Further proof that Gabriella Cilmi will soon rule the world - watch 'Hearts Don't Lie' live now!

Gabriella's current EPIC POP SMASH 'Woman On A Mission' was released yesterday in the UK and is already selling bucketloads, but as bitchy pop fans we are already looking to the next thing on the horizon.  Luckily for all of us, it looks just as good as 'Mission.' 

At her single launch at London's G-A-Y, Gabriella and her very nice outfit performed a couple new tracks off the forthcoming album, and from the sound of it they're going to be rather good indeed.  Here's 'Hearts Don't Lie:'



Even a dodgy video can't hide the fact this song is MORE THAN ADEQUATE. 

The album hits on March 22 in the UK and Australia

Let's see how Gaga's 'Telephone' video is shaping up (new pictures)

"very well"

Debut at 1130PM on E! on Thursday.

The Gaga/Beyonce collaboration 'Telephone' video gets a release date - watch the advert now!

We know guys, it's not out yet. We're sad too. But never fear - an ad just aired that confirms the 'Telephone' premiere will indeed occur on Thursday on E! Entertainment TV. Rejoice. Apparently the video will debut online at some point before or close to the TV premiere. Rejoice doubly.

Listen to the NEW GOLDFRAPP ALBUM now!

We've still got two weeks to go before Goldfrapp's 'Head First' hits retail, but you, dear viewers, can preview the whole thing right here, right now.  And by 'whole thing' we really mean little snippets of each song oddly edited and chucked on a widget.  Still it's quite good and we recommend taking a quick listen.  



Out in only TWO WEEKS and we are VERY EXCITED

Kate Nash has done one of our favorite videos EVER for 'Do Wah Doo' - watch now!

Kate Nash, the singer-songwriter who found fame with smash hit 'Foundations' could easily have slipped into one hit wonder land.  If this video has anything to say about it she'll continue to be a force to be reckoned with.  

We would do a run-down but then some of you lazier types probably wouldn't even watch it. 

So we'll just say that the video is about flying in the 60's and is a bit like Mad Men if it were British and took place on a big pop-themed airplane. 



We never thought Kate Nash could top her non-album random-fest 'Caroline (Is A Victim)' - seriously, check it out it's amazing - but she has.  Out soon on Polydor in the UK and the US later this year.

The FIRST EVER live tv performance of Lady Gaga's 'Telephone' - watch now

We're not gonna lie, we're a little underwhelmed with Gaga's choice of 'Telephone' as a single. 

We get it- it has Beyonce, and a slightly more urban vibe, but both 'Teeth' and 'Alejandro' are far better tracks in our opinion. 


 However, live performances like this give a new life to the track, and it might just win us over yet.  Here's the very first tv performance of the track, on last night's Jonathan Ross show:



"above average"

Leighton Meester is going to have a very big music career - listen to 'Your Love's A Drug' now

Let's see how the whole 'hey wouldn't it be funny if we turned Leighton Meester into a pop music icon' thing is going...

"very well."

Seriously.  Whoever is doing A&R for this girl deserves a medal and a trip to Disneyland Paris.  First we got 'Somebody To Love' with Robin Thicke, a 'Bette Davis Eyes'-style slice of amazingness, and now this little gem surfaces to prove it wasn't just a fluke.

'Your Love's A Drug' was sent out on a promo CD by Universal Republic to buzz up Meester's forthcoming album due this spring and I think we all can agree "mission accomplished."  Rumor has it some Lil Wayne collaborative mess will be the next actual single, but we'll let it slide because even brilliant budding pop stars have to pander to the masses.

Goldfrapp has a 'Rocket' in new video - watch now!

Apparently purple neon is all the rage in music videos this season...first Estelle rocked out a violet hue, and now Goldfrapp have splattered some all over their new clip.  As for the plot of 'Rocket' there is a WOMAN and a MAN and a ROCKET that looks a bit like a wang. 

While 'Rocket' isn't their strongest song, or video for that matter, it's great to see Goldfrapp return to a more upbeat  sound.  Don't get us wrong - 'A&E' was brilliant, but the duo are at their best when the balls are to the wall.
