Monica debuts new single “Anything (To Find You)” featuring Missy Elliott
1
We have been diligently scouring for pop music that we forgot to tap into our appreciation for everything R&B. Monica is back after her successful Still Standing. This track’s just ok, but we feel like its a teaser for what’s to come. Anyway, click below to rate for yourself.

Bjork’s song “Virus” leaks!
1
A third song from Icelandic goddess Bjork’s eagerly-awaited Biophilia has leaked. In true Bjork fashion, it throws you a new arrangement at every angle and although its hard to digest, it’s easier and prettier than usual. Much to many people’s dismay, Bjork’s “return to form” is sounding like nothing we have heard before, but surprisingly, we (who didn’t appreciate Volta muchly and didn’t care for Medulla) are actually liking what we hear. A lot of strings make the heart cozy. Click below to listen to it.

First Listen: “Titanium” by David Guetta featuring SiA Furler
3
David Guetta doesn’t tickle our fancy, well at least not with his last few releases. But,he made a good choice by collaborating with Sia, who we are crazy in love with. Her vocals shine through this otherwise lackluster track that neither introduces a new concept to dance music, nor does it sound any different than any other DJ out there. Still, Sia’s presence takes this song to a different level.
Pixie Lott sings “All About Tonight” live in the rain!
2Are we still the only ones who think this songs sounds like a Ke$ha rip-off? Also, does anyone think that this track can carry Pixie Lott out of sophomore slump?

Legendary: “Diamonds & Rust” by Joan Baez
5We are currently on a sbinge to find great female singer /songwriters from the olden days. We are very familiar with some, yet in comepletely unaware of others like Joan Baez, who we have been sleeping to everyday. If you know of any female vocalists from the 60s, 70s or 80s tell us. We doubt we will find many that we don’t know of, but it’s always great to explore old catalogues of great artists.

Sexy Track: “Asthma Attack” by Cocknbullkid
1
We’ve all had our qualms with London, this track describe that feeling perfectly. Cocknbullkid brings in elements of wonky pop with a great air of urban sophistication. In this tracks, the lyrics’ simplicity are the draw. Although she has a long way to go to prove herself, she is surely trying with robust tracks like this one. This is a shinning number from her debut album. We can expect a lot more from this budding star.
