I bought the SINGAPORE EDITION of Marie Digby’s Album, Unfold. The last time I saw this in a CD Shop at Suntec City, they were selling it for S$19/- 

However, when I was at Jurong Point yesterday, I saw this Singapore Edition and it was selling for only S$11.90 so I asked the sales person what is the difference and was told that this album does not come with lyrics. I was like hey…doesn’t matter, I can easily download from the internet if i ever need it (not that I can sing ;)

All that I can say is….Lovely Album and Go get it!

Well…as you might think why buy the album when you can  easily download it from the Internet. Well i guess by downloading from the Internet, we will eventually kill the industry and people who spent time making such beautiful songs will ultimately find it worth doing anymore. So I think it is time to PIRACY and support these artest. CD prices now are affordable and reasonable…c’mon, give it a thought next time before you download those music.

5th Day of Christmas / 2008 Female Vocalist of the Year

My personal choice for 2008 Female Vocalist of the year is non other than Marie Digby. 

Marié Christina Digby (pronounced /mæɹi’eɪ ‘dɪgbi/ Ma-ree-AY Dig-Bee) (born April 16, 1983) is an American singer-songwriterguitarist and pianist. She is best known for her acoustic cover version of Rihanna’s No. 1 hit “Umbrella“, which attracted attention on YouTube in 2007. The song was subsequently played on the radio station STAR 98.7, was featured on the third season opening episode of the MTV show The Hills,[1] and peaked at #10 on the Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles chart. Marie performed the song on the late night talk show Last Call with Carson Daly on August 2, 2007.

Marie’s first official single, “Say It Again“, was released to radio stations on January 18, 2008. Her debut album, Unfold, was released on April 8, 2008.
