Salam and hello everyone. First of all, sorry because I can’t reply all of your comments in this blog for now, I’m still working on my final exams which have another 3 papers to go. Anyway, this is just a quick-and-to-release-my-exam-stress entry and not an entry which will be discussed or written in details.

Okay, back to original title. Watch the Evolusi KL Drift 2 movie trailer below and write down what do you think about it.

So, are you going to watch it? Or, have you watched it? If you did, what is your feedback? Mind to share it here? Since I have watched it’s first movie and have written a quick movie review last time, I hope this second movie is better than the first one.

So, no more talk, what do you think?

Salam and hello all. It has been about a week there is no new entry here. Hoho, actually I at my hometown right now, enjoying my limited-one-week holiday. Yeah, hence of course I need to appreciate that limited time. My class for special semester will start soon on 20 April 2009. Well, I took special semester a.k.a short semester again. Ok, stop talking about academic stuff, it’s holiday. Hehe.

Let’s go back to what this entry should be, do you know about this collaboration? Youtube Symphony Orchestra? Have you ever heard before? I noticed about this world’s first collaborative orchestra few days before when I was watching a video at Youtube. Anyway, I heard about it again today on tv about this collaborative orchestra. Let’s have a brief intro about this orchestra.

This collaborative orchestra is a collaboration of Youtube and London Symphony Orchestra, and consists of at least 90 musicians from 30 different countries. What more interesting is, all musicians have been selected via a vote by Youtube viewers! Sound cool, huh? And they have performed their first performance at Carnegie Hall yesterday and the video has ready to watch at Youtube.

This is the video of Tan Dun’s Internet Symphony No. 1 “Eroica” that was performed by this orchestra yesterday and was conducted by San Francisco Symphony Orchestra music director Michael Tilson-Thomas. Listen to the music, it is really nice and “classic”.

Beside Tan Dun’s Internet Symphony No. 1 “Eroica”, they also performed other classical music works by Gabrieli, Bach, Mozart, Brahms, Villa-Lobos and John Cage. So many names I never heard before, but I love to hear Mozart, Beethoven and Strauss. Sometimes these classical music help me to relax. Anyway, I think I’ll hear this Tan Dun’s Internet Symphony No. 1 “Eroica” many times after this. This music is awesome. So, what do you think?

p/s: It reminds me of Nodame Cantabile ( のだめカンタービレ ). Wanna watch it again

Salam and hello all. Have you listen to this song? This is the song that sings by a group of Malaysian artists called Malaysian Artistes for Unity (MAFU). For me, its a great song which shows the unity of Malaysian and a great collaboration among Malaysian artists. IMHO, the song itself is great; the video of the song is simple and funny but full of message in it. Honestly, I love this song. For the first time I listen this song at Fly FM, I already attracted with the melody and messages in it.

Others info is the song produced by Pete Teo and the video directed by Yasmin Ahmad and Ho Yuang. The song featuring by a number of Malaysian artists such as Afdlin Shauki, Awie, Ning Baizura, Atilia, Jaclyn Victor, Reshmonu, Pete Teo, Jason Lo, KLG Sqwad, Altimet, Suki, Daniel Lee, Nikki Palikat and Melina William. And for the video, it features Tony Fernandes, Maya Karin, Shebby, Harith and all the names I mentioned before. Cool! A lot of peoples contributed to sing the song!

Here is the official video for this song. Enjoy it while together sing the song.

Here is the lyric of Here in My Home by Malaysia Artistes for Unity.

Verse 1
Hold on brother hold on
The road is long.
We’re on stony ground
But I’m strong.
You ain’t heavy
.
Verse 2
Oh there’s a misspoken truth that lies
Colors don’t bind, oh no.
What do they know?
They speak falsely.
.
Chorus
Here in my home
I’ll tell you what its all about
There’s just one hope here in my heart
One love undivided
That’s what it’s all about
Please won’t you fall in one by one by one with me?
.
Verse 3
Push back sister won’t you push back?
Love won’t wait. Just keep pushing on.
Yes I’m strong.
You ain’t heavy.
.
Verse 4
Oh don’t you worry about that…
What we have shadows can’t deny
Don’t you know it’s now or never?
