Hate her 'coz she's up there

I still don't understand why she's hated. I loved her since her Day 1 in Xfactor UK. She has a very strong personality and she's very passionate about everything she does. Tendency is that people misunderstand her and find her bratty at times. Well, that's how some artists start off in this industry. What I like about her is that she learns from her mistakes and strives harder to do better. She's a natural talent and nobody could take that away from her. I just wish people would see her talent more than anything else.

To cher:
Just go on creating beautiful music 'coz we believe in your talent. Applause from the Philippines.

This is my top favorite among her songs. Sarcasm overload!
I was so thrilled when I first saw this music video. The most controversial graduate from Xfactor UK meets her male counterpart from Xfactor USA. haha!

Where do we go?

One of my favorite foreign alternative singers/songwriters is Jack Johnson. I actually bought copies of two of his albums - Curious George and In Between Dreams - because I am fascinated with this guys originality. Despite the "relaxing" general feel of his songs, they still have this certain power and sincerity that could lead you to ponder over several things. One of his songs that I am referring to is "Good People". It's basically about the effects that the boob tube brings into our lives (based on my interpretation).

In this song, Jack Johnson asked "Where all the Good People Go?", and such question struck me when I first heard this song back in 2006. It urged me to find an answer so I decided to write my own song as a response to it.

Well, here's my answer to your question Jack!
