Cutting Words X Looking Forward: 22nd TW-Golden Melody Awards

haven’t been following

Taiwanese Mandarin Pop for quite awhile

listening to my favourite artists

on selective basic

 

and i mean

yeah i have certain personal grudges

against the whole awards organization itself

because they let Gary Chau betting Khalil Fong

how could they?

OMG..  i will never get over it like forever

 

franking speaking

long long awards presentation

sometimes can get quite tiring

especially the speeches

by the hosts, the awards presenters

and finally the award recipients

 

but anyway

i still follow the awards over the years

2008 - 19th GMA

2010 - 21st GMA

 

but over the past 10 years

i learn to focus less on the results

instead as a lesson

as my quick “crash course” class

on what’s going on in the Taiwan music industry

 

and quick browse

through the nominees’ lists

to see whether there are any good albums

which i kinda miss out

 

best example,

A-Lin,

the nominee for best female vocal

i don’t really know who she is frankly

except vaguely remember her first song

until so many sharing on FB

practically becoming the talk of the whole show

although she didn’t win

 

and just enjoy the show

especially the performances

something i particularly enjoy during awards

medleys..

from the list,

Song of the year

Best Lyricist

給自己的歌 / 縱貫線

 

well,

this is my first time hearing it, actually

i must say..

it’s very Jonathan Lee

anyway of course

he is like the legend of the

late 80’s to early 90’s

for the whole Mandarin music industry

 

but does this song actually

deserves the whole 3 awards

i don’t know

 

and not to miss it

congrats to Jay Chou

there’s no surprise he will win

yet there’s not too much debate

whether he deserves it

because he is simple the king

 

this is not exactly my favourite album of 2010

but one of my favourite of all his albums

好久不見的周杰倫

周杰倫 《跨時代》

 

last but not least

韋禮安 William Wei !!!

韋禮安 William Wei

 

he still looks boyish then ever

end of the year

he is taking a break, mandatorily

the army call

oh no…

so how long do we have to wait

for the next album??

but there is rumour saying that

the new album will be released

right before the break

William Wei 02

 

but for the time being

have to satisfy myself listening to his live album

兩腳書櫥的逃亡演唱會Live 

 

and Yen-J

another cute and talented one

but what to do if

there can only be one winner

people just can’t help comparing them huh

including me

韋禮安 X 嚴爵:好天氣就是咖哩在一起

Yen-J - Not Alone 嚴爵 不孤獨
