Kanye West: All Of The Lights (feat. Rihanna)

Isn't this a hell of a week?


Kanye West > All Of The Lights (feat. Rihanna)

N.E.R.D.: Party People (feat. T.I.)

Nothing is finally out there.
I cannot really sound honest about this, because I worship Pharrell, but at a first listen the album doesn't seem to be any less magnificent than Seeing Sounds.

Kanye West: Runaway (feat. Pusha T)

Cannot really describe or talk about the video.
Just watch it and be amazed.

Rihanna: Who's That Chick (feat. David Guetta)

Not sure if this is the album version of the song, cause there's definitely something wrong at some point, but yes, this has definitely been in my head for the last 48 hours.

This song has also two different videos, watch them both here.
Loud, Rihanna's new album, is being released november 12.

Pop Covers For Pop Hits: Pomplamoose and The Bird and the Bee do Beyoncé, Rihanna and Gaga

C'è un bel post a riguardo scritto da Colas che forse per la prima volta si tuffa nel genere. Post ricco di link a cover e video di Single Ladies, ormai storico singolo di Beyoncé. Correva l'anno 2008. E ancora c'è gente non stanca di cimentarsi nell'ennesima cover.

Ascoltando la versione del 2009 dei Pomplamoose, mi sono subito venuti in mente The Bird And The Bee e la loro splendida cover di Don't Stop The Music di Rihanna, già su queste pagine un annetto abbondante fa.

Ecco, oggi facciamo un mercoledì di cover.

Robyn: Indestructible (Radio Edit)

Robyn's Body Talk pt 3 will be available november 22nd: it will contain 5 selections from each Body Talk previous parts plus 5 brand new songs. Although I loved unconditionally Body Talk at first listen, this radio edit of Indestructible is nothing like Hang With Me.

Daft Punk: The Game Has Changed (Tron Legacy Soundtrack)

New Daft Punk's material comes out for the original soundtrack of Disney's Tron Legacy. The whole soundtrack will drop out december 7th. In The meanwhile, I guess we could all enjoy a little preview.

Martin Solveig: Hello (feat. Dragonette)

I've already written about this single last summer but the song couldn't be found anywhere. It would have improved my summer days in so many different ways, the perfect match to Robyn's Hang With Me.

I could stick around a little longer with you, it doesn’t really mean that I'm into you.

I guess it will improve my fall, at the end.

Hurts: Blood, Tears And Gold

La canzone stracciapalle del mese è degli Hurts, meglio noti come i wannabe Pet Shop Boys degli anni 10. La canzone fa parte dell'album di esordio del duo di Manchester, Happiness. Nell'album c'è anche Devotion, un duetto con Kylie Minogue, sempre sull'onda del più spietato stracciapallismo.

LCD Soundsystem: I Can Change

Non è che non mi piacciano gli LCD Soundsystem, figuriamoci, ho ascoltato il loro primo album fino allo sfinimento. Correva il 2005. Probabilmente è proprio questo il motivo: we never really got over 2005.

Stavolta faremo un'eccezione, un po' per il titolo della canzone, un po' perché nel singolo c'è anche un remix di Tiga e non vorrei ripetermi ma abbiamo tutti bisogno di tamarraggine.

La tamarraggine ci salverà.
E Rihanna l'ha capito da mo.
Ed è anche piuttosto chiaro che la signorina non si è fatta sfuggire Flesh Tone della zia Kelis.

M.I.A.: XXXO (feat. Jay-Z)

It's a little late to write about this song, but the video just came out plus I didn't really want to talk about M.I.-M.I.-M.I.A. after knowing she worked on the (hopefully) last Christina Aguilera's album.

But this is a hell of a song, and we always love some Jay-Z round here.

Eminem: Love The Way You Lie (feat. Rihanna)

Questo è un duetto che nel 2000 nessuno si sarebbe mai aspettato.
Un po' come nessuno si sarebbe aspettato dichiarazioni del genere dal giovane Marshall Mathers. Possiamo dunque dire che Eminem è un po' il Gianfranco Fini del rap omofobo e schiantatope.

Robyn: Body Talk PT 2

Robyn è la rivelazione dell'anno, se non del decennio, per chi conosce le sue origini artistiche.

Ed è vero che ci aveva già preparati al botto lavorando con Kleerup, e che il singolo insieme ai Royksopp era sicuramente il brano più catchy del loro ultimo album, Junior. Ma Body Talk, part 1 e part 2, hanno superato di gran lunga qualsiasi aspettativa.

Dalla dance al pop alle versioni acustiche di canzoni dance e alle versioni dance di canzoni acustiche: Robyn e le sue braccia importanti stanno ridando dignità al pop.

I'm gonna love you like I've never been hurt before.

Robyn > Love Kills
Robyn > Indestructible (acoustic version)

Robyn: Dancing On My Own (Acoustic @ Live Lounge)

C'è un post a dir poco fondamentale da dover leggere, la canzone pop perfetta.

The Hoosiers: Choices

The only reason I'm posting this song is because at some point he's singing STOP GIVING ME CHOICES. I will have to agree with the singer.

Kylie Minogue's Aphrodite: Get Outta My Way

I was struggling with myself thinking about a long and detailed post about Aphrodite, Kylie Minogue's new album mostly produced by Stuart Price (we miss you, Stu). I've never been a huge Kylie fan, but I have to admit in these last two weeks my iTunes has been playing mostly Aphrodite and X. So I guess I'll just go with the gayest post of 2010 for this blog.

Aphrodite contains some of Kylie's future memorable songs: All The Lovers should become her opening number in all of her concerts 'till retiring do us part; Can You Feel Me In Stereo? line from Aphrodite will lead hundreds of shouting queens on the dancefloor; Cupid Boy (aka I Love New York meets Ray Of Light meets Any Electropop Song From The Last 5 Years Or Even Longer) is where Stuart probably enjoyed himself the most; Too Much was written by Kylie herself, with Scissor Sisters Jake Shears and Calvin Harris who also produced it; and even if Better Than Today sounds a lot more Scissor Sisters than Too Much, the song was actually written and produced by Nerina Pallot which apaprently is a big deal in the UK; but the real Kylie is in the forthcoming single, Get Outta My Way which needs no introductions at all.

Kylie Minogue > Get Outta My Way

Aphrodite is not exactly the best you could get from Kylie, but it's surely way better than Hard Candy, just to rub it in. Because sometimes you don't really need to choose the most popular producer at the time, you'd rather stick to the one who got you back where you belong. Kylie Minogue has probably got that better than Madonna. Hail to the Princess.
