And we move on without Ekin onboard. I didnt actually get to watch the Diari but reading from Elkapitan's blog, its obvious she is missed especially by the girls and probably by Yazer on the guys behalf *hehe*. I doubt it if theres anything going on with Yazer & Ekin, it seemed so brother-sisterly with them. The chemistry aint really visible right? Or probably they are just good at hiding it?
At the start of this week, Yazer has been elected as Ketua Pelajar, replacing Mawi. This will surely not go well with his fans. I agree this is kinda odd, we have never had any change of Ketua Pelajar in any of the past AF and also why now at the later stage is there such changes. Is this so that the attention will be on Yazer who is currently second last on the chart? Will this be a rotational thing? Or is this passed on to students whom the Principal deemed to have performed well in the previous concert? Something worth to ponder indeed.
No doubt Yazer performed better in the last concert than Mawi. I dont buy excuses saying thats because Mawi isnt given a song that is makanan dia. He is on top so he has to prove his versatility in out-performing anyone else who has an easy song. But then again, Yazers' performance wasnt the better one last week, well not for me lah ah. I think its both Marshas & Amyleas. Or are the girls not eligible for the post? Anyway, I hope we do get to see some reasoning for all of this soon.
As of this moment, this is how the standings are;
Mawi 28%, Felix 20%, Akma 12%, Marsha 11% Amylea 11%, Yazer 9% Kefli 8%.
I'm sure everyone agrees when I say Kefli is in the right spot. But then again its in that spot, for the past few weeks that he has found shelter from wrath of the elimination process. So I dont think its anything to be happy about. For all we know, his next victim would be the current 3rd runner, Akma. I think this is the highest position shes ever been. All the girls in the running now has had a seat in that position and so far is all safe. Yazer is on shaky grounds, maybe his fans has stopped voting so that he can join Ekin instead? *hehe* Jangan mareee ehhh gang rocksteady ;P
As for Mawi, I'm still confident he will lead the pack to the very last concert and probably just run away with the title. I know some would say its a premature thing to call but according to my gut feeling (unprofessional ofcourse), its gonna be him who will be driving that orange Suzuki Swift and taking that trip to Europe...... whichI think he should runding with the tour operators to change it to a package Umrah instead. I'm sure lots of his fans, whos never had a thought about going to Umrah brfore would love to join his flight eh? Cruel? I dont think so, theres bound to be such souls. Like it or not, Mawi has no doubt opened the eyes of many with his presence so far, for wrong or right, wallahualaklam.
And so I'll leave you all today with the list of song assignments for this weekend and some bits of comments from moi about it.
Songs for Concert 08
Kefli - Hati Emas (M. Nasir)
Is he being thrown a lifeline? Its this song another savior? Probably.... A song that I like to kill my friends with at any public karaoke joint *hehe*. A no-brainer but knowing Kefli....
Marsha - Cobalah Untuk Setia (Kris Dayanti)
This song needs some strong vocals. So her whispery soft tone needs to go for a work-out or some yoga vocals to cover those high notes.
Mawi - Pupus (Dewa)
An Indon song for Mawi. Interesting. One of my favorite Dewa numbers. He has to be careful with the tempo and be able to flow with the melody. And then theres the quite challenging chorus and bridge bit. I'm looking forward for his rendition this weekend. Oh look into MawiFc.com discussion board, ada mention pasal Dewa Pejuang Yahudi! And read this reactions; "...patut la mawi susah nak hafal lagu...." "ALLAH HU AKBAR..tolonglah bagi semua org tahu email ini, terutamanya sifu m nasir kita...ada cara tak ?" "kepada sesiapa yg berkenaan sila maklumkan pada ASTRO / tenaga pengajar tentang hal yg memang gila...ya allah lindungi lah MAWI....." Curious? Read about the email HERE, its validity is questionable like the usual email layang. My question, why wasnt there so much hoohaa when Reza sang a Dewa song back then?
Akma - Selamat Jalan Romeo (Ramlah Ram)
Obviously she has no problem with the song. She just needs to borrow some of Marsha's getekness and not be so conservative with her lenggok/gelekness.
Felix - Hukum Karma (Wings)
One of my favorite Wings numbers. I guess if his throat is still hurting by saturday, we'll be hearing lots of falsetto from him huh? I do hope he recovers soon as I would like to see him go all out on this one.
Amylea - Dua Insan Bercinta (Ella)
Finally a rock ballad for this rock-by-nature babe. Not so much of a challenge really but it'll be interesting to see what difference she can bring to it. Kezutan Ella in the Diari or at the Concert? Hope so.
Yazer - Mengapa Harus Cinta (Vince)
He doesnt look comfy with it. Obviously as this song is written specifically for Vince range & style of voice. Yazer has his work cut-out here. Finally a song not his makanan. I'm looking forward for this though, if he can do a Vince-a-la-rock mode, then he'll be gold for the finals.
Bonus Song - Seri Langkat (Jamal Abdillah & Amelina) and Ladki Badi Anjani Hai (OST Kuch Kuch Hota Hai)
Should be fun to watch. I hope they are all better coordinated this time around.
Cyas!
VOTE for DahDemam! Its free! *hehe*
