Indie Pop
Indie pop (also typeset as indie-pop or indiepop) is a music genre and subculture that combines guitar pop with DIY ethic in opposition to the style and tone of mainstream pop music. It originated from British post-punk in the late 1970s and subsequently generated a thriving fanzine, Independent record label, label, and club and gig circuit. Compared to its counterpart, indie rock, the genre is more melodic, less abrasive, and relatively angst-free. In later years, the definition of ''indie pop'' has bifurcated to also mean bands from unrelated DIY scenes/movements with pop leanings. Subgenres include chamber pop and twee pop. Development and characteristics Origins and etymology Both ''indie'' and ''indie pop'' had originally referred to the same thing during the late 1970s. Inspired more by punk rock's DIY ethos than its style, guitar bands were formed on the then-novel premise that one could record and release their own music instead of having to procure a record contra ...

English Language
English is a West Germanic language of the Indo-European language family, with its earliest forms spoken by the inhabitants of early medieval England. It is named after the Angles, one of the ancient Germanic peoples that migrated to the island of Great Britain. Existing on a dialect continuum with Scots, and then closest related to the Low Saxon and Frisian languages, English is genealogically West Germanic. However, its vocabulary is also distinctively influenced by dialects of France (about 29% of Modern English words) and Latin (also about 29%), plus some grammar and a small amount of core vocabulary influenced by Old Norse (a North Germanic language). Speakers of English are called Anglophones. The earliest forms of English, collectively known as Old English, evolved from a group of West Germanic (Ingvaeonic) dialects brought to Great Britain by Anglo-Saxon settlers in the 5th century and further mutated by Norse-speaking Viking settlers starting in the 8th and 9th ...

Moving To New York
"Moving to New York" is a song by the English band the Wombats, taken from their debut album ''A Guide to Love, Loss & Desperation''. It was originally released as a non-album single on 7-inch, in limited edition packaging, on 26 October 2006; it was re-released on 14 January 2008, two months after the release of the album. "Moving to New York" is considered one of the band's signature songs. Like one of their other signature songs, " Let's Dance to Joy Division", the song was written by lead singer Matthew Murphy after an experience he had at a nightclub in the band's home city of Liverpool; however, whereas "Let's Dance to Joy Division" was inspired by spending a joyous night out with his then-girlfriend, Murphy wrote "Moving to New York" after being told by a girl he liked that she was going to stay in for the night before he went out to a nightclub and saw her there. "Moving to New York" was classified Silver by the BPI in 2015, meaning it has sold over 200,000 copies in the U ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
