Idol Fever has gripped me! Thus, in my bid to satiate my craving for all things AMERICAN IDOL, I've decided to check out what all the fuss was about Jennifer Hudson (Ousted American Idol Contestant) winning the Golden Globe award for her performance in "Dreamgirls".

If her singing is anything to go by, she certainly deserves the award don't you think?

Soulful singing = WINNING FORMULA




Anyway! The little clip i posted smacks of a 1960s version of Destiny's Child no? Beyonce, or the character that Beyonce was playing was, the unquestionable lead. The other two were rather forgettable. Kinda like whats-her-name and the whats-her-name-that-came-to-Singapore of Destiny's Child fame.

Keeping the song in mind, i went out for dinner with lulu and bunny. AND! While searching for the ever-elusive "Pan's Labyrinth" soundtrack. Guess what i saw.

The "Dreamgirls" soundtrack! Why is it that a movie that has yet to show in Singapore has it's soundtrack out in the music stores and that a movie that is currently showing has it's soundtrack conspicuously absent from the display racks of the said music stores?

UNBELIEVABLE.

To quell my dissatisfaction, I bought the "Dreamgirls" soundtrack. A great risk considering that i only heard one song from the entire album and! also had no idea/clue what the movie was about besides the fact that critics are calling it a good movie.

So yeah. I'm now a proud owner of an impulse buy.

But! judging from the preliminary hearing test that I'm doing now, the music is REALLY GOOD! So! Logic dictates that the movie would be good too!

Wanna go watch when it comes out?
