What’s going on with you?

I am tired…
I need sleep…
I cannot tear myself away from my laptop…
That is it, basically
Have you heard the song “New Soul” by Yael Naim from the new Apple MacBook Air ad? I heard it today for the first time and thought you’d like it. That’s all.
Steve, I hear ya man!
Simon, I haven’t, but I am going to look it up right now. Thanks for the suggestion! Keep them coming!
I gotta say I disagree - ‘Arular’ was just so full of cool stuff, and while ‘Kala’ goes in another direction (and is much less accessible), it keeps growing on me. I have no problem with the slightly facetious tone of some of the tracks - why shouldn’t psuedorevolutionary politics be fun??
Much of ‘Arular’s appeal is, I think, that there was/is nothing else like it - Diplo’s beats and production are, as ever, unparalleled, but the girls’ lyrics and delivery are clever and unique too.
As for ‘Kala,’ I recommend really sitting down to listen to tracks like “Mango Pickle Down Under” and “Jimmy,” which have really stellar undergrooves and, while they aren’t likely to be bolts of enlightenment, the lyrics are clever enough.
Just my thoughts!
Michael, sadly, I have given MIA all of the chances she is going to get. Also, did you mean to post this on the MIA thread?
I guess I did post to the wrong thread. oops! But anyways, that’s just more MIA tickets for me!
