2NE1 - Try to follow me

What the f*ck did I just watch?? (part.2)

Actually I wanted to talk about this mv like ages ago, but I got sidetracked by the mess that was Lady Gaga's new videoclip over here.

Lady Gaga , you can learn one or two tricks from this one:

2NE1== Extreme fierceness!

Fashion wise

The girls of 2NE1 are just out there!!! While Lady Gaga and Rihanna wears a lot of creative stuff, most of it is custom made or just haute couture and I can only dream about it.
I think Park Bom  might be wearing an Alexander McQueen dress here but most of the time the girls from 2NE1  wear affordable clothes. Even if the probability that the item's sold out is very high, I still have my eyes set on the Star Wars cap that Sandara Park is wearing below

I now leave you with my favorites moments (images heavy, watch out!)

SHINee - Get Down feat. f(x) Luna

From left to right Onew (leader-vocals), Taemin (dance), Key (versatile), Jonghyun (main vocal), Minho (rap). Onew looks bothered on this pic lol.

I got first introduced to SHINee when they came to visit 2PM on Idol Show Season 3... At that time I thought they looked very young, with this very preppy-cute boy band image.
That was almost one year ago...
They have since released a mini-album : 2009, Year of us and with Get Down, I think the boys nailed their transition into what they've been hoping to turn to, that is a "man's" band - opposed to a boy band.
With a vibe that reminds me of old school hip-hop and the guys going hard on it, I couldn't believe I was listening to SHINee!! I didn't recognize them!!!
We're far from the romantic ballad Replay - Noona is pretty from one year ago!
Hopefully they'll continue in this direction [and Taemin will grow up]

손담비 (Son Dam Bi) - 미쳤어 (Crazy)

Son Dam Bi is not your typical k-pop idol.
She became popular after someone uploaded a video of her dancing on the web and was quickly dubbed the female Rain of Korea.

I think what I like most about this song is the fact that it is produced by Brave Sounds, who are also  behind some of U-Kiss songs, but also her trademark dance move in the video,the head wave (by Daesung in the gif below), is simply just too addictive.

The Knife In Collaboration with Mt. Sims and Planningtorock - Colouring of Pigeons

I've recently talked about the Knife, well... Excuse me, I should say half of the Knife or Fever Ray, when I reviewed last.fm top 40 of the year, last December. I read some weeks ago that the band were working on an opera based off Charles Darwin's life and work... I was really intrigued and because I told myself that I would try more of them, I decided to give it a listen...

The Knife In Collaboration with Mt. Sims and Planningtorock - Colouring of Pigeons
I wouldn't be able to tell if it really fits the theme but the music and the voice of the main singer are quite enchanting and succeed in making you forgetting the track is 11mn after all.
I've been meaning to publish the song but I forgot until I saw yesterday that the Knife released digitally the whole opera on their website - we will have to wait till next month for a audio release.
That just means that if you're - like me -willing to try more of it, you know where to go! I'll be sure to give a listen to the album as I was really looking forward to the final project.

Update: I listened to it and I believe that opera is really not my cup of tea... I didn't enjoy this album so far... I'll give it another try for sure.

Animal Collective - Winters Love

I finally found the occasion to try some new Animal Collective!!! A guy posted this song on a forum as the perfect song to listen to while studying... I always wanted to try something new from Animal Collective... And I fell in love.
Animal Collective - Winters Love

Regina Spektor on the (500) Days of summer OST

I just love her voice and style. It kinda remind me of Ingrid Michaelson sometimes too.
I don't know which one, out of Us or Hero, I like the most... Maybe Us because I feel Hero is too short... At the end it leaves me waiting for more.

And it's contagious

And it's contagious

And it's contagious

And it's contagious

Brown Eyed Girls - Abracadabra

이러다 미쳐 내가 여리여리 착하던 그런 내가
너 때문에 돌아 내가 독한 나로 변해 내가

I used to be nice, soft and tender
but if I keep going crazy like this
you’ll change me into something bad

Sexy moves, sexy outfits, upbeat tempo, and catchy melody.
I know I'm late (been released since july 2009) but I like it!

Little Boots - Stuck on repeat

You got me stuck on repeat

And I just can't seem to break free

Lily Chou Chou

@song

あなたに会う喜び　あなたに会う切なさより苦しいのは
まだ私の心の中に　空虚な石が潜むから

Meeting you fills me with joy
Meeting you leaves me with a heavy heart
But it’s the joy that hurts me more
Because there, within my heart, there still lies a hollow stone.

@hetoimasia

I feel like dying

I am a prisoner locked up behind Xanax bars
I have just boarded a plane without a pilot

me rappelle étrangement

Aux enfants de la chance
Qui n'ont jamais connu les transes
Des shoots et du shit
Je dirai en substance
Ceci

"Best I ever had"

Ma dernière obsession a fait un long chemin.

Jugez par vous même.

C'est une chanson bete mais touchante, surtout si elle t'es destinée.
Non?

I dig!
