I find it quite ok.....sounded very retro, like songs from the 40s.  But the emulation of the trumpet notes, that is not necessary. 

Maybe I old school...but I can understand why the younger audience will find it hard to appreciate.

 

Edmw folks complaining about her pupupu...

@Heartlander U mistaken... i am just surprised that people still watches mediacorp shows and are genuinely interested in their awards cos there are so many options available . Even my mum stopped watching these and started on korean stuffs. Folks my age group dont even bother tuning into TV stations anymore actually. Just my 2 cents. Peace. 

No worries. Posting here does not mean we are watching the dramas, not that there is anything wrong with that in the first place. 

I still have fond memories of tuning in to these weekly comedy nights when much younger especially the 梁婆婆 segments really hilarious. I even have had few minutes of fame taking part in a game show whereby the 4 participants have to stand in a row, put on headphones, and try to guess and repeat the phrase down the line. Managed to win a few hundred dollars haha.

I just wana say, if locals dont support local productions, who will?

I still watch Mediacorp Ch5, Ch8 and CNA.

Fully agreed. 

Some shows are really not bad, give them a chance. The current 9pm show is quite good.

yes, quite likely Best Actress for next Star Awards. she did not over-act her medical condition. some actresses tend to over-act when they have to show special needs or medical conditions. 

maybe Best Actor for James Seah too ?

It's definitely subpar and doesn't follow the feel of the original song.
Haha the "trumpet" and the 2nd chorus was bit wtf.

But no need to criticise too much also lah.

Think if Joanna Dong read this thread, she will be lagi depressed. 🤣

Went through her song. Good. Nothing wrong. Nothing cringe worthy.

Just a different interpretation of the original version. Both original and this version are ok.

haha original is signficantly better than this leh. 

And that's being kind. Nothing against artistic interpretation. But the lyrics, tune and mood of the song is contrary to her interpretation.

That's why it's so jarring. If it's not so jarring, not so many people will be voicing out liddat.
