Okay so Midnight city by M83 is a pretty popular song I know. It's kind of one of those alternative songs that actually becomes popular and often even non-alt. fans know and like. And I can understand why considering it's like one of my favorites. Also the music video is pretty cool although I don't really understand it.
So M83 it a French electronic band formed in 2001 and named after the spiral galaxy Messier 83. Since then the band had released a few albums, none of which attracted much attention until their this song from their album Hurry Up, We're Dreaming. (2011).
Well I'm sick... Still. Being sick really is a bother. My temperature is back to normal ( for now ) and I'm left with an average cold and the headache I've had for the past four days. So I dont really have that much to say other than being sick sucks. That is all.
Hey there blonde here. So today I've been sick. Fever and headache and such. I had plans to do science fair experiments and finish an English project and write poetry about rocks ( for extra credit ). I have been going in and out of feeling fine ( 98.6 degrees) to feeling absolutely terrible (101.5). I feel better now, but not really up to it. I've been sitting in my bedroom watching a 'Merlin' marathon on Netflix since 6:00 this morning. So this is my last day of break and of course I am sick.
I always seem to get sick over holiday, almost every holiday. Like winter break in the fifth grade. At our holiday concert I suddenly became uncomfortable in my chair for orcestra. After getting off stage and right before our chorus portion I got my temperature taken, 104 degrees. I ended up going onstage and singing a terrible solo from Oliver!. I was sick for a long time that break. So that's all I have to say for now so au revoir!
Hey, it's the brunette here! So it's technically the blonde's day but today she's sick :( so instead I'll be filling in for her.
Okay, so it's alternative week! This is both of our favorite genres! And I cannot wait until my song tomorrow! But today Lillian has asked for me to talk about her song pick.
The song 'sixpack' was written by the two-peice band consisting of brothers Jake and Jamin Orrall from Nashville, Tenesse. While the band started in 2001, sixpack is off of their newest album, Hypnotic Nights (2012).
The song has a rock inspired rhythm and summer inspired melodies and lyrics, which is only fitting considering the song's album was released in mid July. The music video is also inspired by summer, which only reminds me of how much I miss it.
It's alternative week ( our favorite genre ) so were pretty excited I share our favorite songs from this genre! And tomorrow I (the blonde) am going to kick it off with a newer release from last summer. So everyone get pumped for Alt. music galore!
Hey there blonde here, we haven't been keeping with our blog for a while and so were trying hard now to keep up with it. So I haven't done a schpiel for quite a while... And here it is. Today is Saturday tomorrow is Sunday, then the next day is Monday. Monday both the brunette and I go back to school! Well maybe that just deserved a period instead of an exclamation point. But anyways it's school again. Most people where we live are already back in school and getting tests and more projects. Now that's what I'm going to talk about for a sec. Projects. Why are we assigned projects after the fifth grade. Half of the population of middle/high schoolers HATE projects. We procrastinate then on the final weekend rush through what we've been trying to accomplish for the past three weeks... So in this final weekend before going back to school I must still complete an English project and science fair. I really don't mind the written portion but the crafty part is what gets me. I like crafts and such, but projects that require so many intricate arty parts I can't handle it.
So that was my schpiel on projects.
Also yesterday was the day ( January 4th 2013 ) that Marty McFly traveled to the future to. And 2013 is nothing like in the movie. Thought that would boggle your mind so that is all for today!
Adios amigos
Sorry for not keeping up with the song of the days. But anyways, it's the brunette with the first post of 2013!
For the last rock song for this week, I have chosen Jejune Stars by Bright Eyes. I don't actually know whether this is alternative or rock-so I'm just going to call it alternative-rock and say that it's okay to put into this week's theme.
The band American band Bright Eyes was formed in 1995 by singer/songwriter and guitarist Conor Oberst, and the band basically has covered most genres over time. This particular song is from their most recent album The People's Key (2011). And although my favorite from the album is not the most popular, so if that's the kind of music you like you should check out the whole album!
