Behind the scenes of Coldplay and Rihanna’s video for “Princess Of China”
This has big hit written all over not because its a good tune, but also because there are two powerhouses behind it. So, they can both secure another hit if not a #1. The video must be out of the world too.
Sexy Track: “What’s Happening Between You And Him” by Ane Brun
If you follow this blog you would know that we love a good pop beat any day of the week. But, what really makes us swoon for ages is a solid sombre tune. Who better to deliver this sound than the unequivocally divine Ane Brun. On “What’s Happening Between You And Him” Brun visits melancholic austerity with depth and a yearning as deep as a well. With stark drumming and simple yet direct lyrics allows for a haunting saunter around the dimmer edges of a love story. The kind of stories that pop up on cold and lonely rainy nights. This is just music at its most revealing and vulnerable. A charming track that can shelter you for eons.
Must-Watch: Video Premiere: “This” by Thom Yorke and Modeselektor
1Thom Yorke took some time out of his Radiohead schedule to do another little side project. His vocals are always up to par, but the cutting can get a tad bit annoying. Don’t you think?

Nelly Furtado is back with vengeance and she is still high on selling out. This sounds is very much like Loose and nothing like Folklore, but its not hard to dance to. Let’s see what comes out of The Spirit Indestructible.

We know that we are going to rattle you up with this one. But all we ask of you is to tell us what you think the best track that Madonna released is. We understand that the iconoclast might be a fave and even make you want to create a list of what you like, and that is ok with us. Personally, our favorite Madge tracks are:
- ”To Have And Not To Hold”
- “The Power Of Goodbye”
- “Bye Bye Baby”
- “Xstatic Process”
- “Erotica”

Video Premiere: “Every Night I Say A Prayer” by Little Boots

Little Boots is riding the early 90s’ dance music coattails like Alphabeat previously did and like Sneaky Sound System are doing right now. The bit that sounds the most like that genre is the catchiest in the song. Its not bad for Little Boots.
