"That is a performance worthy of World Idol."
That was Dick Lee in the first ever season of Singapore Idol during 2004. And it was during that period when i first started litty-witty.blogspot.com, and then on to watch-me-kill.blogspot.com. After a few years of online blogging, i've moved yet again to experience a new blogskin, new blog name and a completely brand new feeling. And yes, this is where you go "bobal macam real," but trust me, it took a lot to get that wretched skin up and running. My fingers are tired of those html-shit that all i wanna do now is lie back and let Taufik Batisah sing me to sleep.
Ah. Yes. Taufik. The dramatic significance of my first ever entry in Insanity Worths. I had YouTube to entertain me when i get bored waiting for my darling's call, and hence i stumbled upon old Idol clips during the Taufik-Olinda-Sly batch. Dick Lee's comments on Taufik's competition hit me so deep that for the second i wondered why it wasn't him who represented us in Asian Idol.
And though our water supply might be cut off by ever-jealous Malaysia when OUR Hady emerged tops against their Jaclyn Victor and the idols from Philippines, Indon, India and Vietnam, i congratulate Ken Lim for having enough faith in the crooner to choose him instead of Taufik. Because Batisah's son, in my opinion, has gone beyond Asian Idol. True to Dick's words, he's worth that WORLD IDOL title.
So all in all, congrats Hady Mirza for that completely unexpected win. You made Asia, Singapore and Taufik proud. Now go sujud syukur, go go go.
What bliss life is when things just go your way. Hady's expression when he was announced winner, was completely priceless. Much like my darling's cramped face when Tevez scored that goal for my Devils.
EAT YOUR HEARTS OUT, TORRES.
Bet you wished you should have joined Man U and donned that AIG jersey instead. Well, as they say, the best team and the best man wins.
Now as i watched myself typing in this little box, while listening to Taufik's "Berserah" and "Holding On" (yes darlas, AT THE SAME TIME), i feel like i just had a double win, though none of it affected me directly.
Glory Glory Hady Mirza. Justified Singapore Idol winner, now? Probably. Infact, an Asian Idol even. An upset victory for many. But the man DESERVED it. Just like how my Red Devils deserved that win over Liverpool. I FEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEL GOOD! Nanananananana...
But, ehem ehem, at the end of the day...
...Taufik Batisah is still my man.
