New Ke$ha Single: Listen to 'C'Mon'

I can't believe that Ke$ha's song 'Die Young' has been around for 2 months now! She took her damn time getting the illuminati drenched video ready, but anywho. Next single off her upcoming album Warrior is 'C'mon'.


The track sounds like exactly like a Ke$ha song, and that isn't a bad thing at all, I love her 'cock pop'!! But this song seems to be missing the relentless stuck-in-your-head lines from previous Ke$ha hits... Time will tell how well this does, but I'm a fan anyway! See below for the song :)





If there are any tracks you think I would enjoy, give me a heads up on Twitter @ArrrnBoyle. I'd love to hear your recommendations!!

Thanks for reading :)

Scream And Shout!!!

You are now-now rockin' with Will.I.Am and
Britney Bitch




Bit late on this one, I went to Cardiff this weekend & was far too drunk to post anything..!
I'm not a particularly big fan of Will.I.Am and I wasn't expecting this track featuring Britney to be any good, but.... her British accent, that iconic line.... I'm sold. So glad it isn't as awful as their last collab, and the remixes to this should be pretty good.
 
Thanks for reading!

I hear the birds on the summer breeze, I drive fast

When I first set out to write a blog I never intended for it to be so focused on technology, and it wasn't until had a proper look at my page that I realised I haven't posted anything but iPhone-related blogs in way too long... So I'm fixing that now with 5 of my most recommended tracks from the likes of Lana Del Rey and No Doubt for you all!

I've been meaning to write another music post, but I've been so busy recently that I haven't been able to keep up with new releases let alone decide what stuff I like enough to write about. But today is a lazy Sunday and my boyfriend is angrily watching the football (QPR don't seem to be doing too well...) so I'm grateful for the opportunity to plug my headphones in and listen to some music.

First up is an artist who hasn't managed to break into the mainstream yet (although I swear I heard one of Jedward reference her once on Alan Carr's Chatty Man...) I don't remember when I first came across her music, but am tempted to say it was back in the days of MySpace. Her name is Sky Ferreira. Although I could recommend tonnes of her music to you, simply because Sky doesn't make any bad music, I'm picking 'Lost In My Bedroom' from her recently released EP Ghost.


I heard a clip of this song on her soundcloud account months ago & loved it instantly. Her echoing voice above the pumping beat is constantly stuck in my head. I'm a big fan of Sky and it frustrates me to no end that I can't buy her music on iTunes in this country, forcing me to get her music by... other methods. Anyway, I think it's just a matter of time until she has a breakthrough & I suggest you check out her discography because her music catalogue is diverse enough for everybody (even some for you little indie kids!).

My next pick is No Doubt's 'Looking Hot'. The video to this song has been at the centre of controversy since it was released, and since removed from their YouTube page. I find it hard to see what is so offensive about the video, but who am I to judge. I've found the video elsewhere, so have a look and listen below! (Before it gets taken down...)

iPhone 5 Wallpapers

Earlier I posted about the bug that was shipped with the iPhone 5, and I got a response that made me think it would be a good idea to put some of my favourite wallpapers that fit the new iPhone 5's display.

I've made a public photostream for them that you can find here. I'll update that photostream as I find new wallpapers that I like. I have an iPad too, so if I find any particularly nice ones for my iPad (I'm actually using a stock one for my iPad at the moment) I'll add them into there too. So in short, you might want to save that link! Aha. (Note- it would seem you need to be logged into icloud.com for the link to work.)

Anyways, here they are. I hope you like them! My favourites are the highway and the blueish white galaxy.

The iPhone 5 shipped with a flaw?!

Helloooooo! Oh God, It's been almost two months since I last posted....!! I know it sounds like I'm making excuses when I say I've been busy, but I honestly have! Moving, job applications, three hour job interviews (an addiction to an iPhone/iPad game called Hay Day - definitely recommended!) .... I've been so busy I only managed to catch up on music earlier this week! Anyway enough with the BS, on with the post!

Earlier this week Apple released an update to its iOS software, coming in the form of iOS 6.0.1. Usually these minor updates don't contain anything interesting & are just bug fixes - iOS 4.0.1 was released to 'fix' the bad reception issue that plagued the iPhone 4 (to no avail, by the way.) This update has a particularly interesting twist, however.

Hands-on with iOS 6 - here's what I think!

Hey guys! I managed to update my iPhone to iOS 6 earlier today. (I'll be writing about how you can get it early for yourself shortly, it's ridiculously easy so everybody can do it.) I've gone through it all so I can talk about & show you all what's new & what I think of it all. Please note that I'm using an iPhone 4 so I don't get all of the updates included eg. Siri and 3D maps, but I get the majority of them (definitely enough to talk about!) so let's go!

(Apple is the king of hype - 'most advanced' lol.)
Let's start with the AppStore. I can't remember the last time Apple's little moneymaker got given a new dress, but looks like today's the day! The store is all new & updated. It looks very swish & modern looking, the main page in particular is a lot more appealing.

New Lily Allen! And Xtina! And... Rihanna? And more!

Long overdue! A post about music.

I've come across some tracks I'd like to share with y'all, and also talk about some music that is upcoming, too. I've recently got a tonne of new albums so I'll be sharing some of the hidden gems in those in a future post.

I've spoken about Pink on here before, her single 'Blow Me (One Last Kiss)' is still one of my favourite songs of the summer so far. I'm mega excited for her album The Truth About Love to come out on September 17th. I heard that one of her tracks had leaked and so I decided to check it out. This is called 'True Love' and is a song about hating somebody so much that you must love them. 'You're the only love I've ever known, but I hate you, I really hate you, so much I think that it must be True Love.' I actually really like it, ha. So as I was enjoying this song, chuckling at how cheerfully miserable the lyrics are, another songstress comes in around the 2:40 mark. It couldn't be... No? She doesn't record music any more? But wait.. No, it sounds just like her!!! Oh my God, she was seen leaving a studio a couple months ago...!! NONE OTHER THAN MS. LILY ALLEN, GUYS! (She's married now, so is actually Lily Rose Cooper.)

You can't ignore it- iPhone 5 is here.

Well. What do you all think of Apples latest & greatest?


I sorta feel bad for Apple. CEO Tim Cook (who is also a fellow homo yaaaay!) said earlier this year that Apple was 'doubling down on secrecy' following multiple devices leaking ahead of Apple's unveiling. Ironically, virtually every single thing about this new iPhone was known before the event went ahead yesterday. I was getting updates via twitter while I was at work last night, (Yeah, that whole 'gay housewife' thing is a bit of a ruse) and couldn't believe that everything I was reading was what had already leaked.

But let's have a look at the features, shall we?
