REVIEW : Nicole Scherzinger - Don't Hold Your Breath


My current addiction. I love the beat, I love the music video. 

This empowering mid-tempo pop song is written by Billy Steinberg and Toby Gad. The song is about a woman who finally realize that her relationship with her man is over and she would never go back to time they both had.

"If you think I'm coming back, don't hold your breath"

The lyrics also speaks up that the woman is really determined to left the man after all the heartache that she'd been through.

"You can't touch me now, there's no feeling left"

The emotions of the song (heartache) was portrayed well by Scherzinger, glancing in the mirror, self-reflection, and wandering in an old house.

The music video begins with Scherzinger sitting in the back of a London hackney carriage. As the rain pours outside and raindrops cover the windows, Scherzinger sings the first verse while changing her clothes.

She stares longingly out of the carriage's window, watching the rain outside. 

During the chorus, there are two main scenes. In the first she is seen wrapped in blanket while in the second she walks across room of an old house and most of the furniture is covered in plastic wrap. 

She stares resentfully at her surroundings while crossing the room. 

In the song's second verse, Scherzinger stands in front of a mirror in the bathroom of the house where she has a moment of realisation. The sink overflows as she scornfully looks in the mirror, relating to the lyrics of the song. 

She is then walk towards the camera, through a hallway of the house. It is a confident independent walk towards the audience with lights flashing rhythmically behind her. 

The bridge sees Scherzinger sat in one the house's empty rooms, in an old armchair and intersects some of the earlier carriage and bathroom scenes. As she sings the lyric "The screen fades to black", the blanket seen earlier on falls in front of the camera revealing a close up shot of Scherzinger's face. Her hair flows in the wind and she finally gets up from the armchair to stand in front of the room's open windows. 

In the final scene she stands confidently in front of the window as wind and light flood the room. She sings the final verse of the song, looking directly at the camera and smiling for the first time in the video.

ENJOY

REVIEW : The One That Got Away - Katy Perry

 

Yes , sometimes things doesn't work out the way you want it.

Katy Perry is back after her E.T , Teenage Dreams - and the list goes on . She's pretty in this music video , real pretty :) I love her since Hot & Cold .

The lyrics are awesome , except for the beat . I don't think it suits the mood of the music video . 
I love the story line . I didn't expect the guy would died in a car crash . How do I know the guy died ? Only a fool would say he's safe and sound after the car jumps out of the cliff . Yes , expect the unexpected . 

"never planned that one day i'll be losing you"


We don't know what will happen in the future , So , tell them you love them and you care for them before it's too late . 

"so I don't have to tell that you were the one that got away"

ENJOY :)

REVIEW : Milo Supreme McFlurry

I'm LOVIN' IT .

I love McDonald's creamy sundae (OMG) .
I love Milo cereal .

With Mcd hocus-pocus here and there , the combination of Milo cereal and McD creamy sundae turned out to be dead *literally* good :)


I don't really like the McFlurry Oreo . Nope . No . Not at all . But I finally found something that can beat my addiction to the alluring Strawberry Sundae :)




Go Milo GO ! 


Now will you excuse me , I got slices of indulgence to finish .

REVIEW : Unique - Alison Allen-gray

 

15-year-old Dominic Gordon is facing yet another miserable interview with his high-powered father, a pharmaceutical magnate, over the contents of his school report.

He has known for a long while that he is falling short of Dad's expectations, and yet the expectations would appear to be wildly unrealistic.

The boy, a talented artist, has no aptitude for science, but it has always been made clear to him that his destiny is an Oxbridge education in this very field.

No expense has been spared to achieve that goal, but all in vain. In his father's view, Dominic is wilfully failing to exploit his potential, of which there exists no evidence at all.

Rooting through his grandfather's attic he discovers a photograph album in which he appears as a baby. He recognises his parents, his infant self, no problem there, but as the child grows older, in picture after picture, "there were scenes with other kids that looked as if we were the best of friends, but I didn't remember them. Holidays I'd never had, places I'd never been. Yet there I was, right in the middle of it all, living a life I didn't remember."

A little research leads Dominic to suspect that, literally, his life is not his own. Even his name is second-hand, first bestowed on the child in the photographs who grew into a gilded youth, Cambridge graduate laden with honours, and died on the brink of a glittering future in the year before Dominic's birth.


When the truth comes out and his father speaks of "re-creating" him, Dominic knows that this is exactly what he is supposed to be, the reincarnation of his dead brother, the lost genius; but in his own anguished interpretation he is "a duff copy of the original", a freak in the eyes of many and, in the eyes of those who know the facts, a failed experiment.

The proverb "don't judge a book by it's cover" can be applied in this novel . As you can see , the cover is a major failure I guess but , and that is a big BUT , the story is amazing . 

ENJOY :)

REVIEW : ALL ABOUT US - He is we ft owl city


Take my hand
I'll teach you to dance
I'll spin you around
Won't let you fall down

Would you let me lead
You can step on my feet
Give it a try
It'll be all right

The rooms hush, hush
And now's our moment
Take it in, feel it all, and hold it
Eyes on you, eyes on me
We're doing this right

Cause lovers dance when they're feeling in love
Spotlight shining, its all about us
its all about us
And every heart in the room will melt
This is a feeling I've never felt
but its all about us

Suddenly, I'm feeling brave
Don't know whats gotten into me
Why I feel this way
Can we dance, real slow
Can I hold you, Can I hold you close


The rooms hush, hush
And now's our moment
Take it in, feel it all, and hold it
Eyes on you, eyes on me
We're doing this right

Cause lovers dance when they're feeling in love
Spotlight shining, its all about us
its all about us
And every heart in the room will melt
This is a feeling I've never felt
but its all about us

Do you hear that love,
they're playing our song
Do you think we're ready,
oh I'm really feeling it
Do you hear that love,
Do you hear that love
(repeat 3 times)

lovers dance when they're feeling in love
Spotlight shining, its all about us
It's all about us
its all
And every heart in the room will melt
This is a feeling I've never felt
but its all about us

Cause lovers dance when they're feeling in love
Spotlight shining, its all about us
its all about us
And every heart in the room will melt
This is a feeling I've never felt
but its all, all about us. 


He is we is an indie pop band from Washington .  I love the song , i love the music video more . It's like they were really in love . 

Love should be this way . Where you would be there besides him/her going through all the ups and down without any complains or regrets . 

Pause at 2:36 . He's a good-looking man right ? ;) And the woman is pretty . They suit each other well I guess . 

He hug her so tight as if he never want to let her go . How SAD :(

ENJOY :)
