Pinoy Pop Superstar: LISTEN--Kristel vs Charmaine



Charmaine Piamonte

_________________________________________________________________


Kristel Astor


I chose vids when they were both singing the same song: Listen--by Beyonce. Ok na song to to compare them, kasi medyo mataas, kaya may birit factor, tsaka me showmanship factor na din. And I just would like to say that I took this vids myself. I didn't just get them from some random clip sa YouTube. Kaya I don't want any crap from people na I chose vids na pangit kumanta ang isa and na I am biased.

Lets just go through some of the technicals: Yung vid ni Charmaine was taken sa Inno Bar sa me Mother Ignacia(?). This was during yung mga sets ng friend ko na si Chamyto and Mavey. This was a Tuesday ata. They just invited Charmaine up to JAM with them and she happily obliged. Yung ke Kristel naman was taken sa Ipanema Bar, Eastwood City. Set naman ito nila Charmaine and Michael(PPS din), and they invited Kristel to jam with them onstage. And may I just add na nung kumanta nga din pala si Charmaine ng Listen sa INNO, nandun din si Kristel. Hmm.. chismax...Yun ang circumstances ng mga pagkanta nila.

Here goes. sa aking mga naririnig, meron daw talgang namamagitang rivalry between them (na they don't even know?) Hindi ko din maisip bakit kailangan nilang kantahin yung pieces ng isa't isa. Kasi, malamang alam na nila yung mga standard pieces nila, and they are after all from the same TV station. Pero when I see them you can really feel na may tension sa kanilang dalawa, to the point na parang naiilang na sila sa isa't isa. Eto ay opinion ko lang naman. If you ask me: In a nutshell, I like CHARMAINE's version of listen better. Iba yung hagod niya, tsaka, pag kumakanta si Charmaine, hindi niya pinapababaan yung key and from expert opinion(somebody who studied music), sinabi sa kin na binabaan daw yung key ni Kristel sa vid na ito. Iba magperform si Charmaine, may puso(pun intended), and pag kumakanta siya I really get goosebumps.

Brrrrr...
