Paw reminded me of the singer Robyn the other day (she was so popular in high school!). Anyhow, it seems she's back with new music. She's releasing a trilogy called Body talk (pt 1, 2, 3).
So far 1 and 2 are out and I've been listening to them. It's catchy, dancy pop stuff. I have a favorite from each one :D
Also great music for workin at le gym ;)
Coincidently, Gorillaz works super well for the gym (Monday test, haha. I went super fast without really knowing until the machine said "high heart rate" about 4X. I guess it was time to slow down before I give myself a heart attack :P).
Finally, after trying out a hip hop class yesterday, I was reminded of this song which I used to listen to back in high school times. It would be cool to learn an actual choreography for it.
Yay! Yesterday, Paw, Captain Wildchild, another friend and I went to see Gorillaz at the Bell Centre. It was their first time on tour :) I did not bring a camera as they said it was not permitted. We did see people with cameras after all though.
^ This should give you a little idea of what it was like.
The opening band was We are Wolves - a band from Montreal. It seems half punk, half electro. Paw and I both preferred the electro stuff. Wildchild hated the band all together :P
The concert started off with an intro by Murdoc talking about the opening band and "when are they gonna finish!!!", whilst Noodle and 2D were hanging out in the back.
I wrote down the setlist:
1. Orchestral intro
2. Welcome to the world of the plastic beach
Snoop Dogg appeared on the giant screen (as in the youtube video). Twas very amusing because Snoop Dogg is generally funny and there were parts where he's like "yea, I'm awesome and I know it".
3. 19-2000
4. Last living souls
5. Oh green world
6. Stylo
7. Melancholy hill
8. Rhinestone eyes
9. Superfast jellyfish
10. Tomorrow comes today
11. Kids with guns
12. Empire ants
13. Dirty harry
14. El manana
15. White flag
16. To binge
17. DARE
18. Glitter Freeze
19. Plastic beach
----------Encore------------
20. Cloud of unknowing
21. Feel Good Inc.
22. Clint Eastwood
23. Don’t get lost in heaven
24. Demon days
There were quite a few guest artists on tour w/ em - Little Dragon, Bobby Womack, Bashy, De La Soul, Arabic music ensemble (just for White Flag :D) and a few more. I was a general fan of the outfits of the band, too. The only thing that was too bad was there wasn't much space for us to move around. It would've been so cool in a way to have it in a club and then you could really dance around. I wasn't a super huge fan of Demon Days before, but often enough, once you see a band live, you get a new appreciation for their music. Now, I can probably say I like all Gorillaz songs. It was definitely worth the ticket price :)
