Song Of The Week: Jake Bugg - Country Song

Hello party people. Just here to hit you up with another song of the week. Don't accept immitations some other blogs have decided to pinch this feature and also the very song I was planning to use last week. 

None the less this is were the really good music is at. 

This weeks little gem I by a guy called Jake Bugg for Notingham. The keen ear'd (is that even a thing?) will recongnise this track from an advert playing in the UK for IPA beer. I've look around to hear more from Jake but there doesn't seem to be that much out there but if you head over to JakeBugg.com you can see his stuff and even get some free downloads. I highly recomend you take a look arround he has a very distintive sound. When I searched for the full music video I was once again caught out on my expectation. I expected to see a 30 something guy with a flat cap and beared and what we got was, well, not that he's more like Oasis mixed with Beatles and plenty of Bob Dillan thrown in  there for good measure. 

Everytime this advert comes on the TV the music makes me want to be in the pub depicted in the video of friends and family all getting a long laughing and joking without a care in the world. Basically what life about. 

Hope you like it, let me know what you think bellow

Song of the Week - New York by Snow Patrol

Snow Patrol not too long ago release their latest album Fallen Empires and if you are Snow Patrol fan you wont be disappointed. Back in January me and Lotti finial ticked a long awaited item of our bucket list and saw Snow Patrol live during there tour stopping off at the Liverpool Echo area. The band, thankfully, lived up to all my expectations which were very high! The gig will go down as one to remember although i'm certain it will not be the last time we see them live. 

As with most albums there were a few song that instantly caught my attention right from the 1st time of playing it. One of which was a song call 'New York' and a few days ago the official video was launch so here it is. Have a look and see what you think. For me this song is exactly why SP are in my top 3 bands they somehow manage to repeated create haunting and captivating music and lyrics and really feel genuine and original. Hope you like it enjoy...

Music thats been coming in my earlobs

Snow Patrol - This Isn't Everything You Are

Following on from the amazing Called out in the Dark This is the video for there nex single to be release. I've only listened twice and I'm hooked! Based on these 2 tracks allone I will be buying the new ablum Fallen Empires when it realises 12th Novemeber. 

Christina Perri - Jar of Hearts Official Video

I know this is been out a while, just for reference I called this one when I 1st heard it a while back. Still can't get it out my head great track. 

Charlene Soraia - 'Wherever You Will Go'

Reconise this song? It's The Calling man! You might has heard this on already on the TV, it's beeing used in an ad for Twinings Tea. Scott Mills (BBC Radio 1) played the full version earlier in the week, I think its pritty good. What do you think? Rather we stick to the original version?

I'm hoping to do a full ISO post but think it's gonna be quiet time consuming. Watch this space

T'internet Round up - Freddy is back, Super Gran to the rescue and pig Ignorant Brits

Word up boy's & girls, here's a collection of thing from around the internet that have caught my attention this week

The search for Freddy Mercury is over people!

Marc Martel is Freddy Mercury. Speaking as a massive Queen fan I loved this, went straight to itunes and put on the greatest hits :)

Super Gran stops robbery

This isn't the 1st time I've seen or even shared this video but it's one I had forgotten about until I watched it on Rude Tube. This is both funny awesome on so many levels. The way she come running down the street to sort them out is legendary. Also notice how there are at least x2 male shop assistants crapping their pants inside who offer no help when super gran comes to the rescue. Then we have classic bumble as the scum bags try to get away on hair dryers with wheel and fails miserably tipping the bike onto the deck. Like I said the lady is awesome on so many levels. 

Danny Macaskill - Industrial Revolutions

These types of video are exactly why I love the tinternet so much! Here's a guy how takes his skill to a whole new level whilst making it look effortless! Where else would I see this stuff!? Also from a photography/videography point of view I love how this was shot. The relaxed and down to earth tone of the video given from the DSLR and the location of the shoot, along with smooth angels and playful soundtrack, simply brilliant. If you enjoy this I tend to Google lots of free running videos too, Maybe i'll share some of my fav's next week. Ops just realised I already posted this video. Oh well I like it that much I'll leave it. 

Coach Trip Fight

Think I'm late to the part on this one but I was so applaud when I saw this video on the new Jonathan Ross show (love it btw) I had to post the video to show the world just how ugly ignorance can be. 

Ads - T-Mobile Parking Ticket

TV ads are great, they are mini pecices of art that I think are very often over looked. Some of them I really do enjoy in their own right regardless of what they are selling. Here's one of my fav video currently running on UK TV for T-Mobile. So funny.

Ads- Yeo Valley (X-factor editition)

Was about to tie a bow on this post and call it a wrap then this little gem caught my eye during the X-factor ad break (Before you ask no I wasn't watching).
