I spent my day off yesterday revamping some layouts from my old sites to be compatible with Nothing but Song. So I’ve added All These Things That I’ve Done (The Killers), Drive Faster Boy! (The Killers), Knock ‘Em Out (Lily Allen), Queen (Rachel Stevens), Teen Hearts at the Disco (Ryan Ross of Panic! at the Disco), and You Just Haven’t Thought of It Yet (Panic! at the Disco) to my stable of themes here.
Also I noticed that the Theme Switcher plugin doesn’t wanna play nice with the 2.1.2 upgrade for WP. It doesn’t like single apostrophes in the names of the themes, so I had to remove them to make them work. I thought I broke it when You Just Haven’t Thought Of It kept wanting to stay on whatever the default theme is.
I decided to make theme previews of all the themes here. I ganked the idea offa Janet. My theme previews aren’t as elaborate as hers, but I wanted to try it in my own way.
I also made my radio.blog a separate popup. Give it a go; it’s in the menu above.
Something came up, so I couldn’t go out with my friends tonight. I am stuck at home, blogging. I’m kinda glad I didn’t go. I’m really just beat up inside. I need some me time to unwind before school starts again next week, and find my inner peace again.
Stripping Nothing but Song of most of its projects helped a TON. What was the point anyways? I work and go to school full-time. Why continue to maintain projects that have become irrelevant in my life? As cliche as it sounds, I’ve grown up and moved on. I used to feel competitive when it came to my site. I had to have this, this, and this to compete with that person over there. Now, I don’t give a shit.
I love the piano intro to “Ending Start” by Metric. It’s so haunting. /random thought
Thus begins my music fangirling…
I’m also firmly in love with the song “Too Young to Fight It” by Young Love from the album of the same name. It’s hot, and the perfect spring/summer jam. I revamped my “Spring Break Jamz” playlist after I realised that track would be perfect for it. So even if you download the mix (in the previous entry), I kept adding and dropping things after I posted it, rofl.
Also, I have to do some pimping of Siobhan Donaghy’s new song as my domain is named after her song…
The first single from Siobhan’s new album will be Don’t Give It Up released 9th April on CD, beautiful 12″ picture disc and download. New B-sides include Givin’ In and Don’t Give It Up (Medicine 8 Dub Remix) and there will be all manner of download versions available. More details coming soon…
If you want, I can send you some tracks from the new album (which will be named “Ghosts”) that I’ve managed to snag. It’s gonna be a fantastic album, and already the buzz is starting. I have a feeling she’ll never crack America, so I can only get my Siobhan fix online. When I plan my gran turismo, I’m planning it around a live performance of hers or two. That’d be hella sick.
