David Cook, Chris Cornell or Michael Jackson?!

I just watched American Idol - the top 10 finalists. Seriously they are boring me..I only thought The Australian guy..I always forget his name, and David Cook did awesome. The theme this week was to sing a song from the year they were born. The Aussie sang a mixture of Queen's We Will Rock You & We Are the Champion and David sang..Billie Jean(Chris Cornell's version)!! I have not heard Chris Cornell's version before this (Audioslave dude) and after the show I checked his version out..David did sing his version, although he did tweak it a little here and there. I thought he did a good job. Chris' one was a little raspy, but that's the way he sings lol

David's version:



Chris's Version (Which David emulated after)



and ofcourse, here's the original one: You know the bit where he goes "..but the kid's not my son.." ? I ALWAYS thought it was "..but the CHAIR'S not my son.."..my mum and aunts used to sing that!! I love this version and Chris' one was fab too! If I'm not mistaken, MJ's Thriller album is being released again titled Thriller:25 years or something like that..I know Fall Out Boy sang Beat It feat John Mayer.



For All you know..SHE might just win it (Thanks for the link Addy, you're awesome!) Bulgarian Idol, American Idol..bah it's all the same! You "Ken Lee" without this for sure!

Ever wondered what music sports people and celebrities listen to? I was watching the Olympics swimming competition and the swimmers were walking to the pool. Suddenly I see Michael Phelps walking out with earphones.. I wonder what he's listening to? So here are a few pics of sports people/celebs and what I think they're listening to. All the pics aren't mine, I took 'em off the net, so credit goes to whoever that took the pics k? Feel free to contribute your thoughts ;) USA NBA Star Lebron James - Getcha' Head in the Game [High School Musical] Russian Tennis Player Maria Sharapova - The Kill [30 Seconds to Mars(Venus)] Chelsea football/soccer player, Nicolas Anelka* - Second Chance [Trisha Yearwood] * missed a penalty at the Champions' League Final Desperate Housewives star Terri Hatcher - Yet Another Plumber [Flashlight Brown] Super fit Fergie - Work It [Missy Elliot] Cristiano Ronaldo* - Holiday in Spain [Counting Crows] * was rumoured to move ...

Come Read With Me (February)

Image
I've got 4 books to share with you for February :) First would be a book given to me by Mariposi (aka Gavin) for my birthday. Was so thoughtful of you! Thank goodness he gave me the English version as I do not think I would be able to tackle the original version (which is in Spanish) as my vocabulary in Spanish is abysmal at this moment. The cover of the book pretty much sums up the story - A novel in monthly instalments with recipes, romances and home remedies. The story is set in a ranch in Mexico. A boy resorted to marry the sister of his girlfriend just so he could be close to her as she was destined to take care of her mother till her mother dies as she was the youngest of the family. I love the way Laura writes and she incorporates a lot of recipes in between the main plot. I just watched the movie (no subtitles!) and it was a good thing I read the book beforehand or else I might have gotten a little lost. They followed the book 100% and it was really good :) For more informa...

Barcelona!!

Be warned: This is a super long post..longer than my Al-Hambra one! I'm finally blogging about my next destination during my trip to Spain.. that is none other than the lovely and quirky.. BARCELONA! After the last day of class (Friday), my friend Nav and I took the bus to Madrid..we booked a flight to Barcelona from Madrid at about 6.30am (i think?) on Saturday morning. We said our goodbyes to our housemates and new found friends, and departed the beautiful Salamanca. On the way to Madrid (last time onboard the efficient and comfy Avanza) I caught Ávila at night and I must say the view was breathtaking, it happened to quickly and I couldn't take the pic on time. Managed to catch the colourful sky though =) Skyline - trust me if was so beautiful in real, the camera gives it no credit at all. We spent the night at the airport, but I didn't get much sleep at all - THANKS to one lousy couple who sat opposite me..that lady had an annoying high pitched laugh..AND SHE KEPT LAUG...
