Jem/They

“Jemma Griffiths (born May 1975^[1], Penarth, Wales), better known as Jem, is a Welsh singer-songwriter known for her eclectic musical stylings. Her debut album, Finally Woken, includes elements of rock, New Wave-styled electronica and trip-hop. Along with electronic producer Guy Sigsworth (Björk, Frou Frou), she wrote the song “Nothing Fails“, which was later reworked by Madonna and appeared on her 2003 American Life album. Her second album Down to Earth was released on 16 September 2008.”[Wikipedia]

British people FTW! Jem a avut ceva melodii de-a lungul timpului pe coloana sonora de la Grey’s Anatomy, si trebuie sa recunosc ca sunt melodii bune. Check them out.

Intre timp am inceput temp job-ul, am cautat toata vara si nu e cel mai bun, dar merge. Asa ca in cele din urma am inceput sa strang bani ca sa mi iau chitara. Un Stratocaster looks pretty nice really.

Desmod/Zober ma domov

“Desmod is a Slovak rock band from Nitra and was founded in 1996. The former lineup is completely different from the current one and they have played genres including pop and pop rock. Nowadays, Desmod is one of the most popular Slovak music groups.”[Wikipedia.org]

Ei bine, dat fiind ca e vara si stau pe laptop, pentru ca e prea cald pentru desktop, sunt in cautare de muzica noua. Am dat astazi peste Desmod/Zober ma domov prin cineva. Melodia e buna, enjoy. Intre timp eu mai fac niste damage estetic pe laptop cu pahare de apa si alte zgarieturi

Keelay/We’ve Got It Going On

It don’t get as indy as this really. You can find the song at Keelay’s website. The music video is made as a demo for a DIY film making website/youtube user. Really cool stuff.

“I’ve got the devil in my touch…”

Cold/No one

“Cold is an American Post Grunge band, formed in 1996 in Jacksonville, Florida. With the release of their debut self-titled album, in 1998, the band quickly became known for its pain-filled lyrics and vocalist Scooter Ward’s distinctive voice. On November 17, 2006, Ward announced on MySpace that, after a period of uncertainty since that February, the group had decided to disband. In July 2008, it was announced that the original line-up will be reuniting for a tour in early 2009, followed by a highly anticipated new studio album due in the fall.” [Wikipedia]

Cold e inca o formatie scoasa la inaintare de Fred Durst (Limp Bizkit anybody) impreuna cu Staind.

Din pacate pe YT nu se mai gaseste videoclipul piesei, care era foarte okey, doar cateva liveuri, care nu sunt rele.

Piesa e cumva dedicata de solist to his mom. “That song is about my mom. I wrote it about her because when she was young she had some big things happen to her. Throughout her life it seems like all her friends had either died or had to leave her. It’s just personal and about her. It’s cool it came out like that because she knows the song’s about her. With the new single coming out, she’s pretty happy about it. It’s cool” ~Scooter Ward

As fi curios sa o vad pe doamna cum face un pogo or smthing pe melodia asta. Nimic nu e exclus dupa gaming&cussing-like-a-construction-worker-grandma.

PS: Versiunea acustica e si ea ok. Aici.

Moartea lui…

…Michael Jackson, sponsorizata de Ariel.

Jesus that’s sounds like fuck

Fucked up MTV

Nu stiu cati au vazut/auzit de MTV Movie Awards de anu asta. Pe scurt, MTV a ajuns mama comercialitatii. Pe scurt aici, via protv (cah cah)

First off, Sasha Baron Cohen mooned Eminem. Acuma sincer, e una din cele mai ieftine glume. Oricine ar fi reactionat prost la o astfel de gluma, si oricum Eminem e un WWA (Wigger with attitude).

“He first introduced LeAnn Rimes singing a classical version of “Jizz In My Pants,” followed by Chris Isaak singing “I’m on a Boat” and a duet of “Lazy Sunday.”

The highlight was Oscar-winner Forest Whitaker’s operatic version, complete with a chorus and orchestra back-up, of “Dick In a Box.” “

Hmm totusi, avand in vedere ca publicul majoritar pt mtv cred ca se situeaza undeva la 13 ani.

Si some-teen-love-vampire-action-crap-movie gets all the wins? C’mon.

MTV is dead!

PS: Acuma ca am avut 100viewuri intr-o singura zi via pidjin i should provide.

Fucked up motorworld

Un tip oarecare de pe topgear.com povesteste despre primele lui impresii in Monaco:

“UPDATE: So I’ve gone from never seeing a Ferrari California to seeing three in one morning.”

Romanul ii da peste nas: FERRARI CALIFORNIA CABRIO 4,3 I 460CP BLEU METALIZAT Pret: via autovit.ro

Tot pe autovit LAMBORGHINI GALLARDO COUPE 5,0 I 560CP NEGRU METALIZA cu numai 19 km la bord, pentru doar 196k euro.

Interesant e faptul ca toate sunt neinmatriculate. Presupun doar ca si le cumpara (cu banii jos sau in rate), primesc numere de inmatriculare temporare, i-si fac pozele de riguare – pentru Libertatea, Click, alte ziare nedemne de sters cu ele in padure cand nu ai alte alternative, si hi5 desigur. Expira numarul temporar, le dau la vanzare.

Ridicol si trist. Mircea Badea ar face o criza de nervi pe tv.

English mania

PidJin Rulz/Adobe ma fac sa tot astept problemele pentru internship

This one is for a free t-shirt.

Si stripul este…[random button]… this one.

Umorul cu tente rasiste este apreciat desigur, intr-o tara in care cel mai colorat personaj ramane tot un politician oarecare si alb.

Insa, stau si ma gandesc, un comicstrip inspirat cu subiect Obama si poate o campanie virala pe casutele de mail ale Casei Albe ar putea duce la cea mai buna campanie de guerrilla marketing ever. Pidjin ar fi primul comicstrip care sa apara intr-un  discurs al presedintelui “Once you go black, you never come back”.

Oricum, deviem. Imi plac cismele din dulapul lui Pid’Jin (btw, Pid’Jin e un Jaffa pierdut pe planeta pamant [Stargate cult ref] sau vre-un artist cu nume ciudat? Care-i faza cu aprostrofu). De asemenea, publicitatea mascata la LG este si ea inspirata…Shine? LG Shine? Get’s you covered in paint and still rejected? Asta da campanie de imagine.

BTW, cizmele ar fi avut un efect mai bun, mergand pe strategia de impaunare…numai Dumnezeu stie de ce citesc cartile alea de self help. [sight]

Pid’Jin, mai negru decat un frate din Harlem, incearca sa vorbeasca de parca ar avea un usor retard mintal, dupa modelul 50Cent (el macar are o scuza a fost impuscat de multe ori conform comunicatelor de presa din partea managerului lui).

Iar ultimul panel este nirvana pentru glumele la adresa minoritatilor defavorizate…o gluma la adresa Niggarilor facuti cu crema de ghete (foarte multi la concertele Parazitii nu stiu de ce exact) si o referinta la glumele cu somalezi din generala (Unde sunt cei mai multi somalezi? Depinde de unde bate vantul).

Anyway, that’s it for my bad review of a pidjin comic strip, please call up the guys that admin the edu section @myadobe and get them to stop screwing with the kids.

Testele grila…
