Customer Review: why why why the radiohead comparisons?
Seriously, stop already with the Radiohead comparisons. This sounds nothing like Radiohead, not Pablo Honey, not The Bends, not ANYTHING EVER by Radiohead. Just because Coldplay's singer tries to sing in a high register like Thom Yorke sings, doesn't necessarily mean the two bands sound alike. Coldplay, for instance, sucks big ones. Radiohead is sort of a brilliant band. There's one difference right there, just for starters. But whatever, you're not a loser or anything if you like this garbage. Lots of people like garbage even worse than this! So there, feel good knowing that you're not utterly, totally, hopelessly devoid of taste (maybe).
Customer Review: We Live in a Beautiful World
This is beautiful music. I distinctly recall direct comparisons to Radiohead at the time of this release, and I must say, I can draw virtually no comparisons between the two artists. Radiohead stinks. Radiohead is useless noise. Coldplay really delivers some beautiful, oftentimes powerful melodies throughout this disc. Sentimental moments abound here. Minimalism WORKS when it is executed correctly, and "Parachutes" is a testament to that. This album is extremely relaxing and even gives me the chills at times. Songs like "Don't Panic", "Shiver", "Sparks", and "Trouble" are tremendous achievements. Solid album through and through from a terrific band.

Intellectual giftedness is an intellectual ability significantly higher than average.

A skill is the learned capacity or talent to carry out pre-determined results often with the minimum outlay of time, energy, or both.

A marked ability or skill. The potential or factual ability to perform a skill better than most people.

A Talent is the natural ability to do a thing. Whether it be Write, Sing, Sports or Invent or Create. A Talent can not be taught or learned it is a Natural thing inside of a person. You can add to or build up a Talent to make it better useful and you can also lose a Talent by letting it sit dormant for a period of time. For example, if a singer doesn't sing for awhile, they lose that ability to hit the high or low notes. If a sports player is injured and has to be out for a season or two, they must reestablish him or her self. To gain full potential from a Talent, one must practice it everyday.

Example:

When I was 3 years old, I had a two year old brother and a 4 year old brother. My dad had bought a guitar and began to learn how to play it. Dad began to teach us to sing Gospel Music. But it just came Natural to us. We could hear a song just one time and we could sing it all the way through. Less than a year after we started singing we were getting invited to come visit and sing at other churches. Soon after that we were singing at the radio station. People loved to hear us sing Southern Gospel Music. As time went on, we added more places to go to and sing. More family members, and even sang at 2 different TV Stations a few times. We even sang for the City of Kings Mountain and was picked up to go to the event and brought home in a police car. That was exciting. My family had the Talent to sing and make music. We have sang in almost every church in North and South Carolina.

A Talent is born within a person. Not everyone has a Talent. Can you run faster than anyone in the neighborhood? Can you jump higher than anyone? Can you just pick up any type instrument and fool around with it a few minutes and then play a song? Can you just fix things? Then you have a Talent.

A Talent can save you money. A Talent can make you money. A Talent can be hard work. A talent can be fun. A talent can do amazing things. If and when you find out what type Talent you have and build on it and grow it. It can and most times is a life changing experience.

Michael Wood is the Author of many Southern Gospel Music Songs as well as a few Country Music Songs.
My Family and I have been in and around music for some 51 years. 14 of those years we toured all over North and South Carolina. Singing in countless Churches, Radio Stations, and 2 different TV Stations.
