Anyway, I thought I would share my favourite acts so far on this years Britain’s Got Talent. Maybe you agree with my choices, but if you don’t please do feel free to tell me yours;

Speaking of Saturday nights, I’m sure I would get plenty of attention if I could dance even half as brilliantly as Michael Moral – who incidentally is one of my favourites of the show so far. See this video, and let me know if you agree or disagree;

WOW…. I’m simply blown away by this. I love watching dancing, and am usually blown away by Body Popping (I think that is what this style of dance is called.. please correct me if I’m wrong!). It almost looks as though Mr Moral is inhuman (not to be mistaken with inhumane).

Just seeing the unbelievable control, and poise of a good ‘body popper’ is enough to make the hair on the back of my neck stand up. Absolutely amazing.

Gillette – The best a Man Can Get.

The company’s slogan has never been more true after the introduction of their latest shaver, the ProGlide. I am not often blown away by a wet shaver, as most are never as good as they claim to be.

I – like so many others – have very sensitive skin, and my face hates having strips of metal (i.e. a shaver!) rubbed across it. I’ve always been a Gillette fan though, as they have always proved to perform better than anything else I have tried – see my review of the KOS Azor Razor for example.

About a month ago I was drawn in by a fancy advert, and my trust in the Gillette brand, and popped out to Boots to buy a brand new ProGlide Razor and couldn’t wait to try it….. I lead a very sheltered life evidently.

WOW….. It was damn impressive to say the least.

Usually I’ve found Gillette updates to their razors to be pretty much the same as before, but a different colour. This time though, I was almost blown away. The new blades provide an incredibly smooth shave. Here is what the company website says about their new product;

The Gillette® Fusion® ProGlide™ Power Razor is Gillette’s most advanced blade ever. Thinner, finer blades* with a low-resistance coating glide effortlessly through hair for less tug and pull, providing incredible comfort, even if you shave every day.

I have to agree – for once – with this. The blades really do effortlessly glide across the face, reaching every contour. Plus, the new precision trimmer (always one of my favourite features of previous models) is improved dramatically.

The redesigned precision trimmer now features an improved blade and anti-clogging rinse slots. Ideal for shaving in tricky places like under the nose.

Overall, very impressed with the Fusion ProGlide Power. It outperforms everything else I’ve ever tried – including previous Gillette razors. It does appear to be more expensive to buy replacement blades, but through personal experience they do appear to be lasting a lot longer than previous blades, so probably justifies the extra cost for that reason.

Let me know your thoughts and experiences with this razor below…..

Before I go much further, I must say that Ellie’s music is NOT the genre I’d normally listen to. R&B, Hip Hop, and Dance is more ‘my thing’ if I’m going to be honest. But the voice was so angelic it forced me to listen again and again, drawing me into a state of relaxation – and admiration.

Of course, I thought it necessary to tell Ellie how pleasing her music was, and we had a conversation where she revealed that she had almost got a deal with a major record label before they pulled out for some inexplicable reason, and was therefore now a member of Sellaband. I for one had never heard of this site, but was informed that it was a social network site for unsigned music artists to gain exposure, and more importantly, raise funds to produce their album. At the time, the funds required was set at $50,000.

The site works by allowing others to buy ‘parts’ or shares in any artist on the site. Each part cost $10 and contributed to the artists funds. So, I bought an undisclosed number of parts in Ellie Williams. She raised the $50,000 in just 50 days, proof of her talent if it was needed.

That was almost 2 years ago. Today, my limited edition CD’s that I am entitled to for being one of the believers dropped onto my doorstep, and I couldn’t wait to hear the final production.

I was – once again – blown away by the talent. As I’ve previously mentioned, it’s not my normal choice of music genre, but the album is beautiful in every way. All 11 tracks are stunningly produced and showcase Ellie’s naturally angelic voice perfectly.

I could go on, but I’m no expert at reviewing music. I’m sure you have noticed already! I can only recommend that you preview the album on iTunes, or visit her website at EllieWilliams.co.uk. Feel free to let me know your thoughts on the album.
