Robyn performs acoustic version of “Dancing On My Own” on BBC Radio One Live Lounge!
What is so good about Robyn’s songs is that the sound really good stripped or hyped up. This is lovely and starkly quaint.
Omar Afuni covers Christina Aguilera’s “Not Myself Tonight”
1An introduction is coming up this week on Omar Afuni, a talented young singer and songwriter that is taking YouTube by storm. But, this is just a little teaser of his capabilities. We have to say this is better than Xtina’s version.
Must-Watch: Video Premiere: “Alejandro” by Lady Gaga
1The long-awaited third single’s video from The Fame Monster is finally here after a couple of delays and it’s worth the wait. Gaga puts her best effort in her favorite track from the album, but to us it still sounds a little too close to Ace Of Base’s cover of “Don’t Turn Around.” The video touches on everything that needs to be tampered with in order to make it a pop classic: the sacriligious, the gender bending, thematic mysticism, homoeroticism, opulently sexual dance moves, film-goth enigma and so much skin! Just pure joy.
Video Premiere: “Telephone (Short Version)” by Lady Gaga featuring Beyoncé
1Lady Gaga’s collaboration with Beyonce, “Telephone,” has gotten the cut. First because 9 minute plus video was too long for airing. Second, MTV has allegedly banned the video because it was too suggestive. This is the same channel that permits homophobic and sexist videos to air. But a little female empowerment in pop is not OK. It’s funny how MTV thinks it still has a clout in what shapes the pop world. At any rate, this is the shorter version.

Melody Gardot to release deluxe edition of album
1
Melody Gardot up on the cane and on top of our list of best album of 2009, is ready to take over the world. Her second album My One And Only Thrill has been spinning around radio stations and she has a couple of Grammy nominations under her belt. So, naturally, it’s time to deluxe that album. The monumental CD will come with 5 new songs. Three of which are different versions of other tracks and two are titled “Love Me Like A River Does” and “Ain’t No Sunshine.” We wonder if the latter is a Bill Withers cover and we hope because it fits perfectly with the theme of the disc.

First there was his debut album Complete Me which was jam-packed with hits. Then there was the remix album for it Re-Complete Me. Now, Frankmusik is releasing Completely Me an acoustic reworking on the album that sounds, surprisingly, fresh. It’s heavy on the piano and the vocals are rearranged. It sounds like a bunch of good YouTube covers. Click here below for clips.
