Honestly, i’ve been waiting my entire life to watch these guys perform. Stayin in Kuching listenin to the voices of shawn, nathan, micheal and of course Wanya in the radio, just fascinates u. These songs just brings back to the good old days when we were in high school. Dreamin bout sum girl at school across the road….in my case…well….ahakZ~!!! I remember this one time when we were listenin to BoyzIImen’s In the still of the night, or was it Yesterday..?Jarl said: Kacak owh sora sidak tok, kelak ku mok Amen belagu, kakya aku rap. |t was a slow harmonic, RnB vocals rhyming through the speakers of our car. Like damn man.

Like ere they are, my first ever concert and it’s BoyzIIMen live in Genting. Had to buy cheap tix coz not enough cash, so our seats were way behind. (Rugi meh, if I knew the show would be that great, I would’ve bought atleast the rm200 tix). Anywayz, listenin to the songs of On Bended Knees, Water Runs Dry, A song for Mama and 4 Seasons of loneliness just brings u back way into time. How bout listenin to em live rite in front of you, in my case, way in front. The performance was magnificent. Call me gay or what ever shit I don’t give a damn man. Bur I really salute these bros. They don’t have the looks to win a girls heart, but words. Unless ur David Beckham who has the looks of an angel with a ducks voice….kinda, sorry ah Dave. Or even any rock band, like say Muse, Metallica, or Aerosmith. It’s not like I don’t listen to em but seriously, u take and smash em guitars and drums, their nothing but handicapped musicians. But these guys, u should listen to their version of the Beatle’s Yesterday, u’ll know what I mean. With their voice and their songs and lyrics, they’ll just drift u away from reality man!

That night, shawn wasn’t really performin well I guess, especially when he did 4 seasons. I guess he just couldn’t get his voice out. But the big screen on the left and right showed sumthin else,….tears comin out of shawns eyes. Maybe that’s why he couldn’t sing well. As written in our local tabloid KOSMO! Shawn just couldn’t believe it himself that there were still fans in Malaysia who still adores and supports them even after 15 years. I almost cried myself when Nathan said, “ I want you all to pick up ur phone, and call ur mom, and tell er u love er”. Somethin like dat, I knew it was gonna be song for mama after dat. Another sweet memory of BoyzIImen was back in high school when we had to perform or sing for our physics class, due to the study of sound, interference and shit. Amen came up the idea of singin End of The Road and I said, “ Lagu apa ya?” never know dat song before. Amen coached us each and every pitch (pretty good at it, he’s doin some album production now, should check it out ey, Amen let me know when the album’s comin out aight). So there we were, as far as I can remember there was me, jarl, wan, amen, chiqo and iqbal….was there shah? Sapa gik owh? Faiz was wit da other group…Alan la nak! We should have won dat day, but we got second place. Those were the days. I could’ve felt tears comin down my eyes as they performed End of The Road as the second song before their exit. Can’t wait for Remedy (latest album) to come out ere. Couldn’t find in in Torrent either ( weih, no piracy! ) It’s only launched in Japan, so u can find it dere. Too bad Micheal had to leave BoyzIIMen due to his masalah kesihatan…tedah aih! There was this part of end of the road where the music would stop and all 4 would sing in harmony, well this part they let the crowd sang it, dats a tribute to u mike…….im gonna be waitin ere fow u guys to return, and I sure am gonna get those expansive tix. Ahakz~!! Remember, these guys aint boy bands, they’re called vocal group. There’s a big difference aight, they aint no Justin timberlake dancing or sum backstreet shit! They’re BoyzIIMen.
