Robyn is 'Indestructible' on new single; new album out in Nov - listen now!

So apparently every time Robyn releases a touching, stripped down ballad, we can all count on it being rereleased a few weeks later in the form of an EPIC PULSATING SINGLE that will, in that way that only a Robyn single can do, reduce each and every one of us to tears as we thrust our hips around the dancefloor wildly sloshing vodka/crans all over the bachelorette party that is taking up the whole corner even though they have no business being in a gay bar anyway.

Yes, it's that time again - Robyn's third installment of the 'Body Talk' series is being readied, and to promote it she (her people) have chosen (made the arbitrary decision) to rerelease the tender orchestral ballad 'Indestructible' from Body Talk pt 2.  It's pretty much par for the course, as she did the same thing with 'Hang With Me,' but 'Hang With Me' was amazing so she gets a pass.

As for the album itself, it will break away from the format of 'Talk' parts 1 and 2, by including 5 songs from each past installment and 5 brand new tracks.  So, in essence, we've all really just wasted our time with the whole 3-part thing because come November 29 we can buy all the best tracks from the first collections and 5 new (likely QUITE GOOD) songs all in one go, but whatever we're fine with it.

Here's the original version of 'Indestructible':



EDIT:  And the update:

"VERY DECENT"

Nicole Scherzinger is 'Poison' in new solo single - listen to the preview premiere now!

Nicole has had a tough time of it since leaving-but-not-leaving the Pussycat Dolls.  Her first solo singles all failed to make any dent whatsoever on the charts in her home country, and her debut solo album was shelved completely after being pushed back THREE TIMES.  After a recent stint on the UK's 'X-Factor' and a hit single with some mole-less guy named Enrique, she's ready to try again - this time with MORE AIRBRUSHING and LESS CLOTHING and songs that SOUND MUCH MORE LIKE LADY GAGA SO THE GAYS WILL BUY HER RECORDS. 

It seems Nicky may have finally caught a break, though, as relaunch single 'Poison' - based on this 1 minute sample that appeared online a while ago, at least - may actually be a COMPLETELY BRILLIANT in an off-the-rack-comeback-track kind of way.  Sure it's not going to change the world, but it will still look great filling up the space in your iTunes closet.

Real Housewife Kim Zolciak wants you to 'Google Me' in new single - listen to the dreadful premiere now!

"And the beast which I saw was like a leopard, and h(er) feet were like those of a bear, and h(er) mouth like the mouth of a lion. And the dragon gave him h(er) power and h(er) throne and great authority. 3 I saw one of h(er) heads as if it had been slain, and h(er) fatal wound was healed. And the whole earth was amazed and followed after the beast;  5 There was given to h(er) a mouth speaking arrogant words and blasphemies; 6 And (s)he opened h(er) mouth in blasphemies against God, to blaspheme His name and His tabernacle, that is, those who dwell in heaven"

 Here is Real Housewife Kim's new song.




Pray hard, ScopiSubjects.  For the hour of judgment is near.

"Raise A Glass" to Pink's BRAND NEW SINGLE - listen to the premiere now!

Pink is rad for a lot of reasons.  For sticking around the pop scene this long, for telling "the suits" to go f*ck themselves, for continually striving to be better at her craft, for being named Pink, and most importantly, for 'Just Like A Pill.'

After 5 studio albums, it's high time she put out a greatest hits record, and this November she will do just that.  A week prior, however, will see the release of 'Raise A Glass,' the Max Martin-ified lead single from the collection and is one of three brand new tracks.  It's all Pink-y guitars and drums and rockiness, but we're not 100% sold yet.  Luckily, though, even mediocre Pink is still better than most pop music out there, so we'll take whatever we can get.

P- Raise Your Glass by whyyelloww

Duffy is 'Well, Well, Well' on her brand new single - listen to the premiere now!

Duffy has had quite the past couple years.  She rose from obscurity (we're talking serious obscurity too - the girl's Welsh, for chrissake) with her post-Amy Winebox jam 'Mercy,' and took the world by storm with her debut album and endless concerts during which she did things like set herself on fire by accident and then cry about it.

But even the most successful debut artist has to stare down that most daunting of pop milestones - the dreaded SOPHOMORE ALBUM OF TERROR.  Usually this plays out one of four ways:

1.  The artist changes nothing about their sound or image, the whole thing is a COMMERCIAL DISASTER, everyone says 'they should have changed everything' and then a bunch of record executives get fired

2.  The artist changes everything about their sound and image, the whole thing is a COMMERCIAL DISASTER, everyone says 'they shouldn't have changed anything' and then a bunch of record executives get fired

3.  The artist changes nothing about their sound or image, the whole thing is a COMMERCIAL TRIUMPH, everyone says 'this is wonderful but it would have been better if they changed everything' and a bunch of record executives get fired

4.  The artist changes everything about their sound and image, the whole thing is a COMMERCIAL TRIUMPH, everyone says 'this is wonderful but it would have been better if they didn't change anything' and a bunch of record executives get fired


Let's see which Duffy has gone with then, shall we?



So that'll be either 1 or 3.  We'll keep you updated.

EDIT:  yes we know this isn't her ACTUAL second album, but it IS her second album as a SUCCESSFUL PERSON so it still totally counts

All Mariah wants for Christmas is a hit single - listen to the premiere of her brand new X-mas tune

Mariah's last album, 'Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel,' in addition to being one of the most horrifically named records in recent memory (ScopiSat actually was hoping for 'Mariah Carey:  The Squeakuel'), was a BIG BUDGET EPIC FAILURE, whose very mention strikes terror in the hearts of record execs the world over.  It has been certified Gold in the US thanks to some dodgy wrangling and chart technicalities (the record label shipped just over 500,000 copies, even though far, far less have been sold) while in the UK the whole project tanked outside the top 20.

Regardless of her recent commercial failures, mental breakdowns, general trashiness (seriously, we know you love butterflies, just leave it alone) and high-calorie stress eating, Mariah is still remembered fondly for her hits, perhaps none more than 'All I Want For Christmas Is You.'  It was (and remains) that kind of VERY RARE pop Christmas song that becomes an instant classic - that all at once seems timeless and of the moment - and really sets the tone for the holidays.

Well, Miss Cannon has decided to try to catch green and red lightning in a bottle once again.  Because that's super easy to do.  To be honest we kind of stopped caring about Mariah once she "recovered" from her little bout with insanity, but we suppose the song is pleasant enough.

Now that it's October, when the holiday season inexplicably begins for some reason, we can all enjoy this little slice of festive mediocrity.  And then go listen to 'All I Want...' again because it is still AMAZING.

Shakira goes 'Loca' in new video with Dizzee Rascal - watch the premiere now!

Ah, Shakira.  So talented.  So beautiful.  So ESL. 

Shakira has been one of ScopiSat's favorite artists since her actually-quite-incredible album 'Donde Los Ladrones' entered our lives in 1998.  Sure there have been a few ups ('Wherever, Whenever') and downs ('Hips Don't Lie' but we wish they would sometimes) but through everything she's done we've been at least tentatively on board.

Well the unnaturally blond one has launched another single, by the name of 'Loca.'  We always thought "loca" meant "crazy," but the interwebs are under the impression that the phrase "es una loca" means "he's a real queen," or, that "loca" means, simply, "whore."  So......do with that what you will.

'Loca' features Dizzee Rascal (alright) and was produced by Pitbull (horriffic) but actually turned out to be quite a tune.  Check out the clip and let us know what you think:
