Newton Faulkner

Holla. I am back with one review. Not the fresh one, but I hope you guys haven't heard about him so I am not really really that out of date. Hihihi.

Newton Faulkner is an English musician. He is well known for his guitar playing style, which involves rhythmically tapping and hitting the guitar's body, also a finger-picking. His very first music career was making a sound for the game TrackMania Sunrise called Take Back. Though he has released few albums since 2007, even the latest album came out on 2009, I just knew him from the movie, Morning Glory, which included one of Faulkner's song called Gone in the Morning. You should listen to the song. See why he is very famous with that guitar's body tapping. Energizing tho'.

So I see, many of great musicians come from England. Wish I could continue my post graduate study there so I might be able to attend their concerts or even the Woodstock! Many concerts that I wish to be able to attend are Mayer Hawthorne's, James Kakande's, and Faulkner's. You see I am an impulsive. Whenever I like something, I will like it a lot and repeating it like everyday. I haven't told you about James Kakande, right? Should spend some time writing of him then.

Wondering how Faulkner looks like? Here is one picture that I grabbed from the net. See, he got that dreadlocks but with the pale skin. Reminds us of Marley huh? The look and the way he plays guitar tho'.

I checked his Myspace and found out that his upcoming events will be held on England (yeah of course. Where else'd you hope it'll be?) Argh. If somebody were generous enough to buy me return tickets to England. Ha ha ha. Who would?

Although there are several singles provided, I like Gone in the Morning better than other songs like Dream Catch Me, I Need Something. Because it sounds more ear-catchy and the guitar's body tapping is very clear. Give it a shot and let me know what do you think of that.

Well then, you should try watching Morning Glory, starred Rachel McAdams, Patrick Wilson, Harrison Ford, and Diane Keaton. I like McAdams a lot. Impart from that, the soundtrack is beautiful, supported by Joss Stone, Natasha Bedingfield, etc (Well Stone and Bedingfield are also my fave! I seemly have a lot of idols huh).

That's all for now. Enjoy the new music and movie I'm bringing to you. Nice days!
