Talents, redundants, and dance : P

I wonder if you guys re-read your blogs. Well, yesterday, I had been re-reading my blog. Not the whole thing of course. Started from April 2006's entries. Reached one entry where I mentioned Frank Sinatra's song "It had to be you", which, when i was typing that entry, was being played on Windows Media Player. Why the emphasis on this particular song back then? Well, the lyrics hit me hard on my face, and the bruise's still there :P So I thought I should listen to that song again! Went to windows media player to search for that song. As i listened to it play, something struck me. The beginning tune sounds so familiar... FIR!!

Yeah, it sounds like one of the songs from FIR. Thought hard and i remembered the song title. So, I went to search for that song. Since "F.I.R." and "Frank Sinatra" both begin with F, they're in the same page. I played FIR's, yeah it sounds alike... played Frank's again... hmm... seriously very alike! Played FIR again, omg they're almost the same. Played Frank's again, ok they ARE the same. And what did I do while going through this whole process of double clicking here and there? I was laughing mad!! Hahaha.... Thought this discovery's funny. In the end, I spent quite some time amusing myself clicking these two songs repeatedly. Haha...

Actually, this isn't the first thing I found out about FIR being a copycat. The first "copy" was months ago. Haha.. Perhaps last year :P Not sure if all of you had heard of this japanese band called "do as infinity" (aka DAI). They're quite famous actually. Anw, in that band, there's 2 guys, and one female singer. They also play rock music.. soft rock? not sure if that's what you call them. :P It's not just this that seems alike. Sometimes, I find that Faye's style and look is a copy of the lady from DAI. Oh, and actually the band names seem kinda similar too. Do as infinity, Fairyland in reality. Sigh... why is it that mando-pop must be so cheap at times? But I still kinda like FIR, so well... hahaha... as long as they stop trying to act cool.

My favourite's still Mayday! But there's a possibility that they'll be leaving this industry soon. That's sad isn't it? Not that the crowd don't like them, but that they might voluntarily leave the industry. They're original! And crazy!! hahaha... they're a bunch of funny people. Unlike those useless boy bands with only their faces to show (or for some, their body) mayday has talent! I mean, look at say... 183 club. I bet that's the funniest of them all. Hahaha... My friend laughed at the band's name. They're called 183 club because their average height's 183. -_-" Alright, perhaps name's not that important an issue. But can they sing? *ahem* nope. hahaha...

There was this time, when I was watching a taiwanese entertainment show. Someone from ENERGY's co-hosting the show. So, they were supposed to have a singing competition (with a theme) among several celebrities invited, and including the hosts. He, the one from ENERGY, self-admitted that he can't sing! GOodness!! You're in a boy band and you can't sing?! What is this? o.O What's worse? He actually knows that he can't sing!! Hahaha... I guess pure talent's not that important anymore.

Talent! That brings me to the "next big thing" in singapore. You know, that dance competition. Yep, I think it'll be better than Singapore Idol. BUT! Can singaporeans appreciate those artsy dances? Or would we just go for hip hop or break dance? I guess this show would reveal more than just the talented dancers in Singapore. It might be able to show us Singaporean's taste and preferences, when it comes to dance. I really wonder how it'll be like... *excited* haha... But i'm more excited about the second season of "So you Think you can Dance"!!! ^^

I feel like Colbert now.. haha.. "dance" brings me to the next topic, which is, dance! hahaha... k lame. Went for dance practice today. Second time since the comeback. :) Good sign! Last week, I could feel that I've lost a lot of -- no, it's not weight, though i wish it is -- flexibility as I warmed up. But as i danced through the day, it got better. Today, of course it's better than last week, but i'm still not fully back yet. Surprisingly, my teacher asked me if I had been stretching at home. This question came as a surprise! What went through my mind...

"Oh no, is she trying to find out if i had been a lazy student? coz I hadn't been practising at all! Sharks! Wait... she seems quite happy, she must be expecting a positive for some reason..."

So in the end, I took a lot of turns and didn't really answer her question. :P hahaha.. but by listening to what I had said, most people would think that I had practised a little at home. hahaha.. Well, she asked that question because she found that my recovery's quite fast. Although I hadn't been dancing for weeks, I can still bend backwards and touch the ground etc. Well, I have to admit that my back's quite flexible, so it's pretty easy to "recover". Haha... so bhb :P But, my leg's not that well. Sigh... they're not as flexible. And I can't point well, which is really bad for a dancer. Ouch! I'm not that good afterall. haha..
