The Contrabass Saxophone

I never thought that such a thing exists. It is larger than most men on earth, 1.90 meter tall, and very heavy (aprox 20 kg.)

It does not require an air compressor to play it, yet it does require big lungs and pretty strong arms to hold it.

If you want to know how it sounds just play the video below. I thought it was the sound of a man farting at the beginning, but after a few seconds I realized that it was just a different "music style"

Fligh of the bumblebee

Picture on the left: Dream Caused by the Flight of a Bee around a Pomegranate a Second Before Awakening (1944) - By Salvador Dalí


"Flight of the Bumblebee" is an orchestral interlude written by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov for his opera The Tale of Tsar Saltan, composed in 1899–1900. The piece closes Act III, Tableau 1, during the magic Swan-Bird changes Prince Gvidon Saltanovich (the Tsar's son) into an insect so that he can fly away to visit his father (who does not know that he is alive). Although in the opera the Swan-Bird sings during the first part of the "Flight", her vocal line is melodically uninvolved and easily omitted; this feature, combined with the fact that the number decisively closes the scene, made easy extraction as an orchestral concert piece possible.

Ok, so now that we know all we should need to know about the flight of the bumblebee, let's listen to some artists playing this masterpiece with different instruments. It is pretty funny and pretty fun too.


Violin



Guitar



Piano



Accordion



Flute



Euphonium

Awful Album Covers of Eastern Europe 70s pop stars

This is gonna be a lazy post. Just make sure you are siting and have nothing in your stomach, the following images could cause a big impact on you.

This stuff was found on http://www.thisblogrules.com/


Album covers of Eastern Europe 70s pop stars

Somewhere in Eastern-Europe back in 1970's, These were the actual album record covers of Pop stars. I'm not sure how "Good was it" for their album sales / Charts.
Some of the guys back then, had their own unique styles, one of them over 60 years old with "I am on top the world" attitude riding a satellite in space."Milance" is a big Casanova , a lady killer with Prince wannabe look.Then we found out that George Michael stole outlook image from big star "Zlatko" , "Bajo" with stylish suit and hair and old "Tozovac" raiding a cannon in very funny FAIL position.
Now I am thinking that Bajo and Saveta, lady from first picure, were acctualy dating back then

Britains Got Talent 2009 - Final -

After watching the videos I really wonder weather the contest is about music or not:

Video #1: Susan Boyle was supposed to win the final. She couldn't make it, yet I think she really deserved it. She is a fantastic singer with an amazing voice.

Video # 2: Diversity perform on the final of Britains Got Talent 2009. They do not sing... they do not play any instrument... they just dance... that's all

Frank Sinatra - That's Life


Frank Sinatra - That's Life
by Xavierdelnord

Frank Sinatra was also known as Ol' Blue Eyes, The Chairman of the Board, Frankie and my favorite one The Voice. All these names were really appropriated for a man like him, we miss you Frank.


LYRICS

That's life, that's what all the people say.
You're riding high in April,
Shot down in May
But I know I'm gonna change that tune,
When I'm back on top, back on top in June.

I said that's life, and as funny as it may seem
Some people get their kicks,
Stompin' on a dream
But I don't let it, let it get me down,
'Cause this fine ol' world it keeps spinning around

I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate,
A poet, a pawn and a king.
I've been up and down and over and out
And I know one thing:
Each time I find myself, flat on my face,
I pick myself up and get back in the race.

That's life
I tell ya, I can't deny it,
I thought of quitting baby,
But my heart just ain't gonna buy it.
And if I didn't think it was worth one single try,
I'd jump right on a big bird and then I'd fly

I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate,
A poet, a pawn and a king.
I've been up and down and over and out
And I know one thing:
Each time I find myself laying flat on my face,
I just pick myself up and get back in the race

That's life
That's life and I can't deny it
Many times I thought of cutting out
But my heart won't buy it
But if there's nothing shakin' come this here july
I'm gonna roll myself up in a big ball and die
My, My

The pirates are going to jail

The pirate bay is probably the world's largest biotorrent tracker. Those guys are having some problems with the Swedish law and could be going to spend a whole year in prison.

They are not going to give up the fight, they know that in the end the victory is for heroes, villains can only win the first battles yet they will be defeated sooner or later. Hollywood taught them this lesson, in fact it was the only thing they ever learned from Hollywood.

In case you want to know more about this epic war, just click here. They will inform us from time to time, you can also watch the video above, it is supposed to be kinda press conference.
