One of my all time fave band MAE is re-releasing their first album Destination:Beautiful with a DVD! too excited. Though it'll be released next year, but I'm still crazy excited. (for full details check it here).
Nowadays I dont buy CDs as often as I used to, 'cause I'm majorly broke. I do miss it, it's just not the same, I like having the physical CD in my hand, going through the lil booklet, looking at the album art, everything that completes the whole experience (especially with concept albums). I dont know, there's a lil bit more of an appreciation. I'm sure people will say it's suppose to be about the music, I totally agree but it's not the same when all your music is just sitting in your computer or in your ipod (soon to be forgotten about). One day I'd like to be cleaning my room ("one day" ha!) and find a lost random CD that I hadnt listened to in forever and just have all those feelings I had when I first bought the CD, how old I was, why I bought it, how it made me feel and popping it into the good ol' discman ;).
Random embarrassing fact: the first Cd I ever bought (I still have it somewhere in the house, and every time I do find it, it makes me cringe) was Niki Webster's Strawberry Kisses (I know, I know the shame of it all *hanging head low*) I still remember seeing the ad on tele back when I was about 11 years old and begging my mum to buy it for me, then putting it on replay everyday (for a really really long time) and even...*hanging head even lower* dancing to it....
So in the rare occasions when I do buy CDs I usually buy the special editions with DVDs, it's so much more worth it (who doesnt want to see more of their fave bands eh?). So I'll definately be buying the Mae CD ;).

ok this is me rambling on about what i like- so i'll just stop.
ok bye!
Umm...if Twee can be imagined listening to STRAWBERRY KISSES then how could imagining YOU listening to the same song at that age be weird? Besides, i used to love that song. So up beat and all. I would still like it if i wern't already sick of it. Sick to the core. Though, dispite Nikki Webster's catchy songs, i don't like her. She's so in-your-face. Well back in the day.
I'm not ashamed of liking her songs. "I've been missing your strawberry kisses, cuz nothings that sweet, the taste still drives me craaaazy..." LOL. Why not?
I'm not ashamed at all. Hah! You guys go ahead and mope. Mwahahah!!! I don't give a butt about what other people think. Oh hoh hoh hoh! Look at me going on and on offending people! Gosh. Ok, shut up jenn.
Oh, Mae is re-releasing Destination Bea-u-ifal hey? awesome! Though i sure aint as hyped as you. I've got other things to keep me hyped up causing this little fact to be an old banana peel rather than a juicy mango.
I think my first CD was...oh yea, it was FRESH. Yea...boring!
