"This album was massive for me. Still is. I first heard this on a cassette in the post from my brother with a note saying, "Demis Roussos on bass!" He put two tracks on there and they both blew my mind. I knew immediately I needed to find this record but was convinced it was incredibly obscure. A few weeks later, I was in this old drill hall in Falmouth that doubled up as a house-clearance furniture shop. Flicking through the records in there, between multiple copies of No Jacket Required and some Cornish male-voice choir stuff, there was 666. I bought it and raced home and was pretty pleased to hear it was a lot more bonkers than I could ever have imagined. This album is properly bonkers. The gatefold sleeve has a 2CV crashed into a wall; the music is so incredibly inspirational. As a piece of work it's outside of any frame of reference – it's like discovering a new colour or a new flavour. Every time I see a copy I have to buy it – I give it to anyone I know who doesn't have it yet."

Bong Mines Entertainment (15 KP) rated On My Way - Single by Bori in Music

Jun 25, 2019

Bori is a 19-year old rising singer-songwriter based in Gothenburg, Sweden. Not too long ago, he released a wonderful Afro-pop tune, entitled, “On My Way”.

‘On My Way’ is Bori’s second single, which he co-wrote with Mack, Sebastian Atas, Victor Sjöström, and Viktor Broberg.

The likable tune tells an inspirational tale of a young guy who chooses to follow his heart. Therefore, he does what he believes he has to do in order to fulfill his goals and find happiness.

‘On My Way’ contains a relatable storyline, ear-welcoming vocals, and dance-friendly instrumentation flavored with a tropical Afro-pop aroma.

“‘On My Way’ represents my way to success and the way that I will take to reach my goals.” – Bori

Bori gained international attention after featuring on German DJ Felix Jaehn’s multi-million streaming single, “Jennie”. Since then, the likable tune has amassed over 50M streams online.

Not too ago, Bori released a music video for his debut single, entitled, “Players Ballad”.

‘Players Ballad’ tells an interesting tale about a guy who gets in lots of trouble because of his bad decisions. In the end, he has to pay for it.

I've never really been a fan of Winnie the Pooh as a franchise. I'm not a monster, I do like the characters! It feels like it's been over done recently even though this is only actually one of two films around the subject in the last few years.

All in all it's a perfectly pleasant film with some very touching moments. But the ending just kind of happens... all of a sudden.

I was also bugged a little by the fact that Pooh and friends didn't all have the same style. While they weren't in it as much as the others, Owl, and rabbit to some extent, looked a lot more real than everything else. Likewise, Kanga and Roo have a different style again. In the illustrations and animations the differences between the characters is a lot less obvious.

It makes you wish that life really was as simple and carefree as it is for Pooh. A game of Say What You see followed by tea. He also has what is possibly the most inspirational line in the whole film:

"People say nothing is impossible. But I do nothing everyday."
