dear diary,
there once was a magazine who clearly hated me and my vision and basically made a review out of personal hatred by using my shameless album. and guess what? looks like i sustained longer than they have. their url no longer directs to anywhere, so i shall assume they’ve died a sufferably long and painful death. i thank my sister n friends who were there to keep me going… wooh!!
celebrate good times come on xx
year ends are hectic. ive not been busy w shows as i anticipated i wldve been but ive instead been caught up w setting up the boutique w my sister – which is going beyond our expectations thus far. although i must admit im missing the stage =[ hopefully im back out there in no time.
i was at the hitz awards, only to discover tht they actually had an award for malaysian english videos - too sexy wasnt even nominated. i was devastated, to say the least. but of course, im not fr the jakeman's fanclub. its all still clearly driven by men w only hannah tan being the only female nominee being mentioned. where r talents like jasemaine gan and izzy mohammad?
so muse is coming.. in feb? for real?
im certainly happy for pop shuvit , the 5 r actually in the running to b in Rolling Stone Magazine's top 25 myspace bands. Hw unreal is tht? im wishing them the best! you can also help trash the article w ur groupie shout outs on the rolling stone website.. www.rollingstone.com
i cant help but talk abt my next album... although its still very far fr being released. Ruben is working on the mixes, n things r looking good. 6 tracks at this point, and im still speaking to producers n musicians fr just abt anywhere who hv got the right chemistry to fit into this project. its gonna b a killer euro-electro party record - i promise u tht!
sigh. ive learnt so much fr releasing tht SHAMELESS cd - money just cldnt buy! ive suffered fr depression even, its crazy when u know too much. picking up the pieces... its better to fight than to sulk. let no mofo bring u down =p w all tht anger i cld prolly put out a gangster rap album or smthing. but im all abt showing some love baby. the world needs it.
ive got lotsa faith. smtimes maybe too much for my own gd. Here's hoping out loud... just like how bob sinclar puts it... WORLD, HOLD ON!
p/s: i hv just dicovered the gorgeousness of tht prison break guy. *yowza* id break into prison for him.
love. =]
I’d like to thank the black eyed peas for proving , once and for all, that we dont really need to put so much effort on the music to wow the crowd. my humps? seriously, how the hell did they come up w that thinking it’s even a song to begin with. but hey , it worked. What with the sleek video n all… mtv n radios seem to love playing the lack-of-motive track nonetheless. I’ve respected their efforts thus far, but this track has left me with something to reckon with.
the no-brainer lyrics that can be written on ur drunk trip back from the nearest bar, below! ;
What you gon’ do with all that junk?
All that junk inside your trunk?
I’ma get, get, get, get, you drunk,
Get you love drunk off my hump.
My hump, my hump, my hump, my hump, my hump,
My hump, my hump, my hump, my lovely little lumps. (Check it out)
I drive these brothers crazy,
I do it on the daily,
They treat me really nicely,
They buy me all these ice-ys.
Dolce & Gabbana,
Fendi and then Donna
Karan, they be sharin’
All their money got me wearin’
Fly gearrr but I ain’t askin,
They say they love my ass ‘n,
Seven Jeans, True Religion’s,
I say no, but they keep givin’
So I keep on takin’
And no I ain’t taken
We can keep on datin’
I keep on demonstrating.
My love, my love, my love, my love
You love my lady lumps,
My hump, my hump, my hump,
My humps they got u,
She’s got me spending.
(Oh) Spendin’ all your money on me and spending time on me.
She’s got me spendin’.
(Oh) Spendin’ all your money on me, on me, on me
I met a girl down at the disco.
She said hey, hey, hey yea let’s go.
I could be your baby, you can be my honey
Lets spend time not money.
I mix your milk wit my cocoa puff,
Milky, milky cocoa,
Mix your milk with my cocoa puff, milky, milky riiiiiiight.
They say I’m really sexy,
The boys they wanna sex me.
They always standing next to me,
Always dancing next to me,
Tryin’ a feel my hump, hump.
Lookin’ at my lump, lump.
U can look but you can’t touch it,
If u touch it I’ma start some drama,
You don’t want no drama,
No, no drama, no, no, no, no drama
So don’t pull on my hand boy,
You ain’t my man, boy,
I’m just tryn’a dance boy,
And move my hump.
Now that I’ve gotten THAT outta my system… I’ve got a good weekend coming ahead! The AYA Awards Night is happening this Sunday the 13th at Summit Hotel Subang Jaya and the winner of the Most Outstanding Youth of the Year Award will be announced > I’m one of em 3 finalists.. yay! Wish me luck (I’ll also be performing that night, if u’d like to grab a seat, it’s RM60, go here.
SHAMELESS is already on sale at CDBABY and at Tower Records.com . In Malaysia, it is now finally on Pan Global’s Music Canteen (also being played on their podcast, thanks to Simon from DJ@Work). Will soon be available for digital downloads on iTunes, Napster, Soundbuzz and etc too!
Before I go, please join me drool over my current obsession. hwah!
peace&Love, Miss Radcliffe. =]
and so FHM Magazine reviews my SHAMELESS CD. Here’s what writer Suffian has had to say;
“Newcomer Saer Ze does well with this cheeky album full of happy, radio-friendly gaga. From breaks to house, and even a little retro, Saer Ze pretty much bangs out music according to her moods, which, while artistically appealing, may influence you to question her sanity. Nevertheless, it’s a good first effort, a little absurd, but all the more interesting because you’re going to wonder about what she’s going to be up to next. (To listen to when you’re feeling shameless? Ha ha.)”
*** 3 stars!
Thank you FHM =]
–Taylor’s College – Cultural Beat (oct 15th) party was AWESOME! My sister and I managed to pull off a good 10-minute show, had a lot of fun doing it too. Looking forward to play at another college party soon!
wooh! even I cant handle her hotness. well she’s got a baby BOY now and Im turning even more green.
I miss byron, damn.
Oh yeah! My sister and I met up w norman fr KRU n were so STARSTRUCK we forgot to breathe, i swear. haha. and of course, my CD was in his bare hands.. like wow. *sigh*
Next in line, justin timberlake. Oh no no, make that JD – THE new INXS vocalist – hell, yeah! Wow, must be an awesome feeling. And btw, the Rockstar finalists were real natural-born Rockstars themselves; unlike some popstar shows where the popstars are more like flopstars-in-the-making. Heh, sorry but its TRUE.
**ANNOUNCEMENT** Shameless will be in Tower Records by next week, and the promotional campaign ‘Wall of the Shameless’ will begin scouting for the shameless and shooting you people down soon! so be afraid, be very, very afraid. hee.
I want to thank everybody who made it to the SHAMELESS LAUNCH last thursday, sept 8th at KL Jam Asia. It was good, I had fun, I hope everybody else did too. Worth the exhaustion, for sure ;]
Will be posting the photos up soon…
Special thanks to the crew : Naz, Syida, Goh, Najhan, Nelly, K, Farez and Aimi. My sis, Yasmeen-theosixninechic and of course KL Jam Asia’a Velan, Uncle and the crew (especially for allowing me to work up some graffiti on their huge guitar, and the flowers too!)
—> Family and friends: for your endless support as always. (even my grandma and baby cousin were there… damn!) Thanks for the great night! *mwax*

…
In my time of enjoyment, I was shocked by the news of my parents’ close friend who has left us at 12:30am Friday morning. My condolences to the family, he was an amazing musician and singer too and his presence will certainly be missed. May Allah be with him, Insyaallah.
*Superstar*
Long ago and oh so far away
I fell in love with you before the second show
Your guitar, it sounds so sweet and clear
But you’re not really here
It’s just the radio
Don’t you remember you told me you loved me baby
You said you’d be coming back this way again baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby, oh, baby, I love you I really do
Loneliness is a such a sad affair
And I can hardly wait to be with you again
What to say to make you come again
Come back to me again
And play your sad guitar
I’m looking forward to seeing you guys at the soft launch of ‘SHAMELESS’… do bring the positive vibe along w u. My CD is also in the waiting list to be in the Tower Records smtime soon, I’m hoping that goes well.
At a time when we’re happily enjoying life, there will always be people on the otherside of the wheel… so lets help out the victims of the Hurricane Katrina. Visit the UNICEF site and read on what you can do to help.
Well until then, have a good day! =]
My debut CD has been completed, and in my hands by August 12th and it really felt like I had just given birth. It was an awesome AWESOME feeling indeed. Working on distribution and all the ‘stuff’ people dont actually ‘see’ at the moment, and so far things are going really well. This previous weekend was a bit of a dream… I performed at One utama’s rainforest for a Coca Cola/EMI gig alongside Vince and V.E. and to add to that, Mr Anuar Zain actually BOUGHT my album… MY album!? I couldnt stop smiling. =]
Ive printed like 2000 flyers (photocopies la, no money yet) and having to fold every one of them is a bit of a pain in the *** but it’s got to be done! As long as the flyers are actually flying, it’s going well. Merdeka’s coming, a good time to keep em flying.
My soft launch is happening next thursday, sept 8th and I’m looking forward to celebrate the birth of my album with the media and the ppl who have been beside me since the very beginning.
Will see you there (in case I havent sent you the invitation please feel free to email me online@saerze.com)
out.
