long-awaited

ok so i know it's been more than a week and all... but i'm back and that's what matters.. heehee. didnt think i would last this long myself. commitments.... still not my thing i guess. nonchalence seems to rule my life. i need to pick up a hobby or something... heheh.

i guess thats why i admire people with dedication. the will to carry something through.. even though pain may be inevitable. im not saying continueing to write here is painful.. but.. u know what i mean. passion is not something that all of us have. it takes hard work and determination.. not to mention tenacity and a bit of obstination. people with drive are kinda sexy... heheh. maybe one day i would find something for myself.. something that could help me take charge of my life and live it with a certain purpose.

so.. anyone catch american idol lately? the final results show was on last night.. and if u missed it.. u should hit urself in the face right now. it was... monumental to say the least. the gods of the 70s to 80s came back on screen... tony bennett, gladys knight, and bette midler are just some of the names our parents grew up with. they give music the inspiration that popular bands nowadays can never hope to achieve. theyre the reason why people realised they loved music... the strong voices that move, the lyrics that melted the hearts of the sentimental. a special mention to tony bennett.. i respect that old man( i think he's like 70).. his voice is indescribably... well.. indescribable. beautiful.

american idol may be one of the most commercialised reality tv series in the histiry of the cosmos. and theyre making it worth their while. by bringing together all the artistes that made history... they celebrate the hopeful musicians of the future. it is an appreciation of something that brings all people together.. music. i might be praising this show too much, but this is in awe of the show that was on last night. it was put together with finesse.

so jordin won... kinda expected it after melinda got kicked out eh. blake didnt stand a chance against this fiery and talented 17 year old. sure he is probably the most original and spunky contestant to date.. some may even go to the length to saying he's cute, but jordin... she's a good singer. and at her age.. she might just become another whitney housten or celine dion with that much space to grow and explore her god-given vocals. this is.. of course.. said with much optimism for her career. past idols havent really proved themselves worthy or worship. so.. i guess we'll see won't we. all we do know is.. as long as there is new blood, and as long as there are those willing to listen, music will live on.

rock on people.
