#Musicologist : @Anouk Releases 4 Short Music Movies For Her New Album

Sad-Singalong-Songs-Limited-Anouk-060253737249

Dutch Rock Songstress Anouk recently won the half finals for the Eurovision Songfestival. Simultaneously she released 4 short music movies featuring songs from her latest album, Sad Sing Along Songs. The feel of the videos reflects the album title, melancholic with a dramatich black and white, sepia touch to it.

By winning the half final she gained alot of attention and extra downloads in Europe, hope that she can manage to win or maybe gain a good place in the top 3. It’s been the first time since 9 years that The Netherlands reached the finals of this oftenly overhyped event. Last years winner was a favo from mine though, the half Moroccan/Swedish Loreen dropped a bomb of a song with “Euphoria”. Let’s see what the finals bring, for now watch all the 4 videos below, enjoy…

A Written Article By Rivelino Rigters About The Global Economy

Dear Readers,

This is a written article by Rivelino “Blackrockstar” Rigters regarding the global economy because I’m kind of fed up with the politricks that are going one right now. For over 5 years the media has been brainwashing us with the so called economical creditcrisis, stating that the world is in a collapse because the system isn’t working no longer. Banks have stapled loan upon loan and used bad credit to gain their own fortune. I’m not saying that all banks are corrupt, I’m just saying that a large sum of the products like mortgages, creditloans, stocks and more have been sold and used in a way that in the end the small consumer had to pay. And why? All because of the moneygrubbing mindstate of some financial institutions.

The idea of increasing your money by selling a commercial product, on it’s own is not bad per se, on the contrary. If one creates a product that is benefecial to people in general than you would be doing consumers a pleasure cause it would probably mean that, that product with improve their quality of life. However, if that whole thing starts to become something that is sold with underlying motives to fool the public into buying a product that could mess up someone’s personal economical system, than that’s a thing that ought to be pulled of the market immediately in my opinion. Even so, if governments or ‘watch dog’ instutions are aware of these wrongs yet they turn a blind eye to it, wouldn’t it be fair that these governments receive a major fine or warning, just like these financial institutions?

The total reversed is happening at the moment, governments are ‘saving’ banks and financiel institutions cause otherwise ‘the system’ would collapse and the world would come to an end? So basically what they’re saying is, if we don’t keep these financial institutions alive they won’t be able to rip off the consumer anymore and no longer keep the economy running of our sore backs??

I’m not against running a good and healthy financial system run by honest financial institutions but I’m just not understanding why Governments can ‘save’ a bank and then rob the shareholders of their money ’cause it’s no longer a commercial company but now a state run one. Am I making sense to anyone? Would like to hear your thoughts one this…
