JYPark Comeback - Live @ Korea Film Award

3 12 2007

I can’t help but I must put this video at my blog instead of Dancelove . This is JYP’s live @ 20071201 Korea Film Award LIVE today/yesterday. He performed a special melody and his comeback new songs from his Seventh album! Yea, he is really a  dancing gorilla , unique dancing style. But I do enjoy this JYPark’s performance. It’s fun to watch to him and the audience…LOL, he is entertaining and he dances really hard. No surprise that he rules the stage because he is the very top artist/singer in Korea of the “last generation” plus producers of super stars like Rain and Park Ji Yoon.

JYPark’s live shows me one more thing: that’s the reason why nearly all Korean pop singers, excecpt ballad, indie and rock bands, need to dance, know how to dance and must dance for their live show. It’s a CULTURE/Tradition and value. Top producer and respectful pop singer, like JYPark also regards dance training as important as vocal training for an artist in the entertainment industry, so do the new groups and rising idols.
(P.S. Wow, I can see FaaYoung as background dancer for JYPark; who is she? She is the main female dancer for Rain, also do solo dance with Rain ^_^ *Happy*)

200% 推介你看JYPark (朴鎮英/朴鎮榮)在韓國電影頒獎禮上的表演。那也是宣傳他與上張唱片六年後發行的第七張新唱片。在香港知道 Rain 的人很多。知道 JYPark會是多、或是少呢?  JYPark 就是 JYP Entertainment 的 CEO,也是韓國國寶級的音樂人、R&B始祖、Rain 及 Park Ji Yoon 的經理人。當年張學友的”頭髮亂了”也是改自JYPark 的歌。如你細心看以下的表演,現年35歲的JYPark 真是寶刀未老,仍沒有改他個人獨特的跳舞風格(不是人人接受到)。也許在體力上你可以看得一點點力不從心,可是你看到他用心地跳、十分認真地表演,再加上對舞台的駕御力,一絲不苟,還會和觀眾互動,不會自恃為頂尖製作音樂人,而少了一份專業的認真態度,也可會自以為已出名,而不努力宣傳。JYPark 的成功不單單是幸運。最值得一提是他的表演令我明白,那是一種文化,由上一代的音樂人傳至下一代,他們認為表演是必須包含了唱歌和舞蹈的元素及訓練,因此你可以見到現在新一代當紅的歌手、組合,也是需要懂得跳舞、需要去跳舞、也要表演跳舞。那是一種”文化”! 香港呢? 不要談跳舞(跳舞不是打側手翻、跳舞也不是行左行右),唱 Live 也很勉強。

喜歡Pussycat Dolls 的人,一定會認識 Nichole Scherzinger,她是 Pussycat Dolls 的主音,她的新 Single 名叫 Her Name is Nicole (上面是Single 的封面)。她的新 album  是由著名的 Black Eyed Peas 內的 Will-I-Am 監製,相信有一定的水準。下面有是她 Single 內的主打歌 “Whatever U Live” Music Video 及 現場表演 video!

Oh, I know this post should be in the Dancelove blog instead, but I just can’t help myself puting it here. Nichole Scherzinger’s debute new singer will be out on October 16th(above is her new single’s cover). But it seems that her new album produced by Will-I-Am(from Black Eyed Peas) called Baby Love’s dropping out date is not fixed yet. Enjoy her live and mv of her new song “What ever You like” below!

So you think you can dance Finale & Backstage interviews

18 08 2007

so-you-think-dance2.jpg


Oh, finally, Sabra won the competition. Congratulation! I like what Nigel & Sabra said in the backstage interivew (videos are at the very bottom of this post). You can also see a post with all the dancers’ interviews @ DanceLove .

Nigel: “…But Sabra winning because of she has only 4 years (trainings) so inspirational for America and it said to America. Look! you don’t have to start dancing at 3 or 4 years of age. You start now, you even considering start dancing, begin dancing, does it make an impact on your life.”

Sabra: “…Don’t give up, you never know what’s gonna be happened…you have believe in yourself. …because when you believe in yourself, people will believe in you!”

You know “So You Think You can Dance” is tremendously successful, it is not only because they have great dancers and great choreographers, but the whole production team behind, the design of the show including program rundown, lighting, video-shooting, and the theme/vision of the show. To search for America’s favourite dancers in our daily life! And as audience, you can participate to vote and make people’s dream comes true. The contestants are professionals now, but they are stones on the surface around us and waiting to become diamonds when they have a chance to grow.

I really respect Nigel Lythgoe . He is a great producer of these popular show like So You Think You can Dance  and  American Idol. In our daily life, there are talents around us, or you may be one of them.  If you are given a chance/an opportunity, you can be the star! That’s dream and if you believe in your dream and you, don’t give up, work hard and you will have your way and you will succeed when you pursue your dream.

I don’t know why. Is it Hong Kong’s culture and mindset or the production team in our entertainment industry is in a rather conservative mindset and close system? Hong Kong TV copied the American Idol, but they just copied the worst examples - William Hung . So, we only have those “Ding”(叮) tv program. You know, in fact, those contestants in American Idol are phenomenal. For example Fantasia (season3 winner) and Jordin Sparks(Season 7 winner), winners of the show are very talented. See Jordin’s performance video below.

“Start something you truely love and are passionate about. Never give up, believe in yourself and make your dream comes true!”

Cory Lee just released her 2nd album - Sinful Innocence

25 05 2007

corylee.jpg


讓我來介紹一下 Cory Lee,我一向很喜歡 Sexy和 talented 的 R&B 女歌手,尤其是會跳舞的。記著看最下的 MTV - “Overload”  (My favorite ^_^)。

Cory Lee 是加拿大女R&B歌手,中德混血兒,8 歲開始學唱歌,15歲時,Hong Kong Sony 邀請她加盟新女子組合 Ris-K (P.S. 不過我沒有聽過有這女子組合),Cory 拒絕了。卻加入一隊叫 NRG的組合。因為 SARS ,Cory 返回加拿大發展,在 2006年推出她的第一張專輯,由 club 興起後,加拿大電台很快便播出她的第一隻 Single: “The Naughty Song” 。最新推出的 Sinful Innocence 是她的第二張個人大碟。

I want to introduce Cory Lee to you. I really love sexy and talented female artist, esp. those who dance well.  “Overload” MTV is great. Check it out at the bottom.

Cory Lee is a hot multi-threat actress, singer, songwriter, dancer and model. Born and raised in Vancouver B.C., Cory took singing classes at the age 8. At age 15, Cory turned down an offer from Sony Hong Kong to join an all-girls group called Ris-K. Eager to explore her Chinese roots and to see the world, in 2002, Cory joined another group called NRG performing in Hong Kong. Things went well until the unfortunate SARS outbreak hit Asia and Cory returned Cananda to focus on a solo career. In 2006, her music caught fire in the clubs across Canada, and radio soon followed with her first single “The Naughty Song” (from her debut album What A Difference A Day Makes). The newly released Sinful Innocence is her second album.

Dirty Dancing gets Rereleased in Movie Theaters For 20th Anniversary

25 04 2007

(via slashfilm)

Lionsgate is celebrating the 20th anniversary (God, are we that old?) of Dirty Dancing by rereleasing the film in over 300 movie theaters for a special two night engagement. Dirty Dancing is a 1987 Classic , and also Classics of all the movies about dancing…This exclusive two-night-only event will be presented in over 300 AMC and Regal Entertainment Group movie theatres across the United States… more

Dirty Dancing 原來已經 20 週年了,這是跳舞電影的經典。這是 1987 年的電影,在 HMV 買回來的 DVD,到現在仍是百看不厭。可惜未能在大銀幕回味這些經典的電影! 真的很懷念舊時! 我真的老了! LOL!

What about the story? Dirty Dancing is the story of a naïve girl who meets an experienced dance instructor and becomes his pupil in dance and love. It’s an Oscar®-winning film. OK, Hong Kong  is not going to show it in threatre anyway. Luckily, I have already bought a DVD copy from HMV long time ago. But I always want to watch these classics at the big screen in the cinema. Really miss the old days! Am I that old ? LOL!

Enjoy the Dirty Dancing dance video below.
