Adele: Someone Like You – What’s all the fuss about?

Adele – Someone Like You – What’s all the fuss about?

I’m not the type who can find his feelings inside a song sang by someone else – so I’d like to take up this opportunity to personally thank Adele for her work.  Not because I have changed and could relate to her song – sorry to disappoint but it’s going to take much more than Adele’s Someone Like You song to even arose my attention.

So why am I writing a (mini) post thanking Adele?  Well because of her (and song(s) sang by her) I am on the receiving end of wrath and fury.  For the first time in a long while I have had to do what I’ve been told to do:  In the last couple of weeks I have had so many female associates (if that’s the right word to describe them) ‘highly recommending’ me to listen to Adele’s Someone Like You for somewhat needed hard look at myself, that I have lost count.

So, after listening to her complete list of songs:  Someone Like You, Make You Feel My Love and Rolling In The Deep and I Can’t Make You Love Me but to name a few – I can honestly say “I still don’t know what the fuss is all about?” and “what exactly am I supposed to learn from her songs?”

In the interest of ‘do what I have been told to do’ I have spent yesterday evening and this morning practically listening to her songs (and some more than a few times) in the hope that I may get the hint, and miraculously learn my lesson, but I now feel I have wasted my time.  So for the record I have listened to the following songs by Adele (other than the ones mentioned above: Set Fire to the Rain, Turning Tables, One and Only, Hiding My Heart, I’ll Be Waiting, Don’t You Remember and the rest you can find here.

I have honestly tried but still I don’t know what the fuss is all about?

British Asian Bloggers List Form now available

Help me spread the word

British Asian Bloggers List Form now available – By The British Asian Blog

Few days ago, I created a new section on my blog – to basically list as many British Asian Bloggers or Asian Bloggers around the world.  This is proving to be quite a popular and have received many compliments around this.

To make life easier for YOU and ME – I have set up a form to submit you details to me – which you can find this form either by clicking here or simply selecting “British Asian Bloggers List” above.

Once you submit you details I will review and put on my directory as soon as possible.  I would also much appreciate if you could pass on the word to your loyal readers who meet the criteria to be on this list – or simply direct them to my blog.

I look forward in hearing from you.

I have a new section: British Asian Bloggers List

Right people, I want you to be part of this.

I’ve been so frustrated in not being able to easily find other British Asian bloggers without pulling my hair out, or taking my frustration out on my laptop.  So I have come up with an idea and have created a directory providing links to other British Asian bloggers which I hope will eventually grow to a reasonable size.

At the moment it’s practically empty and hence why I need you to join and it’s FREE.  It does have its advantage as people will more than often click through the list and if they like what they read might become loyal readers.  Plus if any other Asians want to read about other Asians then they know where to find you.

I’m hoping to grow this over time so please help me out here.

Check it out here or simply just click on the ‘British Asian Bloggers List’ tab on top.

Share your views with me.

Sorry guys..I have been away..

OK guys, I know its been a while since I last posted something here.  I’d like to apologise for my absence and I haven’t been assassinated by The Ghobi, The Aloo and the Masala.  For those who don’t know what this is then just click the link and get informed.

We often make plans in our lives.  Plans that help us achieve our desired destination both short term and long term.  But when a unpredictable change occurs in life, then those plans go right out the window into the rubbish heap.  This happened to me and I found myself making adjustments which I hadn’t planned for before.  I shall write another post about this in the coming days.

I’ll be back shortly and I just wanted to let the readers know ‘where I am’ and that I’ll be back soon (a week or two).

I somehow have managed to hit the right cord with people on this blog, and thank you for your comments and emails.  I have managed to respond to a few and will get around to responding to the remaining ones shortly.

I’ll be back

Thanks for dropping in..

For some strange reason, I decided to finally own a blog of my own (the strange reason I will write about later, when I have understood it properly).  An achievement by my standards.  Thank you for dropping by – I’m glad somehow you managed to click your way here.

There is a reason why I decided to own my own blog, and why I chose the deliberate blog name (or url) as ‘The British Asian Blog’ which I hope to write in another blog post either tomorrow or the day after.  That said – I have struggled to search for other British Asian blog(s) that exist and that are live today (as some do exist but the owner appear(s) to have gone a long vacation since the last post(s) are in 2006 or earlier).  Do British Asian blogs exist?

Anyway – I wanted to start this blog with a little welcoming note.  As I said before, I hope to start writing in the coming days, once I’ve played around with wordpress and its features.

Once again, Thank You for visiting, and I hope you do return and on a regular basis.
