Ke$ha confronts the 'Blah Blah Blah' in new video

We have just watched a new video by Ke$ha.  If you don't know, Ke$ha is a singer (sort of) who dresses like a homeless person and is here to SAVE POP MUSIC by using text-speak and putting symbols where letters should be.

The new video, for her upcoming single 'Blah Blah Blah' is banging around the internet but we can't get it to embed because an intern in the IT department of Ke$ha's label did something horribly, horribly wrong.  Anyhow, it's nothing to write home about so if you were considering hunting it down in the wilds of the interwebs we will save you the trouble:

In the video a greasy young woman duct tapes a very attractive man's mouth shut and then watches a someone with guyliner and a fashion mullet play the guitar.  There are some lazily choreographed 'dance moves' and some hand movements and all the while there is music. 

Then the rap bit comes in and we all lose interest and then it ends. 

There.  That's three minutes of your life we have saved you.  Unless you are a very slow reader (I'm looking at you, American public school system) in which case we have only saved you two.

If you still want to watch it, here it is finally:


***Worldwide viewers can still watch at the link below

EDIT:  Also Ke$ha is bad at bowling

EDIT 2:  The video is only out in the UK and has been blocked elsewhere, so if you're in Great Britain or can fool your computer into thinking you are, you may watch the video HERE

Miley Cyrus shows us what she sees 'When I Look At You' - watch the new video now!

About two years ago we fell in love with Miley completely by accident and against our better instincts.  It was in a cab on the way back from Newark airport, and a song came on the radio.  It was a infectious, insistent, and even brilliant.  'This song is going to save pop in America,' we thought.  And then it was a Miley Cyrus song and we died a little inside. 

Anyway, the still-not-legal pole dancer has a new video out but don't get excited - this is a world away from 'Party In The USA.'  It's from Ms. Cyrus' new movie 'The Last Song' which comes out at the end of March and looks exactly like something Mandy Moore would have been in if she wasn't so busy doing......nothing.   As for the song, it's a broody ballad all about BOYS and how much it hurts to love BOYS and has a guitar and a piano in it so you know it means business. 



PS the song we heard was 'See You Again.'  And it is still amazing. 

Also we miss Mandy Moore :(

A brilliant pop tune for people who don't like pop tunes - watch the video for Diamond Rings' 'All Yr Songs' now!

Somewhere in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, a bunch of hipsters are bong-repping salvia and feeling superior to everyone else.  They're also probably listening to this young Canadian by the name of John O'Regan.  The name of his band (which is really a side project for his main band D'Urbervilles) is actually Diamond Rings, but hipsters like to call him by his real name as if they run a home brewery with him in their bedroom or something. 

In any case, they think he is AMAZING but are incapable of saying so because they are HIPSTERS and instead will probably write a poem about buying used clothing and not show it to anyone.  



Good job hipsters.  You got this one right. 

Mariah ruins our Olympic experience with '100%' - watch now!

Remember when Mariah Carey did 'Someday' and 'Honey'?  Yeah this isn't like those.

Mrs. Cannon, in her unending musical wisdom, has decided that this year's Winter Olympics doesn't have enough hand flailing and breathy over-emoting, and - always the giver - has gone ahead and filled that gaping void.  '100%' is her contribution to the Team America soundtrack that NBC has been pimping every ad break for the last week, but we can't be too negative about it as the proceeds go to fund young athletes.




'100%' is out now but just turn your local NBC affiliate at any given time.  You'll hear it. 

A not unattractive man sings a not terrible song - watch Alex Gardner's 'I'm Not Mad' now!

Alex Gardner is the new boy-wonder Xenomania project, and he is both easy on the eyes and talented.  He has a new video out but because record companies are crap they have blocked the video from the US.  So here is a live version.  










"Very good."

A Friday Flashback - Madison Avenue for no reason whatsoever

ScopiSat reader Dionne wants more 90's music.  To be honest, if there's one thing the 20-teens could use it's a little more 90's music, so we're more than happy to oblige.  So here's Madison Avenue. 

Maybe if we get bored we'll start one of those '1,000,000 strong to get Madison Avenue to quit their job manning the tills at Tesco and return to music relevance' Facebook groups. 

But probably not.

Justin Timberlake is back in a big way in the new Timbaland collaboration video 'Carry Out' - watch now

Oh Justin, how we missed you.  We can't even remember the last actual clip he put out (that wasn't him dancing to 'Single Ladies' or featured him in a dodgy mustache) and we kind of forgot how good he is.

Apparently Timbaland is in this video too but no one really cares.

Cascada get off on 'Pyromania' - watch the video now!

Cascada, the euro-dance power group, went all Gaga/RedOne with its current album, and actually found some surprising success with single 'Evacuate The Dancefloor.'  It became a worldwide smash, topping the UK charts, and inexplicably (blame the gays) gave the German group a number 25 hit in the US.  Looking to keep that momentum going, the group has chucked out sound-alike 'Pyromania,'  which isn't nearly as 'shout it from the rooftops' anthem-y as 'Evacuate,' and for that reason seems unlikely to match that song's dizzy heights.  Still, it's not completely unpleasant. 

As for the video, it has special effects, men in big bubbly space helmets, and a woman with absolutely horrifying two-tone hair.  So par for the course for Cascada. 



Out in the UK in April, and in the US over the summer (maybe)
