Daughtry - Poker face

around the web, music

Probably the best version ever, and one of the greatest songs I've heard the last days. It kicks fraking arse.

music, around the web

90% of cover songs are worse than the original, but this is one of the 10%. Behold, Dream On with Malmsteen & Dio!

Cranius and Summergale - Ulduar

Saturday, 11. April 2009, 11:12:19

music, World of Warcraft, gaming

Eventhough I am not a big fan of rap, Cranius, famous for his Big Blue Dress and Darrowshire, and Summergale, famous for her work with Nyhm in, amongst others, Ni Hao, are doing a superb job together in this song. It's really catchy and it's been running through my head since I saw it the first time.

Yeah, I know, it's a bit overgeeky and World of Warcraftish, but still.

Finally back on my feet again.

music, computer

Well, not really my feet, but my computer's back up and running. This morning I restarted it for a kernel upgrade, but ... no, it didn't want that. So I downgraded to my old kernel again, but then suddenly my sound stopped working. "What the hell", I thought, and most of my day went to recompile the kernel over and over and over again. And suddenly, just before 16:00, the sound started working again. Not that I had done something herocally different, but this time I compiled "sound support" as built in and ALSA support as a module. I am quite certain I had tried that before, but this time it actually worked. \o/

In either way; Machinae Supremacy - Flagcarrier is a very nice tune. I feel happy when I hear it. Especially from 4:00 and out. Does it sound familiar to you? Played Final Fantasy VI perhaps? Does it remind you of the masterpiece Terra's theme? Methinksyes. Awesome tunes.

O Come All Ye Faithful / O Holy Night

christmas, music

This song by Trans-Siberian Orchestra is truly amazing. I've been playing it for the past month on my guitar, and it feels sooooo good when those high notes hit.
