“Actually, Lady Gaga is pretty dumb!”
There’s an interesting article that’s miles long about how Lady Gaga is really not all that she is made out to be and is just another recycler. We haven’t had the chance to read it because we need to look pretty tonight and we know what our view is on the subject. Thanks Z, for the referral. Click here to read the article.

but moral acts:
to return love for hate,

and to say, “I was wrong”.”

Natalie Merchant performs “Nursery Rhyme Of Innocence And Experience” live on soundcheck
Natalie Merchant’s new album is a little hard to digest. It’s called Leave Your Sleep and its an ode to lesser-known and historic nursery rhymes. We like her voice, so it is like butter to us, but it requires deep listening for a great understanding of this project. Plus, it’s a two disc set, which makes it even harder to crack.
Christina Aguilera on American Idol season finale!
Christina Aguilera will attempt yet again to pick her horrible single “Not Myself Tonight” off of the floor. She’s performing on one of the shows with the highest ratings on American national television networks. So sad to say that, but even that exposure can’t save the shite single.

Cyndi Lauper debuts new album “Memphis Blues”
1
Cyndi Lauper is really into making concept album. First she did the covers album At Last, then the acoustic folksy album The Body Acoustic, then we got the gay-dance themed Bring Ya To The Brink and now she has opted for a full-out blues album titled Memphis Blues. This is the cover to the new album and we all remember when she covered Roy Orbison’s “I Drove All Night.” So, this is one to look forward to.

Erykah Badu announces tour, gets Janelle Monae to open for her
Apart from her stint as a headliner in Lilith Fair, Erykah Badu is embarking on a tour all on herself. Of course, she will have an opening act – some of which are bigger than expected. N.E.R.D, for one and also the fabulous Archandroid Janelle Monae. Click below for the concert dates. We hope to catch one as Erykah Badu is the greatest live act we have seen, and that’s saying something as we have seen Michael Jackson among other greats.
