'It's the only way of getting out of here'

Ever wondered what would happen if you combined Latin American music and Western Alternative?

No?

Me neither, until I heard this

Let me put this algebraically

Let 'a' = Latin American Music
Let 'b' = Western Alternative

a + b = Holy craparoly

You have to hear it to believe it

Once you have, ever impulse you have will tell you to go purchase these two albums immediately

'Everything's not lost'

For those of you that know me (well), you'll know I'm a bit Coldplay obsessed and so it'll come as a surprise (note that's surprise, with and 'r' ;) You know who you are) to you that I haven't posted a song of theirs yet. So I think it's about time

I love this song

It's rather underrated and unknown and should definitely get more recognition, think (as most songs should do) it has a moral, and it'll always be there for you in your time of need (cheesey, I know)

It's from their joint best album - Parachutes (Along with A rush of blood to the head and X&Y) and these albums are unbelievable so if you don't have them just go buy them now

Now

I said now.


Anyways, listen and Bathe in the Brilliance





By the way (I tried to say I'd be there) it's a bit of an epic saga

'She doesn't do major credit cards, I doubt she does receipts'

Looking forward very much so to the new album out on 6th June, t'will be awesssoooommee

Anyways this song has a pretty cool contrast of simplicity and going mental, along with lots of their songs which are really cool indie/rock shizzle

What some people consider their best album 'Favourite worst nightmare' got best British album at the 2008 BRITS, which beat Mark Ronson's album - Version - So I take my hat of to them for that

When most people think of the Arctic Monkeys I reckon they think of Fluorescent Adolescent which was a pretty awesome song, but all of their stuff is pretty damn good, and very different to loads of stuff out there

So check them out on youtube/spotify or whatever cause they are a solid English band

'She's got enough she's got too much'

A few things

If you haven't got any of the Radio One's Live Lounge albums, you are missing out. Big Time.

The lead singer of Razorlight (Johnny Borrell) went to my school (along as the bassist of the libertines (John Hassall) - Pretty useless information but I think it's pretty cool

Acoustic versions of songs aren't always necessarily better, but in this case I think it is pretty awesome


Love the bit in the middle where it suddenly kicks off and in my opinion it is definitely worth 79p on itunes

Check it out

'Through corridors'

Just to let you know, I'm in a deep, thoughtful mood this afternoon so this may sound a bit silly.

A song I've known for a long time, yet most people have never even heard of it. It's an incredible song by a band, friends since 14 and used to practise in the basement of a pub. I bet the owners of the pub are laughing now.

I think it's pretty cool that what started as such a small thing to do for fun has turned into so much more.

I think this also just shows that with enough ambition, anyone can be someone

It ain't just about the music

My dad loves this guy, and I just realised why. He can get a crowd going like a madman and his music ain't that bad either

Anyways this just proves it isn't all about the music

Finale

I'm stopping this. It bores me. APRIL FOOLS. HAHAHHA FUNNY. Not.


Anyway, this song needs no introduction
