Makes A Change

I'm going to make a post not about me for once, you'll be glad to hear. I'm spending a day listening to new (well to me) music, so I may as well share the goods and then you can tell me how you heard of that band years ago and that I'm so uncool, fair enough?

I Think I'm Falling In Love With You...

New song, There's Nothing More Deadly Than a Boy With Charm. Shall be more on the way, but a couple need to be passed through someone first, let me know what you think, though.

Step Into Christmas

Have a good one.

For Someone//Forever//

Lots of new songs are being pieced together, I will hopefully have another rough recording session soon and you shall hear the fruits (whether they are rotten or fresh). Some covers may also be done and I'll put them up for yourselves (or just you) to listen to.

For Now,

I Survived...

It was good, thanks to these lads, go check them out:

"There's a chip on your shoulder, love"
he said, "Would you like me to mend it?"
"No," she said with the arrogance of youth,
she knew it too, she's beautiful, few
would take her on, "Baggage," they'd say.
She would to and fro her way around life, without a worry,
I mean, what would she have to worry?
Apart from loneliness, of course.

Track 12 (The Space Race)

Before, I Go Forever

This last week, American elections has finally ended (albeit with a rather good result), BBC Radio 2 showing it too can be edgy and the bombardment of Christmas adverts all over the place.

Songs I'm Loving:

Florence and The Machine - Dog Days Are Over

The Whitest Boy Alive - Burning

Final Fantasy - The CN Tower Belongs To The Dead

I'd recommend listening to those songs. If you know of some bands/albums that I may like, please let me know, I could do with something else to listen to.

Halloween.

Have fun.

You Change Your Mind Like A Girl Changes Clothes///

Yes, it's Katy Perry. I admit I am partial to abit of Katy Perry, now you know (well April knew already, but she had to keep it quiet). One Of The Boys is actually a perfect pop record. Well, you can't keep cool all the time.

Moving on, Halloween soon, time for the capes and the backcombed hair, unless you're Russell Brand, of course, where you shall be chased upon a witch-hunt. To keep with the spirit, sort of, I give you my cover of Laura Marlings' Night Terror.

P.S. - I wonder what the stock loss for eggs in English supermarkets is.

Follow The Neon Light....

Untitled (Neon Lights), new song, although not a song as such, more a pure rip of Deerhunter's Strange Lights. Sorry, but I had to get this one out of my system.
