TheNeedleDrop

Was trying to make life a little easier and came across this Music Reviewer. He's pretty awesome and looks totally cute on video. Definitely not a nerd, but he's got a very good shuffle taste on his reviews and the diversity? - It ranged from Death Metal to Dubstep. Both in the D Category and making a Double D? but heck it's music and he's getting it all out there. I've not heard a good plenty of these bands. I feel outdated. TheNeedleDrop has it all as Anthony goes through the entire list of albums that are in the spotlight for the year 2011. From UK to Italy.




I've not heard most of them except a few of the famous such as Mogwai, PJ Harvey and Rustie. but that's why we've got the whole weekend to check them out with a glass of wine.

Cheers Everyone. -
Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas with Lyrics.

Keeping up with this blog is hard work. Now that it's Christmas and All. I really can't believe it's only 4 days till Christmas. I really do think Christmas is only for children nowadays, just doesn't feel as special as you were a kid. I guess it's all the beliefs that come with it. So I've been decorating the house with the tree and some little tinsels here and there with Christmas Songs playing around.

 

This song caught my attention. I love how it's about the Children of Africa.It's so Lady Di isn't it when they take it all out just to bring cheer and joy to the less fortunate.
It was on a playlist .and eventually it came to And then the lyrics don't fit. Ya know the thing about music, is that most people don't bother thinking about the lyrics or its significance when they're using the song for their events or just cause it's sounding nice.

I've heard this at so many shop outlets while i was Christmas Shopping on Orchard Road. And you don't really pay attention to it until you get home and really take a good hear

 So this single raised $14 million for famine relief in Africa. But it's got the most depressing lyrics after that.
 And it's a world of dreaded fear 
Where the only water flowing is a bitter sting of tears 
And the christmas bells that ring there are the clanging chimes of doom 
Well tonight thank God it's them instead of you 
And there won't be snow in Africa this christmas time 
The greatest gift they'll get this year is life 
Where nothing ever grows 
No rain or rivers flow 
Do they know it's christmas time at all?

 I'm just wondering if they were being Sarcarstic when they wrote this song. It's a wonderful catchy song, but when you take a good look at it. -It really does sound like a mockery of things.

Nouvelle Vague

I find this song exceptionally funny. - I was just going through french music. And as usual, you think french. Your mind goes to Sexy. the sensuous. How a woman's lips, red and dark caress its ways down your body. They open their mouths and in god'S forsaken name you being an Englishman have absolutely no idea what the fuck they're saying. But there goes their lips going down your neck, over the chest circling it's nipples. . . . . . and then nay, I'm not saying it.

But this song by Nouvelle Vague,
You'd think the word love would send any commitment freaken running. - But This is Not a Love Song, Is an Absolute Lie. Every single last word screams something else. So mindfucking.

 

Wiki Nouvelle Vague is a French musical collective led by musicians Marc Collin and Olivier Libaux. Their name is aplay on words, meaning "new wave" in French, and "bossa nova" (new trend) inPortuguese. This refers simultaneously to their "Frenchness" and "artiness" (the '60s new wave of cultFrench cinema), the source of their songs (all covers of punk rock, post-punk, and New Wave songs), and their use of '60s bossa nova-style arrangements.

Hasta Luego - B-Tribe

i thought there were really little people writing about music. And I , because of my job have to review tons of music Everyday. - I decided. I might as well, Review them and then write about it. - Makes sense?
Plus it just helps me to do my reports. - So enjoy yourselves. I'm having a good time living the life i want to.

So I'll leave you with a Spanish Ambient song by B-Tribe. Hasta Luego Goodbye, which means,
-So Long and Goodbye.
