Culturally Preconditioned

Well, rumour has it that the 3rd season of Malaysian Idol has been shelved by The Powers That Be, but in actual fact, it has only been postponed to a later date this year. So, in its place is 8tv’s latest foray into reality television.. One In A Million. Initially, I didn’t want to make any comments on the show. Yet, anyway, since it’s only the audition rounds. However, there were some parts of the show that’s worth mentioning.

First up, the theme song sucks. Secondly, for a show called One In A Million where the prize is a million ringgit, I thought the show’s introduction looked really cheap. Please, a school drop out with a decent video editing tool could come up with a better montage.

I still haven’t made an opinion on the show hosts - Alam and Marion (although I do love Marion from her Quickie stints), but so far they’re better than the ultra-tergedik2 Cheryl Samad. The first segment of the show where they explained what the show was all about had a really SSTS (snickering softly to self) moment. The part where they said, “to become an artist, you can send in a demo tape, meet producers, and they help you write songs etc etc etc OR you can enter a reality competition show” followed quickly by “but that won’t guarantee you success”. And lo and behold, what montage did they use in the background? That’s right.. our very own Malaysian Idol from the second season. Hmmm I wonder if they’re trying to imply something. ssts.

Anyway, for a competition that’s not limited to a certain age limit or bound by the fact that they are ‘established’ artist.. I was surprised that the turn-out was as only as good.. (in other words, AS BAD) as the normal Malaysian Idol auditions.

I mean, if I was already a recording artist, why shouldn’t I do it? RM 1 million is a lot of money. And I doubt even 5% of our local artists even make that much in a year based on their music recordings. Sure, your ego might be crushed when you lose the show to an amateur, but hell, it’s a million dollars at stake. That’s a lot of money.

So, instead of really talented people turning up for the auditions, we get .. you know.. normal people (when we’re lucky). Other times, it’s just people trying to sing English songs with very very bad diction. Sorry but singing with bad diction is a sin. I can’t even forgive Siti Nurhaliza for that. Stick to your own mother tongue.

But all is not lost. If anything we are also treated to some good humour tonight. I mean, I never knew Kellie Pickler has had a sex operation and is now working at a carpet store in Sabah.

“Siapa nama awak?”
“My name is Nizam”
“What are you gonna sing for us?”
“…. What?”
“Lagu apa yang awak nak nyanyi”
“Jibun”
“?!@??!*?”
“Lagu Jibun dari band Hong Kong”
“Mmm okay.. apa nama awak tadi?”
“My name is Nizam”

Aiyo… my pregnant friend called me up and had fits of laughter till she really was out of breath. I feared that she might accidentally give birth right there and then. It’s amazing how similar MyNameIsNizam is with Kellie Pickler. I feel slightly dumb right after watching that.

As for the judges, Paul Moss is.. well Paul Moss. He makes sense most of the time, so he’s cool in my books. As for Syafinaz. What a breath of fresh air. No more “Saya setuju dgn apa Abg Roslan cakap”,”Baju awak cantik”,”Saya suka style awak” Gee crap. Here is a woman who (so far) seems like she at least know something about singing, and she’s not afraid to be a bitch with her comments. They’ve made wise choice to go with her for this show.

So.. looking forward to the KL auditions next week. We’ll be seeing Dayang and Farah and possibly some other people in the industry auditioning for the show. Can’t wait.

Oh, and can we PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE leave all the fucking sob stories out of the show? COme on, this is not Akademia Fantaspastika.

On a side note, I would like to make a brief comment on the American Idol finale, but I’m too lazy. Let’s just say, I thought that was one of the most entertaining 2-hour show I’ve watched this year. They were able to camp it up and laugh at themselves, and though the performances weren’t exactly mind blowing, they were all very entertaining (seeing how drunk Meatloaf and Toni Braxton was). The highlight of the show for me was seeing Dionne Warwick performing beautifully with the idols, and at the end of it all, she had a really bad, noticeable, major FUCKED UP note. That was fucking hysterical. ROTFLMAO. Oh and MonkeyBoy should’ve won. Oh and Egghead still sucks. Oh and Acehole still can’t sing for shit. Oh and Kellie has changed her name to MyNameIsNizam.

I cried. I cried while watching the results show on Saturday. Okay, I’m exagerrating, but my eyes did moisten a little. But not when I least expected. I felt really sad when I watched the contestants from last year’s batch come on stage and gave their performance. It was only then did I realise how good they were as compared to the contestants from this second season. Yep.. that made me sad.

In all seriousness, I don’t think anyone would miss anything from this season if they only managed to watch the result show on Saturday. The MI2 contestants gave pretty good performances (ie. Adam, Azam, Atilia and Faizul).. and the rest.. well.. they were fathomable.

In any case, I guess my suggestion for “Vote For The Worst” suggestion really did come into fruition. I was kinda surprised that I didn’t react as strongly as I thought I would when they crowned Daniel as the next Malaysian Idol. Fact of the matter was.. I didn’t really care who won. I guess I wanted Nita to win (yes, I did send in one measly vote), cause let’s face it.. her performance was much better than Daniel’s, but I had resigned to the fact that if she didn’t win, who cares? Not me, anyway. This whole season has been a major fluke.

I have no doubt Daniel will have success with a Chinese album. Not because he’s Chinese but his English diction is a major major problem. His Bahasa sounds less like gibberish but in all honesty, do you think his rendition of ‘Mimpi’ (the song who deserves to be trashed on its own, by the way) will be in regular rotations on our local radio stations? I seriously doubt it.

But I’m not all that in favour of Nita winning either. She is just a slightly average club singer - which became very evident when the two of them sang alongside Jac on stage. And of course, there’s the rabid Nita fans.. who keeps sending me SMSes saying
(1) “WTF? I bet Daniel’s rich family voted hundreds of times” and
(2) “Mark my words.. Nita will be a much bigger star after this” .
Did you send in YOUR vote? (I’m absolute certain, more often than not, these same people will lie through their teeth and say that they have voted, when in actual fact they’ve already been forced to declare bankruptcy after excessive Mawi voting in AF3). And excuse me? A much bigger star? Than who? Than Daniel.. maybe.. but still.. I wouldn’t go as far as calling her a star. Even a singer as great as Jac is nowhere near as big or popular a real star as Siti Nurhaliza (I don’t even like her). So, stop being so melodramatic. This whole thing has been nothing but a hige pile of cow dung and it has ended. Let. It. Go.

So, in conclusion, I’m glad this total suckfest has finally met it’s end. For now. The only shitty show that may actually top this could be the Angkasawan Malaysia. It’ll be like watching a train-, plane- ans shipwreck all rolled into one. Yay! A fresh new reality show to bash. I love being a Malaysian.

The following is a conversation between me and my good Survivor junkie friend in California.

izad_syah: that’s the flaw for this show.
kimbob: yeah, that’s what I hear
izad_syah: but if you follow the show.. it’s the best show ever
izad_syah: it really is quite inteersting
kimbob: I made the mistake of starting and thinking it was kind of tedious
izad_syah: LOL
kimbob: the first few episodes weren’t very exciting
kimbob: at first it was just like seeing the same thing over and over, and then background of the various people
kimbob: I thought it was going to be a stupid drama
kimbob: I had NO clue
kimbob: so by the time everyone was raving about it, I tuned in but was already.. uh… well… lost

kimbob: I’m keeping an open mind
kimbob: I can’t tell if she’s being stuck up or if she’s being put in a role and we’re seeing careful editing
izad_syah: maybe because he called my boy, jamie, lazy )
kimbob: lol
kimbob: jeff probst was on the emmy’s last night
kimbob: he must have flown all the way to california for the event, and then flew back
kimbob: and he didn’t look good
izad_syah: oh and survivor lost (neener) and Amazing Race won
kimbob: lol
izad_syah: but I’m not sure if i’m looking fwd to the new Amazing Race though
kimbob: he really did look like crap, though
kimbob: it looks “meh” to me
kimbob: the whole family dynamic is not very nteresting
kimbob: and they’ll have to calm it down for kids
izad_syah: exactly
izad_syah: but I’m just glad more new shows are starting on tv again
izad_syah: Malaysian Idol 2 is a fucking disaster :-&
kimbob: after seeing rockstar INXS, all idol seems stupid
kimbob: rockstar has been so good
izad_syah: ooh i have my money on MiG
izad_syah: i would love to see marty winning it though
kimbob: I did
kimbob: I loved Mig through a lot of it
kimbob: he’s so yummy
kimbob: but I think I’m turning to Marty
izad_syah: but it’s just appropriate for an aussie to get the title
kimbob: I think he’s got the right stuff
kimbob: JD just needs to get laid
kimbob: SO, Malaysian idol
kimbob: do they sing malaysian songs or us/brit pop songs?
izad_syah: Malaysian Idol.. they alternate between Malay and English songs.. this season was beyond meh
izad_syah: LOL @ JD
izad_syah: oh if you wanna see this was our first Idol from last year http://www.izadsyah.com/tvs/sound/MI_Jac.wmv (about 4 Mb)
kimbob: I may have to save that until I get home
kimbob: my frickin work computer SUCKS at downloading shit
kimbob: OOH I GOT IT
kimbob: yay
kimbob: pretty
kimbob: she’s pretty
izad_syah: and i think she sings great
kimbob: WOW
kimbob: WOW
kimbob: what a voice
izad_syah: not bad, eh?
kimbob: shit
kimbob: what a great voice
kimbob: so they run it in english
izad_syah: yeah.. we have two hosts
izad_syah: one speaks in english and one speaks in malay
izad_syah: that was my favourite performance of hers
kimbob: oh, cool
kimbob: IT WAS PHENOMENAL
izad_syah: this year.. well.. everyone was shite
izad_syah: )
izad_syah: so when do you get home?
kimbob: thursday night
kimbob: it’s monday night right now
izad_syah: 3 more days
izad_syah: oh i hope you wont miss survivor!
kimbob : nope
kimbob : I get home 15 minutes before it starts, LOL
kimbob : as long as my plane is on timel I’ll make it

So I’m guessing this is how our next convo is gonna go :

izad_syah : Hey! Our second Malaysian Idol has just been announced
kimbob : oh that’s great! You got a clip ?
izad_syah : Sure.. have a listen http://www.izadsyah.com/spoofs/images/fuckyouprod.gif (link to Nita’s/Daniel’s performance)
kimbob : ohmagahd
izad_syah : what?
kimbob : I wasted my bandwidth to9 download that piece of crap. Welll SCREW YOU MOTHERFUCKER!!!
kimbob has logged out
izad_syah : yeah.. fuck me indeed.

The impossible has happened. Most of my thoughts have been channelled via Roslan tonight. I don’t know if I should kill myself, or kill myself. Anyway, the group opened the show with Abba’s Thank You For The Music, as a ‘tribute for the songwriters’ which was this week’s theme. I have to admit that the theme was quite creative and I hope to see more of this in the coming seasons. What’s also good for another theme? Abba. I love me some Abba ever since Grizedale’s Summer of 1998 ExtraVaganZa. mmmprawncocktailsandwichesmmm. *sigh*

Spectacular #4 - Tribute to Local Songwriters

Nita - Hati Ini Telah Dilukai
Some friends of mine asked me to ‘be gentle on Nita’ for my next blog commentaries. But to tell you the truth, they didn’t even have to make that special request. Nita did great. She looks stunning, and except for that little one sour note near the end, I can’t really find any faults in her performance. Well done. 7.5 out of 10.

Daniel - Kini Bebas
I had already scribbled down “Make.Him.Stop” on my notepad when Daniel initially came on stage. But he pulled a fast one on me. He actually sounded good and I finally figured out what his appeal was to his fellow voters. Because I can finally listen to the words that he’s singing. He will be an exceptional singer if he sings Chinese songs but otherwise, he’s got a long long way to go. By far, this was his best performance to date. 7 out of 10.

Ash - Mustika
I didn’t expect Ash to sound quite as good, but he did. It wasn’t exceptional, but he definitely exceeded my expectation. The ending sounded weird but I felt it was one of his best performances to date. 6.5 out of 10.

Adam - Seribu Impian
Why am I not surprised he picked this song? This song is so him and I personally thought he sounded real good. I was actually shocked to hear Paul Moss’ “Listen, honey” comment. I personally thought that was offensive and deragatory. I wonder how he really feel about Casey. I really wish people would stop ragging on Adam on being so feminine. So fucking what. Don’t these people realize one of the winners of the Eurovision contest was a tranny for fucks sake. Fucking homophobes. 7.5 out of 10.

Faizull
My first reaction when I first saw him on stage was.. NO, please no. Not leather pants!!! I liked Faizull but that was bad. It was terrible. And I’ve been saying this for a few weeks too long, his novelty has worn off. When he started crying at the end, I immediately thought of Ty from Rock Star : INXS. It’s a bit weird to see cold hard rockers, who at the same time, are also crybaby tittysuckers. Faizull is a good rock singer. Malaysian Idol is not the show for him. Maybe he should wait till Mark Burnett pitch an idea for Rock Star : Cromox. A pitiful 2 out of 10.

Farah - Aku Hanya Pendatang
She gets bonus points for singing while siting down. But I have to agree with the judges. She sounded like she was shrieking the second half of her performance. But she still sounded good and is still my pick to win this show. 8 out of 10.

Zaharah - Ku Mohon
Kudos to her for singing a Sheila Majid song. Yay! I’m not a big fan (like you don’t already know that), but I must say she looked lovely with her macthing dress and hair colour. But most importantly (and strangely) I thought her performance was really good. I never thought I would say that. I just wished she had sung like this all throughout the competition. I’m not loving her, but to be fair (and I hate myself for doing this) I’ll give her a 7.75 out of 10.

So that was an interesting show to say the least. Most of the performances was enjoyable. Ahmad Izham has always proved that he gives the most fair and intelligent comments as a guest judges. Maybe we should start a petition for him to become a permanent one to replace either Roslan or Fauziah or BOTH. I have some beef with the audiences though. What’s up with the whoa whoa whoa wooooooooooooo noises? This is not fucking Senario, people! So the editors fucked up by playing Adam’s credits instead of Daniel’s, it’s not the end of the world. Aiyo.. Grow the fuck up, already. Anyway, my votes will go to Farah and Adam as usual. If there’s any justice in this world, Faizull will leave the show on Sunday.

This will be kinda short since (A) I’m feeling less malicious this week and (B) there are other things to be excited about. I do, however, have to call bullshit on Spectacular Three’s genre. R&B Pop ? You can’t just be creating new genres on the fly, 8tv, but whatever. I did, however, like the question that they proposed to the contestants, which is more important to them : Friendship or the Competition. To those who answered friendship.. well, they’re either lying through their teeth to garner “oh aren’t they sweet and so genuine” votes from the general viewers, OR they’re just plain naive. Kudos to those (hey that rhymes!) who answered Competition cause that’s basically what this is, and they know exactly why they’re there. Yes, yes, I know Zaharah is one of those who fall into this category, but I stand by what I say. To the first group, it’s like those Survivor contestants who “are in it for the adventure”.. oh give me a fucking break.

Spectacular 2 - R&B “Pop”

Faizull - Jangan Lafazkan
I swear I made all my notes during the performance, so I almost crapped my pants when Roslan kinda reiterated my exact points. When the hell did this KRU song became an R&B song? Oh well. Plus points for Faizul, the dreadlocks looked good on him. Bad points, his performance was below par. 4.5 out of 10.

Ash - Ain’t Too Proud To Beg
There’s something not right with his singing, but overall it was a pleasant performance. Good on him. 6.5 out of 10.

Adam - Semua Untukmu
Very ballsy of him to take an Anuar Zain song, especially since he’s the guest judge this week. As a rule of thumb, those who sing while sitting down and get all the right notes will almost always get high marks from me. An easy 8 out of 10.

Farah - Don’t Let Go
I was beginning to really like her. Seriously, Farah is my pick to win this. She is the underdog. That said, I think her performance was not up to her usual standard. Was the song too hard for her? It was just so and so for me. 6 out of 10.

Ejay - All Around The World
Sob stories will usually get negative points for me, but Ejay’s sob story is different. It’s not the oh poor me pity party thingy. Her parents asked her to leave the competition after the harsh critics from the judges because they were afraid it will hurt her feelings yada yada yada. But No.. Ejay won’t take any of it which proves she has the guts and stomach to be in a competitive industry. So I will give her an extra half point this week. I have mixed feelings about the faster arrangements that she chose for this song, but she didn’t do too bad. 6.5 out of 10.

Daniel - Obsession.
Three words. What. The. Fuck. Seriously, if all he’s going to do is mumble and whisper sweet nothings.. then I’ve got nothing else to say. 1 out of 10. But I had to change the ratings after hearing Roslan’s and Gee’s criticism. Do they EVER give constructive criticisms at all? See the difference between ME shutting the contestants down is this is my blog.. a place where I put MY personal thoughts. The judges on the other hand are there for a totally different reason. They’re there to guide and give constructive comments for them to become a better performance. Seriously that Roslan is such an idiot. Sing simple songs? Four words. What. In. Holy. Fuck. Because of that I’m gonna add an additional 8 points giving Daniel a 9 out of 10 just to piss off that bald fucker.

Nita - Snow on The Sahara
I absolutely loved the Jack Johnson song playing in the background during the interview.. so that kinda put me in a good mood. Plus, she sang one of my favourite songs, and she looks hypnotically beautiful tonight. Even that duda gatal miang also can’t help but comment on her looks. Anyway, it was a good performance from Nita. 7 out of 10.

Zaharah - Ain’t Nobody
It really was just average. Seriously. 5.5 out of 10.

So. Daniel gets the highest rating from me this week. Who’da thunk it? I will be sending my votes to Adam and Farah despite her inconsistence. And probably send some down Ejay’s way too, because Roslan might not ‘get’ her style, but I do. I’m not gonna take a guess at who might be leaving this Sunday, but I definitely won’t miss any of the rest if they’re gone this week.

I was surprised they didn’t start off the spectaculars with another group performance, but instead all of them marched on to the stage and jigged to “Warna” which was this week’s theme. They then showed clips of last week’s results show which saw Trish and Atilia leaving the competition. I would like to point out how big of a hypocrites the two idiots are. Of course, I’m referring to Uncle Baldy and Lemming Gee. And this calls fro a need to resurrect one of my favourite pictures, for prosperity’s sake.

They sounded and looked (unprofessionally) visibly upset with the results, and yet these are the two same people who slammed Atilia for missing the X factor, yada yada yada. I don’t know, maybe they are stunned as I am over the fact some of the viewers actually listened to what they have to say. And for the billionth time, can Jien just stop his playful pokes at Paul? It’s just getting lame. The joke is getting too old. We get it. You and Paul have a thing going on, but honestly, does he think anyone aside from the two of them find their playful banter cute? Bloody hell. It’s not only borderlining on annoying, it HAS become annoying weeks ago. Just fucking stop it. Please. Seriously. I’m gonna speakly less harshly of Cheryl this time around, cause she actually looked good. It must be the hair.

Spectacular 1 - Top 9 - “Colours”

Daniel - Somewhere Over The Rainbow
I feel his performance has improved tenfolds since the last spectacular. Unfortunately, that’s not really saying much, is it? His pitching was off in places, but that was expected. If I was a teeny bopper, I’d probably would’ve loved that performance. And a special WTF shoutout to Baldy for his “stick to simple songs”. First of all, with Somewhere Over The Rainbow, it can’t really get simpler than that. Secondly, the comment “sing simple songs” itself has just won you the Most Idiotic Mind Numbing Idol Comment of the Century Award. As for the performance, 5.5 out of 10.

Nita - Tenda Biru
With Atilia gone, I had no choice but pick Nita as the best female singer. Unfortunately, her performance was mediocre and I was disappointed. She worked her low registers but it really was boring. 6 out of 10.

Farah - Colors of the Wind
For the first time in the competition, I feel Farah really stood out and made me go WOW. I just realised how good she really is (comparatively speaking, of course). I never realised she had braces on, but no biggies. I’m really starting to like her. 7.5 out of 10.

Azam - Sekuntum Mawar Merah
I thank my lucky stars that at least this Sudirman song didn’t get butchered. I like his strong voice, but I don’t know.. he does look a bit weird during his performances. I think I might call him “Stoic Boi” from now on. I am definitely NOT loving the lesbian hair, though. And I hate to admit it, but I did chuckle during Baldy’s “Eh.. apa ni?” comments when Azam presented the lame rose to guest judge Dayang Nurfaizah (who by the way is perhaps the most boring judge ever.. Dayang masih belajar.. mengikut pengalaman Dayang.. Dayang pun pernah.. oh shut the fuck up already. It’s not Dayang Idol). 7 out of 10.

Ash - Lady In Red
No doubt his attire was intended to imitate Chris de Burgh, but I felt it really looked odd. Even John Stevens didn’t wear an outfit like that on stage. Oh well. His performance on the other hand, was much better. It was a glimpse of what I saw during the audition that made me pick him as a possible winner. Still need lots of improvements though. 6.5 out of 10.

Zaharah - Brown Eyes
To be fair, she did rather well for this song. Her best performance to date. That said, I still think her voice is just okay. I’d give her a 7 out of 10. But being the critical bitch that I am, I will deduct 1 point for the sob story before her performance. And being the HARSH critical bitch that I am, I will deduct yet another point for reiterating the fucking sob story after her performance. I’m not buying, and yes, I am a bitch. 5 out of 10.

Adam - Pelangi Petang
To the so called “judges” (or “idiots” as what most of Malaysia’s population will call them) who keeps dissing Adam, please.. you cannot deny that he has the best vocal in the competition. That said, I personally find his theatrics a bit over the top. I hope he tones down a bit, and you know, just sing. However, I do think his weakness lies in singing English but we’ve yet to see that. 7.5 out of 10.

Ejay - Black Eyed Boy
Lemming Gee is a complete fool for making the “lagu tak sesuai” comments. How can that not be the perfect song for her? She excellently delivered it. Maybe Gee should spend some time to actually listen to original song beforehand. Fool. Ejay’s performance was excellent. After her appalling performance last week, I thought she would be a goner, but hell.. I might even send her some votes this week. In fact, I will. It was good good good. I loved it. 7.5 out of 10.

Faizul - Jaket Biru
He did well. Although his performances has been all about Rock ever since we saw him, at least he’s consistent (if not getting better and better at it). Plus I like his laid back attitude. 7 out of 10.

So a recap. Jien and Paul should go to San Francisco and get married. Roslan and Gee are idiots. And I am a bitch. Best performances of the night goes to Farah, Adam and Ejay! I have no clue as to who’s going home this Sunday. For all we know it could be .. seriously.. no fricken idea. EVeryone knows who I want to see the least in the show, right? But chances are she’ll be in it for the long haul. Oh well.
