Video Premiere: “Someone Like You” by Adele

1

To tell you the truth this song is an eyesore. For one the biggest ballads of this decade and the #1 song in the world, this is a sham and proof that some record companies are out there merely for profiteering. For a minute there, it looked like the record company was not going to release another video and only relied on her previous live performance, which propelled the sing to the top of the UK charts. But, this is just inexcusable, the live version’s video would have been a better offering.

Tori Amos announces new album “Night Of Hunters” and tour!

1

It’s official. Today, we woke up to an email from Tori Amosmailing list telling us that, aside from the fact that the musical she is working on is almost ready, the diva is ready to unleash a new album titled Night Of Hunters, currently slated for a September release. The album is going to be a magnifying look at classical music, a genre Tori Amos has loved forever.

Here’s what she had to say about it: ”It’s a 21st century song cycle inspired by classical music themes spanning over 400 years.  I have used the structure of a song cycle to tell an ongoing, modern story. The protagonist is a woman who finds herself in the dying embers of a relationship. In the course of one night she goes through an initiation of sorts that leads her to reinvent herself allowing the listener to follow her on a journey to explore complex musical and emotional subject matter.  One of the main themes explored on this album is the hunter and the hunted and how both exist within us.”

As if this wasn’t enough, Tori Amos has also announced a tour to go along with it! Click below for the dates.

Donna Summer releases new song “To Paris With Love”

It’s a bit lounge and jazzy, it sounds like it was made for one of those hotel compilations. But, it’s not. It’s a new single from the legendary diva that attempted a mishmash of contemporary on the badly put-together Crayons and now is going for something easier and more her. We like it. Click below to listen to it.
