Pumped Up Kicks Cover By Eilidh McGuire




Howdy y'all :)

I have yet another youtube video for you! Sorry if you don't like all the youtubeness that seems to be invading the blog but...one more video won't hurt surely? And anyway, this is an important heads up to you all out there! The girl in the video is Eilidh McGuire and she lives around my area, but what I really want to say is that she has just been signed by White Neon records. Aaaand even more exciting, Eilidh's EP launch is tomorrow (that's Friday the 30th) at Brennan's in Perth! (Reading this off the poster by the way) the doors open at 7pm and it's a 3 pound entry fee. Sorry my computer doesn't have the pound sign for some reason :/

So, I hope you enjoy the video and like Eilidh's voice, I do :)
Oooh and here's the link to the EP launch facebook page!

Magic - [Walk off the Earth] B.o.B. Cover




I think music class is the best on picking up random youtube videos, this one was (unwittingly) recommended to me by the guy I sit next to, not my teacher! Surprise, surprise! I hate to say this really, but the boy has good taste. I am beginning to take quite a liking to Walk off the Earth, their covers seem to actually improve on the original songs, and I'm amazed how they made this song which is way too over played sound pretty damn awesome. Thumbs up to the beat boxing! But, uhh is the guy who beat boxes wearing a towel on his head??

Walk Off The Earth

I thought I would grace you readers with two posts in one night since they both have a linking theme...my music teacher!

Ahhh, how she goes off on a tangent and gives me little youtube gems to share with you all! This time it's not more strange dancing but is in fact a cover of Gotye's somebody I used to know, although there is an element of strange in the video. There are five people playing one guitar! It's absolutely mental! Apart from that in-your-face fact, the girl in the video is Sarah Blackwood and I have posted one of her songs on the blog already (drowning). Oh and check out the third person in from the left - mental vocals!

Enjoy mes amigos

One Big LOL



Hey readers, the two miss b's have gone their separate ways - without baking a cake!!!!! Sorry about that, I will make sure to bake one on Saturday and dedicate it to the other miss b, and post the recipe as well if you like.

Anyway, that news as you may have guessed is not one big lol. Oh no. Haha!

Yesterday my music teacher was helping us go over past papers in class as preparation for our up and coming exams (squeal of fear) and she ended up going off on a bit of a tangent. This tangent was about the terrible experience she had had with minimalist music. As she told it, she went to a lecture and had to sit through twenty minutes of Steve Reich's much acclaimed piece Come Out...or whatever it's called. It's pretty much twenty minutes of this one phrase 'come out to show them.'

Then she got onto the subject of a dance that was put together to go with the music (if you can really call it that) and I thought the way she described it was pretty funny, so I went and had a look on youtube. All I can say is omg.

The Hunger Games Film Review

So... we just got back from watching The Hunger Games at the local cinema and IT WAS AMAZING!!! For anyone who thinks it's just another Twilight look-a-like (as a critic from the i newspaper referred to it as) it most definitely isn't! In fact the film defies the critique it has had from the i newspaper, as the review harshly gave it 2 stars out of 5. However, we believe that we are speaking for the majority when we say that the film definately should have earned a 4 star review.




In our opinion, it only misses out on a 5 as all the small points from the origional book weren't quite fitted in. Even so, The Hunger Games is one of those rare films that actually lives up to its book origional...which leads to my next point. The film makes a lot more sense if you have read the book before hand, as some areas aren't really expanded on, for example the hand gestures. Plus the book gives a lot more background on the characters as well as an insight to Katniss's thoughts. 



Jennifer Lawrence (Katniss Everdeen)
Josh Hutcherson (Peeta Mellark)




In total, we think the film is brilliant (Josh Hutcherson, I mean come on! Swoon!) but we recommend reading the books first, which are equally, if not even better than the film.

Miss B's Re-United!

So as some of you may know, there are two Miss Bs and we live in totally different countries (well, England and Scotland). Such a distance! But do not fear readers, as there is light in the metaphorical dark! For this weekend and this weekend only, the Miss Bs have been re-united! And now hopefully we will encourage each other to post a lot more on this blog :)

Of course with some of the art post promises, there are problems in obtaining photos, would you believe it! But with everything else, it can only be up hill from here on in. We've got plans to bake a cake (and completely desecrate a kitchen) and go to see The Hunger Games (soooo excited!) so you should see evidence of us actually doing things soon...
