Blur & Jimmy Fallon - Tender YTV

05/05/15 YouTube Video

It has been a while since I heard this song and upon hearing it today, it rekindled a flame in the back of my memory somewhere. Memories of good times and sing-a-longs with friends. It is nice to hear it done acoustically and I am not sure exactly if Jimmy Fallon adds much apart from the awkward high vocals but he is enough of a legend just getting this video recorded and posting it online for everyone to hear. Coxon soloing on the resonator guitar was my personal highlight. I hope you dig it as much as me. Enjoy!

D.O.T.F. Face Paint Album

Natalie Sharp Artist

This news piece may be a bit old now but I am only just getting around to talking about it. I have seen a few pieces from the artist Natalie Sharp and this face painted piece below is one of my favourites. It is the classic Joy Division album artwork expertly painted on a models face. The expressionless eyes being open add to the creepiness of the piece as a whole. Great piece of design and be sure to check out more of her other face painted album covers.

D.O.T.F. Album Covers

Design of the Fortnight

This came up on my Facebook feed and looked pretty cool so I checked it out. Basically, a guy who goes by Harvezt on Flickr has posted a load of different album covers with an image of what he imagines the back side of these covers would look like. One of my personal favourites is the Bruce Springsteen cover which I think has been cleverly done. There is also some cool Beatles and Strokes versions on his website, link is below.

Which one/ones are your favourites? Let me know below.
