No longer thank God for Friday

Today is Friday, it should be my favorite little day, but darn, things turn out different on this semester, there is NO REST for weekend!! Creative strategy is killing me, our tutor is arrogant like shit, the assignment requires quantity but not quality, WHAT! And Broadcast Journalism wants 15 news from us! It's 15!!

Wish I could skip the whole semester, I know we've been comforted for so long on the last short term, but come on, the gap is way too big! We couldn't really get out of the comfort zone.

Okay, stop complaining, get back to work now! *crying

Year-End New Singles (Part 2)

1. Happy - Leona Lewis

I didn't like the song at first, but how can I not loving Leona's vocal, she even sang this on America's Got Talent flawlessly live, I wonder how can she hit a big note like "I JUST wanna be" in full chest voice, and sensational falsetto at 2:40", that's probably a "vocal gymnastic", playing around with those notes. This might sound a little familiar to you, and you hear it right, this is another production by Bleeding-Love producer, Ryan Tedder. And we all know Ryan big-beat style has produced the successful likes such as, Halo by Beyonce, Bleeding Love by Leona Lewis, Apologize by OneRepublic. Worth a listen!

Rate: 8/10

2. Bad Romance - Lady Gaga

This is no doubt another chart-topping song. Gaga's appearance may not always pleased their fans, but all her songs are catchy as always. During her The Fame era, from Just Dance to Paparazzi, she never let her fans down. Now she's coming back with The Fame Monster, which convinces her fans that she'll be coming back with much bigger monster hits. Though Bad Romance might not be catchy like Poker Face or Paparazzi, she still gives her very own Gagalicious, "Gaga, woolala.." in the lyric.

Rate: 6.5/10

3. Everybody Loves Me - OneRepublic

This is a surprise single, with surprisingly catchy chorus and vocal. Ryan Tedder is a beat genius. For whom newly listen to Ryan, this is a good start, and make sure you're ready to do a little moves with his song.

Rate: 7.5/10

4. Say Goodbye - Katharine McPhee

If you love Katharine's Ordinary World from her debut album, you must not miss this single. Her vulnerable tone makes us want even more. I remember when I first listened part of this song on CSI: New York, I just couldn't wait till it's officially released. This song is way too sad, "that way it won't hurt so much when we say goodbye..."

Rate: 8.5/10

5. Bad Boys - Alexandra Burke

Here's Alexandra finally has her album out, Overcome. This is her very first single in her debut album, and I love this music video, Alex can dance. I love how she collaborated her debut with Flo Rida, it's a masterpiece. Will this be another Bleeding Love topping the chart? We'll see.

Rate: 7.5/10

6. Doesn't Mean Anything - Alicia Keys

Don't you think it sounds a little bit like No One? Yeah, a little bit, but we can say this is Alicia's thing. her niche, perhaps. But I love this better than No One, its lyric is more understandable and meaningful.

Rate: 7.5/10

That's all for my reviews. Enjoy your day!
