周杰倫 - 麦烝玮（我叫小麦）

LOL OMG JAY. I LOVE YOU.

Jay composed (he edited Lara's song, 我不再怕) and wrote this song and directed the MV. What can I say? Even such a song that was made for laughs sound so damn good! Jay's spontaneity is one of the many reasons why I love him ^__^. I've been listening to nothing but this song since I heard it a few hours ago, even though I was looping Beast's AWESOME new album then lol. Jay sounds totally good in this song too! If only I can strip away the autotune ^^;;. And both the song and MV are SO HILARIOUS LMAO. Sigh, only Jay can make me laugh so much with his songs :)).

One word: 屌!

I CAN'T WAIT FOR JAY'S NEW ALBUM OMG. But Jay, don't you dare autotune your new songs okayyyyy! Consider yourself warned LMAO XD.

I LOVE JAY CHOU. FOREVER AND EVER.

Just wanna put this here XD.

10/30/2010 Mr. J頻道 (羅志祥)

Apparently, Jay has his own talk show now LOLOL. 小猪 was the guest for the first episode!

2 3

I love seeing Jay and Show together :'). And old stories are always interesting haha XDD. Honestly speaking, though, this show feels really random and if Show wasn't there, I think it wouldn't have been half as interesting LOL. Show is just soooo hilarious! Jay's make-up artist Ah Du is funny too haha.

Psst, I am actually secretly in love with 小猪. HAHAHAHAHA.

Whenever I hear a Jay Chou song being played somewhere, in a store, on TV, wherever, my ears perk up and I grin to myself, and suddenly my day would seem a little better. I think, only Jay's songs have that effect on me, haha.

24.07.10 Jay Chou The Era Concert

The concert was AMAZING! I think the main highlight of the concert is the technology used. The 4D effect in the beginning was super cool 'cos it looked like Jay was really there, and throughout the concert there were nice 3D animations too. Jay sang quite a number of songs from his new album, and also a couple of unexpected ones from his older albums. This time he only played the piano and a little bit of guitar though. He danced for a few songs too. Vocally he performed okay, with some variations here and there, but a few times he sounded strained. He worked the crowd well, changing some of the lyrics on purpose and telling the audience that the chairs were for us to put our bags, not for us to sit on. Audience-wise, generally the crowd was very supportive, waving their lightsticks and cheering for Jay. It's awesome how everyone seemed to know how to sing every song, so there were lots of sing-alongs, initiated or not. The lyrics were displayed on the screens for us and a big LED screen at the back for Jay, which I think was a very good move haha XD. A few times I saw Jay laughing a little to himself when he changed the lyrics; lol he's so cute. There was this tall guy I noticed two rows from mine who was wearing working clothes and looked all prim and proper, but during one upbeat song he was waving his stick (the thing with air in it, I don't know what it's called) and even dancing a little LOL. That, is the power of Jay's music :).

Jay's mum and grandmother were there too! They were sitting at the last row of our block ^^. I think it's sweet how the two always follow Jay around for his concert tours. And Stefanie Sun was there too in the audience!

As for my personal experience, we were sitting at Row 32 in the middle block, so we had a good view. I had a really great time cheering until my voice was gone, and waved the lightstick the whole time until my hand was so sore. The people around my friend and I weren't that "high", probably because they were all adults. We were being very good audience, even if I say so myself, 'cos we cheered even for The Drifters -- the guest performer -- when all the people around us were sitting down, that one of them saw and pointed at us XD. And before the encore we were the only ones shouting for Jay haha ^^;;. There was a video in the middle of the concert showing Jay's journey in the past 10 years, at the end of which there were words on the screen from Jay, thanking us for being with him all these years, saying that he hopes that we'll still be with him for the next 10 years, and reassuring us that he won't fall easily, since he's Jay Chou. I teared a little at that, lol.

I love Jay :).

You know, I used to not say that I love any male celebrity in my blogs. Sure, I said all the time that I loved this pairing, that band, but I never said that I loved any one particular male artiste; that was where I drew the line. The first time I did, though, was after Jay's previous concert here; I said that I love Jay. After that post, somehow I started saying that I loved this male singer, that male actor, as if the word "love" is free. But every time I say I love Jay, it surprises me and also scares me a little, because each time, I realise that I mean it.

THANK YOU ♥.

周杰倫 - 說了再見

THIS SONG. DO I EVEN NEED TO SAY ANYTHING.

I love this song, like really, really. You'd see me smiling very widely when I'm listening to/singing this song, 'cos I'd be trying not to cry. Because yeah, this song is a real tearjerker. For me, at least. I think 杰倫 is trying to kill me LOL. But it's very very nice!

Anyway, I was a little disappointed that the MV contains mostly scenes from the movie this song was the soundtrack for, but the movie looks very interesting. And Gui Lun Mei is in the movie, so I'm happy 'cos I'm still secretly wishing for her and Jay to end up together HAHAHA. (He's working on Secret 2; hopefully she will be in that movie as well! ^^) And in the few scenes with Jay in them, he's playing piano, which is when he looks best, so hey, I ain't complaining xD.

I hope Jay will sing this song in the upcoming concert. *crosses fingers*

woots.

I'm sure that got your attention, because it totally got mine xDDDD.

I'm glad Jay is recovering his old friendships; Xiao Zhu went to watch one of the nights of his concert, Jolin sent flowers for one night and guest-starred in another.

Reading the news reports, his concert sounds awesome. Can't wait for July 24th! :))

20100524 娛樂百分百 周杰倫 歌唱大賽

part 2 3 4 5

It's been such a long time since we see Jay and Show together. This episode was recorded on the 18th, when Jay came on the live show. I don't know whether they have sorted things out between them, but I really, really hope so. At least even though there's still a little awkwardness in the air, there wasn't obvious tension and they weren't putting each other down, like the previous time Jay was on the show. I don't know whether it's just Show being a very professional host or whether things have gotten better between them, but I really hope it's the latter. I was so happy when 小猪 showed concern over Jay's sickness; when he said, "好人好事代表" -- that is actually part of 超人不會飛 lyrics -- when Jay was making comments that sounded like he was just trying to not be mean; when at the end he kept looking over at Jay's direction and finally asked, laughing, whether Jay wanted to learn the phrases 小猪 and 小鬼 were saying. The way 小猪 laughed looked sincere, but I don't know whether it looked that way just because I want it to be. Either way, I hope they will solve their problems and become good friends again!

That aside. I don't usually watch 娛樂百分百 歌唱大賽 because of various reasons, but this episode wasn't too bad. 陳柏村 is a splitting image of Jay, like seriously o__o. His looks, the way he talks, everything! Man this is freaky. He's cute, but I'm not sure whether it's because he's so much like Jay, LOL.

As you might have noticed, 小猪 has his own tag now! I think it's about time, haha ^^.

And I have to say, I really love Jay a lot :).

周杰倫 Vol. 10 - 跨時代 (The Era)

Finally, after almost two years of waiting! The album was actually released two days ago, but I wanted to listen to the album enough times to give a proper review, since it usually takes a while for Jay's songs to grow on you. There are mixed reviews for this album -- in general, people who liked his previous album, Capricon, doesn't like this album, while those who didn't like Capricon likes The Era. I belong to the third group -- the one which likes both albums. In a way, it's more daring than his previous album, which, albeit good, left one feeling like Jay wasn't really trying to make any breakthrough in the album. I guess it's because he's had more time to complete this album this time around, so it doesn't sound rushed and he could experiment more, with some new effects, type of music, and ways of singing. All in all, it's a great album, and it's still the same old Jay that we know and love :).

1. 跨時代

At first when I listened to the preview of this song, I was like, "NOOOO, he's using autotune!" However, after listening to the full song, the autotune is actually alright; it blends in with the song and it's not too obvious. Besides that, the song itself is nice! I like the piano part in the middle. I always like Jay's rock-ish songs.

2. 說了再見

I almost cried the first time I listened to this song, even when I wasn't looking at the lyrics, because he was singing the lyrics clearly and the way of singing spells out his sadness, even though it's not as desperate as some other songs of his. His falsetto sounds so sad, IDEK. See, Jay can sing clearly when he feels that it suits the song better! SIGH, I LOVE JAY'S BALLADS. I love this song :). And it gets better after each listen.

3. 煙花易冷

The first 中国风 song in this album. It's a soothing song and the rap is nice, but other than that I have nothing much to say ^^;;.

4. 免費教學錄影帶

I think this is the first time Jay includes some English words in his songs? Must be all the Western influence from filing Green Hornet, haha ^^;;. I LOVE the spontaneity of the song! This song made me laugh out loud a couple of times, LOL. Especially the middle part, where there's a rather impressive guitar solo and suddenly the string broke HAHA. In the MV we see how he played that guitar solo; it's cool! But anyway, this is such an energetic, fun song, from the first second to the last. You can take my words on that! The lyrics are so playful, hehe ^^. He made a few funny sounds too (POK!), which are cute, but I think nothing can be cuter than those in 甜甜的 hahaha. The dance moves are cute too!

5. 好久不見

I like the lone, strong guitar in the beginning! He sings in Taiwanese in a good half of this song, which is not that great 'cos I don't understand it, but I don't mind haha. It's a very light-hearted, sweet song which will make you smile ^^.

6. 雨下一整晚

This song surprised me! It is the second 中国风 song in the album, which is already out of ordinary 'cos usually there's only one in each album, and moreover, the 中国风 element is only apparent from the instrumentals at the end of the first chorus onwards. Jay's singing is very good here! The beginning was totally gorgeous, with gentle-sounding guitar and his voice singing in a soft way, plus a bit of echo effect on the voice. He sings totally differently in the second verse, singing with a slightly hoarse voice and with a hint of a nonchalant attitude. I like the instruments used in this song a lot :)). There are a lot, but I can't name them due to my ignorance on Chinese instruments ^^;;. I feel that the ending is kinda abrupt; the song should be longer!

7. 嘻哈空姐

While in 跨時代 the use of autotune was okay, in this song, it turns me off -.-. Maybe it's because the autotune is used throughout this song, not just in the chorus like that in the earlier song. The song would have sounded much better if he had taken the autotune off the chorus. And the lyrics are so shallow; they totally turn me off. Its MV will have hot stewardesses in mini skirts asking, "Coffee, tea or me? -.- I am not gonna tell you that my favourite parts of this song are the "Ah~" sounds Jay makes at the end of a few sentences in the beginning, 'cos that sounds totally wrong, like HUH?!

8. 我落淚．情緒零碎

I like the piano melody! It's a really nice, soothing ballad, albeit sounds quite ordinary. 哭久了會累 也只是別人的以為.

9. 愛的飛行日記

Another collaboration with Gary. I guess Jay must really like working with Gary, huh xP. Not that I mind, because their voices go well together. Somehow all their songs give me a village feel, lol. This song reminds me a little of 陽光宅男 and 時光機, but other people might disagree with me.

10. 自導自演

This song reminds me of 对不起, especially because the strong beats in the background.

11. 超人不會飛

The first single off the album, which I had posted previously. I've grown to like this song a lot, and the lyrics too. Some parts of the lyrics made me laugh, but in general the whole song made me feel sorry for Jay, and well, perhaps celebrities in general. There is something about Jay's singing that is different here, and he used it in 說了再見 as well -- I can't put it into words but you'll perhaps notice it if you listen to the song, especially in the chorus part. I think Jay looks great in the MV :D.

Well, honestly, I like almost everything Jay makes. For me, 周杰倫 isn't just the name of a musician (or actor, director, whatever); it is also a brand of music, one totally unique genre that is different from the other genres. And I love that brand of music. That's why I LOVE JAY :).

周杰倫 - 超人不會飛

媽媽說很多事別太計較 只是使命感找到了我我睡不著
如果說罵人要有點技巧 我會加點旋律你會覺得 超屌
我的槍不會裝彈藥（彈藥） 所以放心不會有人倒（人倒）
我拍青蜂俠不需要替身 因為自信是我繪畫的顏料

我做很多事背後的意義遠比你們想像
拍個電視劇為了友情與十年前的夢想
收視率再高也難抗衡我的偉大理想
因為我的人生無需再多一筆那獎項
我不知道何時變成了社會的那榜樣
被狗仔拍不能比中指要大器的模樣（怎樣）

我唱的歌詞要有點文化
因為隨時會被當教材
CNN能不能等英文好一點再訪
時代雜誌封面能不能重拍
隨時隨地注意形象
要控制飲食不然就跟杜莎夫人蠟像的我不像（本來就不像）
好萊塢的中國戲院地上有很多手印腳印何時才能看見我的掌

喔如果超人會飛 那就讓我在空中停一停歇
再次俯瞰這個世界 會讓我覺得好一些
拯救地球好累 雖然有些疲憊但我還是會
不要問我哭過了沒
因為超人不能流眼淚

唱歌要拿最佳男歌手 拍電影也不能只拿個最佳新人
你不參加頒獎典禮就是沒禮貌 你去參加就是代表你很在乎
得獎時你感動落淚（落淚） 人家就會覺得你誇張做作（做作）
你沒表情別人就會說太囂張
如果你天生這個表情 那些人甚至會怪你媽媽（媽媽）
結果最後是別人在得獎 你也要給予充分的掌聲與微笑
開的車不能太好 住的樓不能太高
我到底是一個創作歌手還是好人好事代表
專輯一出就必須是冠軍 拍了電影就必須要大賣
只能說當超人真的好難

如果超人會飛（超人會飛） 那就讓我在空中停一停歇（停一停歇）
再次俯瞰這個世界 會讓我覺得好一些
拯救地球好累（地球好累） 雖然有些疲憊但我還是會（我還是會）
不要問我哭過了沒
因為超人不能流眼淚

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

I totally didn't know that Jay released his first single a few days ago, that the new album is out on 14th May, and that the pre-order already started 2 days ago. I'm off tomorrow, so I'm gonna go to CD Rama tomorrow morning to pre-order it :DD.

About the first single -- well, it's not fantastic, but it's not bad. I love the chorus. Usually I like Jay's rapping too, but here he sounds so.. lethargic, don't you think? But maybe that's to express the tiredness he feels, that is reflected in the lyrics. And his mumbling just got worse, even though it was getting better in the previous albums ^^;;. But anyway, I like the lyrics! Jay wrote them himself; they talk about what he's been through all these years in the entertainment industry. They are very honest, blunt and at some parts sarcastic.

Sigh why doesn't Youtube have a repeat button.

I can't wait for the new album :)).

HEH.

Apparently the tickets for Jay's concert on 24th July were sold out in 2hours+, and last night a second concert on the 23rd was announced. I was expecting the second concert to be announced a few days later, LOL. It's not that surprising since I experienced the mad rush for tickets myself, and I'm happy for Jay that the tickets sold that fast, but like I feared, there are people selling the tickets online at extremely high prices. Sigh, shame on those people D:<.

TOO MUCH SUGAR; I NEED TO RANT.

It's 10:20 am on a Wednesday morning, a day when I'm off from work and by normal standards, usually means that I'd still be sleeping now. However, I've been up since 1 hour and 12 minutes ago, because I was awakened by my friend's phone call, telling me that she couldn't get into Sistic's website because of too much traffic. (I was supposed to wake up before 9 to wait for her call but I overslept, heh.) I was shocked and immediately turned on my computer to try to get into the website. But I couldn't get in. I think I must be stupid to not expect that to happen; I mean, it's Jay Chou's concert, like hello?! After 20 minutes of refreshing the page, though, I got in! It was a miracle, I thought. However, the website was still lagging like hell and it took ages for me to even get to the booking page. Later, when I finally managed to get seats (section PC-1, row 29, seats 1-2), I clicked the "confirm booking" button one minute plus before the 10 minutes time limit was up, only to scream in horror when the time ran out because the page was lagging so goddamn much. So I went to the Sistic homepage again, but the most expensive category, Cat1, was all sold out. The portion of Cat2, 3 and 4 reserved for Titanium OCBC card which is entitled to 10% discount, were also all sold out. So even if we were to book the Cat2/3/4, we were gonna be sitting at the back of those regions. That was 9:50+. So I gave up and told my friend that we should wait for them to open up another day. But out of curiosity, at 10:02, I went to see the tickets again. And to my surprise, it showed that there were limited tickets for Cat1! So I clicked the "book tickets" button, squealing as I did, and the best seats I got were at PB-2, row 32, seats 1-2, which are obviously way at the back of the region, but I couldn't care less. I immediately went to try booking, but when I pressed the "confirm booking" button, the page couldn't be displayed like ARGH. So I patiently pressed the back button, filled in all the details and tried again. And I FINALLY got through! So there, I'm going to be watching Jay's concert on 24th July ^^.

I was reading my posts from 3 years back when I was trying to get tickets for his previous concert. It wasn't as hectic back then, but I spent every day hoping for a second day and then queued up two hours before the Sictic outlet was open for the tickets lol ^^;;. I really hope that they are gonna open up another day for the concert, for the sake of the fans who can't get tickets to this one. I'm sure that a lot of the fans are emailing Sistic requesting for it, like I almost did when I couldn't get tickets just now, so I think the organisers will be more than happy to explore the possibility of a second day, since it means more profits for them. So it will be up to Jay's schedule and whether the Indoor Stadium is available on the 23rd/25th. The latter shouldn't be a problem, since there's nothing scheduled on both days as of now. So it's all dependent on Jay's schedule. All the best, people :)!

It's now 11:20. I've been refreshing the seats availability page every 15 minutes, and it's so exciting to watch LOLOL. All the categories are either sold out or have only single seats left. I think all the tickets are going to be gone by today, haha. He's going to break his own record that he set with his previous concert :D! I just hope that there won't be people who sell the tickets online for gastronomical prices, like what happened the previous time. Somehow I think it will happen again though >.<.

Too much excitement this early in the day must be bad for health, tsk.

*snorts*

I went to Plaza Singapura after work to buy something just now, and apparently Jay Chou and Lin Chi Ling came. I totally forgot that it was today, until I saw the huge crowds and heard the baffling noise, LOL. I saw them from afar when I was going down the escalator, but I didn't stay to watch as it was impossible; I'm not that tall and there were really lots of people around the area. Besides, I'm still kinda disappointed that Jay's not releasing any album this year, so I'm not in the mood to even cheer for him. He's got god-knows-how-many movies coming out, though. Also, he hardly ever comes here to promote his albums, but he comes here for every single movie he's acted in. (I can't remember whether he came for Curse of The Golden Flower, but that's beside the point.) Sheesh, I'm just disappointed.

Tomorrow's my first off day after 4 days of work! Super tired, man. I'm gonna sleep in and slack :DD.

Birthday Post: Jay Chou.

Happy 30th, Jay ♥♥♥! Wish you more years of inspiration, success and health. Please remember that I love you, no matter what :).

spamspam.

1.














Honestly when I first saw this picture I thought he looks as pretty as the girl; and that's when he still has his short hair. lmao.

Eun Ji Won will be joined by Hongki and actress Yoo Seol Ah in hosting SBS Inkigayo. Glad that Hongki is getting more popular these days :). But I kinda wished they'd let the other members do something, too. (Minhwan is acting in a drama, though. Seriously, I'm starting to think he's the best-looking member out of the 5 *__*. Somebody save me~!) And hope Hongki won't be overworked again, what with his upcoming drama and stuff.


2. Taeyeon will be appearing on WGM together with Jung Hyungdon, that guy who frequently irritates the hell out of everyone. Junjin was actually rumoured to appear instead, but he won't, and you won't believe how thankful I am, and not because I'd be jealous. But you know why already. Anyway, I'm not a fan of Taeyeon (I only like her 2 solo songs and her voice, but I don't think I like her very much =X), but I still feel bad for her. And I pray for Hyungdon's safety; hope he won't be ambushed by SNSD fanboys or something.


3. [090109] Jay Chou Plans Sci-fi TV Serial

Taiwan's popular singer-actor Jay Chou is set to produce, direct and act a 20-episode Sci-Fi TV series titled "Xiong Mao Xia", which literally means "Panda Man", the United Daily News reports.

Members of the music group Nan Quan Mama, who are also close friends of Jay's, will be cast as the leading roles. Pop idol Jerry Yan, singing group S.H.E. and actress Zhou Xun are also expected to guest star in the trendy drama.

"Jay has been thinking about filming a trendy drama for long. Indeed, it is still under close discussions now. But the exact schedule is not set yet," Jay's manager responded conservatively.

Uhm. Because it's Jay, I believe he can do well. But my first reaction to this? "shitDAMN not another one." I'd rather he produce 3 albums in 3 different genres/language/whatever per year or something, to be really honest. But still, good luck, Jay!


4. The ratings for the first episode (which is just a special episode, not a real episode, I think) of Boys Over Flowers got 14.3%, which is not bad :). I don't think I'll be watching it soon, though. After the "A"s? haha.


5. 我其实还满喜欢亞綸的。xP

S.H.E - 安靜了

:D

^print-screened from kkbox. It's one day after Jay's album release and all 11 songs are in the top 20 (8 are in the top 10), with the album #1. And I found it so amusing that Jay's previous two albums are back in top 20 albums, LOL. (TWO, not just one, get that.) :DD

Move over, noobs. Jay is back. xDDD

it's tomorrow =].

Can't wait to receive Jay's album tomorrow. The cover looks.. uhm, kinda weird, but I don't really care; I just wanna hear the songs. Two more MVs are already released, but I think I'll wait one more day and listen to the whole album first, then watch the MVs. The album is already released in China today, and according to some fans, the CD version of the songs are no different with the leaked versions. Guess the "the leaked songs aren't the final versions" is just a lie, eh? But again, it's not as if I cared. *rolls eyes*

The play count of 說好的幸福呢 (2-minute preview) has surpassed 하루 하루 그대라서's o.0.


只是回憶的音樂盒還旋轉著　要怎麼停呢

bomb.

Two bombs exploded, yesterday and today. Five more are coming tomorrow.


Jay's album release is postponed to the 15th, since I think Jay is modifying his songs or something due to the leak of the album online. I hope he won't be too pressurised to change the songs and affect the quality of the songs. (But what am I talking about? He's Jay.) I was initially disappointed, but well, it's kinda good in a way; I won't be overloaded with emotions tomorrow. And there's gonna be an additional set of poker cards for the pre-order gift too ^^. The pre-order sales has already exceeded last year's, anyway. But it's like, one-sixth of a certain group's, lol.

Here's the preview of Jay's upcoming second single, 說好的幸福呢. The lyrics are written by 方文山; they're sad, but good. I think I'm gonna like this song a lot; the way Jay sings it is.. I don't know, more desperate? I love you, Jay ♥.

EDIT: I already love this song a lot. I've been replaying it all night, probably listened to the preview more than 100 times already. I almost didn't want to watch my videos and stuff 'cos I wanted to keep listening to the song. haha.
