Sunday, October 5, 2008 0 comment
I'm too lazy to go in depth into their song selection lah. Just some cut and paste from here. The final showdown is tonight, 8PM, Channel U. Plus! Special guest got Mayday, Beyond, 迷路兵 & Lucify! Woohoo!
B1 大风吹

第1阶段: High 翻天歌曲
歌曲:像一句广告 (原唱:陈奕迅)
1) it's one of those eason's "colder" songs. let's hope the audience like the group's rendition.

第2阶段: 不插电歌曲
歌曲:第一个清晨 (原唱:王力宏)
2) it's also one of lee hom's "colder" songs but i think DFC can manage it well.

第3阶段: 饶舌歌曲
歌曲:听妈妈的话 (原唱:周杰伦)
3) This jay's song got many rap parts meh? Not the best out of Jay's songs (in terms of rapping) but connective enough to engage the audience.

第4阶段: 自选歌曲
歌曲:伯乐(原唱:林宥嘉)
4) Out of the four groups, I think this song is the worst chosen. safe but not representative, neither it is suitable to be use for competition.

B2 三月

第1阶段: High 翻天歌曲
歌曲:Yes or No (原唱:张惠妹)
1) Pretty good choice, at least it will bring out the female's vocals (if she's in good condition then).

第2阶段: 不插电歌曲
歌曲:孤单芭蕾 (原唱:许慧欣)
2) This one is a toughy, coz what we always hear is a dance track version. If they can do it well, then a good mark will be given to them.

第3阶段: 饶舌歌曲
歌曲:咬字 (原唱:何维健)
3) Oh in sync with the latest pop singer. It would be a fun-loving one, but this song is nice becoz it is 'specially sang' by derrick. wonder if their rendition will be better?

第4阶段: 自选歌曲
歌曲:洋葱 (原唱:杨宗纬)
4) Smart to chose one of the current famous songs from YZW... I anticipate their rendition. But the song itself (original style) is also non-representative of their group style.

B3 异世界

第1阶段: High 翻天歌曲
歌曲:抓狂 (原唱:五月天)
1) Good song to show off their 'highness' as a group. Mayday songs are one of those easier to bring up the climax in the audience, but hope that their performance are of measurable standard coz on the very day itself you have Mayday (and Mayday's fans) watching you.

第2阶段: 不插电歌曲
歌曲:Waiting for You (原唱:胡彦斌)
2) The song is nice becoz of RnB version. hope the lead vocalist's don't destroy the song.

第3阶段: 饶舌歌曲
歌曲:周大侠 (原唱:周杰伦)
3) What an adventurous try! but the lead vocalist need to watch out, coz he's isn't a powerful singer (his base voice is weak).

第4阶段: 自选歌曲
歌曲:天亮以后说分手 (原唱:信乐团)
4) They chosen a presentative song (although not J-rock), well enough to show their band 气势.

B4 兔子

第1阶段: High 翻天歌曲
歌曲:绿光 (原唱:孙燕姿)
1) Erm, afraid that their vocals can't match up to the stefanie's version (she uses falesetto to sing the distinctive parts). But this song does show their 青涩 style.

第2阶段: 不插电歌曲
歌曲:人间 (原唱:王菲)
2) A classic from faye and a very adventurous try from this group. looking forward to their rendition, especially when their vocals are unique but may not be suitable for this classic.

第3阶段: 饶舌歌曲
歌曲:听袁惟仁弹吉他 (原唱:S.H.E)
3) Isn't a particular rapping song but should allow them to score if they do it well enough. safe choice.

第4阶段: 自选歌曲
歌曲:吉他手 (原唱:陈绮贞)
4) The coldest song to choose (among the groups), but the best representative song of their two lead vocalists.
Ahyo, should I give any comments? I know I will end up very bias. But...

Ahya! Who cares! I'm talking to myself now.

First thing is I hate people singing Jay's song in competition. It's never a good choice. The first and only time a contestant sang a Jay song in 超级星光大道 (许仁杰 sang 安静), he was eliminated that week.

Next is I totally dislike groups that choose 主打歌 as their competing piece. Because they are 主打歌, the audience has been used to hearing the original version already. And the competing groups will have to do 200% to make it their own. And if they just choose a cold song, 100% will be sufficient to perform it properly and win over the crowd. This is why I like 林宥嘉 and 梁文音. I like the surprise.

3rd... I am sure that the above 2 factors will not be applicable to the competition results tonight. (There, I just contradicted myself.) Because the results will be 100% based on audience voting. Afterall, money counts.

Ahyo, every time I say I'm disappointed with local shows, but I still followed them. Sianzzz...
