Cebu's Dancing Inmates Performing Jai Ho!

Two years ago they made waves with their performance of Michael Jackson's Thriller among many other jaw dropping dance numbers and Cebu's dancing inmates made the news again with their very entertaining performance of Slumdog Millionaire's Academy Award winning song Jai Ho!. Yes, they are dancing the original version not the pop version with The Pussycat Dolls. They even have their own version of Latika and Jamal. I really applaud the people behind CPDRC for bringing new life to these inmates. It's really great to see that these prisoners instead of engaging with brawls are spending their time rehearsing for their dance performances! It's a good way to exercise and their lives are somewhat rejuvenated because of this. And they really dance well, inggit ako! haha

Listen to Radio Radio by Brooke White!

I know that in the 7th season of American Idol the two Davids are the stars of that season. Their concert here in the Philippines was a success. But neither of the two got my attention of that season but the fifth placer Brooke White! I really like her voice and her personality, she seems sweet and fun to be with. She is actually my third favorite American Idol alumnus of all time (next to Kelly Clarkson and Elliot Yamin). I know she may not get the success of Kelly, Carrie, Daughtry or the Davids but I'm hoping she would have a good enough post-AI career and seems like she is on the right track. She will release her post-AI album HIGH HOPES AND HEARTBREAK on July 21, 2009! Man, I hope somehow that CD will be available here in the Philippines!
Anyway, listen to her first single from the album which she premiered today, the title is RADIO RADIO and I really think this song is very RADIO FRIENDLY :D
Wishing all the best for Brooke :)

Tweaking

Welcome to the "semi-revamped" forg files!

I decided to make some little changes in the layout to refresh this blog because the look of this remained the same for 18 months already haha. However, I've been using this template since January 2008 and frankly I really prefer it this way, just simple and easy to use for a not-so techno savvy person like me, so I just made some changes that won't affect the layout that much like changing the colors and "rebranding" the sidebar. I hope you like the new look but I could take criticisms though as long as it is not defamatory haha (may ganun hehe).

***

It's June already. And for the 1,000th time TIME FLIES!
We are nead midway for 2009 already!

Today, I will take a small step towards a change in my life. It's risky but I have to do it, if I do it the right way this small step would be soon a huge leap.
I'm having butterflies in my stomach as I type this but I'm ready. I hope it would work out. I really hope so.

Goodbye Pushing Daisies

Thank you to 2nd Avenue, the channel that airs Pushing Daisies here in the Philippines, for airing the last three episodes of the show ahead of the US airing (The last three episodes , which they junked airing last year when the network canceled it,will air in the US starting this week). I was really sad when the show was canceled last year. Two years ago, I was really blown away with its pilot episode and became a fan instantly. It started strong in the US but its first season was cut short to nine episodes because of the US Writers' Strike. They went off the air for nine months and when they returned it had a significant drop in the ratings ultimately leading to its cancellation. Season 2 only had 13 episodes. so over all the show only had 21 episodes for its entire run, which is just one season for a regular US TV series. Really sad. I love the magical, quirky world of the show. I love Ned and Chuck's love story. I love Olive's goofiness (plus her musical numbers were really awesome) and Emerson's sarcasm is hilarious. For some, the show is just too over the top and too sweet but it really worked for me. It's very comforting to watch. The producers say that the show will be revived through comics ala Buffy, The Vampire Slayer but for me nothing beats seeing it on TV. I love the actors and how the story is played out. The 'de facto' series finale aired earlier and well obviously the episode was not meant to be a series finale however I really appreciated how the production made it possible to provide closure for the last few scenes of the episode. It provided us some resolution for some storylines but there are still questions left untold SPOILER ALERT like what happened to the fathers of Ned and Chuck, the reason why Ned had that "skill" in the first place ,and although we know that Ned and Chuck will stay together I still want to know if they could still manage to "touch" each other someday. The last episode focused on the story of Chuck's aunt and mom and for me their story is the one that went full circle. It was a very touching story nevertheless. And I'm glad it did not end on a cliffhanger!
And the last few line delivered by the narrator ( I would really miss hearing his voice ) were so spot on.

Although the show ended not own its own terms, I'm still glad I experienced watching this show. Maybe this show is ahead of its time but truly this one show that belongs to the Brilliant-But-Shortlived- Classics.

The Nation's Current LSS

I don't want to discuss about the sensationalized sex video circus here in the Philippines but I can't help but talk about an offshoot of this scandal: The sudden rise of the song CARELESS WHISPER!
I'm sure 8/10 of Filipinos are singing/humming the song whether consciously or not.
The song was used by two people involved in the scandal for a rehearsal for a TV show and on that video they wore skimpy outfits and,well, the dancing rehearsals was a bit too hot to handle so to speak haha. Initially, this was the supposed "video scandal" but its pretty much R-18 level but of course months after the real XXX videos came out. What a twist of fate the message of the song somewhat mirrored what happened to the people involved in the scandal. (If you notice I refuse to drop names because I'm so sick with them already, they're all over the news already even overshadowing more important news!)

Anyway, some information on the song, it was released in 1984 by George Michael and it hit number one in the Billboard Hot 100 and considered one of the most successful songs of the 1980s.
But for us, this song will be forever be identified with the scandal and symbolizes how we get so attached or involved with this nasty dirty scandals. As expected, this song has been receiving significant airplay these days, I think I heard it like 10 times today from jeeps to buses to stores and households I pass by.
.
Also this year rock band Seether released a cover of this song, which is an excellent version of it, but it did not received any airplay here in the Mega Manila stations but maybe now that the original version is extremely popular it could gain attention .
.....or maybe not since the original will leave a special part for the people. Recent events immortalized this song. Its funny and disturbing at the same time.

Bullets: This Week's Billboard Hot 100

• Charice's Note to God debuts at #44, too bad it missed the top 40 but hey at least it charted but too bad it will fall out next week since the song is not selling well anymore this week in the digital songs download scene. Sad. At least she charted
  

• Several new entries from American Idol 8 as expected. I'm a bit annoyed with that since most of the studio versions of their performances will fade fast anyway and their entrance of the charts forced some songs to go down and some go recurrent ahead of its time. But hey that's the rule. The coronation song "No Boundaries" debuts at #11, way low from last season's #3 bow for The Time of My Life but at least it was higher than season 6's "This is My Now" #15 debut and peak. Ironically, when AI stopped releasing physical CD singles for the coronation songs they failed to reach the top unlike the first five seasons which sals boost from the physical CD singles to push their songs to #1 (4/5 debuted at #1 and the one who didn't debut at #1 (Kelly Clarkson's A Moment Like This) made a huge leap to #1 anyway. So what does it say, huh?

• Despite the plethora of AI8 songs on the chart, two songs had better debut! The rendition of "Don't Stop Believing" by the cast of the upcoming comedy-musical US show GLEE (which I liked by the way) entered the chart at #4 while Linkin Park's New Divide from the OST of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen starts its chart life at #6. I like both songs and I'm glad with their performances

• Jason Mraz's I'm Yours spends its 58 week on the Hot 100. Could he beat the all-time record for longest staying on the Hot 100 ever? The record is 69 weeks on chart done by LeAnn Rimes for How Do I Live in 1997. Still a long way to go for I'm Yours but the song's current rank (at #27) is still high, it could make it! (The rule by the way is that if a twenty week old song drops out the top 50, if will go recurrent and dropped out the Hot 100 entirely)
  

Bullets: 21st Century Breakdown

I bought this CD last Sunday and it was worth the money! I'm not really a music critic so I will just give a rundown of my thought about the album.

• I think this is better than American Idiot which is also a great album for me!
• I love the division of songs per act!
• Listening to the CD is a musical journey
• My favorite act is ACT III: Horsehoes and Handgrenades

Favorite tracks per act:

• ACT I (Heroes and Cons): ?Viva La Gloria!
• ACT II (Charlatans and Saints): Restless Heart Syndrome
• ACT III (Horsehoes and Handgrenades): 21 Guns

My over all Top 5:

1. Restless Heart Syndrome
2. ?Viva La Gloria!
3. 21 Guns
4. 21st Century Breakdown
5. American Eulogy (Mass Hysteria/Modern World)

• Know Your Enemy sounds very different from the rest of the tracks but maybe because I've heard that song a lot of times already I still like the song though and it was a good choice for first single its catchy enough to help gain interest for the album.
• American Eulogy is the "Jesus of Suburbia" of this album, the structure of the song is very complicated and exciting
• The art for this album is really good.
  

Remember Aqua?

I admit it I really like this European pop group of the 90s "Aqua". Yes, the songs were very cheesy and,yes, campy but I was 10 then, their music appealed to me haha. Doctor Jones, My Oh My, and of course the classic Barbie Girl haha. . But their best song arguably is the ballad Turn Back Time which we saw a different side of them. I have their album 'Aquarium' on cassette tape. Anyway, its been almost a decade since they broke up but,to my surprise, I found out today they are reuniting this year for a tour and they have a "comeback single" for the release of their Greatest Hits compilation. The title of the song is "Back to the 80s". The song is catchy and I like this part of the song:
Back to when Michael Jackson's skin was still black

The Upset

Filipino director Brillante Mendoza wins Best Director for this year's Cannes Film Festival. This was clearly an upset and a shocker especially that his movie Kinatay received mixed reviews and film critic Robert Egert even called it the worst movie ever shown at Cannes. Mendoza beat renowned film makers for the award. Even though I haven't seen the film I'm sure the judges might have seen something special for him to bag the award. Based on the mixed reviews, the movie I think is polarizing, its just hate it or love it, nothing in between. Anyway, a win is a win! Too bad this news did not get that much buzz here since the Philippine media is still not over the celebrty sex scandals. As a friend said this win is of the same level with Pacquaio's victory but well sadly this is not something the regular Pinoys would really care, maybe if an actor won, it might get more buzz plus Brillante is not really a popular director. I admit I only knew him last year when his film Serbis made it also as Cannes.
Anyway, I believe somewhere Lino Brocka is smiling with his victory.

1/4

If I were to believe the article posted in Wikipedia, I guess I am having a quarter life crisis, which is a bit premature since I think I am too young for that. But looking over the characteristics of people experiencing this life crisis, there are many items that I could RELATE to! Here are the characteristics mentioned in the Wikipedia article with the for some items I feel strongly about.

• feeling "not good enough" because one can't find a job that is at one's academic/intellectual level
• frustration with relationships, the working world, and finding a suitable job or career
• confusion of identity
  
• insecurity regarding the near future
• insecurity concerning long-term plans, life goals
• insecurity regarding present accomplishments
• re-evaluation of close interpersonal relationships
  
• disappointment with one's job
• nostalgia for university, college, high school or elementary school life , particularly college
  
• tendency to hold stronger opinions
• boredom with social interactions
• loss of closeness to high school and college friends high school, sadly yes
  
• financially-rooted stress (overwhelming college loans, unanticipatedly high cost of living, etc.)
• loneliness
• desire to have children too young to think about that
  
• a sense that everyone is, somehow, doing better than you

Basically, it all boils down to INSECURITY!
I really hope that I get through with this. Life after graduation has been so rough for me. I will not give up, I will continue to search for what will make me feel fulfilled and at the same time learn when and how to be contented.

Nostalgia Fit: Childhood Movies

The following list will feature foreign movies first. There were so many local movies I watched before as a kid it will be so hard to narrow it down, so I'll save that for another blog entry haha. Anyway, the following were the first movies the pop into my mind when I answered the Facebook application on "movies you grew up on". I mostly watched this movies on VHS and on their TV airings.

Back to the Future series

- We had a VHS marathon of this trilogy one Lenten season. Good thing we did this on marathon because if we watched this on the cinemas it would be so bitin because they end the movies with cliffhangers! I was really fascinated with time traveling and well we are near 2015, the year featured in the movie where the world is so high-tech haha.

Home Alone


- I watched this on TV during Christmas season. I could not remember which channel aired this though. I love the antics of Macauly Culkin's character. This was such a fun movie to watch Culkin was adorable, sort of sad how he had messy life growing up.

The Land Before Time series

- There were so many movies under this franchise but the first one would be special to me haha. I watched this through VHS, I actually don't know anything about this movie when I picked this up on a video rental store and told my brother to have this on the tapes we would rent that day and I really adored this movie, I think I was even close to tears for some of the scenes haha.

Mrs. Doubtfire

- I watched this on GMA 7. I was really impressed with Robin William's performance here and the story was very touching anyway. I was sad that in the ending though but when I grew up, I realized it was good ending afterall because it did not give false hopes and was at least close to reality with broken marriages.

Baby's Day Out

- The movie is so cute, the baby is just so adorable haha.

Joe's Apartment


- The cockroaches were very gross but also adorable albeit in a very freaky way haha.

The NeverEnding Story

- You know what I don't really remember exactly the story of this movie but I will always watch it on Million Dollar Movies on ABS CBN because they air this a lot. I was very impressed with the special effects here. I guess that's why I don't remember the story because when I watched this back then I was more focused with the visuals haha.

Sister Act

- "I will follow you...." My LSS back in the day because of this movie that was also aired a lot on ABS CBN when I was a kid

101 Dalmatians

- I dreamed of collecting all 101 dalmatian toys of McDonald's Happy Meal, I only got to 12 haha.

Titanic

-Of course I would not left this out, this was truly phenomenal! Benta pa nga sa akin yung tagalized Titanic excerpts inserted by 93.9 WKC sa My Heart Will Go On haha.

Nostalgia Fit: These Things Defined an Era

I'm really a sentimental freak! I know things change, we need to move on. But it's always nice to look back on the things that you grew up with, most of this stuff are almost gone but they will be in my heart forever, haha how mushy! Reminiscing makes us giddy. It makes you smile, it will bring good memories. Nostalgia is a precious feeling.
Komiks

- I know the Pinoy komiks is still alive as the success of Pugad Baboy, Beerkada, and Kiko Machine showed but the weekly komiks is something I really miss. I'm a big fan of Filipino Funny Komiks for Children and my family use to buy a lot of komiks back in the day. This was the past time of the common folk back in the day. There was a komiks for everybody, for kids, for moms, for teens, for men. A lot of great stories were told there!

WalkMan and Cassette Tapes



- This was the iPod before haha. I still regret that my severe use of my walkman led to its destruction. Through Walkman I became a radio fanatic, both FM and AM!
Meanwhile, cassette tapes were the cheap way for us to purchase records, now people get music for free through illegal downloading [which is killing the industry sadly]. Album sales were high in the Philippines back in the day mainly because of cassette tapes. I treasure my collection of tapes, they are hard to find memorabilia already haha!
I also use to record songs played on radio through cassette too haha. Ever heard of mix tape? The mix tape was the old school way of today's burning a CD :D

VHS



- The VHS player, the rewinder with the goofy sound playing when you rewind a tape. We use to visit the video shops a lot back in the day to rent movies on VHS. Well, the DVD is a lot better of course compared to VHS but through VHS a lot of homemade family videos were made. We have one too, the video coverage of my sister's 18th birthday debut party 13 years ago. Too bad we couldn't view it anymore because our VHS player is broken already.

Song Hits



- Today it's now easy to Google a song's lyrics and chords. Before, buying songhits was my way to know the lyrics of the songs (guitar chords for my brother). I always wait for a songhits to feature an album I just bought recently on cassette tape. They were also my source for music news and some also featured music countdowns and profiles of radio DJs. There are still songhits on sale until now but I guess it is not as popular as before.

Brick Game

- This was the PSP back in the day. I'm not really into gaming but I was addicted with playing Brick Games in the past haha. I think we had 3 brick game toys one for each of us brothers. All are gone now. It's a very simple game but it was fun playing it! Less is more sometimes

Charice to make Chart History!

Charice perfomed her single "Note to God"on Oprah today and as expected she is blasting on the US charts! I was very sure she will get a huge boost, after all a performance on Oprah made Leona Lewis' Bleeding Love a success in the US and Josh Groban's Noel the best selling album in the US in 2007 despite being a CHRISTMAS album. But I did not expect that Charice's single will do this well, see the numbers below:

As a chart geek and a Filipino, I'm so thrilled that Charice's international debut single is doing well. I'm so excited for her, she will chart on the US Billboard Hot 100 this week for sure! The first Filipino to do since I believe Jocelyn Enriquez 12 years ago with A Little Bit of Ecstacy and Do You Miss Me 12 years ago. She will definitely make chart news this week. I'm very excited. It's really amazing how YouTube paved the way for her to reach this kind of success. Ayos!
