My Life Adventures and Thoughts

I covered my favourite song of 2014

Here’s an acoustic version of my favourite song of 2014. Even when all the electronics are stripped down, the melody still holds!

My favourite songs of 2014!

I’ve been listening and hunting for new music almost everyday this year! There were a lot of cool songs I found, these were the ones that stood out:

 

#5 – Rien A Paris – Liz & László

 

#4 – Satellites – EMA

 

#3 – Ciel est noir – Les Passagers

 

#2 – Malachite – Lydia Ainsworth

This song takes you on a fantasy journey, with beats. Ainsworth scores for film, that may have had an effect. Bonus: I can really appreciate a woman who composes her own music!

 

#1 – Capitol – Trust.

I love all the songs on this album (Joyland)! But Capitol STANDS OUT! What was going through his mind when he made this? I love love the creative touch of the Canadian loon at the end.

* Special note:

My favourite band is still Austra, they released an EP this year. But I am not putting them on my list. I can’t worship all their releases. Their EP had four experimental instrumental songs, and one pop song, that had creepy lyrics accompanied by a creepy music video.

 

I donated $10 to Wikipedia

I am letting the world know not because I want a pat on the back, but because I want to raise awareness and make this a more commonplace thing to do. Wikipedia must have single handedly raised the average IQ of all people on planet earth by 10 points.

As for those who say that Wikipedia is not an official source of information, STOP RIGHT THERE. IT IS A SOURCE TO FIND OFFICIAL SOURCES OF INFORMATION. READ THE CITATIONS. EACH SENTENCE HAS A CITATION. THIS CITATION POINTS TO AN OFFICIAL SOURCE OF INFO SUCH AS PEER REVIEWED JOURNALS, GOVERNMENT DOCUMENTS, AND REPUTABLE NEWSPAPERS. LOOK AT THOSE LINKS.

You can even go to the “talk” tab to see debates around grey areas.

There are countless number of volunteers that make sure that the information is unbiased and factual. We need to keep Wikipedia independent from commercial interests, that is why you don’t see advertisements.

So donate to wikipedia so they can keep on doing what they are doing!
