Always Keep the Faith pt.2

Like the lyrics says: It's the return of the King. But sadly, it's not perfect. They're not the King unless it's the five of them. I haven't been a fan for long (sadly), but even I understand the simple equation of

5 - 2 = 0

5 - 3 = 0

JYJ without Yunho & Changmin and TVXQ without Yoochun, Junsu and Jaejoong is simply unacceptable. 

As if it isn't heartbreaking enough to watch the 4 minutes and 45 seconds video of only two Kings dancing and singing, the lyrics are just... 

Even though there are many speculations on whether the lyrics are targeted towards JYJ, SME practically denies any allegations and ask for the fans to listen closely to the improvement in TVXQ's skills and that the lyrics are about "the story and heartbreak between two lovers". 

Is that true? Well, you be the judge. I'm pretty sure that there are some underlying message. It can be interpreted either way, I suppose.  

Keep your head down U-Know time (Max)

You know what time it is?

This is return of the king

(Everything has ended) I didn’t even start yet

(We broke up) I haven’t even heard the reason yet

Everyone around me keeps asking me why I’m like this

Why are you like that, why are you like that? I’m already the bad guy

(If it’s a sin) If loving you was a sin

(If that was a shin) If being genuine is a sin

(I’ll keep it low, I’ll keep it low) I’ll hold it in and stand my ground

(Keep your head down)

You look pretty, but inside you’re so different, that’s what I’m afraid of

(Keep your head down)

I said I loved you but I’ll let you go

(Why?) Did you leave me so easily

(Why?) Did I look easy to you?

(Why?) My heart is ripping to shreds

(Why?) If every moment was a dream

(Why?) If only I had the time to set it right

(Why?) I prayed for your happiness

I was always satisfied with having you

I was happy to dream the same dream as you no matter what they said

I had to let you go, but I’m just walking my path anyway

Now I’m just chillin’, Feel like I’m healing

It’s too late, you said you can’t come back

You’ve always believed that I’d crumble without you

That’s a misunderstanding, why would I do that? why, why, I told you I wouldn’t

(Hey) I was really, really sad, because you were so immature

and I was afraid you’d meet someone bad (Why baby?)

(Keep your head down)

You’re really pretty, but that’s all there is to you, there’s nothing important inside of you

(Keep your head down)

A nail is driven into the heart that is holding in the pain of love

Ha, Don’t play with people like that

In front of me, all you do is speak of lies

You’re such a two-faced person

(Why why why) Since when did our crystal-like feelings become so opaque?

Our love has ended, I’ve let you go, and now my heart is empty

But my future is gesturing towards me to get up and smile

I’m letting you go, live happily (why why why)

One day far from now, far from now, I want to just smile comfortable

(Why?) Why

(Why?) You let go of our love so easily

(Why?) Did you ever think that someone would get worried?

(Why?) I don’t think you know yet

(Why?) Exactly just what you let go of

(Why?) Just remain there and watch me grow

(Keep your head down)

Erased, disappeared, you’ve burned to death in my heart

(Keep your head down)

Erased, disappeared, you’ve died in my heart and you no longer exist

No matter what, the lyrics seemed so negative, no? It's completely different compared to the alleged message from JYJ (RE: Always Keep the Faith)

I will always believe in the day all this nonsense will be over and the kings will be reunited once again. AKTF!

A Picture of Happier Time

超級星光大道

Wow, I'm on a roll. The fourth post of the day. I think I'm making up for lost time.

Recently, I got hooked to the Taiwan reality talent search show: 超級星光大道. It's already the seventh season. I have my favorite this season, but I still can't forget about this little guy from the first season - the champion actually: Yoga Lin! I still think I love his voice best. These are two performances of his that I absolutely love. I thought I should share it with you guys.

Song Review: Better Than Revenge - Taylor Swift

The thing I hate and love at the same time about young Hollywood singers (especially Taylor Swift and Jonas Brothers) is their tendency to write about their relationship (past or present, no matter).

Sometimes, I got annoyed - seriously? That's what you have to say? Childish, much? (Exhibit A *cough* Miley Cyrus *cough*)

Sometimes, I've got another favorite song! (Exhibit A, Exhibit B)

Most of the times, I'm impressed with Taylor Swift's ability to write songs. I know I usually give an earful to those around me about how I was annoyed with Taylor Swift, but that's mostly her fault or whosoever that chooses her singles. Gosh, all of her songs that was played on the radio sounded the same! (RE: Love Story, You Belong With Me, Mine)

Anyway, this post isn't about that. This post is about this song from Taylor Swift that I really like, for many reasons.

1. It completely targets Camilla Belle, whom I strongly dislike. 
2. I like how instead of putting all the blame of Joe Jonas on their breakup, Taylor realizes that well, that Camilla Godzilla are to blame as well (MOSTLY)
3. It's got awesome lyrics - shows Taylor's character. You go, girl! 
4. The song is just simply catchy! 

I would have prefer her to put all of her energy in writing songs from her experience instead of acting immaturely over a breakup (eg: watch this) More of the story: here

The song of the day:

Movie Review: My Soul To Take

My Soul To Take 

This is yet another movie of a serial killer, off to kill a bunch of kids one by one. But I think I need to give the writers of this movie credit for for the plot of the movie. I don't know how to say it, but usually this genre of movie typically start off by giving a brief introduction and just go off killing the characters. 

Synopsis: 

The movie starts off by introducing The Ripper to the audience. This serial killer has multiple personality disorder, or according to the Haitian - multiple souls. The difference is: personalities die along with the body, the souls live on. Apparently he had already killed 6 people and that night, he killed his pregnant wife. 

So, this Ripper has 7 souls in him. When he was arrested (shot and stabbed several times) and was on the way to the hospital in an ambulance, he attacked the police and ran off. Whether he lives or dies, no one knows. 

Then, we fast forward to 16 years later, where a bunch of kids are gathered at the place where the Ripper disappears to carry out a ritual (superstition). Each year, the Riverton Seven (the seven kids that were born on the same day The Ripper disappears) will carry out a ritual - where failure to do so will set The Ripper free to continue his killing spree - only this time he is set out to kill the Riverton Seven, who apparently contains each of the 7 souls of the Ripper. 

So, one by one the Riverton Seven was found dead (of course, the Asian kid was killed off first, duh? *roll eyes*) and it's up to the remaining Riverton Seven to find out who was the killer before it is too late. 

My take on the movie: 

I guess it's pretty scary, for me. The way the Ripper just appear out of nowhere and just storms towards the victim - I'm serious, one second he was at the end of the corridor, the next he'll be behind the victim. 

It's gory too. The blood just splash out, and continue to pour out. Urgh. 

Like I had mentioned before, the storyline/plot is good too. It actually got you wondering who was the one who is the Ripper. It's suspense, mystery, humor all blend in one. Pretty good actually. 

The ending was a little bit disappointing though, it just went *poof* end. You'll be like "huh" that's it? Oh. 

All in all, I give it a thumbs up! You can give it a try, I suggest Summit USJ - bring along your student ID and voila~ RM6 per ticket!

Happy 2011!

First post of 2011!

First off, I would like to wish my readers (or lack there of) a Happy 2011! May this year be one that's memorable and meaningful in your life.

I hope that this will be the last time I'll try to revive my blog. I've been doing that since forever and I've never been successful at maintaining the de-froze state of my blog. Hopefully this time my blog will stay warm and fuzzy throughout the year.

I've been meaning to try something new this year. I'll keep my fingers crossed to actually get those done, what with procrastination and my attitude of giving up halfway.

That's all for now.

Cheers.
