Farewell

Now that I've wrote a post about LMS, it is time to say good bye to all of you. I want to thank all of you for supporting my blog for the past 3 years when I was a fan of Libera. I finally got the chance to see Libera live in concert in Singapore last year. It was a memorable moment for me. I will always treasure it forever in my heart. 
I will also remember my Libera friends from overseas whom I've met such as Lauren (USA), Yuki and mummy-san (Japan), Hannah (Philippines), Phoebe (Philippines), Martin (Germany), Patrick (France), Enyu and Haru (S. Korea) and many others whom I didn't manage to meet. Thank you for being such good friends to me. I'm so happy to meet people like you. Even though I'm not a fan anymore, I hope we still keep in touch.

Good bye, everyone. And thank you again.

Loose Moose Show: Episode 3 Part 3

As I've said in my last post, this will be my last post for this blog before I said my good byes. Let's get on with the recaps about LMS part 3, shall we? :)

(How to con simple blokes...again)
Yep, it's the con man conning a random fella on the streets of London sketch again. I still remember this from Episode 1, where Liam got conned by Josh. This time, it's Josh conning Alex about Platform 9 3/4. Does that ring the bell to you? Yeah, you guessed it. It's a famous platform from Harry Potter movies and series, where you walk straight into a wall to the platform that is ready to take the students to Hogwarts^^.
Anyways, enough Harry Potter talks. Let's get back to Josh and Alex. Here we see Josh introducing 'Portal to Platform 9 3/4' to Alex. In my opinion, I felt that Alex is much more smarter than Liam in the first episode. I don't know why but it's just my opinion. Love the part where Josh pushed Alex and he hits the wall, fell down and Josh takes his wallet and walks away. LOL!

The next sketch is about Channel Scot. I wonder who did the voice of the anchor that sounds like a girl. Hee hee^^. We can see Liam walking up the hill. At the bottom it says "Prune. My Favorite Word - By Dennis McHaggis." I guess Dennis here (played by Liam) is going to talk about his favorite word, prune. Yeah, I know you love that word. Pardon the English, Liam, but your accent sounds funny. My guess is Irish accent or Scottish. 

After that sketch about prune, we'll move on to a short sketch with Josh and Sam. Love how Josh twirls around as he walks. He's all dressed up as a French baker. 

Next up, it's crazy Ben again stuck in the shed, saying some Ben words. And of course, he sings a little bit in this sketch. Man, will that guy ever come out from his precious shed? :/   

The last sketch is another news channel. This time is Channel 0 News. I was like "What? Channel 0? Is there such thing?" LOL! These Mooses know how to come up with something we haven't seen before :). We can see Josh, who plays George Finsbury, a reporter of Channel 0 News, pops out from the bushes, reporting about some news. I didn't quite get what he's reporting about. So, I'm not gonna explain any further.

Announcement

Hello everyone. I have some announcements to make. After I write the review of LMS episode 3 part 3, I won't be updating anything in this blog anymore. The reason is, I have decided to resign my position of a Libera fan. And yes, sad to say, I'm not a huge Libera fan anymore. But that doesn't mean I stop loving them. I will still check some updates from other blogs like Mini Angels, Yuki's blog, DearMadine and many more if I have the mood to. He he. 
I'm not sure when I will write the review but it should be done within this week or during days when I'm not busy with college work.

Loose Moose Show: Episode 3 Part 2

Hi. I'm back for another review of LMS Ep 3. Now it's on to part 2

The first clip is we see a BBC sports news reported by Sam L. As you can see, Liam, JB and Alex are training for the Olympics 1948. Let's see what sports they will be doing :) (this may make you laugh). And a warning to everyone, even athletes. These sports aren't what you thought it is. It's just for comedy, okay? 

1) Water Polo - put each polo sweets into a glass of water. Love how Alex dump the wrapper filled with the sweets remaining into the water in the end :).

2) Bowling - pass the bowls to one another. However, they made a mess and Sam congratulates Liam. (Me: Okay :/)

3) Long Jump - Um, basically, just jump very high? Lol!

4) 100m Butterfly - I can't explain this because I have no idea what Liam is doing over at the distance. He looks like spinning around with a long (net?) and screaming like a maniac. My guess is catching butterflies. Lol at JB screaming "It's bloody massive!!" at the beginning all covered with blood. 

5) Discus - This is one of my favorite sport of all (not the actual one, but what they are doing). The three mooses, oops, I mean athletes, are discussing about something ^^. They're more like arguing to me in I-don't-know-what language. I laugh a lot on this one until my eyes got tears. 

6) Basketball - put the ball inside the basket. Yes, I know many of you must be thinking of shooting the ball into the hoop. I thought the same too.

7) Rowing - row yourself according to your height. Lol at JB facing his back.

Now, on to the second clip. A horse looking person riding a bicycle around the park in London. I'm not going to explain this much because the sketch is quite short. I'm just curious who is wearing that horse mask. 
The third clip is Alex, who plays Johnny Cups, asking about if you always lose your biskits at the bottom of your drink and your hand gets stuck in the mug all the time. Not to worry! You can always used a pre-diped biskits. Simple put your biscuits in a plastic bag and pour your beverages inside, shake it and voila! Pre-diped biskits! :)
The fourth clip is crazy Ben again doing Ben stuff. I can't believe he's still stuck inside the shed. Ha ha! Ben, don't mind me saying this, but you made me drooling for Nando's now. 
The last clip is Josh as the DJ in da house, along with JB and Alex grooving along to the music! It feels like you're at the disco at night. Good job for being the DJ, Josh. Lol at the technical difficulties with the keyboard.

Part 3 will be up next. Stay tune........

Loose Moose Show Episode 3: Part 1

I know I'm suppose to write a review about Loose Moose episode 3. Part 1 and 2 are out already. But I've been very busy with studies lately. Yeah I know. College life is always like that. Anyways, I'll try my best to update this blog. But no promises it'll be on time. Okay. Enough talking about my delays and all. It's time for a review from Loose Moose episode 3, part 1.

At the beginning of the video, we see a short sketch of "Love You". Alex was running down the streets with a pile of junk in his arms. He looks like in a hurry or something. Then he bump into Jonathan (or JB for short) and his junk fell down. JB helped him pick up his junk and in the end, Alex said, "Love you." Lol. Reminds me of the first episode of Loose Moose. This time, there is no long awkward scene, for Alex quickly ran off after he said that. JB must have been thinking, "What the?" And on to the opening. Gee! The opening is still the same. Can't they change it a bit for future episodes?

Moving on to the next scene. The 5 mooses were sitting down on the couch. Liam was telling jokes, which the others didn't get it. In my opinion, I couldn't hear the joke properly. It's either Liam spoke too soft, my speakers aren't loud enough or these 5 boys are talking at the same time. However, Lexi of Mini Angels wrote the quotes down in her blog. I'll put them all down here. Thanks a million, Lexi :).  

Liam: And...then the elephant...lost his shoes! ehehe!
Sam: Elephants don't wear shoes.
Liam: The antelope ran off with the cheetah...
Sam: That's not even relatable...
Josh: Like the cat ran away with the spoon...

Back to the first scene, the guys heard a mysterious laughter. Alex went out to the window to check who is making that laughter. We can see a person wearing a mask (the same one which Josh wore in episode 2, if you didn't noticed), a white long shirt and a skirt walking down the road. Wait what? A skirt?? Okay -_-" I love Alex's expression on his face. Lol. The person happens to be the mystery guest, if you remember the trailer. Guess who is it :)? 
Yes, that's right. It's none other than Ben P!! I never knew he's the mystery guest. This weird person stumble upon the mooses door and when Sam opens the door, we found out that the weird person is gone. Standing by the door is Ben wearing glasses. O_o I know it's weird. One moment a freaky mask person walks to your doorstep then when you open the door, it was gone! 
So, Ben happily greets the 5 mooses, saying that he came for the filming. Ben's high pitch tone makes them like "Uh.....okay...." The mooses took Ben outside to their shed and lock him inside!! OMG! That's the most hilarious thing I've ever seen. 

Now it's scene 2. We see the three cousins sitting around the table, eating their dinner. JB is narrating the scene. Yes, the people are nice, the drink is nice and the food is nice. Everything is perfect. But when it comes to conversation like "What do you do?" for example and when you start talking, no one can understand what you were saying. Love the part where JB pops out from under the table and starts explaining this new gadget from Apul called the 'Demumbliser'. Simply move the Demumbliser to the person who is mumbling and it'll translates what the person is saying. I won't say much from this scene, since it's all about how to use the Demumbliser :). Just one question for Sam who speaks in a cool accent (which I don't know which accent he's using). How many phones you have there? 

The last scene. It's crazy Ben stuck in the shed. Here we see him saying loads of crazy stuff to the paper camera beside him. Poor dear. But I find him funny. 

The best part of all is that I get to see Inna's creation of her animation for Loose Moose ending credits ^_^. Will write about part 2 soon. See you all again. 

Loose Moose Show Ep 3 Trailer

Ladies and gentlemen, after a long hiatus, the quintet of Loose Moose is finally back to put on some show! Yep, that's right. The Loose Moose Show Episode 3. It's great to see them back again for a doze of comedies. Everyone must have been waiting for their next episode for months. Today, they have just released a trailer. I don't know when the release date for the real show will be out but just hold on, fellow mooses. Good news for everyone. There will be a special guest featuring on their show. Wanna know who is it?

Pics From Taiwan and S.Korea

Hello all. First of all, I will not post pictures/fancams from fans from the concert, both Taiwan and Korea, as there are too many to post. You can check out Lauren's blog. She has tons of pictures. Patrick and Yuki also post a few photos from all the concerts. Do check them out :). If you're copying them, be sure to credit their names. 
Secondly, Artemis Arts FB page have post some photos of Libera having lunch with the Taiwu Elementary School Folk Singers. I will not post all of the photos. You can go to their FB page to see more.
And lastly, Ny, Libera's guide/translator for their Korea tour, have posted some photos of Libera having lunch and a cake specially delivered to them. According to Inna, they're doing a project every time Libera comes to Korea. Remember the teddy bears and the other souvenirs from their Korea tour 2010? Plus, there's also a radio interview with Jude, Cassius, Kavana and Ben. Ny also have some videos but I'll post them later. Keep an eye for the update ;).

Please take credit to all the photos from each trip, as I do not own any of them. Thanks.

(Pics from Ny. Reminders again: pls credit her name)

Aww. The cake is soy cute XDXD!!! Love the little moose.

Oh yeah. Oppa Gangnam Style! Haha. Yeah, they were given each a pair of socks and chopsticks. I have to say Psy is famous among Libera members. Hopefully one day, the boys will meet the real singer.

The interview:-

Terrific Taiwan 1 & 2

I'm sure you guys know what always comes whenever Libera goes for a tour. Yep, that's right! Their blogs. Libera posted two blog about their trip to Taiwan. Sorry I forgot to post them earlier. In part 2, I agree with the writer. It's very rare that they're singing a song in Mandarin. And it's special to the Taiwanese fans. Yes, pronouncations can be a bit hard. But once you learn hard enough, you might get it right :). And not only that, if you listen to the song a lot more, you can sing it with good pronouncations. I guarantee it. This works for me when I tried to sing a few lines of a Chinese song. Apart from this, I heard amazing reviews from fans who went to their concerts there.

Click here for part 1 and here for part 2. 

Taiwan Tour Promo

Libera has just upload a video of their Taiwan tour promo. FYI, the boys are almost here :)! Excited? Sad to say, I cannot go this time due to busy schedules and I can't miss classes again. But overall, have fun for the people who are going. I had my experience. To the fans who are seeing them for the first time, it is your time now :)! And to the boys, I wished you good luck and have fun on your tour :). In the video, you can see a clip of the group singing 'The Moon Represent My Heart'. And Issac, Jude, Michael and Cassius talking about the song. I have to say that they did had a hard time learning the song. But with more practice, they managed to get it right. And yes, they are fluent of the song. Ha ha. Love the way you say it, Cassius. Learn more Mandarin if you want to communicate with your Taiwanese fans :).  

Ben and Cassius Greets Taiwanese Fans

The Taiwan concert is drawing near, you guys :). If you haven't booked your tickets yet, you can still do so. To lighten up the mood, Artemis Arts posted a video of Ben and Cassius greeting the Taiwanese fans. They spoke in two languages: English and Chinese. To the two boys, don't feel upset if your pronouncations are bad. I know it's hard to learn Chinese. But keep trying. You were doing a great job. If you guys can speak Korean well, I'm sure you can for Chinese. I bet all the fans will be excited to hear them speaking in their language. I wonder if they know how to speak Hokkien because in Taiwan, they also speak Hokkien. But to be honest, it's better you guys stick to Chinese, to avoid confusion :).

Song List for Spring Tour

 (c): Artemis Art FB page

Artemis Art have posted a song list for the spring tour. Song of Life still remains. How I remember Ralph's pure voice. He he. How Can I Keep From Singing is added back in the list. It's been a while since Libera sang that song. The rest of the songs I'm familiar with due to last year's spring tour :). Of course, there'll be two encores for the concert. One is The Moon Represents My Heart and Libera.

Sneak Peek of The Moon Represents My Heart

Sorry for the late update, guys. Here is the video about Libera singing The Moon Represents My Heart by Teresa Teng. It's just a preview only. And I'm amazed that their Chinese is superb. Not to mention the perfect pronouncation. I wonder if there will be an MV of this song. Thanks to Artemis Art for the video. Enjoy.

Libera's Ice Cream Photoshoot

This is one photoshoot I've never seen before. And that is Libera having an ice cream photoshoot. This reminds me of Big Bang doing a photoshoot of Baskin Robbins. He he! Anyways, they all look so cute in the pictures. You can see more here.
