Meep’s Musings

Newest discovery: Hard-Fi with their albums “Once Upon A Time In The West” and debut CD “Stars of CCTV” respectively. Recommended listens are “Suburban Knights”, “Tonight”, “Little Angel” and “Hard To Beat”, “Move On Now” and “Living for the Weekend”. Enjoy!

There has been a lot of speculation over the theme song for the latest Bond movie “Quantum Of Solace” (read my review…), and this was finally revealed to be it: Jack White & Alicia Keys with “Another Way To Die”.

I am delighted to have just found James Morrison’s new album “Songs For You, Truths For Me” on deezer. His debut “Undiscovered” is one of my favourite albums ever, and from what I could gather via a quick skip-through, this one sounds just as good if not even better:

I have already introduced you to “Love Song” by Sara Bareilles but it didn’t occur to me to check out her whole album called “Little voice” until recently. Big mistake! What have I missed – a well-crafted, catchy, beautifully arranged and sung album. So you will be enlightened earlier: listen to “Little voice” and be [...]

Japanes Feel Good Pop from Pop Levi: “Dita Dimone”. Enjoy!

I have found the perfect soundtrack for this summer: Sam Sparro of “Black is Gold” fame. Check out the whole, self-entitled album and get ready to dance, chill and enjoy! I particularly like “21st Century Life”, “Waiting For Time”, “Cut Me Loose”, “Sick” and “Hot Mess”.

Newest ohrwurm: “Fool for Love” by Das Pop. Leiden kann so schön sein!
Das Pop – Fool For Love (SebastiAn Remix)

A little bit of Keane, a little bit of Queen, a little bit of fireworks – et voilà, Muse with “Starlight”!

Classic case of “Which one’s which in the Corrs?”:

I’m ashamed to be a fan of the Corrs. Thank you Jim Corr for that!
Lately, there hasn’t been much news of the Corrs, except about the odd pregnancy or solo album. Now however, Jim Corr felt obliged to break the silence to appear on Matt Cooper’s “The Last Word” radio show to give his opinion [...]

The 2008 Eurovision Song Contest is over. Time for the recap of the big finale from Belgrade!

My (kinda) namesake from Norway makes sweet electro pop of the addictive kind. Check out her hits “Heartbeat” and new single “I Know Your Girlfriend Hates Me” below:

Head over to www.coldplay.com and download the first single of the upcoming album “Viva La Vida or Death And All His Friends” called “Violet Hill” for free. You better hurry though because it’s only available for a week. If the single is any indication, it’s going to be a fantastic album – I’m looking forward [...]

I have recently watched “La Reine Margot”(Queen Margot) which I can only recommend to anyone into long, bloody costume dramas. And also to fans of Isabelle Adjani, who looks like Snow White re-incarnate: long black hair, blue eyes, red lips and pale skin. Here’s the proof:

Or something a bit more clever . Anyway, Duffy is begging for Mercy, and Madcon are just “Beggin” – they are so desperate, they don’t even have time for proper spelling ;p. What they *do* have time for though is an extremely groovy song: I’ll bet you anything you start nodding your head to [...]
