Shunza 順子

Zhe Xin (Zhe Jin's sister) left a random comment on my page that my voice in Fairy Tale Ending sounded like 順子 unplugged. I chuckled. I've had 順子 comparisons since the day I stepped into Taiwan. One, probably because we both have wide faces. And two, because we have a western jazz/soul approach to our music. What's even more uncanny is that the producer that is working with me now is, ta-da!! the producer who first discovered and developed 順子。 Yea. What a coincidence.

順子 has a gorgeous voice. One of the best vocalists I've heard around. I think her vocals are much better than mine. But I think, for now, that I write more commercially than her. Her stuff, except for the 'radio single' is very very eclectic and weird. Beautifully sung, played and produced. But definitely not easy-listening or 'commercial'. Still, she managed to be quite popular in Taiwan.

Hmmm...just a random post.

Love Alicia...but....

I've loved Alicia Keys since I was a teenager. She's gorgeous, talented, with an impeccable image of ghetto funkiness plus classy elegance. Love her voice and love her ideas. But....the lyrics....have more often than not been ...disappointing. I do think this article provides accurate critique of her work.

There is still a chance for the 71,849 single men

I opened my facebook profile and LO and BEHOLD, I saw a string of comments, wall comments and msgs in my inbox congratulating me about my 'not-single anymore status'. Why? Because I decided to remove the 'single' listing on my Facebook profile. I merely didn't want to post it up anymore. A whim that resulted in... HILARIOUSNESS! Here are a couple of samples: "Charis has been woozy since thursday, is it luvvve??" "huh? o_O? is there something i don't know??" "so when u going to belanja us all makan??? >. "heh.... really!?....there are 71,849 single men in brisbane who will be very dissapointed... very.." "is this for real .. if so, congrats charis :-)" "Hey great news to hear, Congrats loh! By the way who is the lucky Guy?" " Hey. No longer single? Share some news. ;) " Man o man!
