Lana Teramae | Me, Myself and Time
My name is Lana Teramae and I write about music, Disney, TV shows, movies, and whatever suits my interests.
After refunding my Def Leppard concert tickets for summer 2020, I decided to purchase new concert tickets for a band that my 13-year-old self never got to see live...One Direction! Well, at least part of One Direction. On June 19, 2020, I purchased two tickets to see Harry Styles at the MGM Grand Garden Arena... Continue Reading →
You can say this is a sequel to my previous post titled, Is YouTube a Distraction or a Lifestyle? That post was from March 6, 2020 (pre-COVID) and I thought it’d be good to do an update on how I feel about that argument. After all, I’ve been stuck mostly at home for the past... Continue Reading →
This past week, I finished an American Idol marathon for season eight in three days, excluding the auditions. Since the memories of Adam Lambert’s brilliant performances are still fresh in my mind, I thought it’d be a perfect opportunity to rank my top five performances of his from the show. I’m only doing five because... Continue Reading →
After I begged my parents to take me to Hungry Ear Records in Kakaʻako, my mom wanted to go to Pearlridge, so that she could go to Macy’s and I could go to the Book Off. One of the albums I found was Whitesnake’s Slip of the Tongue (1989). Some of the panel on Sea... Continue Reading →
I’d be lying if I said that I never wanted to be Hannah Montana! I mean, come on, she was a normal girl in the day and a popstar in the night. She was able to have all the fame and fortune without the annoying paparazzi, thanks to her famous blonde wig. Hannah Montana (2006... Continue Reading →
After the success of These Days (1995), Bon Jovi took another hiatus before getting together to work on their seventh studio album, Crush (2000). The band changed their sound, yet again, by going more commercial and pop. This allowed the boys to reach a younger audience and fit in with the current times. I saw... Continue Reading →
Before I got into rock music, a lot of my favorite songs came from Nickelodeon and Disney Channel, especially Disney Channel Original Movies (DCOMs). I previously did a post talking about my favorite rock tracks from DCOMs, so this post is more focused on my favorite songs from DCOMs overall; most of these picks are... Continue Reading →
If you haven’t read my review for Bon Jovi’s Keep the Faith (1992) album, feel free to check it out here! For now, we are moving onto These Days (1995), the first Bon Jovi studio album without bassist Alec John Such, who was unofficially replaced with Hugh McDonald. The band must’ve paid him well because... Continue Reading →
In my 22+ years of life, I’ve seen many trends come and go, classic TV shows take their final bow, the birth of Instagram, the rising popularity of social media, and the rebirth of childhood shows through modernization. I’ve spent most of last year complaining that I never got to see Def Leppard in Vegas,... Continue Reading →
Before we get started, I’d just like to say that I will forever be grateful for American Idol (2002 - 2016 and 2018 - present) because it introduced me to the music of legends like Elton John, Foreigner, Bon Jovi, Queen, and Judas Priest. Unfortunately, the show has gone on for way too long and... Continue Reading →
