Please don't stop the music.

I must say.

This is the first time HSM has made me laugh. Okay lah, is HSM 2. I don't know why but I thought some of the songs' lyrics were like, damn funny. As in. It was more like a conversation with a melody. Imagine if our normal daily conversations were sung out. We could all write HSM songs then! Lols.

Okay I guess it was fine then. Okay lah it was nice. But it gave me a little feeling of deja vu. Like in, perhaps, HSM? The plot was about the same, the songs all the same genre. Oh speaking of songs, all of them came in the same sequence as the HSM ones. Like "We're all in this together" in HSM is "One for all, all for one" in HSM 2. And "What I've been looking for" is now "The music in me". Seriously. And the latter songs were also sung by sharpay in a remix version in both shows. So it was like, about the same.

And I realise I prefer slower songs. It's like, the whole show was so upbeat that the sad scenes weren't very sad to me. But overall, it was enjoyable. Can't say I was very satisfied though. I wanted more! Like, more acting, more storyline. I realise the show has a word "musical" in it but that doesn't mean that the whole show has to be songs and nothing else right? I mean, look at shows like Hairspray, or Dreamgirls. They're musicals too but they have a nice storyline, unlike HSM 2.

Okay but after all I said, I will still buy the soundtrack! Haha. It's the songs! I like the songs lah. And I like to sing, no matter how horrible I sound, so yeah. That was so contradictory, like saying how the show wasn't up to my expectations but I will still buy the CD! Like, duh. I already wanted to buy it before the show even started anyways. Lols.

Okay very very short post from me here. But wanted to post to say what I felt about HSM 2. Bye!
