He is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither. Whatever he does prospers.

Music. Glee. Charice

Friday, July 16, 2010

Music is an art form whose medium is sound. Common elements of music are pitch (which governs melody and harmony), rhythm (and its associated concepts tempo, meter, and articulation), dynamics, and the sonic qualities of timbre and texture. The word derives from Greek μουσική (mousike), “(art) of the Muses.” –source: wikipedia

Glee is a musical comedy-drama television series that airs on Fox in the United States. It focuses on a high school show choir (a modern glee club) called “New Directions”, at the fictional William McKinley High School in Lima, Ohio. – source: wikipedia

Charice, is a Filipina singer who rose to popularity through YouTube. Dubbed by Oprah Winfrey as the Most Talented Girl in the World, she is the first Asian in history to land in the Top 10 of the Billboard 200 album chart. – source: wikipedia

When I was young, I mean younger than I am right now I always wanted to become a singer and I love music, but I never expected to be an awful singer until now, I thought I was cursed or something. The truth is I have a good singer aunties and uncles and most of my relatives can sing. In my family, I’m the only one left behind in terms of singing. My mum, dad and my 2 siblings can sing, while me? Hahah never mind. Whenever my friends visits at home to hang out we do jamming sessions or sing through a videoke machine. It was fun. It was those days when I was in highschool.

I remember during my highschool days when I accidentally join a glee club in our school. I was not supposed to be joining that kind of club because I know that I have no place in the music scene and most of the song compositions don’t like my voice. Hahaha. Then it took me weeks before I decided to quit after the group were told to  auditioned. During the audition day, at first I was hesitant but I made up my mind to have lots of guts to face one of the Madrigal singers. I was following every dooo’s, reeee’s, miiiii’s as what I was told to sing. As far I know, it was a vocal practice where during morning before you speak you do that kind of routine. It was really awkward. I mudered my own self. Just imagine how I gathered so much guts. Hahah. We were told to audition so that us, bad singers, will be kick out in the club (too bad I heard from the conversational from our vocal coach and from the auditioneer). The founder of our school facilitated it and also the singing contest to give honor of the Immaculate Conception Fests. Even those neighboring barrios were also encouraged to join for the said event. Too bad, it didn’t happen because mostly of the neighboring barrios didn’t cooperate. It was a chance of a lifetime that they’ve missed.

As I grow up as person that lacks the gift of singing, I never lose hope that one day I will be able to sing in a very excellent tone. Looks impossible, isn’t it? But, I’m not giving up. Charice as I look at her, she symbolizes a Filipina woman that is equipt with a deadly-dreaded weapon. She’s young but she never fails to amaze me specially when she started to open her mouth and put her soul in the song. She’s like a box covered with tapes that when you started to open it you get to feel excited and you can’t stop from smiling as you pulled and managed to untagle the tapes that wrap the box. I know, Charice will do bring a lot of good stuffs of herself and not only for the Asians but as a proud Filipina as well. Good luck to you Glee t.v. series and more power Charice!
