Slumdog Millionaire was the movie to see last year. Not only did it sweep the boards on Oscar night, its soundtrack won great praise. Sadly though, it seems the U.S. industry had to get its hand on the profits by making their own version of the award-winning song, "Jai Ho".
I like the Pussycat Dolls, but I think remaking the song was very unnecessary. Even though it features the writer and singer A.R. Rahman, they just shouldn't have. It's not bad, to be honest, but why do you have to make something yours when its perfect the way it is? I just see the remake as something people will be disappointed about. Anyhoo, if you haven't seen it, here it is:

I think I'm really starting to get into electronica/trance/dance a lot more than before. I mean, I liked it, but I never listened to it continuously like I would other genres. This new feeling I have may be due to the fact that a couple of my friends are DJs, but who knows?
So Morgan Page. He's probably not as well known as other trance producers, but this song featuring Tyler James is so addicting. It's so smooth that I feel like I could glide through the air. Tyler James is a singer who was once dubbed Britain's Justin Timberlake, but it just didn't work out for the poor lad which is probably why his debut album was named The Unlikely Lad. Oh well. He does have a nice voice though.

I think she's a great singer to the point where it's hard for me to understand why she must continue to lead the Pussycat Dolls who alone, can't do anything but look slutty. Scherzinger does all the vocals on the album and even when performing live, she is so much better alone than with them. But then again, if you look at them all together, it works out to Scherzinger's advantage because the other girls make her even more beautiful.
This is their latest release and I love it! "I Hate This Part"

They call me hell
They call me Stacey
They call me her
They call me Jane
That’s not my name
That’s not my name
That’s not my name
That’s not my name
...why the heck is it so catchy?! I love it and just had to post a blog for them because since their New Year's performance, I can't get it out of my head! Not to mention James Corden's cover of the song on Big Fat Quiz of the Year 2008. It's brilliant, by the way. Check it out!

I remember when their song "Chasing Cars" first got airplay. I loved it instantly and began looking into this Irish band that I had never heard of before. I had heard of Interpol, but never Snow Patrol. So there I was on Youtube, looking for music videos and stuff and I fell in love.
