Uncluttering. huh. really need to go through my cds and strip the ones out where I like precisely two songs on the entire album and rip those to my mp3 player - Christina Aguilera, I'm looking at you....
Thundercats fan-made live action trailer WHY MUST THEY TORMENT US SO? I'm even absolutely fine with all the casting. Brad Pitt as Lion-o? Vin Diesel as Panthro? Hugh Jackman as Tygra? (my only beef is Gigi Edgley would be shorter than whoever they cast as the Kittens if she was cast as Cheetara) FINE. NOW GIMME.
Dammit. Done that thing of going round youtube to try the other songs by someone whose single you liked... and found that that's their only standout one - all the others are kinda blah. That and the frightening of what a musician looked like before they got styled for the video that the record company decided to promote heavily. Sometimes, enforced makeovers are a good thing, shallow and PR-laden they may be.
Listening to Live Lounge covers on youtube. Which a) proves if a song can stand on its own without the singer, and b) proves that even a really good voice can't do some songs.
Adele. Really. Don't ever do Black and Gold again. Katy Perry, on the other hand, could have had it written for her...
