Then I remember iBored! Do you remember iBored?..didnt think so. Anyway! I remember it and as Im listening to the new Coldplay album I thought why not post something about it. Here it goes:<br /><br />On 12th June Coldplay released their 4th studio album intitled " Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends". Life and Death are the main themes of this album as you probably wouldve guessed. In May they released the first 2 singles off the album "<span style="font-weight: bold;">Viva la Vida</span>" and "<span style="font-weight: bold;">Violet Hill</span>"<br /><br />"<span style="font-weight: bold;">Life in Technicolour</span>" is the brilliant instrumental opener of the album. It it powerful, sends out the vibe of the whole album and you kind of wish it was a full song with vocals. 9/10<br /><br />"At night they would go walking ‘till the breaking of the day, The morning is for sleepin Through the dark streets they go searching to see God in their own way, Save the nighttime for your weeping…" how cool are these lyrics? I absolutely adore them. These are the lyrics that <span style="font-weight: bold;">Cemeteries of London</span> starts off with. 10/10<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Lost!</span> - Lost? was released before the album came out as a piano acoustic song and I thought the album version of this songs couldnt be better. And..I was right. Sort of. Its just that on the album its so different than anything Coldplay has ever done and it has surprised me too! Its up there with The Scientist and Fix you 10/10<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">"42" </span>- THAT Coldplay sound you know is back and just when you think they cant surprise you anymore ...bang!! 10/10 baby! This is a fave of mine<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Lovers in Japan / Reign of Love </span>Chris has said that this album was influenced by the Arcade Fire and you can hear that in Lovers in Japan. I love the guitar in this song and it reminds me of "Keep the Car Running" Both songs make me feel in love even when Im not and thats always good. 10/10<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Yes / Chinese Sleep Chant </span>I could say Yes is my least favorite song of the album. Chris's voice is too low for my liking althow Im sure it will grow on me. But Chinese Sleep Chant is pure beauty and Im in love with the guitar in it. Ill give Yes a 6/10 and the second one a 10/10<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Viva la Vida </span>You have probably heard this one. Such a different song from everthing Coldplay has done. 10/10<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Violet Hill</span> - I actually dont like this song that much, probably because I kept on listening to it when before the album was released. Its still a good song but not a 10. 8/10<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Strawberry Swing</span> Im not sure about this one. Not sure at all. I like it and I dont like it that much. Its calm and sweet and nice but it doesnt make me go "Wooohaaa it's amazing!" 8/10<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Death and All His Friends / The Escapist </span>"Come over, just be patient, and don't worry" Dont rush things, calm, quiet, enjoy every moment of life... and then Jonny's<span style="text-decoration: underline;"></span> guitar. Suberb! Great way to finish the album.<br /><br />Yay! Im not bored anymore and I can go home now.<br />"Singing la-la-la-la-la-la-ehh"Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32331325.post-59998388519119218322007-01-01T11:21:00.000+00:002007-01-01T11:24:20.876+00:00Happy New Year!Okay,we at iBored don't have anything to post about so we just keep wishing each other on festivals and other occasions.<br /><br />Happy New Year everyone!

We love special effects! And everyone knows a human can't possibly do what a computer can.<br /><br />2.Is Daniel Craig actually worth being Bond? He looks old and is nowhere close to Pierce Brosnan.<br /><br />I don't know what's gonna become of the movie.It will definately be a hit like all the Bond movies just because of the hype associated with it but leaving all apart,I don't think the new Bond is cool.What do you say?Unknownnoreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32331325.post-1161319471862737762006-10-20T05:24:00.000+01:002006-10-20T05:44:31.880+01:00Rudebox WilliamsOkay don't be confused and all with the title.It's Robbie Williams' new album called Rudebox and this song is the title song.It's somewhat different from what Robbie usually does but I think the video is pretty cool.What's your opinions on this one then?<br /><br /><object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/2kC_IDlweQo"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/2kC_IDlweQo" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32331325.post-1161077400699056892006-10-17T09:16:00.000+01:002006-10-17T10:45:57.446+01:00Gwen's Portuguese Sister<span style="font-weight:bold;">Timberland.Gwen.Reinvention.</span> <br /><br />I have to say that I hated Nelly Furtado until she released "Maneater" but still I wasnt so keen on listening to her album. Then, a few days ago one of my friends gave me a CD on which I found "All Good Things(Come to an End)". <br />With Timberland as a producers this album was surely to be a winner. It just took me a while to realise it was.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Afraid</span> (feat Attitude) - Great opener. <span style="font-weight:bold;">10/10</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Maneater</span> - No comment. <span style="font-weight:bold;">10/10</span><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;"><br />Promiscuous</span> - I've gotten sick of it but it was ok at the time. Slightly annoying with Nelly's rapping <span style="font-weight:bold;">9/10</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Glow</span> - It starts off really but really nicely but it becomes annoying. This song reminds me of Gwen Stefani's annoying voice. <span style="font-weight:bold;">8/10</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Showtime</span> - The first slow tempo. Not a big fan of it <span style="font-weight:bold;">6/10</span><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;"><br />No Hay Igual</span> - Love it even tho' it's in Spanish but it's extremely catchy. Great beat <span style="font-weight:bold;">10/10</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Te Busque</span> - Ballad. It features Juanes and the chorus is in Spanish. Okish but I wont put it on my iPod anytime soon <span style="font-weight:bold;">6/10</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Say It Right</span> - Great beats! It has grown on me alot. <span style="font-weight:bold;">9/10</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Do it</span> - "Gwen!" Kinna poppish and all things nice.At least for her...<span style="font-weight:bold;">4/10</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">In God's Hands</span> - Ballad. Its ok I guess but not a fave of mine <span style="font-weight:bold;">4/10</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Wait for you</span> - Makes me think "Arabic!". Belly dancers yum! But..well if I get over the excitement this song is not that good 3/10..ok <span style="font-weight:bold;">4/10</span> for the belly dancers fantasy<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">All Good Things (Come to an End)</span> - Another of my faves. The first ballad I actually like <span style="font-weight:bold;">10/10</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Let My Hair Down </span>- Its a bit weird but I love it. <span style="font-weight:bold;">9/10</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Somebody To Love</span> - This IS weird! Spanish? Country? Well... all mixed up blah!! What is this doing on the album? Seriously! <span style="font-weight:bold;">2/10</span><br /><br />All in all it is a great album and you should listen to it.

Also it's interesting to note that all attempts to "kill" the I-Pod have been very unsuccesful.Nokia did one such thing.They launched Nokia N93 which is a part of Nokia N-Series.They gave it some good speakers,Bose Headphones and a huge memory storage.The result was that the phone couldn't handle so many songs and started crashing.Moreover,repeated playback caused battery heating and other complications and finally Nokia ended up killing it's I-Pod Killer.There's something yet to come which can dethrone the I-Pod.Here are what the I-Pod and Zune look like...<br /><p><br />The Apple I-Pod Shuffle<br /><br /><img src="http://digital-lifestyles.info/copy_images/apple-ipod-shuffle-lg.jpg" /><br /></p><p><br />The Apple I-Pod Nano<br /><br /><img src="http://online.wsj.com/public/resources/images/ipod_nano09072005144257.jpg" /><br /></p><br /><p><br />The Microsoft Zune<br /><br /><img src="http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/images/42091000/jpg/_42091424_billzune-ap203.jpg" /></p><p>So what's next on Microsoft's conquer the world agenda? Any Guesses?</p><p>I think it'd be a mobile phone.What's your say?<br /></p><p></p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32331325.post-1158310946780246082006-09-15T09:57:00.000+01:002006-09-15T14:58:50.700+01:00Trauma in the TrainCheck out this image carefully and then read what's given below.<br /><p><br /><img src="http://img155.imageshack.us/img155/7174/showletterug4.jpg" /></p><p>.</p><p>.</p><p>.</p><p>.</p><p>.</p><p>.</p><p>.</p><p>.</p><p>.<br /></p><p><br />These are signs in japanese metro trains, "Priority seats<br />for................" from left to right:<br /><br />1.

Already tried Bare Jewels? Here's something different for you (If you wanna give it a try)</p><br /><p>This is Asian Flava,Volume 1.It has some cool hindi songs and well you don't always need to understand the lyrics to appreciate a song do you? I dont think so.Here are my favorites :<br /></p><br /><p>1. Jal-Bikhra Hoon Main<br />This is a rocking song by a Pakistani band called Jal which means water.It's god awesome guitars and drums.The lead singer may not have a very good voice but he has this unique style and he gives this to every song he sings.</p><br /><p>2. Strings-Naa Jaane Kyun<br />Another rocking song by another Pakistani band called Strings.Check this out for some nice guitars too.</p><br /><p>3. Shamur-Gonna Make It<br />This song is kind of a sequel to the very popular Let the music Play.It's kinda different but you may like it</p><br /><p>4. Rouge-Dont be Shy<br />Rouge is a group of three Indian chics.This song gained huge popularity when it came as a part of the album "Friction-1".It's called the sound of Friction.It's got this unique musical note and you'll find it as a ringtone on like 60% of the cell phones in India.</p><br /><p>5. Dr. Zeus-Kangna<br />Dr. Zeus is an Indian DJ from the United Kingdom.This song is Punjabi but the music is nice.Kangna by the way is a bracelet in Punjabi.</p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32331325.post-1156004710783395512006-08-19T16:28:00.000+01:002006-09-06T18:36:51.210+01:00Chill me, thrill me<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4427/2738/1600/el.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4427/2738/400/el.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br />Maybe you've heard of it, maybe you haven't...One thing is sure - every second of this <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000B5252U/ref=pd_sim_m_6/102-9985387-2311369?ie=UTF8#moreAboutThisProduct">Erotic Lounge 4 - Bare Jewels</a> album is absolutely amazing. Relaxing, sexy, funky, it gets better and better after every listen. I must say I didn't like it first time I listened it. Except one song: Blank and Jones - I Love You. If you want to give Erotic Lounge a try, start with this song. Then continue with 2Raumwohnung - Sasha (Sex Secret) very catchy ;) And then, when you're warmed up, Europhone! (by Pluto Project) The hottest song after the famous Bilingual.<br /><br />For me, there are 3 major types of songs : "love at first listen" songs, "hate it first, love it after" songs and shitty songs which I will never like. The second type of songs are the best; I discover their beauty with every listen and I don't get sick of them soon. But if I do I just have to let them rest for a while and then start listen them again. I will always love this kind of songs. You probably guessed, Bare Jewels goes in this category :o)<br /><br />So are you bored enough to try something new? ( in case this is new for you) Want chills and thrills? Get a drink you like, turn off the light, volume up...and feel the music ;)<br /><br />Here are my favorite songs:<br /><br />Blank and Jones - I love you<br />Mo'Horizons - Dance naked under palmtrees<br />Sven Väth feat. Miss Kittin - Je t'aime...moi non plus<br />Bent - I love my man<br />The Strike Boys - Playtime theme<br />Pluto Project - Europhone<br />Infusion - Love and Imitation<br />2Raumwohnung - Sasha (Sex Secret)Unknownnoreply@blogger.com4
