Remember when I promised I will upload Graham Coxon's new song "Desire" featuring Paloma Faith and Bill Ryder-Jones if I get permission from Converse? Well, I did get permission from their lovely Internet Team and I uploaded a lyrics video for the awesome new song.
Check it out HERE or watch below.
For those of you who don't know, I have a youtube channel that uploads everything Blur, Gorillaz, Damon and Graham....with bits and pieces of Alex and Dave. I'm making sure my account does not get suspended or removed, because there will be much less Blur in the cyber-sphere if I do get deleted.
So I'm chuffed I get to share with all of you and the world this amazing song DESIRE.
Do subscribe, rate and comment please! Keep me going!

Graham Coxon at Truck Festival 2011
A little about the festival...
Truck Festival is an annual independent music festival in Oxfordshire, England. It was started in 1998 by the Bennett family (including the brothers Robin and Joe of the band Goldrush), who decided that mainstream festivals such as Glastonbury had become too commercial and predictable. It is held in July at Hill Farm in Steventon, near Abingdon. The festival also gave birth to the Truck Records label in 1999.
Truck has grown somewhat since its inception, but with an annual attendance of around 5,000 it is dwarfed by the likes of Glastonbury (around 150,000 people) and Reading/Leeds.
The festival prides itself on its family atmosphere, with all of the site services being provided by local groups: the food stall is run by the local Rotary Club, and ice cream is sold by the local vicar. All profits from the festival go to charity.
A compilation album is released each year on Truck Records to coincide with the festival, featuring tracks (mainly studio recordings) from various bands playing at the festival.
This means Graham Coxon will be featured in yet another album in 2011, besides his own solo one, which will probably be out some time this year. I can't wait to see clips of him in Truck Festival!
Any opinions/ thoughts?

Blur and Gorillaz lose out on Grammy Awards 2011
Previously, I wrote about how Blur and Gorillaz were nominated for 3 awards in the Grammys 2011. Some awards were handed out yesterday afternoon. Sadly both bands did not pick up a trophy.
...and the winners were:
When You're Strange: A Film About the Doors (Best Long Form Music Video)
Blur's "No Distance Left to Run" was nominated for the same category but lost out to The Door's film "When You're Strange".
As much as I love The Doors, it's a pity indeed that they robbed Blur of its nomination.

Gorillaz screams "Pop" in their sound, artwork and just everything!
