Scott Weiland's 'Winter Wonderland' Frame By Frame

Sunday, December 25, 2011 comments
Christmas is just around the corner, it is safe to assume you are entering in to the holiday tunes - inescapably Mall or blaring from the results that your laptop.

That is right, and the Weiland wonderful time of year when most of his contemporaries did not try some of his Christmas, dropped again in October. Annual KROQ Almost Acoustic Christmas bill before us that the album's first music video this month to share the groups given the right opportunity. True holiday spirit, the artists have mercy, "Winter Wonderland" for the kitschy retro - black clip took us through the frame by frame.

Initially, all of Scott's - before - in part due to croon heard Classic, but his "Mad Man" - inspired, clean - cut a new source, the video was amazing.



"I like a lot of his scarf," Mumford & Sons Marcus Mumford said that.

"She is very beautiful," added fellow bandmember Winston Marshall.

Reactions "good" range, running from the "crazy," the video were other clues, some of these things, rather than a serious musical venture is a wink and a nod to them, it is believed.

"The planet is the first time I noticed that now there is a serious brow," Grouplove he said Robin Ryan.

Mark Foster of Foster exclaimed, "That's the language - in - cheek or not, I can not tell you". "You just language - in - cheek of his brain that he is thinking or are you? 'He must be a little sanity [in] a responsible manner."

Of course, the Yule log cozying up to a 90-rock icon and went to some baffled, but Weiland Cutie Death Cab take their own "miracle."





"I mean, he is Bing Crosby and Danny Kaye, or is he?" Asked DCFC's Chris Walla.

"He's got a Lotta Bing, Sinatra was also a lot ... I was there," DCFC bassist Nick Harmer said.

Weiland said that they agreed to fully function.

"That's good, this is classic," Walla said.

"Thank you, I mean - yes Scott, seriously, thanks for the making!" Harmer concluded.

T-Pain - 5 O'Clock ft

Thursday, December 22, 2011 comments
Work began on the album, originally titled UBER, during 2009, and the album was initially intended to be released during 2010. However, the album has suffered a series of delays; although T-Pain has claimed the album has been completed and mastered, he has rescheduled the album's release date, to reflect his displeasure at generally falling music sales. Despite this, however, he has since claimed that he will in fact release the album when his account on the social networking site Twitter reaches a million "followers". T-Pain initially denied that Jay-Z's song "D.O.A. (Death of Autotune)" would put him off from using Auto-Tune, the vocal pitch correcting technology he has frequently used throughout his previous work, he later confirmed that there would be a higher presence of Auto-Tune on the album, and later revealed he had stopped using the technology permanently and would rather use his own new version of it, called the T-Pain Effect, after leaving Antares Audio Technologies and signing with iZotope and using his very own "I Am T-Pain" microphone. In June 2010, T-Pain confirmed that the album had been completed and mastered, but that it will not be released until album sales increase. T-Pain posted on Twitter stating he would release his PrEVOLVEr mixtape when he gets 500,000 followers and release his album RevolveR when he gets 1,000,000 followers. He released his first single for the album "Best Love Song" with Chris Brown on March 22, 2011, after his three singles "Reverse Cowgirl", "Take Your Shirt Off" and "Rap Song" featuring American rapper Rick Ross did not chart well, releasing them as promotional singles instead. T-Pain stated that after Jay-Z released "D.O.A. (Death of Auto-Tune)", the first single from The Blueprint 3, his 2009 album, he would still continue using autotune and release his new album UBER. In an interview with Ryan Seacrest, T-Pain confirmed that he was working on a song with singer Kesha and rapper Pitbull to be featured on the album. T-Pain has since renamed the album to RevolveR and expected to release his album in 2010. T-Pain stated that he had to cut many guest spots on the album, calling his last album from 2008, Thr33 Ringz, a possible DJ Khaled album because of all the guest appearances. Chris Brown, Wiz Khalifa, Lily Allen, Pitbull, One Chance, Lil Wayne, Detail and Ne-Yo have all been confirmed features for the album. T-Pain released his highly anticipated prequel to RevolveR on May 4, 2011, with over 30 tracks entitled prEVOLVEr. On October 7, RCA Music Group announced it was disbanding Jive Records along with Arista Records and J Records. With the shutdown, T-Pain will release Revolve? on the RCA Records brand.  On October 17th, 2011, T-Pain unveiled the official artwork for the album via twitter.

Maroon 5 - Moves Like Jagger ft

comments
"Moves Like Jagger" was written and produced by, Benjamin Levin and Shellback, while additional writing was done by Adam Levine and Ammar Malik. When asked about the song, Levine said, "It was one of those songs that was definitely a risk; it's a bold statement. We've never really released a song like that. But it's exciting to do something different, do something new. I'm just happy everyone likes it." "Moves Like Jagger" is a disco-pop and electropop song with elements of rock and soul. It features a "throbbing" synth, fast-paced beat and electronic drums. Robbie Daw from Idolator wrote that, "Moves Like Jagger" slightly echoes the Rolling Stones’ chart-topping 1978 classic "Miss You", and added that "Levine’s voice is distorted via Auto-Tune on the chorus." The song is introduced by a whistle melody and light, funky guitar in the key of B minor. Levine tries his best to impress his female interest with dance moves like Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger: "I don't need to try to control you / Look into my eyes and I'll own you / With the moves like Jagger / I got the moves like Jagger / I got the mooooooves like Jagger." Aguilera appears mid-way through the song's bridge, playing her role as a tease: "You want to know how to make me smile / Take control, own me just for the night / But if I share my secret / You gonna have to keep it / Nobody else can see this."

Someone Like You

comments
"Someone Like You" was written and produced by Adele and American songwriter and producer Dan Wilson. It was one of the last written for 21. The track, which epitomizes the lyrical content of 21, summarizes the now defunct relationship that the record is all about. Adele has openly discussed the genesis of it saying, "Well, I wrote that song because I was exhausted from being such a bitch, with 'Rolling in the Deep' or 'Rumour Has It' ... I was really emotionally drained from the way I was portraying him, because even though I'm very bitter and regret some parts of it, he's still the most important person that's ever been in my life, and 'Someone Like You,' I had to write it to feel OK with myself and OK with the two years I spent with him. And when I did it, I felt so freed."

 Akon - Oh Africa feat. Keri Hilson Remix by Kyzz ( Tribeafrika Records ) and video made by SaschManGeneral aka Saschk ( MG BROTHERS )

Lyrics :
I know that we have to take it to the goal 'cause everyone's depending on we
See we ain't got nowhere to go but up, it's our destiny

We're choosing the way, we'll do what it takes to get to the top of the highest mountain
We'll do anything, we got to prove ourselves 'cause we know

Oh Africa...

See we'll never be able to forget this day 'cause it's the greatest day of our life
See no matter what happens at least we can say "we came, we saw, we tried"

We're choosing nowhere, we'll do what it takes to get to the top of the highest mountain
We'll do anything, we got to prove ourselves 'cause we know

Oh Africa...

This is our time to shine, our time to fly, our time to be inside the sky
Our time to soar, our time to saw, the last one in football

Aa ..

Tumse Dil Jo Lagaya, Toh Jahaan Maine Paaya
Kabhi Socha Na Tha Yun, Meelon Door Hoga Saaya
Kyun Khuda Tune Mujhe Aisa Khwaab Dikhaya

Teri Meri Baaton Ka Har Lamha Sab Se Rangjaana
Do Lafzon Mein Yeh Bayaan Na Ho Paaye

Do Lafzon Mein Yeh Bayaan Na Ho Paaye

Aa ..

Saara Din Bit Jaaye, Saari Raat Jagaaye
Bas Khayal Tumhara, Lamha Lamha Tadpaaye
Yeh Tadap Keh Rahi Hai Mit Jaaye Faasle
Yeh Tere Mere Darmeyaan Jo Hai Saare

Ik Dooje Se Hue Judaa Jab Ik Dooje Ke Liye Bane
Teri Meri Baaton Ka Har Lamha Sab Se Anjaana
Do Lafzon Mein Yeh Bayaan Na Ho Paaye
Har Ehsaas Mein Tu Hai Har Ik Yaad Mein Tera Afsaana

Aadat Se Majboor Lyrics


Bach ke zara zara, shaitaniyan meri
Oh ladies
Oh ladies
Kar ke zara zara beimaniyan meri
Oh ladies
Oh ladies
Karoon seena zori seena zori,
Tumhe hona ho manzoor
Phir dil ki chori, dil ki chori
Hai mera kya kusoor
Kya karoon Oh ladies!

O o Kya karoon oh ladies
Main hoon aadat se majboor (x2)

Huzoor huzoor
Main hoon aadat se majboor (x2)

Main hoon aadat se majboor
Main hoon aadat se majboor

Ae..
Ricky Bahl baby and he's smooth as silk
Before you blink this cat drinks the milk
You never seen him coming
Keep switching his moves
keep changing his color
Conman baby he is a lover
Cons karne ki hai khujli
Chakma deke he's out of there quickly

Aankhon ke neeche se kaajal chura loon main
Aisi safai hai meri
Entry hai phoonk si, exit toofan hai
Yeh muh dikhai hai meri
Kholun har tijori har tijori
Haan main toh hoon mashoor
Phir dil ki chori, dil ki chori hai mera kya kusoor
Kya karoon oh ladies

Oo kya karoon oh ladies
Main hoon aadat se majboor (x3)

Huzoor, huzoor main hoon aadat se majboor
Huzoor, huzoor main hoon aadat se majboor
Main hoon aadat se majboor
Main hoon aadat se majboor

Dhokha kha gayi India ki har bandi
I do it for a living call me pakhandi
Sirf cash aur ash mein jung ban.gi
Main hoon munda bada changa lekin neeyat gandi
hoo...

Quick quips: George Michael, AC/DC, Allman Brothers, Nikki Sixx, Gary Glitter, Don Devito

Tuesday, November 29, 2011 comments
A friend of George Michael has shot down rumors that the singer is in grave condition with pneumonia. Fadi Fawaz told Britain's Daily Star that "He is improving every day. There is nothing to be concerned about. He is doing fine. We are very happy. He is doing extremely well and coming back from everything. We are very pleased."


Only one veteran artist won a prize at this years ARIA Awards, the Australian equivalent to the Grammy. Best Music DVD went to Live at River Plate by AC/DC. Album of the year was Moonfire by Boy & Bear and single was Somebody That I Used to Know by Gotye featuring Kimbra.


Gregg Allman says to expect at least one more Allman Brother Band album. He told the Boston Herald "Absolutely, we have another album in us. I've had to spend a lot of time healing up from these surgeries with nothing to do but write songs. So don't listen when you hear there will never be another album. 'Never say never' is something I've learned recently."


Nikki Sixx of Motley Crue and Sixx: A.M. is already a three-time best selling author and he's putting together two more books for release. While Sixx is not letting on about subject matter, other than they will be different from the three previous, he is saying one should be out next May or June while the second is for 2013.
Scotland Yard has made it possible for Gary Glitter to once again leave England by not asking the courts to continue his travel ban; however, he remains on the sex offender's registry so he will have to ask permission to leave the country for more than three days and he may find bans on his entering many countries around the world.


Don Devito, an executive at Columbia Records who produced much of Bob Dylan's output during the 70's, passed away on Friday from prostate cancer. The two turned out Desire (1976), Street Legal (1978) and the live albums Hard Rain and At Budokan. He later worked on the Bootleg Series Volumes 1 through 3. He also worked with Billy Joel and Aerosmith, among others.

Alicia Keys 'empowered' by charity work

comments
Alicia Keys admits that her AIDS charity work in Africa is 'frenzied' at times.

The 31-year-old singer is the co-founder of Keep a Child Alive, a non-profit organisation that provides medical treatment to children and families afflicted by HIV and AIDS in Africa.

To commemorate World AIDS Day, which takes place this Thursday, Alicia is airing her newest documentary on the subject Keep a Child Alive With Alicia Keys.

Filming in Africa for the second time was enlightening for Alicia.

'The first [2008 documentary entitled Alicia in Africa: Journey to the Motherland] was about my experience there. This time we chose five Americans to come with me during the World Cup, so there's the juxtaposition of that frenzy and meeting the people we've been helping to get medication,' Alicia explained to People magazine.

A few years back while filming the first documentary on the topic, Alicia was pregnant with Egypt Dean, her now 13-month-old son with her husband hip-hop producer Swizz Beatz.

'I remember thinking, 'My son, who isn't even born yet, is experiencing all these things through me.' It was very empowering,' she recalled.

Egypt continues to bring great joy to Alicia and her husband.

She is elated to see her son progress.

'[Egypt]'s walking!' Alicia gushed. 'He's blowing my mind every second. [Motherhood] is the coolest.'

Keep A Child Alive With Alicia Keys airs in the US on Showtime this Thursday December 1.

Rihanna 'exhausted' by tour

comments
Rihanna nearly cancelled her concert this weekend due to extreme 'exhaustion,' it has been reported.

The 23-year-old singer performed her scheduled show in Dublin on Friday despite being extremely fatigued.

Jetting around the world in her ten-month 101-date tour has taken an extreme toll on Rihanna.

'She's just a young woman who just wants to have fun, but she was feeling pretty low,' a source told British newspaper the Sun.

'It's a mix of exhaustion and stress. She's been partying hard to take her mind off things, but there are days when she wakes up and doesn't even know where she is because of the travelling. It's no wonder she is feeling down."

Rihanna found motivation to perform Friday night by discussing the matter with her mentor Beyoncé Knowles.

The Crazy In Love singer advised Rihanna to complete her remaining tour dates and to take a year off afterward.

Beyoncé relaxed for a year in 2009 for similar reasons and commiserates fully with Rihanna's difficulties.

"[Beyoncé] knows Rihanna needs downtime or she'll burn out,' the source explained.

Rihanna has 16 more dates until her Loud tour is officially complete.

Her final performance will be held in London on December 22.

X Factor Guilty Pleasures week review

comments
Guilty pleasures and heroes week on The X Factor. We all have them, so when the editor asked for mine I shamed myself with my confession to loving Rick Astley along with Batman. Oh, not that type of hero! Whoops!!

Last week we said farewell to Craig Colton. A truly likeable lad with a exceptional voice but his luck ran out. It's getting so close now. The good just have to keep getting better to make sure they rise above the rest. Hopefully we will hear more from him in the future. Good luck Craig.

This week, we were treated to two songs each from the remaining five contestants. Guilty pleasures followed by their heroes.

First up however, was the bonus surprise contestant, Mr Dermot O'Leary, who danced rather than sang his guilty pleasure.

Onto the serious stuff and girl band Little Mix were first up. Bit of a shaky start but they finished the song strongly.

Their second song was brilliant and I would be stunned if Little Mix did not make the Final. During their performance the note I wrote on my pad was 'Finalists'

Midas Act Janet Devlin was up next, and sadly it did not go at all well. The song choice was not good, made worse by Janet forgetting her words and she looking very uncomfortable throughout the song. Janet has her unique style, and when she sings to this style, she is the most outstanding and unique artist out there. Feedback from the judges wasn't great.

Her Heroes song was much much better, this time she sung a song she both liked herself and that matched her style. Only time will tell if Janet has done enough to stay for another week. I will be keeping everything crossed.

Now if Misha B can get the public on board, then she is set for a great career. Her vocal during her first song was world class and she is always consistently good. My wife is a big fan of hers.

Saying that though her second track was not as good and the curse of the bottom two could be beckoning again if she doesn't get the support.

Marcus Collins entertained us again during his guilty pleasure song but it is all getting a bit repetitive with him. For the first time this series I got bored watching him. Sorry mate.

The judges did their best to try and persuade us that his second song was better but we all must have been listening to a different version at home. His voice was off key at times and the song didn't work for him. I do still expect Marcus to be in the Final though and he does have the like ability factor with that cheeky grin.

Last up was Amelia Lily who did a 'smashing' version of China in Your Hands, and Gary it certainly wasn't shouty.

Her second track was not as good but I think Amelia still had a lot to offer and her first song more than made up for this offering.

The results show tonight is going to be hard to call.

Before I go I just want to congratulate the X Factor team, the finalists, JLS and One Direction for the brilliant charity track 'Wishing on a star'. If you have a spare pound please download the song as every penny is going to the 'Together For Short Lives' children's charity.

Right now where did I leave my Rick Astley CD?

American Anthems II 3 x CD

comments
American Anthems II is three CD set to follow up the original collection from last year. Again the set picks up classic tracks from American artists, spanning 3 decades of music. There are some great forgotten tracks on here – Sixpence None the Richer for one, although bizarrely Janet performed this on X-Factor the same week the set came out!! Other ‘lsot’ tracks for me include Mr Mister’s ‘Kyrie’ (better than Broken Wings), Billy Joel’s environmental hit ‘We Didn’t Start the Fire’ and Rick Springfield’s’ ‘Human Touch’; all take me right back to No Limits with Jonathan King, Lisa Maxwell and Jenny Powell.

This collection also encompasses some more recent acts such as The Killers, Train and Kid Rock, with all three fitting into the set seamlessly. Finally, great to see Prince on here; doesn't appear on many compilation CDs.

Unseen Michael Jackson Footage Flops at Auction

comments
Unseen footage from a stop on Michael Jackson's Dangerous tour in 1993 failed to sell at an auction in England on Saturday. The film, shot from the stage at a concert in Argentina by Jackson's production crew, was rejected by the singer. The only copy of the footage was presented as a gift to Jackson's driver, who put it up for auction at the Fame Bureau auction house in London.

"At this stage it has not sold," said a spokesman for the auctioneers. "We are still talking to people, but online it did not sell." In a statement, the auction house speculated the failure to find a buyer could be rooted in the fact that the film cannot be used for commercial purposes. Given the restriction, one would need to be a very serious and wealthy fan to require more than the ample footage from the tour that can be viewed for free on YouTube.

David Bowie has denied reports that he's given permission for his songs to be used in the new 'Heroes' musical

comments
Reports emerged yesterday (November 27) that the singer had granted permission to allow his music to be used in the stage show, which was reported to get its world premiere next March in London.

But, according to Bowie's official spokesman, this is incorrect and neither the singer nor his management are in negotiation for his songs to be used in a musical.

The statement reads: "Neither the David Bowie Organisation, nor its co-publishers EMI Music and Chrysalis, has issued a license for this performance at the O2. There are no negotiations pending for a long running musical featuring the music of Mr. Bowie".

The singer has not released a new album since 2003's 'Reality' and last performed live in 2006, despite calls from his fans to make a comeback.
