BEST ALBUMS,SONGS AND VIDEOS OF 2012- PART 1

HAPPY NEW YEAR everyone!!!
First of all i want to thank every single one of you that have been following this blog and that stayed with me from the start!!! :))) i appreciate it sooooooooooooooo much!!!
So the new year is here and now we can make a review of the music in the old one and see who came as one of the best in it. :) Let me remind you that this is a personal opinion and i do try to be as objective as i can.So let's start!!!!

ALBUMS OF 2012-
#10 Rihanna "Unapologetic"-this album may go down as her classic.It's her first album that landed on #1 on Billboard's lists,and there was all this commotion about the release of the album it self.Anyway the album was a huge success bearing hit singles like "Diamonds","Phresh off the runway",we have hit songs to be "Right now" and "Nobody's business",but also vocal examples of her skills and amazing ballads "Stay" and "Half of me". So yes,she landed on this years list with a BANG!!! :)

#9 Lana Del Ray "Born To Die"- looking back this has been an excellent year for Lana.She can say that she has done what most of artists couldn't at the beginning of her careers with their first albums.This one is different, interesting, experimental everything that Lana is.It has a touch of mystery and  her voice is amazing.Her "Born To Die" fast became an anthem,"Blue Jeans" and "Video Games" became songs that i think even Adel couldn't touch,"This is what makes us girls" and "National anthem" are pure hits.So now we are on the lookout for new tracks :)

#8 Pink "The Truth About Love"- With her new album she brought pop music back on charts big style :) the whole album was done close to perfection,as have all of her other albums before.She kept it like she is interesting,new, different and vocally hard.I bet this will be the path a lot of other musicians will follow.Yeah people this is how you sing it when you make a comeback!!!

#7 Little Mix "DNA"-winners of X Factor UK 2011 came on big time!!!Their debut album is everything any group would want for them selves.They are a perfect combination of voices and looks,and it's no wonder that in Britain they are called the new Spice Girls :)) Album comes with hit singles "Wings" and "DNA",but also with amazing songs like "Going nowhere" "Madhouse" "Case closed" and "Make you believe".So if you haven't gotten this one go and buy it you won't make a mistake.And yeah,Tulisa you did an amazing job with these girls ;)

#6 Loreen "Heal"- you all probably know this girl  as the winner of 2012 Eurovision. She represented Sweden with "Euphoria" that became a hit song of the summer in most of European countries.Now we have a full look into her divine voice,amazing singing capabilities and writing.Beside of "Euphoria" you have "My heart is refusing me" and "Sober" that are already hits,but there are songs like "Crying out your name" "Do we even matter" "Heal" and "Sidewalk" which are hits to be.So she really deserved a very high place on this list!!!!

#5 Frank Ocean "Channel Orange"- i won't even dare to touch this guy as a critic because that would be impossible with an artist like him.The only reason he isn't higher on the list is because for me personally his songs aren't something i can listen all day,everyday but i sill love him to death!!!!

#4 Cheryl Cole "Million lights"- Cheryl's trip to USA was well worth it.She came home with a hit album and songs i could repeat on and on and on...Song of the album has to be "Screw you"  but i can't stop there.We also have songs like "Sexy den a mutha" "All is fair" "Boys lie" "Call my name" "Ghetto baby" "Love killer" which are just the beginning of an amazing album.So what ever you did Cheryl do it again :)

#3 Emeli Sande "Our version of events"- ahh,the amazing,and never boring Emeli.What can i say about this album that her songs,lyrics and vocals can't for them selves.She truly deserves a high place on this list for her talents.I can't say that i have a couple of favorites because the whole album is my favorite. :) so go and get it if you haven't!!! 

#2 Tulisa "The female boss"- the always amazing Tulisa released her debut album as a solo artist and even dough it hasn't received good comments i can go and shout F*** YOU it's all i ever wanted to hear from her.She has it all,looks, INCREDIBLE VOICE,lyrics that SHE WRITES,and songs that will stay even dough you critics don't like them!!!Any way i could connect to every song on the album because you have a song for everything.Club bangers like "Live it up" "Young" "Live you life" "Kill me tonight",love songs like "Sight of you" "I'm ready" "Skeletons" "Steal my breath away" "Habit" and even Intro and Outro that come with very deep messages.So It is one of the best in 2012 for me!!!!

#1 Example "The evolution of man"- THE ONE AND ONLY EXAMPLE!!!!He can't disappoint me,ever.The follow up to "Playing in the shadows" is all you could wish to hear from him and more!!!I already did the review so i won't comment it any more.

So there you have it.My list of best albums of 2012.Hope you enjoyed it :))) And keep an eye in the days that follow fore more of the best of 2012 (Songs,videos...)





SRECNA NOVA GODINA SVIMA!!!
Pre svega zelela bih da se zavhalim svakome od Vas koji ste pratili ovaj blog i koji ste ostali uz mene i njega od pocetka!!! :))) Zahvalna sam za svaki pregled do neeeeeeeeeeba!!!
Pa,nova godna je tu i sada  mozemo da napravimo pregled muzike iz stare i  vidimo ko je bio medju najboljima u njoj. :) Samo da vas podcetim da je ovo licno misljenje  i da se trudim da budem sto objektivnija mogu.Pa da pocnemo!!!!


ALBUMI 2012-

#10 Rihanna "Unapologetic"-ovaj album ce verovatno postati njen klasik.Ovo je njen prrvi album koji se pojavio kao  #1 na Billboard-ovoj listi,i bilo je mnogo gungule oko samog objavljivanja albuma.U svakom slucaju album je bio izuzetno uspesan noseci hit singlove kao sto su "Diamonds","Phresh off the runway",imamo hitove u usponu "Right now" and "Nobody's business",ali takodje i  vokalne primere njenih vestina i neverovatne balade "Stay" i "Half of me". Tako da,da,sletela je na ovogodisnju listu sa velikim BENGOM!!! :)

#9 Lana Del Ray "Born To Die"- gledajuci unazad ovo je bila neverovatna godina za Lanu.Moze da kaze da je uradila ono sto vecina izvodjaca nisu mogla na pocetku njihovih karijera sa prvim albumima.Ovaj je drugaciji, zanimljiv, eksperimentalan,sve ono sto Lana predstavlja.Ima dodir neke misterije i njen glas je neverovatan.Pesma "Born To Die" je brzo postala himna,"Blue Jeans" i "Video Games" su postale pesme kojima,ja mislim,ni Adel nece moci da parira,"This is what makes us girls" i "National anthem" su cisti hitovi.Tako da smo sad u iscekivanju da vidimo sta je sledece :)

#8 Pink "The Truth About Love"- Sa novim albumom ona je vratila pop muziku nazad na top liste u velikom stilu :) Ceo album je uradjen skoro savrseno,kao sto su i njeni albumi pre.Napravljen je bas kakva je i ona sama, interesantan,nov, drugaciji i vokalno jak.Mogu da se kladim da ce ovo biti put kojim ce mnogi drugi izvodjaci ici.Da,ljudi, ovako se radi kada se pravi comeback!!!

#7 Little Mix "DNA"-pobednice X Factor UK 2011 su se pojavile u velikom stilu!!!Njihov debi album je sve sto bi neka grupa pozelela za sebe.One su savrsena kombinacija glasova i izgleda,i uopste nije cudno sto ih u Britaniji vec nazivaju novim Spice Girls :)) Album dolazi sa hit singlovima"Wings" i "DNA",ali i sa neverovatnim pesmama kao sto s "Going nowhere" "Madhouse" "Case closed" i "Make you believe".Tako da ako niste vec nabavili ovaj album idite i kupite ga necete pogresiti.I,da,Tulisa uradila si neverovatan posao sa ovim devojkama ;)

#6 Loreen "Heal"- Vi verovatno vec znate ovu devojku kao pobednicu Evrovizije 2012. Predstavljala je Svedsku sa "Euphoria" koja je postala hit pesma leta u vecini evropskih zemalja.Sada imamo pun uvid u njen bozanstven glas,neverovatne pevacke mogucnosti i pisanje tekstova.Pored"Euphoria" imate "My heart is refusing me" i "Sober" koji su vec hitovi,ali postoje pesme kao sto su "Crying out your name" "Do we even matter" "Heal" i "Sidewalk" koji su buduci hitovi.Tako da,ona zaista zasluzuje visoko mesto na ovoj listi!!!!

#5 Frank Ocean "Channel Orange"-Necu ni pokusati da ovog coveka kritikujem na bilo koji nacin jer bi to bilo nemoguce sa izvodjacem kakav je on.Jedini razlog zasto nije vise na listi je jer za mene licno njegove pesme nisu nesto sto bih mogla da slusam ceo dan, ali ga i dalje obozavam!!!!

#4 Cheryl Cole "Million lights"- Njen put u Ameriku se veoma isplatio.Kuci se vratila sa hit albumom i pesmama koje bih mogla da vrtim i vrtim i vrtim...Pesma albuma je definitivno "Screw you"  ali ne mogu tu da se zaustavim.Imamo pesme kao sto su "Sexy den a mutha" "All is fair" "Boys lie" "Call my name" "Ghetto baby" "Love killer" koje su sao pocetak jednog neverovatnog albuma.Tako da,Cheryl,sta god da si uradila uradi opet!!!! :)

#3 Emeli Sande "Our version of events"- ahh,necerovatna i nikada dosadna Emeli.Sta ja mogu da kazem o ovom albumu sto njene pesme,tekstovi i vokali ne mogu sami za sebe.Ona zaista zasluzuje visoko mesto na ovoj listi zbog svojih talenata.Ne mogu da kazem da imam nekoliko favorita jer  mi je ceo abum favorit. :)tako da nabavite ga ako vec niste!!! 

#2 Tulisa "The female boss"- Uvek neverovatna Tulisa je objvila svoj debi album kao solo izvodjac i iako  nije prosao dobro kod kriticara mogu slobodno da vicem F*** YOU ovo je sve sto sam ikada zelela da cujem od njeOna ima sve,izgled,APSOLUTNO NEVEROVATAN GLAS,tekstove koje ONA PISE,i pesme koje ce ostati i ako ih vi kriticar ne volite!!!u svakom slucaju,mogla sam da se nadjem u svakoj pesmi na albumu jer  postoji pesma za sve.Klubski hitovi kao "Live it up" "Young" "Live you life" "Kill me tonight",ljubavnje pesme "Sight of you" "I'm ready" "Skeletons" "Steal my breath away" "Habit" i cak Intro i Outro sa veoma dubokim porukama.Tako da ovaj jeste jedan od najboljih u 2012 za mene!!!!

#1 Example "The evolution of man"- JEDAN JEDINI EXAMPLE!!!!On ne moze da me razrocara,nikad.Naslednik albuma "Playing in the shadows" je sve sto smo zeleli da cujemo od njega,i vise!!!Pregled albuma sam vec uradila pa sa tim necu zamarati vise.

I to je to.Moja lista najboljih albuma 2012.Nadam se da ste uzivali :))) I narednih dana obratite paznju na drugi deo koji ce predstavljati jos najboljih u 2012 (pesme,spotovi...)

EXAMPLE,ALBUM "THE EVOLUTION OF MAN"

As from 19 November 2012 the new album from Example is out,and of course i couldn't wait to hear it!!!I am sorry that the revision isn't done sooner but i wanted to listen to this one very closelly so that i could give a good review.
"The evolution of man" is Example's fourth album which is released through Ministry of sound record label.The album was recorded from 2011 till 2012. "Say Nothing" is the albums lead single,produced by Dirty South and was released on 16 September 2012.The single debuted at #2 on the UK singles chart.Second single was "Close Enemies" you can read the review of it here.It was produced by Alex Smith and was released on 11 November 2012 but the video for it was released on 8 October 2012."Perfect Replacement" is scheduled for release as the third single in February 2013 and is produced by Feed Me.

The review:
Album is consisted out of 13 songs and the deluxe version comes with 8 more.Totally 21 song.
Music: Some of the genres that can be heard on the album are progressive house,dub-step,electro house,drum & bass which he stayed true to since he started his music career.And that's a plus.It's far from simple melodies that stretch from the beginning to the end of the song.He switches them trough the courses and that makes them more intense and listenable.
Voice: He has perfect control of his vocal capabilities and doesn't go to far as he will have to sing them at concerts,but still he uses it to the maximum.Rap is perfectly combined and followed with the beat in the songs without any fall out.I also like the fact that he is alone in most of the songs and that he didn't have a lot of features on it.
Lyrics: There are a lot of metaphores used in songs which is the best thing in his writing.I have to emphasise the fact that he is one of the few artists who is the writer of his own songs which is hard to see these days.He had the perfect idea and concept for the album,but there are a couple of songs that are to simple in my opinion.In them i have this feeling of lyrics not being finished.

The album gets 5/5 from me as the overall impression is amazing!!!Best songs on the album (and there's a lot of them) are: "We'll be comming back" feat. Calvin Harris, "Come Taste The Rainbow", "Close enemies", "Perfect replacement", "Queen of your dreams", "All my lows", "The evolution of man", "Snakeskin", "Are you sitting comfortably?", "Let's be fucking stupid", "Eutopia" and "Whistle".
I do appreciate the fact that he is working on his albums a little longer and that when he does release something it is always a bang of a song or album.So i sincerely say CONGRATULATIONS YOU DID IT AGAIN!!!

Od 19. Novembra 2012 novi album Example-a je u prodaji,i naravno nisam mogla da docekam da ga preslusam!!!Izvinjavam se sto mi je trebalo ovoliko vremena da uradim reviziju,ali htela sam da se dobro upoznam sa istim da bih mogla lepo da ga predstavim.
"The evolution of man" je Example-ov cetvrti album izdat od strane Ministry of sound izdavacke kuce.Album je sniman od 2011 kroz 2012. "Say Nothing" je glavni singl sa albuma,produciran od strane Dirty South-a (inace decko je srbin) i objavljen je 16. Septembra 2012.Singl je debitovao na #2 UK singles liste.Drugi singl je bio "Close Enemies" za koji  pregled mozete da procitate ovde.Producent ove pesme je Alex Smith i ona je objavljena 11. Novembra 2012 ali video za nju je objavljen 8. Octobra 2012."Perfect Replacement" je najavljen kao kao treci singl,trebao bi da bude objavljen u Februaru 2013 a producirao ga je Feed Me.

Revizija:
Album se sastoji od 13 pesama a deluxe verzija albuma dolazi sa jos 8 sto je 21 pesma u totalu.
Muzika: Neki od zanrova koji mogu da se cuju na albumu su  progressive house,dub-step,electro house,drum & bass kojima je ostao veran od kada je zapoceo svoju muzicku karijeru.A to je veliki plus.Daleko je od prostih i jednolicnih melodija koje se prostiru od pocetka do kraja pesme.Menja ih kroz strofe i refrene sto ih cini mnogo napetijim i slusljivijim.
Glas: Example ima savrsenu kontolu svojih glasovnih sposobnosti i ne ide predaleko jer ce ipak trebati da iste peva na koncertima,ali ipak glas koristi do maksimuma.Rep je savrseno ukombinovan i prati bit u pesmama bez i jednog ispadanja.Takodje volim cinjenicu da je jedini izvodjac u vecini pesama i da nije imao mogo gostovanja na ovom albumu.
Tekstovi: U pesmama je korisceno mnogo metafora sto je i najbolja stvar u njegovom stilu pisanja.I moram da naglasim cinjenicu da je on jedan od retkih izvodjaca koji je takodje i tekstopisac svojih pesama sto je tesko videti u danasnje vreme.Imao je savrsenu ideju i koncept za album,ali postoji par pesama na njemu koje su suvise proste po mom misljenju.U njima imam neki osecaj  da tekst nije bas komplet zavrsen.

Album dobija 5/5 od mene jer je celokupan utisak o albumu neverovatan!!!Najbolje pesme na albumu (a ima ih dosta) su: "We'll be comming back" feat. Calvin Harris, "Come Taste The Rainbow", "Close enemies", "Perfect replacement", "Queen of your dreams", "All my lows", "The evolution of man", "Snakeskin", "Are you sitting comfortably?", "Let's be fucking stupid", "Eutopia" i "Whistle".
Zaista cenim cinjenicu da radi na svojim albumima malo duze i da kada ipak nesto objavi to je uvek hit pesma ili album.Tako da najiskrenije kazem CESTITAM,OPET SI USPEO!!!

RIHANNA,ALBUM "UNAPOLOGETIC"

Ok,so Rihanna's new album is officially out since 19.November and i finally took some time to listen carefully to it.But before i do the complete review of it I'll share some of information about it.

Rihanna's seventh album called "Unapologetic" was recorded between June and November 2012. The first single "Diamonds" was released on September 27, 2012. and you could read the review of it here . Rihanna executively produced it along with a lot of other producers,some old some new.The album combines genres like pop,EDM and dub step.Album features guest vocals from Chris Brown,Eminem,Mikki Ekko and Future.The album will be supported by the Diamonds world tour beginning in March 2013.

Now for the review it self.

The album it self has 15 songs and 2 remixes of "Diamonds".

So let's break it down...

Music: As i said musically she combined a couple of genres like EDM,dub step and pop,but there is a hip hop touch to it in a few songs.We have a typical David Guetta song "Right Now" which is made to be a club banger."Phresh of the runway" and "Power it up" are those hip hop like songs.And than there are strong ballads like "Stay","Love without tragedy" and "Half of me".There is also a reggae like song "No love allowed".You have Scillex inspired songs like "Lost in paradise" and "Jump".

Lyrics: Somehow I'm left wondering what was the point of some of the songs on the album.Most of them are kind of unfinished and lack theme.But i have to give kudos to Emelie Sande for writing a song like "Half of me" which is i think mostly about Rihanna herself.The song from which i expected the most was "Numb" feat. Eminem but it was to simple and to short of words.Lyrics,beside Emilie's,that are actually very soulful and revealing are from "Diamonds","Stay" and "Nobodies business".In them you can see the hopeful side of the young singer and her perspective on everybody sticking their noses in her personal life.

Vocals: in this part it's 50/50.I am actually impressed by her vocal performances in ballads,because for a long time she didn't concentrate on that part of her music.Now her voice has developed a lot,and i really like how she sounds in those songs.There are also songs that are to simple,but in the end it's her style and she is sticking to it.The semi rap part is kind of weird but still listenable.

All in all the album is 3.5/5 on my list.My personal favorites are #9 "Stay",#15 "Half of me",#10 "Nobodies business",#11 "Love without tragedy" without the Mother Marry part and #13 "No love allowed".I do think she should take a break and find the style that she'll stick to and to sum up everything she has done and will do next,because doing an album after album so soon can lead to a downfall if it continues.I just want to repeat again,this is my opinion,so please do respect it,as i respect the fact that in the end most of people will like and listen to this album. ;)

Ok,Rihannin novi album je u prodaji od 19.Novembra i konacno sam odvojila vremena da ga pazljivo preslusam.Ali pre nego sto uradim kompletan pregled,podelicu sa vama neke informacije o albumu .

Rihannin sedmi album  "Unapologetic" je snima izmedju Juna i Novembra 2012. Prvi singl "Diamonds" je objavljen 27. Septembra 2012. i pregled o njemu mozete da procitate ovde . Rihanna je bila izvrsni producent zajedno sa dosta drugih,nekih starih nekih novih.Album kombinuje zanrove kao sto su pop,EDM i dub step.Gosti koji se pojavljuju variraju, od Chris Brown,Eminem,Mikki Ekko do Future.Album ce biti podrzan od strane Diamonds world tour koja pocinje u Martu 2013.

A sad,revizija.

Sam album ima 15 pesama i 2 remixa pesme "Diamonds".

Muzika: kao so sam rekla,muzicki je kombinovala vise zanrova kao EDM,dub step i pop,ali u par pesama se oseca dodir hip hopa.Imamo i tipicnu David Guetta pesmu "Right Now" koja je napravljena sa namerom da bude klupski hit."Phresh of the runway" i "Power it up" su one pesme sa uticajem hip hopa.A onda imamo jake balade kao "Stay","Love without tragedy" i "Half of me".Na albumu se ponovo nalazi i jedna pesma u rege stilu "No love allowed".A imate i pesme inspirisane stilom Skrilexa "Lost in paradise" i "Jump".

Tekstovi: Nekako sam ostala u mraku sto se tice poente nekih od pesama na albumu.Vecina njih je delimicno nezavrsena i nedostaje im tema.Ali moram da odam priznanje Emelie Sande za pesmu "Half of me" koju je napisala ja mislim najvise po ugledu na sam Rihanna zivot.Pesma od koje sam najvise ocekivala je "Numb" feat. Eminem ali je prekratka i fale joj reci.Tekstovi,pored Emilie-og,koji su zaista veoma jaki i otkrivaju dosta su "Diamonds","Stay" i "Nobodies business".U njima mozete da uocite onu stranu mlade pevacice koja je zaista puna nade i njenu perspektivu o tome kako se oseca s' obzirom da se svi guraju nos u njen privatni zivot.

Vokali: U ovom delu rezultat je 50/50.Zaista sam impresionirana njenim vokalnim izvodjenjem u baladama,jer jako dugo se nije koncentrisala na taj deo njene muzike.Sada se njen glas razvio poprilicno i zaista mi se sidja kako zvuci u tim pesmama.Ima pesama u kojima je sve suvise prosto,ali na kraju to je njen stil i ona ga se drzi.Onaj polu rep deo je na neki nacin po malo cudan  ali i dalje slusljiv.

Sve u svemu album je zaradio 3.5/5 na mojoj listi.Moji licni favoriti su #9 "Stay",#15 "Half of me",#10 "Nobodies business",#11 "Love without tragedy" bez Mother Marry dela i #13 "No love allowed".Zaista mislim da bi trebala da napravi pauzu,da nadje svoj stil kog ce se drzati i da sumira sve sto je do sad uradila i sta ce uraditi sledece,jer izbacivati album za albumom sa tako malim razmakom izmedju njih moje dovesti do velikog pada ako se nastavi.I samo zelim da ponovim,da je ovo moje misljenje,pa Vas molim da ga postujete kao sto ja postujem Vasa kao i cinjenicu da ce se mnogima od Vas ovaj album veoma svideti i da cete ga duuuugo slusati. ;)

Poz, M.

BREAK TROUGH-JAMES ARTHUR

I know that a lot of you have heard about the world wide famous show "The X factor".I have been following the 9. series of the UK show,and i have to say that the competition is tough!!!There is a lot of good singers including Jahmene Douglas and Ella Henderson,and amazing performers like Rylan Clark,but if you ask me there is only one complete musician on the show and that would be James Arthur!!!

James Arthur is a 24-year old singer,songwriter,raper and guitarist from Saltburn,Teesside.He wowed the judges with his performance of Tulisa's song "Young".Making it his own he sang his heart out for them.And what a voice came out!!!The same moment i heard him sing i fellt he will be HUGE!!!!Later we found out about his not so happy life.But in the end he came through!!!

As the week passed we came to the live shows where you finally see who is made for this and who,simply,isn't.And he let us see what a true talent he is.So far during the competition we could hear his interpretations of a lot of great hits.But the one song that showed that he is a true star is his interpretation of Adele's song "Hometown Glory".Every week he would play with songs and make them his own,but this time he has outdone himself and every other person in that competition.Starting with the guitar intro,which was followed by his soooooo amazingly rough voice was just the start.The song then came into his a dub step remix which has never been seen on a talent show before.I'm sorry Adele but his version is better!!! :)))

When you have an artist like James you simply can't go wrong.He really has an ear for making a song,adding parts of rap or his feeling for putting the song into a different genre are simple and true talent.And his voice is unbelievable!!!Turning from soft and gentle,to a rough and full of strong emotions,this is why I'm glad competitions like these exist.

I know that you will say,ok but he must have made a mistake,he isn't perfect...but he is!!!Even if you listen to one of his own songs you will see the amount of talent he has.And i can proudly say i have found my idol!!!

But it would be for the best if i stop writing and let him and his voice show everything to you.I have huge expectations for him and i can't wait to hear and see what will come next for him!!!

James Arthur - Hometown Glory(Adele)

James Arthur - Faded

Dosta Vas je do sada culo o svetski poznatom sou "The X factor".Kao i uvek pratim i ovu 9. sezonu engleske verzije soua i mogu vam reci da je konkurencija ogromna!!!Imaju mnogo odlicnih pevaca ukljucujuci Jahmene Douglas i Ella Henderson i neverovatnih izvodjaca kao sto je Rylan Clark,ali ako mene pitate postoji samo jedan kompletan muzicar u celom souu i to bi bio James Arthur!!!

James Arthur je 24oro godisnji pevac,tekstopisac,reper i gitarista iz Saltburna,Teesside.On je oduvao sudije svojim  performansom Tulisine pesme "Young".Prilagodivsi je sebi,pevao je svim srcem za njih...Kakav je samo glas izasao!!!Iste sekunde kada sam ga cula kako peva osetila sam da ce on biti ogroman hit!!!!Kasnije smo saznali i o njegovom,ne tako srecnom,zivotu.Ali na kraju on je izasao iz svega toga jaci.

Kako su nedelje prolazile dosli smo i do performansa uzivo gde se konacno vidi ko je stvoren za ovo a ko,naprosto,nije.A on nam je pokazao koliki je on zapravo talenat.Do sada u takmicenju smo mogli da cujemo njegove interpretacije velikih hitova.Ali jedna pesma koja je pokazala da je on zaista prava zvezda,je njegova interpretacija pesme Adel "Hometown Glory".Svake nedelje bi se igrao sa pesmama i cinio ih njegovim,ali ovaj put je nadmasio sebe i sve ostale u ovom takmicenju.Intro koji je zapoceo gitarom,pracen njegovim neverovatnim glasom je bio samo pocetak.Pesma se potom razvila u njegov dub step remiks koji niko ranije nije pokusao da izvede na ovakvom souu.Adel,izvini,ali njegova verzija pesme je bolja!!! :)))

Kada imate izvodjaca kao sto je James,naprosto,ne mozete da pogresite.Njegov sluh za pravljenje pesme,dodavanje repa ili njegov osecaj za stavljanje pesme u potpuno drugi zanr su prosto i jednostavno talenat.A njegov glas je neverovatan!!!Prelasci iz neznog u grub i pun jakih emocija je razlog zato mi je drago da takmicenja kao ova postoje (na zalost,ne i kod nas).

Znam da ce te reci,ok ali mora da je napravio neku gresku,on nije savrsen...ali on jeste!!!Cak i kada poslusate jednu od njegovih pesama uvidecete koliko talenta postoji u njemu.

Ali bice najbolje da prestanem da pisem i da pustim njega i njegov glas da Vam sve pokazu.Imam ogromna ocekivanja za njega i jedva cekam da cujem i vidim sta ce biti sa njegovom karijerom!!!

EXAMPLE-CLOSE ENEMIES

Today i finally sat down and listened to Example's new single,and to say i was blown away with the song would be too mild.But i'll get to that...

You all probably got familiar with Example after his explosive single "Changed The Way You Kiss Me" and smashing hits like "Midnight  run", "Stay Awake", "Won't Go Quietly" and others.He released his album "Playing In The Shadows" which turned out to be his biggest sucsses all over the world,especially in Europe.Now he's back again!!!! :)))

"Close Enemies" is the second single from the upcoming album "The Evolution Of Man". The song it self was released at the end of September 2012 but the video (i will put it at the end of the post) was released on 8,October 2012.The song received it's radio debut on Zane Lowe's BBC Radio 1 show where it was announced as Zane's hottest song of 2012.
The album is announced for 19 November 2012 through Ministry of sound. (can't wait for it!!!)I am hoping it will be even better than "Playing In The Shadows" because that album was AMAZING!!!

Possible cover for the new album "The Evolution Of Man"

As for the song and video,my opinion on it is that this why he became famous in the first place.Killer lyrics,killer beat,amazing voice,perfect rap style and phenomenal video concepts.I know that i'm saying all these good things,but it actually is THAT GOOD!!!
Even dough some of you will say that the video is maybe too dark,in my opinion it is just as dark as it should be to follow the strong lyrics of the song.Lyrics are hard and hit the point very easily so i think this will be a song to which a lot of people will be able to relate to,i know i did. :D

So now we have to wait for the album to see what Example prepared for us this time.You can rest assure that i will cover it as soon it's out,so keep an eye on the post about it in November.For now i leave you to enjoy in the video for "Close Enemies". :)

Danas sam konacno sela i poslusala Example-ov novi singl,i kada bih rekla da me je oduvao bi bilo preblago.Ali docicu i do toga...

Svi ste se,verovatno,vec upoznali sa Example-om posle njegovog eksplozivnog singla "Changed The Way You Kiss Me" i fenomenalnih singlova "Midnight  run", "Stay Awake", "Won't Go Quietly" i drugih.Objavio je album "Playing In The Shadows" koji je postao njegov najveci uspeh u svetu,a posebno u evropi.I sad se vratio!!! :)))

"Close Enemies" je drugi singl sa novonajavljenog albuma "The Evolution Of Man".Pesma je objavljena pred kraj septembra 2012 ali video (imate ga iznad) je objavljen 8. Oktobra 2012.Svoj debi na radiu je dozivela u emisiji Zane Lowe-a BBC Radio 1,gde he najavljena kao Zejnova najpesma 2012.
Album je najavljen za 19. novembar 2012 a izdavac ce biti Ministry of sound.(ne mogu da docekam!!!)Nadam se da ce biti jos bolji od "Playing In The Shadows" posto je taj album bio apsolutno NEVEROVATAN!!!

Sto se pesme i videa tice,po mom misljenju,oni su razlog zasto je on na prvom mestu i postao poznat.Ubistven tekst,ubistvena muzika,neverovatan glas,perfektan stil repovanja i fenomenalni koncepti spotova.Znam da govorim toliko dobrih stvari,ali je zaista TOLIKO DOBAR!!!
Iako ce neki od Vas reci da je video mozda malo pre mracan,po mom misljenju on je dovoljno mracan da bi ispratio jak tekst pesme.Tekst je ostar i pogadja u centar jako lako,tako da mislim da ce ovo biti pesma sa kojom ce mnogi moci da se poistovete.Znam da ja jesam. :D

Sada nam ostaje da cekamo album da vidimo sta je Example spremio sledece za nas.Budite sigurni da cu pisati o njemu cim bude izasao,tako da pratite blog u novembru da ga uhvatite.Za sad Vas ostavljam da uzivate u spotu za pesmu "Close Enemies". :)

BREAK THROUGH-PSY

Today i will concentrate on the part of the blog that is reserved for artists that are just breaking through.

I decided to dedicate this one to a world wide phenomen,Psy.

Park Jae-sang is a South Korean singer-songwriter,rapper,dancer and record producer.Better known by his stage name,Psy.He became famous world wide after the release of his hit song and video "Gangnam Style".From the release of the video it's popularity continues to grow rapidly with the video having 355 million views,and more than 3.3 million "likes",as of October 3,2012.

"Gangnam Style" has been highly praised for its catchy beat and Psy's humorous dance moves in the music video and live performances. On September 17, the song was nominated for Best Video at the upcoming 2012 MTV Europe Music Awards to be held in Frankfurt.On September 20, 2012, "Gangnam Style" was recognized by Guinness World Records as the most "liked" video in YouTube history".And that is,i can say it freely,a huuuuuuuuge thing for an artist that wants to break through!!!

As from 4. September 2012 Psy is signed to Schoolboy Records,by Scooter Brown.And we are expecting more hits(and some in English) from this amazing artist.If any of you are interested in listening to couple of Psy's older songs i will post some of his hits (from before "Gangnam Style") below.

Critical reception:Maura Judkis of The Washington Post wrote,"'Gangnam Style' has made an extraordinarily stupid-looking dance move suddenly cool".

Fekadu of the Associated Press wrote that Psy "is excited his colorful style is being celebrated in the United States, and around the world.".

Deborah Netburn of the Los Angeles Times called it "one of the greatest videos ever to be uploaded to YouTube".And i think that nobody can say that these comments are far from the truth!!!

"Gangnam style" is a totally different song than anything that is currently on the market,if we set a side the fact that the song is mostly on Korean.At the moment i,personally,can't see anybody else that will win the award for the best video at MTV Awards this year.

For me this song has it all,music,words(even dough we probably don't know them well),video.I predict this will be the song of the year,and that it will be the biggest party anthem ever!!!

I will keep a close eye on Psy expecting to see what will become of him and his,now,sky high career,so you can expect to read more about his success in later posts. :)))

Psy- Right Now

Psy- It's art

Danas cu se koncentrisati na deo bloga koji je rezervisam za izvodjace koji se tek probijaju.

Ovaj sam odlucila da posvetim svetskom fenomenu,Psy-u. :)))

Park Jae-Sang je juzno korejski pevac,tekstopisac,reper,igrac i producent.Bolje je poznat po svom umetnickom imenu,Psy.Popularan je postao posle objavljivanja njegove hit pesme i spota "Gangnam Style".Od objavljivanja spota njegova popularnost nastavlja da raste ubrzano sa videom koji ima 355 miliona pregleda i vise od 3.3 miliona "lajkova" (podatci su od 3. oktobra 2012)

"Gangnam Style" je veoma hvaljen zbog svoje zarazne muzike i Psy-ovog urnebesnog plesa u spotu i zivim performansima.17. septembra pesma je nominovana za najbolji video na predstojecim 2012 MTV Evropskim Video Nagradama koje se odrzavaju u Frankfurtu.20. septembra 2012. "Gangnam Style" je priznat od strane Ginisovih svetskih rekorda kao najvise "lajkovan" video u istoriji You Tube-a, a to je,slobodno mogu da kazem,ooooooooogromna stvar za izvodjaca koji se tek probija!!!

Od 4. septembra 2012. Psy je potpisao ugovor sa Schoolboy izdavackom kucom,od strane Scooter Brown-a.Sad ocekujemo jos hitova(neke i na engleskom) od ovog neverovatnog izvodjaca.

Ako je iko od Vas zainteresovan da poslusa jos neke od Psy-ovih(pre "Gangnam style") hitove,moze to da ucini na linkovima iznad.

Kritke:

Maura Judkis iz Vasington Posta je napisala: " "Gangnam Style" je ucinio da jedan izuzetno glup ples iznenada igleda kul".

Fekadu iz Associated Press-a je napisao da je Psy "uzbudljiv zbog svoj sarenolikog stila i da se on slavi u Americi i sirom sveta zbog toga".

Debora Netburn iz Los Andjeles Times-a ga je nazvala "jednim od najboljih videa ikada uplodovanih na You Tube".

I ja mislim da niko ne moze da kaze da su ovi komentari daleko od istine!!!

"Gangnam style" je totalno drugacija pesma od bilo cega trenutno na trzistu,ako stavimo po strani cinjenicu da je uglavnom na korejskom.U ovom trenutku,ja licno,ne mogu da zamislim ikoga drugog kao pobednika u kategoriji za najbolji video na MTV nagradama ove godine.

Za mene je ova pesma ima sve,muziku,reci(i ako ih mozda ne znamo najbolje),spot.Prognoziram da ce ovo biti pesma godine kao i najveca himna zurki ikada!!!

Praticu Psy-a ocekivajuci da vidim sta ce biti sa njegovom visoko lansiranom karijerom,tako da mozete da ocekujete jos materijala o njegovom uspehu u kasnijim postovima. :)))

RIHANNA-DIAMONDS

Hello everybody,
first of all want to say sorry for not writing anything for almost a week,but i have been working a lot so the blog had to wait for a while.Any way,let's skip to business. :)

As most of  you know,by now,Rihanna has presented us her new single which is the lead single from the upcoming album scheduled for a November 2012 release.The single was released on September 26, 2012 and almost immediately hit #1 in 15 countries on iTunes.The single it self is something totally opposite of what everybody was expecting from,sometimes to sexy,Rihanna and what type of music she has done recently.Song was co-written and composed by Sia together with Benny Blanco and StarGate,while the production was helmed by the latter two.It received generally positive reviews,with critics complimenting Rihanna's new musical direction.
My opinion of the song is actually quite good.As i listened to it i had a feeling that it's a little influenced by Lana Del Ray's style,but when i found out that Sia has written it i could completely see her influence in it.I actually liked that for the first time in such a long time she has a positive song and that it's very theatrical in the aspect of the lyrics.They are so well composed with the music and her full voice that this song is something that will stand out in the crowd,that is mainly composed of house songs,at the moment.Her singing and the emotion that she has put in this song is showing how she has evolved and is evolving from everything that she has been.I will be expecting something totally different from her upcoming album because of this song.

So,this will be all about this song.I'm wishing Rihanna a lot of success with this single,and i'm anxiously waiting for the whole album to come out. :))

Cao svima,
prvo i prvo zelela bih da se izvinim sto mi je trebalo skoro nedelju dana za pisanje novog posta,ali imala sam neke neodlozne obaveze,pa je blog morao malo da trpi.Ali,da predjemo na stvar. :)))

Kao sto mnogi od Vas vec znaju,Rihanna nam je predstavila svoj novi singl koji je takodje i vodeci za njen novi album,najavljen za izlazak u novembru 2012.Singl je objavljen 26 septembra 2012. i skoro istog dana je dostigao #1 u 15 zemalja na iTunes-u.  
Sam po sebi singl je potpuno drugaciji od onoga sto su svi ocekivali od,ponekad pre sexy,Rihanna-e i od muzike kojom se bavila do skoro.Pesma je napisana od strane Sie zajedno sa Benny Blanco-m i StarGate-om,dok je za produkcijsku stranu pesme bio zaduzen malopre navedeni dvojac.Dobio je relativno pozitivne kritike sa recima hvale,od strane krticara,za Rihanna-in novi muzicki pravac.


Sto se mene tice pesma je poprilicno dobra.Kako sam je sve vise preslusavala imala sam osecaj da je na pesmu uticaja imao stil Lane Del Ray,ali kada sam saznala da je Sija napisala apsolutno sam videla nju samu u pesmi.Zapravo,navise mi se svidela cinjenica da je prvi put posle jako dugo vremena Rihanna napravila tako pozitivnu pesmu i da je pesma veoma teatralna u smislu teksta.Sam tekst je tako skladno ukombinovan sa muzikom i njenim punim glasom,da je zasigurno nesto sto ce iskakati iz mora house pesama u ovom trenutku.Njeno pevanje i emocija koju je prenela u ovu pesmu pokazuju koliko se razvila i koliko se razvija iz svega sto je bila.Ocekivacu zaista nesto drugacije od njenog sledeceg albuma zbog ove pesme. 

Ovo ce biti sve o ovoj pesmi.Rihanna-i zelim,zaista,puno uspeha sa ovim singlom i zeljno iscekujem da ceo album bude objavljen. :)))

Pozz M.
