Duet by Fish Leong (梁静如) and Ping Guan (品冠) - 明明很爱你.
Ok, this is a lazy post. Reasons, Odex has been topic-ed too much, CPL Dave Teo and his ex-girlfriend topic-ed a lot and basically, nothing much is interesting these days, it seems.
After years of trying to find what the song for the mass dance that I learnt during poly days, I found the song title. I thought it was “Marigold” but it’s actually “New Age Girl” -_-’ Strangely, the girl in the song is a vegetarian. Hmm.
Which also goes to say I’m old.
Video embedded.
Sung by Dead Eye Dick
I’ve got a New Age girl (tell us what she’s like)
Environmentalist girl (does she ride a bike)
She has a crystal necklace (does she spend a lot of cash)
Though her vibes are rather reckless (she’s heading for a crash)
Oh her flowing skirt is blowing in a transcendental wind
And she wonders without knowing where did we begin
Mary Moon, she’s a vegetarian
(Mary Moon, Mary Moon, Mary Moon)
Mary Moon will outlive all the septaugenarians
(Mary Moon, Mary Moon, Mary Moon)
Oh she loves me so, she hates to be alone
She don’t eat meat but she sure like the bone
You know, she drives wind car (how does she like it)
It doesn’t get her far (why she doesn’t bike it)
But it gets her to where she’s going
I don’t know, I don’t know where that is
I wish I knew
I don’t know where she’s going and I don’t know where she’s been
All I know that lovin’ her has got to be a sin
Mary Moon, she’s a vegetarian
(Mary Moon, Mary Moon, Mary Moon)
Mary Moon will outlive all the septaugenarians
(Mary Moon, Mary Moon, Mary Moon)
Oh she loves me so, she hates to be alone
She don’t eat meat but she sure like the bone
Mary Moon, will you hesitate
Don’t segregate your thoughts from your emotions
(Mary Moon)
I know devotion isn’t way up high
Mary Moon, she’s a vegetarian
(Mary Moon, Mary Moon, Mary Moon)
Mary Moon will outlive all the septaugenarians
(Mary Moon, Mary Moon, Mary Moon)
Mary Moon, she’s an intellectual
(Mary Moon, Mary Moon, Mary Moon)
Mary Moon despite that fact remains quite sexual
(Mary Moon, Mary Moon, Mary Moon)
Mary Moon (Mary Moon, Mary Moon, Mary Moon)
Oh, Mary Moon (Mary Moon, Mary Moon, Mary Moon)
Mary Moon (Mary Moon, Mary Moon, Mary Moon)
A friend of mine emailed me this link about this 64-year-old man who auditioned for American Idol. He got a petition to get him in because his late wife had encouraged him to do it. He did it because she was dying of cancer and he wanted to do it for her. Prepare tissue hor! He sang very well too!
I had once thought of buying Creative due to its FM radio recording functions. It seems that I no longer have the need to buy it because the new firmware does not have the function. Why would that function be removed?
Is it used to combat piracy? I guess so. I bet it’s removed because of the slow sales of music CDs. Such function is considered illegal. So, what is legal nowadays? Maybe music is easier to transfer via online than videos. So, the fight is just between the music recorders and buying music CDs for now. Once the speed is up for downloads, vidoes would be the next fight, I guess.
I’ve never watched any local plays or musicals before. Maybe it’s because of mindset. Aye, mindset is the main factor that determines whether we watch local-made movies such as Jack Neo’s I Not Stupid, Money No Enough, and his coming soon Just Follow Law. Notice the 3-word movies by him?
When Dim Sum Dollies decided to be part of Little Shop of Horrors, I was thinking who would be interested in watching it with me. I came up with the list of nil. Here’s a review by Jeremy who had watched it. Looks like I’ve saved my money on it though.
Wow, Jack Neo has a spot in Wikipedia. As if it’s something new, maybe it’s been there a long time. I wonder if our local movies, sitcoms and dramas will have a cult following overseas. Then, the little red dot would be easily remembered just by mentioning its name.

What a day. I was very late for my dinner appointment with my friends, though I wasn’t the last to arrive. Being the organizer though, it was unthinkable to be late. But not my fault lei. I was held up at work. Cd was near my work place and she was held up but not as late as I was. When she returned my call, she was on the bus. Darn, could have shared the journey but she was already on her way. Oh well.
I finally left the office at 7+ and practically walked as fast as I could to the bus stop, train and the venue we were having dinner. There was some confusion over the duck, goose and chicken. In the end, CD never got her whatever brown brown flat flat (遍遍) thingy.
HY had booked a KTV room for us. It’s been years since we last sang together in KTV. I think I lost my voice 2 hours after that, thing is, I haven’t sung much yet. The ice honey helped slightly. Before the start of us hogging the microphone, we had our gift exchange. I love the white moose which was scented with chocolate mousse. Yummy. HY, who loves stuff toys, got it. Really fitting.
CD on the other hand, got a gift from NL who unfortunately had fallen ill (which I just found out, she had injured her leg, poor NL). Hence, we don’t know what it is for now. HF has a kimono-inspired coin pouch. Lovely. ES received the rose necklace I bought last minute. Luckily, she loved it. JC had a huge mug, she’s overseas, so we didn’t catch up with her.
HY had bought something that sounded so mysterious, it can be distributed but yet not edible. We wonder what it is. JS had a something and G had something else (I don’t know why I can’t remember). And me? I had a cat inspired keyboard rest pad, how fitting, I use the computer everyday. Then we started singing. I have lost touch with the songs. I can’t sing more than half of them and stuck to 2 that I know. Pitiful, right? From 9pm to 1am of singing, good lord. So rusty from singing and the sudden karaoke session made me lost my voice after 2 hours.
CD has to leave at 12.30am but when we went down to the lobby, she was sitting on the sofa. It was 1am. -_-||| HY and J are great, they can sing from 9pm to 3am. Applause please. WW arrived later and drove ES back. We took a short ride to a place where taxis were more so as not to call for one. After midnight, it’s expensive, ok?
Overall, the fun we had was worth all my painstaking hard work of organizing. Thanks girls and J for treating us to the karaoke (10% discount and 10% service charge makes no difference because the savings was only $1). Can know why you giving us this treat?
I’m so sleepy now. Still have to do my project, dang.
I finally found some people who want to go watch Phantom of the Opera! It starts on March 23, 2007 till April 15, 2007. Have chosen a date and hope that we will be able to make it. I think this time we shall buy Cat 1 seats. I doubt we’ll watch it the 2nd time. It’s a once in a lifetime thing as DD and my friend said. Go all out!
Now, I wonder if my friend is willing to part with the amount…
You know that, I am big fan of Ayumi Hamasaki is one of the most popular and influential Japanese pop singers, and is dubbed "The Empress of Pop", so this theme I dedicated to his. If you want edit me? just go to your profile than add description text as many you like. ^_*
