Happy Birthday to Khairul and SereneI just got back from Eastpoint Mall... along with 3 more Amigos, I took many pictures of about 20 beautiful babes there; they are from the 2009 Miss Singapore World pageant. Yeah, you bet my pants got tight for a long time... from ogling at the babes in tight bikinis!! :-p
Anyway, I am feeling a bit tired to upload pictures on Facebook, so that I can do tomorrow. In the meantime, I would like to share with you a new audio pack I bought recently from HMV at City Link Mall...
Michael Jackson: The Collection!!! Released this year, presumably sometime after MJ's sudden passing... contains 5 albums in 1 box!! It costs 42 dollars... that's about $8.40 per CD (about 70% discount, woo hoo)! The 5 studio albums contained within the boxset are...
- Off the Wall (1979; special edition in 2001)
- Thriller (1982; special edition in 2001)
- Bad (1987; special edition in 2001)
- Dangerous (1991; special edition in 2001)
- Invincible (2001)
I was personally quite surprised to see "Invincible" (MJ's last studio album, and his least successful album) as the 5th album within this amazing collector's item. I was actually expecting the slightly more successful "HIStory" album to be included... you know, the one that contains hit songs like "You Are Not Alone", "Earth Song" and so on. Another gripe was the lack of lyric booklets, but I'm actually cool with that... I mean, we can still check out the lyrics from the WWW, right? :-)
Happy Birthday to Collen Lim, Shi Qian and Shi YingIt was certainly not an easy decision to make... turning down an invite for a friend's birthday party yesterday. Then again, I finished work at 7 pm, and for me to go all the way from West Coast to Downtown East with so little cash in my link card isn't going to do me any favors. So best to get back home and have dinner with family instead.
As you all know, Fiona Xie has surprised everyone by pulling out from the Channel 8 year-end drama "Together" in a moment of surprise, and to make things worse, she switched off her cellphone and according to her manager, was reported to have flown to another country!!! That is totally unetheical and unprofessional for Fiona to just UP and leave without any explanation. No wonder some of my friends remarked that Fiona can be labelled as "Mas Selamat No 2", with her mysterious disappearance. In the meantime, her replacement had been announced, and it turns out to be Eelyn Kok, a much better and more competent actress (she nominated twice for Best Supporting Actress eh) who is better known for playing third parties or bitchy women. I feel Eelyn SHOULD have been included in the batch of MDC Princesses a long time ago... pity she doesn't seem to have any endorsement deals yet.
Another thing is, I emailed to a few friends some confidential stuff recently, and when I asked one of them whether she had seen the pics, all I got from that friend was just a bland "ya". I was so nice to send the pictures to her by my own freewill, and all I got in return was just one lousy "YA"??? Whats up with that, seriously!! Yaya Papaya!!! So much for an obvious lack of gratitude... how about "That's very nice, thank you very much"??? Even if she may not like the person in the photos as much as she did a few years back???
And if that wasn't enough, she even went on to say that she didn't like it when I put up pictures of Michael Jackson for my profile picture; matter of fact, she feels that "we all know you still can't get over MJ's passing". What exactly did she mean by "we all know"? Is she speaking on behalf of herself, or the people who may not like my method of remembering MJ? Man, all of that certainly cut deep into my heart... :-(
I am fully aware that some people on Facebook may not approve of my constant putting up of MJ pics, but that does not mean that I am 'devastated over MJ's death at a full-blown scale', that's just way too unhealthy!!! You have no idea what it is to be a big fan of MJ, and never will!! But even so, I am not one to mourn the demise of Jacko 'til August 29th', that would be way too insane. With that, I shall put up a song to get back at those who disapprove of my methods of remembrance... so Miss S, tell me very honestly if you're the Ghost of Jealousy.
Michael Jackson- Ghosts
There's a ghost down in the hall
There's a ghoul upon the bed
There's something in the walls
There's blood up on the stairs
And it's floating through the room
And there's nothing I can see
And I know that that's the truth
Because now it's onto me
I don't understand it... hey
I don't understand it! Aaow!!
There's a tappin' in the floor
There's a creak behind the door
There's a rocking in the chair
But there's no-one sitting there
There's a ghostly smell around
But nobody to be found
And a coughin' and a yawnin'
Where a restless soul is going
Don't understand it... hey!
Don't understand it
Hey.
And who gave you the right to shake my family?
And who gave you the right to shake my baby, she needs me
And who gave you the right to shake my family tree?
You put a knife in my back, shot an arrow in me!
Tell me are you the ghost of jealousy
The ghost of jealousy!
There's a tappin in the floor
There's a creak behind the door
There's a rocking in the chair
But nobody's sitting there
There's a ghostly smell around
But nobody to be found
And a coughin' and a yawnin'
Where a restless soul is going
Don't understand it! (got a ghost somewhere in the walls)
Yeah Yeah! (got a ghost somewhere in the walls)
Don't understand it! (got a ghost somewhere in the walls)
(got a ghost somewhere in the walls)
Your just a dog gone! (got a ghost somewhere in the walls)
Aaow! (got a ghost somewhere in the walls) X4
And who gave you the right to scare my family?
And who gave you the right to scare my baby, she needs me
And who gave you the right to shake my family tree?
And who gave you the right to take intrusion, to see me?
And who gave you the right to shake my family?
And who gave you the right to hurt my baby, she needs me
And who gave you the right to shake my family tree?
You put a knife in my back, shot an arrow in me!
Tell me are you the ghost of jealousy...
A SUCKIN' ghost of jealousy... Aaow!
And who gave you the right to shake my family?
And who gave you the right to shake my baby, she needs me
And who gave you the right to shake my family tree?
And who gave you the right to take, intrusion to see me?
And who gave you the right to hurt my family?
And who gave you the right hurt my baby, she needs me
And who gave you the right to shake my family tree?
You put a knife in my back, shot an arrow in me!
Tell me are you the ghost of jealousy
The ghost of jealousy... Aaow!!
Dog gone!
But there's no doubt about it, piece of mind
Tell me are you the ghost of jealousy

Note 6: "ABC" was a 1970 number-one hit song by The Jackson 5. "ABC" was written with the same design as "I Want You Back in My Arms", and was first heard on American Bandstand in February 1970. The song also beat The Beatles song "Let It Be" out of the number two spot on the Billboard Hot 100 that same year. "ABC" was also number one on the soul singles chart for four weeks.
Like most of the other early Jackson 5 hits, "ABC" was written and produced by The Corporation, a team composed of Motown chief Berry Gordy, Freddie Perren, Alphonzo Mizell, and Deke Richards and recorded in Los Angeles, California, away from the old Motown studio at Hitsville USA in Detroit, Michigan.
"ABC" was the first single from the second Jackson 5ive album, ABC, issued with a cover of Diana Ross & the Supremes "The Young Folks" as the B-side. It is today one of the Jackson 5's signature songs.
Note 7: "Can You Feel It" was a hit recording by funk and soul group The Jacksons, recorded in March 1980 and released in September 1980 as the first track on their album Triumph.
Written by brothers Jackie (oldest Jacson brother) and Michael, the song featured solo leads by Randy and Michael. Released as a single in 1981, the song reached #77 on the pop charts and number thirty on the R&B charts in United States, but reached number six in the UK and number two in The Netherlands in 1981.
The accompanying video, directed by Bruce Gowers and Robert Abel, was noted for its remarkable special effects created by Robert Abel and Associates. In 2001, it was voted one of the 100 best videos of all time, in a poll to mark the 20th anniversary of MTV.
Note 8: "Blame It on the Boogie" is a disco song, originally released in 1978 both by English singer-songwriter Mick Jackson as well as — in its most famous version — by The Jacksons and was later also covered by numerous other artists. The song was co-authored by Mick Jackson (credited as Michael George Jackson-Clarke) as well as Mick's brother, David Jackson, and Elmar Krohn.
Mick Jackson's recording was produced by Sylvester Levay with the single released on the Atlantic Records label on both 7" and 12" vinyl and peaked at number 15 in the UK Singles Chart on 21 October 1978, and number 54 in the United States. The Jacksons' best known rendition of the song (released on their 1978 album Destiny) reached number three on the U.S. R&B chart.
Note 9: "Show You the Way to Go" was a song written by Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff, and released as a single in 1977 originally by The Jacksons. It was the first number-one song for the group in Britain. It was later covered by Dannii Minogue.
A 1976 hit for The Jackson 5 now known as The Jacksons after their departure from Motown nearly two years prior. Though the move made it easy for the brothers to write and produce their own material, they spent a couple of years under the production and direction of fellow soul pioneers Kenny Gamble & Leon Huff and under their own label, Philadelphia International. This was one of the songs that the producers backed the young men on and for lead singer Michael professionally, he had shown a lot of vocal growth. Marlon, However, had a back up part. As the song reached a bridge, Gamble & Huff had 18-year-old Michael hitting notes and bridges that he probably would've been restricted to sing in at Motown. Michael's breakdown possibly helped the song reach #6 R&B, #28 Pop and #1 UK. In fact, it was a milestone overseas for the Jacksons because it was the family unit's first #1 single in the UK.
A year later, the Jacksons left Philadelphia International for Epic where their greatest success was near. Michael has said that this is one of his favorites during this period and that he was surprised that it wasn't a bigger hit.
Note 10: "Say Say Say" is a song by Paul McCartney and Michael Jackson. The track was written by the duo, and produced by George Martin for McCartney's fifth solo album, Pipes of Peace (1983). The song was the pair's second duet to be released, following "The Girl Is Mine" for Jackson's Thriller (1982), however, it had been recorded one year before, at the same time as McCartney's Tug of War (1982) album. The single became Jackson's seventh top ten hit in a year upon its release in October 1983. "Say Say Say" was a number one hit in the US and peaked at number two in the UK. Number one in Canada, Finland, Italy, Norway and Sweden, the single also peaked within the top ten in Australia, Austria and New Zealand.
Certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America, the song was promoted with a music video directed by Bob Giraldi. The video, filmed in Santa Ynez Valley, California, featured cameo appearances by Linda McCartney, and La Toya Jackson (Michael's second older sister). The short film centered around two con artists, "Mac and Jack", and introduced dialogue and storylines to music videos. Upon its release, the video was considered too violent by the National Coalition on Television Violence.
Note 11: "I Want You Back" is a 1969 number-one single recorded by The Jackson 5 for the Motown label. The song, backed with a cover of Smokey Robinson & the Miracles' "Who's Lovin' You," was the only single from the first Jackson 5 album, Diana Ross Presents the Jackson 5. It went to number one on the soul singles chart for four weeks and held the number-one position on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart for the week of January 31, 1970. It has sold 6 million copies worldwide. In 1999, "I Want You Back" was also inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame.
"I Want You Back" ranks number 120 on Rolling Stone's list of the '500 Greatest Songs of All Time'. It also ranks ninth on Rolling Stone's list of the '100 Greatest Pop Songs since 1963'. In 2006, Pitchfork Media named it the second best song of the 1960s, adding that the chorus contains "possibly the best chord progression in pop music history." A June 2009 article by The Daily Telegraph called it "arguably the greatest pop record of all time".
Happy Birthday to Celest Chia and Clement Tsang
In the days following the sudden passing of international pop star Michael Jackson on 25th June, a series of MTV specials were being aired on alternate days, including the MJ Official Top 40 songs Special hosted by a deejay named David Gest, who had known MJ for about 40 years. This MTV Asia special was aired sometime before Michael's 50th birthday last August, and it was brought back in memory of the late pop star.

Note 1: "One More Chance" is a song written by R. Kelly for Michael Jackson on his Number Ones compilation album. It was the last original single released during MJ's life.
Note 2: "Ben" is a number-one hit song written by Don Black and Walter Scharf and recorded by the then-adolescent Michael Jackson for the Motown label in 1972. Originally written for Donny Osmond, "Ben" was offered to Jackson as Osmond was on tour at the time and unavailable for recording. The single, theme of a 1972 film of the same name (the sequel to the 1971 killer rat movie Willard), spent one week at the top of the U.S. pop chart. It also reached number-one on the Australian pop chart, spending eight weeks at the top spot. The song also later reached a peak of number seven on the British pop chart.
Note 3: "Ghosts" was one of the five new tracks on the "Blood On The Dance Floor" remix album. It was written, composed and produced by Jackson and Teddy Riley. Instruments played on the track include a guitar and piano. Jackson's vocal range on the song is B4–B5, the song is in the key G major. The Washington Post noted, " 'Ghosts' is another new jack swing collaboration with Teddy Riley for a similarly titled short film. It is a bit unsettling, particularly when Jackson spits out this line: 'Who gave you the right to share my family tree?'".
Note 4: "Why" is a song by 3T (three sons of Tito Jackson), written by Babyface and it featured Michael Jackson (who also produced it). This single belongs to the album Brotherhood and it was released in 1996. The song was originally selected to be part of HIStory: Past, Present and Future - Book I, but it was taken out and MJ decided to give it away to his nephews. This song was well received in European and Asian charts.
Note 5: "Blood on the Dance Floor" is the first single from Michael Jackson's remix album Blood on the Dance Floor: HIStory in the Mix. Jackson and Teddy Riley created the track in time for the 1991 release of Dangerous. However, it did not appear on that record and was minimally altered before commercial release in 1997. The song is about a predatory woman by the name of Susie, who seduces Jackson before plotting to stab him with a knife. The composition explores a variety of genres ranging from rock to funk. Commentators compared "Blood on the Dance Floor" to music from Dangerous. Others commented on the songs perceived aggressive tone and the vocal style, the broad genres heard and possible lyrical interpretations of the song. Reviews at the time of release were largely mixed, but contemporary reviews have been favorable.
To be continued in Part 2...
Happy Birthday to Ivy Lee, Matthew and Wen Jie
Arghh, it's my 1000th post!!! :-O
After knocking off from work at 6 pm ytd, I took direct bus to Orchard Road, spent some time at Wheellock Place, Michael Jackson's greatest hits being played within Borders, and there were lots of magazines at the Entertainment section featuring Jacko's face on cover.
At about 7 pm, I went to Shaw House to try spotting any celeb involved in the gala premiere of "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" (aka Harry Potter Part 6).
So far I saw Pan Lingling with husband Huang Shinan and their 2 lovable sons... sorry for not being able to take a good shot of their faces.
Then I saw Jade Seah and her younger brother (the young boy in maroon shirt).
And lastly, Amy Cheng (another hot mama, hee!) wih her older son Joshua. Apparently, Zoe was also involved, evident with the few diehard Zoe fans who were present there. I think her older son Brayden (now 4 years old) went with her too...
Oh yeah, I also saw the Ghostbuster Girl there!! It was easy to recognise her with the bangs as well as that super sweet smile. Yes, I am referring to that sweet-faced hottie who nearly gave me heartburn with that sexy beige-colored outfit at the Singapore Art Musueum... only this time, she was more covered up in hogswart uniform like the other fans. Oh well, she still looked as sweet and demure as ever... and I'm such a dork, I don't even know her name (let's just call her Susie).
As you can see, the security guards resort to sealing up all cameras and cam phones into large envelopes before keeping them somewhere safe, so as to prevent anyone from secretly taking pictures or video-recording while watching the film.
I had quick dinner at KFC, then went to look around the toy section located at Level 4 of Shaw House; I never intended to wait for the stars to come out anyway. While recent MJ songs like "Heal The World" and "You Are Not Alone" were being played, I got to see the new G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra action figures... Destro, Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow look very cool. But Cobra Commander was simply the most frightening with his badly burnt face (think Two-Face or Darkman).
And yeah, I went to check out the near-complete Ion Orchard on my way to the underpass. The new shopping complex will offically open on 21st July. Reached home at 9 plus in time to watch WWE Raw. :-)
On a side note, I am truly surprised by Fiona Xie's decision to pull out from the upcoming year-end blockbuster "Together" due to "personal reasons"... maybe she's scared of losing out the spotlight to Jeanette Aw or something. Or maybe she hated being typecast as a seductress, given the flak she got for some of her more recent TV roles. No wonder Zoe labelled her as a "public enemy among women" as stated in Wan Bao. I do hope she comes up with a good explanation... and it better be soon.
Happy Birthday to Yi Jing, Alice and Panny
I just finished watching the last episode of Red Thread, and what can i say? It is truly unpredictable, original and full of suspense. I can't believe that Kong Wah and Suzanne would eventually 'resolve their differences' by jumping off a high-rise building in the end, while their children (Alex, Li-Ann and Justin) watch on helplessly. Even now, the image of the double-suicide still continues to haunt me... and I know I'm not the only one who feels that way.
These are my thoughts on the characters...
Alex Sung (Adrian Pang)- cunning and brilliant trickster, able to fool nearly everyone else besides close associates Carol and Raj by posing as a blind man (pity that Li-Ann found out the deception before his revelation to Kong Wah). Love his crisp American-accented English.
Li-Ann (Celest Chong)- beautiful and demure, expresses herself well in the sobbing scenes, she scores high in her first major Channel 5 role. People may mistake that to be Celest's true persona though. May MDC give this tall beauty more Channel 5 roles :-)
Justin Kong (Julian Hee)- in persumably his first Channel 5 role after "Heartlanders", he has shown great improvement. Doesn't seem aggressive enough for some scenes though. Maybe due to his seemingly goody-two-shoes character. Always kena framed for things he didn't do such as peddling drugs or 'impregnating' Carol.
Pamela Pereira (Tracy Tan)- the ever-cute Tracy doesn't seem very natural in her first drama role since "Heartlanders season 1", even though she is capable of moving people with her crying scenes. Doesn't help that she got a squeaky voice. I personally felt she did better as Huay Huay in "Calefare". I wasn't too happy over the little screentime that Pam got for the last episode. Hopefully Pam can forgive Justin and start anew with him.
Kong Wah (Patrick Teoh)- he is simply damn good, with his years of experience of acting and deejaying in Malaysia. Goes to show that he can tackle any type of role, be it a billionaire or a humble minimart owner as seen in "En Bloc".
Suzanne Kong (Aileen Tan)- it's a great pity that Aileen's Hongkong-accented English completely overshadows her excellent thespian chops. Goes to show that she's better off in Chinese dramas than English ones... sorry, Aileen!
Marc Pereira (Paul Foster)- this is one arrogant, self-centered, unreasonable brat that you would want to beat up. Talking very fast, sulking over Li-Ann seeing Alex behind his back, and even making use of his real mum Priscilla to get even with Li-Ann and straighten his life out. I simply gloated with glee when Priscilla fired Marc from her company and scolded him for being so ungrateful to Dora who had raised him all his life.
George Pereira (Brian Richmond)- I think Brian is better as a deejay for Gold 90.5 FM. Not that his acting was terrible or what... he seemed a bit unnatural when talking with some of the cast members; it was as if he was telling stories to kids (something he might do with his granddson Sol).
Dora Pereira (Junji Delfino)- I don't know much about this Filipino actress, but I can only say she handled the role really well, she has amazing chemistry with Brian, Adrian, Paul and Tracy. One can relate the heartbreak within her after George died or whenever Marc yells at her. Easily one of the most likeable characters in the show... reminds me a bit of Shmi Skywalker with her motherly instincts.
Carol Chong (Eunice Olsen)- her acting is a bit OTT, and her continuous pouting-plus-frowning sometimes gets on my nerves. I was giggling a bit when Justin told her that he found out about Carol never being pregnant at all. Wasn't surprised by Carol's no-show throughout the last episode, not that it mattered anyway. Her only reason of being part of the story was because she was the daughter of the assassin hired to kill Peter/Alex and his wife, and also being the one to save Peter from certain death. Her plan to break up Justin and Pam by faking her pregnancy was just too painful to watch.
Sonny (Bernard Tan)- like Aileen, this part-time Channel 8 actor's English also a bit CMI, but he has shown improvement here, much like his role as Dawn Yeoh's biological father in "Beach Ball Babes". Pity he was a mere pawn in Suzanne's masterplan of revenge, never mind if he and Kong Wah grew up together. Oh yes, does anyone remember Bernard's very first TV role? He and Aileen actually played a divorced couple in the 1994 TCS 8 drama titled "Bond Of Love"!!
Raj- simple and good-natured man, excellent at providing comic relief. Everyone would simply love to have this guy as their buddy. :-)

Happy Birthday to Wendy Goh
Oh man, today is the supposed start date for MJ's "This Is It" concert, the series of concerts that were not meant to be.
I am still feeling very high over the encounter yesterday, so much that I want to make another MJ song dedication. I dedicate this song not just to the MJ fans, but also to Felicia, Joanne and the other beauty I met yesterday. This may not be a successful song from "Invincible", but this is one of my personal faves, cos this was the most precise description on how I was feeling when I saw her ytd... a truly beautfiul and melodious song. :-)BUTTERFLIES- Michael JacksonAll you gotta do is just walk away and pass me by
Don't acknowledge my smile when I try to say hello to you, yeah
And all you gotta do is not answer my calls when I'm trying to get through
To keep me wondering why, when all I can do is sigh
I just wanna touch you
[Chorus]
I just wanna touch and kiss
And I wish that I could be with you tonight
You give me butterflies inside, inside and I
All I gotta say is that I must be dreaming, can't be real
You're not here with me, still I can feel you near me
I caress you, let you taste us, just so blissful listen
I would give you anything baby, just make my dreams come true
Oh baby, you give me butterflies
[Chorus]
I just wanna touch and kiss
And I wish that I could be with you tonight
You give me butterflies inside, inside and I
I just wanna touch and kiss
And I wish that I could be with you tonight
You give me butterflies inside, inside and I
If you would take my hand, baby I would show you
Guide you to the light babe
If you would be my love, baby I will love you, love you
'Til the end of time
[Chorus]
I just wanna touch and kiss
And I wish that I could be with you tonight
You give me butterflies inside, inside and I
I just wanna touch and kiss
And I wish that I could be with you tonight
You give me butterflies inside, inside and I
I just wanna touch and kiss
And I wish that I could be with you tonight
You give me butterflies inside, inside and I (fade)
Happy Birthday to Lee Byung Hun, Weisen and Sheena
Earlier today, my family and I went for 77th Anniversary service... service started early at 8.30 am, and ended a few minutes before 10 am, after a rather dull and uninspiring sermon. Talk about a not-so-hyped church Anniversary. Anyway, I got back home to have quick lunch, finish uploading pictures of the MJ Tribute at ZIRCA on Facebook, and then watch the first quarter of the Michael Jackson Official Top 40. At 2 plus, together with family, I went to a relative's house for some tea party.
Lo and behold... I saw a very familiar face, and I was weakened to the knees. I couldn't resist going "hee hee hee!!" and doing the moonwalk at 'backstage' (but I didn't go "AAOW!!", til much later). When I regained my composure, I chatted with that mei nu as well as with others, mostly about my new job of course. We then celebrated Wendy's and Janna's birthdays, had a share of the chocolate cake and had a great time chatting around for the next 3 hours. I did take picture with that mei nu... and at around 6.10 pm, parents and I went to AMK Hub and had dinner at Subway. To end off, I bought a new Michael Jackson pictorial book that costs $3.50.
Obviously, I made a vow to that mei nu as well as myself that I am not going to put up those 2 pictures here, nor will I put them up in my Facebook profile or even my inactive Friendster account. I want to once again make it very clear that I am certainly not the "shoot-the-mind-off" type like some people (yes Sean Koh, I am talking about YOU!!!), I prefer to keep certain matters discreet (aka keep it in the closet). I guess some of you know quite well which mei nu I am referring to (if you do, good for you)... but I personally don't like bragging too much about that. We all need to respect each other's privacy, ya?
I dedicate this MJ song to that beauty, as well as to the sexy babe who stood in front of me in the bus to Ang Mo Kio... :-)

The Truth Of Lust, Woman To Man
So Open The Door And You Will See
