Episode 10- The Gang Goes Commercial

Well hello, everyone!

This episode is CHOCK FULL of goodness. Its got everything! Robert Pattinson(Pattison? Patterson?), Twilight, commercials, music, videos, and MAGIC! Well, not REALLY magic, but still. That would be cool.

David pushes the show along at a blistering pace, with the whole Ignorant Bliss crew sliding face first into their Most Listened To for this week. This week has a theme! "Women with pianos". As you'll remember from last week's episode, David and Adam gave Leah a hard time (again) about always picking music that was pretty much just a girl and her piano. So this week, Adam and David decided THEY would pick some "girl and her piano" music. What did they pick? Read on to find out:

Adam's Pick: If You Were My Man (Demo)- Linda Perhacs (One of those two links is real. You figure it out)
Dave's Pick: Crowd Surf Off A Cliff- Emily Haines
Leah's Pick: Speeding Cars- Imogen Heap

There was no book to review this week! That's right. They've reviewed every book in existence.

When it came time to talk about a movie, the whole gang had something to say. Listen to every word, the subtle nuances and flow of the conversation and see if they liked the movie they saw. What movie did they see? TWILIGHT, of course! Here's the trailer (no bias, of course).

After the heated discussion over the Stephanie Meyers novel, the gang moves right along into territory previously uncovered by them. Music they like. "Well, they've done that!" you cry. But have they talked about music they like from commercials? No. They haven't. Sit back down. That's right. In this episode, David and Adam and Leah talk about their favourite commercials, and their favourite music from commercials.

Easily enough, this week's Video Of The Week came from this frank discussion. Here it is. Mr. Bucket:







Uhh... put your what? Jeez, Dave.

Here are the commercials Adam and Leah talked about:
Leah: Discover New Music
Adam: Urge Music (He said Sirius Satellite Radio. He was wrong.)

Here's the link to those hilarious Halifaxians "Picnicface".
Here's the link to that "Jerk It Out" song. Turns out, it was for the iPod Shuffle. The song's by "The Caesars".
Here's ANOTHER link. Its for the iPod Touch commercial.
Here's a link to something crazy AND Japanese!

The Song For The Lovers THIS week was by Mr. Sebastien Tellier once more. He's the king of love, apparently. The song was called "Pomme".
Here's how he describes it: "This is the song which is most representative of the whole album. I see it as the most erotic as well as the sweetest. The apple is the forbidden fruit. The sun waits until the lovers have finished making love before rising. He doesn't want to disturb them."
... what. a. visionary.

Mein Kampf 2: Twilight Boogaloo? Between making impressionable ladies have high standards (gasp!) and including bear hands, this movie sounds like it needs to be banned so hard.

Also, you know what other book/movie didn't show a lot of what happened?! No Country For Old Men, and it won an Oscar so it has to be good.
