Some nice clips

Some nice screencaps of Marry me today mv. Really like the mv, has feel of romantic comedy. Thanks pk for noticing that I mispelt Olia so many times ^__^ sry abt that & yeah u r rite, its more fun than work. Not much news, think David had a autograph session in HK & he will be on Jade Solid Gold. Then he has to get back to TW for Karen Mok's concert. I dearly hoped he is not gonna sit on a sofa while Karen lapdance on him >"< or have Karen rip off his shirt. So vry tacky. I nvr really understood this side of Karen as to me she dun come across as vry sexy.

Someone posted news clip @ youtube of David as Disney ambassador to present gifts to underprvileged children so they could go to school well-equipped. During HK radio interview when he was praised for always being aware of where & how he should develop in his career, David replied that he had many friends who helped him in the past but now he is at the stage where he is not concerned abt sales, awards or criticism. He just do what he wants to do. I guess he is vry fortunate that he is able to choose the path of his career. Not many in the entertainment world are that fortunate. They still have to conform to market taste & if they dun, the critics will be twice as harsh on them.
I too felt he should not have made those comments abt the critics as, after all, they are doing their jobs. But I can also understand his frustration. Let me put it this way: say if JK Rowling said her nxt book will not be a children's book but one about her own feelings as a woman writer in today's fastpaced world. Then when the book came out, the critics complained that it is not as creative as Harry Potter, there are no outstanding characters, the story is dull as dishwater, JK Rowling has reached a bottleneck & is no longer as inventive. Ridiculous rite? Surely the job of a critic is to judge an artist's work based on what the artist hoped to achieve & the ideas the artist wanted to bring across. David has already said his new album is going to be softer & has NO social msgs. It is based on his feelings on love, marriage, romance & life. So criticise him on that not what album he should be doing. Besides what exactly were they expecting -- Black Tangerine 2, The Greater Leap or I Am Still OK? :P

Here's another nice little clip @ youtube of David in Solar Project, much too short but he does look good in the Solar tee.
