Didn’t You Used To Be Toni Braxton?

Once upon a time she was asking us to unbreak her heart, now she actually wants us to make it for her. She’s asking a bit much, methinks. Make My Heart is Toni Braxton’s new single and while I don’t think much of the song, doesn’t she look amazing at 42? Her new album, Pulse, is released in May and go to ToniBraxton.com for more details.

Orpheus in St Finnbarre’s Cathedral

Its not just YouTube that is turning 5. Just before the Cork Choral Festival hits the town, the Orpheus Choir is celebrating its fifth anniversary with a Gala Charity Concert in St. Finnbarre’s Cathedral, Cork City on Saturday, 24th. April, 2010 at 8.15pm. Despite the concert being in a Catherdal the group is noted for only performing secular pieces. From those humble origins, the group is often asked to perform at festivals. Another important landmark earlier this year was when Orpheus entered its very first choral competition, the Feis Maitiu in Cork and, came away with a third prize and a score of 85 marks. The concert in Cork City will feature international soloists from The Netherlands and Bell-ringers from Cardiff and Cork starting the evening’s entertainment on a festive note with a peal of the bells of St. Finnbarre’s at 7.30pm.

The Movie Meme – Ten Movie Facts About Me…

I can’t remember the last time I did one of these. Young Niall over on the excellent Scannain.com tagged me in a meme. I have to provide ten movie based pieces of trivia about me. Easy enough, methinks. 1. I’ll start off with a simple one. It’s no secret that my favourite movie of all time is Grosse Pointe Blank. I watch it time and time again and never get tired of it. The one liners, the incredible soundtrack and John Cusack at his best. In fact, I want to be Martin Blank. 2. I remember the day we first got a VCR player and we opened up our first account in the video shop. Our membership number was 161 and the first two movies I rented were Gremlins and The Neverending Story.
