Teenagers

I was taking a look in some soundtracks, of series, movies and I just decided to hear this band, I looked at the name: “The teenagers” and thought; “probably has the same rythym of these new bands, singers.. like Cobra Starship or Lady Gaga” but I decided to give a shot and for my surprise I just found a great band playing a awesome music, I don’t what’s about this song at all.. but has a motivational thing, you know ?

I learned another thing just doing a click, I learned that I shouldn’t judge a band just for the name hahaha, man, this blog is getting like Dr. Phill’s show. Enjoy the video and enjoy this amazing song.

Pete Murray and his reflection power.

I have Pete Murray on my playlist a 4 years ago, he isn’t the example of surf music, surf singer but I cannot see him in another genre.  The effect of Pete’s song for me it’s simple, I really like to listen his songs when I’m trying to be focused on something or just think about life, decisions – lately, I’ve been listening a lot, having some weird sitations in my life, anyway, I’m not here to talk about personal things, I’ll talk about it on tumblr.

I have a few songs to share with you guys, specially this one: “Bail me out”, amazing – Now, if you wanna check my way to listen Pete Murray you should listen this “My time”, the lyrics of this song really can express a lot of my feelings. He’s just a awesome singer, using a “blues” sauce, he’s the one of my favorite singers. It’s a tip that I’m giving with a lot of pleasure, for sure.

Walls of wonder

We have so many covers of this song but some of this covers are so much special, have a special sauce. The original Oasis version is pretty awesome but I prefer in acoustic, I found this sauce in Ryan Adam’s version. Calm, something in this song make you think about things that you aren’t used to think.

People may listened this song in the tv serie, The Oc – I did, but I forgot about this version and yesterday I watched a movie with a pretty awesome version, with some banjo chord. If you have another great version of this amazing song, send me, tweet me, I’ll be glad to listen and share with everyone.

Howl! Howl! – Shout Out Louds

A indie band with a pop-rock style, from Sweden this band has so much great songs, I heard them when I watched the “Nick and Norah’s – Infinite Playlist”, they have great bands, if you’re a indie music fan, like me, you should watch the movie and take a look in the whole soundtrack.

I listened a lot of songs but I have a favorite one, “Please, please, please”, a great guitar rythym, it’s very “happy”. With no doubts they’re the classical indie style, the classic Fifa Soundtrack. They have a curious similiarity with The Cure. You should listen this band, a great tip for renew your playlist.

Five applauses to Serena Williams.

Five times, five deserved times. Serena Williams won her fifth title in Australian, now against Justine Henin, a ex champion who was retired of tennis circuit and got a chance to make up her ranking. A match with emotion, great shots, warning moments and a few surprises. I’m not here to talk about the match at all – tactics, things like that, I’m more to say the emotion of a championship match, specially a Grand Slam match, a final.

I really believe in Serena as a legend of women’s tennis, for sure, 12 Grand Slams titles isn’t easy more than that isn’t normal, only the legends made this happen. She has more to show, she will win more Slams, I’ve no doubts of it. Five titles in Australia, she’s a queen here in aussie, she knows how to play here and she made here a second home, the Rod Laver is her bedroom, the crowd are her neighbor. Another time on the top of the ranking, Serena ‘ve writting a spetacular career in tennis, with titles, with a impressive powerful match, a empathy tennis player.

She also has so many titles in doubles, so many Slams in doubles tournaments, with her sister, Venus. Congratulations Serena, you deserved this title and all of those 11.

It’s easy for him – Roger fights for his sixteenth title.

How easy it was for Roger Federer ? Tsonga was completely scared, out of the match, the whole time. In the first set we saw a lot of mistakes – of both of them, but Tsonga was making bad choices for winner’s balls. A easy first set for the number one, 6×2.

We started the second set waiting for some reaction, in this Australian Open we should call Tsonga the king of reaction, but didn’t happen. another easy set for Roger Federer, once again mistakes, scared and totally lost in the court. Tsonga wasn’t in a good day. Looks like he was completely surprised of being playing a Grand Slam semifinal but wasn’t the first time in a semifinal and in Rod Laver Arena.

The third set started and Tsonga started a great service game, aces and a couple of winners then Roger changed his tactic, powerfull service devolultion combinated with net strokes. Tsonga was keeping the mistakes, the same bad choices and the crowd was justing waiting for celebrate another winning of Roger Federer. With 5×1, Federer saw Tsonga take a last breath, a nice game of service to let Roger serve for the match. Applauses for the best tennis player in the history, that is what people think about Roger Federer, are they wrong ? Of course not, he is the best tennis player in the whole history, one more time, Rod Laver Arena will watch a epic match, another chapter of Roger’s history.

She never tires of titles.

Since 1995 Serena came to make the dream of excelent tennis players a nightmare. Has a magical career, won all Slam tournament’s (Australian Open, Roland Garros, Wimbledon, US Open), Olympic games too. She’s the most popular tennis player in world, for sure. With a own style, Serene is always battling for titles. After a tough match against Li Na, once again, she’s in the final of Australian Open, a impressive fact, she never lost a final in Melbourne, four titles (03, 05, 07, 09). She have e important match against Justine Henin who was champion in 2004.

Predictions for this match, a tough match for both of players. Good luck and all we, fans, are waiting for a epic match in Rod Laver.

Adiós Rafa Nadal!

Rafa was losing the match for two sets, Murray was playing very well, very strong in the background and using a powerful service. Rafa wasn’t making noise to Murray’s strategy, after a easy tiebreak in the the second set, I was sure that something wasn’t right with Rafael Nadal, who is now unable to defend all of the points he won in claiming the Australian Open title last year, world No. 3 Novak Djokovic is projected to replace him at No. 2 when the new rankings are published next Monday. Nadal could fall as low as No. 4 should Murray make it to the final, with the Scot expected to pick up enough points to leapfrog his vanquished opponent.

Strike three and your out.

First I like to say one thing, I never said: Hewitt is the favorite against Federer. So I have some things to say about this confront. When Hewitt was in the top of tennis he had a simple tactic, be agressive all the time, in the service devolution, in the background but Roger came using a slice style, very angle strokes and after that Hewitt never beat Roger again and probably he won’t to do that anymore, I know it’s tough for me to say that, as a aussie citizen but being honest, Roger isn’t irregular in the court, never. After that loss series Hewitt completely changed his tennis style, now he isn’t agressive, has easy background strokes, a breakable service, the only thing that survived was his special hability to service devolution. Was a completely easy match for Roger and as a gentleman he keep saying: “Lleyton is always a competitive player.” – For sure, I’ll keep cheering for this aussie mate, good luck in the rest of the year, mahalo.

My predictions for the next week in Melbourne complex.

I believe in Serena or Justine Henin being the champion of the women tournamente. Maybe Venus but after today’s match, she’s not playing that tennis. Samantha Stosur isn’t a surprise, since Roland Garros 2009 she ‘ve been playing a agressive and awesome tennis, specially because she has a nice service and great background strokes. Maybe the beauty girl who eliminated Sharapova can make some noise in the semi-finals even in the final but I really bet in Justine Henin as the champion of Australian Open 2010.

In the man’s tournament it’s completely hard to define. We can’t deny one thing, Del Potro and Rafa ‘ve been playing the best tennis. Roger Federer had some problems in the 1st round and he already have a important match tonight, agains my favorite tennis player, Lleyton Hewitt. Andy Roddick took a big step surviving against Fernando Gonzales. Andy Murray is going to play with Rafael Nadal, Rafa is the favorite in my opinion and he isn't just the favorite for this match but for the tournament. Novak had some problems too but as Federer, won. Nikolay is playing right now versus Fernando Verdasco - semifinalist in 2009 and they're going to last set, is 2x2 (6x2, 7x5, 4x6, 6x7) remembering one thing, there's no tiebreak in the last set.

Rafael Nadal being the champion of the men's tournament and Justine Henin in the women's tournament.
