12 Suicidal Teens (2019 Japanese Film)

Image courtesy of asianwiki

Dear Entertainment Diary,

     I’m back, and this time I have watched a Japanese Film that is very worth watching for! It’s been so long that I cannot remember the last time a film so great had given me goosebumps. Guess what? This film gave it to me! It was so satisfying I even cried at the last part.

     This film gave so many chills and it really gave us such a good outlook in life. It is a film about teens who wanted to do a group suicide because of the problems/burdens they each carry inside. Burdens such as diseases/incurable sicknesses, being bullied, experiencing the loss of loved ones, being controlled or being hated by people surrounding you, and many more. Each character possessed uniqueness of their own and as the story progresses, they understand one another. They understood what it’s like to be alive, in spite if the challenges they are currently facing.

     We all know that depression is a very hard thing to carry on our lives. We cannot just throw it away just because we want to. We cannot just think positively all the time although it is the most common thing that people around us give as a piece of advice. It is easier to be said than done. We may never know what a person is feeling unless we are in that same situation, heck, we may never know if we will feel the same way as others. Will it be a lot more depressing, or a little less? 

     I am currently in the state where I’m depressed as f*ck. I overthink things. Well, Who knew, one of these days, a storm will go in my way and I am hoping that I will surpass it. Hopefully, that day would not come. People around me tend to think that I have no problems, financially or mentally. If only they knew what I am feeling inside but I can’t share it to anyone. I am being hated by some, which I think now is normal, but I don’t think I have to change anything about me.

     Back to the film, this film just gave me hope. Each character is very relatable and I can see myself in each one of them. I am so glad that Warner Bros. distributed/produced this movie as it was perfect in my eyes. The acting, the cinematography, the storyline, no loop holes. It is a great adaptation of a novel I have never read. It just gave me hope and and I am somehow gained some confidence that I may surpass everything at the right time.

     To the cast and staff of this wonderful film, Kudos to you. I actually thought this is going to be a horror/slasher film as I have read it’s plot that there is a murdered body found in the assembly room and they want to figure out who the murderer among them is as they open up to one another the reason they wanted to die, but I was wrong. I shouldn’t have judged it. 🧐🥺😜

     So again, I recommend you to watch this film as it will bring joy, hope, and love into your life, especially if you are experiencing depression right now, as I am. Let’s. Live. Long. No. Matter. What.  😀

Regards,

BEN

Attack On Titan - Live Action (2015 Japanese Film)

Image courtesy of wikipedia.org

Dear Entertainment Diary,

I know many of us are great fans of the hit anime Shingeki No Kyojin/ Attack on Titans. Well, I've watched it couple of years back and I've got to say it kicked ass even though it's not yet finished and let us hanging in the brink of desperation to know what comes next after Annie hid in her crystal shell like thingy. (read the manga, ok?)

In this case, Attack On Titan (live-Action) has its own definition. Meaning, it did not remain true to the manga/anime, but is kind of good in its own way,

Lots and lost of scenes and background stories were very crucially different vs the manga/anime but I've got to say, it's still watchable. It's still good since the action scenes and effects were kind of good (not that good,but still). The faces of the titans were still annoying just like in the anime. Jean is still annoying. Sasha still likes potatoes. Armin is not blonde anymore. Hans is still funny,

I'm just looking for some major characters like Levi, who, just to let you know, is my 2nd favorite character off the anime/manga! I mean, where the heck is he? And who the hell is Shikishima in the anime/manga? The movie is good, but as one of the many fans of the anime/manga, I'm still confused what happened to some characters and why the hell are there many new characters?

Again, it would be better if they stick to the storyline of the anime/manga but, the film doesn't stink because of that, It's still good. It's still watchable. It's still doesn't give us LEVI!!!

Basically, there is just one thing the anime and this movie have in common.

THEY BOTH DID NOT FINISH THE STORY AND LEFT US HANGING IN THE BRINK OF DESPERATION! This film is only the first part. The 2nd part will be released on September and I just can't wait to watch it now that Eren bacame a Titan. OOOPPPSSS, SPOILER ALERT.

It Follows (2015 US Film)

Image courtesy of impawards.com

Dear Entertainment Diary,

So last night, alone in my room, I've watched the film hailed as the Horror Movie of The Year (so far), It Follows, or should I call it "I'll transfer this curse to you so I can live a peaceful life but nahhhh",

Over all, I was impressed of the acting. I kind of like the story but the ending, not so much. I felt that it should not end like that. What happened to the FOLLOWer? Then I thought, I'll just wait for the sequel. I hope there is.

The film tells a story of a girl being followed by this ghost who can shape shift ever since she had sex with this lame ole guy with a fake name and fake address she met somewhere with the intention of transferring the curse to her, which is why this FOLLOWer started following her. Sounds complicated? No?

To make it more complicated, Jay, the protagonist, first transferred it to Greg, one of her friends, but he still did not believe everything she said about the FOLLOWer so he got killed instantly after it shape shifted into his mom.

She the transferred it to Paul, another friend, her first kiss, who also happened to kiss her little sister, at the end of the film. I don't know for what reason since she can still see it although it will not chase after her. SO it will chase her friend, so I guess he transferred it to some h*e and they ended up being a couple. YOU SEE? LET'S HAVE S*X.

The story is kind of interesting since the theme where you can transfer a curse thru sexual intercourse is kind of original to me. My interpretation of this film is to don't have sex if you don't the person, yet. It can prevent you on seeing ghosts! :)

Probably this film is telling us about STD.

One question in my mind is why does the FOLLOWer have to be nude and all? ;/

Go watch the film, it's worth watching!

The Theory of Everything (2014 Film)

There should be no boundaries to human endeavor. We are all different. However bad life may seem, there is always something you can do, and succeed at. While there's life, there is hope.

- Stephen Hawkings

Dear Entertainment Diary,

How should I start this post? Hmmm.

Everything has an end. Even a strong love that started fiery, it could end, because of so many unexpected circumstances rotating in our universe. Probably also, because of destiny. That is, if you believe in it.

So... even before Eddie Redmayne won an Oscar, I wanna watch this movie. Why? Nothing. I was just browsing in the internet that time and the title "The Theory of Everything" caught my attention although I did not read its plot nor any details about it.

For me, this is probably one of the best films ever made. The acting is superb, more especially, in Redmayne's part. He won't get an award if he did not play his part very well, and I am telling you, I still think that he has Motor Neurone Disease.

To tell you honestly, I thought it was a chik-flick film at first, but as we watched it, I found out that it is, in fact, a biographical film about the life, personal and romantic, and success of the main character, Stephen Hawkings. It is also about how her wife, Jane Wilde Hawkings, struggle while with him because of his neuron baseball-related disease. (BOO!)

While watching it, there are numerous endings of the film that formed in my mind, well, more of questions. Will Stephen die? Will Jane commit adultery and find a new love. Will she give up on loving her wheelchair dependent husband? Will their family break apart? Is Timothy really Stephen's son or is he Jonathan's? I thought only two years? Many questions but I finally got my answers at the end of the film.

It is a great film with so many moral values we can learn from and it can also give us hope especially if we are enduring something so powerful in our lives. We can learn that if we really want to, we can achieve it no matter what if we just believe in ourselves and never let our faith to God (or in Science) fade.

It is a must see film about love, compassion, family, and Science, and at the end of the movie, it just proves its main point. EVERYTHING HAS ITS BEGINNING AND ITS END. For me, That's the Theory of Everything. HAHAHAHA

Sundays at Tiffany's (2010 Movie)

The right choice isn't always the best choice.

Dear Entertainment Diary,

Hello Again. So I'm a huge fan of James Patterson, the author, who is known for his detective style novels. Though I haven't read that many of his writings. But I really love how his way of pulling of tricks of the killers or how the cops/detectives/Alex catch the crooks but there's one of his many best selling novels that caught my attention.

Sundays at Tiffany's. OK. I haven't finished the book, yet (I was reading it thru my mobile phone) and I was in the middle of reading it but I finally got tired of it and just decided tow watch the film.

I just love how the story goes where there's a girl with her imaginary friend who in the end, after leaving her for 20 years, came back for her and became her partner.

I know, in real life it can't happen, but who knows? Love has no limits. It knows no boundaries.

To tell you the truth, when I was done watching the movie, I just don't get the connection of the place, Tiffany's (I think it is an ice cream shop?), where our 2 heroes used to spend their Sundays together as children, in the movie. The place was only shown once, and it was in the start, and it was never shown ever again.

The child actress who played young Jane is so good that I fell in love with her the moment she cried while Michael was leaving her on her own in the elevator during her 10th birthday.

As I said earlier, I did not finish reading the book but I have a good guess that its ending is not as bad as the ending of the film. I mean, I liked the films ending but it did not go through my feelings that well. It's not properly executed that while I'm typing this post, all in my mind is to read and finish the book.

I love the actors who played in the movie. It's just that I still don't appreciate how they perform and give their own interpretation of the book.

The laughs, the sadness, and the touch in the heart is there. It's just that I'm not satisfied. I feel that it's lacking something. Something that Jane was looking for while picking her Bridal Dress, like when she was picking her wedding flowers, etc.

Now what I want is to finish the book, or probably want to wait another remake of the book where everything we need to know about the book, the whole story, the info, and where we can find the answers that satisfy us in all the questions that built up while watching the film.

Throwback Movie: Bring It On: All or Nothing

Hey Amber!

Hey What?!

Introduce yourself!

Dear Entertainment Diary,

Hey guys! It's been a while, like, I don't know how long has it been since I last post here, and I just got really busy and stiff but I really miss doing this entertainment diary where I can share all my thoughts and all the stuff that pops in my head.

Been watching a lot of movies/animes/series lately but I want to post about the movie that I just l Re-Watched, Bring It On: All or Nothing!

I know. Old School, but this movie is soooo deliciously funny, all I did is to download it again and re-watched the movie, for like, the 10th time!

This film is not just about cheer-dancing. It's also about Friendship and Love (if you dig deeper in the story).

We all know and love Hayden Panetierre, right? Saw a lot of her movies since she was a little young-un, but this, for me, was where she stood out. 

The dancing skills wasn't that good but it was all worth the watch. 

The story is all about Britney Allen's life after she resigned as the Cheer Captain of her then-School, Pacific Vista, and transferred as the New White chick in a School of Ghetto, Crenshaw Heights.

Her previous cheer mates asked her to officially swear in all of them that she won't ever cheer again, but, cheering is her life. Cheering is what she loves to do and we all know that we will do anything, or everything, rather, just to do what we love!

At first, it was so hard for her to move on and blend with the new race where she is currently in, but because she is beautiful, talented, and all, she obtained the trust of the cheerleaders in her new school who saw her potential and got her in the team.

This was where the new roller coaster of her life began as she hides her feelings for a new man she loves, she hides her current cheering status in her old friends, and hides in her new cheering squad that she still wants to cheer with her old squad.

Just watch the film (if you haven't seen it, yet) and sing along with their cheers!

CAST (from wikipedia.com):

Hayden Panettiere as Britney Allen
Solange Knowles as Camille
Gus Carr as Jesse
Marcy Rylan as Winnie Harper
Cindy Chiu as Amber
Giovonnie Samuels as Kirresha
Francia Almendárez as Leti
Gary LeRoi Gray as Tyson

Would You Rather (2012 Film)

Dear Entertainment Diary,

I really liked, not that loved, Brittany Snow ever since I saw her on John Tucker Must Die, which is the first of her films that I have seen. I'm not that much of a fan but I saw Prom Night, The Pacifier, Pitch Perfect, and the most recent, Would You Rather.

OK. So I loved this film. I don't know if it is considered as a horror film but I really loved it! The acting and the plot are superb. The actors, the twists, and most of all, I loved how it is not based from a book/novel, nor a remake, but is based from a Party Game!

I've seen films that contain crueler or many torture/pain but this stand out, for me, although it is not that gory as the Saw Series or many other torture porn scattered in the movie industry.

I love how Brittany acted as a very lovely, simple girl that will do anything for her brother. The plot revolves around her, on how low can she be when it comes to saving her brother.

The game is very simple; the host will give the players 2 options per level and as the level goes up, and the players are still playing or not yet eliminated, the options get harder and harder. The rules are simple but the things they must accomplish aren't. There also comes to a point where they need to choose who to suffer, themselves or others.

I've watched films with the same genre; survival/death game, but as I said, this one stood out because of the twists and turns and stuff. Because it also contains a story. A dramatic plot. Suspense. Thrills.

It's very worth watching. 

Some questions were on my mind as I began watching the film. Will his brother survive in the end and how low can she go? Will she be able to commit crimes against her will or will she do it just to get what she thinks that will give her brother a chance to live longer? Will she find true love?

And I'm very satisfied with the answers given at the end of the film. I was actually shocked cus I did not expect such scenes, so, GOO JOB!

I encourage you all to watch the film and be amazed, thrilled, and be filled with tension and suspense because this is not the kind of torture film that we are watching nowadays, but a very silent and dark flm with superb acting, good plot, shocking scenes, annoying characters, and bittersweet ending.

CAST (from IMDB):

Brittany Snow - Iris

Jeffrey Combs - Shepard Lambrick

Jonny Coyne - Bevans (as Jonathan Coyne)

Lawrence Gilliard Jr. - Dr. Barden

Enver Gjokaj - Lucas

Sasha Grey - Amy

John Heard - Conway

Pitch Perfect ( 2012 Film)

Dear Entertainment Diary,

Long time, no post. Sorry for that as I was busy this past month and didn't get to update entertainment stuff like Demi's Heart Attack video, Selenas's Come and Get It video, and many more that I have watched or seen. I've seen a lot of films lately but I didn't have internet connection and I was busy serving and entertaining my relatives who just came back from other country. I was also busy going back and forth to Manila and I wish I'll never do it again. UGHHHHH.

Moving On, Pitch Perfect is only one of the movies that I have watched and I should not let this movie slip here in my blog as this is the most laughing stock/funniest film I have watched in AGES.

I've known about the film since last year when I saw it in the top 100 Best films on Itunes. I was actually going to download it that day but I downloaded another horror film, which I haven't yet watched. And this March, I was gong to download it again but my brother told me that he already has a copy given by our cousin who also loved the film that much. I mean, who wouldn't? It's musical/comedy. We dig these kind of stuff.

Pitch Perfect is just funny as hell kind of movie that even the corniest jokes in the film can make the viewers laugh (which means it's not corny anymore). What makes me love the film more is that it contains music and features song that I also love. The actors are all good especially Rebel Wilson who is one of the play makers in the films. The song choices, how they mashed it all up and made it their own were just superb and fantastically stunning. 

The plot revolves around Beca, a newly arrived freshman at Barden University, on how she managed to cope up with the Pitches (B*tches) when all she really wanted (at first) is to be a DJ and create her own sounds and pursue her own music career. The movie also tells the story of an all female A Capella group called The Barden Bellas on how they sing their hearts out and not let their fears, tensions, and having sex with their male rivals take over.

I've got to tell you, this film is worth watching. 

As of now, I really can't wait for the sequel. I actually did not recognize Brittany Snow here, as well as I didn't expect that she has a voice! :)

Anna Kendrick as Beca Mitchell, a reclusive and rebellious girl who wants to pursue a music career; she joins the Barden Bellas to appease her father and finds herself being caught up in their world.

Rebel Wilson as Fat Amy, (born Fat Patricia) a comedic and eccentric member of the Bellas from Tasmania.

Ester Dean as Cynthia-Rose Adams, a lesbian member of the Bellas.

Alexis Knapp as Stacie Conrad, a highly sexually-driven member of the Bellas.

Grave Encounters 2 (2012 Film)

Dear Entertainment Diary,

OK. So the other day, we watched this movie I downloaded months ago, Grave Encounters 2, which is obviously the sequel to the 2011 horror film, Grave Encounters.

I actually and unbelievably liked the first film which we watched a couple of years ago via web and damn, I was actually got scared and many scenes startled me. After watching it, I actually thought that it was based from a true story because it was so realistically made and there are no unbelievable scenes. I think most of the scenes from the first film are true as I thought they can really happen but to my dismay, Grave Encounters 2 made me feel the opposite. 

The first 20-40 minutes of the film is so boring and the supernatural scenes, although almost perfectly made, are very unbelievable and unrealistic which made me hate the film. It didn't have the idea which can be found in its predecessor.

I just wish they stick the blueprints they used in the first film. Oh, and some acting are actually bad, actually.

PLOT:

Alex Wright is a film student who got obsessed to the film, Grave Encounters. He believes that the film is actually true and search for clues and evidences to prove it. He then interviewed the producer of the first film, who didn't know that he was being recorded by Alex, and admits that the whole crew that appeared in the first film gone missing and never returned. Because of this,  he wanted to make a film about it, which he wanted to serve as a sequel. What they thought would be as easy as pie investigation actually turned worst as they were killed one by one and manipulated by the ghosts inside the hospital for the sake of finishing the film. #DeathAwaits

Cast: (source: Wikipedia)

Richard Harmon as Alex Wright, a university student and filmmaker who becomes obsessed with the previous film.

Leanne Lapp as Jennifer Parker, a fellow student who is in love with Alex.

Sean Rogerson as Lance Preston, having survived, he has gone insane after being trapped in the hospital for nine years.

Dylan Playfair as Trevor Thompson, Alex's best friend and cameraman.

Stephanie Bennett as Tessa Hamill, Jennifer's friend.

Howie Lai as Jared Lee, Alex's second cameraman.

Sean Tyson as the guard stationed at the hospital.

Ben Wilkinson as Jerry Hartfield.

Arthur Corber as Dr. Friedkin.

Brenda McDonald as Mrs. Rogerson.

Collin Minihan & Stuart Ortiz as The Vicious Brothers.

There are many unrealistic scenes in this film including the part where they are being chased by a giant ghost, the part where they are n the elevator of the hotel then suddenly got back in the hospital when the elevator door opened. The part where there is a black hole kind of thingy sucking them up The part where a person lived for 10 years just by eating rats and his body is still physically fit. And the list still goes on. Watch it if you want but I wished I passed.

White: The Melody of the Curse (2011 Korean Horror Film)

Dear Entertainment Diary,

So I just watched another Korean Horror Film, White: The Melody of the Curse, also known as White: The Melody of Death, and I kinda like it!

For me, it's not a typical horror film which you can understand everything into it just by watching the whole film itself. There are some important scenes but were very unnoticeable and I need to take some hints online or check some pages that contain the complete film list/plot. I don't know why but was I just a lil' bit slow when I was watching it?

Ok, so, it's about a cursed suicidal song wherein the writer/composer seeks revenge to anyone who sang it. Cursed things with revengeful plot lines are typically normal for Asian Horror film, which for me, started to see huge fame since The Ring and The Grudge. It's very typical that I think Asian horror writers and directors have nothing new to offer so I was expecting a natural horror film but this actually made me confused and think so hard just to tie up the story, which is good because I was so attached to the film that I wanna know everything about it.

For me, it's not that scary. Yes, scenes thrilled and scared me but not like what I felt while watching some horror films that I previously watched. BUT still, the just by watching it make feel afraid to go to the bathroom especially the scenes where the spirit/ghost was haunting the characters.

Although I am glad on how the story made me feel confuse and made me search for what was really happening, there are really some parts of the film that have loopholes and stuff which is kind of unbelievable. I.e., the scene where Shin-Ji was crushed by that certain vehicle that rise up the camera, I thought she was dead. Actually, what happened to the first 3 members should've killed them already. Obviously, they should die that time, but no, for the story's sake, all of them were just comatose for I dunno, "weeks?", and then when White (Eun-Joo) is on the peak of popularity, they all woke up at the same time then their characters were also killed near the end. I mean, why let them live if they would also commit suicide in the end? Just so they can blame and accuse Eun Joo for sabotaging them when they were chosen as the main? Tss.

Another thing, the Group Pink Dolls were consisted of four members in the start but when the members was hosptalized one by one, they didn't emphasize nor shown in the film what were the "natural reactions" of the fans? What? The fans were also mesmerized by the song so they didn't care about their idols even when they were hurt BADLY? So why did the fans wanted to save Shin-Ji when she was floating in mid air when her hair was stuck?

But overall, I liked the film for slowly giving us each detail in the film and for not obviously hinting us how the characters will die. 

PLOT (from asianwiki):

Girl group "Pink Dolls" is always pushed into the background by other popular idols. When the girls release their new song "White" - a remake from unknown origins they become instant sensations. 

The four members of "Pink Dolls" include Eun-Joo (Ham Eun-Jung), a former breakdancer, Jenny (Jin Se-Yeon), a singer insecure with hitting high notes, A-Rang (Choi Ah-Ra), a singer addicted to plastic surgery, and Shin-Ji (May Doni Kim) who can't sing, but is good at rapping. As the group becomes more and more popular, jealousy and competitiveness increases as all the girls tries to become the lead singer. But, when a member becomes the lead singer that person falls victim to a horrible accident, one by one. Eun-Joo then realizes that the song "White" is cursed and she attempts to reveal the secret ...

I put this plot because I don't want to tell here the whole story or give mainly about the film. If you want to read the complete plot, wikipedia has it! But I advise you to go and just watch the film instead of reading the whole plot so you can feel what I feel.

Cast (from asianwiki)

Ham Eun-Jung - Eun-Joo

May Doni Kim - Shin-Ji  

Choi Ah-Ra - A-Rang

Jin Se-Yeon - Jenny  

Hwang Woo Seul Hye - Soon-Ye  

Pyeon Jung-Su - Talent Agent

Kim Young-Min - Lee Tae-Yong

Kim Ki-Bang - manager

Choi Min-Chul - Director Choi Tae-Gon

Nam Sang-Ran - member 1 of Jang team

I mentioned earlier about the film not giving me everything I want to know so I need to research about it. I was actually telling you guys about the end of the film, on how the song was played in the videoke and why the last character killed was included to be killed. You'll find out in the wikipedia page, actually. HAHA. And also about who is th on seeking revenge in this film.

OH! And can someone tell me who's the actor who played the sponsor of Eun-Joo? Can't seem to find his name!

Dora Explorer and the Destiny Medallion: The Movie (CollegeHumor)

Dear Entertainment Diary,

So my brother and I just watched the 2 parts of the 3-part-miniseries by College Humor, "Dora The Explorer and the Destiny Medallion".

I got hooked up with this Dora videos when I saw the Dora The Explorer trailer also made by College Humor and I said to myself that I would love to see it as it is very wittingly funny.

So as I was browsing in YouTube, I saw that College Humor already uploaded the first part but I also found out that they released it on their website last week and now it has its 2nd part, and next week, the last part will be released, so Let's do this!

I am very excited to finish it now! HAHA.

Part 1:

Part 2:

Trailer that started it all (for me):

I've got to say that they all did a great job, especially Ariel Winter for portraying Dora and some environments of the cartoon and made it somehow realistically funny. SOMEHOW.

All the media on this page were from CollegeHumor.com. I don't own anything although I wish that I become a part of this in the future. HAHA!

It Takes A Man and A Woman Official Music Video by Sarah Geronimo

Image is courtesy of  www.facebook.com/ItTakesAManAndAWoman2013

Dear Entertainment Diary,

Explain simplicity? Simply, it's Sarah Geronimo! I always like this girl ever since she started in the industry and I've got to say that she is one of the few OPM Legit singers that I love and look up to. 

I watched her first 2 movies with John Lloyd Cruz and now, I'm pretty much excited to watch the continuation/3rd part of the Laida-Miggy love story!

We all know that the titles of their two films were taken from songs, A Very Special Love and You Changed My Life, and understandably, the third is also taken from one, It Takes A Man and A Woman. The theme song is sung by Sarah, again, and she gave justice to it just like in her previous movie theme songs, as well!

The song and the music video were simply sung and shot, and that's what I like about Sarah. No matter how simple she performs, we can always see sparks everywhere.

The music video, as I said, is very simple, but the characters in it performed very well and we can see the different emotions, especially love, everywhere. KILIG TO THE BONES! I mean, it's been so long since their last blockbuster film was released, and I'm pretty excited to this third installment, and I'm hoping it would not be the last of Laida and Miggy in the big screen. There's just the spark and chemistry between the two of them, and even though we all know that John Lloyd is in a relationship right now, both of them just acted so naturally good in the music video. And we only just saw the music video, what more if we see the whole film?

Well, bottom-line, I liked it and I'm very looking forward for the film, It Takes A Man and A Woman. Go Ashlloyd!

Here's the Music Video:

Almost Home by Mariah Carey - 2013 Song

Dear Entertainment Diary,

So I was just looking in the web and I've come across to Mariah's new song from her soundcloud, Almost Home, which is a song from one of the upcoming Disney Films, Oz The Great and Powerful. 

A lot have been saying, especially the fans, positive things! Yes... We miss her powerful vocals and this is like her comeback song from a while and I, myself, love it, as well!

I've got to say that this is not like the Disney Classic songs like Can't You Feel The Love Tonight, Go The Distance, A Whole New World, and songs by the Disney Princesses like Part of Your World, Beauty and the Beast, Reflection, and Colors of the Wind because of using instruments such synths and heavy drumbeats, and especially for being RNB-ish. But even though, the song still finds a place as a Disney soundtrack like her other song with the Legendary Whitney Houston, When You Believe.

Mariah still got 'em powerful vocals baby! Even in the beginning, those heavy breathy low whispers just gave us listeners the chills!

So here it is, Almost Home from Mariah's Soundcloud page.
