Ah, the hell with it...
I'm gonna have a party [x2]
I had the blankest year
I saw life turn into a T.V. show
It was totally weird
The person I knew I didn't really know
Time don't remove
We're the only ones who do
Bendin' reason
'Cause its all we hold on to
I had the blankest year
I saw life turn into a T.V. show
It was totally weird
The person I knew I didn't really know
And I was lonely
They got the best and went
But you're only
I'd like to return this spell
'Cause it's not my size
And your lies are so much bigger than my lies
And your ties are made of things that shouldn't be ties
Mr Fogg derives his name from Phileas Fogg, the main fictional character in the 1872 Jules Verne novel Around the World in Eighty Days. In an interview with BBC Radio 1's Annie Nightingale, he was heard to say that the name arose, as 'Phileas sounds somewhat like Phil', his own Christian name.
Mr Fogg is a UK-born alternative pop electronic artist, who made his name touring countries including Iceland - where he recorded his debut album - Lithuania and Latvia. He also played Reading Festival, Iceland Airwaves, Truck Festival, Secret Garden Party in the past and has some exciting UK shows coming up in 2010.
Mr Fogg has experimented with unusual methods of getting his music out.He uses Bandstocks, where members of the public can buy shares in the production of artists albums, and in December 2009 he opened a 4 day only pop-up shop, Fogg Shop, in Central London, to perform live and sell his music.
The Moving Parts single single is out in early April 2010 and the album with the same title is to follow in late April. The album was recorded at Greenhouse Studios in Reykjavik, and co-produced by long-term Bjork-collaborator Valgeir Sigurdsson. Mr Foggs remixers include Rennie Pilgrem, Jakwob, Poirier, lafur Arnalds and Rudi Zylgadlo.
Mr Fogg had just returned from L.A, where, under the creative direction of legendary Tony Kaye (of American History X fame), he filmed a video for Moving Parts single.
Fogg is not just another new artist. He does things his own way and has done so ever since he started playing both the piano and organ aged 7. Hed mastered the guitar and four-track recorder by 12 and by 14 became an expert drummer and bassist. Its his ability to follow his own path that makes him special, and where other young musicians would have opted to move to the big city, Fogg found greater personal affinity with the Nordic countries, where he eventually recorded this new album.
Now reading he above you may think that Mr Foggs music may be too leftfield for most peoples tastes. Well, you would be wrong, with a capital W. Look no further than the startling and very beautiful opener A Second Look with its dark electronic intro, fabulous melody, solid lyrics and youthful, pleading vocal. Its a moving, slam-dunk of a song and likely to be one of my favourite tracks of 2010. Moving Parts adopts a much lighter instrumental backdrop to communicate another emotional and introspective message. Dripping keyboard notes, electronic clicks, subtle drum strokes, powerful melody and another sensitive, expressive vocal combine to deliver another quite stunning song. Bloodrush offers up another sonic but different sonic feast with a relentless, deep Hammond drone below another fragile vocal performance. A sharp clatter of drums concludes another cracking good pop song. Stung offers up yet another sonic treatment, this time a bass strum, swooning harmonies and guitars provide an indie rock ambience. Its another winner.
Now whats interesting here is that when I first listened to the album,I picked three later songs for airplay on our radio show. However, during this review process those three songs has expanded to include just about every track on the record. And I reckon another listen will make it a full-house, thats how good this is. I Will Let You Down is a glacially paced emotional thunderbolt with a formidable backdrop of clattering drums under one of the most expressive vocal on the record.
Glorious! Keep Your Teeth Sharp delivers nightmarish darkness with its ocean deep bass rhythm, and desperation with a vocal as expressive as youll ever hear. Orchestral strings introduce an intensely contemplative sonic dreamscape in My Bones Creak, while final track, Answerphone is a bittersweet love song where a desperate vocal pleads forlornly, Give me a call, you will not get the answerphone.
This is adult pop music drenched in adventure, sonic diversity, beauty and emotion, the like of which I doubt Ill hear again in 2010. Its a gorgeous record; beautifully written, performed and produced; and I just hope that Mr Fogg secures some airplay for it - he deserves to.
2010 is shaping up to be another very strong album release year, and thus far Mr Fogg is up there with the very best of them.
Came into a dream in the night
When all the world was sleeping so tight
A treasure in store, perilous moments
Knowing their love was so true
A help from their friends, brave and so daring
Angel, soldier, in the night
Dreams can be so real and so true
They come alive for me and for you
Daring for love, wrestling the moment
Danger surrounds, so blue
Weather the storm, brighter horizons
Angel, soldier, in the night
Deep as the ocean
As high as the sky above
Clouds passing by
When love will find its way
Into your heart
Come into a dream in the night
When all the world was sleeping so tight
A treasure in store, perilous moments
Knowing their love was so true
A help from their friends, brave and so daring
Angel, soldier, in the night

The Angel and the Soldier Boy is the 13th album by Irish folk group Clannad, released in 1989. It is the soundtrack to the animated movie of the same name and contains both the music to the movie and the narration of the story by Tom Conti. The animation is based on the award-winning children's picture book by Peter Collington.
CLANNAD是凯尔特语的词组“clann as D”的缩写（CLANN + A + D）。
在凯尔特语种，“clann”是“家族”之意，“as”相当于英语中的“from”或“out of”的意思。而许多关于CLANNAD意思的理解在这两处并没有分歧，分歧主要来自于最后一个字母D上。
一般认为有两种见解：
一、D是Dobhar的首字母，Dobhar是凯尔特的一个小镇的名字，在这里作为小镇的象征。
二、D是Dango的首字母，Dango是日语“団子”的罗马音的首字母，在这里作为团子的象征。
这两种见解就能发展出两种相似而又不尽相同的含义，一个是直接表示“小镇家族”，整个小镇就是一个家族，而另一个则表示“团子大家族”，并以团子大家族象征整个小镇中的各个家族，以及小镇本身的这个大家族。
当然，无论哪种解释，都脱离不了“小镇”和“家族”这核心概念。
Clannad: Pat, Maire, Pol, Noel, Ciaran
Clannad最初名叫'an clann as Dobhar'，意为'来自都灵的家族'，后来简化为 'Clannad'
'Clannad'一词读作CLAN-ehd. 有些人, 特别是在美国有人念clan-AHD, 可这是不对的. 这一信息来自录像'PastPresent'和对乐队的采访。
