Watched the countdown @ vivocity on channel 5.
The entire performance was crap.
Except for perhaps Hady's performance.
Rest was mediocre at best. Gurmit did the rendition of Craig David's new single. It sounded okay but I heard more of Craig's voice than Gurmit's.
The Getai performance. Well... Lets just say I switched channels immediately.
The winner of live the dream was also bullcrap. What was his name again? Fandhi? Whatever. He sand Lovestoned/I think she knows by Justin Timberlake. Boring vocals. Almost fell asleep while listening to it. The only time when I really listened to the song was when the guitar solo came in and he stopped singing. Lol.
By Definition was quite boring also. I got thrilled over nothing when I heard that some band actually had the balls to attempt Linkin Park songs. It turned out to be just as bad as the previous performances.
If you had watched the countdown, compare to Linkin Park performing those songs live in concert. I can assure you its totally different. LP will get people on their feet yelling encore.
By Definition will have gotten me to throw rotten vegetables at them.
Darren Tan then sang his new single from his debut album. It sounded okay, but nothing spectacular.
Same for Taufik. Although I forgot what song he sang. Nothing special to mention of.
Hady sounded okay and was the only one that didn't put me to sleep.
However, by far the worst performance WAS THE RENDITION OF INTO THE NIGHT BY SANTANA!!
WTF MAN!
A BRILLIANT SONG WAS TURNED INTO A JOKE BY THEM. KEYS WERE OFF, GUITAR SOLO WAS JACKSHIT AND EVERYTHING WAS AN EMBARRASSMENT.
Honestly, I wondered how did they even manage to find a way to ruin such a song. I even uploaded it on my blog recently. They made a joke out of Carlos Santana. And Chad Kroeger, the vocalist.
All in all, horrible performance. Horrible countdown party. Horrible way to end 2007.
Having said that, 2008 is finally upon us. Any hopes of having a bright start to the new year instantly dispersed when I allowed my mom to talk me into cutting my hair today.
I swear to God, this is the last time I am ever listening to what they say. My mom always threatens me by saying that Dad is angry. But now, I don't give a fuck.
And what is worse is that, my hair now is damn short. Short like fuck. My long hair now is replaced by hair a quarter of the original length. Sad eh?
I have told myself before that I wouldn't listen to them anymore, but I guess I am not one who easily bears grudges. Now, I do. Starting from today, I am ignoring them. No communications whatsoever. Sounds like teenage angst? Nah. I call it fighting fire with fire. The only way you can fight morons is by igorning them. Logical? :)
Haha. Sorry for such a long post. Have not written such a long one in ages. But its a little hard to pent these frustrations to my heart.
"This is your cue now to show sympathy by saying awww."
Awww.
Seriously, I admire the lifestyles of some of my guild members. They live with total control of their lives. Not going to say who, but pxu members should know who I am referring to. Their parents don't constantly nag or force them to do stuff they don't want to do. They have all the freedom in the world to do anything that they want.
But I don't. And I will do anything to get that type of freedom.
God, save me from the only 2 idiots in my life.
MY MOM AND DAD.
