Nooooo
She doesn't even sing the most important part of the chorus.
This is TRUE ARTPOP.
Amazing.
I feel kind of scared O_O
Nicely shot but I hope we don't pretend like that wasn't mundane. Really expected so much more after the hype for practically 2 years.
Predictable coming from you and the rest of the cult members that are "unimPRESSED"
Well, Kyon, tell us what you think of the message and its delivery? What did you take from her narration?

I didn't see anyone respond to this, so...
If you looked up "chill" in a dictionary you would probably find a picture of Morcheeba. Maybe. If you had a really weird dictionary. Anyway, I've been listening to them for about a decade; they've got a great discography that's absolutely worth digging into. Some classics:
The Sea
Trigger Hippie
Rome Wasn't Built in a Day
What New York Couples Fight About (with Kurt Wagner)
I Am the Spring (this is more recent, so probably not a "classic" per se, but I love it)
There was also a several-year period where the band's vocalist, Skye Edwards, separated from the band. Morcheeba itself kept making music, though; here's some of my favorite tracks with different singers at the helm:
Like a Military Coup
Living Hell (this one is amazing, I need to see whether this singer has done anything else)
Enjoy the Ride
Also, while she was away from the band, Skye released a couple of solo albums under the name Skye. I haven't heard either of them, but if you dig her voice (and I think it's impossible not to) I can't imagine you'd be steered wrong checking them out as well.
Thanks for posting, btw; I didn't know they had a new album releasing soon! I will be perched.
OmFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF it's HAPPENING
I'm confused...
Besides South Street being generally gross, what's so bad about that part of her quote?
Robin Thicke – iTunes festival review
Roundhouse, London
The only blurred line left by the end of the show is the one between Robin Thicke and a bawdy Butlins redcoat
2 out of 5
Anyone who's only recently arrived at the work of Robin Thicke as a result of his recent global No 1, Blurred Lines – seven albums into his career – is, it is averred, in for a treat. "Are you ready for the Experience?" bellows his keyboard player before the singer takes the stage. As it turns out, the Experience is full of surprises, not all of them pleasant. The first is Thicke's appearance: with his aviator sunglasses, neatly trimmed hair, dazzling teeth and unbuttoned white shirt, he looks – from a distance, at least – not unlike Simon Cowell.
In addition, if you think that, whatever its considerable musical merits, the Blurred Lines refrain of "you know you want it" is, at best, a bit sleazy for its own good, you only know the half of it. On stage, what Thicke offers is a weird combination of sleaze and cheesy schmaltz.
On the one hand, there are the lyrics to Give It 2 U – "I've got a big dick for you," he sings while patting his crotch, as if to clarify that said big dick isn't sprouting out of his elbow – and his habit of descending into the crowd so that adoring females may paw him. On the other, he ends songs by making gun shapes with his hands and miming blowing smoke off them, performs choreographed routines with his dancers involving much flamboyant clapping of hands, and indulges in between-song banter so oily you fear for the safety of any passing seabirds. When he pretends to machine-gun the audience, you can't help but think of Alan Partridge doing the same thing as he enters the set of Knowing Me, Knowing You. The cumulative effect is like watching a Butlin's redcoat with an erection.
Thicke can certainly sing, and his material skips from pounding house beats decorated with rock guitars to Michael Jacksonish ballads, to loverman slow jams. What he doesn't have is another song as naggingly undeniable as Blurred Lines. Live, he makes vaporous songs seem more vaporous still, thanks to his insistence on dragging them out with extempore vocals: his penchant for improvising would have the Grateful Dead urging him to get a move on.
Still, listening to him sing is infinitely preferable to listening to him talk. "Don't give up on your dreams, because dreams come true – I'm living proof of that," he attests. "I want to thank all my fans. Old fans. New fans. And those of you who aren't fans yet. Hopefully you will be one day." Pause, sincere grin. "I love you all."
I loved this, though I wonder how much flak she'll get from non-fans for coming off as "pretentious" like the flak Gaga always seems to get.
Madonna and Gaga need to collaborate already; they have such similar passions. "Art For Freedom" sounds like a Gaga mantra verbatim. Can you imagine the imagery they could come up with? Two strong, expressive females fighting for art in a black-in-white tableau... Lordt I couldn't handle.
But back to Madonna, I love this look on her. Very MDNA, and I wouldn't mind if she kept this look going into her next era, assuming there will be one. It's very her. Futuristic S&M cougar realness.

He's referring to that episode years ago where Sean tied her up and beat her and how seeing them together like that is weird.
I'm surprised you don't know about this!
I was joking lmao. She probably was as high as a kite :lolI don't really follow Sky so I'm not familiar that this was her schtick. >_>

You mean besides the fact that the entire process of choosing the song was a massive promo campaign/stunt?Dark Horse outselling Work Bitch...

This dog-faced bitch was the person beefing with Rihanna yesterday. I had nothing to add, I just wanted to drag this ugly cunt for filth.
Massive? Choosing a song online during a limited period of time is a massive promo campaign? It seemed very low key to me.You mean besides the fact that the entire process of choosing the song was a massive promo campaign/stunt?
