The Ting Tings


MikaMeka

Recommended Posts

I have a black t-shirt to wear to the concert with red iron-on letters that read:

 

"Are You Calling Me Bird?" :naughty:

 

I'd take a picture and show it here, but my hubby played paintball and forgot the camera. :thumbdown:

WOW:shocked: ok so i just downloaded my first Ting Tings song like 5 minutes ago and i loved it. The Ting Tings are amazing :punk: The song is called Great DJ and it is FREE on iTunes this week. If you love Alternative music you will love the this song. I also downloaded a new song by Santogold called L.E.S. Artistes and my oh my is it amazing:thumb_yello: There isn't very much good music out there anymore [except by our Mika of course] so when i do come across something amazing i am just dying to share so i hope you all enjoy these as much as i do :naughty: ROCK ON:punk:

That's not my name was the first I heard!

Then I heard Shut Up And Let Me Go, great also!:punk:

Thanks Sarie! :thumb_yello: I've got a few versions now to choose from. :naughty:

 

Well I removed the vocals from the album version on a music editor I have on my computer. Jule's voice isn't removed, because they mixed it in with the actual instruments when they made it in the studio.

 

So... some of the music gets muted/Katie's voice gets taken out, and you can pretty much hear what he says perfectly.

Oh, well then if that's the case...I sure like your version best! :naughty:

 

Awesome. :punk:

Hahaha.

 

The more I listen to it, though, the more it sounds like he says "Call a preacher, get some words and get some timin'."

He uses the word "preacher" in another song too...but it escapes me at the moment.

 

Anyhoo...here is the t-shirt I'm going to wear for their gig on Monday. It reads one of my favourite lines from "That's Not My Name":

Like I mentioned in the Apple thread, was tempted to draw a picture to symbolize "bird" or "giving the bird" :naughty:. But I thought better....

New video for 'Shut Up and Let Me Go'

 

Finally saw the new video -- watching FNMTV, so actually got to

see it on TV rather than PC.

 

I like it -- and didn't it look familiar? Then I saw who directed it --

Alex and Liane, who directed Mika's "Happy Ending" video. Ah, now

I understand. :)

Terrific night!

 

Awww, how cool, Suzy -- you got to meet them! I've been loving them

since January, when the BBC named them #3 on their "Sound of 2008",

you know the same poll that named Mika #1 in 2007 :thumb_yello:

They're coming to DC in July, I think, but it's when we're going to be

away. Anyhow, glad you had such a great time!

There's only one entrance to this club and there's a ramp from the street to the front door so the artists have to literally walk through the queue to get inside. Same thing when Mika played his first Toronto gig there.
