Behelzebub 10 Posted July 15, 2012 Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 Did a parachute jump for Help For Heroes yesterday. Was one of the most amazing things Ive ever done in my life. Crash landed and sprained my shoulder though. Im going back in September once its healed Awesome, I've always wanted to do something like that, congratulations. Florence And The Machine have FINALLY got a UK Number 1 Single to go with the Triple-Platinum Albums. Slightly hard to believe Spectrum did it over Dog Days or Rabbit Heart but there ya go.Ah, the Midas touch of Calvin Harris... it is a very good remix although I still can't help wishing that it was the original that had got to number 1.

MrDoovdeHaxorz 11 Posted July 15, 2012 Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 Yeah... don't tell anyone, but I actually prefer the non-remix version, I don't even like the remixes on the special edition of Lungs all that much (detest the Yeasayer mix of Dog Days, mild dislike of The Horrors remix of Hurricane Drunk, though I do like their own material).

Harkinson 11 Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 I think possibly the name change to include '(Say My Name)' helped it get #1 as well! The original was at #104 last week according to the Official Charts site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrDoovdeHaxorz 11 Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 Not really seeing how much a name change makes much difference?I suppose it's better than just calling it Spectrum (Calvin Harris remix), but still...

Viv 14 Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 Really don't get why people like Belch. The howling cat in the night noise would bother me after a while.

MrDoovdeHaxorz 11 Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 Well many don't get why people like an old desperate hag vocoding the hell out of everything to be cool and never properly singing live as she needs autotune, but apparently some do... Also you've listened to very little if you think 'every song' is a 'howling cat in the night noise'... You BLATENTLY haven't listened to Spectrum. We've been over this before, it's very boring now as you have NOTHING to back up this 'howling' BS. END. Quote Professional eater of puppy dogs, baby heads and killer of grannies...

MrDoovdeHaxorz 11 Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 Yeah the VERY young are being dragged along and often have no choice (I've seen this happen with quite a few artists). Also she's had to reinvent herself and doesn't even sing live, these points ARE proven and well-known.You base your whole case on ONE aspect... like I said, END OF.

Viv 14 Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 She didn't HAVE to re-invent herself. She CHOSE to re-invent herself, picking up on trends and what people want and need. If they are being "dragged along" why do they look so happy. Quote Delta Machine, Depeche Mode - buy NOW !! http://youtu.be/59dZzXLPRg0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrDoovdeHaxorz 11 Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 .... screw it, I give up, you're never gonna get it. Go live in the past glory and stop bringing negativity to THIS thread...

Viv 14 Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 You're bringing all the negative stuff, kicking off as usual because I said I did not understand Florence. If you do, cool.

MrDoovdeHaxorz 11 Posted July 22, 2012 Report Share Posted July 22, 2012 Flo's stayed no1 for another week. May this be like a much cooler version of Wet Wet Wet and Bryan Adams' long reigns over the no1 spot in the 90s... Sarkybitchness from Viv in 3...2...

Viv 14 Posted July 25, 2012 Report Share Posted July 25, 2012 Got a smashing sleep last night, which is a relief. Monday night - early Tuesday morning someone (female) was pretending to be a dog and barking?! Basically, the real dog was @ the other end of the building, so both were effectively "barking" backwards and forwards for around 15 minutes?!

cxx666 10 Posted July 25, 2012 Report Share Posted July 25, 2012 I'm getting shorter shifts at work now as I've "moved up" to double deckers. Gonna actually be able to have a life again after almost a year of 10/11/12 hour shifts 5 or 6 days a week. Just in time for the festival as well, eeeeeeeeeexcellent.

Viv 14 Posted July 25, 2012 Report Share Posted July 25, 2012 So... a double decker which will mean MORE PASSENGERS, and more whining @ passengers about "no change".... bet Edinburgh peeps can't wait for you as their hot, new, all exciting, all purpose bus driver on a brand new set of wheels.

Viv 14 Posted July 26, 2012 Report Share Posted July 26, 2012 Happy ending to the dog story !! Dog has been reunited with its owner this morning. Turned out to be a farm dog that must have got loose. And, hopefully, it will shortly replace the contents of my fridge.
