Justin Bieber can form mobs
Nov 21st
LOL, so I posted about this kid the other day, right?
Well, apparently, yesterday he was planning on doing a mini performance and meet-some-fans deal at a mall. Well, apparently, there was some HUGEASS mob that showed up, like THOUSANDS of fans.
Needless to say, it got cancelled. Crowd control had to be called. Some mom broke her arm, and now one of Justin’s in-charge people is in custody cuz he refused to tweet, telling the rabid fans to go home.
The poor kid (who is apparently much more popular than I first assumed) isn’t at fault here, it’s just that his fans are idiotic little 10 year old girls (who were spotted at the mall alone) who can’t learn to you know, control yourself. Go have your fangasm elsewhere, please, and behave when you’re at the mall and are about to meet one of your favorite singers.
I caught a few articles on Zap2It, here and here. Check ‘em out for some laughs.
You can also read about it on his twitter. (Should I follow? :P)
Am I gonna have to make a Justin Bieber category? Lawl
Understanding my sister’s taste in music
Nov 17th
So in an effort to try and understand my sister’s taste in music a bit more, I’ve been attempting to listen to a local radio station KDWB. They fall more into the hip-hop poppy kinda stuff, rather than the (soft) rock that I normally listen to.
One of the singers on there happens to be some kid named Justin Bieber. The only reason I even looked it up is because I rather liked the lyrics to his song “One Less Lonely Girl” and wanted to check the video. It’s rather cute -- ranks up there with Plain White Tee’s 1234 in the “Awww” department.
Anyways, I thought I’d share this new talent, who appears to have gotten his start on YouTube. Whatcha know?
And then here’s his “main” song, One Time. First one is the official music video, second is an acoustic version that I actually rather liked. He does have a decent natural voice, which is better than most artists out there can say :-)
Here’s an old one, from before he got noticed. It’s a cover of “Angel” by Sarah Mclachlan and you can tell he’s still not great XD
OMG, another old one, where he’s singing Respect. His dancing makes me laugh. :3
Here’s a Lifehouse cover. I am a pretty big fan of Lifehouse, and I have to say that his version rather sucks… it’s too fast. But he tries, so that’s okay.
I didn’t look at rest of his videos, he covers a lot of songs that I simply do not know. HOWEVER. HOWEVER. There is one there that is beyond win. Beyond win.
Why? Because it’s from one of my favorite movies :)
YES! August Rush! That is a really epic scene, and I love the soundtrack for the movie. (Both, actually. The instrumental and the one with the vocal songs on it. Did you know there are two?)
Well, that’s it for now. Enjoy tonight’s random bit on some random kid that’s rather ugly. (His face isn’t laid out right…)
