Raffles Voices presents: "In Song We Unite", 5th February 2005, 7:30pm, Victoria Concert Hall

Originally I only wanted to say one thing about the concert:

If it is at all possible, RV is even worse now than the last time I heard them, at the end of 2003.

But I just had to add a few more:

- The only saving grace was that, when you are singing songs that are meant to sound horrible, you can't possibly make them sound any worse. In fact, it is totally possible to make them sound better.
- They adapted a song called "In Song We Unite" by adding lyrics relevant to Singapore. I'm sorry, but "Oh Singapore the beautiful, the Land of the Free" just doesn't cut it. Not even the government, in a glossy promotional campaign, would call Singapore "the Land of the Free"
- TBS tricked everyone into thinking that he was going to present an encore item, but it turned out to be an arrangement of the school song. So that's one more entry in the "Why TBS is Evil" list

Oh what the heck. Here are some more comments:
- TBS finally ditched his grey business suit. Yay for him. But he still uses suspenders
- RI boys nowadays are very funky: nowadays there are so many girlfriends in the audience. Either that or there were freak spikes in environmental chemical concentrations in the late 80s and early 90s

Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to listen to 'Masquerade' on loop for an hour to erase the horrible memories of last night.


Oh, and I think I saw Solitary Music, but didn't say hello. *waves*
