All about Speed

" Just to clarify.we haven't made an album and this is not the start of yet another boring big sell campaign.When David & I recorded this track it was the only thing EMI would pay for us to do, and we decided not to try and impss but to do what we wanted and ignore all their advice.They dropped us without hearing it.I always promised we would put this out someday somehow, so Ifinished it off alone and pledged to pss up afew copies on my own.That was my dream, and Rough Trade kindly intervened and offered to take the burden off my hands.The dream remains as deliberately purist as the song: There is no sleeve because we have nothing to say that isn't in the song.There are no credits because we don't owe anybody anything.There is no video because they are always rubbish.There is no live version because Idon't have 3drummers.To go against the purist's opinion, there can be no purer way of psenting apiece of music than on aformat that you physically can't touch. And let's face it, they sound alright and if you say otherwise you're boring.It 's my baby.Take her or leave her, I don't care, but she's alady all the same. "-Bernard Butler.
While not hitting former heights, 'Speed'does enough to suggest that Butler could well be better off returning to McAlmont than buddying up with Brett Anderson in The Tears again.
'Speed', a track rejected by EMI back in 2003 prior to the duo parting company with both the label and each other, sees McAlmont keep the pitch slightly lower than before-for the most part at least-and while it lacks any definable chorus , that voice, and Bernard Butler's ever excellent axework keeps the song barrelling along nicely, albeit in aslightly mid-tempo way.Not 'speedy'then, but it still builds to asuitably anthemic climax-a catchy chant of "keep moving". < br /> 2009-04-26 All about "Speed" 1.Upon hearing Speed, McAlmont & Butler's then record company, EMI, weren't too happy.The track resulted in them being dropped and only now, three years later, has it been picked up for release through Rough Trade.One can assume the cloth-eared suits thought it didn't sound enough like Coldplay, for this is adecent, rather soulful tune.Against aslow drumbeat and lush backing, David McAlmont's voice soars beautifully.So kind of what you 'd expect, if more subdued than Yes.Be glad Speed was rescued.

3.When asinger becomes defined by one song, as David McAlmont seems to have been with'Yes ', everything they do subsequently is compared to that one track.So, is this as good as'Yes'? No.Is it aworthy effort in its own right? Certainly.
4.It 's been over adecade since David McAlmont - the velvet-vox singer who got his start supporting Morrissey on tour - last teamed up with former Suede guitarist Bernard Butler for aU.S.release, but the duo are back with aBritpop gem called "Speed." Full of triumphant yeahs and brilliant melodies, McAlmont & Butler's new track, which is slated for digital release Aug.8, flows with the brio of some of the'90s best swirling guitar pop.It meanders vibrantly, even as McAlmont meditates on life as arace: "Grab what you can keep it moving."
2.On August 8th, Rough Trade America will release "Speed", the new download-only single from McAlmont and Butler.This will be the first US release from legendary guitarist Bernard Butler (Suede, The Tears) and the iconic smooth-voiced singer David McAlmont, since their first album came out in US shops awhopping TEN years ago.This release is for fans of the duo's pvious musical incarnations and for anyone who loves sweeping guitars and unabashed melodies.

找到一个可以替代ghs.google.com的地址

用Goole Blogger的自定义域名功能需要用到 ghs.google.com 做CNAME,或者用ping ghs.google.com 得出的IP做一个A记录.但是,伟大的GFW已经把 ghs.google.com 和部分IP屏蔽在大陆之外.这样的壮举使得我们的自定义域名不能正常访问,或者让你的网页背景.图片被滤掉,精心做成的模板变得惨白不堪. 那么,我们可不可以找一个替代 ghs.google.com 的地址呢?当然能.因为Google是强大的.它有许多有用的IP地址让你去探寻. 对 ghs.google.com 分析研究后发现, ghs.google.com 这台服务器并没有提供实质性的服务,而只是选择访问者访问最快的服务器(Google全球性公司,很多地区都有服务器).我们只要找到其他服务器的IP地址,并且这个IP地址没被屏蔽,那么就成了. 寻找这样的IP地址需要用到tracert命令.即在CMD模式下输入:tracert ghs.google.com ,在已经屏蔽的当下,最后自然得不出结果,这就需要我们使用代理了.使用不同地区的代理运行tracert ghs.google.com 命令. tracert ghs.google.com 的最后一跳会有类似这样的域名: eh-in-f121.google.com 如果在不用代理的情况下,你能ping通这个域名,那么恭喜你,你找到了!现在就可以用这个域名代替 ghs.google.com 设置你的CNAME了,ping出的IP地址可以做A记录,CNAME和A记录,只做其中之一就可以. hs-in-f121.google.com 64.233.179.121 eh-in-f121.google.com 72.14.207.121 bx-in-f121.google.com 66.249.81.121 ik-in-f121.google.com 66.249.91.121 这4个在我所在地区不能使用,而可以使用 tw-in-f121.google.com 72.14.235.121 或者209.85.171.121也可用 下面是一些不断更新的:74.125.43.121 除了使用代理来寻找,也可以通过一些网站提供的功能来寻找这个地址,很方便,就是使用网站提供的Traceroute.这些网站有: h...
