Best and Sickest KTV Session ever had.
It began with an innocent sms from Gabriel “ Tmr ktv u can?”
After several sms exchanges, we decided that couldn’t wait until tomorrow and headed down to Teo Heng.
(Teo Heng is a remote budget KTV outlet located in the Katong Shopping Centre and no, its not a lub-sub ktv)
The start of every KTV is always boring. Everyone needs time to warm up. Frankly speaking, we weren’t exactly in the best state for ktv and I was starting to regret a little. Gabriel had only recovered 70% from his 9 hr overnight KTV hangover (9-6am), Junwen was still sore from his union camp cheering, Junping was tired from scolding his disciple during tuition. And I was suffering from an acute stomachache due to watermelon & 28 weeks later (but that’s another story for another time).
I am not exactly sure where we started to hit the right notes. I suspect it was around the medley of 信乐团 songs, then we were on fire. We went crazy. We infected each other. And like the saying goes, the rest is history.
If it’s possible to get drunk from singing, we probably did. We were in an inebriated state from all that yelling, screaming and falsettos that we generously laced our songs with.
Gabriel was shouting ecstatically that he managed to do his highest ‘Oh’ note (ever attempted) singing 沉默玩具. A truly Eureka! moment.
Junping was delivering his MC Hotdog song with his slick rapping skills. I still think he’s the best rapper I have seen in my KTV sessions. Lol.
And Junwen was doing some amazing harmonizing and hitting some really really high notes. (I wished my music vocabulary was more than these, haha)
We outperformed beyond our wildest expectations, song after song. If you ask me, I think Superwoman sounds bland on my iTunes now after hearing the one with the amount of variation we injected into it. Haha. Awesome.
We stripped songs and raped each stanza and line, doing our own 编曲 , playing with deliberate pauses, R&B, hiphop and rap versions, singer imitations/signature styles, head voices and godly whistle registers (not done by me, haha..i think jw and gab managed them comfortably in their fully unleashed form).
We were acting so smirk and contemptuous, deriding our poor neighbours who were singing (did-i-hear-张栋梁?) sappy love ballads and brushing away songs with remarks like “No kick!”. Then Junping decided to pose us a challenge.
I think we are ready lah. "杨陪安 我相信. "
The killer song, which no one ever attempts, unless you really want to sound and look really silly - hunched over, clutching your balls and struggling to fire off some impossible notes beyond your body. Junping managed to be on par with 杨陪安! but we only lasted for a while. Maybe the next time we will be able to clear the entire song.
We finished on a ‘high note’ with 曹格's 世界唯一的你 .
I wished we had it recorded and uploaded on youtube or something. Wad a pity.
This entry is probably going to sound like lots of hogwash and hot air but this has to be documented because to us, it was simply one of the best and sickest and most memorable KTV sessions that we‘d ever had. Sick_o!
