P/s: One thing yang aku suke with kak yasmin works is, she always open her movie with Bismillah.
“She’s got a voice that sounds like something from the past, but you can’t put your finger on it,” says Jack Johnson of Zee Avi, the Malaysian YouTube discovery he signed to his label.The singer-songwriter flew in from Kuala Lumpur to work with Johnson’s band at its solar-powered studio in L.A. The album has a brunch-friendly acoustic swing vibe: “Just You and Me” features Avion ukulele, “First of the Gang to Die” is a chilled-out Morrissey cover, and on “Kantoi,” she sings in the Malay-English hybrid known as Manglish. “I do that one last when I perform at home,” she says.”It really gets the crowd going.”
You must be thinking why I’m so enthusiastically and eagerly introduce her name to you guys. One thing I just want to pop out from your mind is just how we behave, because I heard she have been “rejected” by a few recording Malaysia company who are looking person just like *tut* to record their album and never given any chances to those who are really talented like those indie singers out there. When other peoples praise on them, baru la kite terhegeh2 nak mengaku she is Malaysia citizen. How sakai is that..??? however sad but true, bagusla die x sign ape2 dokumen with recording company in Malaysia, because for sure she will go no where…Once MTV release her video or song berbondong lah reputz berebut nak cover her story… here just for samples, I post along videos from YouTube.
no christmas for me from zee avi
I cant promise I will heal you,
But if you want to I will try.
I sing the summer serenade
The past is done, we’ve been betrayed, its true.
Someone said the truth will out
I believe without a doubt, in you
You were there for summer dreamin’,
And you gave me what I need.
And I hope you’ll find your freedom,
For eternity, for eternity.
Yesterday when you were walking,
You talked about your Mom and Dad.
What they did had made you happy,
What they didnt made you sad.
We sat and watched the sun go down,
Picked a star before we lost the moon.
Youth is wasted on the young,
Before you know its come and gone too soon.
You were there for summer dreaming,
And you gave me what I need.
And I hope you’ll find your freedom,
For eternity, for eternity.
I sing the summer serenade,
The past is done, we’ve been betrayed, its true.
Youth is wasted on the young,
Before you know its come and gone, too soon.
You were there for summer dreamin’,
And you are a friend indeed.
And I hope you’ll find your freedom,
For eternity.
You were there for summer dreamin’,
And you are a friend indeed.
And I know you’ll find your freedom,
Eventually, for eternity, for eternity.”
