Sentimental Saturdays (WOW Hits 2015 Vs WOW Hits 2005)

wow hits 2015  wow hits 2005

In honour of the new WOW Hits compilation releasing in September, I have decided to make this sentimental Saturdays post about a comparison of WOW Hits, namely, the upcoming WOW Hits 2015, and its counterpart 10 years ago, WOW Hits 2005. While I have discussed the logistics of a WOW Hits list a few Sentimental Saturdays posts back, here I discuss about the slow phasing out of certain artists and the inclusion of a few more when comparing both lists, and the fact that some of these artists that were on previous WOW compilations are just as prominent, relevant, encouraging and motivating now as they were back when they were ‘popular’.

Futuristic Fridays (Who are You if You are Not the Only You there is in the World You Live In?)

So many times in this Futuristic Fridays series I discussed about the future in relation to how it could be if something in this time that we take for granted was taken away from us. From a future without Spotify, Netflix, or even a future without the social relationships needed to function because of increased gaming, or the future of worship and albums with the rise in digital songs, consumerism, the dying out of CD’s and the ease of the consumer to have whatever they want with easy access; this week we tackle something different- how would our futures be if nothing was taken away, but if something was added.

Finding Carter (Drive, Now You See Me, The Heat, The Fugitive)

Starring: Kathryn Prescott, Cynthia Watros, Anna Jacoby-Heron, Alexis Denisof, Zac Pullam, Milena Govich

It’s been 3 weeks since I last wrote a review on Finding Carter, and in that time, a lot has happened. Since watching the pilot of what I reckon is one of the most enjoyable series I’ve watched since shows like The Fosters, Orphan Black and The Blacklist in 2013; Finding Carter has delved into the issues head-on, as what I reckon any show should do if they have a premise like this MTV drama. Presenting a show where the main plotline comes from the revelation that the main titular character’s ‘mother’ that she has known her whole life is in fact her kidnapper can in fact seem hard to pull off, yet Finding Carter manages to balance the comedy and drama in the show pretty well.
