If I'll remember this year..It'll be for it's music
For the tears
And for the fear
I'll definitely forget about
The stress
Loneliness
And distress
By, of and for; Me!

Well now, I was in a larger city of Sweden than mine last weekend.. without money or a place to stay.. why? Because me and my friend were trying to get a little insight for our one-year school project we are supposed to do this year, as you might have guessed; we chose homelessness as our "topic". All I can say is that I (when I got home in the middle of the night) showered, ate a whole pizza without getting all too full, watched some anime and went to bed and slept for 13 hours (as I was tired, hungry, dirty, frozen and bored (this was the most unexpected one)). And now I've almost wasted a whole week being free from school.. I guess I'll try to work on school work the rest of the weekend but I don't think I'll get to do all that much. Wish me luck!
And now; my second list of things on this blog! (The first one was in; http://theoneiwasyesterday.blogspot.com/2009/05/this-is-sample-of-what-my-blog-could.html)
Top 5 quite new albums!
Now, just like last time I'll explain a little bit why; I really looked forward to October 14th because Melissa Horn's second album was released and Markus Krunegård at the same time released two albums.. and when I think about it; many great albums have been released during the last weeks or months (just like there were many great releases this spring like The Fray, Söder Om Kärleken, Dancing The Whole Way Home, No Line On The Horizon, Working On A Dream and FREE) .. So I've made a list; top 5 quite new albums..!
1. Säg ingenting till mig by Melissa Horn
- Because it is wonderful and everything I hoped it would be, the songs are really great and I think they have a lot of heart. Unlike all of the other albums on this list, there is not a single song that I don't like or something like that. The voice, lyrics and everything else is great and emotional. My favorite song; Hur ska det gå?
2. I Told You I Was Freaky by Flight Of The Conchords
- I've been listening to Flight Of The Conchords since the beginning of this year I think, and they've got funny songs with great melodies and so on so you can listen to them for that aspect of it too, the humor is, in my mind often a little more subtle than Stephen Lynch or "Wierd Al" Yankovic. This album didn't disappoint me at all and I think it's even better than the album "Flight Of The Conchords" from 2008. My favorite song; Rambling Through The Avenues Of Time.
3. Hip Hop by Ken Ring
- I completely love some of the songs on this album and some of them are not really of my taste even though I can see why they're great songs (Like "Kör på"). "Ber en bön" is really great and emotional and as I've told you my in a previous post; my friend was not well some time ago.. and I really could relate to this song in many ways (Here's a great live-version from a Swedish morning show; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vZ-MYrSDObI). There are more emotional songs like "God Morgon", overall great lyrics and great beats and music, really. My favorite song; Ber en bön.
4. Tänk om jag ångrar mig och sen ångrar mig igen by Lars Winnerbäck
- To tell the truth, I was a little disappointed with this album, it's not completely what I hoped it would be, I still like it but it feels like something is missing. I guess I'm going to love it in a few months but right now it's not one of my favorite albums from Lars Winnerbäck. It could be the change in instruments used but I don't really think that's it. Oh well, there are great songs on it after all and I do like the album very much, it's on this list after all! "Jag får liksom ingen ordning" and "Fribiljett mot himlen" are both great and "Berätta hur du gör" is a great finish with a calm atmosphere to it. My favorite song; Jag får liksom ingen ordning.
5. Prinsen av Peking by Markus Krunegård, Lev som en gris dö som en hund by Markus Krunegård and Odenplan, Stockholm 1988 by Mange Schmidt. I'm kind of disappointed with all of these, I love them but they could, in my eyes have been so much more. I will grow to love the albums even more I think but right now I feel like I like the artists previous works more. The two albums from Markus Krunegård are different from each other when both of them should have (in my eyes) been a mix of them both, I don't really like the instruments and they both start out.. well.. not so great, both of the albums are like a million times greater in the later songs, somewhere from the sixth song on both of them. My favorite songs; New York, Barn från rödastan and Håll Käften Del III - Feat. Thomas Rusiak & Eye-N-I.
On the gaming front; Uncharted 2 is greater than I thought and BlazBlue still rocks (I played both of them at Kenny's place this week, I played BlazBlue the first time some month ago or something). And Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 didn't disappoint; Deadpool is now one of my idols.
About that video I did a voice for... here it is;

I did the voice for Otaku, the one with blue hair and glasses.. Oh and also; If you want to understand a little better what's happening.. here's the first episode; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SZfeUP2POac
I hope you enjoyed, I'm having trouble saving my first youtube-video, I'll try to fix that.. and maybe update this post with the link to the video if I get it right, have a nice day.
Oh, here's a picture I made a long time ago in paint;
