Entry: Ear Candy Tuesday, March 20, 2007



Hmmm… It's been a while since I wrote something of the pop culture variety. When it comes to pop I am such a whore! I consume everything from Britney's madness (I still love her) to Lindsay's hideous new hair color. Anyway, what has been preoccupying my thoughts is the History Boys. I can't seem to get over that movie. They should make sequels and make it to a big franchise or whatever.

The other day I was at Makati. Had a meeting with the big boss (I'm still not done writing that damn book). Fast forward… I went shopping! Got new stuffs from my fave artists and some DVDs.

Brand new shit

Mika is the new genius in pop music. This sexually ambiguous "boy" is creating a much-deserved hype in UK and Europe as a whole. I have to say that Life in a Cartoon Motion is one of the best albums I've listened to this year. Very original. Very flamboyant. Very camp. Fucking brilliant!

The album's all killer and no fillers. I recommend that you all should go buy Mika for he is the ultimate shit in pop.

Mp3: Mika – Billy Brown

Classic shit

Kylie is god. I already have this but I just have to have the Showgirl edition. This features most of god's ultimate hits. This is great for walking or jogging or while putting your make up on.

Mp3: Kylie – Please Stay

Europop shit

Popjustice was all over this girl duo last year. I've Limewired some of their stuff and they're quite good. Well, not Lo-Fi-Fnk good but good enough to justify their covering the The Pet Shop Boys. Most cover bands tend to be rubbish (think A-Teen's first album) but the girls made the material sound modern and party ready.

This is pure Europop. I would recommend this to anyone. Oh… and forget about taTu.

Mp3: West End Girls – Domino Dancing

Pseudo-rock shit

The boys are back with a vengeance. They took on a new sound and style but it all turned out fine. Comparing it to their critically acclaimed debut, the new stuff is very different. Still, all the songs are party friendly and worthy to play in high volume to both annoy and amuse your neighbors. No sophomore slump here.

Mp3: The Killers – This River is Wild

Here are some of the DVD's I got. I only watched the History Boys though. Been quite busy. Hmmm… there's always tonight. Hehe.
