Re: ello

Anything the word social attached on the cover entails a marketing dream. Nothing more, nothing less. For those who feel a necessity for 'social networking,' really do need to face reality.

I can't believe how much Kiwi had changed her opinions on this thread, probably more likes given for changing opinions than the quick selfie.

That is the most wankerish/pretentious name for an Album I have ever seen. It tries to look D @ M and means fuck all It was the beginning of the end of my love for Henry I used to be a HUGE fan !!

Some fabulous music totally wrecked by awful vocals and electronic effects. Also so badly mastered it causes my amp to soft clip.

^ I bought the vinyl album, most horrible sounding quality I've ever purchased. But I do like most of the tunes in my headphones, skip some automatically, some of the vocals aren't bad imo, and ............

I like the quote....for those who insist someone face reality

Re: ello

^^^But is that what it is saying ??? I am speaking as someone who has made at least one big dream come true. I can do both dreams and reality And without confrontations As most of us can and do , which is why I think that quote means fuck all !! Condescending BS

Re: ello

^^As an album cover though, I interpreted it to mean "F---k reality, let's explore dreams through music!" which I like. As a quote, it's rather off-putting. Confronting one's dreams, hmmmm? worth pondering in a world always cramming reality down our throats, while really, anything is possible! "not strong enough" to me meant "not brave enough to pursue dreams." just my interpretation.

Glad you made a dream of yours come true!

Is it a coyote or a wolf? idk

I kept thinking it was just about a few kids making money on fb?
I'll see if I can still find it. ABC iview is very unreliable... Works when it feels like it...

^^ The link I put up on this thread works for Australia. I thought it was was thought also. On the contrary is about very smart people manipulating "like" hungry teenagers. It is brilliant and totally abhorrent at the same time.

In other words we can pretty well interpret it anyway we like

A wolf , looks a trifle underfed.

Re: ello

Instagram and vine is what the kidlets use these days... or else the label that paid these 5 kids collectively $50,000 for posting videos on their instagram and vine of this music video I worked on recently would have been for nothing. but none of them used fb. Even the music group from the video only had 3,000 followers on FB, but tours the world and has a tone of teenage fans.

Anecdotal

Re: ello

Reality is for those.... Is a great album name btw. It's unique and makes you think. And the tunes are dreamy and many ppl here live his subsequent mixes since this album/tangeant.

I like Didi because she's one of the few ppl I've encountered who like to argue pointless topics more than I do.

Not really, most of the stuff I come across for work indicates teens aren't using facebook either. Like you said facebook was built by college kids and most of them are now older and in the workforce. facebook is no longer 'cool' when their parents are on it too. They're supposedly leaving Twitter too. If what I read are to be believed they're on Snapchat, Vine, Instagram. I see a lot of activity on Tumblr too. Facebook like MS might have a lot of registered users but active users are a small percentage.

I imagine when facebook came out it was new and different like an empty wall that people could tag and graffiti. But while its functionalities are the same its usage has evolved, it now feels more like a school notice board littered with spam, it's more functional than fun or sexy.

It's most likely why facebook bought Instagram for $1b and launched chat apps like Slingshot (Snapchat clone) and Rooms (anonymous chatting)—to capture that younger market share.

This is a problem every mature brand faces, even LEGO: You'd think it's ubiquitous and people would use it but it too faces challenges from newer shinier objects like gaming consoles, TV, mobile gaming and smart toys.
