  1. Jamie Cullum makes me wish I could play piano, he's amazing! but at the moment I'm actually more keen on learning to play cello again, I gave up at school for some random reason and now I totally regret it! Gonna see if I can get a second hand one from somewhere and teach myself again!

  2. "I don't know where to go, I don't know what to be, I don't know how to change from being me, I don't know what to say at the end of the day, I know that I'm lost can't find my way home" or something to that effect, don't know if those are the right lyrics but sounds like that anyway - pretty good summary of my constant confusion over like EVERYTHING!

  3. ...I'm ACTUALLY OBSESSED/ADDICTED to the lostprophets album - I can't stop listening to it, it's actually just the best thing in the world!!!(well maybe except chocolate and all the other good stuff)There isn't a single song on it I don't like, I could listen forever and not get bored/tired of it - I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Ok so I know this was done when the album was released but I didnt have it yet so what is everyone elses favourite tracks from the album etc?

    I can't choose...

  4. To be perfectly honest it probably wasn't a choice made by All Saints but rather by their management (?speculation?) It happens to a lot of good music though which is unfortunate eg.....

    A Little Help From My Friends - maybe not the best version by the Beatles, outstanding version by Joe Cocker, and then Sam and Mark from Pop Idol happened - it just doesnt bear thinking about!!

    Lover You Should Have Come Over - awesome Jeff Buckley song, covered by Jamie Cullum on his new album, isn't bad, certainly very very good live, but doesn't compare to the original

    Stand By Me - Ben E King - awesome, several billion cover versions/performances - awful!

    Satisfaction -the almighty Rolling Stones, and then Britney came along to do her Pop Princess thing - just doesn't work

    My Generation - The Who - cool, Oasis - pish

    Having said that though - some covers are cool cos they put a new twist on songs and make them sound equally as good but in a new way eg...

    Frontin - RnB funky choon by Pharrel Williams turned into a jazz piece by Jamie Cullum, nice!!

    Ok I'm spent!

  5. I got this email at uni today, thought I'd pass it onto you kids in case anyone's interested. I might give it a go for a laugh and I'm rubbish at being creative.....

    "Are you able to create with words?

    A new musical experience labelled Bardy Grangle is asking for anyone with a

    talent for words to send in their poems, short stories, pieces of prose,

    lyrics etc to be used as a framework to base music too. The selected chosen

    pieces will be transformed into the musical domain, as well as the writing

    itself being heard through speech (unless the writer expresses any

    concerns).

    The end product will be put onto a professionally produced CD with the hope

    of all the piece's being performed at events around Glasgow. All work will

    be credited for.

    Please send your creations to 0107381c@student.gla.ac.uk before 4th June and

    feel free to email myself with any questions you may have.

    Thank you, Stuart J Corr.

    0107381c@student.gla.ac.uk

    If you would like to help in creating the music for the literature, please

    send me an email indicating your interest."

    Happy creating!!!

  6. Ok but what about in Glasgow? Must I pay to get into the gig and then pay for a T-shirt hence losing out on a meagre [insert entry fee]???

    Oh my god you guys should set up a T-shirt stand on Woodlands Road and attack passing students and lure them into the gig!! Heehee, twould be so amusing!
