YESSUUUUUU!!!! YISHIJIE GOT IN!!!!!
but today the performance is like a variety from downright lousy all the way to superb
B1
三月: i was just like she should simply stick to chinese. but anyway her voice is kinda unique i guess, but the performance wasn't all that impressive. but the arrangement of the song was pretty good actually, just i suppose she couldn't bring it out as well.
B2
兔子: they were just horrid can.. the drummer was like singing with her 假音which is so friggin obvious. then the lead vocals was like OMG i can't imagine how they got so far. image? maybe bahh.. but in terms of singing skills, they suck big time. maybe this time their voice were i little less than flat, but i still can't stand it. and the drummer is NOT zai.
B3
Screamm: they were ok i suppose. the first thing i noticed was the pre-performance video. the bassist actually highlighted his hair PINK!! then was they're all wearing GOLD! but one thing is i couldn't quite hear what the vocalist was singing/rapping during the fast song. and she went offtune for a few notes. but overall was ok i suppose.
B4
大风吹: i was quite wowed by their performance. OMG the drummer is zai la. she can rap while drumming and it didn't even go offbeat. that's what i call pro, not that tuzi's drummer, that sings flat. but anw DFC the drummer seriously good la. it's hard to rap that fast, add on the drumming. the vocalist also quite good, but i never get why his pronunciation while singing versus when talking is so different. when talking he sounds like he was wearing retainers.
B5
异世界: theirs was the best mann.. it was damn cool la. haha.. kunio's chinese is finally 听得懂. 70%, improve alot from the last time le la. kei and sam's voice are so nice when put together ^_^ the headbang part is the best actually. after the headbang, i was like "woah..kunio's hair still can stay in place arhh??" it's damn pro la. i bet he used plenty of hairspray. reminds me of ruki's chicken head hair. headbang dunno how much also not a strand out of place de.
B6
伍个人: actually i thought they were quite good, dunno why the judges so critical of them..but the drummer and violinist quite good lehh.. actually i still can't forget the prank that hiroshi played on the bassist. so funny la he. mastermind the whole thing still deny.
yay!! but ethe'Real's performance so exciting today.. i wanna rewatch!!! thank goodness they got into finals, if not i'll just stop watching the whole competition entirely.. I WANNA GO FINALS!! why must the damn finals be on the same week as our exams *cries* one more week then i can go watch mahh....

OMG!!!! SF2 was so seriously screwed i could strangle practically ALL of them, ok except maybe a few bands. like what is the freaking problem with their pronunciations??? if they're gonna perform a jap/korean song, the least they could do was get the pronunciation right!!!
B1
大风吹: omg!! what the hell is with his jap??? it's sounds totally not jap. when he sang chinese it was ok, i understand, but hell..the moment he sang jap i was like "wth is he singing??" i definitely wouldn't have thought it was jap if it wasn't for the romanji lyrics
B2
伍个人: they were generally not bad la. i think they deserve the judges top 3. but i just can't get his jap pronunciation errors out of my head. koko
ro becomes koko
ru(?!!) it's just plain comical to listen to it.
B3
森林帖: goshh... their jap officially suck big time. granted the vocalist has a really nice voice and the most consistent in the whole competition, but he should seriously do something about the pronunciation when he's singing another lang's song. what's with ana
ta turning into ana
na?? and yasashi
sa becoming yasashi
se?? it just downright doesn't make sense. esp the anata!!!
B4
异世界: i swear it's the only band of the night that can speak jap without errors, ok maybe one or two, but not obvious. but the jap is so much evidently better than ALL the rest. haha and i get the feeling that Kunio would have cut the chinese part out entirely if not for the requirements, like it's so obvious since only they sang 4 lines of chinese and the rest in jap, so it's like 70-80% of the song was in jap. but then, WHAT'S WITH THE GAYNESS OF THE GOLD PANTS!!! it's practically like the one that syou wore in cosmic world, skinny pants and GOLD!!! plus all that bling bling -continue later at special paragraph below-
B5
兔子: i'm so gonna flame them to the depths of hell mann.. their korean pronunciation is downright horrid. although i don't like korean language since i think they sound crude, but i'v listened enough to at least be able to tell that their pronunciation is definitely not korean, in fact they sounded like they're singing thai. and even if i don't, looking at the subs, their pronunciation more than deviate from the original. in fact, it's not even close. and would people friggin stop praising that drummer!! she's definitely not as good as everybody think. so what if she can sing while playing the drums? kai from gazette does that too, he does backup and there are no errors even while all that high difficulty drumbeats. and i bet nao can definitely do that too. so she's only that much, what's with praising her so much. and if anybody think they can sing, i'd say they definitely can't. if you were to listen carefully, they only sound like they're singing cause they have the rhythm from the instruments. minus of the intruments their singing is just FLAT!!!
B6
Screamm: if really have to say i don't think have much since they did pretty well tonight. just the vocalist voice range abit small. but somehow when she was singing, i thought she was singing spanish sometimes, esp when she sings the part "maria~, ave maria~" it's seriously sounds spanish. but it doesn't sound as destroyed as 兔子. at least their pronunciation more or less kept to the subs.
B7
三月: that band can just go burn from their performance tonight. they totally screwed up and it makes me more than pissed since 1. it's a NANA(!!!) song, 2. it's a Yuna Ito's song and 3. it's ENDLESS STORY(!!!) one of my fav from the NANA series. and she dared screw it up that badly. her pronunciation is simply over the roof. nara
ieru somehow became nara
nieru??
tsuyogaru became
suyogaru!
tsukareta became
zukareta!! i don't even want to point out the rest. it's like error-filled, at least 3-4 from each line. like what the hell??!! get your pronunciation right before you even come to perform
the judges choice are just O_O"'. like HUH?!
伍个人 still can understand la, since their jap still not screwed until that bad.
森林帖 maybe on the vocalist voice, but
大风吹??? where did that come from?? and what happened to the comment that Screamm is probably the only rival to
异世界 tonight?? where do the 2 of them go in the top3 listing?
but tonight's result show dunno to say scary or what? why the hell is
异世界 and
森林帖 at the bottom 2?? i may not be a hard-core fan of
森林帖, but i still admire them and stuff. nande? nande? why them???? but
异世界 should seriously learn not to give people heart attack like that. it's like the 3rd(?) time that they somehow ended up as bottom few.
okk now onto more spirit-lifting topic.
异世界's clothes just spells GAYNESS!! GOLD PANTS!! GOLD ACCESSORIES!! it's all bling bling and eye-catching and stuff. but it just reminds people of syou and his cosmic world clothes. haha but as usual Kei looks the nicest la. Kunio also pretty eye-catching too. Sam wouldn't probably have looked better if his outfit wasn't so buttoned-up. then somehow Jun looked kinda haggard and Nuh just looks normal.
i shall post pics of syou and ruki and his gay GOLD pants for comparison.

yays! SF1 today. i was seriously looking forward to it. and to say the least, quite a few bands fell short of my expectations.
B1 Screamm (孙悟空): they probably chose a wrong song, cause the vocalist can't bring out the feel of the song. in fact, i think lucify did a much better rendition of the song.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kXURdH-gMxsB2 森林帖 （温柔）: yay! as usual they did really well. i liked the vocalists voice. XD jys
B3 三月（爱情万岁）： the vocalist seriously has pretty strong vocals for a female. but pity her range is not all that wide, if not would have been much better. but i suppose that would also be a "special" point to her bahh..
B4 CStar （天使）: rawr... they totally ruined the song. and to think that song was one of my favourite 五月天 songs. they can't sing for nuts and their 合音 suck big time. thank goodness they were eliminated. i didn't think i would be able to stand another such performance, especially not when it's already SF.
B5 异世界（离开地球表面）: haha.. i'm seriously biased, so i shall leave a paragraph specially for ethe'Real. ^_^
B6 伍个人（倔强）： i didn't expected such a performance from them anw. it was kinda messy, true that everybody were on different tempos. i wonder is it cause they very nervous cause they just came back from revival. but luckily they didn't kena kicked out. as usual, the violinist is impressive.
B7 大风吹 （听不到）： they were ok i suppose. i liked the vocalist's performance, but maybe they shouldn't have the guitarists and bassist all doing the 合音. i suppose it gets kinda messy and not as nice as it should have.
B8 兔子（终结孤单）： i just have one thing to comment. the drummer maybe pro to be able to sing and hit the drums at the same time, but take note that the tempo wasn't all that complicated anw. i bet Nao or Kai can do it too and at a much higher level drumming. and they seriously should stop singing with such heavy 鼻音. it gets uncomfortable on the ears.
okies. end of general comments for the bands. now for the special: Ethe'Real!!!
YESSU!!! they got through again, which means jap songs, hopefully, next round. *cheers*
haha.. all of them so eyecatching. the first thing i saw as a band was...cowboy/wild west look.. lols. and then individually was definitely Kenn. ^^ haha.. first impression was "Woah!! he's not wearing a cap". then next came "the hell??!! he looks so much like Hiroto, just a taller version (ooppss sry hiroto, but you are quite short for a guy). and that means like chio-ness(better pray kei don't strangle me for saying he's chio)." then throughout the performance i was like how the hell did i never realise that kei actually has features that are similar to Hiroto. the front view was already quite like Hiroto, but the side view was like seeing Hiroto O_O. ok.. i suppose that's enough talking about Hiroto-likeness.
but kunio screwed up big time la. i probably wouldn't have been able to make out quite a number of words if i hadn't heard the song before. haha and no offense but kunio should seriously buck up on his chinese. the front part sounded kinda awkward, like some non-chinese person talking. but today's 合声 wasn't exactly all that good. it wasn't that obvious, like couldn't really hear uncle sam. but kei's was nice though. when i heard his part was like "ehh??? uncle sings high notes meh??" then i saw the mic at kei's side then was "ohh... so it was kei.. haha anw very nice".
yuppss so just hope Ethe'Real can do much better the next round, which is FOREIGN LANG!!! YAY!! ohh oppps... i realised i didn't comment on jun and nuh at all... :P.. not my fault, i was too busy deciphering kunio's singing and looking at how much kenn looks like hiroto.
ok.. now for the Hiroto look-alike comparison. okk..maybe not the best pictures to be used for comparison, but those who follows alice nine. should get what i mean.

RAWR.. i so wanna kill my compter now. it's been shutting down on me like 5 times in a row now. and in like half an hour?? that like seriously sucks la. so now i have to use my bro's laptop if not i seriously will attempt smashing my comp.
but anyway, i had drill test today. O_O i didn't feel like going initially. i mean, come on la. who in their right minds would want to wake up at 6am just to go to some school in serangoon for a drill test. definitely not me at least, but i suppose i not all that sane, so i still went =.=
but at least it was quite fun la. as in not the test itself, but the entire thing. cause for like uniform and stuff we have to be real neat and stuff, so there was this frenzy of using plenty of hairsprays to keep all the hair in place. my hair was kinda screwed up la, cause i have like a lot of baby hair after i tie up, so i had to use ALOT of hairpins and hairsprays. i think i kinda set the record, since i used like 10haipins O_O. but it was still really screwed up, so i ended up retying and at least i managed to use 3 less hairpins. *applauds* -.- but at least it looked much neater after retying.
the only really irritating thing is that we had to meet at 7am, and the actual stage 1 drill only started at 8.30am. then since i was taking stage2, i had to wait for stage 1s to finish. so stage 2 only started at about 10am. but thankfully the entire test was real short. i was only about 45mins. but kinda stupid la, cause we went there for 4hrs just for a 45mins test. ohh well..things you do for a badge.
so now that that's over, i seriously need to concentrate on doing homework, if not i'll really DIE on monday. shall chant to myself homework over and over again, if not i sure will procrastinate de. darn..the attraction of computers. T_T
