    criticism

    you know i really don't know why but i got rather bothered by a passing comment today... or rather i was pissed.

    apparently it was a comment about how the recent piano + drums cover i did on canon. well she said that my piano wasn't in beat with the music. i just nodded my head in mere agreement... but after sitting down and thinking about it, i was rather pissed. I mean like.......... i thought it was alright, and who was she to comment? could she have done better? does she even know what she's saying? yeah i know she's a pianist as well.... if i'm not wrong, the usual staunch pianists everywhere. prolly those who only play their abrsm pieces religiously. not that i'm much better or of a much higher skill, but really...... its quite irritating to hear comments from people who don't know what they're commenting about. comment fine, do it better than me. I'll respect you. In that case, the drums was following me, it was an IMPROVISATION. everything was played at the spur of the moment with no rehearsing beforehand, cut some slack. same goes for the singing... perhaps before you laugh, think if you could do better, even though i buay paiseh but dosen't mean that i sing to make a fool outta myself thanks. i agreed i could have done better for both, but i don't think it was worth the critisicm. This, is prolly due to the fact that i take great pride in my music creations.

    I'm not angry....... i'm just rather bothered. So easy to pass a simple criticism, so easy. if it was advice i would have taken it differently.

    this shall also be an advice to me.... ADVISE, NOT CRITICIZE.
