The Voice UK Season 2. Yeah?

April 22, 2013 0
The Voice UK Season 2. Yeah?
So I am a little broken hearted because The Voice US's YouTube is limited to their countrymen and it's not available in my country so I didn't mind disregarding that shiz. Well, as much as I think Shakira's presence is such a lovely twist, and as much as I love Adam, well I think now is the perfect time and I would just appeal to whoever to please make it available outside your country please. Or not. Whatever. I hope The Voice Philippines (soon) and The Voice Japan (is there any?) wouldn't make its videos available to your country too! Just kidding. :)) 

The Voice UK Coaches
On other news, I think after watching The Script's Manchester Concert on YouTube, The Voice UK series 2 Episode 1 presented itself to me. The wand chooses the wizard, right? Okay. And so I watched it. What else? Not from their official YouTube though. I can't be so sure whether BBC made it available or what. Anyways, it doesn't matter. I have so far watched all the episodes that there is and what can I say? It kind of bothers me that they're working in unison sometimes in a sense that they're giving way for the other coaches to have an artist that they like. Which shouldn't be the case. You know, ADAM wouldn't let that happen. I understand that they just want the best for the singers there and that they just want them to be at the right person's but yeah I don't know how to feel about that but let's just leave them alone.  

EXCUSE ME SELFIE! PEACE/THE VOICE/THE VOICE SEASON 2 - YOU CHOOSE! :)
I realized one thing why I like The Voice more than anything else. Or Audition wise at least. It's the family of the contestants. Say, American Idol, the family wouldn't know whether their relative got a ticket right away. I mean, they have to wait for them to come out the door, right? Whilst in The Voice, they would know right away. They would know while it's happening. It just makes me happy that I can see the family being supportive and all that. It makes me emotional a little bit. Family thing makes me emotional, I think. There's this particular contestant who hit me because she loves her grandma so much and her grandma is ill but was able to make it and was able to watch her audition and it's just nice that she dedicated her audition performance to her grandma. I love my grandma so I have a soft spot for that. Also, a lot of performances dedicated to someone they love so it's very nice.

LEAH MCFALL
As for my favorite contestant, I only have one in mind as of the moment. LEAH MCFALL! She reminds me so much of Melanie Martinez of The Voice US. I think this girl can sing better though. Or I don't know. She really nailed that Rita Ora song that I like (R.I.P.) so that adds up to it.

GOOD VIBES! :)

Like, really. More Singing.

Like, really. More Singing.

Excuse my feet but this I do as a tribute to THE VOICE. Which is ending very soon. 


This is them with their classic duets. Like, they don't even have to sing together because you know, they don't have to. Hahaha but for some reason, they would like grab the mic and together and one of them wouldn't sing anyway and like, just drop the mic back the table. Ang labo lang.


SelCa. If you don't know already, I actually had a hair cut so my hair is looking weird like that. Or I probably mentioned that to you already. Or not.


Is my sister sleeping for reals or what? LOL. I don't know if I told you before but I actually slept a little bit the last time we went here.


Then we availed the same package we availed before. Which I didn't expect by the way. Because like, we had dinner at McDonald's prior to this but never mind. We were still able to finish everything. Hahaha

The Voice Season 3 Favorites. So Far.

September 26, 2012 0
The Voice Season 3 Favorites. So Far.
I'm actually like watch THE VOICE for some reason. Better than American Idol, better than Got Talent, better than X-Factor. I don't know why too. Actually, we don't have a franchise of The Voice in my country (possessive) but whatever. I don't mind watching on YouTube.


My favorite part of The Voice is actually the Blind Auditions. There's just something special about it. It generally shows that VOICE is really powerful that yo get to like it even though you haven't seen the person yet or stuff. RELEVANT. Anyways. In no particular order, I present to you my favorites. SO FAR. I may or may not have more favorites because the Blind Auditions isn't over yet and yeah.


Michelle Brooks. She sang Proud Mary and she did it really well. Obviously, I was impressed.


Benji did Knockin' on Heaven's Door. I'm actually quite doubtful if I should put him here but after watching it for the third time I guess, I thought it was a brilliant performance.


Nicole Nelson did Hallelujah and it was such an emotional performance. I can't even. 


Samuel Mouton did the Redemption Song. He's kind of cute too. Anyways.


 Colin McLoughlin did Wild World. Now, I was kind of hesitant about his performance too but then again, on second thought, he did very well. Ooh that smile boy!


Joe Kirkland! I actually didn't have second thought on his performance. LOL. I like the way he sang it and stuff. Kind of that bad guy tone but then again...Oh JOE! Hope it gives her hell. Just kidding.


Cassadee Pope. Cassadee Pope's version of Torn really killed it. I don't know why but I feel very connected to her. WEIRD. 


Melanie Martinez! I like her so much! She sang Toxic and I was like, can I take her home? JOKE! She's really so cute! I like her style, her lipstick, her style, she look vintage. WHAT? LOL. She's actually 17 but she look kind of 12 to me or something. I'm not saying that I like them to win but I actually like their auditions so let's see what'll happen next. 

Oh! Somebody please send me PAULINA'S audition video please. Or will that be up on The Voice's YouTube soon? I don't know. I hope they do well on THE BATTLE.

Bo Bruce!

Bo Bruce!
For some reason, I'm not really good at forecasting stuff. If you watched THE VOICE UK, great. If not, then just pretend you did. I actually guessed that BO BRUCE (woman in gray dress) from TEAM DANNY is THE VOICE. For some reason, I really really like her style of singing. It's just so...different. People often say that if you really have a good voice, then there's no need for you to do stuff that will make it even better. Let's get it straight though. I don't like people who do SO MUCH with their voice to the point where I feel like it's unnecessary. But for me, there are a lot of singers out there. And yes, a lot of good singers out there. Now, tell me how can an individual say that he/she likes a good singer an extra notch to another singer when they exactly sound the same? Get what I mean? So yeah.

If you don't know yet, LEANNE MITCHELL (woman in black dress) won the competition. I'm alright with that. I have nothing against her. She's actually good too. They're all good. It's just that WE ALL HAVE OUR OWN PREFERENCE.


And also! I realized that for some reason, my choices are those who are coached by a band member. I once predicted that Tony Lucca from Team Adam would be THE VOICE. And just recently, BO BRUCE from Team Danny. Coincidence or what? No idea. But thinking about it, I'd still pick BO whenever team she probably belonged. Thoughts?

The Voice Season 2 Finale. My Verdict.

The Voice Season 2 Finale. My Verdict.

NO OTHER THAN TONY LUCCA! I know what you're thinking! AND NO! IT'S NOT BECAUSE HE'S ON TEAM ADAM. It's  just that whenever he sings, I can really feel it. And there are like stories in his songs. Like, he's singing the story of the songs. Gets?

It's really inappropriate for me to tell but for some reason, Chris Mann's performances didn't really make an impact on me. He's really good too. But his eyes are somehow empty and emotionless and all that. Or probably just me. His "You Raise Me Up" was awesome though.

Juliet Simms was awesome as well. I don't know. She's really good. But I just don't feel her that much as well.

Jermaine Paul was also good. Really touching how he thanked his coach. :)

Christina's chest.

Christina's chest.
As a fan of Christina Aguilera, I saw a drastic transformation. Is it a good thing? I say, yes. I think her new look fits her perfectly. Like, it just proves that skinny does not look good on everyone. Looking back though, since there's no one to compare her too, I thought that she was on her best. But you know, things change.

I also saw Christina Aguilera's interview on Ellen Degeneres show like probably weeks before The Voice started. And the first thing Ellen told Christina was something like 'you're breast feeding?' I'm not sure if that's the exact words but something close to that.

Seeing her right now, mainly on The Voice, makes me really proud that she was able to come this far. And she's hotter than ever! When I think of The Voice, only three things crosses my mind. Adam Levine, Christina's boobies, and The Voice itself. Or sometimes only Christina Aguilera's boobies alone. It depends.

Don't get me wrong though, she looked very beautiful when she was skinny. It's just that she looks more beautiful now. Or at least for me. You can have your own opinion about her but I don't care. Just kidding.

So yeah, as a conclusion, I think that her looks/figure now is so far her best, and I'm not saying that she can't look any better!

Here's a picture for a comparison:

The Voice UK vs USA. The Battle.

April 04, 2012 2
The Voice UK vs USA. The Battle.
Recently, I've been watching a show called THE VOICE. Like before, I've noticed YouTube stars promoting this and after one and another, I was like "AGAIN?" I was really annoyed, if you can't tell.

Then I don't know but recently, WOW I just got hooked like that. Oh why again? First of all, just the thought of Adam Levine , enough said. Then one time I searched for The Voice on YouTube and a UK version showed. And my whole world was like "WHAT'S HAPPENING?".

Let the battle begin!


I think the combination of the judges is just so fantastic in the US version. In the sense that, provided you're truly is a singer, there's a place for you.


Well, here in the UK version however, they sort of talk a lot when the blind audition is going on and I have this feeling that they kind of have an ideal singer. If that makes sense.  Like, they really do talk a lot (said that already) and I think in majority of the contestants, the judges feel the same, sort of.  In the US version, they sort of talk but not really to the extent of being that obvious. They rather stare at each other a lot.

Also, not that I am being racist or anything, I think I was just shocked when I saw Will.I.Am there. Isn't he American? But then I remembered Simon Cowell. ALL GOOD. What I like about the UK version is that they have a legend there (Sir Tom Jones). Well ,everyone's a legend. So never you mind.

Talent can't be judged so I won't be speaking about that but (yes, I will), I think as far as talent is concern, I like the blind audition performances of the US. Well, I can't tell because they're kind of showing off individually already in the US whilst still on the blind auditions in the UK.

LSS much.

LSS much.

I've been listening to Eminem's Lose Yourself pretty much all the time now. How come? It all started after I heard a guy named Max Milner did a mash-up of Come Together and Lose Yourself on The Voice UK. And my homeboy Danny of The Script kind of rapped on his seat. If that's not attractive to you, then I don't know what is.
