Carrie Underwood on Sesame Street as Carrie Underworm - watch the video!

Bless.  Even "that note" at the Superbowl is forgiven.


Amy Macdonald asks "Don't Tell Me That It's Over" - watch the video now!

ScopiSat has been a little electro-disco heavy lately, and almost as if on cue, along comes Amy Macdonald with her new guitar-driven, better-than-Coldplay-because-it-sounds-a-bit-like-Coldplay-without having-anything-to-do-with-Chris Martin jam. 

It's very good and has a quite passable video to go with it.  The whole thing is very "credible," though you'd never know it to look at the clip. 

All gloss and HD sky shots, this is a pop video if we've ever seen one. 



If you love it as much as we do, buy the album "A Curious Thing" on March 8

Who wants to hear Carrie Underwood hit a REALLY dodgy note? (video)

As Carrie Underwood's National Anthem (when we write it like that, it looks like it's the national anthem of a nation called Carrie Underwood, which, incidentally, we would totally live in) progresses, you can tell she's pleased she's TOTALLY killing it.
She knows this is going well.  "Why not let myself go a little," she thinks.  "Just ignore the monitors and SING."  So she does.
And then, just when all seems safe, on the note that we will all remember her for, she pulls a Taylor Swift and everything goes to hell. 



Bless.  To be fair, it takes a brave woman to wear a white suit on television.

EDIT:  In preparation for this post, we spent a good ten minutes trying to find a photo of Carrie Underwood looking awful.  It is IMPOSSIBLE.  It does not exist.

Bitch.

The New Pixie Lott video is...interesting - watch now!

If this week's Ugly Betty taught us anything, it's that blogs are for ranting.  Because we live our lives by the Word Of Betty, we at ScopiSat have this to say:  Pixie Lott is a load of damp shit.  She started out her big-time career with 'Mama Do,' an Amy Winehouse wannabe, followed it up with some other forgettable song, and now is chucking out this masterpiece of mediocrity.  Yet somehow she is a HUGE STAR, selling bucketloads of albums and singles, and basically ruining any remaining faith we had in the record buying public.  We're not fans.  She's crap.  We're sure she's a lovely person but whoever her A&R person is should be dragged through the streets to Robbie Williams' house and then forced to watch him relive his drug addled X-Factor performance OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN until they expire from the ABSOLUTE CRINGEY-NESS of the whole thing and then have their body dragged through the streets AGAIN as an example of what happens to 'those kind of people.'  Anyhow, here's Pixie's new video.  Enjoy.

Sabrina Washington says 'OMG' in her new video - watch now!

The other day we posted the new Sabrina Washington track 'OMG,' along with a sort - of review. 

Well now we are treated to a series of moving images carefully choreographed to match the rhythm and subject matter of the song.  The kids are calling it a 'music video.'  

The clip is a bit 'Gaga-lite' with some Ke$ha thrown in, but it looks glossy and definitely does the trick.  What do you guys think? 



The single is out March 22, with an album this summer

New Young Pony Club give us some 'Chaos' in new video - watch now

New Young Pony Club, whose 'Ice Cream' was inescapable in both computer and car commercials for the last couple years, are back with a new single and video. 


It's a by-the-numbers post-indie affair, but it does the trick, and is just the thing to blast out of your vintage Walkman as you walk down the street in Williamsburg if you're trying to 'fit in.' 



We're guessing this won't beat the UK peak of 'Ice Cream,' which at number 40 was their biggest hit.  But on March 1st we can find out...

Sabrina Washington says 'OMG' and it is quite above average - listen now (full track)

Once a part of trio Mis-teeq, along with Alesha Dixon, Sabrina Washington is finally ready to strike out on her own.  The group broke up back in 05, and since then there have been various rumblings about Ms. Washington's solo career. 

Like now-successful-solo-artist-bandmate Alesha, Sabrina was on a reality show - 'I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here' - and her label decided it was time to unleash 'OMG' on the world.   It's a pretty unoffensive R&B tune, and sounds more like what Mis-teeq would be doing today than anything Alesha has done. 



Out March 22nd in the UK on Cash Money Records
