Jonas Brothers

Sorry girls, but we have to move on!!! I know that there’s nothing better than opening the blog and watching El Duque, but we have to post more interesting entries…
I didn’t know exactly what yo write about (because your comments have not been very explicit) until Elena suggested me writing about Jonas Brothers… and the question is… Who are they?
Though not very well-known in Spain yet, they are a VMA-nominated American boy band in the USA, becoming one of the most popular bands at the moment. As many American children, they gained popularity thanks to Disney Channel. Born in New Jersey, the band consists of three brothers: Kevin, Joe and Nick. But do you know that the original name of the band was “Sons of Jonas”? Fortunately, they decided to change it. They have published several albums before and they have also participated in famous soundtracks, adverts and even TV. But on August 12, 2008 they released their third studio album –A little bit longer –a tremendous success, as all their singles have occupied the number 1 spot on iTunes for at least three days. Incredible! But there is more coming: Disney has signed the brothers to two Disney Channel Original Series, a 3D concert film, a behind-the-scenes book and a sequel to their hit Disney Channel Original Movie.
And now is your turn… what do you think of the group??? And about their singles??? Here I include one, but is this the best one??? I’m looking forward to hearing your opinions….

Specially for girls

"Oh, my God!" that's what we said when we first saw "Sin Tetas no hay Paraíso", but this exclamation was not for the TV series, no no no... the reason was the appearance of one of the most attractive actors at the moment. Guess who I am talking about? Yes, of course. The mysterious Miguel Ángel Silvestre, known as "el Duque" in this successful series. Born in Castellón, this 26-year-old boy, has appeared on the cover of many magazines and many pictures of him are distributed through the Internet. Obviously, his well-built body has contributed to this, but also his talent has helped him to find a place in the world of TV and the cinema.
And my question is: why do we -girls -go mad when we see him? Why are we waiting for Thursday night impatiently just to see him? Why do we look for his pictures on the web? Certainly, his character is not a good one: a drug-dealer whose main importance is to make money no matter the price, a person with no feelings if you are his enemy, a person ready to kill if necessary. But we melt when we listen to his hoarse voice whispering "I love you" in Cata's ear or when he tenderly holds Cata's face in his hands.
And now, boys and girls, tell me: why do we like bad boys? Do you like "El Duque"? Why? Why not? Can you guess the end of STNHP? I'm looking forward to hearing your comments.

If you missed the 1st chapter of the 2nd season, this is a good summary. Music by Leona Lewis

Viva la Vida

Coldplay is one of the most popular British groups at the moment. This alternative rock band formed in London in 1998 and the group comprises Chris Martin -vocalist, pianist, guitarist, Jonny Buckland -lead guitarist -Guy Berryman -bassist -and Will Champion -drummer/ multi-instrumentalist. Coldplay have sold nearly 40 million albums, among them, we can highlight their hit singles "Yellow", "Speed of Sound", "Fix you" and "Viva la Vida".
The band's fourth studio album, Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends (2008), is somehow different from their other albums, as Hispanic influences are present in many of their songs. In fact, they have been recorded in churches and other areas of Latin America and Spain.
If you like their music, you can attend some of the concerts of the Viva La Vida tour. If not, click on the video below to enjoy one of their best singles so far.
