fashizzlemanizzle

yes yes, its that time of the year again when i put out my best/worst/watever lists of 2006. however instead of putting out lists top 5s, i have decided to put out a list of things that had an effect on me, be it bad or good.

Music that was on constant rotation on my iPod

gnarls barkley(St.Elsewhere)- Cee-Lo and Danger Mouse. a weird combo which produced one helluva of an album which consisted of rock/soul/chillout/rnb/hiphop.fantastiche!
Yeah Yeah Yeahs(Show Your Bones)- yes yes yes to Karen O and gang. ohh those pouty lips.
Lupe Fiasco(Food & Liquour)- who knew that a black man from chicago who skates(unlike pharell hehe) can rap real good.fashizzle.
Lily Allen(Alright Still)- this lovely English lass came out of nowhere with her reggae/dancehall infused pop songs. Now shes the darling of teenage gals on MySpace.
Thom Yorke (The Eraser)- all hail the man with the sleepy eyes.
Pearl Jam (Pearl Jam)- its pearl jam.nuff' said.
Arctic Monkeys- i admit that i was hesistant to pick their album up.but once i picked it up, i couldnt put it down.one track that's still on me eardrums 'when the sun goes down'.

Concerts/Shows/Gigs that i was lucky enough to witness

Franz Ferdinand- my partner in crime, El Fian, creamed in his pants after he was lucky enough to shake hands with Mr Alex Kopranos himself. Super Fantastiche.
Coldplay- back in 2001, they were already amazing.fastforward to 2006, they came back armed with new songs, grammys n a superb technicolor backdrop which accompanied their beautiful tunes. giant yellow balloons for all!
Kings of Convenience- when a band plays a song in total darkness, all u do is sit n listen to their lyrics n acoustics.one of the best gigs ive been to, they even hungout at the outdoor arena at esplanade for poptart.
Valium- www.myspace.com/myvalium these new band on the block with not so new kids on the scene make non-conforming music that delights me.keep it going guys!

Things that put a frown upon my face
Liverpool underachieving, the IRAQ war(bila nak game, saadam hussien dah game pun masih nak perang ka), Chelsea, Japanese food(i still cant appreciate it), Spore Idol contestants who could sing being voted off the show.(hahaha)

Things that put a smile upon my face
ORD, iBook, iPod logitech speakers(thx mahdhir n le arab), year end bonus(1st time dapat ape), bangkok/phuket/phiphi, vans X supreme shoes, happy berfday parties, newfound friends, old friends found again.

and so ladies and gentlemen, thats my list of whatnots n whathaves. i wish all of yous an amazing new year in 2007, n to me comrades elfian n andi, bila bila killersherpa. john legend/muse/good vibrations(BEASTIE BOYS ARE COMING!HOLY SHIT!) coming up.
be safe n happy, positive vibes all around, n say no to drugs.
