It has been long overdue to categorized my music related blogs based on genres. So here I am, further categorize my blogs based on the genres they belong. I reckon unlike me, most people prefer to listen to certain types of music they enjoy while for me, I enjoy a wide spectrum of what different [...]

YUI’s 2nd Album - Can’t Buy Me Love
May 30th, 2007 · 3 Comments · J Pop, Music Reviews
Readers of my website may remember how I discovered the Japanese singer YUI after watching the movie Midnight Sun and foretold that she is a new artist to look out for. I even went in great effort to import her first album “From Me To You” from HMV Hong Kong. Within one week of release, [...]

Linkin Park’s Minutes To Midnight - A Change For The Good … Or Not?
May 29th, 2007 · 2 Comments · Hard Rock & Metal, Music Reviews
Right after I bought LP’s new album from HMV, my buddy TK asked me, “So how’s Linkin Park’s new album? They sound the same right?”. The problem is if I am asked to give opinion on an album that I have hardly listened to, you will probably get an insignificant opinion. That night I answered, [...]

My First Trip To Bukit Timah
May 28th, 2007 · 6 Comments · Diary
My friend KF the branding consultant and his buddy WS are heading to Mount Kinabalu this coming June (best of luck buddy … you can do it!) and KF has invited me for a practice session at Bukit Timah - one of the nature reserves in Singapore. I was more than happy to train with [...]

Undon + Our Mission KJ + Nambantei
May 27th, 2007 · 1 Comment · Diary, Foreign, Movie Reviews
While Agent C is on overseas secret assignment (I honestly do not know of the nature of her trip except “business” and “take care of some family affairs”), Agent T has handed me a new assignment: go and find us a Korean or Japanese movie to watch this weekend. Roger that!
Agent T and I both [...]

Joanna’s This Crazy Life - A Decent Pop Album
May 26th, 2007 · No Comments · Music Reviews, Pop Rock & Alternative
One evening I wanted to play a different kind of music in my car. So I randomly pressed a disc number and when the music started, I was like … wait a minute, who is this artist? Four songs had passed and I still had no clue. Kind of scary because I did remember that [...]

Jordin Sparks - Finally Someone Whom I Support Made It
May 25th, 2007 · 12 Comments · I See I Write
(Erm … I apologize if this blog gets too “geek-ish” towards the end. I love watching reality shows such as America Idol because I love to decipher how voters think.)
I think by now anyone who follows the America Idol on TV should know that the 17 years old Jordin has won the competition. And if [...]

I Love Amazon.com + A Juncture In My Life (?)
May 24th, 2007 · No Comments · Diary
Next time you wish to buy a book from your favorite local bookstore, do yourself a favor (especially if the book is a hardcover). Go check out the price at Amazon.com first before parting your hard earned cash. I am now holding a book that is selling at Amazon.com for US$12. The same book costs [...]

Is It Going To Be Avril’s Best Damn Thing?
May 23rd, 2007 · No Comments · Music Reviews, Pop Rock & Alternative
I still remember when and where I bought the Canadian artist Avril Lavigne’s first record “Let Go”. It was at HMV Citilink back in 2002 and over the listening station I was impressed with her voice and music style from track one. Avril was 18 then and she was the youngest female artist to have [...]

Beyonce’s B’Day Deluxe Edition Finally Got Me
May 22nd, 2007 · 3 Comments · Hip Hop R&B, Music Reviews
I have this mentality when it comes to purchasing CDs. A legacy that is probably dated back in my days in UK. If there are three of more hit songs I like from an album, the album is worth buying. It is because the cost of one CD was roughly the same as three singles [...]
