Irreplaceable finally replaces Listen

The Keongomaniac, with the approval of the Board of Commission for the Keongomania Awards, has released the latest changes to the results of the 2007's Keongomaniac Recognitions. This time it concerns the Keongomaniac Songs of the Year, one of the more anticipated recognitions in the Awards.

Irreplaceable is Irreplaceable

Beyonce Knowles's Irreplaceable is widely accepted as a Song of the Year (2007), though due to conflicting information, the Dreamgirls soundtrack Listen appeared in the official records. Apparently Irreplaceable's time of release could not be determined at the time the results were first released late last year. The other 2 Songs of the Year (Gwen Stefani's The Sweet Escape and Sean Kingston's Beautiful Girls) remains untouched. Fans of Beyonce heaved a sigh of triumphant relief as Irreplaceable finally replaces Listen, a move they felt should have been done when the first set of changes to the Awards took place a few months after.

Waiting For You in Rehab

In addition to Irreplaceable, the Keongomaniac Songs of the Year award seemed to have been further refined to add an Overall Song of the Year - won by Amy Winehouse's Rehab. It is a beffiting move and has be hailed critically as "succint and accurate". At the time the Awards were first released, there were concerns that Rehab had been given an oversight. Following the format that would prominently be featured in this year's Keongomania Awards, also included is the Special Mention accolade. A Special Mention is not an award per se, but it is still a recognition in its own right. 2007's Special Mention For Keongomaniac Song of the Year is given to Elliot Yamin's Wait For You.

The Final Changes

This marks the second and final time changes would be made to the results of the 2007 Keongomaniac Recognition. This move has already been criticised by many parties as being "fickle", while others expressed concerns that results for the coveted Awards might be rushed thus not accurate. The following are the changes made earlier prior to this instant.

TMNT replaces Ratatouille as Keongomaniac Animation of the Year (2007).

The idea for a Keongomaniac Writer of the Year award was initially abandoned, but was later included, adding a further win for Harry Potter in 2007.

King of Wishful Thinking

I'm the king of wishful thinking.

Simply wishful to have thought that things will never go back to the way they used to be.
Simply naive to have thought that things will improve for the best as time goes by.
Simply foolish to have thought that one can bury the worst of their memories and hope it will never resurface again.
Simply stupid to have thought that great achievements could ever outweigh the great rite of passage.
Simply idiotic to have thought that a long period of bright times could never turn dark and downhill at the turn of a head.
Simply hopeful to have thought that all those who are there will always be there.
Simply delusional to have thought that there is ever light at the end of the tunnel.
Simply innocent to have thought that past ghosts will never haunt you at the present.

I'm the king of wishful thinking.

Wishful to have thought that the future will be bright.
Wishful to have thought that they will understand.
Wishful to have thought that the hard times will come to pass.
Wishful to have thought that anger will never be the issue of the day.
Wishful to have thought that yesterday can never take place today.
Wishful to have thought that today will never take place tomorrow.

I am the King of Wishful Thinking.

To think that a king can never submit.
To think that a warrior can never fall.
To think that a hero can never bleed.
To think that kings and heroes even exist at all.

Even heroes have the right to bleed. That is if heroes can bleed at all.

The Keongomaniac turns Pessimist today.
