Music of 2012
Clearly, I haven't paid enough attention to these guys over the last few months. This one is a bit like The Strokes if they replaced Julian with Napoleon Dynamite, which needless to say, I use as a compliment.

Music of 2012
^Tricky to pinpoint anyone specific - I can detect a little of Lykke Li in her voice, but the general approach (resolutely pop but drawing on folk and electro themes) reminds me more of Ellie Goulding. Also thought this song was pretty intriguing (forgive me Don, as it's not from 2012 ). Squint your ears a bit and it could be Kate Bush doing 'It's Blitz'-era Yeah Yeah Yeahs.

The Dark Knight Rises (2012)
I guess it goes without saying that they'll have to go some to equal the second movie, but for what it's worth I believe they've really nailed Bane as a character. Menacing, imposing, calculating and just generally spot on. The showdown between he and the returning Batman is going to be absolutely chilling. Additional: one of the best things my eyes have seen in a while - the movie trailer recreated using old clips from the Batman animated series.

The Dark Knight Rises (2012)
Without wishing to engage too much in idle speculation, I wouldn't be surprised if we see Joseph Gordon-Levitt's character as a stand-in Batman for at least part of the movie. The trailers hint at some kind of incapacitation for Bruce Wayne and I see a little of Christian Bale's facial structure in Joseph.

UEFA Euro 2012
i actually would say it's more famous in the way of being a celebrity, not just being known a lot. Ronaldo and Beckham both do charity work, etc in their personal life but it's their celebrity status that has rubbed some fans the wrong way. they want their players to be players, not in the celebrity spotlight and the red carpet (this is even more so when the player isn't preforming). There's no question that Messi is the defining player of this generation (don't tell Cristiano ). Apparently, he even makes more money than David Beckham these days through commercial sponsorship and bonuses. But he's not one of those inescapable celebrity figures like Beckham, Ronaldo and Sean St. Ledger (okay, maybe not that last one) have become. I'm not sure you'd necessarily recognise him or know his name if you weren't already a football fan.

UEFA Euro 2012
Only in the sense that he was never blessed with the natural technique of a Messi or the pace and raw athleticism of a Ronaldo. His success on the pitch was always more of an advert for spirit, dedication and hard work than extravagant gifts. Will I remember Beckham as one of the true all-time greats? Probably not. As one of the best of his generation? Without a doubt. You certainly wouldn't play for United, Madrid and Milan if you were average, and the sheer volume of goals and general chaos his crossing provided from that right wing was just incredible.
