Happy Sunday everybody and I apologize once again for the day late post. But don't worry, starting football season I promise to minimize the amount of Sunday post to as much as possible. Anyways, it's time for another installment of "End of the Week." As usual, these are my picks for some of the week's bests. As always, I hope you enjoy.
Song of the Week: Cee-Lo's "F*** You" (Note: NSFW language, though it should be obvious from the title)
Look, if you're not a fan of songs with a lot of bad language, then this song is not for you. Otherwise, it's a pretty catchy song that so good, it's been going around all over the Internet. At least it's better than some of the new songs you hear over the radio.
Stories of the Week:
-The Actual Story of the Week: Last US Combat Troops Leave Iraq; Operation Iraqi Freedom Is Over
So...did we win?
- The Tiger Woods Saga of '09 Memorial Story of the Week: Tila Tequila Attacked at the Gathering of the Juggalos Festival
I'm blaming this one on the death of ASS DAN (1981-2009). May he rest in peace
/gratuitous 'SNL' reference
Video of the Week: "BBC Weatherman Shows Middle Finger on Camera"
Not a very great week in viral videos, so this one will do just fine. If you watch the video closely, it looks like he's saying "f-you!" then having a stroke in less than a second. Also, with the Cee-Lo song and this, it looks like this was quite a week for the F-Word.
Person of the Week: Musician Nick Pittsinger
for turning one of Justin Bieber's boring, uninspiring songs it into an out of this world 30 minute epic. A few days ago, the 20 year old aspiring musician and producer Pittsinger posted on the hosting site SoundCloud his version of the new Bieber single titled "U Smile." But instead of simply remixing it, Pittsinger decided on slowing it down 800x, turning the song from four minute in length to 35 minutes in length. What comes out of it is some eerie beauty transported through your hearing waves. Take a listen:
J. BIEBZ - U SMILE 800% SLOWER by Shamantis
Pretty awesome, huh? It's like something out of the "2001: A Space Odyssey" soundtrack with it's weird yet beautiful flow, or like something angels would sing when you go up to the pearly gates of heaven. It can also move you, make you wonder or freak you out if you're stoned. Basically, it's the complete opposite of the forgettable 4 minute original and something that even non-Bieber fans can enjoy listening to. So I honor you, Mr. Pittsinger. Even if you don't become a famous and super rich producer later on in your life as you probably hope to be someday, you will always have the credit of giving the world such a brilliant thing such as this.
Another week, another seven days you can't ever get back. Enjoy the end of your Sunday, everybody! Hopefully, we have another classic episode of "Mad Men" in a few hours.
Sincerely,
Your pal: mj15
