Protégé Nomer: Goodbye Everybody, I've Got To Go

In his rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody with Rachel Ann Go, Nomer sang "Goodbye everybody. I've got to go...." Quite truly, Nomer had to go because he's been eliminated from Protégé. A life of the show Inside Protégé, TV audience will miss him. While he's hot, GMA should not let the opportunity go. The network should cast Nomer immediately for Party Pilipinas.

The Curse of Goodbye Songs

In Bohemian Rhapsody, Nomer sang the line "Goodbye everybody. I've got to go." From the song Lately (by Stevie Wonder), Kenneth sang the line "cause its time could mean goodbye." As their thought projected, Nomer had to leave the competition while Kenneth, being in the bottom two, almost said goodbye as well.

I have followed American Idol since season 3. One thing I've noticed that every time a contestant sings a goodbye song, his idol journey ends. I don't know why is that. Maybe it's true that what you think is what you get.

Krizza and Aiza made a perfect duet

The best performance for tonight was Krizza and Aiza's polyphonic rendition of "Wind Beneath My Wings" and a song that I've heard for the first time. Rendered with a beautiful arrangement, the two sang two melodies in one song. If you're in a competition, a duet should be something like that of Aiza and Krizza's. Congratulations to both of them!

Jaya and Lovely's number, "Sino Ang Baliw" was a runner-up for me. It wasn't perfect, but the two did a good job. I don't like the song "Sino Ang Baliw" but Jaya and Lovely made it sound beautiful.

For the first time, Lirah with Janno did a number that matched her husky voice. A mash-up of Bamboo's "Hallelujah" and Sampaguita's "Nosi Balasi", their number was a good opener.

The rest of the Protégés did just okay.

Who will be next to be eliminated? Whoever sings a goodbye song is next.

Endless Love - A Filipino Adaptation of Autumn in My Heart

Courtesy pinoyhalo.com "Autumn in My Heart" is a Korean TV series. When GMA Network aired it on Philippine TV, it started a trend. Pinoys went gaga over Koreanovelas. GMA renamed the characters as Jenny, Johnny, and Andrew. The three Korean stars became popular in their character names rather than in their Korean screen names. GMA7 also gave it a new title - "Endless Love" - for the reason that there's no autumn in the Philippines. Today premieres once again Autumn in my Heart aka Endless Love but this time as a Filipino adaptation starring Marian Rivera, Dingdong Dantes, and Dennis Trillo. Three superstars in one show! It's surely a hit. If I were to rewrite some scenes in Autumn In My Heart In general, I enjoyed the pilot episode of Autumn In My Heart. I particularly like the scene where young Johnny and Jenny ride their bicycles on a long brick road fenced with bougainvilla bushes. I give praise to whoever found that place. The school location w

"Mahal Kita"

Here's another favorite song. "Mahal Kita", which means "I love you" was composed by Danny Tan. The original version was sung by Gerald Santos, Pinoy Pop Superstar grand champion of 2006. The female version was sung by Maricris Garcia, Pinoy Pop Superstar grand champion of 2007. The song is included in Gerald's first album "A Day on the Rainbow". The song is currently the love theme song of "Marimar", a Philippine remake of the Mexican tele-novela with the same title. In the Philippine version, Marian Rivera plays Marimar; Dingdong Dantes plays the the role of Sergio Santibanez. In Marimar, the female version is a response to the male version of the song. In dramatic scenes that focus on either Marimar's (Marian) or Sergio's (Dingdong) emotions, you'll either hear Gerald's or Maricris's version. "Marimar" is currently showing weeknights on GMA Channel 7. Here's Gerald's version of "Mahal Kita&q
