I don't mind if you've got something nice to say about me
And I enjoy an accolade like the rest
You could take my picture and hang it in a gallery
Of all who's who and so-n-so's that used to be the best
At such'n'such ... it wouldn't matter much
I won't lie, it feels alright to see your name in lights
We all need an 'Atta boy' or 'Atta girl'
But in the end I'd like to hang my hat on more besides
The temporary trappings of this world
I want to leave a legacy
How will they remember me?
Did I choose to love? Did I point to You enough
To make a mark on things?
I want to leave an offering
A child of mercy and grace who
blessed your name unapologetically
And leave that kind of legacy
I don't have to look too far or too long awhile
To make a lengthly list of all that I enjoy
It's an accumulating trinket and a treasure pile
Where moth and rust, thieves and such will soon enough destroy
Not well traveled, not well read, not well-to-do or well bred
Just want to hear instead, "Well Done" good and faithful one...
i was so sad when carrie yeo from the project superstar was out of the show on thur... such a good singer with potential.. and her rendition on wednesday moved many ppl's hearts... and she even scored the highest of all seasons.. but i reali felt good for her to have come so far and getting the praises from the judges after so many many episodes of choosing the wrong songs and having stage fright... many ppl 'condemning' her after she forgot her lyrics in one of the shows... i still did believe in her. though i still can see that she doesnt have much self confdence sometimes from her eyes, i thot she improved tremendously on that nite... hm.. im not sure y i want to share abt her in this blog but i thot i just wanted to..haha.. afterall, there realli isnt a reason not to anyway... oh ya, and i think she is reali a great fren to be with... the one who 'beat' her in the competition is her good fren! but they are still so good despite all these...thats simply great.. and now that she is out, she is now supporting and rooting for the one who won her..haha... where can u find such a fren?
... and is quite amazing that i came to like this lass. i have been watching Project Superstar 2 ever since it started but when i 1st saw her, i reali dun like her.. i felt and thought that she was a bit 'fake' but when i heard her voice, i hv to admit that she has a good and powerful voice. though i dun like her, i just thot she will go far..since she is rather pretty as well.. but when she got 'out' in her 2nd round i was rather shocked. coz even though i dun support her, i thought she shldnt be the one who shld be out. she got the voice and look. there are those in the group who got the look but cant sing. even though earlier on, there were contestants who can sing but got out, but i thot they dun hv the looks. but then, i predicted she will be back agn via the revival round. i think that was when i started to support her. i was rather worried when theres another one who scored higher than her during the revival, and i hv to say that person (dawn) impressed me with her rendition of Beautiful Love by tanya coz b4 that i dun reali think that the song is nice until she sang it. but then, to cut a long story short, carrie got back in anyway... and her performance somehow didnt improve at all after 2 shows... many ppl started to criticise her and even all the other gers in the group... wah..paisei man..such a long winded entry...
anyway, wats my point??
she shldnt be out de lor!! i wanted to watch her in singapore indoor stadium! anyway, though she lost, she has did herself proud by scoring the highest and many ppl lamenting that she shld hv won... but..this kind of voting competition is lidat de... i dun think the voting helps in gauging the popularity though it helps in parts... and this voting system is proved flawed over and over agn.. the undeserving got in and the deserving out... ok ok, to be fair, diya is good in her rights. just that i thot carrie is better...haha.
ok, after such a long entry.. i also duno wats the point.. heehee...
