This came up randomly on my i-pod the other day. So genuinely impressed :o

It was my 1st time hearing it and being in a little bit of absent-mindedness I expected a "typical" Beatles song.

 

*I was wrong*

 

 

The fact that I was alone, walking along a dark street gave it so much more impact.

Gloria - Patti Smith

 

 

 

You're pierced by the directness of the opening line. Then you're swept along for a whole 6 minutes by its building energy. It's one of those rare times when someone bothers to do conventional music well; it doesn't stray from what we're used to, but still manages to shock and stun.

And by shock you mean invent the weirdest way of saying name and me at around 3:00?

Congratulations for making the most inane comment possible.

 

It's probably just meh-hay but I could nay-hame a few other issues.

Seen the others in the same collection, Moogle? :)

 

I've seen a few. None have been as good as A Glorious Dawn though.

Commander - Kelly Rowland

 

 

I think this is one of the greatest pop performances of all time. It's so direct. It's so powerful. It's so unassuming, but so confident in its own abilities.

 

"No fear, no doubt, I'll provide the answer"

 

Normally I'd maintain that the likes of David Guetta would detract, but it almost feels like Kelly's said "Get me someone to play a track. I need to sing this song."

 

Kelly Rowland periodically appears from the darkness and unleashes a Solar Beam, and then she shrinks back into the shadows, with a smile playing across her lips, knowing she is the only one who would dare fight Beyonce in a duel.

It just feels so layered, so unpredictable. I...somehow am in love with this song. The beginning :love: mmm mm mm mmm mm mmm mm

 

How she changes the chorus to a more powerful "happiness" by the end is lovely :)

 

8.0/10

This song is genius. :grin:

 

It speaks to me on a level that no other song ever has or ever will. It's like I've been in a coma for 20 years and I've just woken up with a raging hard on that's trying to tell the world that "I'VE GOT TO HAVE CEREAL!".

 

There is no going back for me. I have made it.

 

By the time she gets to the part where she has to decide where she wants to sit in the car I'm almost in tears. You can see the hidden textures in her eyes that are saying to me that I no longer want to feel this way. HOLD ME CLOSE.

 

Then after an intense 2 seconds it fades out to the next scene showing us that she is content with her life. In her car. blissful. It's at this point I lose myself fully and just let the lyrics wash over me like a miniature walrus thrashing about in a bidet.

 

I fall onto the tips of my elbows weeping tears from every orifice but then I remember that she's by my side and that everything will be wholesome because It's Friday!

Looks more like David Guetta wrote the song and got Kelly to sing it.

 

Writer(s) David Guetta, Sandy Wilhelm, Richard Butler, Jr.

Bonaparte - Too Much

 

 

Hedonism! Yes. While this song is incredibly simple and annoying I find it addictive. They'll be in Cologne next month and I want to see them so badly, but no one - seriously no one - I know thinks Bonaparte is good. Fucking idiots.

I might even go to the gig by myself.

 

Too Much/10

 

Bonaparte - Computer In Love

 

 

Great lyrics. Amazing video. I love this tune. Computer watching you, computer in love.

I'm your glory-hole to the universe.

 

Zero One One Zero One One One/10

 

Edit: Something related to the world ending bla

 

Bonaparte - Blow It Up
