of singers and songwriters

my boyfriend and i were at kl urbanscapes the other day and we were watching the acoustic liveshow of mia palencia(she's a local artiste fyi) and we were planning to leave right after. Then the presentor got on stage and was ranting about the next artiste, yuna...whom he described as very talented and when he first heard her, he almost cried. curious to see whom this uber talented girl was, we stayed. yuna, got up on the stage with her guitar, clad in a tudung(head dress) and tee and what not, took just one minute to introduce herself and started playing right after. once the first line of the first song she was playing was sung, my boyfriend and i were mesmerised by her voice. it had this calm to it and this raspiness....and it was...amazing. we sat throughout her entire 5 songs(and additional 1 as the crowd asked fr an encore). she's somewhat like a malaysian corrine bailey rae crossed with meiko, with an edge. it's nice to see that the malaysian music scene has evolved and i'm very happy that theres an abundace of talent in today's young malaysian artists.
