musician?
dun really consider myself as a "true" musician... maybe can consider half a musician lah.. hahaha.. cos was reading an article on yahoo.. "Are solo artistes at a disadvantage in S’pore?" (not going to touch on this topic).. and some points mentioned struck me.. not really struck lah.. just can feel the same way n agree.. tot i wanna share it here..
Quoted: --
"Acclaimed local singer-songwriter Kevin Mathews added that a big factor in the lack of vibrancy in the local music arena is the low confidence musicians here have.
"I don't want to say things like the government is not supportive. At the end of the day, it really boils down to the musicians themselves. It may be because parents don't encourage their children enough, but that is probably a cultural thing.
"Society in general does not view musicians in a very good light. It will take time for things to change," added Mathews."

" Its good to note Timbre Group's bold initiative. Speaking as an x-musician, there are a lot of talent in Singapore past and present. However often as the case maybe the market demand tends to favor foreign talent in so far as nite entertainment and playback music is concerned. In general Singapore musicians are not as highly regarded as we are often compared with foreign talent. The perception is that if its a local artiste/band then we're only 50% as good and we deserve only 1/2 the fee. Which is why many of us cannot play full time because of bread and butter issue. So Standards drop and agents rope in foreign talent who are good and will even play for a meager fee. Its a viscous cycle and if we no high regard is given to local talent we will continue to see many more dropouts and hung guitars...."
you can search yahoo for the whole article..

politics?
used to be quite apathetic abt politics... but this year.. heard n seen infos online n from friends.. n today i actually went to a pap rally.. (wanted to go to NSP rally.. but theres a last min change of plan..).. to see what have they got to say...
i would say... i am rather disappointed... they talked abt the same issue over and over.. and not addressing the real issue/problems on hand.. not answering the questions the opp asked.. so disappointing..
guess most prob will be attending some more rallies this few days.. hahaaa..
for those who dun care.. or dunno what is happening? please go see and listen b4 voting.. be responsible eh..
well.. all i can say is.. vote for the singapore... not for the party..
cheers~~

下个星期去英国 - 陈绮贞
你收了行李下个星期要去英国
遥远的故事记得带回来给我
我知道我想要 却又不敢对你说
因为我已改变太多
你改了一个名字也准备换工作
你开始了新的恋情有一些困惑
我知道你想要 却又不敢对我说
因为你已改变太多
你写了好几首属於你的歌
这样的歌隐藏了太多苦涩
我知道你想要 却又不敢对我说
因为我曾是你 我曾是你
无话不说的朋友
因为 我们改变太多
遥远的故事记得带回来给我
我知道我想要 却又不敢对你说

你开始了新的恋情有一些困惑

因为你已改变太多
你写了好几首属於你的歌
这样的歌隐藏了太多苦涩
我知道你想要 却又不敢对我说
因为我曾是你 我曾是你
无话不说的朋友
因为 我们改变太多
