Currently listening to: Kill Me In A Record ShopBeen watching/reading loads of BLG related stuff. Really interesting as well. I think BLG has a very good ability to write good stuff and catchy tunes that last. Think The Great Escape, mention it and i'm sure people will know at least the tune even if they don't know the title. Was listening to their demos on their upcoming album. (For those who wanna hear, just go type 'boys like girls heavy heart' in youtube.) It's really nice, the tunes especially Kill Me In A Record Shop. I know some people think BLG's really just like another band, common voice, headed to mainstream, nothing special but think about it, think PATD, yeah no doubt they can write good lyrics, tunes..hmm... maybe but the lead can't even sing. They suck live, that's a well-known truth. What's the point? ( No offence any PATD fans)
Another must-have for a band/artist is the X factor. What's the point in being so good but then you don't have that X factor or not be charismatic. If you can't capture the audience's attention, it's ain't quite a good thing, won't it? I don't sound bias right? If you think about it deeper and not just on the surface, there's some truth in whatever i just typed?
If you were even reading it in the first place.
I miss WWRY/Sivan/Mig/The band/The cast. Was just thinking about all the fun WWRY times. The first time i met the cast, it was quite a fan-idol thing, but slowly meeting them all, all of them recognising you, you talk more like friends than fan-idol relationship. Then going to HK with Julia which is by far the craziest thing i've ever done besides sneaking into an M18 show,
Sweeney Todd just to catch it on the big screen because it was Johnny Depp acting in it. Then remembering how Sivan and Mig actually friggin recognised me, thinking about how Stephen told i think Vanessa and Ashley that we're from Singapore. Really, never have i felt so proud to be a Singaporean besides the F1 thing that got praises from all over. Then watching the show with Julia, almost breaking the seat when i was bouncing so much on it when Matthew pointed and pointed at us, i think i was literally bouncing and i felt i was going to hyperventilate. Then when Mig had to kinda go low to like floor level, he stared at the audience, then me and Julia who were right in front of him, before getting up. OMG. Then curtain call when Sivan literally stared and smile and acknowledge that we were there and she saw us cuse the previous day at night when we met her at the stagedoor, she kinda sang the words 'it's tomorrow' which kinda shocked me. Ahh, the really nice/great/awesome times with international stars.
And i can't imagine how life would be like if i had never met Nat, Mae, Grace and Ros at the stagedoor of Esplanade in Singapore. It's amazing how you ever meet people. It's seriously in the most unthinkable way man. If i hadn't met Nat, i would never ever have started on the MiG stuff, if i had never met Mae, i'll never know so much more about BLG, if i hadn't met Grace, Ros, i would have never known so much about concerts and definitely not get those videos of BLG in the 987 studio. I still remember how Grace actually kinda identified me. I commented on one of Mig's post by saying i was the one who got hi-fived by him and she replied back to me and told me she knew who i was. Then told her about the stagedoor thing, that's how we met. Seriously, just like that. I told you it's unthinkable. For Nat, i still remembered me and Julia first went to the stagedoor together, then like we walked pass her, it was my first time meeting Grace and i didnt get her no so i didn't really remember how she looked like, i thought she were Grace, seriously! Then Pop aka Malcolm was the first to come out of the stagedoor and we wanted to approach him and kinda started talking. Madness. Mae, was when she was gonna meet Mig and was going to wait for him to help her so she just sat on the floor near the stagedoor and whadaya know, we started talking. It's unbelievable.
I doubt any of you read whatever that's above this line, quite hard to understand unless you've experienced thei insaneness yourself plus that's really one whole chunk of words without pics.Yepp, that's Meg Cabot, that author of quite a no of books. Accidentally saw her signing books and stuff at Borders at Wheelock.
So many videos, so little time
