The VMAs ’09

·

I don’t think anyone has not heard of what happened at the MTV Movie awards last Sunday.
So let me get right through it.

I was going to post this yesterday, but I had my wisdom tooth pulled out.
I was hurting and shoving my mouth with ice cream at the same time.
I was a little busy.

New Song Added – Make It Real.

· 9 Comments ·

Now,
with special guest,
my good friend, Jojo Ellis on vocals.

This has been a project long overdue.
We started this a long time ago, and it just got completed quite recently.

It’s not easy cooking your music,
when the main ingredient is on the other side of the country.
And now I am so excited it finally saw the light of day in here.

I have always admired Jojo’s singing.
Her amazing melody and her effortless tone.

I have begged her to provide the voice to one of my music interpretations.
And when she finally gave in, I was happier than a pig in mud!

So here’s an old 80’s tune.
And I hope we get to do (one more) a couple more, someday soon.

Music by – The Jets
Voice by – Jojo Ellis
All instruments and percussion arrangement – Ty Martell

*Thanks to Maita and her Mac for mixing Jojo’s voice to my music.

Atlanta meet up / New Song Added

· 7 Comments ·

Me and my Grade school friends met up in Atlanta, Georgia
last Labor day weekend.

And had a great time.

I played this song, in tribute to how wonderful these people are.
Them and their families.

Growing Up
By Gary Valenciano

Piano and voice by – Ty Martell

Thanks Abbie, Jay and Emma.
Thanks Maita.
Thanks Jojo and David.
and Thanks Myra, Chris and Jake.

You know,
I’ve looked at our old pictures,
and it made me wonder how things have turned out for everyone.

Sometimes, I can’t help but notice
how everyone’s life turned out as they are.

I never expected my life to be like this.

Nothing is as how you wanted them to be,
but still you make do with what you got.
Spending your time trying to fix your broken dreams.

Just like when I was at that age,
I wanted to be a famous Rock Star.
Rich beyond my dreams,
and with people bowing to my greatness.

That didn’t happen.
Not even remotely close.

Except for the famous part.

I am famous!
But only in Japan.

I am “big” there.

** Happy Birthday to Maita (13), Myra (22) and Emma (24).

Hurry, because I am making them private soon.

Friday Five Questions – Movies

· 1 Comment ·

Aaaaanndddddd… Action!

1. What’s your favorite line from a movie, and why?
–“Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my Father. Prepare to die!”
Can’t you just feel the anger on that line?
After years and years of keeping the anguish and hurt inside,
it’s finally coming out.
It’s beautiful.

2. Who’s your favorite villain from a movie, and why?
–“General Zod, Ursa and Non.”
The three Kryptonian villains from Superman 2.
All three have Superman’s power and strength. How cool was that?
Unlike in Superman 3. Where he fought a (gasp!) “Computer.”

3. Name one movie everyone else loves that you hate.
–“Steel Magnolias.”
Not only because I am a guy and I don’t like chick flicks,
but also because I can’t stand the thought of Julia Roberts dying.
I like her. She makes me feel funny.

4. Name one movie everyone else hates that you love.
–“Showgirls.”
Especially if you put it on mute.

5. What’s your favorite Pixar film, and why?
–“The Incredibles.”
There is something about Elastigirl that intrigues me.
Maybe it’s her way of managing being a wife, a mother and a superhero.
Or maybe it’s her ability of being able to stretch
and be flexible to do certain shapes and forms.

Either way, it proves that I am a pervert freak.

Aaaannndd Cut!

Slushies!

· 3 Comments ·

About a week ago,
I earned me some extra cash
for fixing this guy’s computer.

Not that much really,
but it’s a couple of bucks
I didn’t have before.

So anyway,
I decided on the drive home,
that’ I’ll stop by the drive-thru,
and surprise Tracy with a slushie drink.
A large one.
Coz I am cool like that.

She loves them slushies!
Makes her happy as a kid in a candy store.

Well, plus even though I am as useful as a bag of rocks inside the house,
I would like to surprise her from time to time.

You know, sucking up to your wife is not a bad thing.
It will come in handy sooner or later.
Hopefully sooner.

Anyways.
After I got her the slushie drink,
to my dismay,
I was stuck right in the midst of 5 major intersections,
in rush hour traffic,
under a scorching 100 degree Florida heat.

So there I was,
I’m about 2 jumps ahead of a fit,
holding the slushie drink in front of the blasting airconditioner,
trying to keep it from melting.

By the time I reached the last intersection,
towards the boulevard where we live,
I tried to be smart and took a different route.

Construction Ahead!

These two words on a certain sign
made me want to throw the hot
liquid cup of slushie drink right in front of me.
Which is a good thing I didn’t,
because the windshield would have stopped it
and it’ll make a big mess in the car.

No matter.
It’ll all be worth it when I hand Tracy her surprise.
Hoping she wouldn’t mind if I give her
one melted slushie drink.
She can put it in the fridge and drink it later anyways.

As I walked in the house,
I see a note by the door.
It says.

Honey,
Tyler and I went out to get some slushies.
Be back later.
Love ya.
Tracy
