Singapore Idol rocks... Not Sylvester nor Iskandar Ismail and his crappy musical arrangements though... :P
Singapore Idol rocks my world! Firstly, Olinda and Taufik rocks tonight... Secondly, Sly sucks. But the show is quite good basically....
Olinda's voice was quite nice tonight... Her first song was well-known and she pulled it off real well cos her power was great, the second song by Oliver the sweet old lady wasn't as nice cos it wasn't
that famous, but hmm.. it was quite good as well... The last song was 80% fantastic cos Oli really can sing her high blasty full notes but here comes Iskandar Ismail's or Babes' arrangment whereby the ending was so sudden that I didn't realise the song ended until Oli kept silent for 3 seconds... And her last note was almost turning into a nice climatic ending but was stopped by the music accompaniment, which held last note for about 3 seconds... Pretty disappointing I guess.... I mean, the music in American Idol even had background singers or nice climatic endings and such, but the ones in S'pore Idol are so terrible and inferior... Aiyo, next season must sack Iskandar and Babes and replace with those in American Idol liao.... p.S: Oli should stop adding singlish into her words when she speaks.. Its totally unidolish.... :P
TAUFIK!!!! His 'Ain't no sunshine' was phenomenal, everything was great except for the fact that he closed his eyes 80% of the performance, but seriously, Taufik has the looks and poise of the idol when compared to oli and sly... Sly is just a pretty face to the girls and a nose screwer to the others...His second song was real flat, something that the remaining contestants should not have is pitching problems, but sigh... this is Singapore nevertheless... His third song wasn't very good cos his volume wasn't loud enough to accompany the shitty arrangement... That might not be his fault but since the judges felt it was good, I find it ok, so it's good
lor. Taufik
shld be in the finals and
will win the competition hands down if all works for him in 1st Dec... Good luckz!
sly... adjs. to describe his perf tonite.... Bad, sucky and pathetic... His tone is real nasal and forcing and his looks when singing is ugly and his volume is weak... total weakness... Similar to AI season 3, this guy resembles Jasmine, where all her perfs were nowhere when compared to Diana
nor Fantasia, which is Oli n taufik in this case... So, i guess if all his deaf and stupid fans fail to call below 5 times
each, we can
finally say byebye to Sly! Yahoo! :P Can't wait for the results tmr.... to see Sly out to be more specific... :D
Signing off,
