There comes a time when your mind fails you. It commences when the
billions of neurons in that skull start to shrink, and so do your mental
faculties. Like focusing, for instance.
Like a drift wood caught in a sea cyclone, I resigned myself to my
fate. Free fall for both, like Newton's apple dropping on his lap.
I really preferRegine's version of Alone. No offense meant to Celine Dion fans. Heart is well loved and the Songbird definitely gave justice to their hit songs: What About Love, These Dreams and Alone.
Regine is Regine without her vocal acrobatics. Enjoy!
I never thought Regine can still put a new twist to this song And I'm Telling You. After singing this song for more than 2 decades, she made it more difficult for others to replicate. Hitting a Bb5 in chest voice while sitting.
Finally Narda decided to become Darna. I like her transformation scene. It reminded me of Sailormoon Live except for the cartoony poses of Sailormoon and the Sailor Warriors.
Charice was sick during this rehearsal and Regine's AH1N1 was already incubating in her body. Their fans were waiting for this duet and we all know what happened. Hmm, Regine would normally belt in rehearsals but she just used her headtone voice. This is the complete video rehearsal and the songs in order:
Season 2 shows namely Survivor Palau and Project Runway Season 2 will accompany televiewers on these rainy months. Survivor hosted by Paolo Bediones will premiere tonight after GMA 7's Adik Sa 'Yo. Previous and current castaways will have a party at the Embassy. Based on the teasers, the new castaways have more spunk and well sculpted bodies. I just noticed another Motherly character "Carol- teacher". Don't miss the 1 hour special.
One of the reality tv shows I like is Project Runway. Its first season had limited talents. Aries who eventually won was spotted in last week's The Biggest Loser Asia auditions in SM Megamall. What happened to his prize and his dream of becoming one of the Philippines' finest designers? Season 2 premiered last week and it's apparent that the most talented designers are those who preferred to live in unconventional ways. The first episode was already filled with drama and commendable designs. I'm expecting a lot from this season. You can catch Project Runway at 10 pm on ETC (SBN 21, Sky Cable – Ch. 16, Global Destiny – Ch. 30, Cable Link – Ch. 48 and Smart myTV).
Lady Gaga was unknown in last year's Ms. Universe when she performed. This all changed with a number of hit songs Just Dance, Love Game, Poker Face and Paparazzi. I was surprised that she only had a gold record award.
Anyways, her concert's a major success considering the ticket prices were exorbitantly expensive. Her eccentricity paid off and look at her die hard fans.
Later more pics and videos from artists who interviewed the Lady! Thanks to Mike Villegas & Kenneth Halili.
When the new Darna was revealed, a number of detractors have been very skeptical of Marian Rivera's capability of matching Angel Locsin's Darna and its consistent high ratings. I now believe that bad publicities, negative comments and a lot of hard work can result to amazing ratings. Indeed, Marian can stand alone and Darna is a well loved heroine in the Philippines. I am already convinced that Marian is the new Primetime Queen!
The pilot of Darna last night generated a whopping44.1% (AGB) 47.6%(TNS) in Mega Manila. This is despite the fact that Marian Rivera has yet to appear. - Marian Rivera, truly the QUEEN of PRIMETIME on Philippine Television!!
The Dingdong Dantes Experience VCD/DVD's an instant hit. Imagine it easily reached Gold status in a week's time. When I heard about this album, I initially thought that Dingdong is merely following the career path of Piolo Pascual. I was wrong! It's a good thing that this is more of a personal album geared towars showing the humane side of Dingdong. It didn't make a laughing stock out of him by forcing him to sing. Instead, it capitalized on his dancing and hosting skills.
I am sure this will hit the Platinum status in less than a month's time. Dingdong was sincere it his autograph signing. He talked to his fans and gave each one of them a personalized touch. He enjoyed what he's doing, even in the most humid malls in Metro Manila.
For sure, many fans will truly enjoy--- ExperiencingDingdong's...
Marian Rivera did an amazing job in her Darna Presscon last night at GMA Network Center. The fight scenes were believable. She sounded like she's one of those stars in Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon - Zhang Ziyi & Michelle Yeoh.
Regine Velasquez' Dadalhin made it to the Semi-final round of Melody Vision 3. This is our chance to win. Remember, the Philippines has not won for the past two years. So votE, voTE, VOTE!!!
Also, Regine will be singing in Former President Corazon Aquino's Necrological Service together with Ogie Alcasid, Lea Salonga, Jose Marie Chan, Sarah Geronimo and Jed Madela. I'm assuming she will sing The Prayer with Ogie.
Due to its high demand and requests. Here's a free download of Virna Lisa's Magkaisa and Handong ng Pilipino sa Mundo. These are the songs that were popular during the People Power Movement (Edsa Revolution in 1986). For Tita Cory!
Regine's been working hard again rehearsing for Regine's Most Requested, hosting in SOP and shooting her new movie with Aga Muhlach (Umboy at Bern). These are the reasons why for the past two weeks her voice seemed to have lost its usual power in her Versions segment in SOP. Her voice's fatigued.
Once again, she amazed everyone that Regine Velasquez is definitely not going through a Mariah Carey voice Breakdown. This is her repertoire and just imagine how these songs can be very vocally challenging even to professional singers like her.
This transcript and video sneek peek is from Von aka Ergo in his Youtube account. Thanks for sharing!
