Beside Rock N'Roll:Emeli Sandé-Clown

Posesoarea unui numar frumusel de cantece de calitate si al unui records Beatles doborat(vad ca toate site-uri de “muzica” si publicatiile de acest gen din ziua de azi in general,imediat ce un artist tanar reuseste o anumita performanta pe plan muzical,aceasta este comparata cu ce au facut Beatlesii…si la cate au faceut Beatlesii,ii pot folosii ca “material de studiu” 3 generatii de acum inainte),Emeli Sandé se poate mandrii cu un album de calitate,Our version of events,o imagine greu de obtinut-cea de artist total,fara compromisuri si de un succes dobandit prin munca sustinuta si muzica de calitate.

“Clown” este single-ul cu numarul 5 de pa albumul anterior mentionat,iar mie imi aminteste de 3 cantece Pink combinate:”I don’t believe you”,”Nobody knows” si “Glitter in the air”.O balada numai buna pentru orice tip de suflet si rana,balada de la care asteptam in orice moment o “explozie”,caracteristica muzicala pe care Emeli nu o are dar care,totusi,nu i-ar strica. Single-ul a fost certificat cu argint de catre BPI pentru 200.000 copii vandute in UK,fiind in Top 30 in Norvegia si Slovacia,iar in Anglia,Irlanda si Scotia in Top 10.

Versuri:

I guess it's funnier from where you're standing
'Cause from over here I've missed the joke
Cleared the way for my crash landing
I've done it again, another number for your notes

I'd be smiling if I wasn't so desperate
I'd be patient if I had the time
I could stop and answer all of your questions
As soon as I find out
How I could move from the back of the line

So I'll be your clown
Behind the glass
Go 'head and laugh 'cause it's funny
I would too if I saw me
I'll be your clown
On your favorite channel
My life's a circus-circus rounding circles
I'm selling out tonight

I'd be less angry if it was my decision
And the money was just rolling in
If I had more than my ambition
I'll have time to please
I'll have time to thank you as soon as I win

So I'll be your clown
Behind the glass
Go 'head and laugh 'cause it's funny
I would too if I saw me
I'll be your clown
On your favorite channel
My life's a circus-circus rounding circles
I'm selling out tonight

From a distance my choice is simple
From a distance I can entertain
So you can see me I put makeup on my face
But there's no way you can feel it
From so far away

So I'll be your clown
Behind the glass
Go 'head and laugh 'cause it's funny
I would too if I saw me
I'll be your clown
On your favorite channel
My life's a circus-circus rounding circles
I'm selling out tonight

Rock stars in animations,Part.I

Pe fisa postului a oricarei celebritati intra fara doar si poate aparitiile de orice fel,chiar si cele care nu le fac placere,reclama fiind buna de ambele parti,iar atunci cand nu sunt pe scena sau prezenti la un eveniment muzical,starurile rock apar in diferite productii de animatie.

Parodiate sau pur si simplu promovate,nume mari ale muzicii de calitate si-au facut aparitia in show-uri ca The Simpsons,Family Guy sau South Park,productii care trec drept “animatii pentru adulti”,prezenta unui star rock,pe langa scenariul acestora,fiind considerata una noviva pentru mintile tinere,fiind cele mai bine cotate si primite de public din istoria televiziunii chiar daca nu sunt atat de confortabile.Exemplele ce urmeaza se refera exclusiv la momentele in care creatorii respectivei productii au ales sa transpuna chipul unui artist rock in forma obisnuita a personajelor din serial,nu la momentele in care cantaretii au dat voce personajelor de animatie,subiect pe care il tratam in alta postare.
