I also watch Singapore Idol too, U noe?... =p

Today, I ta bao some Ee Mee for dinner and while at it, I "accidentally" turned on the TV and voila!, Singapore Idol was just about to start. Since I had not seen a single episode of this singing competition franchise, I decided to stay seated and see what everything is all about. The hype created by the show and excellent publicity ensured that I recognise at least 2 contestants, Paul Twohill and Jonathan Leong.

Now, the good thing about coming into the show at this late stage, is that you don't have to cringe on your sofa. All four finalists were entertaining, but I think Dick Lee will win. Just joking. I think Jonathan will nap it. He seems so cool, great singing and he just can't seem to do anything wrong in the judging panel's eyes(ears). But if I were to place a wager, I wouldn't put any Greenback's on him. The odds(payout) will be too low. And if the First Rule of soccer punting is anything to go by, in order to win moo-lah, you should bet to lose. I'll probably put my "Yusok Bin Ishak"s on Paul Twohill. I wonder if Ladbrokes accept such bets.

I like the first song that Jonathan sang. This is the one.

Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol
We'll do it all
Everything
On our own

We don't need
Anything
Or anyone

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

I don't quite know
How to say
How I feel

Those three words
Are said too much
They're not enough

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life

Let's waste time
Chasing cars
Around our heads

I need your grace
To remind me
To find my own

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life

All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see

I don't know where
Confused about how as well
Just know that these things will never change for us at all

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?


So beautiful right? I love the chorus.

Those three words
Are said too much
They're not enough

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
