Talent Quest'05 Rocks! Good job Xiaolei!

Woooohooooo!!! Just went to Talent Quest '05....it really rocks! It's the definitive singing competition...best one I've ever seen..period! All of the contestants are soooo talented, I think that the judges really had a hard time judging...Among the best of them was this Malay guy who sang a song by All for One..can't recall for sure the song title...but he's gooood....with the 假音 抖音 轉音 and all the fancy stuff...if you close your eyes you'll probably think it's a voice of a black singer....so soulful and strong while being so gentle...haha...do I sound like a girl?

Compared to 心情溶劑 which I saw a few weeks ago, this was really way better, was actually quite surprised at Singapore's local talent....they are pretty good! Won't be surprised if some of them would be able to cut an album in a few years time...there were also a few singers from 木船民歌餐廳 as guest performers as well as S'pore Idol finalist Maia Lee. With talent like these,dunno why S'porean girls like stupid Tw boybands like 5566....haa...although they do help to cheat young S'porean girls of their parent's hard earned money...I really don't like 5566...oh and F4 for that matter as well.....sissies.....I don't watch tv much so I don't know what's the big fuss Maia Lee is about...but hey she's a real good performer...raspy husky voice...carries herself wif an air of confidence....if she's 10cm taller and a little prettier I think she'll be the next big thing...she sang a couple of english songs and Jay Chou's song "借口".....In the group category there was this group that really impressed me...there's this guy who could imitate a boombox reallly well...think that really impressed the judges...as well as their lively performance...this group went on to win the group category....Worth noting is this guy from NTU...real talented...he entered like 3 songs for the song writing competiton and was the guitarist for several other people....see him on stage until sian already....and the songs he wrote has catchy tunes and meaningful lyrics....definitely someone to watch...All in all the show was a little too long but every item was so good....Xiaolei, good job as organizer! It really went smoothly and was worth every cent...in retrospect if I knew the show was so good I should've asked more of my friends to go....Was probably one of the most happening events for me this sem...ha...prob. have no more excuse not to study since I've had enuf relaxation...another sleepless week ahead...lol...
