Karaoke

I like to sing. There was a time when I went drinking, and singing karaoke every Friday night with friends. We had fun. Well, I had fun anyway. My friends were too kind to tell me to shut up and not sing, that I sound horrible. Come to think of it, it must have been quite tortuous for them to have to listen to me. I am not a good singer at all. But I didn’t know that until one day, using the recorder on my cell phone, I recorded my own singing. Boy, how I cringed when I heard the playback.

Maybe after a few drinks, my voice didn’t matter so much to my friends. What mattered was the company of friends enjoying a few drinks together and having a fun evening.

Anyhow, last week, a friend and I booked a karaoke room with Teo Heng Family KTV Studio and we went singing.

But before that, a simple lunch at the ‘My Kampung’ food court.
Chicken and roast pork rice and a soya bean drink.
My friend belting out a song.
Both of us are not good singers. So, that was all right. We tortured each other for two hours, and it was fun singing karaoke again.

The Bellamy Brothers

‘No Country Music For Old Man’ - This is another song which didn’t impress me when I first heard it. But, because it was the Bellamy Brothers, I listened to it for a few more times, and it kind of grew on me. The song is kind of sad. It talks about a bygone era, which makes me nostalgic and melancholy.

Have a listen to the song and see what you think, or how you feel - if you are not too young to know the Bellamy brothers. Listen also to their first hit - "Let Your Love Flow"

No Country Music For Old Men

The Bellamy Brothers performing ‘Let your Love Flow’ in 2012. They recorded the song in 1976. It went on to become the number 1 song on the billboard hot 100. It was also an international hit.

Let Your Love Flow

The Dead South

" In Hell, I'll Be In Good Company" - When I first heard this song, I didn't like it at all. But there was something about the video that made me go back to have a look again. The second time I heard the song, I thought it was that so bad after all. Slowly, the song grew on me. Now I find myself humming the tune every now and then.

I have not heard of this band ‘The Dead South’ before. Curious to know who they are and what genre their music belongs to, I looked up Wikipedia. Apparently, the band was formed in 2012 in Canada, and the music belongs to the ‘folk-bluegrass’ genre.

Give it a listen and see what you think.

The Shadow of Your Smile

This was my entry for the Shadow Hunters Contest in the Hive blockchain.

“The brightest flame casts the darkest shadow.” - George R.R. Martin,

Shadows of a walkway shelter. Our government spent a fair bit of money building these shelters. They are all over the island. Shelters linking one apartment block to another; from apartments to bus stops, from bus stops to malls. I think Singaporeans are too pampered. Most do not even know how lucky they are.

The Shadow Hunter Contest/SMASh is run by @melinda01011 If you are interested in joining in the fun, check out the rewards and the rules of the contest 👉 HERE

And, for your listening pleasure -
