Sheryl Crow to cover Eternal’s “I Am Blessed”

Sheryl Crow is putting the final touches to the eagerly awaited new album 100 Miles From Memphis and there is some news around that is exciting and bizarre. The singer is allegedly covering a song made popular in the UK by Eternal. It’s called “I Am Blessed” and we remember it coming out but we thought it was too templated and geared towards the ballad market. Some critics compared it to Whitney Houston, but we though it was bland. So, we are curious as to why Sheryl is covering that song. At any rate, the last time someone covered an Eternal song they scored the top spot on the Billboard Charts. That was when Monica did “Angel Of Mine.” So, good luck to her.

Someone allegedly snuck into a record company meeting on Britney Spears news album and was later ejected but with some relevant news on the direction and release date of the album. The album is set to have a deep and dark sound, but also “subliminal.” No, word yet on what subliminal music is. Does that mean that Britney Spears is going to being singing something in code that only the subconscious ear could hear forcing us into some cult following? That’s quite vague and somewhat creepy. But, here’s the quote follow by the source: “Yesterday we were in a meeting with some staff working in the career of Britney Spears and told us that the new disc is recorded by 70% and their plan is to launch on Halloween since the concept of the album will be very dark and subliminal also talks of a tour, which is ruled by the last time for the tentative dates for the launches are, the album in October and single at the end of August talked about the concept of this new stage and as I say goes to be very subliminal and dark.”

New Nelly Furtado track “Girlfriend In This City” has leaked!

Nelly Furtado is back to doing some English songs after a stint at Spanish music with Mi Plan. This new song is so good that it almost makes us forget that Nelly Furtado sold her soul to the devil for Loose. It’s upbeat yet yearning. It’s a very well-arranged song. We hope it’s a single from her next album, which will be titled Lifestyle and will drop on May 25th, 2010. Click below to listen to it.

Charlotte Church working on album, puts done previous one

“Charlotte appeared on ‘Friday Night With Jonathan Ross’ on 13th March 2010, where she confirmed that she had already begun writing and recording her sixth studio album. Church also stated that the album was of a different sound to previous, more mature with a ‘kooky’ vibe.”

“Charlotte Church is convinced her forthcoming album is “a hell of a lot better” than her debut pop record – because she was “so little” when she recorded Tissues And Issues.

-

The Welsh singer was aged just 19 when she released the 2005 album, which peaked at number five in the charts.

She’s now hard at work on her next studio release – and is confident her songwriting ability has improved immensely in the last five years.

Church tells the Guardian newspaper, “I’ve been songwriting a lot recently, because I had stuff to say and because there’s a little part of me that wants to be a poet, but also because nobody really writes songs for my range.

“When I listen back to Tissues and Issues, that was kind of my first try at writing, and I think ahhh! So little! I might think that of this album in 10 years’ time. But I don’t think so. I think it’s a hell of a lot better.”"

We don’t know what she is talking about. Tissues And Issues was great!

The remix album that was supposed to bring out the best from the Memoirs Of An Imperfect Angel sessions is nowhere to be found. The original release date was supposed to be March 30, 2010 preceded by the two singles “Up Out My Face” with Nicki Minaj and “Angels Cry” with Ne-Yo, but there has been no news about it and the album cover art hasn’t surfaced yet. In the Japanese lists for album releases, the album has “release cancelled” on it. Click here to check it out. Mariah’s actions as of late have been very disregarding of her lambs. It’s one thing to cancel an album, it’s another not to announce it until fans hear of it from another source. It’s seems that Mariah does not care any longer for her loyal fan base.
