OK so I bought into the media hype and I must say while it's not entirely justified she's written some excellent songs. Pity 'New Romantic' is not on the album though, I like that song alot. I also bought the Noah and the Whale album but I haven't had time to listen to it yet, although I've...

Happy Year of the Rat (no, not the Badly Drawn Boy song) to everyone!

I got a call today from the good folks who run our schools saying I've been shortlisted for an interview for a teaching scholarship/award (in my shock I didn't quite hear which it was, but I think it's a scholarship, which means I have a decent chance of heading out of the country for my uni...

Recently there was an extensive review of the Penal Code (the first in a long time), that decriminalised Section 377, which made consensual anal and oral sex legal in Singapore due to the fact this was an archaic law. There was a helluva furore a few years ago when a policeman was charged in...

So yes I've been hearing a lot about her, so I decided to check her album out. Some good stuff. Kinda like Kate Bush. But not really. Because no one can really be 'like' Kate Bush. But that's another story altogether.

And different from the Premiership top six one. General discussion about football/soccer/etc. (no petty arguments regarding nomenclature please) from England, Europe, and if you want the professional and amateur leagues of Vanuatu. Weekend Prem Results: Arsenal 2-1 Fulham Chelsea 3-2...

Ooh.

Possibly the perfect pop/punk song, next to 'Teenage Kicks' and 'Ever Fallen In Love'. Discuss.

I suppose I'm pretty late to the party, but I discovered this tune a few days ago and I'm loving it. Catchy as heck. Jose Gonzalez's cover is ace as well. Still kinda annoyed that I missed his gig here because I was in camp.

Like this is so awesome. http://icnewcastle.icnetwork.co.uk/journallive/thejournal/tm_headline=zimmers-are-talking-about-a-web-sensation%26method=full%26objectid=18903810%26siteid=50081-name_page.html

Well this is what being in the army does to you. Tsk. Anyway was having a gander at wikipedia after not having heard the Manics for ages and there's a ton of news. Jeez. So Send Away The Tigers is to be the eighth Manics album due to be released May 7th this year. I'm marking that date...

Fire away.

Happy Chinese New Year, all!

Well lovely. This tournament begins a day after I graduate from basic military training and most of the group fixtures land on my 13 day block leave before I receive my unit posting, so I'll be able to follow the early parts at least. Who'd you reckon will win it? Despite the wobble I think...

in the middle of our street

'September Gurls' is truly one of the best songs ever written. Indeed.

It's like, totally festive. Hahaha. Stuart and co. rip through some old Belle and Sebas favourites, Christmas songs from James Brown to the Sonics, and a bunch of hymns. Great stuff.

They've got a myspace, check them out. http://www.myspace.com/theveils They do this kind of epic, swirly kind of pop. Bit like Spiritualized. But 'Advice for Young Mothers to Be', silly title aside, is a real gem. It's got this ska-ish backbeat, a lot of sweet 'ooh ooh' backing harmonies, and...

This is the one record that's supposedly the most controversial ever made, so on and so forth. Has anyone hear actually bought it? Or, to put it mildly, has anyone actually bought it AND listened to it?

I don't normally give a crap about the Olympics, but this clip gets me almost every time, and I'm glad I was able to find it on youtube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fDsigCRtoyg :up:

I suddenly realized today I have less than a month to go before I enlist (Jan 11). One of my friends is already in, being overweight and in the extra 'physical training phase'. Four of my best mates are going in this weekend because they failed the physical fitness test and they've got a...
