NOTE: These two YouTube videos were recommended to me by Duh Roads.
Melanie Amaro singing Listen by Beyoncé
I wouldn't say this version is better than my favourite live version of Beyoncé's Listen but... it's still pretty darn good for an 18-year-old undiscovered singer. Less convicted, less angry, less feisty and less controlled... but somehow, more meaningful. Hmmm. Maybe it's cos anybody who's on X Factor just wants people to "listen", they want their "dreams to be heard", so the lyrics end up just seeming more meaningful. Haha. Maybe.
Caitlin Koch singing Stop In The Name Of Love by The Supremes
I SUPER LIKE THIS VERSION OF THE SONG! WAY MORE THAN I LIKED THE ORIGINAL! If she releases an iTunes Single of this song, I'd buy it. Yes, I'd be willing to PAY.
*blink blink*
Whoa. Did I just say that?
Maybe I should start watching
The X Factor USA 2011
on TV from now on.

– Trust me, I hate it as much as you do. Sigh.
So stop the feud. Quit cutting off your nose, and all your readers' noses, just to spite your face. Everyone loses while the one being spite-d wins.
ATTN: Melsong
– Huh? What talking you?
That Melanie Amaro girl is good. I got goosebumps when I heard her. And, I love Beyonce and Jen Hudson's duet for 'Listen'. Awesome vocal duets is my guilty pleasure, I scour Youtube for it all the time. ;)
I especially like Beyonce's ending to 'Listen' here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O4poK-jk2rE&feature=related.
ATTN: Melissa
– She's amazing, isn't she? Duh Roads and I agreed that she sings it even more effortlessly than Beyoncé! Haha. But of course, Beyoncé's control seems better lah.
Wah! I never heard that ending before! Super climax!!!
ATTN: Melissa
– Darn it, now I feel like karaoke-ing. -_-'''
Yeah, her control is excellent. But, she does too much of runs sometimes.
Righttttt..... The ending is my favourite. I like that version because of the ending. Syok-s!
Yeah, man! Eh, I'm coming back for Deepavali. Should reach PG Friday (October 22nd) late night. We. must. meet. up! Chats, karaoke and supper.
ATTN: Melissa
– Haha. I don't mind her runs. Just like how I don't mind Aguilera's runs. =p
And weekend susah laaa... I dunno if can. Will let you know.
Aguilera's runs are THE. BOMBZ! Love 'em!
We go on weekdays la. I'll be back for a week. :)
ATTN: Melissa
– Do you watch The Voice?
Week days sound AWESOME. =)
Nope, nope. What's that? :)
YAYS! I'll text you when I'm back. We shall meet-up then. I don't mean to boast, but I do have stories to share. :p
ATTN: Melissa
– It's a reality show that Christina is involved in. It's awesome.
WHOAAA... I love love love LOVE stories! Bring it lah.
I wants! Can we watch it together when I'm back? :D
Nows? :)
ATTN: Melissa
– It's over liao. Finale show already. Haha. You gotta stream it or download the episodes. The winner's real good though. I swooned a couple of times. =p
Ish. Boringness! >(
ATTN: Melissa
– You need to watch this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aSZ3YXdxJe4
GOODNESS ME! Soooooo good, I love it! We are doing this when I'm back! Next next Thurs. Can't wait! :D
ATTN: Melissa
– How? Turn the volume down low and pretend we're singing acoustic? Hahaha. I could do that, I suppose. =p
Yeah, babe - Old school! Shameless. :p Just like what we did for Get It Right. :DDDD
ATTN: Melissa
– I could get used to being shameless. =p
Me too! :DDD
ATTN: Melissa
– Did we set a date? I can't remember. :-/
Wah. Gai la you. Hahaha. We said Thursday, Oct 26th. I will definitely text you to remind you, probably the night before or the morning itself. BUT, I won't be driving down seeing that my hols is only for a week.
Can we do a date at Queens instead? :)
ATTN: Melissa
– Hahaha. Oh yeah yeah. Eh, why don't you come along for the Ken Ray karaoke session? It's that same week except on Tuesday. Then if want, can meet up again for Queens on 26th.
Paiseh la, babe. Not that close with all of them, then I go and sing. HAHA.
Why don't we do something different this time around? Dinner and movie at Queens? There's this new movie with Hugh Jackman in it (YUMMY!). I doubt I'll get to watch it before I leave KL this coming Friday. Two assignments due then. @_@ And both of 'em, they are design, writing and film editing assignments. Major babi.
