The Shape Of Water (2018)

So, yes… i kinda vanished…. again. Though this time i did it to everyone, not just you, if that helps…. I had some alone time, me time and i discovered that i hadn’t been happy. So i have this year immediately set about changing that, and just with a smile, a can do attitude and a social outlook, it’s been incredible just how full my life has become already! I have done more this last week than i did in an entire set of months last year and i feel so, so much better. So, once again, boomerang boy is back!

Happy Birthday, That Other Guy

What a lucky fella, eh? Christmas, New Years and then his birthday all in the space of about 10 days. Though I’m sure that probably means people cheap out on the presents. Bastards!

And despite the fact that we here at TGTRS are skint misers, we would like to wish That Other Guy a very happy birthday today. I believe it was Elton John that sang “my gift is my song, aaaaaand this one’s to you”. Well, we don’t do singing, it’s not our strength at all, but we do do writing, and on this – the most special of days for you – we commit these words.

Have a great day, buddy.

From the whole TGTRS team.

Merry Christmas 2018

On behalf of the entire TGTRS team, we wish you a very Merry Christmas!

Kingsman: The Golden Circle

I have dug out my old favorite James Pringle cardigan and i love that the very first leaves are falling. Children are stomping concurs on the way home from school and soon the British canopy will come alive with Autumn varied color pallet and a crisp and crunchy carpet will cover the streets and country side. The glorious celebration of this years Spring and Summer efforts will soon start in earnest as now Autumn has begun. 

Eminem – Fall

Eminem – Not Alike ft. Royce da 5’9

Well, this song was interesting!

Eminem – Kamikaze

I sometimes watch bad audition tapes to remind myself that telling yourself you can do something, and actually being able to do it are two very different things. It’s good to have dream, but delusions…

Eminem – Stepping Stones

I’m just gonna get right to this…

Eminem – Em Calls Paul (Skit)

So this is where we take a bit of a dark turn and things get quite real as in a reply to Paul’s (from Paul (Skit) – Kamikaze by Eminem) call, he phones back and leave a message that in essence says two key things.

1 = He is not out to answer every rappers challenge or face down every critic of his work.

2 = He’s on his way to a nothing reviewers house that he reckons he’s tracked down to have it out with him over the guys review of Revival in person. Now as a knows little knows nothing reviewer myself i am very unnerved by the notion of Eminem showing up at my flat and facing me down over something I’ve typed. I’m sure that is the point of this bit!

Hearing a SatNav in the background and the clear sound of driving adds to the fear that this may be something he’s actually done or does, and that is making me think twice before i type my next sentence. He quotes the reason he’s found this guy is because he wrongly stated a miss rhyme as part of a song… so i think he’s trying to send a message to us critics, do your homework and know what you’re talking about before you say something.

That Other Guy

Eminem – Normal

Sorry I’ve been inconsistent everyone; I’ve been ill. Of course it would happen just as i decide to take reviewing seriously again! It seems the universe is trying to tell me something – but i will insist to not listen and keep buggering on.
