Exploring the Different Styles of Magic Cross Piercing Tiktik

By admin

A magic cross piercing is a form of body modification in which a small cross-shaped piece of jewelry is placed through a perforation made in the skin. This type of piercing can be done on various parts of the body, including the earlobes, eyebrows, nose, and nipples. The term "magic cross piercing" may refer to a specific style of piercing that involves the use of a cross-shaped piece of jewelry, or it may simply be a term used to describe any type of piercing that forms a cross shape on the body. The tiktok piercing is a variation of the magic cross piercing that is placed on the tongue. This type of piercing involves the insertion of a small straight barbell through the center of the tongue, with one ball on top and one ball underneath. Like any other type of piercing, a magic cross piercing and tiktok piercing should be done by a professional piercer using sterile equipment and proper techniques to minimize the risk of infections and complications.

I well remember the sensation that Stanley Jordan caused when he burst on the scene in the 1980s. He had invented a method of playing the guitar which enabled him to play notes with both hands at the same time. It was called a hammer-on effect because it involved hammering or tapping a string against the fretboard. This allowed him to play chords and bass lines at the same time as the melody. He was signed by Blue Note Records and Magic Touch (1985) was his first album with that company. It was followed in close succession by Standards Volume 1 (1986) and Flying Home (1988).

From the very first track, one can understand the excitement that Jordan aroused. His version of Eleanor Rigby keeps several strands of melody and accompaniment moving at the same time. Freddie Freeloader is a calmer piece of swing, illustrating his allegiance to jazz. Stanley's high notes remind me of Les Paul's similar style, although much of Les's work was created by double-tracking, whereas Jordan is playing every line simultaneously.

Stanley's versatilty is shown by the wide range of material he plays on Magic Touch, including the jazz-rock of Rod Temperton's The Lady In My Life; Jimmy Hendrix's Angel (a tribute to one of Jordan's influences); and three tunes (tracks 4, 7 and 8) that Stanley composed.

In several tracks on Magic Touch, Stanley is assisted by other musicians, but Standards Volume 1 consists entirely of Jordan playing solo. This is virtuosity of the highest standard. Take, for example, Stevie Wonder's Send One Your Love, where Stanley creates his own counterpoint, weaving together different lines which he decorates with dextrous runs and chords.

Flying Home, the last of these three albums, holds a clue as to why Jordan's profile dropped from public awareness almost as quickly as it had burst into life. He quite quickly became disenchanted with the demands of the studio bosses, who seemed determined to turn him from a jazz virtuoso into a mass-market guitarist (although the sleeve-notes suggest that Stanley agreed with this change of emphasis). The guitarist was surrounded with heavy jazz-funk beats, leaving him little room to display his originality. Instead he sounds like just another guitarist, playing single lines above unsubtle accompaniments. Stanley's unique qualities were submerged by the desire to transfer him to the musical mainstream. He is only allowed to display his unique sound on two tracks (Stairway to Heaven and Flying Home). Small wonder that he soon relinquished recordings, preferring to train in music therapy and then teaching as a music therapist.

It is good to have these three albums (especially the first two) collected together on this double CD. The originals have been skilfully remastered to obtain a bright, clear sound. Although in later years Stanley seemed to have vanished from making recordings, he reappeared with a new album which I reviewed here in 2008. But Stanley Jordan's career is an object-lesson in the dangers posed by trying to go "commercial".

Magic cross piercing tiktik

Some may see it as a form of self-expression, while others may do it for religious or cultural reasons.

The piercing itself looked decent, but after wearing it for just a few hours, it started causing irritation and itching on my skin. Additionally, the clasp used to secure the piercing was quite flimsy and weak, making me constantly worry about it falling off and getting lost. I was highly disappointed with the overall quality and performance of this product.
