心上的人兒, 有笑的臉龐。

永遠的微笑 - 周璇


i am one of those who cringe at the idea of a channel8 anniversary gala. why copy tvb? esp when the gossip section of u-weekly talks abt like why are we copying the blue-red-green tv station to do 台慶, im those who will nod without even thinking.

but i guess i was wrong. the anniversary gala turned out to be so much better. the previous time they did one, i tot they tried a little too hard to deliver that nostalgia. like repeatedly playing the clips from 霧鎖南洋. but this time round i think they really put in some effort to see how they can present the past 45 years of tv to everyone.

and our national tv is already 45? that makes us even older than tvb. i didnt know this. our tv is so much like hongkong tv. during the 90s, our directors are from hongkong, our producers are from hongkong, isnt it strange that our dear channel8 is older than tvb?

it's nice to see them presenting the tv artistes in batches. especially when they got the bunch from the 1999 star search together. nick shen, vivian lai, qi yu wu, priscilla chan, jeff wang.. it was the time when star search was really an IN thing and i was sitting right in front of the tv on the finals to see who will win. and they got thomasOng too. hahahaha. yay.

and it's quite surprising to see that actually we have such a big bunch of people in mediacorp. esp after watching the tvb one yesterday. we are also as strong loh. maybe we can try getting the bunch of them here to dance for the opening other than just walking out and looking good. hahahahaha. we lack that celebration feel. maybe zoeTay and fannWong can come out singing some 'i love channel8' song. like the 一於去齊聲恭祝TVB song. and then have our mediacorp ceo come out with ms singapore. hahahaha. nice.

and the youtube video on top is 周璇's 永遠的微笑. i love it ever since watching election. there was this part during the gala when they showed 4 comedians who had past away, they started off with 蔡琴's 被遺忘的時光 and just when i was thinking 'not again..', they changed the background music to an instrumental version of 永遠的微笑. whoever thought of that, nice one.


on the other hand. watched TVB awards yesterday. i esp liked the part where they got the actors to enter in groups from 2 to 4 and to give a one-liner. like raymond lam's 'if i win today, i guess i have a lot of meals to..treat.' hahahahaha. nice. and wayne lai's 'i am 白果王[the one who always do not win]'.

萬千星輝頒獎典禮2008-最佳男配角--黎耀祥

but wayne lai won. 白果王 no more!! this is so overdued. even as 連子蓉 in MR, he is good. he is good in Steps, in Devil's Disciple, in When rules turn loose.. the most deserving award for this year's TVB awards. ha yu deserves his best actor too, but seeing him win is like seeing Martin Scorsese win academy award becase of Departed. yes. ha yu deserves it. but i think it should not be because of moonlight resonance but for when rules turn loose. and next year should be raymond cho's turn. raymond cho. without him, healing hands and forensic heroes would have been much more boring.


Mr.Children/花の匂い(Live ver.) 僕らの音楽

theme song for 「私は貝になりたい」. if 2216 is going to there for another 10 years. this might become one of the films for the course.
