We always thought that this was one of the best tracks on the album and it turns out that P!nk co-wrote to song. Figures!
Mariah Carey announces “The Angels Cry Tour”
3
Mariah Carey is putting baby plans way further and it’s sounding good to us fans and lambs. Mariah is going on a tour named The Angels Cry Tour, after one of the best songs and only ballads on her album, in support of Memoirs of An Imperfect Angel and its predecessor of a remix album. Some dates here and there have been announced but we will post a more solid schedule once it surfaces. Oh, and the opening act is a band named RydazNrtist, which is on Nick Cannon’s record label. Blah!
Introducing… Private
4Denmark continues to impress with pop beats from Aque to Alphabeat to Private. Private are a new band with synth pop delicious basslines and sticky sweet lyrics that bring the bop without the teeny, if you know what we mean. They are on the right streak. Expect more from them on Loft965.com. This is their new single “My Secret Lover.” Visit their site here.

She is appearing as queenly as ever, but she needs to stray away from templates and it-producers.
Ke$ha official album teaser video…
Let’s hope that her album Animal is all that’s it’s hyped up to be.
Lady Bunny on Lady GaGa
This is making us very hungry…
We really want to try some of these. We have eaten crickets, scorpions and some worms before. But we never had an insect buffet like this.
Vodka to come in pill form
Oh, happy day. Yes, alcohol is going to come in a “dry form.” They will come in pills. Yes, not only Vodka, but scientists at a Russian university (of all places) will be able to turn vodka, whiskey, congac, wine and beer into pills. Although we enjoy the taste of wine and beer, it’s still a great prospect as the pills, at least in this region, will be easier to smuggle in that a whole old rusty bottle of Red Label, which is disgusting in taste and feeling. At any rate, it’s a good day and science continues to benefit the liberals. And if you have a problem with what we are saying, this is for you: “If the ocean was made of vodka and I were a duck, I would swim to the bottom and never come up. But since the ocean isn’t vodka and I’m not a duck, just hand me the bottle and shut the fuck up.”
Another parody of Lady GaGa’s “Bad Romance”
Don’t Quote Me, Vol. 300
“The plague of mankind is the fear and rejection of diversity: monotheism, monarchy, monogamy and, in our age, monomedicine. The belief that there is only one right way to live, only one right way to regulate religious, political, sexual, medical affairs is the root cause of the greatest threat to man”
- Thomas Szasz
Premiere: Video: “December Song (I Dreamed Of Christmas)” by George Michael
Ok, so it’s not his best and we are really not up in the holiness of the season but you gotta say that the gay knows how to a arrange a song. Especially a slow number.
Download: Music For December: Breezine
10
Breezine is the last installation of the 2009 compilations. It features some tracks we have saved throughout the year. In short, it is basically the music we listen to. There is no specific concept to the album but it ranges on the stratosphere of mid-tempo and instrumentation that is less computerized and rawer. We hope you like this offering, it’s early so that you get it before the break and because we are going to be head to South Korea / Philippines in an hour or so. So, enjoy it and and give us some good tasty feedback. It’s a 14-hour flight so you better amuse us when we check.

Marilyn Manson dropped by record label!
One of the better ones in rock music (the heavier set) has been dropped. Interscope Records has let Marilyn Manson (the man and the band) go citing poor record sales. While this is obviously an advent of the MP3 generation, it might not be bad for artists like him/them because it will allow them to explore independent means for releasing and distributing their music, which, in turn, will allow them more creative freedom. We see it as a good thing for the man that never escapes controversy and, really, shouldn’t as he is one of the few music stars standing up for something these days.
Parent upset with Hannah Montana doll
2Wow. This is plain wow. This is what happens when you let the conservatives loose, they will go and find something wrong with every thing around them. The mother’s grammatical skills alone are not impressive at all, how is she supposed to decipher a song coming out of a barbie doll.
Download: “Put It In A Love Song” by Alicia Keys and Beyonce

Beyonce and Alicia Key’s highly-touted collaboration is out on the leak and many are loving it. Although, it’s not a stellar track on first listen, but it’s quite a catchy track and it has “single” written all over it. It’ll probably be a big undeserved hit just because of both powerhouses behind it. Click here to read more.
