Annie From Norway

My (kinda) namesake from Norway makes sweet electro pop of the addictive kind. Check out her hits “Heartbeat” and new single “I Know Your Girlfriend Hates Me” below:

Don’t Trust Any1

What do Mariah Carey, Janet Jackson, Ashlee Simpson and Goldfrapp have in common? They don’t trust their fans. More precisely, they don’t trust their fans on the internet, or how else can it be explained that they did not offer full-length streams of their songs prior to release?

If You Love Me, Why’d You Let Me Go?

Head over to www.coldplay.com and download the first single of the upcoming album “Viva La Vida or Death And All His Friends” called “Violet Hill” for free. You better hurry though because it’s only available for a week. If the single is any indication, it’s going to be a fantastic album - I’m looking forward to it!

Spot on Gillian

The title may be quite blah but at least the impending release of the second X-Files movie means spotlight on Gillian Anderson again. She recently did a photoshoot and interview with Maxim, and as was to be expected, the photos are a lot easier on the eyes than the interview is on the brain (no offense to Gillian Anderson, but MAXIM?!). Let’s have a look, shall we?

Snow White re-incarnate

I have recently watched “La Reine Margot”(Queen Margot) which I can only recommend to anyone into long, bloody costume dramas. And also to fans of Isabelle Adjani, who looks like Snow White re-incarnate: long black hair, blue eyes, red lips and pale skin. Here’s the proof:

Discuss!

Or more precisely, vote! Today’s poll question on the IMDB is “What do you think of the title for the new X-Files movie — The X-Files: I Want to Believe?”. Not that the powers that be are going to change anything but I still think it can’t hurt to let them know what you think. Let’s just say I chose the third option… why they would choose a title with so much history when apparently it is not a mythology movie? Seems to me someone tried hard to bring the mysterious back ;)!

Let’s Go Down Under

For no particular reason (Wikipedia tells me Australia Day was on January 26th, already): three songs by Australian artists - Delta Goodrem, Gabriella Cilmi and good old Kylie Minogue (and I use “old” in the best possible way - that woman has been around for 20 years!)

Things to do in 4 Minutes

Apparently wear your granny’s underwear, give free anatomy lessons, flirt with Justin Timberlake and show how bendy you are at 49 - Madonna does all that in the video for her new single “4 Minutes”, as you can see below:

Around the world

It’s debatable whether it’s better to have an ohrwurm in a language you understand or not - if you don’t know what is sung, you can concentrate on the music but on the other hand, a song consists of the music AND the lyrics. That interesting controversy aside, here a few of my favorite songs that are not in English: discover Spanish, French, German, Gaelic, Hebrew, Arabic, Italian, Swedish, Japanese, Turkish and Hindi songs!
