This is an interesting record from M.I.A. a song that was used for the ads for the film "Pineapple Express" and was based on the Sri Lanka's singer attempt to try to get a visa to record her latest album and which samples the Clash recording "Straight To Hell".

 

Also in the clip for the song did I see on the Beastie Boys make a cameo?

Why do I love this song?!

 

IT'S SO NOT ME!

Exactly. WHY?!

I really like Glasvegas, their eponymous debut album is a pretty good 8/10 album, and musically they remiind me of My Bloody Valentine meets Jesus & Mary Chain with some great lyrics & melodies thrown in to the mix.

I can't remember but I think it was used in a tv show or something probably x factor last saturday NOT yesterday :lol:

 

Please tell me Flo Rida is not Top30?! :puke2:

 

Why not? In The Ayer is brilliant and deserves to be more successful than 'Low' although it looks unlikely :(

I love how Glasvegas sound so Scottish - some singers manage to sing without accents but there is a trend for strong sounding accents in songs these days (like Arctics for instance).

I am loving all these new entries! (well, not all the songs!) Its about time we had a clear out.

Formed in Manchester, U.K., in the late 1990s, this five-piece rock outfit hit big with their debut album, ASLEEP AT THE BACK. Combining socially relevant lyrics concerning the contemporary British experience with complex, passionate music, they drew comparisons with both classic rock acts of previous decades--including Pink Floyd and Talk Talk--and more contemporary bands like Radiohead, while pursuing a more mainstream path than experimentally inclined millennial bands like Sigur Ros and Godspeed You Black Emperor. - HMV

Is this tune being re-issued a single?

This is just trash, although it reminds me a tad of 'Let Me Think About It' :lol:

No, its been downloaded alot this week as Elbow won the Mercury Music Award. I suspect that it won't be properly re-issued and will drop next week.

Straight out of Nefyn, North Wales, (Aimee Anne) Duffy's smoky retro-soul has earned her comparisons with blue-eyed soul legend, Dusty Springfield. Voted the second hottest new talent in the BBC's 'Sound for 2008' poll after fellow soul girl Adele, her debut album ROCKFERRY featured Bernard Butler (Suede, McAlmont & Butler) as performer and co-writer. - HMV
