QotD: Heartbreaker

What's your favorite heartbreak song?
Submitted by esta86.

My favourite is probably Here's Where the Story Ends, by Tin Tin Out.

Depending on my mood and the girl in question, Ordinary World by Duran Duran, Locked Out by Crowded House or even I Quit by Hepburn have all been soundtracks to heartbreak for me.

You'll not that my heartbreaks are very mainstream, very pop-y. How very teenage.

Eva Green's Premiere Style


Talking of Casino Royale, did anyone see the Premiere pictures from early in the week? Eva Green, who plays the love interest in the movie, was wearing an outfit that really blew me away.

It's really eye-catching, very sexy, yet a million miles away from the "slinkly cocktail frock" approach that usually seems de rigeur for these events.

Despite showing less flesh than any movie star ever at a premiere (Judi Dench was showing more skin, for goodness' sake), she still managed to make the front page of several newspapers. Good work, that lady.

Off to the pictures...

Off to see Casino Royale tonight. I'm more excited about this than any Bond film I've seen in years.

Back in LJ land (sorta)

You may have noticed that my Livejournal posts have dropped to almost nothing since Vox launched. I'm finding posting there a more satisfying experience.

Well, now I can cross-post to LJ from Vox, so you should be hearing a little more from me.


QotD: I Rock The Mic

What song makes you rock the karaoke mic?
Submitted by Ann.

No song does that. I last did karaoke about 14 years ago, and am in no hurry to do it again...

The RBI Brighton Experience

We had our annual Editors Conference in Brighton a couple of weeks ago. I was hoping to pull together some video of the event, but  I had precious little time, as it turned out. So, I've pulled together what I did shoot in this silly little video:
