SELECTED POSTS

This page, NEWS & UPDATES which is actually the index page of this website has grown into a huge database of my almost daily ramblings of all stuff I hold dear to my heart, including gossips of the most sordid kind.

The list itself may be long but those selected few are the ones I thought drives home the point I wanted to make. Do check them out in MY POINT IS [Comments & Opinions].


SERIES' SUMMARIES

Sometime in 2004 I began reviewing selected series in an episode by episode way, where I called these reviews EPISODIC THOUGHTS. These thoughts are mostly summaries of each and every episode with my opinion of that episode included in it as well. I may not provide the most in depth summaries but I am very proud of the fact that I could keep the writing on such a long winded basis each and every night for the entirety of the series. I don't do this for each and every series though because it kills a lot of brain cells, mine as well as fellow netizens who often joined in the discussion by posting informative stuff. These thoughts are still open for feedback and discussion. Do check them all out in REVIEWS where it is indicated with an  [E] next to my name.

Limewire's greatness 
Permanent link Post a Comment

What an amazing file sharing programme! Amazing! Totally in awe. My sister gave me a whole list of songs to download, her quote saying "I doubt you can find them all but well you can try" and guess what? I found ALL of the songs. I knew I can find those songs because hey! Elvis' I Believe also got! You will know a person's age by simply scanning her list of songs.

Anyway I have been downloading like crazy these few days. So many songs that I had to buy new discs and all. You can download
Limewire Basic, punch in the name of the singer and voila! List of songs all MP3 quality. Amazing.

The first few songs I download was from the movie Newsies. Thanks to Pearl who helped me to identify which had Christian Bale singing in it, I download almost all of it. After repeated listening, I fell totally in love with The King Of New York. Such a catchy tune. And CB's singing in the song Santa Fe was infectious though not American Idol quality. But hey, he's miles better than Ace Young or Kevin Covais! I also loved listening to I Would Walk 500 Miles. What a romantic song and cute too. I am confused about the singer since sometimes Limewire's listing is incorrect. Then there's The Lion Sleeps Tonight. Wow!! But guess what? I found all the themesongs I wanted, and all original too! I also found some funny songs, my favourite being the song by Weird Al Yankovic's Rice Rice Baby. So funny I can't breath! I won't post all of them here since you can get Limewire and get the hard to find songs you always wanted. But here's a few I mentioned that you might like to download and listen to them again and again and again ...

Note : IE users, right click the title and choose Save Target As and Firefox users, left click the title and choose to save. For those using download managers, there's the URL. If the link doesn't work, the URL is always the correct one. If the link is really dead and broken, please tag the title to the Shout Box and I'll fix it pronto!

Trivia regarding King of New York - this song was written as an after-thought by sonmgwriters Alan Menken and Jack Feldman. But this one remains their favourite song from the Newsies since then.

In case the lyrics makes little sense to those who have never watched the movie, this song was sung in the part after the newsies had staged their first successful though spontaneous uprising against the newspaper. Denton (Bill Pullman) was there to capture the moment, and the next day he had given them a copy of the newspaper which published his report plus a huge photo of them, causing lots of buzz and excitment among them, hence "I was a star for one whole minute", and the part "an editor's desk for our star reporter" which referred to Denton's relationship to the boys.
