A number of years ago myself and a few friends did the who coke and Mentos thing which I’m sure most of you are aware of by now however if not, then allow me to explain. Basically when you add the sweets Mentos to diet coke it causes an subtle explosion from pressure in the bottle. I suppose a video would better explain:
Now the reason I’m blogging about this now is that just last night I came across a little contraption which was close in design to that which my friends and I discussed about all those many years ago, we even dabbled with the idea of making such a thing but never took it any further. It amused me and reminded me of days gone by, so I thought I’d share.
My blog also sends this article out to Facebook, I’m not sure it will include the image as I’m never tried before, if not then please click this link to see the original article and image: Auroral.co.uk
I was browsing the web minding my own business when I stumbled upon this dark black French website, they had this media player there so I pressed play being inquisitive, you know as you do and this tune started to play, now forgive my ignorance if this has or is currently featuring in the charts as I usually avoid all forms of modern pop-shite, but I couldn’t get this tune outta my head, I kept returning over and over again to have another listen.
It was driving me nucking kuts, so I thought I’d add it here and let everyone have a listen, this guy may of been around a while, and this song maybe a remake, I really don’t know I just find myself drawn to it.
I don’t know what it is, don’t think it’s the lyrics, perhaps it’s the voice mixed with the melody.
I’m into various kinds of music, I was brought up on Neil Diamond, Neil Sadarka, Boney-M, my father was also a huge fan of Diana Ross. As a side note if any has a copy of the Boney-M song covered by Turisas the song is called Rasputin, I just think they did a rather cool cover (Metal unlike the original), I’m also a big fan of Queen especially Brian May, you know that’s damn right rude of me I can’t single out one of them for being the better, they were all bloody fantastic, end of but please no more boy band covers it hurts my ears sometimes.
Did I just say boy bands, hmmm that’s a huge over statement, sorry let me retract that statement and start a fresh, here we go……
Please no more karaoke singer covers.
