Fitzpleasure
"Fitzpleasure" is a song by British alternative indie pop quartet alt-J from their debut studio album. Music video A music video to accompany "Fitzpleasure" was released on YouTube on November 5, 2012, with a total length of three minutes and forty-one seconds. French director Emile Sornin created the music video to be all black and white clips. The clips show a rundown, large city filled with gangsters, an old man with a tongue for an eye, prosthetic limbs, an old man with two faces (one in front and the other in the back of the head), contorting gang-like dancers, and mobsters. Remakes and TV airings After seeing the band perform live, Jim James, lead vocalist, guitarist, and songwriter for My Morning Jacket said, "...It kind of gave me this good, foreboding feeling. It was like seeing one of the great bands very young." This encouraged James to remix the song, and his 'Apple C' remix was included on the deluxe edition of ''An Awesome Wave''. The song was used by Miley Cyrus du ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

The Bangerz Tour was the fourth concert tour by American singer Miley Cyrus. It was held in support of her fourth studio album, ''Bangerz'' (2013).

A show in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic was banned by the government citing moral grounds. The tour was noted for its sexual imagery. Described as "campy", "surreal", and "raunchy", it received predominantly favorable reviews from critics, who praised Cyrus' stage presence, vocals, originality, and self-mockery. It was the 16th highest-grossing tour of 2014, earning $62.9 million. Footage from the shows at Barcelona and Lisbon was filmed, airing on NBC on July 6, 2014. It was then released on DVD ...

Experimental Rock Songs
An experiment is a procedure carried out to support or refute a hypothesis, or determine the efficacy or likelihood of something previously untried. Experiments provide insight into cause-and-effect by demonstrating what outcome occurs when a particular factor is manipulated. Experiments vary greatly in goal and scale but always rely on repeatable procedure and logical analysis of the results. There also exist natural experimental studies. A child may carry out basic experiments to understand how things fall to the ground, while teams of scientists may take years of systematic investigation to advance their understanding of a phenomenon. Experiments and other types of hands-on activities are very important to student learning in the science classroom. Experiments can raise test scores and help a student become more engaged and interested in the material they are learning, especially when used over time. Experiments can vary from personal and informal natural comparisons (e ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
2012 Singles
1 (one, unit, unity) is a number representing a single or the only entity. 1 is also a numerical digit and represents a single unit of counting or measurement. For example, a line segment of ''unit length'' is a line segment of length 1. In conventions of sign where zero is considered neither positive nor negative, 1 is the first and smallest positive integer. It is also sometimes considered the first of the infinite sequence of natural numbers, followed by 2, although by other definitions 1 is the second natural number, following 0. The fundamental mathematical property of 1 is to be a multiplicative identity, meaning that any number multiplied by 1 equals the same number. Most if not all properties of 1 can be deduced from this. In advanced mathematics, a multiplicative identity is often denoted 1, even if it is not a number. 1 is by convention not considered a prime number; this was not universally accepted until the mid-20th century. Additionally, 1 is the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
