TUBE GRUDGE

Since I’m going to start working on Monday, I’ve been lazing around watching TV and baking muffins (like I don’t watch tv ,any other day ;p) Anyway, this morning started off bad as I had this screaming n kicking episode with my nephew. Ha, he’s the star and I can’t even remember what was the shouting all about..wait, oh, I do!-- Banana Muffin. Never mind, he’d remember how I kicked his a** everytime he ever looks at a muffin again.  That’s the thing between the youngest child and the eldest nephew.

Beautiful morning was well ruined, I was looking forward to cherish the 8-11 am slot. My only hope was the cleaning and the tv to make my day. The mop plays along but the tv?—what happens to tube this day? even channel surfing are no fun anymore. I made the biggest mistake in this lifetime, when that very moment I held the remote and pressed 71. I was reading. Then, I heard this song.., my song, I mean my most most most favourite song, that I’ve been loving it like since 6 years ago..and still playing in my winamp 3-7 times a day—being played on MTV. I didn’t even dare to look as the song was not how it was supposed to be sung, it wasn’t his voice, and it was nothing but weird. Maybe the astro signal got interrupted or something, I guessed. I knew I guessed wrong and by the time “And I don't want to go home right now” , I had enough and looked up--then I totally know now how heart attack felt like. I saw I.R.I.S written at the corner of the screen but I didn’t see John Rzeznik, instead I was watching this clean cut guy wearing white, irish look with germ size charisma to sing this song. Of course, it’s Roanan keating (ronan?). What is he doing in the video clip? Cameo for goo goo dolls’Let Love In gimmic?—GGD will sing in the chorus? Then I realized the music arrangement was different and obviously the video clip was all wrong too. Instead of having scenes from City of Angels, analogically it looked like some Hidalgo banned soundtrack (I said banned- as to respect hidalgo production team). What does it has anything to do with desert and singing on top of Dubai most luxurious and exclusive hotel in the world? Looks like it is his song after all.

I was heartbroken. It felt something like the time I realized Wentworth M. (that Scofield guy in Prison Break) stars in Mariah Carey’s We Belong Together, but even sicker. I felt like infected, got some zombie vibe or anything similar I wish I can explain. How dare they turn this song –this one and only English song that I truly love, and please note that I don’t like the movie that much.- into THAT? Out of all singers, why on earth is Keating singing it? He may did well with that Notting Hill ost, but this is iris. No one can sing this better than John Rzeznik, so y keating did so since he’s always gonna b second best? This is an insult for the industry. Imagine ‘I don’t wanna Miss a Thing sung by Guy Sebastian. Even that Aussie sounds good, and looks better, no way he can match the Tyler much known aura and chemistry to that song.

If u have seen the music video, u know what I mean. I felt sick, watching the wind blowing on his face, while he contorted this suppose to be hurt and dying expression,-- riding a handsome horse along the beach—and yep, there was fire too! The song is so off beam without binoculars, tower and Rzeznik hair. It’s like the music director expected us to cry after watching it.

Beautiful morning, my b**@##&^)**&!%@##&~!!%$@?>!

Cry?.. I prefer swearing.
