I think the concept is interesting, and she is challenging the fact that birth is such a big deal for most women, or at least exhausting. For her originality I applaud her. However, I do think it's a bit extreme. I mean, i'm pro-abortion, but this is way OTT. maybe just one baby? I don't know. I suppose it depends when she has the abortion. If it's really early it's not as bad I guess... I don't know. The crazed art side of me loves it, but my ethical side is being really shocked.

Placebo. *leaves* --- Currently listening to Sia - The Girl You Lost To Cocaine (Stonebridge Radio Edit) She needs more recognition here.

^^ It's better when a non-cliched lyric relates to you. ---- Listening to Hercules & Love Affair's ST album. Love it.

Planet Terror was one of the funniest films I've ever seen. I mean it's meant to be tongue-in-cheek but my friend and I's humour just made it so funny.

I love how Lucinda could be the lead singer of a joke band, since she dresses sp jokily. TBH, I don't think any of the three should have gone (Helene should have- wtf was putting Lucinda in charge of technology?!), but maybe Simon yeah. he was too arrogant anyway.

I could kill someone with a gun. Knife too, but I dislike the idea of it, as i've heard what it's like, as you feel like you take their soul or something. Plus more drawn out and gruesome. I'm VERY selfish, in the literal sense of the word. I'm not about to let some bastard get me, if i'm wielding a gun. Fuck them. That being said, i'm still a very active protestor against guns. Aptly, it's the 1st anniversary of the greatest school massacre in the US, Virgina Tech Massacre.

Well you prefer people having an expressing life through their hair. I hate people with short hair for their entire life.

Listening to Special D - Come With Me. Inside of me, there's a tiny tiny chav, thet just wants to be loved. Thankfull many years of private schooling and good music has crushed him into almost nothing.

On another site me and some people here frequent, I have massive rants against guns. "It's not guns that kill people, it's people!" - fuck that. I wonder why there's so many school killings in the US? - Guns. I wonder why the murder rate is so high in the Us? - Guns. I wanted to slap the senator woman who legalised the carrying of arms on campus in some US state. You can tell in an arguement, it'll get heated, and someone'll dive into their bag, and the other person will grab their gun and shoot instinctively, without realising the now dead person wasn't even reaching for a gun. Guns are a plague, but unfortunatly the US caught it and didn't bother to get treated. Nice one. GUNS For The Loss. Guns are tools for killing. If you say "But people would find other ways to kill people!"m, stfu. A knife-wielding person holding up a class is hardly going to do much damage/any at all, if played right, but a gun allows the person to walk in, killing anyone he/she wants at their own leisure. To add; Let the only people to have guns be the army. / VERY high up policeman in extreme cases.

Though it's lost it's shine due to overplaying etc, it's indeed an amazing song. I was literally addicted to Tori for about 6 months (see my last.fm), but now I've finally freed myself. She's still one of my favourite artists, but Bjork pips her to the post, and PJ Harvey is just behind her. That aid, those are just solo females...I never really tend to compare different type of act. Placebo is pretty high up, as is Garbage and Goldfrapp. I have to say, I've recently got into people who I always sort of knew were good, but it felt cliche to listen to, like David Bowie. How wrong I was. Love The Rise...From Mars! Ramones, too are good, but his voice grates after a while, as he actually can't sing.

Le Fil isn't a cappella. There is use of instruments. It's mostly a cappella, however, using voices as instruments, similar, but less ingenious, to Medulla by Bjork. Is the note that runs throughout Le Fil vocal, and one a loop, or artificial?

Oh god... He was such a big part of my childhood, as I loved SmArt. God, I hate shit.

Listening to Pretty Hate Machine by NIN. I love how it's so terribly 80's, yet good.
-
It probably is, to be honest. It's not a huge deciding factor though. I love Ta Doleur and others by Camille, but it seems very samey due to the language barrier. However, I remember that Suerte is better than Whenever, Wherever by Shakira (same song, different language).

*looks at his last.fm* Along with PJ Harvey, they rule the clitrock universe. But Tori's music is far more human, fallible, which is great. I LOVE her. Bjork, though I can't listen to her non-stop like I can Tori, produces music that just evokes something otherworldly. She's much more a force of nature, both in musical terms and her actual self. While I watched her dance on stage to Hunter, I was thinking, This is so different to Tori, who is relatively stiff, and the fact Bjork was rampaging around, waving her hair around was such a constrast to recent Tori perfromances, with the emotionless wigs. I think Tori will always regin in plays on my last.fm, but Bjork is much more powerful than her, but in secret, to me. I wouldn't leave a Tori show thinking it was the best night of my life, I don't think, especially since her voice has deteriorated so much recently. I really can't stand some of the live tracks I have in her tepid "new" moan. The moan replaces some of the best notes in the originals. [/end rant against Tori, even though I adore her] And Camille is nowhere near any of the aforementioned artists, or Kate Bush. She's interesting, but frankly, I can't judge if they connect with me as they're in French, and they aren't affecting enough to transcend the language barrier. I'd actually add Joanna Newsom to the 3 I mentioned were the best, but she needs more material for me to judge upon. ------- ------ @ Haggis, same here! My mum used to play it, and whenever it comes on my iTunes, I know most of the words! What I actually like about Shania ia that the two albums we have 'Come on over" and "UP!" are recorded really well. Her voice is so clear. I mean it's easy-listenng, guilty pleasures, but she's got some good songs. ----- ---- Currently listening to Pretty.Odd by PATD, again. It's not bad at all, the only thing is that it's so overblown that tracks don't stand out as much. Best Songs after 6-7 listens; Pas De Cheval Mad As Rabbits That Green Gentleman Northern Downpour

I love. It's like you have the mutant ability to change your hair colour based on the nearest classical element, thereby gaining control over the respective elemental force. Easily swimming up waterfalls.

Even so, I prefer her. I wish she just got her wish, and was accepted into the pantheon of the greek gods. She's been trying long enough. I have the same opinion as Chair, I just didn't write it down. I've been infatuated with her music for 3 years now, and I didn't realise until last night that I knew all the words to every song she played (even the made-up langauge bits). I know it's massively elitist, or whatever, but it feels like people who don't get her are missing out on one of life's truths. But interestingly, I can see why people wouldn't get her. If i (a MASSIVE Bjorkphile) take a step back and listen to it as background music, it sounds bit like "....ok right, its not bad, but yeah". But when it clicks, it adds to your brain. Like adds a new opinion on life to a stagnant repertoire. I realised last night that Bjork would beat Tori Amos in a fight without even trying. [/end]

Cosi Actual film; ?/10, probably 5/10 Our interpretation; 10/10 My friends and I just laughed and chatted through the whole film, inventing running jokes as we went. It finished and we realised we didn't know any of the characters names, for the jokes.

Seeing Bjork last night has made me be able to die happy. Seriously. She is beyond anything else musically to me. If I had to say I worship anything as a god/deity, it'd be her music. It was the greatest night of my life, and probab ly the best thing i'll ever see. She played ALL my favourite songs, even Cover Me, a secret favourite of mine, and kept looking right at me (I was at the front), so I felt a real connection. Plus the fact that the end was so rave-ish I died. Somebody please fight Hyper-Ballad/Freak mash, Pluto, then Declare Independance.

Hmmmm...I think the Marilyn Monroe look was good, and it worked well for that album. Back To Basics, though it's a massive album, feels far more solid, with less filler, or a least better filler. The singles from Stripped are better though. I've not listened to Stripped in ages.
-
I like that song, for a chart darling.

Nah. Wonderful Life and Early Winter are the best on the album, and are the quality of LAMB, but wouldn't fit in. As for more fun tracks, Sweet Escape, Yummy and Now That You Got It 9Single remix) are ok. ----- Be Your Own Pet; The Kelly Affair LISTEN!
-
I know. I was scared some songs wouldn't reel in the masses though. Plus I think I got told off for posting Pagan Poetry on here, despite it being the most affecting video i've ever seen (except for AIFOL...what's the best video in your opinion?).
