The Franz Ferdinand Thread
Haha, it's the other way around for me. :D The earlier version seems out of order to me because it starts differently. I love the album/live version. :heart: I have a recording of Lucid Dreams that is over 15 minutes long. :nice:

2010 Albums Worth Listening To
It definitely deserves a second (and third) listen. I didn't like it as much as I thought I would at first (especially the "happy" songs) but it has grown on on me. Especially Tornado is georgeous. Probably not one of my favourite albums so far, but a decent and good album nonetheless. You should give it another try. :nice:

Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin
Yes.

You.. post changer! Now your post is somewhat useful. :shifty: That's great (albeit old) news though.

I was so into DCFC in 2006. :laugh3: Transatlanticism is a great album for cleaning, by the way. :P

Need help form English and German people!
Yeah. I think TOEFL is internationally accepted while ESOL is only accepted in the UK. The tests are probably more or less the same, but to be honest I don't really know. I took CAE (advanced certificate) in 2008 because my school offered it, though in hindsight I should have taken CPE. I scored an A (>80% according to wiki) without preparing anything at all and not paying attention during the audio test (they scheduled it at the end of the day :facepalm:). CAE (certificate in advanced English) is C1 and CPE (certificate of proficiency in English) is C2, the highest level you can test for. I think with your score you're borderline C2 at the moment, so you can definitely reach C2 after you've retaken your test if you put a little effort in it. Writing is probably the easiest to improve in, because you can just rehearse the rules/your vocabulary and practice really easily. :nice: Are you planning to apply for a UK/US university?

Mumford & Sons
I don't need to stand front row because I'm really tall, but I'll definitely try to/want to/will stand in the front part. :nice: I have such high expectations of this gig. :D :dance:

We Are Scientists
You have a crappy computer. xD I love With Love and Squalor (especially the front cover :awesome:), but I haven't heard any of the other albums (pl? :thinking:) yet. Crap Attack is pretty interesting though. Their cover of Hoppípolla is really good, but still hurts my ears. :D

Such a charming photo. :laugh3:

SURFER BLOOD
YES. Astro Coast is really good, probably among my favourites so far this year. :nice: I'm seeing them in a couple of weeks :dance: (Titus Andronicus is supporting :awesome:)

I don't know anything about TOEFL, but for Cambridge certificates UK universities require a good mark on C1 level, but if you take C2 basically anything is good. (that's an average though, prestigious universities like Oxbridge have higher standards than, let's say, Dundee university) I guess 100+ is the score you want to have (can't go wrong with that), so I'd definitely retake the parts if you think you can still improve. :smiley: Judging from forum posts it's hard to say whether your writing is good or bad, but I'd say it's pretty decent. There is a big difference between this and writing a formal letter or essay though (that's what I had to do for my CAE test). And you can get accepted to prestigious universities with a bad score on a test like this. A classmate of mine got into Cambridge with CAE (C1) grade C. She screwed up though. :lol: Writing was my best score as well. :nice:
