tank

this tank is so comfy i dont wanna take it off! hey i'm watching aaaaaaaamerican idol! i was surprised to see david archuleta singing Dont Let The Sun Goes Down on Me which is my personal favorite. It was in the american idol history, as a true viewer / fan of american idol, (haha, filzaa), i remember Clay Aiken of Season 2, singing this song with so much victory of winning. If you watched season 2, you might know how Clay Aiken sings, i mean his style of singing. His face resonates the true meaning of optimism, that gives a sense of victory of winning. He might be in the second place, but his album made it to the top, even leaving Ruben Studdard (or however you spell his last name) behind.
Ok, enuf talk about Clay Aiken, i was his fan. I literally begged my dad to buy my his cd (which wasn't out yet at that time in jak), in singapore. My senior, who was also my bro's friend at that time (btw, this was 6th grade) and i were screaming and talking talking in the cafetaria alone, haha. Because of Clay of course. But it was so funny, she hugged me badly when i gave a her a poster of Clay Aiken, haha. So there i was, humiliated by mr. clay aiken.
i grew up listening to queen and a little bit of michael learns to rock, sicne my dad always turn it on. I listened to Air Supply, but i dont really like it tho. as i grew up, pop music became HUGE. And so i started listening to backstreet boys, a little bit of westlife, Spice girls etc. And as my brother grows older, i began listening to his kind of music. But i found out that my true love was in pop music. So i started listening to them again. But one thing, i never enjoy j-pop, k-pop, chinese pop or whatever, no. I like filipino artist lately, they have good music, it's just that i couldnt understand a word, haha. Now, i figured that my true love is in blues, swingjazz music. I dont enjoy some modern jazz (those jazz that's in rite now), and i cant figure out why. It started when my dad bought this jazz Robbie Williams album, Swing like you mean it, probably around 2003, i guess. And i began to love those catchy tunes. Now, i'm listening to Tony bennet, Jane Monheit, Michael Buble (his jazz song covers), Frank Sinatra, and jazz Robbie Williams of course. Apart from that, i like soul artists. Amy winehouse, Stevie Wonder, and George Benson, also that new artist Duffy, i like her too. Elton John is a great one too. Haha, sometimes i dont like to search on some new artist, coz it's better not to forget the old, than trying to dig the new ones, because i mean they will rise sooner or later. But dont get me wrong, i do like the new ones too, i love them, but the ones who made it to the charts now. I like both, and a little bit of everything.


thank you for reading my boring, wasteful, land of life blog-post.
