Live Performances 2023

Back in July I did a round-up of posts on the blog featuring live music performances. You can see that here: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2023/07/live-performances-round-up-2022-2023.html

Today I'm featuring a few new live performances, by Denise Julia, Gen Neo and Tyla. :)


Denise Julia- bum 2 me |Rooftop Live from Manila

First up is Filipina singer Denise Julia. In June she sang her latest single bum 2 me (written in lower case) on a rooftop in the Philippines. It was her first time performing the song (released in April) in her hometown of Manila.

The performance is part of a series called Rooftop Live, produced by Unbound Entertainment. It showcases artists around the world. This is Episode 12.

bum 2 me is one of my current favourite songs and it's nice to see a live performance of it. As someone pointed out in the comments on YouTube, it seems to be the recorded version, so it's not strictly "live". But it's still good to see a performance. There are lovely shots of the Manila skyline. :)

Gen Neo- Losing Game Guitar Ver. (Official Live Performance

Last month Singaporean singer Gen Neo did a live performance of an alternative version of his latest single Losing Game, which came out in July. The original version (an English language R'n'B/pop track) is one of my current favourite songs. There are two alternative versions,  a guitar one and a piano one, and both sound good. 

This is a live performance of the guitar version. While I like the more upbeat style of the original Losing Game, this version has a gentler, mellow, "stripped back" vibe which is relaxing.

Tyla- Water (Live) | Vevo DSCR

Finally, here is a live performance by South African singer Tyla. She performed her new single Water (released in July) as part of Vevo's DSCVR series, which features new music. 

The song sounds good live, the background music gives it something extra. :) The video was uploaded in August.

25th Anniversary of Mariah Carey's Butterfly Album

My favourite singer Mariah Carey recently released a 25th anniversary edition of her 6th studio album Butterfly. The original album was released on 16th September 1997 and featured songs such as her hit single Honey, The Roof and My All. It was actually the first album I ever bought (on cassette tape, lol) and I still consider it one of my fave MC albums. :) Butterfly was the first album that Mariah had more control over and it is R'n'B, rather than the pop (and later pop/R'n'B) of her previous releases. It also has pop and hip hop influences. The expanded edition contain 8 extra tracks (the original standard edition has 12)- a duet version of Whenever You Call with Brian McKnight , a new take on The Roof featuring Brandy , live versions of Butterfly and My All, acapella versions of Fourth of July and Outside, an Amorphous Anniversary Club Mix of Butterfly (with DJ Amorphous ) and a remix of Honey (Another Taste of Honey David Morales Mix). I had previously heard the D...

New Unexpected

We're finally getting the new season of the reality TV series Unexpected in the UK! Season 3 was shown in the US last summer , and I wondered when we'd get it here. I don't have any online streaming services so thought I'd just watch clips on YouTube, lol. However it's now starting here in early March. Similar to the popular MTV franchise Teen Mom , Unexpected focuses on teen parents. The first series featured 3 couples expecting babies- Lily Bennett and her boyfriend James Kennedy who have daughter Aaliyah, now 2;  Mckayla Adkins and partner Caelan Morrison who have son Timothy, also known as Timmy (and now daughter Gracelynn , born in January 2019), and  Lexus Scheller and boyfriend Shayden Massey who have daughter Scarlett. Season 2 saw the departure of Lilly and the addition of 3 new pregnant girls and their partners- Laura Barron and her boyfriend (now husband) Tylor Stawmyor who have son Lucas (and have since had another baby , a 2nd son, who is named Leo), ...
