Which english localized PC's can't handle easily (although Mac's can).<br /><br />Is this the most boring comment you've ever had? Do I get a prize?emmdeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04537289293835295695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8010923635709588318.post-13797873979634004542010-01-27T15:14:46.249+00:002010-01-27T15:14:46.249+00:00Thanks for the comment Jordan.

The self obsessed point is an interesting one - lots of pop stars could (possibly) be accused of being self obsessed, but if this comes across too much when playing live it can be quite uncharismatic and even annoying.<br /><br />We'll be catching up with Marina live again ourselves soon, so we will be comparing notes !Breaking More Waves Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01678542701655601547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8010923635709588318.post-23444763634184141092010-01-27T14:18:50.758+00:002010-01-27T14:18:50.758+00:00Saw Marina last night at Dingwalls/Camden.

She comes across as a bit self obsessed, her band is full of session musicians, and (overall) I feel that she is only as good as her strongest material. In comparison, Rox, who were on before her, were excellent IMHO.<br /><br />Marina undobutedly already has dedicated followers, I spotted quite a few young women going crazy and miming all the words to her songs. Also present at the right of the stage was a (seemingly) overbearing manager. <br /><br />I enjoyed Hollywood and I am not a Robot as singles, it remains to be seen though if her star will continue to rise; IMHO she'll need a better repertoire of material first.Jordannoreply@blogger.com
