Mijn 2012 in muziek

Dec 18, 2012, 3:29pm Duurt Lang

Decembermaand lijstjesmaand. Dus kun je ook hier op Duurt Lang een overkill aan terugblikken en lijstjes verwachten. Omdat elk lijstje persoonlijk is en elk jáár ook, geef ik je graag mijn eigen top 1o lijstje (in willekeurige volgorde en met 1 bonusnummer) als een persoonlijke terugblik op 2012. Dit zijn de nummers en artiesten die ik het afgelopen jaar het meest heb gedraaid, het meeste heb gewaardeerd, die ik live heb gezien en die voor mij het jaar 2012 een extra kleur hebben gegeven. Helaas was de door mijzelf gestelde en beperkende voorwaarde dat ik maar 1 liedje per artiest [...]

Ny spellista. Ingen har väl missat Gotye's låt "Somebody that I used to know", men någon kanske har missat den fantastiska covervideon av Walk of the earth, grymt bra!

Somebody That I Used to Know

Feb 11, 2012, 10:07pm Rockstar Aimz

The only time I listen to the radio is when I drive. The only time that I drive is when I need something that is not accessible by the subway system (my curling club, Target, Ikea, other things in the 'burbs). I don't even own a car, and use a Zip Car maybe 3 to 4 times a month. The last two times I was oot and aboot I caught the song "Somebody That I Used to Know" by the Belgian-Australian artist Gotye . It's a catchy song - simple melody, easy lyrics, interesting instrumentation, [...]

The internet is magical. Don't you ever forget that. A few weeks ago, it seems the whole world caught on to the band Walk Off The Earth  and a little video they did covering Gotye's "Somebody That I Used To Know."

What you need to know about Walk Off The Earth is that they're not a cover band; they're a band that did a cover (okay, okay, they've done a few ) that [...]

ROAD TRIP!

Yeah. you might have thought that with Coachella doubling up on their event in 2012, by having the exact same show two weekends in a row, might mean that you had some time to figure out if you could make the show. If you thought that, you would be screwed. I knew better, and waited online to buy my tickets right at 10am when they went for sale. It's probably not good form to brag that we have tickets when you don't. I bet you have been to the festival before. This is our [...]

Walk Off The Earth Finds Success With Unique Cover Song Videos

Jan 17, 2012, 1:00pm Hypebot

Leveraging the power of the cover song is a topic that fascinates me so I was particularly pleased to encounter Walk off the Earth's cover of Gotye's "Somebody That I Used to Know." It's a great example of a cover song and music video whose creative approach manages to evade the novelty label while helping build their reputation for unique covers. It's also a great jumping off point for considering the possibilities for building your own brand with cover songs in music videos. Walk Off The Earth , based [...]

Walk Off The Earth - Gotye Cover "Somebody That I Used To Know"

Jan 16, 2012, 7:42pm Ear It Now

So, apparently this video has just gone VIRAL. I'm talking over 23 million views in the last few weeks alone. So, I'm probably one of the last people with a computer to talk about it. But, in my humble opinion, it's still well worth posting just in case you a) haven't seen it or b) need to see it again. A good cover is hard to find. You want it to sound enough like the original so that you still actually enjoy the song, but it needs to have enough character on its [...]
