lol, english fail. I assume it was supposed to be a mix of 'armor' and 'amour', of course some stupid american not realising that that just makes....armour, which is how the rest of the world spells it.

also, that MC was terrible. "here's a performer, she's got more talent than I have in my little toe!" - umm, awesome intro dude

So she has all the talent of his big toe! Awful

This thing is so wholesome that I have to wonder if it's some kind of religious outfit. I mean, Ark?

The California based music production outfit has struck upon what appears to be a profitable business model: Taking absurd amounts of money from parents who can't say no to their precocious teenage daughters who reeeeeally want to be rock stars.

...


Ark's business reportedly involves flying privileged young girls out to their recording studio, recruiting professional musicians to write a song and then record it, auto-tuning the kid's voice so it isn't overwhelmingly embarrassing, then putting together a professional grade music video for them.
that's actually pretty clever!

You know, it could actually be an extension of their business model.

Release laughably mediocre pop then give artists licence to make cool remixes and sell.

Yeah, me too.

What was really disconcerting is he threw his voice. It didn't sound like it was coming from his body at all, but somewhere a couple of metres away.

When he first joined me my phone was in my pocket and I had my earphones in, listening to music. I heard him singing as he hurtled towards me, and ducked, as I thought he was going to hit my head, but he landed on the bench beside me, singing the whole time, and got right up beside me. He was awesome. I scared him off the bench getting my phone out, but he stayed really close to my feet despite that. I didn't take my headset off until right into the first video, when I remembered I had it on, and I could then hear him properly. Very cool but definitely something weird going on with that voice. I couldn't have located him by ear, if I was blind.

What the hell? Magpies aren't supposed to do that! They're supposed to swoop down and terrorise people and make them wee their pants and peck at their head until they draw blood! Surprisingly tuneful bird, though... for such an evil creation.
You're hoarse, you unwell or do you always sound like that?

Ha! Actually, that is genius. It more than explains the lack of talent of everyone involved and realises a brilliant industry: exploiting rich cunts! I mean, exploiting rich cunts is not new in itself, but gearing the business model in just this way is brilliant. Y'know, as long as you make enough money out of it to be able to live with the lameness of your product.

If I were Rebecca Black's father though, I'd be pretty pissed off that they wrote such a shitty song. Maybe he only forked out for the Budget Plan and figures as long as his little girl is happy...

Yep, very unusual. As I said to the magpie, definitely tamed. He was ringed. He also had a totally healed but mutilated foot, so perhaps he was in a bird refuge for a while recovering from that injury.

I'm sick. I was on my way to the doctor when I met the bird.

Ah right, so it's not years of smoking that's left its toll on your voice.

Actually, I think it's of the subspecies tyrannica, and the description I have found indicates that the females have a creamy back, and the males' are white. I think the bird was very young, so wondered if the grey might be a sign of immaturity.

Yeah! Callen's amazing. Far better than that weiner Andy Dick they had last week, god he was a terrible guest, I can't imagine Joe will be having him back anytime soon.

Will check that out, ta!
