I'm sitting here at my flat watching Glastonbury 2007 on the big screen. been a quality weekend, watched over 25 hours of coverage by the time it finished on monday mornin. been superb. had brother over and pearson and edwards. always love watching it, maybe one day i'll go.
So i've bought some new music, this time from HMV store. i got S Club's best of. pure cheese, pure class!! I also bought Mark Ronson's album, Version. Its got some of his stuff and also covers that he's done and its beautiful. theres rock and jazz mixed in and its great!! I also bought his first album but no listened to it yet.
the final album that i bought was Radio 1 Live Lounge. All stuff performed live and its class. some covers, some acoustic versions. brill.
Also bought This Life on DVD and Please Sir, a great 70's film. oh and Shawshank for £3!!
At the start of the year I bought a few albums and have continued. I've never really bought music much, but I do love the stuff. So here's some of the albums I've bought this year, almost all of them from Amazon:
Justin Timberlake - Futuresex Lovesounds Blur - Best of Prodigy - Their Law (The Singles) Massive Attack - Collected (Best of) Bloc Party - A Weekend In The City Mika - Life In Cartoon Motion Moulin Rouge - Double Soundtrack Oasis - Stop The Clocks Manic Street Preachers - Forever Delayed (Greatest Hits)
Thats pretty good for me!! Just over one a month. Not sure what my favourite is. Only just got the last 3 so will let you know.
So it's begun. Most people say "no im not watching this year" or "its crap, theyre all freaks". i hear the same thing. Rhi keeps watching it year in year out with me and we love it. Watch it, get to 'know' them for a bit, and you'll begin to enjoy it. Some highlights for me over the years have been the painful incident where Bubbl was running and smashing his leg into the table. That was nasty. Very funny year that one.
Another highlight for me was when Victor was given cold showers in BB7. He got very pissed off and complained of the infamous "sniffles". very gangsta, bruppp! To rub it in, a minute later Marco had a shower and it was nice and warm which he showed Victor but to the hilarity of the rest of the house. brilliant. I dont have a video clip for this one though, so if anyone else does...
but THE highlight was Alex dancing when he was hiding. That really was pricless. The situation around it was the group had to get on a stage and dance whenever music was about to be played. But Alex didnt want to do it after a few beers, so he hid. kate tried to find him and thats when the music started. sheer timing!
So what about this years lot? well its all girls at the start and thats ok to watch for a bit. interesting idea. that lesley needs to go. why on earth did she enter?! carole rocks. she knows who she is, happy with it and a happy character. I like chanelle, obviously. Tracey's a cool chick. funky, funny and real. i like it. the twins... oh dear. emily, ok i guess. Then the guy entered. My very first impression was "ego", but then he spoke and i was impressed straight away. he seems really down to earth, honest and friendly. the fact he spoke to all of them such as carole and lesley was nice rather than flirting with the young ones. I like him. So here's to another year. I look forward to another year of high pranks, silly games and moments of laughter. Thats why I watch.
oh and i almost forget to mention... get charley out!!! so annnnoooooyyyying!
