You know you’ve stumbled upon brilliance when a cuckoo clock has been incorporated into a melody that doesn’t want to make you blow your brains out. That’s the ingenuity of Marina & The Diamonds and her new single Mowgli's Road. She definitely is the artist to keep your eye on. And despite the name, it’s a one person act. She has enjoyed a positive buzz on the internets for quite a while now, but I think the brilliant Mowgli’s Road is what is going to make people all around the globe take notice. And by all around the globe…

I think you are going to have to skate over to work or school tomorrow because hell just froze over. I’m actually kind of lovin’ the Lady Gaga’s new single, Bad Romance. Make no mistake. I still think Poker Face is the biggest piece of shit to ever be unleashed on pop music fans in years. I still think she’s overexposed and to a certain extent, overrated. And I still think all her crazy-attention-seeking-outfits are a fucking stupid and unoriginal. With that said, Bad Romance is pop gold. The chorus is catchy, modern, and fun. Lyrically speaking it’s…

Where have you been, Annie? I’ve missed you sorely. Oh you’re back? New album? Coming out in November, wow. The people at Island Records are a bunch of assholes? Oh, I agree. But you’re better for leaving them. They don’t know a good thing when they see it. You’re starting your own label? Well, all the luck with that. You’ll kick ass.

Oh yes, one of my favorite things is to have imaginary conversations with my favorite artists. Me and Kylie have had many a fun and naughty brunches. That girl looks like she’s all good but she’s such…

Earthquake is one of Little Boots songs that has been around for ages. And by ages I mean roughly a year and a half. However, it still has the soothing hook that made Little Boots the artist to watch out for last year. With that said, Little Boots has churned out some of the most disappointing videos in the last couple of months. She looked totally bored and out of place in New In Town. I understand that was the motif, but it just didn't work. Look at me, using words like motif. Anyways; then she proceeded to make…

Poor Calvin Harris. After a night of partying and boozing with some hot chicks (one even sporting a bitching indian headdress), come sunrise, he’s left all alone on a yacht with nothing but some polaroids. This is one of those music videos with a message about how hard it is being a pop star. The prodigal Calvin is trying to tell you with Flashback, that life has to have more meaning than just having a good time. It’s either that or a reminder for all you Lindsey Lohans of the world to always bring a polaroid with you…

Getting back to writing journal entries although I think I'm going to cross-post in an official blog coming soon…

I'm posting twenty random lyric selections from various Kylie's songs. All you have to do is figure out which song it belongs to and I'll tell you know if you're right or wrong. Mind you it's mostly Parlophone era songs as that's my favorite and the one I'm most familiar with. Tomorrow's my birthday so indulge me a little.

1. Like light needs morning.
2. But we are here to take good care of you.
3. I've been watching you lately.
4. I never had a ride, as delicate and fine.
5. Move out of my way.
6. An…

Mash up waiting to happen. Just saying.

Kylie Annie

You know, for a very brief time I was really into Rammstein and HIM, yeah me, the guy accused of having listened to Kylie Minogue over 2000 times. Shocking, I know. Anyways, I was quite surprised when I stumbled upon Aphex Twin's video for [track artist=Aphex Twin
]Come to Daddy and I wasn't as disturbed by it as I thought I would. Reiterating what I said in the beggining maybe it should come as no surprise but I don't know. Can't help but to feel a tad jaded. Heck, Bjork's [track artist=Bjork
]Where Is The Line fucked…

So, I was browsing through the internet and I came across the SATC soundtrack and low and behold, there's a brand new song there from Jem! The song is called 'It's Amazing'. The soundtrack ins't out yet so I only could get a little taste of the song and it sounds quite, well, amazing. Does this mean we'll finally get a new album after fiver years? First Annie and now Jem, it feels like it's 2004 again but better. FYI, I did not forget about Fergie but seriously, who the fuck cares about Fergie.
