NUS Karaoke Competition - 李香兰

Last night, I went down to NUS Guild to sign up for the NUSS Karaoke Competition ON THE SPOT! Yeah, you are right, no preparation. Gung Ho arhhh???

I chose a song while I was driving to the Guild House, and started practising on the go. When I arrived, okay, they have the song. Guess what? Half way through it, the song stop playing!!!

Reason: Disc corruption (@#!%$^&*#@)

So I was given 5 minutes to re-select. This is my replacement song: 李香兰. Yeah right, last minute, things can happen will usually happen (to me lah!).

Result: Advanced to quarter-final!!!

Yeahhhh hooooo....!

恼春风
我心因何恼春风
说不出
借酒相送
夜雨浓
雨点透射到照片中
回头似是梦
无法弹动
迷住凝望你
裉色照片中

碍…像花虽未红
如冰虽不冻
却像有无数说话
可惜我听不懂

碍…是怀酒渐浓
或我心真空
何以感震动

照片中
那可以投照片中
盼找到
时间裂逢
夜放纵
告知我难寻你芳踪
回头也是梦
仍似被动
逃避凝望你
仍深印脑中

woo... woo...

碍…像花虽未红
如冰虽不冻
却像有无数说话
可惜我听不懂

碍…是怀酒渐浓
或我心真空
何以感震动
