Multi-lingual pop songs (Feb 11 2005 22:24 GMT) - On the Chris Moyles radio show this morning, the "gang" riffed on that classic early-90s two-albums-wonder Martika, and played a Japanese version of Love ... Thy Will Be Done. And howled at Martika singing Japanese lyrics with an English chorus, as if this was typical of the oddity of Japan. Except ... I'm pretty much certain that outside of English-speaking countries, an awful lot of the native pop does incorporate English and other multiple languages into songs. |

Oh for heavens' sake... (Feb 11 2005 22:24 GMT) - Oh for heavens' sake. BBC NEWS | Blogging 'a paedophile's dream' says a forensic psychologist adviser to the Scottish parliament. What next? Banning pens and paper on the grounds that if children write things, it might find its way over to that nasty child catcher? How on earth did paedophiles become such a bogeyman in today's society? |

End of the world ... time for a music video (Feb 11 2005 22:24 GMT) - It's the end of the world ... so it's time for Snow Patrol to do the video to that rather fabby song, Chocolate. They say it's all about madness, but I beg to differ. Certainly, it's much better than Ultravox's video on the same theme, with the added poignancy of some 9/11-esque imagery. Also pays "homage" (ie it rips off) to Don McKellar's great film Last Night. |

That Tsunami relief concert... (Feb 11 2005 22:24 GMT) - Since I spent 14 hours yesterday mostly monitoring/watching the Tsunami Relief Concert to provide on-demand broadband video clips (with my colleagues of course), I thought I might as well give my knee-jerk reactions of the artistes involved. Although of course I COULD HAVE BEEN THERE INSTEAD, if it wasn't for my cursed multi-skilling abilities. Rant to come. Katharine Jenkins - nice voice, but the songs seemed a bit too bland and were too anthemic at this early stage in the proceedings. Of course, at one point I shouted across the office: |

A 14-hour work day... (Feb 11 2005 22:24 GMT) - Well, it was a 14-hour workday producing on-demand broadband video clips from the Tsunami Relief Concert - and aside from the fact I've still got a glowing wristband on that would have allowed me backstage access throughout the entire gig and I had to babysit a video encoder instead - it was good fulfilling fun. Pumping out 8 hours of video content, checking it for swearing gives one a huge sense of achievement. Although not being able to spot when Badly Drawn Boy repeats a song twice is not one of my music appreciation highlights. |
