This is for all the naysayers that tried to put this single down. After weeks lingering just outside the Billboard Top 10, “Obsessed” broke in at #7 becoming her 27th top 10 single. Yes, she’s now tied with Janet Jackson and Elton John. I always thought it was a great track. Now, watch “I Want To Know What Love Is” get there, too. Side note: where’s “Celebration?”

Become an Eco-Warrior!
2Do you get angry when someone litters? Do you want to scare a friend that has a shameful carbon footprint? Well, this is the bag for you. You can carry it around to carry your stuff like Durex Tingle and a gerbil (in case) and when you want to turn into an eco-warrior just flip it and wear it. Get it.

Shakire debuts second single “Did It Again”
1She’s really taking the electronic sound seriously. The truth is, it doesn’t work with her voice. This is touted as the second single. But, it sounds real bad. But, then again we thought “She Wolf” was horrid. Still, it is being constantly played everywhere. In any case, She Wolf must hold some great tracks on it. Click below to hear the new single.

Cheryl Cole’s album cover, track listing for “Three Words”
21News around the British pop blogs is that this is the new cover for Cheryl Cole’s rushed debut album Three Words. We don’t think this is the case. Why? Well, because it’s too good and vague to be her album cover. It’s too Lykke Li. Cheryl would do something more commercial and text-heavy. We would be surprised if it was. Click below for the track list.

1Fresh: Video: “Ready For Love” by Tata Young อมิตา มารี ยัง
Our favorite Thai export, Tata Young, has an album under her sleeve and it’s ready for releasing. This is the first single and it’s not bad at all. We loved her rendition of “Come Rain, Come Shine” and we hope there are more cover versions on Ready For Love. We hear she covered “My Bloody Valentine.”

Tori Amos to do a Christmas album
2009 is the year for toriphiles. We get not one, but two studio albums. We still are not off the Abnormally Attracted To Sin binge, in fact yesterday we sat through the entire Tori Amos video collection. And now, we are getting a whole Christmas album by November 10th.
We usually don’t swallow Xmas treats too easily, but we know that Amos will give it her own non-churchie spin. In fact, she is calling it a “winter solstice” album rather than a Christmas album. Strip the songs of their original meaning and give them a newfound darker side like on Strange Little Girls. The album is tentatively titled Midwinter Graces. We already know her version of “Little Drummer Boy” and can’t wait to hear some more tracks on her Dusseldorf Sinful Attraction concert date.
Oprah 24th season opening…
They were standing so still, we knew they were a flashmob. Do the Black Eyed Peas really need any more promotion for their tired old album? She’s opening big, with this and the Whitney Houston exclusive. I wonder what she’s doing for 25th anniversary. did Oprah really have to plug in that phone that bad?
Toni Braxton readies up new single “Yesterday”
7The news is out. Toni Braxton’s next single is not “Heart Never had A Hero” or “Get Loose.” It’s actually a new mainstream radio-friendly ballad titled “Yesterday.” It’s MOR and will fair well with adult contemporary audiences.
