Have you seen the latest Saving Gaia music video? If you have not, then don't bother looking up for it on Youtube. That's because I have embedded the clip in this post! No, that's not the reason and perhaps not the main reason why you shouldn't waste time checking it out. The main reason is it still sounds like crap after Earth orbited once around the sun. Whatever, you will still play the video anyway. Don't say you weren't warned.
Anyway, after failing terribly with a bunch of school kids in 2012, the organizers seemed to have grown wiser after a year by inviting the stars of Ah Boys To Men to feature in this year's song. There are three things which we can conclude from the decision of hiring those young guys.
One. The producers do not have a big budget. Going for youth instead of established artists is economically sensible. Two. The producers are smart to utilize them since their popularity are still high. Three. The intended audience are females. Do the producers think that females are less likely to save the earth? If not, why not get Auntie Lucy? Oh wait, she's a guy. So embarrassing.
The lyrics are pretty much the same while the tone is still as monotonous as ever. The presence of the onscreen soldiers make the song more listenable by 0.3 of a percentage point. The scene at 0:40 was laughable enough to be passed off as a failed attempt at trying to show what going green is all about. Noah Yap would never look like someone who drives that kind of car.
I think somebody should create a song called "Save Our Ears". The chorus goes like this. "Save my ears, for the future, save my ears, for the children, save my ears, for humanity, save my ears, today!"
