New Singles, vol.1

newsinglesThe first in the series, this will include a list of upcoming singles, ranging from Folk to Punk.

FineFrenzyBlow Away – A Fine Frenzy [Download]
Ditching the opaque somber sound of her debut album to a more upbeat, folksy  sound similar to that of Colbie Cailat. This is her lead single from her upcoming album titled Bomb in a Birdcage which follows her debut’s title trend (One Cell in the Sea). The album is set for a September release, so.. mark your calenders.

KristinaGoodbye – Kristina DeBarge [Download]
The single is already making big jumps on the charts, it’s very similar to Rihanna, Jordin Sparks, and the likes. There is no denying that the song is, ahem, catchy, very catchy actually.

LittleBootsSong: Earthquake
Artist: Little Boots
Album: Hands
In short: First, I’ve decided to ditch the big “Song Of The Day” and opted  for the abbreviation along with the title and artist’s name. This is one of Little Boots finer tracks, and hopefully a future single. The synths are to die for.

Song Of The Day

Filed under: Music | Tags: , , , , , , , ,

LeonaLewisSong: Perfect Stranger
Artist: Leona Lewis
Album: Untitled yet.
In short: This is one of the three songs that leaked yesterday, and it is the best of the bunch. I like the idea behind the song (psychotherapy/hypnosis to erase him from her mind). The pre-chorus is “Doctor, doctor, please, are you sure that I won’t recognize him if we should walk right past each other?” one time, and “Doctor, doctor, please guarantee that I won’t fall again for the way he looks so deep into me” the other. I like it, and I really can’t wait for her new album, I’m sure as hell that Simon will not disappoint.

Harry Potter’s sixth film is Oscar Material

harry_potter_half_blood_prince_dumbledore_potterI am a big Potter fan, I’ve read all the books, watched all the movies, numerously, and I personally beam every time someone mentions his name. My favorite movie of the series remains the Alfonso Caurón directed Prisoner of Azkaban. The last one (Order of the Phoenix) was extraordinary as well, it marked David Yates directorial debut of the series, he’s directing the sixth, Half-Blood Prince,  and the two parts of the seventh, Deathly Hallows (one released 2010, and the other 2011). Back to our main movie, early reviews are calling it the best so far, and even going as far as saying that it’s a strong contender for the best picture race at the 2010 Oscars, now that it has 10 slots, not 5. Continue reading to see Paul Dergarabedian’s article, it’s not too long, and I bolded the important parts, so go on..

20080606_steroiduser2I’m starting to think steroid are being sold everywhere, to everyone. Because believe it or not, people in Kuwait are abusing steroids as much as they’re doing Polos and A&F tees. It might actually be “Buy one Polo tee and get a free steroids injection!“. Now don’t get me wrong, not all and sundry are on steroids, but those who’re “using” are starting to look more obvious the more they shoot up their system. What’s wrong with the old fashioned way? Hit the gym three-four times a week, and get results in 4-5 months time? I guess waiting is passé. Oh well, we all know the dangers of steroids, if you don’t, google it.

Review: Brownies Delight

BrowniesI was going through my list of local blogs and found some of them (iLSuL6aNa, and Blushberry) posted about Brownies Delight, with the latter saying they’re the best and encouraging people to try them, so I did. What’s it like? It’s not good, but it’s not bad as well. I ordered them with very high expectations, and I was impressed with the packaging quality, it’s very neatly done, and very fresh when it arrived, but I was let down when I got to try them, they’re a bit dry and spongy. The best brownies in Kuwait are the ones from Choowy Goowy, Chocolate Bar (not all time, but they’re a hit sometimes) and Crumbs, although both of them aren’t THAT good. I have yet to have a tasty brownie in Kuwait, other than home made ones. I wouldn’t say don’t try it, but I won’t recommend it as well.

I Didn’t Know My Own Strength – Whitney Houston [New Single]

Whitney Houston - I Didnt Know My Own Strength (FanMade Single Cover) Made by MattI didn’t know what Whitney’s comeback single would exactly sound like, first I thought it will an epic ballad, then thought maybe she’s opting for something more uptempo, say.. a Darkchild track, and so on. When the song finally leaked, I listened to it thinking I’d hate it, but surprise, surprise, I don’t. It’s a ballad, but it’s a very light song, very easy on the ear, nothing too complicated, just her colossal voice accompanied by a piano. The song may not do as well as they’re hoping, but I know I like it, and that’s all the matters, right? yes? good.

ParaI have always had a soft spot for punk-bands, ones that annunciate not scream. I love Mayday Parade the most, they’re probably my favorite punk-band. I have recently come across this song, courtesy of Parachute (a band I have never heard about), and the song is just beautiful. It’s nothing too special, it’s very simple actually, but there’s just something undeniably charming about its simplicity.

keiraknightleychanel1I happen to think she’s one of the most beautiful women on earth. I’d taker her over a siamese twin fusion of Angelina Jolie and Megan Fox. Did I mention that she’s my favorite actress? Yes.

balloonAge is the first and main determinant of a person’s wisdom, you see someone who is 30, and another who’s 20, you’ll automatically assume that the 30 year-old is wiser, and more knowledgeable, which is not always the case, sadly. You’d think as people grow, their minds grow along. Even though I know it exists, and now more than ever, it always astonish me to see people much older than me act like “tweens“. Why is that? It most certainly is not self-refusal to grow up while growing old, because to themselves, they are full grown women/men, mind, body, and soul. I for one love having intellectual conversations, ones that I come out from wiser and with more knowledge, which very much is why all of my friends are older than me by 3 years at the very least. I wish there was a faultless method of measuring one’s wisdom, because age is not one, obviously.
It requires wisdom to understand wisdom: the music is nothing if the audience is deaf.“-Walter Lippman
