so let your hips do the talking..

I was first introduced to Kings of Convenience by my then boyfriend back when we were in uni. Their ‘I’d Rather Dance With You’ song has been in my playlist ever since. Little that I know they’ve come to play in KL in 2010…plus together with my fav local indie band, Tenderfist.

The music’s too loud and the noise from the crowd 
Increases the chance of misinterpretation 
So let your hips do the talking 
I’ll make you laugh by acting like the guy who sings 
And you’ll make me smile by really getting into the swing 
Getting into the swing, getting into the swing 
Getting into the swing, getting into the swing

Pretty cute, right?

Now on Tenderfist, they’re different than other indie bands in Malaysia. Of course we can see bits of influence and resemblance of the western bands like MGMT, but still they’ve incorporated their own style of beat music which fits for local indie fans.

I like this particular song.

Don’t think guilty if you know
What you wanna do is lie
Messing people when you’re gone
Leave behind a broken heart

My heart…

Hanging up the telephone
Conversation put on hold
Steppin’ on my broken heart
It’s like stepping on a broken glass

This heart is wasted on you
This heart is wasted on you dear
This heart is wasted on you
This heart is wasted on you dear

My heart…

It is actually Urbanscapes, held in KL every year. An avenue to assemble music, fashion and art enthusiasts in one place. Weekend tickets priced at close to 200 bucks. Why so hefty this year?

 

Fuckin Sigur Ros, y’all!

 

I was blessed to be able to see them performed live. And they didn’t disappoint..gosh I love their performance.

The sound system was perfect. The band was so so good,  Jónsi with his amaaazing voice and Orri Páll with his perfect drumming. Oh for the lack of better words, the show was simply mind blowing.

Simply put, Takk Sigur Ros for performing live here in Malaysia.
