Superband afterthoughts

19 June 2006, today I finally managed to catch a glimpse of the Singapore Superband on TV. I must first clarify that I’m not a fan of these kind of Super shows, like Super Idol, Super these, Super that. I find it pointless and senseless to watch as it has no direct correlation with my life.
However, I was quite keen to watch Superband simply because I knew one of the wannabe participants. He belongs to the Brods team, consisting of him and his younger brother. Yup, a man approaching 30 going head on with the eighteen, nineteen year olds, singing the song “I’m not crazy”.(actually  I think he is crazy to enter to this singing competition)  Kudos for his bravery and I must give due credit to him. His singing was quite impressive. (reminds me of his hey days in the secondary school, where he won virtually every year Chinese Xinyao singing competition)
One positive aspect of this show was that it reminds me of this band called “The Cranberries” particularly the song Zombie. Why, you may asked, my answer may just be as crazy and simply quite “bo liao” as it reminds me of this particular girl from this particular Filipino band based in Hangzhou who gave a wonderful rendition of the song. So Wee, if you still remember the band name and their website, just drop a message into my C box.
