Original VS Remake

Did you know how piss off I am the first time I heard Ariana Grande and John Legend's remake of the song "Beauty and Beast"? I was so pissed off I want to stab someone's trachea.

The new version is so fucking irritating it lost its magical touch like what the original version has. Ariana and John Legend are good singers on their own but this duet is so MEH! The fuck they did with this wonderful song? GAHDDDDD! I WANT TO SCREAM MURDER! They do not have any chemistry at all and they lacked the emotion unlike the original singers Celine Dion and Peabo Bryson that made the song classic and magical... and which always brings me to tears every time I hear it. 

I'm really so pissed off just thinking about it.

And I just can't fucking comprehend why this video only have 16M+ views...

compared to this version...

So fucking annoying, right?

Now, who agrees with me?

"Beauty And The Beast"

(with Céline Dion)

Tale as old as time

True as it can be

Barely even friends

Then somebody bends

Unexpectedly

Just a little change

Small to say the least

Both a little scared

Neither one prepared

Beauty and the Beast

Ever just the same

Ever a surprise

Ever as before

Ever just as sure

As the sun will rise

Oh oh oh ooh

Ever just the same

Ever a surprise

Ever as before

Ever just as sure

As the sun will rise

Oh oh oh

Tale as old as time

Tune as old as song

Bitter sweet and strange

Finding you can change

Learning you were wrong

Certain as the sun 

(certain as the sun)

Rising in the east

Tale as old as time

Song as old as rhyme

Beauty and the Beast

Tale as old as time

Song as old as rhyme

Aside from watching Kong Skull Island over the weekend, I also watched this film with my uni bffs. This movie brought a lot of nostalgia to me. And I think, I cried two times while watching this film especially on the part where Belle and the Beast were dancing along to Mrs. Potts singing of "Beauty and The Beast". Haaay... that feeling.

I think 90 percent of the live-action movie stayed true to the original animation in 1991. And according to wiki, they just added four new songs for this film.

And hey, the actor playing the Beast is sooooooo freaking handsome! Nakakaloka si Dan Stevens ha. Especially with his long blond hair. So princely talaga ang datingan, eh. Yung long blond hair ang nagdala. I've also fallen in love with the Beast! LOL!

If you guys haven't seen this live-action film/remake of Beauty and The Beast, go watch it! Sobrang haba lang ng pila sa cinema. Mga isang oras kami nakapila bago nakabili ng ticket. But worth it naman kasi the film's really good.

I've watched this movie over the weekend with my uni bffs.

I am so proud of my dearest Tom Hiddleston for top billing this film! Although his name is on top of the billing cast, he wasn't stealing all the limelight. Hihi. And that makes Tom super nice.

Anyway, I didn't expect this movie would be that good. But I honestly liked it. I think it's the best Kong movie in all King Kong movies I've seen.

And if you're a Hiddlestoner, you definitely wouldn't want to miss this.

Obsession version 8: Ed Sheeran's new album " ÷"

Hey guys!

So Ed Sheeran just dropped his full-length third studio album last March 3rd and I'm totally raving about it! All tracks are quite good, but I have songs I super loved. I'm thinking of listing all of them here but I'm kinda lazy as of today so just let me tell you about my favorite track in ÷ (Divide)...

so far my all-time favorite track in Ed's new album is this song, Dive. ♥

Ed's vocal is soooooo amazing and the lyrics are so deep. I love it so much that I listen to this song every single day. 

Whatcha think about it, guys? It's great right? Yeah, I know. ;)

Ed Sheeran's "Touch" cover

I believe a lot of you guys know Little Mix's single "Touch". And to be honest, hindi ko masyadong bet ang kantang 'to, altho it's really nice, because of the sexual innuendo of the music video. Like meh. Are you girls really doing that for fame or something? I thought Little Mix are different from the usual groups or artists who sell sex with music. But the girls joined the band wagon. I'm so sad. Hindi ko `yan inakala sa kanila. I actually didn't like their new album Glory Days because of its sexual and explicit content. LOL! Parang Dangerous Woman ni Ariana Grande. I mean, magaganda naman `yung kanta talaga. But, do they really need to talk about sex in one whole album? Wth.

Hindi na ito child-friendly album. Knowing that they have a huge fan base for the young ones. Kung ako ang magulang, hinding-hindi ko ipapakinig sa kanila ang mga kantang walang ibang topic kundi sex. Makinig na lang kayo ng The Beatles or Michael Jackson. LOL! Seryoso. Kapag ako naging nanay, `yung oldies but goodies music ang ipapakinig ko sa mga anak ko. Also included sa child friendly music, ang mga kanta ng Arashi. Iyan talaga ang mga kantang para sa akin ay okay pakinggan ng mga bata.

Anyway, having said that, let's go back to Little Mix's "Touch" song. I did happen to like this song because of Ed Sheeran's cover. And I like his version better than the original one. Like seriously. Ed made the song's cover as if it was his own. He did his own flavor to the song.

Oh, gahds! I love this man so much! Super talented talaga ni Ed! I wish I could find someone like him kahit na hindi conventionally handsome, eh oozing with talent naman. For me naman, basta bet ko at hindi pogi para sa lahat, bet ko talaga. Lels. 

Maybe I...

I know I am not in love with him. Well, maybe I like him too much because if I don’t, then I’d not wait for him to text me or message me. Or get excited whenever he message me.

I don’t know why but I miss having conversations with him. He’s not even the type of man I wanted to end up with. But he makes me smile with all the silly and cute gestures he did to me.  And I’m fucking sad whenever he ignores me when I know he’s on line. Like I always need his attention.

I wish I know how to ignore him like he ignores me NOW. Maybe he doesn't really mean what he told me before. And I can fucking feel it.

I don’t want to assume things between us because at some point, I know we ain’t gonna see each other. We’re so miles apart.

I want to forget all these silly feelings he made me feel because I don’t want to get hurt in the end. And I always get hurt in the end with men I start to like.

Damn it.
