BenJen's Blog

Welcome to my blog. A place where you may not find consistency, but where you will find various rants and irrelevant anecdotes, and 'witty' text on the subject of whatever crops up into a poor student's mind.
Please, do try to enjoy it... Constructive criticism is more than welcomed.

Have a nice day now, chaps and chappettes.

Warning: May contain traces of football, video games, and musical ramblings... It's mostly the latter, in truth.

My Music Guilty Pleasures: #5

Can Bonomo - Love Me Back



Trust me on this one - I'm psychic. Are you thinking "What the fuck?" or words to similar effect? I knew it, and I don't blame you. Put your hands up if you love Eurovision! C'mon, let me see 'em! Anybody...? Y'see, the Eurovision Song Contest is one of the worst televised events of the year. The music is consistently crud, 'cept for a couple of notable rarities (HARD. ROCK. HALLELUJAH!!!), the territorial voting system is a complete sham, and crucially, it goes on for-fucking-ever. I'm a die hard viewer though. I mock the singers, overdub their vocals, scrape the barrel to find a favourite, bet on a winner, and tweet like the angriest little runt online. It's all good fun. Back to Can Bonomo though...no, I don't know either... Don't worry, I know this song is utter pap. But I like it a lot! It's worryingly catchy, and the slap bass is simply delicious in the guiltiest of guilty ways. Even if you hate the song (which you really should, for humanity's sake) there's entertainment value to be had, thanks to the overall ludicrousness of the official video. Asinine.
