Cueshe @ NCBA - 02.24.12

Cueshe at NCBA’s Foundation week 02.24.12.

Honestly,I didn’t expect to be there. Earlier yesterday, me and my college friends just enjoyed hanging out in our school waiting for the concert. Yet, I already decided to go home after riding the one-hell-caterpillar! I wanted to live! So I went home.  HeHe. I sat down and played my psp yet I remembered that it would be fun.  And I guess I can share it in my blog! Naisipan lang pumunta kase tutal naman Free Admission. And also invited by them. The more the merrier daw! I was there with my college friends. We went there and di pa ganoon masyadong hype yung event. Wala pa masyadong audience. And besides, mga college bands pa lang naman yung mga tumutugtog. The concert started around 7 yet the party begins around 8:30, I guess, after the Chido Band performed which Sir Paul was there. Before Cueshe, there were games. The hosts selected three people from the audience asking them to sing songs of Cushe. Nika, B.A. Student sang ‘Pasensya Na’. The other girl that I don’t know her name who is a B.S.A. student sang ‘Stay’. And Ryan, who has the most number of ‘fans’ sang ‘Borrowed Time’.  The crowd kept yelling ‘Ilabas mo na yung Cueshe’ some said ‘Tagal!’, which is true naman. Excited? Lol. But before that they began an abother hilarious game. They picked three students again. And this time they’ll dance ‘Dougie’.  The only girl there was really good at dancing. And this guy who can’t really dance the ‘Douhie’ well yet he gets the most outnumbered claps and shouts from us! Such a hilarious game!
Then the main event went on. Sobrang nakakatuwa at saya kase andun lahat ng college friends mo. And lahat din kayo sumusigaw at tumatalon until the event ends. Mga di mo ineexpect pumunta, andun :P Saway! And talagang nasa gitnang harap kame sa stage! Sayang di ko nakuha yung pick sa gitara ni Ruben! Mahal na kita, RUBEN! Galing din ng Lead! Ayon, picture-picture and videos din! Kaso fuckshet yan! Nalowbat camera ko after so many videos and pistures na na-take ko! Pero ayos lang, nahawakan ko naman si Ruben!  He’s all smiling talaga kahit may technicalities sa mics ata, he’s all game at playing talaga! <3<3<3
Ayon happy happy after! Well, backt o school nanaman sa Monday! Shet! One-Yime- ALIW lang kagabe!

"I'm immensely proud to have been asked to perform at this year's GRAMMY Awards," said the "Rolling in the Deep" singer. "It's an absolute honor to be included in such a night, and for it to be my first performance in months is very exciting and of course nerve-racking, but what a way to get back into it all."

She also  tweeted here excitement: "Ima be, Ima be singing at the Grammys. It's been so long I started to forget I was a singer! I can't wait, speak soon xx."

Other confirmed acts performing at the Staples Center, LA for the awards show include Jason Aldean, Kelly Clarkson, Glen Campbell, The Band Perry, Blake Shelton, Coldplay, Rihanna, Foo Fighters, Bruno Mars, Paul McCartney, Nicki Minaj and Taylor Swift. The show will be hosted by rapper LL Cool J.Alicia Keys and Bonnie Raitt played "A Sunday Kind Of Love" by Etta James who also died this year.

After weeks of speculation, it has finally been announced that Adele will be performing at the 54th annual Grammy Awards on Feb. 12, marking her first live performance since undergoing vocal surgery last year.

"I'm immensely proud to have been asked to perform at this year's GRAMMY Awards," said Adele in a statement. "It's an absolute honor to be included in such a night, and for it to be my first performance in months is very exciting and of course nerve-racking, but what a way to get back into it all."

HOORAY Adele!

#It Will Rain - Bruno Mars

Now Playing
#It Will Rain - Bruno Mars

This was co-written and produced by The Smeezingtons, was released officially released on iTunes on September 27th, while the soundtrack disc hit stores on November 8th, 2011 - Bruno described the new song as "think of the darker side of love". This is perfection! Loving the melody, the lyrics and Bruno's passionate singing! This is definitely the highlight from the entire 'Twilight' soundtrack.


#It Will Rain - Bruno Mars Lyrics:
If you ever leave me baby,
Leave some morphine at my door
‘Cause it would take a whole lot of medication
To realize what we used to have,
We don’t have it anymore.

There’s no religion that could save me
No matter how long my knees are on the floor
So keep in mind all the sacrifices I’m makin’
Will keep you by my side
Will keep you from walkin’ out the door.

[Chorus]
Cause there’ll be no sunlight
If I lose you, baby
There’ll be no clear skies
If I lose you, baby
Just like the clouds
My eyes will do the same, if you walk away
Everyday it will rain, rain, rain...

I’ll never be your mother’s favorite
Your daddy can’t even look me in the eye
Oooh if I was in their shoes, I’d be doing the same thing
Sayin there goes my little girl
Walkin’ with that troublesome guy

But they’re just afraid of something they can’t understand
Oooh well little darlin’ watch me change their minds
Yeah for you I’ll try I’ll try I’ll try I’ll try
I’ll pick up these broken pieces ’til I’m bleeding
If that’ll make you mine

[Chorus]
Cause there’ll be no sunlight
If I lose you, baby
There’ll be no clear skies
If I lose you, baby
Just like the clouds
My eyes will do the same if you walk away
Everyday it will rain, rain, rain...

[Bridge]
Don’t just say, goodbye
Don’t just say, goodbye
I’ll pick up these broken pieces ’til I’m bleeding
If that’ll make it right

[Chorus]
Cause there’ll be no sunlight
If I lose you, baby
There’ll be no clear skies
If I lose you, baby
Just like the clouds
My eyes will do the same if you walk away
Everyday it will rain, rain, rain...
 
Kinda sweet song. This made me realize that Bruno Mars had really great voice. Damn. I just love his song and his voice here. Both compliments thumbs up! God! It really rained in here! Bruno Mars got the weather on!

Krissy & Erika:: Sisters Collide

Krissy & Erika
Sisters Collide: You-tube Sensation


Krissy and Ericka are Filipina sisters who are the au courant singing prodigy in the Philippines. Regine Kristine “Krissy” Villongco and Ericka Renee Villongco have initiated youthful twists of pop acoustic in the local music scene. The duo is only 10 months distinct from one another. Krissy is 15 years of old who whines most of their songs while Ericka is 16 years of old who brewed the back-up vent for her sister. The duo has prodigious endowment because at their puerile age they are already egregious performers, guitarists and song writers.

The youth pop acoustic duo first album self-titled (Krissy and Ericka) was emancipated last July has been redeeming awesome reviews and applause from Filipino audience. The album has 10 cuts, five rendition which the duo gave modern flairs and five ingenious songs that evinced their ingenuity and talent.
When You Say Nothing At All was initially sung by Keith Whitley and for many years, innumerable singers spawned various version of the song. Krissy and Ericka also engender their own interpretation of the song in pop acoustic idiosyncrasy.


12:51 (Original) are now sold at local CD stores. 
Official Music Video

Here are some of their videos:
The single entitled Sisters are one of the seminal sound track from the album of Krissy and Ericka. It was composed by Marcus Davis, the sought singer, song writer and US producer. It is a song dedicated for the zeal of siblings who have been there per thick and thin. This is a fascinating track that will undoubtedly inspire your heart and be grateful of having a sister.


It is befitting to wrap this review about Krissy and Ericka’s self-titled debut with their current and first single: Up Up Down Down. The song is perhaps coercing a guy to fall in love with a lady. The setting of the music video was shot in a carnival. Krissy and Ericka’s latest hit is ascending in the music chart in airwaves and music channel.
