Xin Xiu Singing Competition..

Ok, the sudden lack of posts is due to the sudden lack of inspiration to blog. However, there is great news, and great videos to watch, as Melissa has done it again, winning yet another singing competition. This time, I can say its the biggest she has ever won as it is a very competitive and difficult competition to win, as there are so so so so many contestants that so many knockout stages had to be held.
.
.
Anyway, just a short background on the competition, from semi-finals, there will be 20 decided to go into the finals. In the final itself, you are required to sing half a song and if u manage to enter the top 5 with that performance then u will automatically go into singing another full song. If u fail to enter the top 5, another 5 out of the remaining 15 will have to sing another half-song(that previously have been sung by other contestants) to prove that you are worthy enough to enter the full-song level. Out of this 5, 2 will be chosen to enter the full-song stage. Once the full-song stage is over, the top 3 will be selected to sing ONE cantonese song completely accapella with no music accompaniment. The winner would represent Melbourne to take part in some competition in Hong Kong which gathers the winners from all over the world(dunno wat extent is this 'world' though) hosted by China's own TVB8.

Mel sang 'Zhen Shi' by Ah Mei as her half-song, followed by 'Zhi Ji' (chinese version of Christina Aguillera's 'Reflection") as her full song. In entering the top 3 both rounds, she completed the final cantonese song with flawless vocals (fuuh..praise much eh...) to win it all....

Not to say there was no competition though..check out this dude singing Bei Pan

.

And this girl singing some other cantonese song which I've heard so often...

.
.
.

This girl tried another difficult song. Ah Mei's Yong Gan. I thought she was quite ok, just that the song was a little out of her range. She struggled to reach the extremely high notes and it showed a slight weakness in her vocals...But if I could sing like this, I'm perfectly satisified...lol..

and finally the results..

hear the votes and cheers for Mel..
