Somewhere Over the Rainbow

Someone at IDF posted various versions of this song and I tried downloading some of them. Katharine did amazing on this song in AI and it's one of the showstopper performances of the season. Mcphans or Kat-haters love it! Haha!

So I heard Judy Garland singing it.. it was okay. It's very theatrical. Leann Rimes did a country version. It was good too. But the best version I heard was Eva Cassidy's... it's super amazing! A lot better than Kat's (Sorry, but the Mcpheever in me was gone for a while when I heard Eva singing). I love the guitar, the arrangement, it's just a lovely rendition...and just BEAUTIFUL!!! Her voice is so angelic and she sang it so smoothly. I wanna cry...lol.

I also got to download various versions of the song Someone to Watch Over Me, another Mcphee song. Ella Fitzgerald's rendition was very jazzy. Renne Olstead sang it very slowly and smoothly. I love Sheena Easton's version. She sounded so different on this song... very different from her other famous songs like Almost Over You and For Your Eyes Only. I still like the way Kat sang it... the vocals wasn't really perfect but it was very classy.

s.l.a.c.k.

Okay, so I’ve been to the beach twice already this summer and I still feel it’s not enough! Hee!


AI

Idol is already over. Hicks won. My bet Katharine placed second. It’s okay because I know she didn’t deserve to win. Haha! My favorite Mcpheever performances are:

  1. Since I Fell For You (Her best vocals)
  2. Somewhere Over the Rainbow (She was totally pimped on this performance but she deserved it. This is definitely a showstopper!)
  3. Someone to Watch Over Me (Classy!)
  4. Until You Come Back To Me
  5. Think encore
  6. Black Horse and the Cherry Tree

She didn’t deserve the AI crown because she was freakin inconsistent. When she’s good, she’s really good. When she’s bad, she’s really bad. Toink! Hehe! Nevertheless, she’s still pretty. Despite her horrible outfits on certain weeks, she’s still consistently beautiful!

This face should appear on cinemas! I heard she was offered to play Wonder Woman! Waah! Hehe.. Why not!

Lee Dong Wook (My Girl)

LDW is my new JIS… I mean my new Korean crush. Interestingly, both guys were born in 1981…the year I was born. But I’m months older than them. I’m a June baby, JIS is July and LDW is November. So I’m still older. Yay! Where did I get all these info? Google!

I don’t usually watch Koreanovelas. I mean, local networks have already shown quite a number of K-series here in the Philippines. But I’ve only watched only three series in full. The first one was Lovers in Paris – still my all-time favorite series…well technically. The actors weren’t that good-looking but damn, the chemistry and acting were superb! Next was Full House. I know many loved this series. But I wasn’t that a huge fan. Its strong points… Song Hye Kyo is very pretty and her chemistry with Rain is commendable too. The story is simple, no tragic plotlines, and it’s so fun to watch. And the latest was Memories of Bali. This series is pretty stressful to watch, especially if you are a Paolo-Erika/Jaemin-Soojung shipper. It has so many flaws (especially the character progress of Erika who was absolutely confusing!). ‘Nuff said about its controversial ending. I wasn’t that convinced in the end that E indeed loved P! Pweh! Nonetheless, I still love this series! LOL! The acting of the four leads, especially that of JIS, were excellent! Plus the JIS-HJW tandem is addictive! Hehe!

Going back to LDW… I think he and Lee Da Hae (these names are so confusing!) are both eye-candy! I’ll see if I’m going to like this show. Some of the comic scenes so far are quite corny and exaggerated. There are many clichés too. But I guess the reason why I’m going to follow this series is because I think the tandem is hot. But in fairness, I did laugh hard at some scenes. It’s like… I know it’s corny but I still laugh at them. Hehe! Well, well, well… let’s see.
