Rebecca Ferguson’s Heaven will come loaded with this rather brilliant new song when it’s released in North America on May 15. ‘Backtrack’ appears to have its own lyric video (though not on an official YouTube account), so whether it’ll be used as the lead single remains to be seen, but presumably they’ll lead again with ...
Justin Bieber’s ‘Boyfriend’ – one of the best pop singles of the year so far, lest we forget – was given a drastic makeover by Marina And The Diamonds in the Live Lounge today, and she was (obviously) very good. The tune goes from Timberlake-like hip-pop to dark piano balladry, from seductive to heartbreaking and ...
There’s been a lot of ‘harping on’ about Conor Maynard across these pages of late, but if he’s going to carry on being brilliant then we’re just going to carry on harping… This is his new cover of Drake and Rihanna’s ‘Take Care’, featuring fellow ‘YouTube singer’ Felicity Abbott, and both of them do a ...
Let’s just put our business hats on for a second. You’re in charge of the world’s most famous pop group. You have a tour DVD to shift. The members of the band aren’t exactly ugly, and demand to see them nearly naked is understandably sky-high. So you can’t exactly blame One Direction’s ‘people’ for using ...
It’s official! Cheryl Cole’s new single is called ‘Call My Name’, it’s out on June 10 and it’s getting its radio premiere THIS FRIDAY at 8:10am. It’s the first cut from her third solo album, which is called A Million Lights and is due one week after the single on June 18. The singer’s official ...
Demi Lovato was a special guest on BBC Radio 1′s Stories broadcast tonight (April 17), on the How Young Is Too Young To Be A Popstar? episode. The programme was very interesting; hosted by showbiz reporter Natalie Jamieson it featured talks with those both in the spotlight and those behind the scenes about how the ...
With their record sales through the roof on both sides of the Atlantic, it’s hard to tell if One Direction need to release a fourth single from Up All Night. But then, on the other hand, seeing as it’s already been a hugely profitable album after only three singles, what harm can it do? ‘What ...
I don’t want to alarm anyone, but Jedward’s Eurovision song is brilliant. It may have been out since February, but it’s today’s music video première that has really shoved it down the pop world’s throat. It’s “good pop” in quite an old-school kind of way – there’s something quite innocent about it that gives their deceptively enormous fanbase something to ...
Nelly Furtado’s new tune ‘Big Hoops (Bigger The Better)’ is not like ‘I’m Like A Bird’. Or ‘Try’. Or ‘Say It Right’. Or even ‘Maneater’. It’s a big, loud and relatively short ode to being able to ‘go’ both fast and slow, and it’s the first single to come from her first English-language studio set ...
The wait for Diana Vickers’ second album is becoming more and more agaonising, particularly seeing as every teaser she’s put out so far has been 100% amazing. It sounds at the moment like, of all the songs on Songs From The Tainted Cherry Tree, it’s possibly the incrediballs ‘Chasing You’ that’s, sonically*, the best indicator ...
