In 2010, Lady Gaga’s The Fame Monster sold more copies – 5.8 million – than any other album in the world, according to German website MediaTraffic.de’s United World Chart. The chart takes into account the weekly charts from January 16, 2010 through January 8, 2011, so there is still a week left for additional sales to alter final figures.
23rd Underpass is a band that we first got to know in 2008.. The basic concept was to share their music perspective in the Italo disco comeback that was happening in all European capitals. Even they didn’t get to experience the original 80s aura (as they are all so young) they manage to release two songs that carry all the mellow feeling and sound of that beloved decade. The songs were released to the market in 2009 by Iventi records in 12” inch vinyl maxi singles and they were called Sometimes and You’ll Never Know. Recently, I got a press release regarding their upcoming (second) live performance at Mad Club, Gazi, Athens, Greece and I tried to follow up with the group, see where they stand now.. Well, the best part of all, is their video clip of You’ll Never Know. But read on to find out more..
Sometimes going into a movie with diminished expectations can be helpful. “Little Fockers” is the third film in what one could either call the “Parents” or the “Fockers” or the “Meet The” series. Its predecessors were, most people know (or else there wouldn’t be a third one, right), 2000’s “Meet the Parents” and 2004’s “Meet the Fockers.” The hook for “Parents,” of course, was pairing Ben Stiller’s patented tightly wound schlub persona with/against Robert De Niro’s tightly wound, maybe even potentially homicidal, tough-guy persona. And the former persona would be proposing to marry the daughter of the latter persona. Get it? You’re dating a woman and you think it’s going great, and then you find out that her dad is Travis Bickle/Al Capone/Max Cady, etc. etc. Hilarity is bound to ensue.
