Well, it’s been a year since this song came out, but I have to say it still amazes me the way it make me feel. Primavera In Ancitipo (It Is My Song) is the second single from Laura Pausini’s 2008 album Primavera In Anticipo which won 17 days ago the Latin Grammy Award for Best Pop Vocal Female Album.

This particular song, featuring British singer James Blunt, comprehends the whole concept not only of the album, but of happiness itself. The title is an indirect reference to the spring season, saying that although it isn’t still spring, what is happening in this moment makes it look like if it was. Simply, it’s a song that everytime I hear, it makes me smile and puts me in a really good mood, and I have to confess the way Italian sounds next to English, it’s elegant for me, along with the fact that those are my two favorite languages. Official video along with lyrics are below. See you people!

Primavera In Anticipo (It Is My Song)

Per scontato non do, niente di quel che ho, neanche un minimo brivido, ora no. It’s the air that I breathe, it’s my fall at your feet, it is my song, I sing when you are gone. Confesso, sei la causa mia primaria, adesso in me, di tutto il buono che c’e. Ah, ah, ah… lo so, sei la primavera in anticipo. Ah, ah, ah… la prova che, dimostra quale effetto hai su me… perché. All my hopes and my fears, in this moment are clear, you are the one, my moon, my stars, my sun. Per questo, nei polmoni cambia l’aria, del resto sei, sei, sei tutto il buono che c’è. Ah, ah, ah… lo so, questa primavera in anticipo. Ah, ah, ah… l’esempio che, dimostra quanto effetto hai su me. Fiori, che nascono dai rovi. Qui fuori, cicatrizzano gli errori miei. Ha… ha. Sei tu senz’alcun dubbio l’artefice, di questa primavera che c’è… in me… in me. Qui fuori… ah, ah, ah… nell’autoscatto di noi.

James Blunt has said that he is all game to pose for a Pirelli calendar.

The ‘Your Body Is A Wonderland’ hit-maker was spotted at the launch of the 2010 Pirelli Calendar in London’s Old Billingsgate market.

And the 35-year-old crooner has confessed that he would be happy to bare all for the calendar if the opportunity arose.

“I’d consider it – why not?” the Daily Express quoted Blunt as saying.

But, he added: “I don’t know if it would be very impressive, though.”

I once picked up a guitar in February 2008, learned a few chords and never looked back.

I was compelled to teach myself how to play it, not realizing I’d bought a Spanish Acoustic not a Steel String Acoustic until I got home.  Amending a mistake which to be honest wasn’t a big deal, I traded the Spanish for a small Steel String on the market stall I previously worked on in Cambridge, UK.

Now all set to teach myself, with incredible determination I promised myself I’d never give up until I feel I’m good enough to say I play guitar.

Me being me, being able to play guitar wasn’t enough, so I sang a note. I’ll never forgive myself for subjecting my ears to that revolting sounds that forced their way through my vocal chords and out into the now vulnerable space around me. Surprisingly the stench of a sound wasn’t enough to put me off singing, or grunting should I say. I dedicated every spare minute to practicing how to sing and play guitar for several weeks. Suddenly that my awful vocals became a melody, the badly played guitar became a rhythm/ melody – dare I say, I had a song which didn’t hurt my ears! Writing songs has never been a problem for me, I guess paying attention in English and observing the world around me are now key! So lyrics, vocals and guitar now satisfy me.

I didn’t stop there, I consistently taught myself both guitar and vocals churning out a number of original songs, only half I’d say I like.

A year and nine months later and I have a recording contract, as a solo Acoustic/soul/pop artist.

An odd 21 months….

Lyrics to Primavera In Anticipo (It Is My Song) :
Per scontato non do
niente di quel che ho
neanche un minimo brivido, ora no

It’s the air that I breathe
It’s my fall at your feet
It is my song
I sing when you are gone

Confesso… sei la causa mia primaria
adesso in me
di tutto il buono che c’è

Ah-a-a-a lo so
sei la primavera in anticipo
ah-a-a-a la prova che
dimostra quale effetto hai su di me
perché…

All my hopes and my fears (my hopes and fears)
in this moment are clear
you are the one (the one)
my moon my star my sun

Per questo nei polmoni cambia l’aria
del resto sei… sei
sei tutto il buono che c’è

Ahahah lo so
questa primavera in anticipo
ahahah l’esempio che
dimostra quanto effetto hai su me

Fiori… che nascono dai rovi ah-a (ah-a)
qui fuori cicatrizzano… gli errori miei
ah-a-a-a ah-a-a-a
ah-a-a-a

Sei tu senz’alcun dubbio l’artefice
di questa primavera che c’è
in me… in me
qui fuori
ah-a-a-a… ah
nell’autoscatto di noi

Back in September, the Telegraph published its list of the 100 songs that defined the noughties. Reading through it, I found myself nodding in agreement at times and throwing my arms up in shock and disapproval at others.

A few days ago I tweeted the story to my followers, asking them for the songs that had defined their decade. After a few days work, I’ve come up with 50 of the songs that have defined my decade. These are the songs that, in my opinion, tell the story of the noughties—from 2000 to 2009—and will be remembered for years to come, whether because of their artistry, their controversy, or their relevance.

A few things to remember about my list:

• I grew up with music from both the US and UK, so the list will reflect that fact.  This means you may not have heard of some of these songs.  If not, I highly suggest you listen to them.
• This list is by no means authoritative or complete.  Choosing 50 songs of that define a decade is nearly impossible, as everybody’s songs are colored by their own experiences.  I’m no music critic–just a fan–so keep that in mind.
• The songs are grouped by years, but that’s it; there is no ranking, no rhyme or reason why songs are ordered the way they are.
• The annotations are accurate, as I have done my research.
• Not all songs on here are songs I necessarily enjoy, but may be songs that have simply impacted pop culture in general.
• I tried to only pick one song from an artist–the exception being Justin Timberlake, who appears on the list as a member of *NSync and later as a solo artist.  If I hadn’t, for example, Leona Lewis’s cover of Run would have made the list, as would have Everytime by Britney Spears
• I tried to keep it to five songs per year, but as you’ll see, this didn’t completely work.
• I highly encourage you to debate my choices, comment with your own, and compile your own list.  The more music we can remember, the better off all our playlists will be!

With that, I give you my top 50 songs of the 2000s.

2000
“Bye, Bye, Bye” by *Nsync
A catchy song about breaking loose of a no good lover, it garnered the boyband a Grammy nod for Record of the Year and is arguably their most memorable song.

“Wonderful” by Everclear
“Please don’t tell me everything is wonderful now…” sings a boy to his emotionally absent parents. This song got me through the darkest hours of my life.

Britney Spears in her iconic music video for "Oops!... I Did it Again"

“Oops!… I Did it Again” by Britney Spears
The lead single from Britney’s sophomore album, it remains one of the most infectious pop songs of the past 30 years.

“I Hope You Dance” by Leann Womack
Still Womack’s only number one hit, “I Hope You Dance” was—and still is—played at high school graduations across America.

2001
“Island in the Sun” by Weezer
Though it never cracked the Billboard Hot 100 in the US and only charted at 31 in the UK, “Island in the Sun” proved that Weezer was still “hip, hip” and provided some musical escapism in the aftermath of 9/11.

“Where Were You (When The World Stopped Turning)?” by Alan Jackson
It’s impossible to discuss 2001 in music with out mentioning Alan Jackson’s moving tribute to the 9/11 attacks. Eight years later, it is still the most poignant song to be written about that day.

“Fallin’” by Alicia Keys
Establishing Keys as the preeminent songwriter of our generation, “Fallin’” captured the 19 year old the Grammy for Song of the Year.

“Ms. Jackson” by OutKast
Not their biggest hit, but for a generation of high school students, “Ms. Jackson” provided a sick beat and a warning about the risks of teenage pregnancy. It also foreshadowed the great work OutKast would produce later in the decade.

2002
“I’m With You” by Avil Lavigne
Lavigne’s work leaves much to be desired, but there’s no denying the emotions behind her lyrics and vocals in this piece, which may epitomize the year between 9/11 and the invasion of Iraq.

“Beautiful” by Christina Aguilera
Released on Christmas Eve, “Beautiful” is arguably Aguilera’s most artistic moment—and the video doubtlessly her most daring. A song that inspired all those “othered” by society.

“Clocks” by Coldplay
It captured the Record of the Year Grammy for Coldplay. More importantly, it was heard in practically every film trailer and television show for the next two years, and it has one of the most memorable melodies of any song this decade.

“Courtesy of the Red, White, and Blue (The Angry American)” by Toby Keith
If Alan Jackson penned a moving tribute to 9/11, Toby Keith penned a shameful rallying cry for revenge against… well, he never really figured that part out. Still, even to this day, something about this song compels me to listen.

“Unchained Melody” by Gareth Gates
Admittedly more of a personal choice than anything, for a great number of Millennials (especially those from the UK), Gareth Gates is inexplicably connected with their adolescence.

2003
“Miss Independent” by Kelly Clarkson
The song that established Clarkson—the first American Idol—as more than a one-hit wonder, she showed the world that she would be around for years to come.

“Hurt” by Johnny Cash
Daring to cross genres and defy stereotypes, “Hurt” introduced Cash—and his amazing collection of songs—to a new generation of fans. It’s also one of the most moving songs of the decade, made all the more jarring because of the parallels with Cash’s own booze-soaked life.

“Mad World” by Gary Jules
Surprising everyone by taking the Christmas number one on the British charts, Jules’ version is arguably the most moving rendition of this song—including the original.

“American Life” by Madonna
Released on the heels of the invasion of Iraq, Madonna coupled it with a video so controversial even she decided to reshoot it. No song defines the Bush years better, proving even in a new century, Madge is still relevant.

“Leave Right Now” by Will Young
The first Idol ever—anywhere—produced one of the most emotional farewell songs in years.

2004
“What Became of the Likely Lads” by the Libertines
As Pete Doherty’s life spun out of control, he penned this lament about a friendship lost. (In this case, with fellow Libertine Carl Barat.) Fittingly, though sadly, it was the group’s last single.

“She Will Be Loved” by Maroon 5
Not Maroon 5’s biggest hit, though possibly their most memorable, “She Will Be Loved” defined my first year of college.

“Redneck Woman” Gretchen Wilson
Say what you will about Gretchen Wilson, but “Redneck Woman” introduced Nashville to the Musik Mafia and brought about a renaissance in country music.

Brandon Flowers of The Killers from their video for "Mr. Brightside," one of the biggest hits of 2004

“Mr. Brightside” by the Killers
Las Vegas’ best resurrects glam rock. Enough said. Though not the first single from the Killers, “Mr. Brightside” is the song that cemented their place in the pantheon of noughties rockers.

“If Heartaches Had Wings” by Rhonda Vincent
You’ve probably never heard of this song, about a woman full of regrets, and that’s okay. Still, it is the best bluegrass song of the decade. Plus, the video stars Miley Cyrus before she was Miley Cyrus.

2005
“Gold Digger” by Kanye West
Kanye is one of the most controversial artists of the decade (to put it mildly), but “Gold Digger” was one of the biggest songs of the year. And rightly so, as it’s just as catchy as the rest of West’s work.

“Baby Girl” by Sugarland
Though released in 2004, Sugarland’s debut single didn’t climb the charts until early 2005, inaugurating lead vocalist Jennifer Nettles as the newest diva in the country music pantheon. On a personal note, the lyrics to this song was the first text message my grandparents ever received; I sent it to them requesting money.

“I’m ‘n Luv (Wit a Stripper)” by T-Pain ft Mike Jones
Admit it—you were singing along with the rest of us.

“Wake Me Up When September Ends” by Green Day
A song about the death of Billy Joe Armstrong’s father, the video was yet another slap in the face of the Bush administration by the preeminent rockers of the day. The song struck a nerve with a nation growing weary of war.

“You’re Beautiful” by James Blunt
Blunt’s debut single may have made it hard to believe he is a former soldier, but it introduced him as one of the sappiest crooners of the decade.

2006
“SexyBack” by Justin Timberlake
We didn’t even know sexy had left until Timberlake told us so. With that voice and those beats, though, we believed him.

“Chasing Cars” by Snow Patrol
One of the most romantic songs of the decade, this was the track that finally propelled Snow Patrol to mainstream American success.

“Rehab” by Amy Winehouse
Besides resurrecting 1960s soul, Winehouse’s salute to alcoholism and broken hearts established her as one of the most talented—and tragic—stars of the decade.

“I’m Not Ready to Make Nice” by the Dixie Chicks
After being shunned—and threatened—by country music fans for speaking out against the Iraq War in 2003, Natalie Maines and the Dixie Chicks came back with a vengeance, speaking for disgruntled progressives everywhere and nabbing five Grammys in the process.

“Last Request” by Paolo Nutini
The first single released from Nutini’s inaugural effort, this aching plea for one last night with a lover broke hearts across Britain. Though he’s struggled to find mainstream success in the US, “Last Request” has still managed to win over countless Yanks.

2007
“Rule the World” by Take That
A perfect song to accompany acclaimed fantasy film Stardust, “Rule the World” helped reestablish Take That as a premier British band—and is the song I will dance to at my wedding.

“Bleeding Love” by Leona Lewis
The biggest thing to come out of a television talent show on either side of the Atlantic, Leona Lewis scored a massive hit with her debut single, penned by Ryan Tedder and Jesse McCartney. Arguably the most memorable song of the decade, “Bleeding Love” established Lewis as the definitive diva of her generation, thrusting her into the same league as Whitney, Celine, and Mariah. (Note: Yes, it didn’t come out in the US until 2008, but it was a massive hit in the UK in the autumn of 2007—which is when I first heard it.)

“Umbrella” by Rhianna

Rhianna's "Umbrella" was the defining song of summer 2007

An annoying but catchy tribute to unyielding friendship, with this song Rhianna told the world she wasn’t going anywhere. Plus, as the Telegraph pointed out, it provided the perfect soundtrack for a rain-soaked summer.

“Grace Kelly” by Mika
You can’t be faulted if, upon first listen, you thought someone had resurrected Freddie Mercury. With “Grace Kelly,” Mika helped usher in the era of wonky pop.

“With Every Heartbeat” by Robyn
Heartbreaking and infectious, Robyn proved that the Scandinavians are still better at making quality pop records than we are.

“Flourescent Adolescent” by the Arctic Monkeys
Not their biggest hit, and perhaps not even their best song, but “Flourescent Adolescent” still managed to define 2007 for those who rebelled against the previous five songs. Plus, with lyrics like “everything’s in order in a black hole/nothing seems as pretty as the past though/That Bloody Mary’s lacking in Tabasco/Remember when you used to be a rascal?” it was the perfect accompaniment to the onset of the Great Recession.

2008
“Love Story” by Taylor Swift
Swift’s biggest single up to that point, “Love Story” helped propel her out of Nashville and introduce her to an international audience. It also proved Swift as one helluva songwriter.

“No Air” by Jordin Sparks ft Chris Brown
The best duet of the decade, hands down. Though Chris Brown is now more infamous for domestic violence than famous for his music, the blended vocals of Sparks and Brown illustrate why they’re both young stars on the rise.

“I Kissed a Girl” by Katy Perry
Offensive to the gay community or an innocent anthem for bicuriosity? Either way, “I Kissed a Girl” was the song of summer 2008 and propelled Perry to stardom.

“My President” by Young Jeezy
Never a huge hit, but there is something special in remembering the election of America’s first black president—a defining moment not just of the noughties, but of modern history. This song is the celebration of a milestone preceded by centuries of struggle.

“Paper Planes” by MIA
No song better describes Britain’s and America’s irrational fear of brown people than does this anthem for immigrants and oppressed minorities everywhere. The gunshots and ringing cash registers only serve to make the song all the more memorable—and relevant.

Beyonce's video for "Single Ladies" is one of the most iconic of the decade. Just as Kanye West.

“Single Ladies” by Beyonce
God, this song is annoying, but Kanye was right—Beyonce did have one of the best videos of all time. Besides, you have to admit, it’s catchy as hell.

2009
“Party in the USA” by Miley Cyrus
If the noughties defined Miley Cyrus, Miley Cyrus defined the noughties. Surprising, well, everybody, Cyrus managed to actually produce a quality pop record that, probably unintentionally, embodied the optimism of youth in the Obama era.

“TikTok” by Ke$ha
If you haven’t heard this song yet, go listen. I don’t know what the future has in store for Ke$ha, but this is one of the best night-out-on-the-town songs to come along in years.

“Never Forget You” by the Noisettes
Sure, Duffy’s throwback to 60’s soul is more successful, but nobody, except maybe Winehouse, can touch the artistry of Shingai Shoniwa.

“Just Dance” by Lady GaGa
When I heard this song on the radio in January, I told my best friend it was the first song that made me feel like it was 2009. Turns out, 2009 was the year of GaGa. If the forecast “Just Dance” provides is any indication, the teens will be dominated by Lady GaGa.

“Need You Now” by Lady Antebellum
An understated, underappreciated single from an underrated group, Lady Antebellum proves they are the future of country music with “Need You Now.” An aching song about longing for an old flame, it’s the best song Nashville has had to offer in 2009.

Don’t believe in your Science teacher when she tells you about the stars being ten thousand light years away from the earth. She’s actually a big fat liar. Tell her the stars are just a few clicks away. And if she’s still giving you all those scientific arguments, tell her to familiarize herself with the 1click2fame talent competition so she can have a bitter picture of what you are talking about.

Yes, the next star might be just living in your neighborhood. If you’re from Lancashire, the fame capital of UK, then maybe you should learn a little history about your place. reported by 1ClicktoFame as the hotspot “for producing superstars per capita than anywhere else in the country”. Now, that’s interesting.

Please stop convincing yourself that Ozzy Osbourne is from another universe or John Lennon was from another planet. The FAME100 Talent Map reveals Britain’s hotspots of talented musicians and actors. Every city is represented by celebrities that are highly recognized all over the world. And I’m not just talking about Ozzy here, I’m talking about James Blunt, Leona Lewis, Guy Ritchie, the guys of Duran Duran, Paul McCartney and many more famous stars. Well, what can I say? UK is definitely the home of shining stars, not the black outer space.

To continue the legacy, the 1Click2Fame online talent competition is accepting professional performance videos featuring a wide range of talents, from dancing and singing to the most creative performances of artists. It’s an online voting, so it’s important to be friendly in online communities for you to get their votes. The FAME100 Talent Map is the living testimony that UK is indeed producing

Imagine this scene- you giving your best shot in front of the camera, uploading the video and then after a few weeks or months, you’re more popular than Ozzy Osbourne. How’s that for a successful career?

Next time, when you are asked if the stars are actually blinking or where the brightest stars really are, tell them they’re all in UK.

Astazi voi vorbi doar de muzica buna,p/u sunt satula de problemele mele, de gindurile mele, da-le’n dracu.Lasa sa astepte!

Am reinviat!Am devenit mai buna!Mai fericita!

De curind am descoperit alt gen de muzica, si o trupa care chiar ma atras mult.Totul a inceput de la o piesa, de care m-am imbolnavit, fiind recomandata de prietena mea.  Aceasta este Nouvelle Vague – Don’t Go.

Mai apoi a urmat seara de eri,stind in pat, cu prietena mea, care si-a luat mp3, la aprins, mi-a dat o casca si mie, si a pus toate piesele trupei date.Discutam intr-o atmosfera relaxanta, despre toate si toti, ce ginduri, ce sentimente, birfe, vesti grandioase si numai decit despre baieti.La un moment dat ne oprim, tacem si ascultam piesa.Pur si simplu, amazing.

Savurati!

M-am indragostit de aceasta piesa.Toata piesele lor sunt foarte relaxante si bune.

Apoi mi-am adus  aminte de o piesa tot buna, si mai ales de simpaticul care o cinta.

Pentru ca viata e muzica, orice clipa e o melodie, si orice moment e o nota!

I know, it’s old and you’ve probably heard it already, but this is a great bit of stand up by comic Tom Gleeson. It does what stand up does best, shining a light on something and making you look at it in a whole new way. In this case, singer-songwriter (and walking example of rhyming slang*) James Blunt’s ubiquitous bloody love song becomes the creepy ramblings of a perv on a train.

For me it’s the whiney anguish in Gleeson’s voice as he argues with his imaginary girlfriend that makes this work so well (“of course I think you’re beautiful!”.) Quality performance.

*man, that is such a cheap joke, I really do apologise.

You´re beautiful – James Blunt

Composição: James Blunt

My life is brilliant…

My life is brilliant.
My love is pure.
I saw an angel.
Of that I’m sure.
She smiled at me on the subway.
She was with another man.
But I won’t lose no sleep on that,
‘Cause I’ve got a plan.

You’re beautiful. You’re beautiful.
You’re beautiful, it’s true.
I saw your face in a crowded place,
And I don’t know what to do,
‘Cause I’ll never be with you.

Yes, she caught my eye,
As we walked on by.
She could see from my face that I was,
Flying high,
And I don’t think that I’ll see her again,
But we shared a moment that will last till the end.

You’re beautiful. You’re beautiful.
You’re beautiful, it’s true.
I saw your face in a crowded place,
And I don’t know what to do,
‘Cause I’ll never be with you.

You’re beautiful. You’re beautiful.
You’re beautiful, it’s true.
There must be an angel with a smile on her face,
When she thought up that I should be with you.
But it’s time to face the truth,
I will never be with you.

Você é linda – James Blunt

Tradução

Minha vida é brilhante
Meu amor é puro
Eu vi um anjo
Disso eu tenho certeza
Ela sorriu pra mim no metrô
Ela estava com outro homem
Mas eu não quero perder o sono com isso,
Porque tenho um plano.

Você é linda.
Você é linda,
Você é linda, é verdade.
Eu vi seu rosto num lugar lotado,
E eu não sei o que fazer,
Porque eu nunca ficarei com você.

É, ela chamou minha atenção
Enquanto nós passávamos um pelo outro
Ela poderia ver no meu rosto que eu estava
Nas nuvens
E eu não acho que a verei novamente,
Mas nós compartilhamos um momento que durará até o fim.

Você é linda.
Você é linda.
Você é linda, é verdade.
Eu vi seu rosto num lugar lotado,
E eu não sei o que fazer,
Porque eu nunca ficarei com você.

Você é linda.
Você é linda.
Você é linda, é verdade.
Deve ser um anjo com o sorriso em seu rosto,
Quando pensou que eu deveria estar com você.
Mas é tempo de encarar a realidade,
Eu nunca ficarei com você.

Come posso volere che la mia anima si arrenda; togliersi i vestiti che diventano la mia pelle; vedere il bugiardo che brucia nel mio bisogno. Come avrei voluto cambiare l’oscurità dal freddo, come avrei voluto gridare forte, invece non ho trovato alcun significato. Suppongo che è il momento di correre lontano, via lontano; trovare conforto nel dolore, tutto il piacere è lo stesso: mi sottrae appena dalla preoccupazione, nasconde la mia vera forma, come Dorian Gray. Ho ascoltato ciò che dicevano, ma non sono qui per preoccuparmi. è appena più di una parola: sono solo lacrime e pioggia. Come potevo voler camminare attraverso le porte della mia mente; ricordi legati vicino alla mano, aiutami a capire gli anni. Come potevo voler scegliere tra il Paradiso e l’Inferno. Come avrei voluto salvare la mia anima. Sono così indifferente alla paura. Suppongo che è il momento di correre lontano, via lontano; trovare conforto nel dolore, tutto il piacere è lo stesso: mi sottrae appena dalla preoccupazione, nasconde la mia vera forma, come Dorian Gray. Ho ascoltato ciò che dicevano, ma non sono qui per preoccuparmi. Lontano, via lontano; trovare conforto nel dolore. Tutto il piacere è lo stesso: mi sottrae appena dalla preoccupazione. è più di una semplice parola: sono lacrime e pioggia

I love a bit of trashy reporting with News of the World, The Mirror and Today Tonight usually getting a daily drop by. However I have just stumbled across a new jem in 3am. Aside from having news categories named “Ooh”, “Gasp” and “Phwoar”, every second story is on Peter Andre. I hope they take monetary donations as I would love to be personally responsible for keeping these guys going.

Special mention must go to a story titled ‘Lady Gaga And Agyness Deyn Desperately Seeking Attention At Fashion Awards Makes Us Want To Give Up And Retrain As Organic Farmers’. But I’m confused, what is the authors honest personal opinion on them? I suspect the following excerpt answers that: “So now you know (Gaga) dressing up like an arthritic wasp (we’re so out of sighs, we’re not even going to sigh any more about wearing her underwear on the outside) is in this nano-second…A ‘source’ said: “They both look like utter twats and deserve to die.”

Who’s this “source”? Josef Fritzl? Because that is pretty darn harsh. I know that sometimes in my rantings I come off as a bit of a bitter war vet, namely when discussing James Blunt, but to go so far as to wish physical harm to them? To myself when I listen to what they have given the world, maybe, but not to them. So 3am I am going to go out on a limb here and say there is no source. The author is the source and has let his/her personal opinions get in the way of good journalism. For a publication to make News of the World look good, well something must be up as I am fairly certain their chief editor is a mountain goat.

RE: RE: Dear: SA FM

OK I get it. You probably get thousands of emails a day from people who think they can change the station with vague ideas such as “don’t play shit music” and you may be thinking “oh it’s all well and good to sit atop your high horse and give orders. Come do what we do.” Then allow me to do a rapid dismount. My ideas include:

Less Akon more Dre: Tell Akon to give it up. Dre did it better with ‘Bitches Ain’t Shit’. He wasn’t trying to get on their good side during the corporate hours by telling them they’re “Sexy Bitches” then come evening trying to slip it in while they slept. I’m on to him.

Less Chris Brown more T-Pain: One likes to give a solid beat down. One likes to cruise on boats. I know who I’m going to the afterlife with.

Less Jessica Mauboy Less Guy Sebastian More Shannon Noll More Lisa Mitchell: Nothing good can come of reality TV. Unless it’s Paradise Hotel, that show was great. Perhaps if the premise of Australian Idol was “Let’s give them something to sing for: Their LIFE.” Same deal, except whoever’s in the bottom 3 would go one-on-one with a great white or perhaps a panther. The survivor then gets to come back and do it again the following week. I guarantee you contestants would give 110% to their song choice and we’d get to weed out the Damien Leith’s of the world nice and early. Actually pretend you didn’t read this, I am going to pitch this to Channel Ten. In the meantime play more “Big Black Shiny Car”, that song is hilarious.

Less ‘Better Man’ more ‘Do The Evolution’: Did you know that Pearl Jam have a whole back catalogue of songs on albums? Feel free to play one of them. This also applies to Nirvana ‘Smells Like Teen Spirit’ and ‘Come As You Are’.

Less ‘Haileys Comet’ more ‘Sussidio’: Every time you feel your hand go to the PLAY button ask yourself  “Is today the day?” So is today the day that one person flips out from a comet overload? If the answer is “possibly” then quickly go to the emergency programming of Phil Collins – Sussudio or John Farnham – Playing to Win.

Less Lady GaGa more Peaches: Hey GaGa, Peaches called. She wants her look and demeanour back. Whenever you’re ready.

Less Newton Faulkner more James Blunt: If you don’t know this already, I do not rate James Blunt. Check him for a vulva I say. But Newton Faulker is the new Blunt. Who was the new Enrique Iglesias. Who was the new Marc Cohn. Who was the new Rick Astley. Pattern? As there were many before him, so shall there be many after him. Should I take solace in the fact that in 2 months time when “Steve Jones” releases the hit “Baby Girl I’m Gonna Lay You Down And Enter You” which will take the easy listening chart by storm, I will probably be praying for a little “Dream Catch Me”?

How am I doing so far? Do you require more ideas? Don’t bite off more than you can chew, digest these first and then I’ll feed you more in due course. (Too much with the food metaphor?)

I hate this fucking song so much.

Клип на песню с  дебютного альбома британского исполнителя Джеймса Бланта Back to Bedlam, увидевшего свет в 2004 году. Альбом в последствии стал платиновым не только в Великобритании, но и Америки. Ниже описание HDTV рипа и ссылка на яндекс.диск. А кому не хватает скриншотов под катом, могут посмотреть аутентичное превью в YouTube.
