Once upon a time, in a very far country called Velucas, live a 17 years old orphan, Zuc. Zuc live by himself at a very small cottage near the Velleen river that flows clean and clear water. At Velucas, it is normal to get married at the very young age between 16 to 20 years old. This is because the people of Velucas didn't accept and agree on pre-marital sex and they are usually sexually active at the age of 16.
.
Unluckily, Zuc is not good looking at all. His eyes were a little bit close together, his nose is very round and big and he also have huge gap between his frontal teeth. All the girls in the entire Velucas did not want to be in love with Zuc. Behind his not-so-good looking features, Zuc actually is a descent, honest, independent, loyal and good young man. He felt so sad when people judge him by his looks.
Everyday, Zuc will pray to GOD almighty so that one day he can live in a place where people did not judge him by his looks but appreciates his good heart and other defined qualities.
.

One day, his prayers come true. While he was by the river fishing a fish for dinner, he accidentally fell into the river. The flow is very strong that he could not swim to save his life. 2 days later, the river brought him to a place that is quite far from Velucas. The people from that place called Kewdny save him and make sure that Zuc's health conditions back to normal. Zuc was so relieved when he found out that people of Kewdny was very friendly to him.
.
One thing about the people of Kewdny is everyone in that small country (as a size of a village in Velucas) is good looking. Most of the womens have natural beauty that is beyonds words to describe. The mens of Kewdny are handsome with the feature that will make all the girls in Velucas faint. Everyone in Kewdny have blonde hair, clear-blue eyes and tan skin colour. No one in this country is not good looking (or ugly).
.
When Zuc was in a better condition, he took a walk in the city and everyone in Kewdny look at him as if he is the most handsome men around. They felt that Zuc is unique and have special qualities not like the rest of them that are only crazily good looking and charming. Imagine, in a city where everyone is good looking, you're not special at all! (If you are good looking too!) dull!
.
Every girls in that town ask Zuc to marry them and they promise to love him with all of their heart. Zuc love the attention that he received. He never felt that way before. To be admire and love.
.
A year later, after marrying to 5 beautiful womens in Kewdny, (you can marry to 25 wife at the same time in Kewdny. Scary!) Zuc felt that his life become more boring than ever. This is because he had realised that all the womens in Kewdny like him because of his unique look and not because of his good heart. He now understand how a good looking man in Velucas can felt.
.
He realised that this is not what he want. He wanted to seek for his true love. He make a decision to go back to Velucas and find his true love. A person who love him because of who he are and not by how he look. Will Zuc found his true love? You decide....

hadiah daripada siti

Siti Nurhaliza baru sahaja mengeluarkan album studio ke-12 beliau bertajuk “Hadiah Daripada Siti”.Album ini memuatkan 11 buah lagu:-

  • Ku Mahu (Audi Mok / Rina Khan)
  • Melawan Kesepian (Pongky Barata)
  • Mulanya Cinta (Dick Lee / Adlin Aman Ramly)
  • Tanpa Kalian (Taufik / Taufik / Dato Siti Nurhaliza)
  • Biarkan (Azlan Abu Hassan / Azalea)
  • Kerana Dirimu (Cynthia Lamusu)
  • Hati (Sharon Paul / Shuhaimi Baba)
  • Wanita(Muhamad Fahmi / Shanty Ramadani / Dato Siti Nurhaliza)
  • Cintamu (Sharon Paul / Fedtri Yahya)
  • Sutramaya (Aubrey Suwito / Tinta S)
  • Sekian Lama (Azlan Abu Hassan / Azalea)

Untuk mengatakan ini adalah album terbaik daripada Siti, saya rasa tidak. Mungkin saya lebih suka pada album-album Siti sebelum ini seperti Pancawarna, Safa dan Transkripsi. Tapi ini mungkin hanya pendapat peribadi saya sebab lain orang lain citarasa kan?!
.

Setelah mendengar album ini sekali lalu, lagu “Cintamu” ciptaan Sharon Paul dan lirik oleh Fedtri Yahya sangat berkesan di hati saya. Saya harap lagu ini akan dipopularkan Siti nanti. Mungkin lagu ini dapat mengulangi kehebatan lagu “Aku cinta padamu”. Rentak lagunya sangat enak didengar dan otak saya mudah saja menyerap bait-bait liriknya. Nyata inilah lagu kegemaran saya dari album Siti kali ini. Tapi saya ni selalunya pelik sikit. Lagu yang saya suka jarang popular. Seperti lagu “Ku menunggu” dari album Prasasti Seni, lagu “Salju KasihNYA” dari album Pancawarna dan lagu “Bila Harus Memilih” dari album Transkripsi.

.
Lagu-lagu lain yang saya suka dari album ini ialah lagu “Melawan Kesepian”, “Mulanya Cinta”, “Hati”, “Sutramaya” & “Sekian Lama”. Lagu “Melawan Kesepian” adalah sebuah lagu balada yang seronok didengar. Perkara yang paling saya suka tentang lagu ini ialah vokal Siti yang tidak “over do it”. Selalunya, kalau lagu sebegini, pada ulangan chorus kedua kedua dan ketiga, pasti Siti akan menunjukkan kehebatan suaranya. Tapi untuk lagu ini, memang cantik apabila Siti kekal sederhana hingga ke akhir lagu. Love it! Good Job Kak Siti!

.
Lagu “Mulanya Cinta” pula membawa saya terimbau kenangan manis menonton P.Ramlee The Musical. Setiap kali mendengar lagu ini, pasti saya akan terbayang babak perpisahan antara P.ramlee. Dan Azizah. Lagu “Hati” yang dipetik dari filem Hati Malaya arahan Suhaimi Baba pula boleh saya kategorikan sebagai antara lagu patriotik yang paling menyentuh hati. Lagu dan liriknya sangat mudah dihayati.
.

“Sutramaya” karya Aubrey Suwito juga sedap didengar. Chorus lagu ini sangat mudah diikuti dan diingati. Saya suka lagu ini. “Sekian Lama” ciptaan Azlan Abu Hassan juga menarik. Bagi peminat setia Azlan seperti saya mereka pasti tahu lagu ini “tipikal Azlan”. Tanpa melihat pada lampiran album pun saya boleh cam yang lagu ini ciptaan Azlan. Seperti lagu-lagu Azlan yang lain seperti Selagi Bertahan(Jac), Fantasi Sebuah Cinta(Adibah) & Elegi Sepi (Azharina) lagu ini nyata tidak mengecewakan. Lagu ini saya kira amat sesuai dijadikan single kedua dari album ini selepas lagu “Kumahu”.
.

Sebagai peminat setia Siti mungkin ulasan saya ni agak berat sebelah. Maklumlah, dah suka semuanya nampak best kan. Tapi saya dah sedaya upaya menilai album ini sambil mengenepikan perasaan sebagai peminat setia Siti. Saya harap dalam album akan datang Siti akan bekerjasama dengan Roslan Aziz pula. Mesti ada kelainan kan! Saya juga suka sangat kalau Siti kembali menyanyikan lagu Aidit Alfian yang sangat genius tu! Hahaha! Untuk peminat-peminat setia Siti, album ini wajar dibeli!!! ***1/2
