"Welcome to my humble aboad. Hahahahaha. Do you come here often? This is where I hold court. So do make yourselves comfortable. I might be an authroity but I'm certainly not fussy here. I'm here to light up the party. I am a candlestick after all hahaha. Watermelon. I could watch the mirror cool if you let me. You ever hear my impressions? Do you take lemon in your water or just ice? Now, I must confess. I really don't have any dance experience, but am I worried? NO! Why? Because I know how it feels to lose but win. So here we go! Because I'm going to be burning bright."

"Last time I burned bright. But I found myself in the bottom three. That bonlit a fire under me instead of on me to do even better. The panel was so blinded by my light, they can't see who I really am. Being on stage is certainly nothing new to me. Plus gee whiz that was something wasn't it? The whole experience was simply brilliant. Now I must pop this down on paper before I forget. After all, we must learn to cherish the good moments. That's important, life can be so fast paced. I've certainly accomplished many things in quick succession. I would like to say you are the author of your own fate. However, my first gig was certainly unexpected. Although the rest as they say is history. Tonight, I'm ready to get to the ultimate afrobeats."

"Last time I lit up the dance floor. The panel are still in the dark as to who I am. Maybe I can help shed some more light on things for them. Life really is one rich tapestry if I do say so myself, and I do. And Candlesticks have been a part of it always. You'll find us in the past, we'll be there in the future and we're currently in the... What's the word I'm looking for? Hmmm. The Now! A candlestick will add texture to any occasion. Always in the best of taste, we're here to bring the ambience in it. And of course, we're the centrepiece of any celebration. Tonight, my drive is going to be on fire."

"Last time, I turned up the heat with my jive. The panel gave some funny guesses. And I couldn't be more pleased they haven't got me yet. Well, here we are again. And I'm having ever such a banging time. You might have noticed that I like to infuse the modern with a sense of tradition. That's because my skills have been passed down and it's my joint to give them a fresh twist. In fact, the old will often appear along side the new. But tick tock. time is ticking and one mustn't dally. Of course, succeeding sometimes takes murtery positions. But as a candlestick, I've learned to light the way on my own path. And broth, let me tell you that it is lit, ha ha ha ha ha ha ha."
