I was just checking out Jay Sean's new album and my favourite there has to be War...
I actually wish I had more to update... but nah, not really... Have been playing too many facebook games - Thanks to my younger sisters :(
They got me into this Korean Drama 'You're Beautiful' - I think I was really sceptical when they first BEG (I'm serious) me to watch it :) but now I'm hooked!
I guess I can never resist a film with a great soundtrack!
I 'discovered' Orianthi yesterday and I knew I had to show someone, anyone 'my GREAT discovery'... I sat Darrel down and he was stunned - I was satisfied :)
I phone my sis half way across Australia - in Perth and I was SO SO SO frustrated she didn't pick up Luke's phone :p I left her a Facebook post informing her of my awesome awesome discovery!!!
She replied this morning describing Orianthi as a TerrarMenerrar and NOW I am satisfied! :D :D :D
I know this is an obsession - but she is SO Good - even for non guitar playing people like me...
I have always LOVED Santana - cuz not only is he so talented in guitar, but unlike some awesome guitarist like Steve Vai (who because they are so good - they just become weird!) And the stuff they play, I can't even appreciate... I mean I don't know HOW to appreciate... but Santana's different - his work is for anyone who likes music!!! I like technical musicians who can make it sound good too.
So when I found Orianthi, she reminded me SO much of Santana - NOT just because of the style she plays (and the very similar guitar she uses) but it's because she would be what I call an ARTIST! She is so awesome because you don't see it coming!!! I thought she was just a Paris Hilton wanna be, who maybe can sing...
BUT NO!!! She is talented, gorgeous, and absolutely enchanting - cuz of her skills. REALLY.
And best of all, she our home grown GIRL - from Adelaide :) I don't know why I am so proud, I am not even Aussie - but I always thought talent like these came from America!!! So proud to see some talent from this side of the world :)
And to all the men out there! GIRLS can play awesome guitar too!!! *haha*
This video, though not one of my favourite songs on her album Believe but it is this video that got me hooked on her.
