"i'm lovin it, again..."

Because of the AD i spotted on the buses of Taipei, last nite I was up Googling Anthony Neely once more... and found these few TV adverts he has been doing...LOL, I gotta get cable - am missing out... Hahahahahahaha...

new year, new computer blues...

Okay, most of you that know me well enough knows am dependant on the INTERNET not just for Blogging or keeping in touch with family and friends - but also for work... Nowadays, who isn't right??? So you know how frustrating it is when you are without Internet Connection at your disposal...

and it was just that this morning when I woke up.... for the life of me, just could not connect.... tried all the things we normally do when we lose connections... check the ADSL Box, the router, the connecting lines, etc.... check the computer setting.... all was fine... then I called through our Net Provider and was on the phone with them for almost an hour... of course, she asked me to do exactly all the things I already did earlier this morning...LOL.... after going through the process again and again, still nothing.... WAAAAH!!! So a rep will have to come and check things out - as we are both at our wits end - with no solution whatsoever....

Now am at the library, using their WIFI NET CONNECTION..... am able to so I know it is not my computer... Thank God!!!

AM really FRUSTRATED right now... just HATE it when I do not have NET CONNECTION!!! I know I already stated that, just had to get it out again... hahahahaha

This was the ONLY thing that made me SMILE today... spotted on the bus this afternoon on my way to the library.... ANTHONY NEELY for McDonalds....

"NIGHTMARES"

Loving Anthony Neely's Newest MV from his debut album.... love the styling and designs of it all.... the GOTH feel to it.... and just about all the graphics... take a look...

missed opportunity...

am so sad, just learned that Anthony Neely will be one of the stars giving a concert for the Holidays in Taiwan.... am sad as I will be totally missing him singing live... as always, I will be in Manila for the Holidays....

Since the release of the album, he has been gaining more popularity.. appearing in Talk Shows, Music Shows, and of course magazine, such as this newest ESQUIRE cover story.... he has also been making the rounds appearing live at various Malls and venues to promote his CD, "Lesson One"... and soon the much talked about, Holiday Concert....

would really love to see and hear him sing "The Blower's Daughter" live - from the movie, Closer... his version on the CD is quite emotional....

so for now I will just keep playing this You Tube - from one of his appearances late last year in One Million Star:

And a COUPLE OF PHOTOS from the CURRENT ISSUE of MEN's UNO magazine:

"Lesson One": Anthony Lee

Just recently, after seeing his photos on taxis and Billboards hawking something for a Phone company, it got me wondering when his CD is coming out.... Actually, i have been waiting for the CD to come out ever since I have seen him sing and get discovered in the Popular Taiwan singing show, 1 Million Star... and of course, ever since I ran into him at IKEA back in November of 2009 - where I got to talk with him and even take a photo with him.

Lo, and Behold, it IS out!!! Anthony Neely's first CD, Lesson One - with a couple of Music Videos to boot!!! It came out middle of November while I was away - reason why i did not even noticed all the hoopla.... and not having a TV at home (by choice) - i do not get updated with new music videos - but his videos have been popular - I have been told...

Anthony Lee looks and sounds in top form with this CD... he has lost a few KGS from the time I ran into him... looking even more fit... and his voice even more refined.... one thing did not change, much to my delight - his Lovely Smile... can TRULY BRIGHTEN UP ANY ROOM.... Makes him a Total Hunk to me.....

Do check out his 2 Brand New MVs - an English song and another a Chinese song.

"Sorry That I Loved You"

and the Chinese POP Ballad:

what a way to end my week!!!

my otherwise, ordinary, hum drum, rainy SUNDAY turned out to be a GREAT DAY when at IKEA, I happen upon Anthony Neely, newest IDOL am gushing over... of course, I had to say HELLO and take a photo - how could I not....

He was nice and very friendly.... and even asked his friend to take our photo... TOO COOL!!! Chatted a bit and found out that he should be coming out with a CD soon...

can't take my eyes... off of him... my ears, too!

so this past weekend I was reminded what I miss most in Taiwan television -- watching One Million Star (Taiwan's American Idol)... i miss seeing some really good, and some, not so good but kinda' funny performances form the local talent... plus I get to practice my Mandarin singing prowess.... hahahahahaha....

I say I miss it as for the last couple of years, we have made a conscious effort to not watch television so much... to not get caught up in any shows religiously that we cannot do anything or go anywhere for fear of missing a single episode... in pother words, we try to avoid being COUCH POTATOES in this household... LOLs.... so, besides an occasional DVD showing, we really do not get to watch TV much...

Anyway, last Friday Lyn & Shaun had a little SHABU SHABU nite for a few friends and us in their new home... so we were there for a good couple of hours and the TV was on... and it just so happened that my FAVE show, One Million Star was on... boy was I hooked, once more... why? because of this guy, Anthony Lee Neely(SP?)... not only does he have a rich, manly voice when singing either English or Chinese (so pure and such control) -he is also blessed with the looks, the cuteness to go with the voice.... take a listen of his version of The Blower's Daughter from the movie, CLOSER - even without looking at him... you will get butterflies in your tummy, GUARANTEED!!!
...and this is him singing a FAVE Chinese song of mine: Wo ZHENDE HAO XIANG NII:
