Superband (4th round)

its monday again and its time for SUPERBAND again! ok, i'm just bored. it isn't as entertaining and exciting as 绝对superstar or 校园superstar, but there is simply nothing better to watch. Jade went out last week, another band to be sacrificed in place of 夏日风. so what am i expecting this week?
-夏日风 netting the same o' score. come on! you can strive for a lower score! you can do it!
-Amber, Lucify, 静爆乐团, 史诺鼻 to be struggling.

why? Amber isn't there yet. they have never been there before. and they won't. last week was a break for them, but how many more songs are of the same genre as the song they sang last week?

Lucify. crap singers imo. i would bet that the lead singer will be walking the stage as if he is dragging a dog that refused to let him walk it around. sluggish. i would prefer him sitting down and sing. the only thing that is good to note is their appearance. nice makeup i must say. not everyone can wear that same makeup and has the effect like they do. but their singings + lead singer's sluggishness, i doubt they will have anything special. 周崇庆 will be giving them high pts regardless of anything as usual. that i can be sure. boo³ to him.

静爆乐团. as i have said last week, 'if it gets any boring... they will be in for a relegation battle.'. i believed the week for them has come. they may have 'shuaige' in the band, but with the inconsistency of their lead singer, its like predicting whether wigan will win its next match in EPL. i sure hope they can continue with their good performance... as i would love to see the next team i am going to mention out of this competition.

史诺鼻. its 鼻, not 比. that i just realised not long ago. back to topic. i have disliked them from the start and my dislike for them keeps growing. simple reason. you won't be able to see any jumping monkey while listening to the CD. all you will be able to hear is someone who is rapping off beat, off tune. first you were cheering for them, the next moment, CD in the bin. come on, just think. you expect them do sign the record contract and produce a CD that is 1 million times inferior to jay chou's? oh man, give me a break.

i will be expecting something great from Brods, 迷路兵 and J3. Juz-B might be running out of fuel as repetitive a-capella might prove to be their undoing. let the music begin!


B1.迷路兵
lOl! this is the best set up i have ever seen! everything seems to connect so well! everything was well planned and very entertaining! thats the stuff that would keep you asking for more during a concert! the effort put it is great! singing wise, at some part of the song, lead singer seems to sing off tune, but his singing technique and the unique voice is really something to look forward to!
9.9/10

B2.Juz-B
not as good as before. its just too repetitive. they need something new. their a-capella is a little confusing to me for today's performance. good, but if the same o' thing comes up again next week... it will be past expiry date.
8/10

B3.J3
soothing voices. the distribution of 'who sings what' is very good. nice effort! =D could be better if they have a change in their performance. like a few judges said, their voices are soothing, but not enough explosion in the chorus part. you know what i mean right? (yea, my translation sux, lOl)
9/10

B4.Amber
hm... an average performance. lingering on the border of good and bad. the vocal range required for this song is very big. its too much for the lead singer to handle. well... average. not as bad as i thought it would be. just average.
6.5/10

B5.静爆乐团
forget lyric. flat. cannot hit pitch. take unnecessary breath. off tune. off beat. all-in-one disaster.
4/10

B6.Soul
singing was worse than previous performances? thats what i thought. the dance during the singing isn't very confident and tidy. but the dance at the end is fantastic. as usual... they better buck up on their singing. their singing in previous performances was good for me, but this week, i thought it was bad. if you noticed, some of their dance moves are copied from previous performances... better make full use of them before the expiry date is up...
8.5/10

B7.Lucify
i simply love the jay chou's version of 蓝色风暴, but i cannot say the same for Lucify. quoting from simon 'it is that bad'. ok, not to that extent. but it wasn't good at all. the lead singer just simply scream the whole thing out. yea, as if he is going for a gang fight shouting the gang's fighting cheer. as usual, the lead singer has once again brought his dog along and his dog seems as reluctant as ever. lucky for you, you got a sugar daddy who will alway give you high score. call 周崇庆 your papa.
7/10

B8.史诺鼻
sigh. the more i see them, the more i hate them. other than the 'jumping monkey' and the appearances, the singing and crapping are crap and in a mess. i forgive the 'jumping monkey' for not being able to hit the pitch as i know it is DARN hard. but for the lau tak hua, come on, even my friend can do better than you. i bet you don't even know what you are rapping about. i wouldn't want to buy an album with a mediorce rapping and to see a 'jumping monkey' @ the concert. give me a ticket to their concert and a ticket to the zoo. i will take the latter.
6/10

B9.夏日风
omg! i actually do like the performance. to put it better, i like the performance of the LEAD SINGER. he did great! the others... as usual, are horrifying. i am confident that his rapping is much better than lau tak hua from 史诺鼻. nice movement from lead singer too! he is the soul of the band! a flower on a pile of shit. ok, i don't mean to be crude to the other members of 夏日风, just wanna show how outstanding the lead singer was. they should really consider finding another 2 female singers. i do not want to see them strangling those 2 female singers if they lost. as if listening to them sing isn't bad enough. too bad lead singer couldn't save the day enough. 1 good performer + 4 LOL performers = better of the WORSE. if they were still around next round, i hope to see the lead singer again. simply great!
6.5/10

B10.馒头
hm... music isn't very good. lead singer has improved. the unity and coordination still have alot of room for improvements. as average as usual. they might be going off soon once the major flops are gone. that means a few more rounds.
7/10

B11.Brods
nice dance and movement. the judges are crap. comparing theirs to professionals from Soul, of course it isn't anything great. why not compare 迷路兵's singing to Soul's singing? Soul is crap too. though rap isn't the brothers' forte, they were not too shabby. and i love their courage for trying out rapping. its a new change and a change that ain't bad is GOOD! and people likes GOOD changes! that means 1 less song for lau tak hua too! come on, seriously speaking. close your eyes and listen to Brods and lau tak hua rap, you will think that the latter is ripped from a broken pirated CD. nice change! provide a brand new performance. but i still prefer their old ways. man can never be satisfied. the judges are crap. 'i hope to see new changes in you all' 'hm... i think rap isn't for you all, the old style is better'. so what do you want judges? 猛男秀?
8.5/10

overall, i really think that the judges are insane. giving points any way they want as if they are keying in their lucky number for that particular moment. imo, 夏日风 is not too bad and do not deserve such low points. imo, 静爆乐团 was far more worse than them. Brods being the 2nd last? come on, start using your brains judges before they start to grow fungus. if you have difficulty giving out appropriate points, den don't bother to talk so much crap. and i still doesn't understand why 迷路兵 is always underrated despite such good feedbacks. imo, they are the best tonight. and if given a choice, i will turn off the TV after watching their performance. so for the prediction today. i will not be going with 夏日风 to be relegated, instead, i got a feeling 静爆乐团 or amber is gonna bite the dust today. i really hope my feeling is right... the last thing i want to see is for Brods to go out of this competition due to the stupid judges...

final prediction for 4th round : Amber.
