As promised last week, a non Take That post but not totally unrelated: this week it’s You Know Me by ex Take That member Robbie Williams.
Great song, fun video and definitely going to be one of my favourites of 2010. Definitely elicits a very “old school” vibe too – hope you like it as much [...]

To wrap up the month-long Take That love fest, here is Everything Changes, complete with a lovely campy video of the boys back in the early ’90s.

Although the title of the song is Everything Changes, to me the key line in the song is
Though everything changes around us; we will be the same as before [...]

In the penultimate Take That week, here’s “Nobody Else”. The music video isn’t the actual video but rather following the boys through the ages -brings back memories!

Technically not music, but it does have Mp3 in the title. I thought I’d share a powerful demonstration of what happens when audio plugged in to a crowd:

So while I think Jordin Sparks could lose some weight, that girl can really sing! Case in point: live version of Battlefield with the Jonas Brothers (who don’t really do anything throughout the performance…)

37 weeks into Music Mondays and this has got to be my favourite one yet. If you haven’t already, the first thing you need to do is watch this awesome video. If you’ve already watched it, watch it again!

This is what everyone and anyone who loves music wants to see. Two people dancing to a [...]
