Good evening, my little Muunsters.Hmm…that didn’t work nearly as well as I’d hoped. Ah, well.These bad boys just arrived in my inbox, and I knew there’d be more than a few readers who’d fancy a look. Here you are!
Ladies and gentlemen, the video of the year: Lady Gaga’s “Bad Romance.”God, where to start? Honestly. each summary of the video I’ve attempted to write in the past hour ends up spilling out as a frantic shouting of nouns. (The Alexander McQueen! The big sunglasses! The ugly cat! The sex trafficking! The fire! The hair! [...]

I KNOW.The Sugababes 4.0 have just covered Florence and the Machine’s “Rabbit Heart (Raise It Up)” for Radio 1’s Live Lounge…for the first time live under their new formation, no less!I need to know who made this happen. Was it Jade? EDIT: I got so excited, I forgot to actually REVIEW the damn [...]

Today has just been full of disappointments: The videos for “Bad Romance” and “Video Phone” seem to be delayed indefinitely, the Leona Lewis album is, for the most part, a massive snooze-fest, and worst of all, the strawberries that I worked so hard to plant have withered on FarmVille.But enough mourning for this morning, it’s [...]
The above is Rihanna's interview with Diane Sawyer for 20/20. It's split into five parts, all of which can be clicked through inside the clip. There's nothing much for me to say here; no snippy commentary or sarcastic quips. This is essential viewing, and may very well be responsible for saving more than a few lives [...]

For fans of Sneaky Sound System, The Presets, and all the other electro-pop sensations stemming from down under, rejoice: You’ve got a new name to add to your playlists.The bands first single, “Wish U Were Here,” supplies all the right moves for [...]

Skip ahead to 2:55…that’s all you need to hear. Or for the lazy, allow me to assist. On “Party in the USA”:“I don’t know, I didn’t write the song, so I have no idea. Honestly, I picked that song because I needed something to go with my clothing line. I didn’t write it.I’ve never heard [...]
I had no idea J. Lo was giving us the video treatment for this one!This twenty second preview has already made the sub-par track better by approximately 325.5%, forced me to watch “Get Right,” “Do It Well,” and “Control Myself,” and reaffirmed my faith in mankind.These are facts.
I still don’t quite ‘get’ Mini Viva as an act yet, nor am I entirely sure what market they’re trying to cater to, but I remain intrigued nonetheless. The song seems to be a grower for sure (loving the light waves of modern disco!), but this video looks like one giant ITV commercial interlude to [...]
Here comes “If Only Your Bed Could Cry,” yet another brilliant track off of Swedish delight Titiyo’s album, Hidden, which will be released in Europe later this fall and the US in 2010. Who knew the trials and tribulations of being a bell boy could have such emotionally draining effects? Then again, if everyone was [...]
There’s not much that needs to be said: It’s dark, moody, and everything Rihanna’s image ought to be right now.“Wait Your Turn” may not be her next “Umbrella,” but it’s still makes for one hell of a performance piece. I love Rihan-noir!
Yes, Muusers…I’m finally sorting through the inbox.“Delusional” is the debut single by Simon Curtis, a rather attractive fellow who starred in “Spectacular!”, which is sort of like Nickelodeon’s response to High School Musical.He also enjoys awkward dancing to Madonna’s worst single.“Delusional” is very ‘modern’ sounding and Justin/Timbaland ‘06-’08 reminiscent, and inc
Today I received a press release in my inbox regarding the November 9 release of the Sugababes‘ second single off of Sweet 7, “About A Girl.” Since suspending my disbelief was simply not an option about halfway through reading, I decided to share some of the many moments throughout that made me…reflect on the situation.2009 [...]
Just last night, I was tweet-lamenting the fact that the latest series of “3″ mixes to hit the net have been, to say the very least, mediocre.Once again, The Knocks have answered my call.With their OFFICIAL (yes, this mix will be released on iTunes!) club mix of “3,” the Knocks boys smooth over the grating [...]
