Great songs: Placebo - Every you Every me

This one really takes me back to around 2000. Amazing times and amazing song. You realized you have listened to a song a lot when you realize you know all the lyrics :) hehe

Great Commercials: Made by Norway - Aker [eng. subtitles]

This is one of the most beautiful commercials I have seen on tv ever. It so feel me proud to be Norwegian. I am not of a "seaworker" but I certainly can relate to the struggles against weather and the feelilng you have of almost not surviving weather in Norway. I love how it's rugged and we struggle, but we still love it so much. Reminds me a bit of walking in a snowstorm last winter to go to the local shop to buy some food so I could survive. Wonderful that someone gave it English subtitles. Amazing poem/song and very very Norwegian.

First Train Home (immi's party version)

This is so much better than the official one. I felt exactly the same as ImmI did, that it was cold and detached. This is great :) The amazing singer, songwriter and producer is now also a director. I love this woman :)

Great covers: kate nash - fluorescent adolescent

Another great cover from Live Lounge. Well done, Kate. That Alex is singing really fast and this is even faster than usual. Very cool cover :)

Great covers: You Me At Six - Poker Face - Live Lounge

WOW! Suddenly Poker Face sounds good. I think I need to check out the other stuff of You Me At Six now :)

Great Covers: Stereophonics - Best Of You (Foo Fighters) - Live Lounge

Kelly Jones has one of the greatest voices I know and Dave Grohl writes some of the best songs around. Very very clever and good fusion of the two people. Also quite interesting that this is filmed in Stereophonics hometown of Cwmaman in Wales. :) I love the Live Lounge series.. So many good things have come out of that radio program. And most of all so many cool covers :)

Good songs: The Last Shadow Puppets - The Age Of The Understatement

This one has some kind of old American cowboy movie to it and the video is very the cold war Russia. Amazing stuff that makes you jump around and sing along. I especially love how the refrain comes in the end... The song hits a little climatic moment there. Great stuff and a unique style!

New music: White Lies - To Lose My Life

Why oh why haven't I checked out White Lies until now. It's a pure mystery too me. I think you will see more of them around me in the future! Surprised that I like this music? Probably not ;) Time to sleep now, but it was good to devote the soul to some good music in the night and knowing that I have the day off tomorrow:)

Celebrity blogs: Arctic Monkeys: The view from... The Laundry Room

Lovely absurd blog these guys are keeping. This is a very good one. For more check out their Youtube site.. This also comes from this site :)

The View From Sean's House Party

This is just plain crazy! And I love that I can blog directly from YouTube now :D

New video: Cornerstone - Arctic Monkeys

This is quite frankly one of the greatest new things I have seen or heard in a long long time. I just have to watch it for the 5th time before I go to sleep. Amazing video idea, amazing tune, amazing lyrics and charming man. Very real somehow. Here.
