One In A Million (OIAM) Season 3 ~ Top 8

I'm doing a point form review today, easier to read and straight to the point tongue. Straight to the 'point', get it? rotfl

Theme : Opposites Attract (male singing female songs, female singing male songs)

Eliminated : Anith

Guest Judge : Jay Jay (What's with the shades dude?? Malam gelap2 pun pakai cermin mata hitam...)

Tomok ~ Gantung (Melly Goeslow)
* I'm unfamiliar with the song
* Too many low notes, unsuitable for Tomok's vocal
* Too simple, no drama, no energy, no surprise = boring

Amylea ~ I'm Yours (Jason Mraz) Watch the video here!
* Loved her style but dislike the drawings on the arm
* Loved the performance love applause
* Dynamic voice with attitude and oozed confidence
* Make up = Merah sangat lah mak ngah heehee

Aweera ~ Tiada Lagi (Mayang Sari)
* Perfect song for him
* Good interpretation of the song
* Should sing more slow songs

Rizu ~ Mercy (Duffy)
* Enjoyed 2nd half of the song (Chorus)
* Chuck the red bow tie!
* Loved the attitude

Simon ~ When You're Gone (Avril Lavigne)
* Too plain looking
* Not exciting
* A bit nasally
* Predictable sleep

Fify ~ Pria Terhebat (Sheila On 7)
* Powerful voice but no dynamics
* I was too distracted by her red shoes
* Stagnant, same style every week

Nine ~ Karma (Cokelat)
* Slowly coming out of his shell
* Confident
* I enjoyed his performance

Esther ~ Won't Go Home Without You (Maroon 5) Immunity Award winner. Watch the video here!
* She's definitely an entertainer
* I enjoyed watching her 2nd performance at the end of the show where the other contestants joined her on stage
* She should sing more upbeat songs

So, who was your favorite for that night? I've no issues with Anith being eliminated. I read from forums she has an attitude problem, I never watched the diaries so I don't really know the story. Oh well, tonight is AF7 second concert. Looking forward to watching Rubisa's performance cos she's gonna sing Stacy's new song ~ Gagap. Don't worry, I won't be doing any reviews for AF7 biggrin

Nessa said...

Just ~ Just 8 contestants left. Sinang sikit buat review. Watch the Youtube videos. Inda payah watch the repeats... teda iklan :D

mat dingo said...

I'm not really a fan of Esther but I must admit, she did good and so did Amelia ... And they did pick the right girl to get rid .......hehehehehee

Nessa said...

Mat Dingo ~ Yeah, she changed the whole melody. That song originally was a slow song. She made it sound catchy!

It was time for Anith to go. No progress... except the hairstyle! :D

based on the recent competition, i think i will vote for amylea then esther. Tomok is not bad though - beginning to look more a STAR. However, I do agreed that SIMON is too plain although he does have a talented voice. i hope that Fify will be eliminated next week - dun like her red shoessssssssss................

Nessa said...

Anonymous ~ Hi Anon! Welcome to Mumblings :)

I remain just a fan of OIAM. No longer voting for anyone :) I think Top 4 will be Amylea, Tomok, Esther & Aweera (I hope).

Jean Chia aka Ms.Yummy~licious said...

yay!! i love tomok, nessa! hope he wins! :)

Nessa said...

Jean ~ Hehe... Tomok won over your heart ya. I was disappointed with him last Friday, not the kind of song I expected from him. But I'm sure he'll do well after this :)

Anny said...

woit! i like i like

Anny said...

bila u change ur header pic.. hehhehee.. now baru i nampak... doggie still there! i like it!

Anny said...

i liked Esther's presentation... she has star quality.. this is the 2nd time i watch OIAM.. haha..but i do come by to read ur reviews.. save me the time to watch it myself.. hehe

Anny said...

simon sure needs a complete makeover on packaging.. he has the height.. the voice.. but too simple to be a star.. somebody do something.. else he gonna go

Kengkaru Kong said...

wah....dah ada OIAM3? i never knew with. Yalah, since I dont have any access to Malaysian TV. mmm... I hope the products would be better this year.

Nessa said...

Anny ~ Thanks Anny :) I like it too! Hehe

I just changed last nite. Your picture tag sort of gave me an idea ;)

If I can't have a real dog, (I'm envious you have the companies of PP and Dom) then I'll put one on my header! LOL

Nessa said...

Kengkaru Kong ~ Lama suda dia start tu. Bah, pi tingu di YouTube, sama juga tu... OK lagi sbb teda iklan :D

Iya, harap2 la. Last year's winner (Ayu) pun senyap seja... album pun blum ada lagi. Kesian...

Nessa said...

Anny ~ Thanks for reading my simple reviews The show is beginning to get hotter as we get to the final 2. I hope none of my favorites get eliminated.

Simon's lacking star appeal. Too bad cos he does have a nice voice.

Anny said...

U can have a dog cos have kids.. kids and dogs... they make a great combination :)
but if u dun have much time, dun get a shitzu... cos they need a lotta grooming.. hahaha
Ur doggie on ur header looks like a Jack Russell :) abundance of energy

Anny said...

reading ur reviews are like watching the show itself :) u shud write reviews for OIAM officially ;)

Nessa said...

Anny ~ It's not really conducive to have a dog at home. The space constraints and I doubt my neighbors would approve.

I would love to get one for my home back in my kampung. It can run freely instead of being caged or being indoor most of the time. My dad had one last time, but it was a kampung dog. Really no maintenance dog... hehe

Anny said...

YEa.. no maintenance.. and they can frolic in the rain too.. and smell like a dog.. tats what a dog's life shud be :D

Nessa said...

Anny ~ It's just my personal review... based on what I saw and heard :) I don't think I'm qualified enough to write for OIAM3 :)

Nessa said...

Anny ~ Hey, you're online... hehe!

Oh, dat reminds me of my childhood... playing in the rain, I don think I smelled like a dog though :P

Mama Mia said...

yey Esther won d Immunity again. I agree wt the elimination. Simon? like the voice tp his performance is well, too plain & predictable.

Hmm, i think i lost my interest in AF7 la Nessa, boring pulak sia rasa, tida tau la kanapa. :)

Nessa said...

Mama Mia ~ Iya ba, terror si Esther menari tu hari :D She definitely had fun and I enjoyed seeing her perform... boring ba balik2 nyanyi lagu slow kan.

I agree, Simon kalau kasi 'macho' kan image dia, pakai baju yang smart, I'm sure ramai yang minat. Ni macam penyanyi tepi jalan seja.

Sia masih setia tingu AF7 tapi inda la sampai demam macam taim AF2 dulu. That was the best AF in my opinion.

Memang boring... sbb sia inda suka AC. Kalau ada Ab mungkin excited sikit la... hehe

Deana E said...

i always love easter...she was my wedding singer and she look so humble there but she gained weight so much that i almost didn't recognise her ba..

Nessa said...

Deana ~ Lucky you had the opportunity to have her sing at your wedding :D I think she will do well in the competition.

Yeah, she does look 'round' and her helmet-look hairstyle doesn't help. She needs to lose weight. In showbiz, you have to look good and sound good to succeed cos banyak competition :)

Anny said...

err... sometimes i think i will smell like a dog eventually.. or become a dog finally.. hhahahahaa.. slowly.. i am crossing over.. *LOL*

now parents dun allow kids to play in the rain anymore... it is so much fun.. to spin & dance in the rain.. :)

Nessa said...

Anny ~ Aiyah, why you nak cross over? Nanti kenot chat with you la... haha

That's true. I'd go ballistic if I ever see my kids play in the rain... KL punya rain so bahaya... with lightning and thunder!!

Anny said...

hahahaha.. crossing over.. cos doggies have more fun ;)

i dun have a kid yet.. so i might go ballistic too if my kids get sick after a dance in the rain.. haha.. mebbe the rain now is different kot.. lebih banyak asid.. :o

Nessa said...

Anny ~ Woof! Woof! Woof! LOL!

Polluted to da max! :*(

ken-cheong to comment right after watching the final 6. My guess is rite - Fify is out. I predict next will be SIMON. I think Esther and Tomok do well this week. What say u ?

Nessa said...

Anonymous ~ Hi there! Welcome to Mumblings and thanks for leaving your comment :)

Yeah, I think Simon's time is up. He has been stagnant, I haven't seen much progress from him compared to Nine.

Tomok did great tonite, I am so happy after last week's boring performance. Esther was just OK for me, I'm not blown away with her performance.
