Mercutio Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 Only a third of these women can be truly considered as 'alternative', but it's an interesting collaboration involving the queen of pop, the world's hottest female rapper, and the bad bitch from sri lanka.As with every new Madonna release, the first time you hear "Give Me All Your Luvin'", you go "Huh? What the bloody bollocks is this??"And then you watch the MTV and think "Oh my Gawd! It's AMAZING!"Which it isn't at all really but catchy enough from the mother of a teenager.Sooo addicted to Lizzy Grant AKA "just tell them I'm from Cuba" del Rey right now. Or at least the first half of the Born To Die album before the atmospherics get tedious and you start thinking if she's just back-masking Sigur Ros to cover up otherwise rather lame tracks. I'm offering 50-50 odds that she has Alainis Syndrome and sputter out once she gets over her breakup. But I love her Nancy Sinatra-esque talk-singing, even if it sounds like crap performed live on nights between Friday and Sunday.... Poor girl. Scarred for life, I swear, but maybe her SNL experience will keep her music going once wasted love loses its sting.

Mercutio Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 (edited) Oh, forgot to write about the artiste I was going to write about just now . Got distracted.I'm totally getting Adele'd out: that album's been out for what, over a year now? So let's smear her a bit, muahaha. There's a certain chanteuse who's been around for quite some time now and her voice is today suddenly being heard everywhere on the charts, despite next to nil air play for any of her music. Give you a hint: she's not MAS nor Qantas nor BA ... It's Sia, of course! And it's probably through David Guetta for whom she sang "Titanium" that she got to know Flo Rida (who also worked with Guetta on "Club Can't Handle Me" and "Where Them Girls At") to collaborate with him on "Wild Ones".But what's this got to do with Adele? Oh not much ... but here's an old track by Sia called "Breathe Me". Ms Adele, don't you think you should start paying some royalties? At least for having had ahem piano lessons from Ms Sia? I suppose the Glory must come from sharing the same Hometown... The Last Shadow Puppets got sued by Muse for doing far less with The Knights of Cydonia.

derryfawne Posted February 22, 2012 Report Share Posted February 22, 2012 The Small Faces is one of this year's Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductees. It is 1960s art-rock, something you'd enjoy if you like Beatles' Revolver. The Hall of Fame has really good inductees this year:- Guns 'n Roses: definitely the best among the 80s hair metal bands, epic rock and roll with one of the generation's best vocalist (Axl) and best guitarist (Slash)- Red Hot Chili Peppers: perhaps not revolutionary, but numero uno example for modern funk-rock at its best- Beastie Boys: the band responsible for merging hip-hop into rock- Donovan: psychedelic-folk of the 1960s, an overlooked worthy competition to Bob Dylan- Laura Nyro: very underrated female singer-songwriter, wrote some of the best songs but her songs never really hit it big until someone else covers it, hence she never get the recognition she deserves.... a definite ancestor to Tori Amos, if you listen to how she sings and plays her piano- The Small Faces/The Faces: art-rock with a cross of roots music, I don't find them that revolutionary but they are good at what they are doingI love at least 4 of the inductees (G&R, RHCP, Donovan, Laura).

derryfawne Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 While we're at it, here's a surprisingly good Ke$ha cover of Bob Dylan's song: Who knew even a dumb party girl can channel out her emotion beautifully... Ke$ha had a couple of off-pitch moments singing the song, but to be fair, it's hard to sing with perfect pitch when you're crying. Plus, Bob Dylan was not even that good a singer to begin with, so I'm not complaining. Quote “Do not take life too seriously.

derryfawne Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 This song brought a little teardrops into my eyes last night on the dancefloor.It inspires me to stay afloat in times when I'm shaken up, and Sia's strong vocal fits the message to a tee. Obviously Guetta's strongest work. Perhaps only his collaboration with Kelly Rowland's When Love Takes Over can compete with it.Anyway, Sia is a former indie musician working under trip-hop and jazz-styled pop format (well, at least before she starts working with Christina Aguilera, David Guetta, and Flo Rida, but even as of today her artistic purity remains untouched). My favorite from her early days is the piano-laden song below: Quote “Do not take life too seriously.
