It's Scopitone Saturday!!

This week we have a Peugeot ad set to a ridiculous song.  It really is beyond description so you'll just have to see for yourself:




Amazing. 

Sugababes' 'About A Girl' video - Same great taste, now with Jade (video)

An incomprehensible but AMAZING video for the best song Sugababes have chucked out in about 3 albums.  In it, the girls drive a car, wear very little, and then do some dodgy stage fighting with men in leather jackets.  In other words it is incredible. 


Out Nov 9

Shakira loves all the 'Men In Town' in new leaked track

 Shakira continues down the electro road with this leaked track, presumably from her upcoming album, and it makes us quite hopeful that the project is going to be very very good.  We're loving the talky bits too.  You can always count on Shakira to mess with a formula just enough to make it her own but keep most the good bits and she hasn't let us down.



Out Oct 12 in the UK and Europe, and out in November in the US, both on Epic

Barbra kicks the pants off Mariah and Madonna on the US album charts

Diva War '09 has come to a close, and I think we'll all agree the result is somewhat unexpected.   A 67 year old just beat Mariah to the Billboard 200 pole position by quite a few copies, and beat Madonna by a few hundred cargo ships full.  Not only that, but Mariah got beat by emo band Paramore.  Last go-round Ms. Carey bowed with about 400k in her first week, but she's clearly off her game, only managing to pawn off 168k.  Madonna, meanwhile, is way down at 7, which isn't tragic for a greatest hits package, most of which has been released in greatest hits form already.  So that's done and dusted then. 

We all get to meet J.Lo's new alter ego 'Lola' in her new song w/Pitbull (video)

Instead of embracing the wave of pop that is taking over music at the moment and returning to the genre that gave us her best tunes, J.Lo is going all urban with her new 'jam.'  We really can't be bothered to write any more as the whole thing is a wad of crap. 



Terrorizing a radio near you very soon

Ultra Nate and something called DJ King Tutt say 'Faster, Faster Pussycat'

2 people have made noises with each other and then vomited a mass of digital effects sprinkled with tragic dancing onto a bargain-bin film reel.  And now we must watch it. 



It is out now.  I tell you that so you are armed with the knowledge to make an educated decision regarding how best to avoid the song, and so that you are given the opportunity to 'make peace' in case your efforts to avoid the song fail. 

Taio Cruz and Ke$ha send a 'Dirty Picture' (clip)

Here is a song about sending pornographic images to a person using a mobile phone. It is a rave-up vocorder 'anthem' and sounds a lot like it is going to be very good but we will reserve judgment until a higher quality clip comes out. 



You'll notice that people from Radio 1 speak over the top.  Do not be alarmed.  This is not a part of the song.   As the voices explain, they are speaking over the top so that the song does not get ripped and end up on a blog or something.  Mission accomplished, guys. 

Leona's new album cover is quite nice, yes? (pic)

Yes.

EDIT:  lets have a look at how this is all panning out in the real world:
