    Default SPCNET Idol 2 - Background music division 1

    SPCNET Idol 2

    After a rather memorable singing competition in May this year, where we discovered the tasty goodness of cheesecake, SPCNET Idol is back for the second season.

    I would like to thank spcnet for kindly donating $20 to the winner of SPCNET Idol and for being so supportive of this competition. Despite his plea to remain anonymous, I am sure you will all recognise that netdriftr is again helping me host this competition, just like the days of Actress Battle Royale, only with less bit-… I mean, conflict.

    Everyone who entered deserves a round of applause. The entries are amazing!

    I am sure most of the contestants would appreciate constructive criticism, but please also recognise that we are mostly amateurs here and for a lot of people, it is their first time recording or mixing. Everyone really entered for fun- and some of them only did so to support me (cough blackmail) - so keep that in mind when you comment on the entries.

    The following CRITERIA will be applied for voters:
    Join date must be earlier than the 24th of November 2007
    Post count must be greater than or equal to 15

    All entries are located at
    http://www.blankie.net/spcnet

    All polls will close in 6 days time. Please check the polls for the exact time.

    Finalists are to submit their entries by the end of the 3rd of January 2008 Pacific Time.



    Background Music Division 1



    BGM1NO1 - One Person One Dream
    Vivian Lai's popular song from the 90s (played constantly in my house by my teenage male cousins)

    BGM1NO2 - Waiting for You
    I chose the song because it consists of about 12 lines, so it is super easy to sing. And also because this is 1 of my favorite songs from Jacky Cheung. O yea and Jacky Cheung is the original singer.

    BGM1NO3 - San Guo Lian
    My favorite song from tank as well. i love the way the song can sound like an 'olden chinese song' and contemporary chinese song at the same time. i sound eek especially in the 'deng dai liang ren guai lai' lines but here it is...

    BGM1NO4 - Dang Ni Gu Dan Ni Hui Xiang Qi Shui
    Message from the entrant: Wow! Never expected a second season of SPCNET Idol so soon! The first one was a blast, and I'm sure the second one will be even better. Looking forward to hearing some familiar voices and hopefully many more new ones. After all, 0-0-0 promised more cute female voices this year...

    BGM1NO5 - Kai Shi Dong Le
    This is my first time joining spcnet idol and I found out about it on the 27th. The song I chose was Kai Shi Dong Le (开始懂了) or Beginning to Understand by Stefanie Sun (孙燕姿). I tried to sing it in my own style...note the word tried.

    1) This is Vivian Lai's song? This person sounds almost as good as Vivian Chow.

    2) More emotion and energy please. If you really like this song, I suggest you show it. ( That's what Simon Cowell wanted me to say. The devil made me say it. )

    3) You have somewhat a deep voice. I actually like your voice more at the parts where you thought it was eeek. Your voice sounds more upbeat in a higher note? But good job!

    4) Good. Sounds like you enjoy this song. You must be Gugu's e-crush.

    5) Oooh! You sound so cute! I don't know if it was the recording or not but your projecting of your voice wasn't consistent, I think.

    I'll have to vote for hmm....1 or 4? I'll choose for 1.
    I just love how you Captivate My Mind

    Is that why you didn't vote for him?
    I enjoy #4 A LOT!
    Such a smooth, cute, ...*giggles* I like the voice.

    Wow, this one is very hard to choose from.

    1) Your voice sounds as if you've had professional training Very nice.

    2) Not bad. There were sections when I thought more energy was needed, but again, I think you got better towards the end.

    3) I despise Tank; but I think you sang this song quite well . And I enjoyed the lines that you thought were 'eek' the most.

    4) Very nice. I liked the acapella slightly more (that is, if you are Gugu's 'e-crush', and I've got the right person), but still great!

    5) Awww, so cute. You've got potential; work on controlling the voice though. Great job


    Applause for everyone

    It's a very tight one between no1 and no4... but I think I prefer no4. So sorry to whoever is no1.

    As for no2... I agree with Suet Seung's assessment. Why do you sound so dead?! A perfectly beautiful song's been ruined just like that!

    I agree with Suet Seung on no5 too. You sound so cute, but you need to have some consistency. You started off very well, having energy and then suddenly there was a drop of energy with you sounding dead.

    um you know, maybe i have learnt my lesson about coercing people to join, coz the ones suet seung said sounded non-energetic are the ones who pretty much got blackmailed or guilt tripped into joining

    Holy, #1 sounds AMAZING....SO PROFESSIONAL! I don't like cute guy voices so it's definitely gonna be #1....I'm being honest, #1, you should make a career out of it, you'll put tons of people out of business =P

    I think it's the same girl who did Yun Jeung, Eternal Happiness. I put those on my mp3.

    Yeah truly super amazing........... Master in disguise, what a talent!
    I was like, 'Are you sure this is a recording and not from some actual album?'
    Soooo good, I can't stop listening to it.

    Dang Ni Gu Dan Ni Hui Xiang Qi Shui is a song I really really like. I think the singer does the song justice. He sings it very well.

    Unless something funny happens, I think it is a fight between 1 and 4. 1, best voice in the comp but my vote goes for 4 because he deserves it from what happened last time

    Yeah, i think 2 of the best voices in the competition are 1 and 4.
    I think #3 also did a great job with a song i originally didn't like that much. The 'eek' parts are really cute too

    I'm gonna have to go with #1. I think it's the best entry in this division. The others were also very good.
    I would love to change the world, but they won't give me the source code.

    #1 has a GREAT voice! All the more impressive because it's all natural, no use of reverb or other sound editting that I can tell. Extremely impressive. You probably could make it on American Idol.

    I can't seem to recall hearing this voice the last time.

    Good luck! You have my vote.
