Time to take a break from the hair posts, and present to you
some cool things I have encountered on the internet over the past week or so.
Jeff Buckley- Grace (BBC Late Show)
Grace is one of the set works which you have to learn about
in the GCSE music course. I do like quite a lot of the pieces, but this is the
only one that I would truly listen to for my own choice. I was just searching
it up on Youtube for some further listening and found this version of it. His
performance is generally so intense and amazing, plus it’s pretty hilarious
when he lifts his hands up when his is said to also share his father’s “extraordinary
vocal elasticity”, at 00.28. Shame both father and son had such early deaths,
we can only imagine what great music they would’ve produced.
Lykke Li & Bon
Iver doing 'Dance Dance Dance' in L.A
Lykke Li is one of my favourite female artists, along with
Florence & the Machine and Regina Spektor. She with Bon Iver (match made in
heaven!) simply jamming and dancing in the street with their sleigh bells, kazoo
and accordion is so organic and delightful. I remember seeing this video a few
years ago, it’s only recently I just rediscovered it from Jazz’s blog, which
may I say is absolutely beautiful – I wish I could produce such amazing
illustrations!
This is a beautiful blog by a beautiful girl, but I
especially love this blog post. Her hair is so striking, even Arial from The
Little Mermaid would be jealous!

Go Beyond The
Cover: Behind the Scenes
A very simple, yet effective advert, where Zombie Boy (a man
covered with head to toe tattoos) has his entire body of tattoos covered with
some concealer, inciting ideas about “judging a book by its cover. I find it
really interesting, and is it odd I find him kind of attractive?!
I first found this video on OogleMakeup’s blog, probably one
of the eloquently written and insightful blogs dedicated to make up and beauty.
My favourite posts of her’s are usually about consumerism and the beauty
industry as a whole, as they are so often very thought provoking about society’s
perception of beauty.
That’s it! I really do hope you look at some of the
videos/pictures I have linked, as I find them so interesting!

AAAH the Zombie Boy is so cool!!!
