Old Habits Die Hard

Should I wear a mask to work? I really don't want to get swine flu right before my exams. I know it ain't fatal, the strain is mild, but it might be fatal to my exam results. Sucks!

Anyway, this is meant to be a music post. If you don't know yet, Eminem is back yo!!!
So is Green Day. Their albums are pretty good, can't say it's their best work to date, but they are good.

Green Day's latest, 21st Century Breakdown, has a sound closer to that of American Idiot than that of their older stuff. If you're a fan of American Idiot, you should check it out, if not, don't bother.
My personal favourites on the album are 21st Century Breakdown, Before The Lobotomy, Viva La Gloria and 21 Guns.
I thought the first single, Know Your Enemy, was a little weak though. Any of those mentioned above would have done a better job. And I was slightly disappointed that there aren't any epic Jesus of Suburbia type songs on it. Jesus of Suburbia was(still is) my favourite on American Idiot.
All in all, I'd still give it a 8/10. Well worth a listen.

Eminem, as you might know, is the only non-rock artist that I listen to regularly. So, his return was more than welcomed by me. Relapsed(title of the album, if you didn't know), was just marvellous. In my opinion, it supersedes that of Encore. Even though we all know he wouldn't retire, I'm glad he's actually back. Personal favourites? We Made You(Just Lose It type song), Beautiful(inspiring), Must Be The Ganja, Stay Wide Awake.
And Medicine Ball follows close behind.
What's more? I think Eminem has more pharmacological knowledge than a surgeon. Plus, he doesn't even use "ass" anymore, he now uses "gluteus maximus".
He is one talented dude. 8.5/10 from me.

Finally, a song by Mick Jagger, or shall I say Sir Mick Jagger. Old Habits Die Hard.
Here's the best I can find on Youtube. It's not the original but obviously still Mick(if you can't tell I should shoot you). Look for the one on Alfie's soundtrack if you're interested.

Bout time for a new Stones album too perhaps? Gotta love 'em.
