Ronson, We need to talk

WHAT IS THIS?!


I WILL ASK AGAIN, ONLY ONCE MORE, WHAT DA F?%&/ S GOING ON?



What´s with all this buzz now around Mark Ronson? Because he produced Amy Winehouse´s album? Look at her! She´s in a state!!!!!!The album is good but sound exactly like all albums! What´s the fuss!


Then the man comes, kills an anthem (Just, from Radiohead) and you let him roam the streets as if nothing has happened? Just, just like that? With no shame! No no, nothing! nicles!

This video could be an insult! Years and years trying to find out the meaning of the original´s video and PUM, MARK RONSON COMES AND THINKS HE KNOWS THE END!

The following video is an example of how bad can a video be,

And it goes like this...

To you, yes YOU

So WE, me and the other mes, are posting a song that makes us happy.

a door closed a window opened. a door and a window closed, a roof opened. Hope

This is a post full of hope. I look at my life and i can see a very dark road to walk. But i don´t know why, or where i get this from, i seem to find myself an infinite hope and peace


I need hope to help myself and the others. Right now i know i haven´t been the best friend to my friends. I have been avoiding them and hiding myself. I´ve been living a very independent life which i don´t know right now if it´s the best way to go, but i feel great just sitting on my own, listening to sigur ros and posting my blog even if no one reads it.

the tascam does not love me now

Right. So i had a bad day and, by the normal course of events, later i'll have a great night. I hope.

My profession is related with sound. that's what i've studied and what i love. but what do i really love about sound? i like the emotion of it, what music can bring to our society, not exactly how to plug a sync box to a pro tools and then to a tascam da 88

The last couple of days ive been bombarded with so much technical information about HD film that i don't even know if i understood everything. I wonder if i ever notice that if all im looking for is the emotion...

And so many producers are into that lame shit that is emotions! yes!

Today i couldn't record my pro tools edit to the tascam, tomorrow ill find out. and if i dont find out, maybe i dont need that. in my mind has been playing all day "charmed life" from divine comedy. in case you haven't figgered out yet, neil hannon is my favourite lyricist.

To Neil, for all the hope you give me.

And it goes like this...


When I hold you in my arms,
And look back on my charmed-
life
My charmed life
I hope, I hope if nothing more
That one day you’ll call your-
Life
A charmed life

Well I never really worried that much
About making lots of money and such
And I always seemed to land on my feet.
Though there’s been some difficult times
The good times where never far behind
I snatched all of my victories from the jaws of defeat

When I hold you in my arms,
And look back on my charmed-
life
My charmed life
I hope, I hope if nothing more
That one day you’ll call your-
Life
A charmed life

Well the course of true love never ran smooth
They broke my heart, and I broke theirs too
And breaking up was so very hard to do
But I knew I’d find the one
And sure enough she came along
And not long after that along came you

Well sometimes this life is like being afloat
On a raging sea in a little row boat
Just trying not to be washed overboard
But if you take your chances and you ride your luck
And you never, never, never, never, never give up
Well those waves will see you safely to a friendly shore

When I hold you in my arms,
I know that this is a charmed-
life
A charmed life

Pavement-Shady Lane

Oh, God bless me for all the years i spent staring at my TV!
This is my favourite Pavement Track.
I like Steve Malkumus's singing, and i tell you why. The first episode of the Portuguese version of Sesame Street started on the same day i started Primary School. I saw all the adds for this new tv show and i knew it was american because i had seen the add in a satelite channel. I like the big bird but my favourite was the dracula - he's got a funny accent.
Oh well, the songs in sesame street don't usualy rhime and they always have to sing it in an od way to make it fit the melody and Steve Malkumus sings like that, doesn't he?

ok, i'll leave now, i just said Steve Malkumus sings like Sesame street characters...

BEST to listen to their songs. I love them.
I was assisting one of the cutting rooms on Nigel Godrich's Tv program, " From the Basement"(BY THE WAY, CHECK IT OUT ON WWW.FROMTHEBASEMENT.COM) a few months ago and my eye was caught when i saw the bass player from Pavement is now playing with Sonic Youth,

Oh joy


Check the special effects in this video! they are wicked! ahahahahahahaha

And it goes like this...

Declare independence don't let them do that to you?

I was looking for "Human Behaviour" or "All is full of love" to add to my favourite videos ever, to share with all of you, when i checked that Bjork has released her new video.
This song "declare independence" is from Bjork's most recent album, Volta, released last year.
I'm always very excited when bjork puts a new album out there, but i have to be honest, "Volta" didn't do much for me. I love the artwork (as always). My favourite tracks are this one, " the dull flame of desire" and "earth intruders" but the other ones just don't do much for me. Usualy her albums take a while to understand, and then you get to the point where you just can't take her songs out of your ipod/headphones. it gets addictive. But no, not this one.
Also i think she produces too much music. there's too much coming out and starts being a bit too much to digest.

Never the less, she's my favourite artist, always has been.

Declare independence is a very political song and the video even more so. A man playing an instrument with strings that leads to Bjork that leads to a crowd with no character. Bjork is telling them to raise their flags and be patriotic about whatever they want to, or they are proud of, but also seems slightly fascist... BJORK ISNT A FASCIST I know she's not. That's a character. Her character though is a bit fascist, she even raises her arm like hitler did. I bet she's having lots of critics.

To me this "fascism" is more, maybe, and this is just a personal opinion, about the music industry. because p[eople are attached to the strings that are producing the music. so i see it as " you hear what i want you to hear" now RAISE YOUR FLAGS!!! its a bittwer sweet message. she had to get slightly fascist to sort of wake this crowd!

oh. i still have mixed opinions about this video. i need to digeste it a little more.
Tell me your opinion. Lets open a debate.
