Top Gear series 19 episode 2 featured in their ‘Star in a Reasonably Priced Car‘ drummer and namesake of Fleetwood Mac, Mick Fleetwood.
During the interview, Jeremy talked about the success of the band and the history of their best selling album, Rumours. I never learned so much about the history of one album in such a short span of time.
A song that I’ve heard countless times before, Go Your Own Way, was mentioned, and it’s been stuck in my head ever since.
Here it is.
We now head into the 2nd month of the 2013, I cannot believe January just came and went. It was quick a busy month, with work and all. I finally got to build a new PC and so far it’s been just a peach to use. I will do a quick write up on it probably this month. It will cover the selection process, and why I picked the parts I picked.
Also, our very very late review on Resident Evil 6 is being finished. I know it’s been a while since it’s been released, but it’s gonna be done through the eyes of casual gamer‘s, and fans of the series. We might start putting together our retro review section. A lot of exciting things in the works, but also, my project list is filling up. I have another website project in the works to be launched in the coming weeks, as well as my photography, and the return of WIGN.
I apologize if we cannot provide you guys with new content everyday, it’s tough with work and school, the best we can do is fill up our folders with stuff, then just post them as we get them done. Hoping you can stick it out with us.
And lastly, an Earworm. It’s by Skrillex, and it’s been stuck in my head for the past 2 days. I am not much into dubstep, but this one I kinda enjoy.
[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YJVmu6yttiw]For the past few day’s, this song has come up in 2 separate conversations with 2 totally different people. And Annie has been stuck in my head since. I think I like this song more cause of the music video. That lean that they did was just epic. And for reason’s unbeknownst to me, this song was made into a video game by Sega, titled Moonwalker. Alien Ant Farm also covered this song some years ago, and it was a nice faithful rock rendition, and the video for that was just a big homage to the King of Pop. As always, the Michael Jackson video is filled with amazing choreography, and his distinct dance moves.
Enjoy
The Alien Ant Farm Version
and the Sega arcade game
Ah, Biffy Clyro. The band with the mystery name.
Now, you all know by now that I love the Northern Irish band Two Door Cinema Club. Biffy Clyro is a trio of Scots, and I love their music, too.
This here song, Many of Horror, is one of their most popular, and there’s no questioning as to why.
*On a side note, I’m really hoping you guys see that Kaley Cuoco commercial. A, it’s hilarious. B, she is fine as all hell.*
Ah, good old Paramore. Although, this isn’t old Paramore. This is a different sound, and it’s a little reminiscent of early 2000’s pop-rock, like No Doubt.
Paramore’s Now is the first single off their new album Paramore, and it has been stuck in my head since I first listened to it last night. It’s actually a really good song. The lyrics have meaning, the guitar is crazy, and it doesn’t really hurt that I love Hayley Williams.
She can do no wrong, in my eyes. Except that crazy hairstyle she rocked in the music video for B.O.B’s Airplanes… That was… Interesting.
Anyway, here’s the audio released by FueledByRamen, hope you enjoy the song!
I know what you’re thinking. “Who the fuck is Lana Del Rey?”
She’s a hipster icon, if there were any other way to describe it.
Many girls in my school, (‘ratchet hoe” or not,) try listening to her music. The majority of those, of course, understand none of it, and still say they “love” her music. Many other girls just plain hate her guts.
I’m by no means in love with her music, but I do believe she has talent. Certain songs are better than others, just like with every artist.
Lana Del Rey has her own unique style and her voice has incredible range. It really helps her that she’s incredibly beautiful (to some, meaning, well, me).
I dig her music, she’s an individual and is a different sound from all the crappy pop that we’ve all been exposed to in the recent months, and her album Born To Die isn’t a bad listen. I like it.
My favorite song off the whole album is Radio, and it is one of those songs that gets imprisoned in your head. It’s been an Earworm for a while, and I’ve put off telling you guys about it until now, and I hope I wasn’t wrong in this decision.
Hope you guys enjoy it, if not, try other songs, too. Don’t be a one track mind! (One track. Get it? Music… heh)
Sorry. Nearly two weeks without a post from me. Being sick, being bombarded with Spanish tests (thanks a mountain, Ms. E), and in general just not having enough time, my posting has dipped. It’s midterm week starting tomorrow, and I’m not stressing so much as I am just happy the school year is flying by.
I guess, with all the schoolwork, you could say I’m lost in the heat of it all.
Frank Ocean will start my Earworms off right, as it ended the past season of Earworm fairly well.
This song, Lost, is the 11th song off of his debut album, Channel Orange.
Surely Frank will be nominated for Grammy’s this year, and hopefully he wins some (even though, in my mind, awards for doing what you love doesn’t matter, as long as you’re happy).
Anyway, enjoy the song.
While at work today, we were just randomly humming songs, and basically just singing or well yelling out random lyrics to whatever song that first pops into our head based off on what was said last. Our office manager started humming Bohemian Raphsody, and we all just started singing it. So finally my co-worker puts it on, and after hearing it again for who know’s how many times, it’s still an awesome and amazing song. Possibly one of the best songs out there. It has so many elements to it, and it truly is a timeless piece.
This got me thinking, how come bands like Queen aren’t around anymore. Instead we get rubbish canned, thoughtless music that’s basically written to be catchy and sell millions, but seriously you get tired of it after a week, and even if you hear it some years later, it still sucks. I don’t think there’s a song that’s been released in the last few years that’s really stood out for me, and well, be a classic. I’m sure there is, but what’s been played on air, not much. I got these thoughts also due to ‘A Dose of Buckley’s‘ latest list, of Most Horrible Songs of 2012, and I totally agree with his list, it’s all garbage, and it’s a shame that these artists are making money off of these poor quality songs. The actual good stuff that’s worth listening to gets drowned out by the likes of ‘Gangnam Style’, and whatever Taylor Swift releases or what not. Not entirely bad per say, but it’s not going to be a classic in the future. I listen to the 90’s and the Pulse on Sirius XM, and some of the song’s that we’re hits back then, you hear them now, and you’re like “WTF, I liked this shit?” In any case, this song made it to # 163 on Rolling Stones top 500 songs list. Shame, it should have been higher.
Enjoy the song…
And also this was Buckley’s List.
Ah, the last Earworm of 2012. I’ve featured Frank Ocean on our Earworm category once before, and I definitely have to feature the sensational artist once more. His music changed my ears forever.
Because of Frank, I was able to remind myself that listening to music is not limited to one genre.
All kinds of music are supposed to be enjoyed. It’s entertainment.
Novacane is one of the Odd Future member’s biggest hits, and it came off of his nostalgia,ULTRA. EP.
I’ve loved this song for the longest time, it’s cracked my top 10 list of favorite songs (and if you think that’s a hint to me posting an Earworm Top 10, you’re a genius. Unless you realized as soon as I said it).
Nevertheless, here, I present to you all, the last Earworm of 2012. Novacane by Frank Ocean.
This bloody song has been in essence an earworm since it started playing in the airwaves. I’m not a big fan of Mr. Bruno Mars, and the fact that this song is stuck in my head bothers me.
I do admit it is quite catchy, but UNGH!
I just wrote a blog
