Wouter “Wally” De Backer, also known professionally by his stage name Gotye, is a Belgian-Australian multi-instrumental musician and singer-songwriter. The name “Gotye” is derived from “Gauthier”, the French equivalent of “Walter” or “Wouter”.

Pop perfection does not come along often, but Gotye’s “Somebody That I Used To Know” is flawless. The song is compelling enough with its intriguing, minimalist opening, tale of a relationship gone bad, and Gotye’s Sting style wail on the chorus. Then we hear the female side of this story, and “Somebody That I Used To Know” is elevated to brilliance.

Gotye’s ‘Somebody That I Used to Know’ is that rare example of a track that hits you squarely between the eyes.

‘Somebody That I Used to Know’ is instantly captivating. You’ve likely heard it as it’s penetrated its way slowly onto the mainstream stations. The official music video has now claimed over 75 million views on YouTube, giving both Gotye and Kimbra their break into the mainstream whether they planned it or not.

Raw and bass-driven, ‘Somebody That I Used to Know’ is given its soul with Gotye’s voice – a vocal hybrid of Peter Gabriel and Sting – it melts over to bass with palpable raw emotion. His voice is at its most effective when, eyes-clamped and head back, he bewails a love now lost in the chorus: ‘Now you’re just somebody that I used to know.’

While Kimbra’s vocal has been likened to that of Katy Perry’s, that observation sells her somewhat short. Her vocal is clean and sugar-soaked, and undoubtedly – when it’s tipped to full tilt it – bears an uncanny resemblance to the American popstar. But outside the chorus, it is worn and melancholic. She weaves her melodic vocal around Gotye’s pained outbursts in the most perfect storm.

This song won various and numerous versions and remixes, many of them can be found on Youtube, each artist with his interpretation, since versions capella chorus of voices to the electronic and Instumental.

I particularly loved, the story is really catchy and you easily identify with the theme.

The song is not flashy, but it is instantly memorable and destined to be a classic.
The blend leaves the listener captivated and unable to resist the repeat button.

My mum and I used to always go through YouTube videos and we would talk about what makes everybody special. We were really close and so this is something that I enjoy.

One thing I need to mention though is that I don’t take video requests. If you ask me to watch your video I won’t even look at the link because I want to be able to find people that aren’t trying. I want people that just do it because it’s what they love.

Okay well thanks loves, see you around xx

Filming took place in the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah. Accelerating hard the M5 shoots out of the barrel of a very large gun, the desert backdrop hides the scale of the exercise. The BMW F10M M5 continues on its trajectory, racing across the desert, destroying everything in its path. With all of the destruction captured in spectacular slow motion the video makes for captivating viewing.

Included for your viewing pleasure is one of the most creative car commercials in years, sit back, relax and let the high speed destruction begin.

You simply can’t hate on Noah Guthrie. He’s netted more than 2.6million hits for his soulful, acoustic cover of LMFAO’s “Sexy and I Know It.” What’s even more to love about this self-made Youtube sensation out South Carolina, he’s not even out of high school!

Just take a listen:

Not only does the kid have pipes, he’s also very humble.

“Surreal” is how Noah describes his sudden rise to viral video fame, adding “I am just very blessed with my situation and everything.”

Noah has posted other songs he’s covered to Youtube but teased his eyes are on a bigger prize: “I’m trying to finish up my original album soon,” he said. “I don’t have a date, but it is coming.”

You go Noah!

Sara Duncan gets a haircut by her daughter Lola and the video becomes a YouTube Hit … I watched this today and it really inspired me to PUSH HARDER with my workouts and to FORGE AHEAD with my fundraising activities.

I really hope that Sara makes a full recovery and that her daughter will continue to have a mom for many more years to come.

This is why I am doing the Ride to Conquer Cancer!!

Honey Badger Don’t Care, the game based on the cartoon by the same name takes the phrase to a whole new level. MEDL Mobile and a “badass” named Randall teamed up to make a video game based on the hit video created by Randall last year.

Those who are not familiar with Randall should be warned that Honey Badger Don’t Care is littered with obscenities and while some are censored, others are not. Meaning, this is definitely not a game to buy for kids.

“You must eat”, chimes in Randall’s voice as the Honey Badger moves across an endless plain. Players take on the role of a Honey Badger moving along the endless deserts finding, and eating every animal in sight. As the players adventure continues they have their story narrated by Randall himself. Honey Badger needs to stay fed and that is the main conflict, eating enough to stay full and full of life.

The most noticeable part of the game is the narration Randall provides. At first it sounds a bit sassy, and a little annoying. Then Randall the narrator fully reprises his role from the video, giving nonstop advice while also yelling obscenities at the player.

Players maneuver through the game using a D-pad and a “maul” button used to attack the food. Each level is a day in the wilderness, with each one featuring a monstrous supply of wildlife and hungry Eagles, Jackals and Cobras just waiting to steal Honey Badgers meal.

Gamers looking for extras will be pleased with multiple unlockables scattered as well as an animated movie. There are Game Center leaderboards as well as in-game achievements. But, while the core gameplay of running around and eating everything in sight is exciting for a time, the repetition of enemies as well as activities and narration provide a limited experience.

Honey Badger Don’t Care is a blast to play, as long as strong language doesn’t offend. This is a quirky silly game with a cartoonish art style. For fans of the Honey Badger video, this is a must play featuring original narration and crazy dialogue.

It’s old but it’s still so funny. Much love to my brothers down South in Orange County.

The Innanets are a buzz with a new heart-throb. His name is Greyson. His cover of Lady Gaga’s hit, Paparazzi, had garnered upwards of 10 million views on Youtube. He was contacted by the Ellen Show for an interview and performance. During his interview, Lady Gaga called in to encourage and thank him for covering her song. He has a nice little sound to him; I dig!

This woman is incredible… she’s five times bigger then American president Barack Obama, with over 100 million views on youtube and her performance might even become the most watched video of all time!!! There will, no doubt, be more on Susan Boyle to come, so keeping checking in!

AMAZING…. Bless. 47-year-old Susan Boyle is now a star, who is being stalked by the paps, interviewed by the big shots. Get used to this name, Susan Boyle is fast taking-over from Lady Gaga as the new ‘kid’ on the block.

                 For some reason, I still find this clip funny – maybe because the reporter is such a moron.
