Meaning of the song “Gives You Hell” by The All American Rejects
Apr 1st

In the song “Gives You Hell” by The All American Rejects, lead singer, Tyson Ritter is talking about the drastically different lifestyles that he and one of his ex-girlfriends are now living. He’s not afraid to be bitter about the whole situation. In verse one he draws contrast between his lifestyle and hers by the lyrics:
“I wake up every evening
With a big smile on my face
And it never feels out of place
And you’re still probably workin’
At a 9 to 5 pace”
The pre-chorus is a little funny because it is very deceptive-one moment talking about loss and missing someone but then flat out admitting that your lying.
The chorus is Tyson’s way of saying “You had me, your loss…oh and I hope your pissed about your decision” . He’s communicating that he lives the life of a rockstar and she decided to leave and now he hopes she’s miserable about it. In the second verse Tyson is pointing out that material things can’t buy love. He hopes that she deeply regrets her decision to leave him and in the hook he tells her how it is:
“Now you’ll never see
What you’ve done to me
You can take back your memories
They’re no good to me
And here’s all your lies
You can look me in the eyes
With the sad, sad look
That you wear so well”

Lil Wayne and Rock Music – Rolling Stone
Apr 1st

“The rock shit just comes from what my life is now,” Lil Wayne, 26, says. “I’ve grown into this person.” Wayne says he got tired of living the rap life-“I just got — I’m not going to say ’so good’ at what I was doing, but it became such a regularity for me that I got tired of it. And then I said, ‘You know what? I’m not going to rap on this one.’ ”
We’ve only heard one song from Lil Waynes upcoming rock album, will the others follow this pattern?
Twitter – An Amazing Music Marketing Tool
Mar 31st

Both big and small bands/individuals are taking advantage of twitter, which is an amazing status by status update client. It’s simple – all you do is tell twitter what you are doing at the moment and in turn it broadcasts it to all your followers. Now you can follow band members inside of your favorite band. Scary? Yeah, maybe a little bit..because when you tell people your going to Starbucks on 5th avenue don’t be surprised if you get bombarded with stalkers and maybe even paparazzi. Twitter is amazing if you know how to use it correctly and if your fans are on it. It’s one of the best and most simple music marketing tools there is. Best of all its free. It strips all your social networks features down into just status. HOWEVER, I’ve seen bloggers stop making blog post and musicians stop practicing at band practice because they are too busy telling others what they are doing. Is it a productivity issue? Maybe, but that depends on how much you use Twitter.
Who do you know on Twitter?

T.I. Last Interview with CNN before Jail
Mar 31st
As we told you a few days ago, T.I. was sentenced to one year in jail. The above interview with CNN is likely to be his last inteview before he hits the can. During the short interview his leg monitor goes off and they tell him he needs to change his battery. My only question about this situation is – how will jail be for TI? Will he be treated like Henry Hill from GoodFella’s or will it be more like Edward Nortons charactar from American History X? Do celebrities get perks in Jail? I have no idea, someone please fill me in.

This music app happens to be a few months old, but that doesn’t change the fact that the company who made it is amazing. Smule is coming out with another iPhone app entitled “Leaf Trombone” later on this year. Ocarina for the Iphone reminds me of the good old days of chilling and playing Zelda for n64, while drinking a coke. I think i might have to start re-living those days again!
