nina simone was brilliant. she had such a powerful voice and wrote brilliant songs. muller make shit yogurt that gives you a headache when you eat it. the fact that they decided to use a nina simone song in their advert campaign in the first place was pretty bad but the endless bullshit resulting since is getting to be a bit much.
shortly after the ad featuring happy little twats jumping through the countryside and licking "the lid of life" (which i can only assume is a euphemism for fucking to get ahead) aired, and presumably boosted sales or some shit, a nina simone compilation album was marketed with a sticker on the front saying "features 'ain't got no/i got life' as seen on the muller ad!". so some great music is advertised to morons because they saw it on the advert from some yogurt. i don't care what you feelings on "people having their own opinion/all opinions are equal" thing, this is just shit. shit shit shit. please, tell me otherwise. shit.
but now, as if to see how far into hell they can push their souls, the muller ad agencies have just shat a brick of "gold" all over poor ms. simone's grave. changing the lyrics to fit in flavours of their bullshit product, this ill thought out ad features terrible syllable crushing, and uses tone death singers to overdub this pile of shit. you might as well get micheal bay to direct a remake of the godfather, after casting of shia labeouf as michael and nicholas cage as don vito, and russel brand as tom hagen. i fucking dare you.

welcome.
hi. here's a new blog where i hope to write well structure reviews of music releases new to me, films, television and pretty much anything else its possible for me to give my overzealous opinion of. i hope that when you read this you don't just take my word for it and experience things for yourself. you should even argue with me if i'm wrong, unless its something really awful because i'd hate you to waste your time.
anyway, hope you enjoy it.
