Jasmine Sullivan - Luv Me Back

If you remember this was one of the albums I got in my massive spree, this has to be one of the best. I have her first album and this is just as good if not better, so rare I actually NOTICE real growth in an artist, and it's so clear here. What's she writing about, the melodies, the arrangement and the general quality of her vocals - all a big improvement from last time.

Her first album was a great album, and I don't know if she has as many hits on this album as she did on the last albums, 'Bust Your Windows' and 'Another Man' are instant classics, similarly I think 'Hold you Down' and 'Love You Long Time' will have a similar impact. The latter is probably my favourite song at the moment, youtube it, so impressive!

Other good songs include the duet with Ne-Yo and '10 Seconds' - but all the songs stand out to me really!

A really solid album, can't find a single filler or bad song, but that may be because it only has 11 songs, which may be the only fault.
But she's so impressive on this album, can't wait for her next few albums! Really happy with this!

Couple killed on way to plan funerals for three grandchildren

Tragedy added to tragedy Tuesday when an Ohio couple died in an accident on their way to help make funeral arrangements for their three grandchildren.

Marc and Misty Royce of Circleville were killed in a crash on a snowy road on their way to help Marc Royce's daughter, Kacey Stacey, plan funerals for her three children, who died in a mobile home fire over the weekend, CNN affiliate WBNS-TV reported.

In the car accident, Misty Royce's two children from a previous marriage and a 6-month-old baby they shared were injured. They were treated at a hospital, as were the occupants of a second vehicle in the crash, WBNS reported.

The children who died in the fire in Wheelersburg were Dwayne Charles Stacey, 3, Emily Rose Stacey, 2, and Alexis Stacey, 11 months.

Beyonce - I AM TOUR DVD - Review

I don't think I've ever been more excited for anything to get released than this DVD, that's why it's so puzzling that it took me so long to actually sit down and watch it after I purchased it. Well today it snowed, so I was stuck in, so I took this opportunity. Problems with DVD players, laptops etc tried to stopped me, but Beysus came to the rescue, I had to watch it today and I did.

So so amazing, and I love that she showed clips from all over the world so it wasn't just one static show, but the most  covered shows were probably Rio de Janiero and London, she constantly showed parts of those shows.

Such a special woman, the crowds were so so good! I thought I was bad, but we had people fainting in like the first 5 minutes, people properly bawling and just generally buck-wild crowds. All through this, I don't want to imagine how I'd react. She was really good to her fans in this tour, so many opportunities to touch her, sing to her and all that jazz. I would faint and cry, and wee myself if I was as close to her as some fans were in the show! Unreal!

My favourite performances were probably YOU OUGHTA KNOW (If I Were a Boy part), Video Phone, Single Ladies, Freakum Dress, actually I'll end up listing them all because they were all superb. So I'll just say Halo as my absolute favourite, that was her last performance.

It's hard to compare this with the last tour DVD, because that was ALL stage performance, and no extras, but the performances were timeless, every second I still remember. I enjoyed this as a DVD more than anything she's released, maybe the Vegas DVD in close second, but as a show, can't choose between this and the Experience. Both outstanding though!

The personal touches made the DVD for me, they were so so nice to see!

I could go on and on and on! Just go buy the damn thing! AMAZING!

List

I'm thinking about starting a new list to liven the energy here a little bit. I'm always so busy, but another list like my 10 Favourite People would require little effort or creativity and still mean I post a lot more regularly.

So my new list, is 10 TV Shows that Changed My Life, Ok maybe not so dramatic, but let's say my 10 favourite TV Shows. But I don't want to order them, because that's too hard, but I might go in chronological order, that makes sense!

I'll start ASAP.

Hi

The reason noone comments,..

Just need to clear this up, the reason there are no comments here, is because you have to be a member to comment on it, or have a twitter account!

So there!

Kinect

I've been round a friend's house the past two nights, and he has a X-BOX with Kinect. After being to the $1.3 billion C-E-R-N, I honestly think that KINECT has far better technology than CERN.





Just can't believe what it can do, give it 3 years and they develop some good games on this thing, I could get an Xbox!

Taylor Swift - Speak Now

Review coming soon, really really enjoyed this.

Too lazy to do a proper review for this, but just want to say how much I love this album. Taylor Swift is like Marmite I think, and I'm at the right end of the two extremes. Her songs are so so clever, and she's so so emotional! There aren't many experiences with music as good as this. My favourite songs are Enchanted, Dear John and Mean. Give them a listen. 

It's nice to listen to music like Taylor's in between the Kanye's, the Cee-Los and the rest. Just soft, easy listening, but thoughtful listening. 

I always find that my favourite albums of all time I've taken with me to a trip somewhere, #1 is probably Brandy-Afrodisaic and I took that to York in Year 6, then Taylor Swift's Fearless to Germany last year and Mariah Carey E=MC on the same trip. I think I now have the same relationship with this album, I took it with me for four days in France, and I had a dock in my room there, so at night I'd just blast this till I got to sleep. 

I wish more people would give her a chance, but it's not the sort of music everyone will like, as I said, hit or miss. But if you like music that's emotionally charged, then Taylor's ya gal! 

What i said on first listen -

She connects on such a personal level, her charm is unquestionable as well as her lyrical and all-round musical prowess. She understand listeners, some really amazing songs on Speak Now, Fearless was GREAT, but this is EVEN better!

New Haircut

Came back from Switzerland/France from a school trip, on the way back some of my friends created the masterpiece that is my new hairstyle. Product of peer pressure and the hypersexualisation of the black man. It'll probably last a week or so I predict, if not just three more days. Not looking forward to going completely bald though, not a good look!

Here are some pics -

It looks much better in person, have to get a good picture from the back too! Looks wonky, but it's really nice at the back.
