that are irrelevant to me and all that's left is something that totally resonate with how I'm feeling every single day. I'm serious. It's good. It's all good cos YOU are going to be here soon. I know it.

It's the rule of life: Everything you've always waited for comes the very second you stop looking for it. ~ Unknown

I Love You.

The Sound of Arrows

I love this duo back when M.A.G.I.C is released as a free download.
They sound like they belong to a Fantasy-Pop/Electronic genre.
I just made that up. Heck.
All I know is that M.A.G.I.C is an incredibly great pop song.
Don't believe me? Check this out.

MTV World Stage Live In Malaysia Last Part

Okay.
MTV really know how to throw a party!
MTV WORLD STAGE LIVE IN MALAYSIA.
Freaking awesome-ness!!!!
At first I was not too enthusiastic about the artist line up.
I dig The All American Rejects,
Pixie Lott
and Kasabian but the rest, not so much.
But it was all worth it.
They managed to drained up a huge swimming pool/man-made sea for the events.
Kinda impressive if you ask me.

The event started right on time. I'm very impressed on how MTV do things. Punctuality is a good thing. 1st performance of the night is by local band, Estranged. Don't really dig their stuff (too noisy with all those screaming) and the bass player with the huge drawn on face tattoo is fugly. But the crowd did show some lovin' for them. =) Good for them.

Boys Like Girls is surprisingly "popular" in Malaysia, even among the guys. *shocked* I saw most of them humming to the songs. *gasp*
The lead singer really know how to work a crowd though.
I don't really get much of their appeal other than their 1st single The Great Escape. Another pop rock band that is going to be forgotten by time. i.e. Faber Drive? Alien Ant Farm? Creed? Trapt? Story of the Year?


So, anyone heard of Raygun before? No? Me too.



Don't let their kid-ish band name fool you.
They are quite fun. Lead singer is very charming and their performance is very enjoyable. My bro who don't listen much to English music enjoyed their performance more than Kasabian. LOL. Their 1st single, Just Because ain't too shabby.
Indie-Pop-Soul thingy going on. Nice.
A quick google about them - RAYGUN aka the Disco Superheroes. LOL.
Their 1st single video is kinda cool.
Check it out. Here's the link.
Raygun - Just Because.

My 1st favs artist performing for the night.
Ms Pixie Lott. Give it up, give it up!
One thing for sure, this girl can sing LIVE. She sounded great, fabulous even.
Plus, she's easy on the eyes. She look so cute. She does. Maybe is the make up and stuff but no doubt that she is a pretty + hot girl who knows how to sing. Double combo! Not just a pretty face. *whip*
Turn It Up, Boys & Girls and Mama Do. The crowd did chant along with the "uh oh" part of Mama Do. Well I guess the plug in by MTVAsia before the event did manage to increase her exposure here. I enjoyed her 2nd single Boys & Girls. Fun and cherry. OMG, She's so cute. =) with the British slang.



Ms Lott Live in Malaysia
The best pic that I have since my lousy
Nokia phone camera sucks when taking pic at nite.

Next on stage was Hoobastank.
Don't really dig their new stuff. But lead singer Doug is very Asian looking. LOL.
Crawling In The Dark really got the crowd pumping. It sounded good. If you ever need a reason to love Hoobastank, seriously, you can't go wrong with The Reason. Best song ever by them. Doubt they can top that. Everyone was singing along with the band. Awwww.. what a moment. The aftermath of a great song. *Clap Clap Clap*



Doug of Hoobastank.
Nice outfit and hair. Love the hair.


Up next was The All-American Rejects.
I think their appeal is the biggest for last night even even though it was Kasabian who close the show. The Indian Guy who stand next to me started getting excited. He just stand there motionless during all the other artists suddenly got excited and started shouting when AAR is on stage. LOL. Its like someone switch on the party mode. AAR started off with Dirty Little Secrets which get everyone pumped up for their show. Tyler is covered with glittery powder. I don't have clue about why he wants to do that. LOL. He was kinda dramatic during his performance though. I Wanna is AWESOME!!!!! Love that song. Ugh. They managed to squeeze like 4 songs from their new album, When the World Comes Down from 7 songs they performed. I was hoping for Paper Heart but no such luck. I got Swing Swing though. Satisfied. It Ends Tonight is really really good. Oh, how I love that song. The ending song, Gives You Hell is just plain catchy. Everyone is singing along. The mass appeal of a bloody catchy song is so unresistable. You have to sing-along, especially the chorus.
*Don't have pic since the phone battery died on me, Boo! Lousy Nokia* :-/

The closing act, Kasabian is effin AWESOME!!!!
Gosh, again, is it me or that most of Kasabian song is made for massive crowd stadium anthem? They sounded damn great LIVE! Was totally impressed by them. It's more better than listening to the CD. Arghh.. the energy being in a live concert. Priceless! I personally think they owned it even though some of the crowd did leave after AAR. It's their lost. No doubt about it. How can you not love Kasabian? UHH-MEH-ZINGGG!!!

Kicking things off with Vlad the Impaler, 1st single of their new album, West Ryder Pauper Lunatic Asylum. I love it. Gosh. It was so energetic. The lead singer is effin gorgeous. Love the preppy London style. LOL. Again, they are effin great live. SERIOUSLY! OMG. Usually the lead singer is the one who owned the vocal in every aspect of the song but Kasabian is different from the rest I guess. I love their backing vocals as much as their lead vocal. The song would sound so much different without the cohesiveness of everyone, drums, bass and all.



Songs list for the performance, if I'm not wrong but definitely not in this particular order - Underdog, Shoot The Runner, LSF, Where Did All The Love Go, Empire, Club Foot and Fire. I did not catch their encore performance since I gotta run before everyone is leaving at the same time and stuck in a massive traffic jam. Seriously thank god for the lead singer is all cleared out by the doctors for H1N1 virus. It would be such a bummer if they canceled their show last night.

Long Live KASABIAN! The All-American Rejects, Pixie Lott, Raygun, Hoobastank too.

Thanks MTV for such a massive event in Malaysia.
Weeeeeeeeeee....

p/s: In your face for those who sells off their tix last min, you know I'm talking about you, noobie Jon.

Owh, the show premieres on MTV Asia Friday, August 28, 2009 Friday @ 9pm (MY), 8pm (SG/HK). Check out the fabulousity of the acts mentioned above. LOL!

MTV World Stage Live In Malaysia

Do any of my few readers know about this? (Don't have much reader ^.^ but for those who read my blog, THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!)

MTV World Stage Live in Malaysia


Kasabian

is headlining the show with
The All-American Rejects,

Pixie Lotts
, Hoobastank

and Boys Like Girls.



None of the acts above is my faves but I do dig the The All-American Rejects.

Paper Heart is so cute, Swing Swing & Move Along is just brilliant and catchy and It Ends Tonight is a beautiful rock ballad that I really dig. And the latest stuff by them which I really dig is I Wanna and Gives You Hell. Insanely catchy.

Kasabian's Fire is good but that is the only song that I know from them before this. Currently, I'm listening to all the acts songs especially Kasabian and The All-American Rejects stuff. Pixie's Mama Do and Boys & Girls should be entertaining enough but I doubt that many Malaysian know who the heck is she. Hmm. Hoobastank's The Reason is at one time, very effin popular in Malaysia. Overplayed by the Malaysian radio at that time. I don't really care much about Boys Like Girls cos they only have one nice song, which I can't really recall the name right now. =P

It would be fantastic IF Snow Patrol, Kings of Leon, Adele, Little Boots, La Roux, Leona Lewis, Paolo Nutini, Lily Allen or The Killers can make it. Jason Mraz is here last March but I don't mind having him again anytime soon. He's fab! Incredibly GREAT LIVE! GOOD OLD TIMES.

Owh, any recommendations of what songs I should listen by all the acts especially by Kasabian? After googling them for more info, I'm currently digging Shoot The Runner, LSF, Club Foot and Empire.

BTW, this is the 2nd time MTV Asia is having a huge event in Malaysia.
The first time is the MTV Asia Awards 2008 which I'm dying to go but couldn't get any tixs for it. The fact that the event have Leona Lewis, Super Junior, Pussycat Dolls, The Script, JabbaWockeeZ and and The Click 5.
Great list huh? For me it is. I'm more excited about this event that the current one. Meh, I sounded like some ungrateful *sshole~

One thing for sure is that I my tix here with me.
The thing is, I'm not sure whether I'm going or not. Transportation problem.
I'm hoping for the best since my supposedly good friend sold off his tix cos he needed the money. =.="

Apparently some people are making money from the tix since the MTV event is FOC if you are a telco subscriber. All you need to do is just register and redeem your tix in the nearest tix outlets. Seems like the FOC tix are done. And those who can't get the tix is paying substantial amount of money for the FOC tix.

Highest asking price: RM600! *rolling eyes* Doubt she'll manage to sell it off. LOL.

OK, nuff' ranting.
If I'm going. Woohoooooo... It's gonna be a blast for sure!
If not then too bad. :-/

SuJu + SNSD

I just realized that Super Junior is the most played/scrobbled artist in my iTunes though its highly inaccurate since I started using iTunes on 31 May 2009. LOL.

I'm not really surprised by this actually since I know my tendency to replay anything that I LOVE over and over again til I got bored with it eventually.
All I can say, few songs survived during this "torture" of my overplaying. XD

If I like more than 4/5 songs in an album.
I know I love it and have the need to rave about it.
I'm so hard to please ^.^ since I'm more to a singles kinda guy.

The thing is,
I just want you all to know that I really love Super Junior's 3rd album.




Super Junior
Sorry, Sorry.


I don't understand Korean at all.
BUT that doesn't really stop me from enjoying this album.

How can you not LOVE Sorry, Sorry (the single), It's You, Why I Like You, Monster, Heartquake, Dead At Heart, Love U More and Shining Star.

My love for Super Junior is purely because of the music since I have no idea who is who except for the few recognizable one such as Siwon, Shindong, Sungmin and Kyuh yun. 4 out of 13, not bad la hor. =)

Another album that I find myself really having a great time listening to:


Girl's Generation
2nd Mini Album - Tell Me Your Wish.


Even though there is only 6 songs in this album,
I already love 4 of it so this is like an automatic move up to the category of great stuff!
Listening to them can be so uplifting sometimes.

Boyfriend, Etude, Girlfriend and Genie is just pure pop goodness.
I don't get the mini album concept, why do you want to release a mini album when you can release a full album? *hmmm*

Anyway,
I can identify most of the SNSD girls tho.
Pretty girls that know how to sing and dance?
I'm sold.
Their video can be so adorable at times.
Gee and Genie? <3
Fav Soshi = Tiffany and Yoona.

Supposedly,
TVXQ
is the most famous group in Korea and Japan right now,
but seriously, I don't get them at all...
The song is meh, the boys is okay.
What/Where is the appeal?
Can anyone tell me? I'm just curious. =)

Oh, it's in the running for the "I-don't-understand-what-are-you-singing?" category with Shakira's She Wolf.
Is this a new trend or what?

Paolo Nutini -Coming Up Easy


I don't understand what is the deal with the rabbit-man.
But I love the song though. Love his voice.

Thanks to PopJustice and Ken from TheBeatReview.
I found this gem.

Erik Hassle - Don't Bring Flowers



LOVE IT!
I'm not impressed with the video though.
Ergh.
Those artists need to put more effort in making nice Music Video.

Speaking of MV, the nominees list of VMA '09 is out.
I'm rooting for Gaga, of course.
Beowulf is not my thing even though the Single Ladies is not bad.
She does look like a scary drag queen in the video.

Ulu Gombak

Ehem, I just got back from my co-curriculum - Facilitator course which includes a 2 days 1 night stay in Ulu Gombak. -=Read: Outdoor activities=-
The thing is, I don't normally like this kinda stuff.
Getting dirty?
Urgh. :S Seriously..

But the thing is....
Today, approximately 9.55am, (?)
Er.. I'm not sure of the time, but roughly around that time la.. haha..
I got soaked from the belly down =P in a MUD POOL going through a section of the jungle trekking activities.
Mind you, I'm surrounded by thorny plants.
(Got prick by it eventually)
So you can't really hold on to anything at all.
All you can do is to move your feet~ and keep yourself from getting sucked in by the mud pool.
Fuh, it sounded so damn effin extreme. (Syok Sendiri, read:getting high by yourself). LOL.

The part where we reach the river and clean up our self. Water is so clean and COOL!
Priceless.
Totally understand why people love to mandi sungai now!
Met some new friends there.
Everyone is so chill even though we got bloody muddy and dirty.
Plus the lecturer is so damn effin funny. LOL.
Oh, FPL missed out the mud pool activity but seriously I think that's her lost.
It was so fun. The feeling of getting soak and stuck in a mud pool.

I know I feel great during that time and feeling way better after manage to overcome all of it.

The jungle trekking activity today totally change my perception.
I think I need to get out and get dirty more!
Now I can't wait for all the pics! Haha, gonna be hilarious!
Those awkward moments in the mud pool and few of the challenges. LOL.

Oh, the fact I can cuci mata there today is just a plus. Ahhhh, thank God.

Great companies.
Great activities - The late night Sketch and Songs performance!
Great Mud Pool!
Great riverside hang out.
Great man-made waterfall. (A small but nice one)
Great FOOD!!!
(The caterer is seriously good, kalah those kenduri wedding few times kaw kaw.
Nasi Briyani for lunch on both days. Nasi Lemak Sambal Sotong and Nasi Goreng Kampung for Breakfast and Sup Kambing for supper, Geng hor?)
We did paid RM100 for all the foods, paperwork, accommodations and stuffs tho.
Totally worth it!

Oh,
Facilitator - PASS!
Yay!
(No one actually fail in the co-curriculum course, except if you don't really attend the class like many times).


I feel so good right now.
Even though I'm physically tired but I'm satisfied mentally after the past few hectic weeks.
