When good intentions backfire
B Magazine, Chanun Poomsawai, Published on 06/01/2019
» "Sometimes/ It falls upon a generation/ To be great/ I ask all humanity now/ To rise up/ Then we can all stand/ With our heads/ Held high," begins the Chris Martin-curated Global Citizen EP 1 with opener Rise Up featuring an excerpt from Nelson Mandela's now-iconic "Make Poverty History" speech. It's an apt start given the wholesome intentions of this EP, although it feels slightly jarring to hear one of the world's greatest speeches getting paired with the euphoric synths supplied here by the Norwegian production behemoth Stargate. The song is clearly engineered for a stadium/festival setting, so casual listening might not be the best way to approach what would otherwise be a stirring anthem.

Lions, Kiwis have a 'date with destiny'
Sports, Nobby Piles, Published on 08/07/2017
» The British and Irish Lions got the result they so desperately needed in Wellington last week in a nerve-jangling but thrilling game. They just about deserved it and preventing the All Blacks from scoring a try was a feat in itself. But they will be under no illusions about the task they face today... beware the wounded All Blacks.
