Breezy summer tune: The Rain

Wednesday, April 29th, 2009


You know, I’m into the Canadian talent Anjulie right now. Her little “Boom” EP is delightful, but the best track she has done is “The Rain”. You can hear it on her Myspace or below. Perfection!

Also check out her interesting video for “Boom”. You can thank me later…

Oh joy… The new Katy Perry vid is here!

Fasten your seat belt – the fresh Katy Perry video for “Waking Up In Vegas” is finally out. The colorful and fun video was directed by Joseph Kahn and of course it was shot in Las Vegas!



Evolution of Mandy Moore

Monday, April 27th, 2009


I’m fascinated by the evolution that Mandy Moore has gone through since her debut back ind 1999 with the single “Candy”. The sugary song about teenage love instantly put Mandy on the popstar map.



But 10 years later Mandy Moore is a totally different artist. She is married to singer-songwriter Ryan Adams and will release her album “Amanda Leigh” in the end of May. Her latest single is nice, but nothing revolutionary.


New single from Basement Jaxx

Saturday, April 25th, 2009

You gotta listen to this! “Raindrops” is the brand new single from my favefavefave house duo Basement Jaxx. The guys have mixed ruff vocals with layers and layers of beats, synth and their signature eclectic samples. And don’t you just love the artwork shown here?

This is the soundtrack to my summer!

All I can say is WOW

Saturday, April 25th, 2009

Lady Gaga is known for her fabulous stripped down piano version of “Poker Face”. But now she has outdone herself with a magical version of her new single “Paparazzi”. The intro, the way she is in control, the voice, the composition – WOW.

I’m so glad that she is showing her skills, after all Lady Gaga is a classically trained pianist.

Booooring: Kanyes new vid

Friday, April 24th, 2009

I was quite the excited fan after seeing stills from Kanyes new video “Amazing”. But now that the video has been released I’m kinda disappointed. The whole thing is just boring. Yeah, Hawaii sure looks awesome, and yes Young Jeezy is a charmer. But I’m half asleep here…The good thing is that the song is plain wonderful.

Think I’m gonna take a nap..

WOW: My new favourite song

Friday, April 24th, 2009


After listening to “Boom” just a couple of times, I was hooked. Meet Anjulie, a Canadian singer who is about to release her debut album later this year. One of my fave bloggers Arjanwrites.com describes her as a mix between Nelly Furtado and Corinne Bailey Rae, and he is spot on. Did I mention the video is uh-mah-zing?

Beyoncé shows off her halo

Thursday, April 23rd, 2009

Finally Beyoncés latest single “Halo” is taking flight. Right now it’s on Billboard Hot 100 number 12 – and number 4 in the UK. Here’s a performance of the song that is co-written by Ryan Tedder.

Bonding in Barbados: Riri and Katy

Thursday, April 23rd, 2009

Look at that! Rihanna and Katy Perry are totally bonding during a vacation in Barbados. Katy recently confirmed that she and Rih hang out together – but who cares about your friendship – WE WANT YOU TO MAKE MUSIC TOGETHER, NOW!

Poppin’ pills: Eminem Album Cover

Tuesday, April 21st, 2009


It’s quite pretty in a disturbing way. Eminem will release his album “Relapse” in the middle of May.

Ne-Yo: Part Of The List

Monday, April 20th, 2009

He is SUCH a bad actor, so beware of the painful intro for this video for “Part Of The List”. Nice song though, I could see this becoming a mainstream hit.

Video Premiere: Boom Boom Pow!

Sunday, April 19th, 2009


Here’s the brand new video from Black Eyed Peas for their single “Boom Boom Pow”. I’m giving this a B+, because the Peas stay interesting and relevant and switch up the game a little bit.
