Yesterdays campus super star revival round was atrocious , 5 people actually failed, and the lowest marks were broke again and again, ended up at 12 with xu bin....... siao....
Jia qi with chao kuai gan. this is actually quite a difficult fast tracked song by stephanie sun. I found jia qi impressive lol, she was able to micro-manage the falsetto notes very well, and with minimal buildup. thats damn good of her lor..... i think i will give her and 8/10.
Teri with zuo bian. i dunnoe this song lol, nothing to say, but i will give her a 7/10
Amy with na nian xia tian ning jing de hai. Its a very difficult song, amy was not able to emote the feeling of the song persona. This song also has a good measure of note variation, and you can hear that amy was off pitch very frequently. i will give her a 5.5/10
Jia jun with you yi tian wo hui. This song has less note variation, and more background music to highlight the singers voice, but jia jun screwed it up. It was off pitch, no emotions so on... i not professional k..... i will give her an 6/10
Hui xian with c da diao. Again , a song by angela zhang, does she love her so much? lolx, she sang this song pretty well, but there are alot of vibratos unnecessary , i think it was because of her cute jumping and walking movements that led to this lolx. her articulation was bad, couldnt hear what she was singing, but the pitching was quite ok, at least better than the other contestants. i will give her an 6.5/10
Elaine with good tears bad tears. i feel that she is playing safe with this gentle ballad. But obviously, she chose the wrong song. She wasnt mature enough really show the meaning behind this song, she also did not have layering. The strength for the whole song was quite the same.... she should have put more force in the chorus. i will give her a 6/10
Wilson, omg omg, with dang ni gu dan ni hui xiang qi shui. This song is actually not a difficult song, but as the song went on, wilsons vocal development went down the hill....at first it was still quite ok, then he began to off pitch, and omg nothing to say. 3.5/10
Jun jie with wang ji. I dunnoe this song so maybe a 4.5/10
Fu kwan with one of my favourite songs AI AI AI. Fu kwan was able to catch the r&b genre in this song, and his falsetto notes were pretty clear . He was also able to weave through the transition points in the song easily, but his stage image was damn bad. Why must his hand must always be in that pocket... its looks bad, and why did he sit on a chair.......... i think 7.5/10
Xu bin with jian dan ai. Ok 1 word BAD. Off pitch like nobodies business..... stage presence not there, how did he get into top 20? walau at least yesterday the last 2 verse he never off pitch, or he may get less than 10. a 2.5/10
Javin with gei wo ni de ai. Wrong song choice, but it actually showed that javin has range haha. the numerous transitions in this song brought javins to off pitch . But only at the trainsits, his falsetto were not trained enough, the were like shivering kinda falsetto... more like vibrato... But i think he managed the stretch notes pretty well. i think a 6.5/10
Shawn with mu nai yi. Again a jj lins song. Its considered a fast pace ballad and shawn is also playing safe here. he managed high and low notes very very well and they were right on the spot.He was on rhythm for the whole song, and although the chorus part, he offed 2 notes, thats all. His stage presence was again acting cute... I can say his very good. But i am beginning to suspect his versatility in songs. He chose these songs again and again, cant he change a genre? i will give him a 9/10.
Ok in the semis , the girl group will start performing first next tuesday. They will be singing Tv drama songs i guess. thats all. I am now sick at home, thanks for all who were concerned bout me. I Have got a throat infection, a soft palate infection and alot of flam(dunno how to spell).
