Nice song. I learnt about this song when I was watching the play “Singapore” by The Necessary Stage. Great stuff. The verses are OK, but the chorus is killer. The Carpenters never disappoint.

Free Music
Sunday, 19 February, 2012
I think I sort of figured it out. The “problem” with music nowadays is that it is so freely available. (I say “problem” in inverted commas.) Any band that releases a new single would probably first put it on YouTube. You can listen to all of Coldplay’s new singles on YouTube. You can listen to [...]
RIP Whitney
Monday, 13 February, 2012
You always remember exactly what you were doing when you hear about the death of your favourite personalities. I remember when I first read about Michael Jackson’s death, and I will always remember how I heard about Whitney Houston’s death. Let’s just focus on her career for now. I consider her to be one of [...]
Proposal From “Runaway Bride”
Friday, 30 December, 2011
ST left a comment a few posts earlier (here) and shared this interesting clip from “Runaway Bride”, which showed a rare occurrence of a lady proposing to a man. Now I’ve never seen “Runaway Bride” before (I’m guessing it’s one of the more missable of Julia Roberts’ romantic comedies?), but I found this scene strangely [...]
“I’m Not That Girl”
Saturday, 17 December, 2011
(From the musical “Wicked”) I’m Not That Girl Hands touch, eyes meet Sudden silence, sudden heat Hearts leap in a giddy whirl He could be that boy But I’m not that girl Don’t dream too far Don’t lose sight of who you are Don’t remember that rush of joy He could be that boy I’m [...]
Defying Gravity
Wednesday, 14 September, 2011
Recently I have somehow been obssessed with the song “Defying Gravity” from the musical “Wicked”. As in, like, it’s been swimming in my head for days. And whilst searching on YouTube, I chanced upon this clip from a show called “The Glee Project”. And can I just say that I think the girl in the [...]
Lady Gaga Does It Again
Saturday, 20 August, 2011
No seriously, she’s come up with yet another irresistably catchy hit. I don’t really care so much for Gaga’s dressing and antics and stuff, but I’ve found a lot of her songs to be extremely well-crafted. Say what you like about her, she’s got the ability to deliver songs with unbelievably catchy choruses. You’ve got [...]
New Coldplay Song
Thursday, 30 June, 2011
I dunno about this one man. It’s their new single called “Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall”. Most of the comments on YouTube seem to be very positive. I get that Coldplay is trying to slowly but steadily move into a new musical direction, towards a new sound perhaps. I say “slowly” because you can still [...]
Lolness!

Many thanks to LF for sharing this vid with me. In keeping with the Spider-Man musical topic, the above clip had me in stitches! Who knew Sesame Street could be so wickedly funny?
Montages
Friday, 17 June, 2011
There is something to be said about montages of TV series being played to the backdrop of a great song. I mean, here I was just surfing YouTube for one of my favourite songs from “Wicked” called “I’m Not That Girl”, and I stumbled upon this montage of a TV series which I know absolutely [...]
