Top 7: OIAM3

Hye Peeps,


This week review, I'm just gonna make it as simple and brief because the show was dead boring and bland~~


Just as I expected again last week, Fify was out. She was in my bottom 3 based on the performances last week...


Seriously, I can't remember any great moments this week. In terms of vocal Amylea, Esther, Rizu and Simon are doing okay this week.


Aweera, Nine and Tomok are okay in vocal department but lack in pitching. Aweera and Nine especially; can't really hear what are the lyrics...


Haish.....just like I say, not worth it la pulak rasanya minggu ni..susah payah aku tempuh jam semata2 nk smp before 9.30pm nk tgk OIAM..alih2..mcm hampeh lak this week...huhuh


The main highlight for my post this time around is regarding our two 'beloved' judges...Gosh! Si Paul Moss ni memang annoying..bercakap mcm tin kosong....I think dia ada problem dgn telinga dia ni la...Tambah lagi dgn Ahkak Syafinaz Selamat ni....Menyampah aku....especially bila time Tomok bawak lagu dia...Macam f***!(mind the language)...Bile lagu sendiri tau pulak nk suruh penyanyi lain 'kekal kan melodi asal'? Yang ko pergi rosakkan lagu org lain tu tak pe?


Last week Esther butchered Maroon 5 song..Paul and Syafinaz said nothing and even awarded her the immunity...and this week, lagu Ahkak Syafinaz ni Tomok bawak, and Paul and dia sendiri suruh Tomok jgn kacau melodi and maintain keaslian lagu? WTF! Ko baru tau macam mana rasanya lagu ko di musnahkan ke? Then why nk lawan pendapat Aidit Alfian the other week? Mcm bodoh la 2 judges ni...ckp tak serupa bikin....and nmpk sangat ada isu favoritism dlm ni.. Sah2 dieorg minat Esther and everything that she does, semuanya ok..Ok, i don't have issue with Esther.I think she has a great vocal, and showmanship but dia selalu rosakkan lagu org sbb Ahkak Syafinaz die bagi green light...


Tomok just upbeat kan je lagu Syafinaz tu...and walla! Paul and Syafinaz mula menjilat ludah mereka balik ckp 'kena kekalkan essence and keaslian lagu'? yeah right~ Seyesly, this is the most annoying part for this episode...I hope those who read this blog, could link it to Syafinaz and Paul Moss for them to read..Please be consistent in judging those kids. Jgn pilih bulu....Everytime Rizu naik pentas je, si Paul Moss ni mesti tak puas hati wpun vocally and performance wise Rizu did better than Simon most of the time, tapi si Paul ni mesti nk sokong Simon je..so favoritism~


Enuff about those 2 'cakap-tak-serupa-bikin' judges, back to the show, I personally think, nobody deserve the immunity this week let alone Tomok?WTF? dah la berterabur je dgr and most of the time dia tak hit the right note pun the whole song ...Maybe die dpt immunity sbb Syafinaz seronok ada org pilih lagu die kot...what ever~


So this time around, no more bottom 3 from me...Tadaaaaa! bottom 7...huhu..semua layak keluar...huhuhu...(obviously Tomok ada immunity so tinggal la bottom 6...huhu)...


Wishing everyone the best of luck then...and to Syafinaz, sekarang ko tau bagaimana rasanya Kak Uji Rashid masa ko rosakkan lagu dia dulu kan?not so sweet huh?huhu....Technically you are good Syafinaz but commercially as an artist?I don't think so...huhuh...(yes I have grudge against her in this post and in fact dr dulu lagi...huhuhu...Kapten, jgn ckp aku marah die sebab die reject aku masa audition OIAM2 dulu...tak de kaitan ye..huhuhu)...


Till then folks....hope you guys enjoy..hihihihi


Foot Note: Mekot and Rizal, lmbt lagi la nk jawab 'tag' korang tu ye..hihihiih

::Top 8 OIAM3::

Wassap guys..

Sorry for the no-update on the Top 9 last week...was not feeling very well after the show..and I left my comments(yes peeps, I wrote them down on a paper every week..hahaha) unattended..Lagipun the next day kena drive gi Kerteh for my fren's wedding..So mmg tak larat sgt that nite....


So I'm back again this week...Actually last week I wrote down that Anith, Simon or Aweera was on chopping block based on their performances...but it should be more on Anith..and wallah! what did I say? She indeed got booted out this week...Mcm aku cakap selalu..Anith ni bole nyanyi, tapi tone die biasa je..and performance die mmg amatuer sket, nothing suprise, no creativeness...so kinda boring mcm Pija...So goodbye Anith..doakan yg terbaik untuk you after this..You still young...you can improve more over time...and she did better on the farewell song (Kerna Kamu-Faizal Tahir), but what done is done...


Persembahan pembukaan from Top 8 menarik..lagu Seksis(Anita Sarawak)...tapi I know, sumer part harmony penyanyi latar band yg tolong buatkan..huhuh..takpe la...performance je pun..hihih...So let start with my review for this week...Sekali lagi diigtkan, ni personal opinion..kalo tak suka, sorry la...I'm not a professional, just personal note and a bit on what I know about music...So here goes...hihihi


Tomok (Gantung-Melly Goeslow)

Vokal: Diction mcm English sket(sebutan 'T' and 'S' mcm ada problem), lower register kurang dengar, and pitching ada problem sket. I think lagu ni patut dinaikkan one key higher than apa yg ada, sbb range vokal die bole stretched lagi

Persembahan: Lambat heat up, kat hujung baru build up,this week graf die turun sket, a bit jaded~




Amylea (I'm Yours-Jason Mraz)

Vokal: Dari dulu suka tone almost sengau dia, vocal variation bagus, tak banyak problem

Persembahan: Kreatif dgn reggae mood, relax and cool, her strength is her creativeness and tak mengejutkan die pandai buat lagu semua,seems professional




Aweera (Tiada Lagi-Mayang Sari)

Vokal: Sebutan tak jelas, almost sengau je nyanyi,tak menyakitkan telinga sbb tak menjerit

Persembahan: Amy Search versi amatuer! been there done that la Aweera, pliz la be more creative



Rizu (Mercy-Duffy)

Vokal: Falsetto die ada kureng sket mlm ni, tapi part vokal still mengagumkan mcm biasa

Persembahan: Simple arrangement, menarik sbb lain sket dr lagu asal, mimik muka kena tone down a bit more dik..die kena cari cara untuk membuat Paul and Syafinaz suka kat dia and bagi immunity tu..



Simon (When You're Gone-Avril Lavigne)

Vokal: tone suara sedap, sesuai dengan lagu, part chorus ada pitchy sket

Persembahan: 'Predictable-Simon-show', dia mmg tak bole keluar dr comfort zone, nothing new on the creativeness and arrangement


Iklan sekejap: Paul Moss ni mmg pilih kasih..Bila time Simon je, semuanya tak apa, 'that's his zone'..bullshit!kalo org lain, die suruh ubah tu ubah ni..kalo Simon keep listening to Paul ni and tak nk keluar dr comfort zone dia, he's going out really soon...skrang dah semakin boring la Simon, yes he can sing, but that's it nothing more...should we give him RM 1 mill?Basker tepi jln pun sedap gak..nyanyi berdiri mcm tu je..so bagi la RM 1 mill kat dieorg gak...So Simon, please be more creative..tap to the other side of you..move forward, don't just stay there!



Fify (Pria Terhebat-SO7)

Vokal: yes she can sing,tapi lower register kurang support sket,and mlm ni vokal die shaky sket

Persembahan: arrangment okay sbb keluar dr kepompong SO7, but i'm starting to get bored with her performance.Mcm Syafinaz ckp, die kena try something new with her vocal and all that



Nine (Karma-Cokelat)

Vokal: suka his voice this week, rich, cool and relax, ada vocal variation tapi after chorus, pitching berterabur..

Persembahan: mcm opposite je muzik lagu ni, lirik die mcm sedey, tapi arrangment mcm happy mappy, kurang berminat dgn interpretation lagu ni, but he try..clap for that!



Esther (Won't Go Home Without You-Maroon 5)

Vokal: vocal almost kepit die works for her, sbb tone die sedap, not really much problem

Persembahan: I HATE THE ARRANGMENT..dah tak de bunyi lagu asal langsung, which in bad word 'MEROSAKKAN LAGU ASAL'...You can call me orthodox or whatever, tapi tolong la kekalkan keaslian asal lagu tuh..ni yang Aidit Alfian try to tell last week die tak nak lagu2 die jadi rosak mcm ni...Syafinaz sure happy dgn performance Esther because she ruined somebody's else songs alot too...tolong lah ye, jgn la rosakkan lagu org...apa la perasaan kalo korang ada buat lagu and org ubah2 main hentam cromok je..tapi in terms of audiences interaction, Esther's a pro in that department, and she did enjoy herself on stage..rasanya Esther hanya layak menyanyikan lagu baru sendiri je, sbb nanti die rosakkan lagu2 org lain jugak...



For immunity, aku rasa Esther hanya layak dibagi untuk performance and vocal, tapi her interpertation on the song, she's got my hate vote. I like Amylea's and Rizu's interpertation more so they deserve the immunity too..


Based on this week performance, my bottom 3 would be Simon, Fify and Aweera but votes can change everything..So guess we'll have to wait for the right result next week then...

Untill then, I'm signing off my review for this week~~

OIAM3-Top 10 Show

Hye guys,

Top 10 show just ended..I think most of the contestants this week performed better than they did last week..mostly I would say..

So Han is out..just as I predicted earlier right?Based on performance alone last week and knowing (a hunch actually) that she doesn't have a strong fan base, she's more at the disadvantage side compared to Aweera. But again, maybe we didnt give her the time or opportunity to show more of her capability yet by voting her out.Tapi kan, ini fast-track show..They can't screwed up.They have to be at their best every week.Consistent is the word..Tapi farewell song Han 'I Don't Wanna Miss a Thing' was much2 better than her song last week. Memang betul kot, Han ni ballad queen dlm OIAM3 ni..semua lagu jadi ballad...hihihi...apa pun Han, u try your best and hopefully this one gives you better exposure than ur Bintang RTM days..


AMYLEA-Bohemian Rhapsody

Honestly, I didnt really know this song but she did pretty good with this number. Kita start dgn apa yang aku tak suka dulu bole?hihih..I hate those 'mic-stand-with-no-legs' thingy...bile nyanyi lagu rock, kena pakai mic stand mcm tu ke?tambah lagi dgn kain yang die ikat kat mic tu...adui...buruk bebenor aku tgk...tak cun eh! and almost predictable kind of performance for a rock song..and honestly, pernah nmpk style nyanyi mcm ni masa Amylea dlm AF dulu..same ol same ol....tu yang membosankan...
part vocal, well undeniably true, she can sings almost anything(lagu asli 1 bole tak amylea?), so like i said,it was a so-so performance for me..not that much hype~~nevertheless, i think it's enuff to keep her stay next week


Nine-Hapus Aku

He did BETTER than last 2 weeks. awal2 dgr gak pitchy dia, tapi towards the middle of the song, he came back and become that Nine that I saw during early audition dulu. Dia mcm entering his own element again(maybe die kena gantung gitar die tu kot..huhu)so this time around, i believe in him once again. Tapi still tak cukup 'Nine' lagi...I think he can do better than that..Nine, bawak lagu group ko sendiri bole?lagu Coco satu!huhu..Selamat kembali Nine!



Fify-Hot and Cold

Aku rasa Fify nyanyi tadi mcm ada satu part die lupe lirik and die pun berpusing2 ala ballerina di atas stage tuh..hmm..biler tgk balik, mcm ada meroyan sket aksi die mlm ni..mcm high semacam lak aku rasa..i know the song is 'happy-mappy' song, tapi tak perlu la mcm mabuk2 kot atas stage tu..and sebutan lirik die pun tk dgr sangat..Fify lak drop this week..adui...suara die lagi sedap dari Katie Perry tuh, and patutnya nyanyi lagu ni lagi sedap...tapi tak la teruk mcm tahap cipan..she was okay, tapi i like her more last week...Fify, ko nak tak RM10,000 ko tu?Kalo nak, buat la betul2 sket next week kalo ko ada lagi la...


Simon-Juwita

I like Simon's performance this week.For the first time, aku bole relate dgn apa yang dia nyanyi.Maybe selama ni die asyik nyanyi lagu omputih yang agak suam2 kuku mcm tak relate sgt..Tapi untuk lagu ni, mcm Syafinaz ckp, untuk seorang India, sebutan die sgt jelas. Tapi honestly, bila die nyanyi lagu Juwita, the voice sounds so familiar.I think we have heard that kind of voice in our industry so he need to do more to differentiate it.Cuma aku tk rasa climax lagu ni bila die nyanyi..Mcm sesi menyanyi begitu saja..Tak ada part yang kita bole ckp 'Wow!'..Agak plain, tapi suara die yes sedap didengar~


Anith-Pilihlah Aku

Suara Anith minggu ni mcm bunyi serak..sakit suara ke dik?bunyi mcm tak 'sejernih' suara die sblm ni.Sama kes mcm Simon, tak hype and tak de climax la die nyanyi lagu ni..simple sgt..mcm semua org bole nyanyi lagu tu mcm tu..Anith, you are again forgettable girl!yes, you are cute and camera loves you, but that's not enuff...performance yang suam2 kopi je bagi aku..btw, i love ur old hair..black suits you better Anith...


Rizu-Sandaran Hati

Aku maybe bunyi bias sket kat Rizu, tapi serious..aku rasa kagum ngan die mlm ni..I dun really expecting that song can be altered that way...bole jadi RnB lak tu..and Gosh..vocally, he's there already.Mimik muka still ada lagi, tapi mcm kurang dh minggu ni..Serious i'm loving his talent and voice(mesti kapten mula mencebik bibir baca ni..hahaha)..Mmg pelik, badan kecik, tapi suara besar..One of the best vocal tonite~~tapi die tak dpt gak immunity tu...Rizu, try control lagi mimik muka tu k?Good Job!


Pija-So What

This one is better than last week obviously tapi aku dh mula start boring ngan performance dia.Style sama every week, same kind of song, same kind of presentation, same kind of rock-chic style. I would love to hear her sing ballad song with that husky power voice and yes diction die pun kurang jelas bile nyanyi.Pija, wake up girl!1st week was bomb!2nd week was disaster, and this week it was boring!sorry girl....


Aweera-Gemilang

Betul ckp kapten, aku igt die nak bawak lagu Jac yg lain..'Di Bawah Pohon Asmara' ke....or 'Cepat Cepat'..hahaha...sekali Gemilang...risau gak aku die nak nyanyi lagu ni..kang rosak lak lagu ni sbb dgr jeritan2 je...tapi suprisingly, this time around he toned down and sing it out.mcm aku ckp sblm ni, aku suka suara die(minus menjerit pontianak tu), tapi since die asyik menjerit every now and then, menyebabkan aku menyampah and memburuk kan lagu2 yang die nyanyi.tapi mlm ni, mmg die lebih and lebih bagus dr sblm ni..ni pun satu lagi, tak sangka lak lagu Gemilang bole di rock kan..and actually, it sounds nice..ada la shaky2 sket here and then..tapi aku still suka..and best performance from him so far. .terima kasih Aweera sbb tak menyakitkan telinga aku minggu ni~~


Esther-I Try

This time around, dia nampak exclusive sket.Pakaian dh tak nmpk lounge/club singer tapi style and movement still ada 'clubbish singer' tu. Suka penghayatan and yes suara dia unik and sedap and die make the song her own..which is good(nasib baik die tak try buat suara Macy Gray..hahah) One of the best performance tonite I would say..


Tomok-Crazy in Love

For brave and bold move and song choice, I gave him A+..Tak sangka lak dia berani bawak lagu ni. I tabik him for that cuma diction dia perlu diperbaiki..kurang dengar sket apa dia nyanyi. but it was way better than previous weeks. mcm different side of Tomok. I have to agree with Paul this time around(sigh!), singing wise nothing to be proud and huha about ,but performance wise, he did great..


After the show, my Top 3 performance would have to be Rizu, Aweera and Esther (not in order anyway) and I would have to put Anith, and Pija as my bottom 2 for this week. Again, this is totally depends on voting system. Based on performance, I put those 2 at the bottom because Anith:again forgettable and Pija:same ol same ol...so let's just see what happen next week.Maybe somebody else yang akan keluar..Rizu ke? Nine ke?

As for the immunity, since aku pick Top 3 for this week tadi, so sapa2 yang dapat, tak kisah kot, tapi aku lebih suka Rizu dpt actually, sbb technically, he has better vocal than Aweera...


Ngantuk dah aku..huhuhu..till we meet in another entry~~

Nanti kalo aku sempat cari pic, aku letak kat sini k?


Hugs and Kisses~~

Busy Kah Aku?

Wassap people...

Sorry for the late entry..Actually kinda busy lately...was busy with PPA the weeks before, some work to be done, meeting here and there...and it continues with my training this whole week..


Hmm...actually I kinda have an idea on what to put in my blog every week actually...Since I'm starting to become a fan of OIAM3(to those who doesnt have a clue on this, it's a reality singing contest on 8TV read: One In A Million Season 3) so maybe i should just give some opinion on the contestants' perfomances every week..(gosh, please people...i dun want to make a promise, but i'll try my best...hahahah)..Btw, diari OIAM3 pun aku tgk gak...hahahaha


Since it's almost Friday..hmm..should I give my comments on their performance last week?hmmm... well for starter, I think it would be a close fight this season..Personally, a lot of potential, talented contestants this time around...


And personally..I'm a big fan on Pija, Amylea, Rizu(crazy choice huh?hahaha), Nine..who else?I think that's it for now...I think Pija and Amylea had grew so much post Mentor and AF respectively..and as for Rizu, I think he has that big voice(small statue) and if he able to get rid of that 'nonsense' facial expressions everytime he sings, he would go far..Rizu, please, less facial and mouth movement~~And as for Nine...I love(in a gud way) him since I saw him auditioned for this season..but lately( 2 weeks in a row), he kinda fails me...Nine, what happen to u?


As for the other contestants...you guys are talented too, but as for now, my votes go to these 4 people..I'm starting to like Fify too(so naive and innocent, die kena tipu masa pertandingan nyanyi sebelum ni..hahaha..lawak pun ada)..


Last week performances(Top 11) was bad compared to the first week(Top 12)..I'm sitting here and try to remember who stood out...Hmmm... I like Rizu's voice(although I know a lot of people will disagree this), but his rendition of My Way is something I havent heard before..and the finishing note;I got goose bumps(seriously guys!), but that's only happen when I closed my eyes la..hahaha...sbb bila bukak mata, dang!Tengok facial expression ala Broadway, really turned me off...He needs to lay back a bit, kalo tak org akan tgk die as arroagant...


Pija mmg drop dead buruk last week...awal2 masuk dah pitching off and she did not do justice to Kelly's song and also her own voice...Come on! She can do better than that mcm die bawak lagu Meet Uncle Hussin(MUH) the other week...And Amylea,kinda safe performance I would say, singing her own composition,she did it easily..(she deserve the immunity anyway simply because she's the best of the bunch last week)..


Esther, girl, you have the voice, but somehow, I can still see the 'clubbish-singer' style when you are on stage..shake them off Esther..and please don't 'eat' your words..Dia nyanyi mcm mengngulum..Tak clear pun apa dia nyanyi...and what's with that choice of song?'Lagu ni mengingatkan saya kepada kawan baik saya semasa saya mau ke KL'..gosh..who cares?pick some other song..kwn je pun...Tapi bukan Esther je salah pilih lagu...ramai lagi...Han for instance..Getaran Jiwa?Hello?Please la Han,if you sing it with greatness, then I won't get mad..Betul ckp Syafinaz kat Han, dr mula smp habis lagu..pitchy gile!


Aweera?Adui, budak ni...aku suka die bile die tak menjerit mcm pontianak..asyik2 nk menjerit, kejap lagi menjerit..rasa nk cekik je...You already sounds good with that voice of yours, tau la nk buat style sendiri, tapi God!berapa kali nk buat shrieking sounds tu?Menjengkelkan~~Like last week, nyanyi ke menjerit?dr mula smp habis buat style tu..menyampah lak...Grow up Aweera!


Nine pun sama, lagu tak sesuai, both to the audiences and his own voice...The lay back style masa die audition week, eleminition week is MUCH MUCH better..Cepat la sedar Nine, or else you gonna be booted out~Anith?bagi aku so so la...die comel, tapi I am yet to see her true potential in this competition..and honestly, she's forgettable..Need to play her game better if she want to continue on~~Fify did ok for me...menarik gak die bawak lagu Elyana tu, dia bawak different way from the original singer..Simon?hmm..another forgettable item at this point of time..he has the voice..and what's with Paul Moss's comment?Nak suruh Simon maintain dgn guitar die the whole competition sbb tu style die?so challenge yourself by not using your guitar..And Paul Moss(if only you read my blog...hahahah), if you could ask Simon to maintain what he did with his guitar, then you shouldn't asked Han(just an example) to change her style of singing ballad songs too...Be consistent with your comment Paul!And lastly Tomok...Hmm..yes Tomok, we know you can sing (kalo tak buat apa la ko ada group New Boyz tu kan?), tapi man!Lagu 'Rahsia Pohon Cemara'?....adui...dah la arrangement baru tu buruk..tak sedap langsung...lagu asal lagi sedap ye...I'm not gonna be prejudice on Tomok, but as for now Tomok, you are still the way you are before(minus the sengau....yup, dah kurang sengau sket...)...



Well people, this is just my personal opinion and if you don't like it, I can't care much..Everyone is entitle with their own piece of mind...So, if you want to share your opinion, you can do so...Based on the performance alone, I think Han or Aweera would be voted out, tapi judging from the previous voting pattern, we will never know, sbb last week Pija and Amylea pun bottom 3..hmmm...Tapi Ayu mmg patut 1st keluar time tu, since die la paling buruk time tu..Rosak lagu Matahariku tu~~~Gud Luck Ayu~~ Maybe this competition is not for you yet..


So kepada Captain and Narul..I'm back..seperti yang dijanjikan~~Hahaha..


More to come~~~
