Take That - Hey Boy

As a kid, I was more into girl groups than boy bands, so with the exception of the 1995 hit single "Back For Good", I hadn't listened to Take That a lot. But recently, I started rediscovering the band, especially their early dance-pop tracks, so a good friend recommended their 2015 single "Hey Boy". I instantly fell in love with the catchy tune. I also enjoy the video, which you can see down below, and the guys are still smoking hot.

The track is taken from the Take That album "III (2015 Edition)", available on iTunes, Spotify, Amazon UK and Amazon US.

10 Cloverfield Lane (Cloverfield 2) (Trailer)

Do you remember the 2008 horror-disaster movie "Cloverfield"? It's one of my personal favourites and I often rewatch it on Blu-ray. Check out the brand new trailer for the sequel – or rather the spinoff – "10 Cloverfield Lane" down below. It looks very promising.

The film is set to premiere in March and it stars John Goodman, Mary Elizabeth Winstead and John Gallagher Jr. It would been nice to see some of the characters from the first movie return, but that might be hard to explain considering their fates. J.J. Abrams is back as producer though, so I have high expectations.

Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection

I recently bought myself a belated Christmas gift: "Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection" for the Playstation 4. I love the original games so it was great to revisit them all in full HD quality.

The collection includes newly remastered versions of "Uncharted: Drake's Fortune" (2007), "Uncharted 2: Among Thieves" (2009) and "Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception" (2011). They are a must for any fan of action-adventures in the style of "Indiana Jones" and "Tomb Raider".

The fourth and final instalment of the series, "Uncharted 4: A Thief's End", is released later this year. While waiting for it, check out "Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection", available on Amazon UK and Amazon US.

David Bowie, rest in peace

The whole world is mourning the loss of music icon David Bowie, who sadly passed away yesterday, after a long battle with cancer. Last Friday, the star had turned sixty-nine years old and released his final studio album "Blackstar", which included the single "Lazarus".

For me personally, Bowie will always be Jareth, the character he played in the 1986 Jim Henson movie "Labyrinth". Me and my sister grew up watching it, and I still listen to the synthpop soundtrack a lot. Check out the video for "Underground", one of my favourite tracks from the movie, down below.

Rest in peace, David. "It's only forever, not long at all."
