Samsung’s Got A Thing Called Love

The Samsung Galaxy Note is an Android smartphone and tablet computer that was introduced in October 2011. It has attracted attention because of its 5.3-inch screen size – between that of conventional smartphones and tablets – and because of its included stylus.

“I Believe in a Thing Called Love” is a 2003 single by the English rock band The Darkness. The song went #1 on the iTunes Rock charts in February 2012 after Justin Hawkins appeared in a commercial during Super Bowl XLVI.

The Darkness are a British glam rock band from Lowestoft, Suffolk, formed in 2000. The band consists of Justin Hawkins (lead vocals, guitar), his brother Dan Hawkins (guitar, backing vocals), Frankie Poullain (bass, backing vocals) and Ed Graham (drums) and are characterised by their classic rock influences and elaborate stage performances.

Justin David Hawkins (born 17 March 1975) is an English musician and singer-songwriter, best known for being the lead singer and lead guitarist of The Darkness, alongside his brother, guitarist Dan Hawkins.

[Super Bowl XLVI] was the most-watched program in the history of United States television, with 111.3 million US viewers, according to Nielsen, meaning that over 33% of the American population watched the initial broadcast.

Samsung produces around a fifth of South Korea’s total exports and its revenues are larger than many countries’ GDP; in 2006, it would have been the world’s 35th-largest economy.
