Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween to everybody! xD

4 Hands Guitar Playing

Awesome! ^.^ an amazing kind of west-side music with two players... but with just one guitar xD really really fast and funny =P
I hope one day I play the fast part and my future girlfriend follow me with the bass! eheheheh! xP enjoy! =D

Tico Tico no Fubá

My first video in the blog which I'm playing ^.^ This song is 100% brazilian and it's called "Tico Tico no Fubá", it was made by Zequinha de Abreu and you probably have already heard it in some advertisements like Tic Tac or Água das Pedras.
In this song I played with my guitar teacher. Also, we changed the chords and the solo parts when we were playing, so in some parts I play the solo and others the chords.

Enjoy! =)

The Assumption Song

For those who call me pig or something, look this video and put your hands... in conscience xD

Bu-Lata in 'da' house!!!

they are metallic... they are friends of the environment... their sound is addictive... they want to be recycled... now they are cans, but tomorrow they can be a bike...
they are...
Bu-Lata Som Sistema! xD

who never heard it on tv or at the cinema? xD in my opinion, this public service advertising was one of the bests ever xP giving personalities to the objects, they pretend us to put them in recycle bins, because they want to have another utility. Very well done =)
One of the funniest parts is the song of "Bu-Lata Som Sistema" at the end of the advertisement xD making a fusion of beat box, kuduro and ecology was very very funny xD and everyone who listen will remember the song xP
the lyrics are in portuguese, but I put on the blog any way xD have fun xP

The Asteroids Galaxy Tour

This summer I 'met' an gorgeous danish band: The Asteroids Galaxy Tour.
When I heard it, what surprised me most was the unusual voice of the singer Mette Lindberg... Honestly I can't describe whith certainty her voice... It's a little bit childish but at the same time distorted from we consider regular. When I heard the first time in radio I was curious how they made that type of voice, but for my surprise in youtube I discovered that is her real voice. xD
They just have one album (Fruit) so I expect more fantastic songs from them.
They have 3 singles: "Hero" (which is used in the american drama Gossip Girl), "Around the Bend" (used in an iPod Touch comercial) and "The Sun Ain't Shining No More", which I consider the best song (I like the tune of the voice and the bass line) and I put below the videoclip.

Here I also let you their myspace link http://www.myspace.com/theasteroidsgalaxytour
appreciate! =)

Dance with iPod =P

If you have an iPod, do like Mr. Bean... dance dance dance! xD I discovered this video in youtube... it was made by someone with nick jerrry13157 and I think he made a hilarious ad with the Spice Girls song "Wanna Be" xD and this is a blog about music, so it's related xP put this video in HQ, because in normal quality it makes some brakes ;)

"I'll say you what I want, what I really really want..." LOL =P

That's Life

What kind of person I would be if I didn't post the english project of my group? xD
We chose the song "That's Life" by Frank Sinatra because the lyrics isn't so sadly as the others we like. Also, it was made to make us happy and thinking about what we consider bad luck, just because this sort of things are normal in life, so we must don't give up and continue.
Frank Sinatra was an American singer and actor and he died in 1998 with 82 years old. He recorded more than 50 studio albums and films! 0.0
Here is the movie of our english work. enjoy it! =P
(note: probably you will need to increase the volume)

Gibson Robot Guitar

I saw this video in youtube probably one year ago or more, but when I see it I always say "OMG!!!". It's really a mixture of technology and music... What could be better? xD
Well... It seems to be a dream for guitarists, but for some of them is a nightmare, because they say the tune of a guitarist must be personal and not influenced by a machine or robot.
Here I show you a youtube video of the Gibson Robot Guitar demo with a funny ending xD

Mad World

In english class we had a work to do about music: do a movie related to a song, with images and lyrics, and last week one group showed one music of Gary Jules which I liked a lot. If you don't know, Gary Jules is a 40-year-old singer and songwriter and his famous song is "Mad World", which was a single in December 2003 and was the song that the group talked and presented to the class. This music was also used in a commercial for Gears of War (Xbox 360 video game), in the well known medical drama Dr. House and even in Portugal for "Galp Energia".
The lyrics is about life and its problems, sorrows and chalenges, something everyone does, which makes a beatiful music for all ages. One thing I like also is the way and tune it is played, in a smooth, calm and melodic form accompanied by piano, making us stop, understand and reflect when we listen.
When I saw the videoclip, that's surprised me about is creativity, because at the roof of the school we can see people doing animated pictures, like a face, a car, an animal or a boat in movement, wich some of them are related to the lyrics.
Here's the videoclip and it makes worth the while seeing it ;) enjoy!
