Nokia Music Explorer : Morning Anthems

Posted by IcedNyior on January 19, 2010  |  No Comments

I’m sure everyone has a morning anthem – A song that they really like and gets em going in the morning. Listening to your morning anthem gives you semangat to start the day. Here are two of mine.

Robbie William – I Will talk and Hollywood Will Listen
This was a fren’s morning anthem, he played it every morning and because I hitched a ride from him to my college, I had to listen to it as well. After a few days, its clear why. Its a powerful song to encourage yourself that even a big entity like Hollywood will listen to you.

The chorus goes, "I will talk and Hollywood will listen/ See them bow at my every word/ Mr. Spielberg look just what you’re missing/ Doesn’t that seem a little absurd/ Bow at my every word "

Ke$ha – Tik Tok
I know this is a weird turn frm something classic like Robbie Williams but this is such an upbeat and happy song in the morning. Not to mention it makes reference to Jack, as in Jack Daniels, one of my fave drinks. LOL!

The first verse goes : "Wake up in the morning feeling like P Diddy (Hey, what up girl?)/ Put my glasses on, I’m out the door – I’m gonna hit this city (Let’s go)/ Before I leave, brush my teeth with a bottle of Jack/ Cause when I leave for the night, I ain’t coming back

Enjoy!

Rumour : Beyonce’s concert in Malaysia cancelled? (Update: Postponed!)

Posted by IcedNyior on October 19, 2009  |  5 Comments

There’s rumours going around in Twitter that Beyonce’s Malaysian concert on October 25th, 2009 might be cancelled. She cancelled her planned concert in 2007 following protest threats by Malaysia’s opposition Islamic party (source).

Most people heard it from someone (an unidentified source, of course) that the Maxis Marketing Manager said it might be cancelled and most likely to be announced tomorrow.

Also, on her site http://www.beyonceonline.com/my/events there’s no event listing of her Malaysian concert. Hurm..

Lets see what happens tomorrow.

I personally would be pissed if its cancelled because I turned down an accommodation sponsored trip to a resort in Redang for 4 days 3 nights to review an event & the resort. :’(

Update I :  6.15pm 19 October
A tweet from maxis’s official twitter account @maxiscomms has stated that Beyonce’s Concert is not cancelled but postponed. Below is the tweet. Am still waiting for an official statement tho.

Update II – Its CONFIRMED. Beyonce’s concert has been officially postponed. Read more HERE.

I got stuck on this song since I first heard it on Yahoo Launchcast a few weeks back. And now the local radio stations have started playing it. So I thought that you guys might want to download it :D

Am I supposed to put my life on hold
Because you don’t know how to act,
And you don’t know where your life is going?
Am I supposed to be torn apart,
Broken-hearted, in a corner crying ’bout it,
Pardon me if I don’t show it

I don’t care, if I never see you again, I’ll be alright.
Take this final piece of advice, and get yourself together,
But either way, baby I’m gone.

I’m so over it, I’ve been there and back.
Changed all my numbers, and just in case you’re wondering,
I got that new "I’m a single girl" swag,
Got me with my girls and we’re singing it.sing!

Na Na Na Na, Na Na Na Na, Hey Hey Hey, Goodbye
Na Na Na Na, Na Na Na Na, Hey Hey Hey, Goodbye

Cut my hair cause it reminded me of you,
I know you like the long ‘do, had to switch my attitude up.
Thinking of changing up how I ride, no more on the passengers side,
Too bad you miss out on the way that I drive it

I don’t care, if I never see you again, I’ll be alright.
Take this final piece of advice, and get yourself together,
But either way, baby I’m gone. Oohh.

I’m so over it, I’ve been there and back.
Changed all my numbers, and just in case you’re wondering,
I got that new "I’m a single girl" swag,
Got me with my girls and we’re singing it.sing!

Na Na Na Na, Na Na Na Na, Hey Hey Hey, Goodbye
Na Na Na Na, Na Na Na Na, Hey Hey Hey, Goodbye

Hey Hey Hey, Hey Hey Hey, He He Hey, Goodbye.

I’m so over it, I’ve been there and back.
Changed all my numbers, and just in case you’re wondering,
I got that new "I’m a single girl" swag,
Got me with my girls and we’re singing it.sing!

Na Na Na Na (hey), Na Na Na Na (hey), Hey Hey Hey, Goodbye
Na Na Na Na (hey), Na Na Na Na (hey), Hey Hey Hey, Goodbye
Na Na Na Na (hey), Na Na Na Na (hey), Hey Hey Hey, Goodbye
Na Na Na Na (hey), Na Na Na Na (hey), Hey Hey Hey, Goodbye

[Download] NKOTB ft Lady Gaga – Big Girl Now + lyrics

Posted by IcedNyior on May 14, 2009  |  5 Comments

I never would have thought that New Kids on the Block would collaborate with Lady Gaga and come up with this kind of songs. I’ve always associated NKOTB with love songs with touching lyrics in romantic settings.

This song has a nice twist to it. Download links after the lyrics. Enjoy!

I’m a big boy, you’re a big girl now, now, now…
I’m a big girl, you’re a big boy now, now, now…

Back in the day, when you were young (It was fun)
Little girl, didn’t think you were the one (Now, here I come)
Your sexy walk, your sexy talk (That’s what’s up)
Little girl, you’re clearly not the same kid from the block

I ain’t that little girl no more, not no more, that’s for sure
Boy, your get ass out on the floor, lets explore, lets explore

Chorus:
You know I like the way you move it (move it)
Girl, you’re all grown up and now you’re ready to let it go
Wanna be a big girl ’bout to prove it (prove it)
With a body like that, you’ve got a grown man ready to blow

I’m a big boy, you’re a big girl now, now, now
I’m a big girl, you’re a big boy now, now, now

Back in the day, when I was young (Kinda dumb)
But I always knew I’d be the one (Now, here you come)
Gonna get you wet, gonna make you sweat (Girl, I bet)
Gonna give you something you ain’t never gonna forget

You ain’t no little girl no more, no, that’s for sure, yup, booty like oh…
Wanna work it like a big girl, lets explore
Now, drop it to the floor, baby, get more

Chorus 2x

I’m a big boy, you’re a big girl now, now, now
I’m a big girl, you’re a big boy now, now, now
I’m a big boy, you’re a big girl now, now, now
I’m a big girl, you’re a big boy now, now, now

I’ve been waiting too long for you to get naughty
Beat this, spank me daddy, come on touch my body

See that good things come to those who wait
Come take me on before it’s too late

Oh… Baby, oh yeah, you know I like the way…

Chorus 2x

Hey, hey, hey… Hey, hey, hey…
A grown man ready to blow…

Download: Yuna/Yunalis Full Album & Demo Songs

Posted by IcedNyior on January 7, 2009  |  63 Comments

I’m back from my holiday, but I’ve got lots of work to catch up with so I haven’t been blogging. But while you wait for a more regular update, here’s something to keep you happy.

Yuna is a singer that I’ve mentioned in my blog a few times. I remember listening to her wayy back early 2008. At that time she was basically an unknown (and sometimes known as Yunalis). In fact I couldn’t even find any lyrics for her song “Dan Sebenarnya” so much so that I had to type it out by ear. LOL!

Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.

Anyway, one year later and she has so many more songs to her name. I have about 21 of her songs – some with 2 versions, the demo & the EP version. I’ve been wanting to post this for ages but only got round to arranging the songs and getting the full track listing today. Click the spoiler to download. Enjoy!

Hari Bintang Jatuh – Aftermath

Posted by IcedNyior on October 29, 2008  |  No Comments

Phew, finally its over. And everyone – especially the hardworking organizers – can now breathe a huge sigh of relief.

For me, the day started the night before. Aree, Pam, and Jazzy came over the night before and we were baking, smoking (well they were smoking), ordered McD, waited 1 hr for the food to arrive, realized that they forgot 1 large fries, waited another hr for the fries. Chopped, mixed, beat, stirred, realize that we couldn’t melt the chocolate, realized that the coffee refused to brew, cut cakes, put some in our mouths, wrapped cakes in plastic and so on and so forth. Believe it or not, after all the washing up and sweeping and cleaning, we finished at 4am and the girls went back.

I checked my mail before going to bed and realized that we needed to go there around 8AM to set up our booth and secure a place where we would setup our stall. Didn’t realize it earlier because I couldn’t make it for the briefing (I sent Omar as a wakil. Tengkiu Omar ;))

 
Our wares – Seriously so much cakes/goodies right?

So after going to bed at 4am, we had to get up at 7.30 am, drove down to Ampang at 8.30am then deposited the tables, chairs and clothes rack. Then came home, picked my sister, picked up all our goodies, picked up drinks from Tesco, bought tons of ice then headed off to Ampang again.

Set up shop, watched people go by, listened to good music from talented local artists, bumped into friends from persetankan – jasmine, omar, ikhmal, etc – with the sweet Wani, surprisingly met an old classmate – Adam – who was reciting one of his poems.

 
Performances & Bazaar

There was one or two things I didn’t really like. Everyone got the email to start setting up the booth at 8am onwards. I know this is Malaysia but you shouldn’t be an ass and come late and then ask me to move over to the other side and make faces if I look reluctant. Secondly the event was more of a performance, rather than a bazaar. Made me regret just a little because couldn’t enjoy it.

But anyway, there are really good things that I liked. The outside area was spacious and not too cramped. Perhaps it would be better if the inside was bigger so that it could fit more people tho. I absolutely LOVED the fact that we (exhibitors/stall owners/performers) had designated parking. I seriously seriously appreciate that a lot! Committee members were all very helpful and nice – despite the fact that they probably didn’t sleep the night before. I know how hard it is to organize something like that.

Personally, I feel that Wani Ardy’s Hari Bintang Jatuh was a success. It was a experiment for me – learned some things that day.

~ Kudos to the hardworking committee. Very well organized
~ Shoutout to Jazzy, Pam & Feli for being involved. Thanks to Aree who also helped out – even tho she FFK at the last min. lol
~ It was nice bumping to frens. Bella, sorry takleh lepak lama. Afdzal + kawan, thanks for coming, hope u guys enjoyed urself
