I don't give a rat's patootie if Amy MacDonald is popular in the UK, because she sure as heck isn't popular in the US, and the US is all that counts! USA! USA! That said, she should be popular everywhere because she's amazing and I would like to have her babies. I don't know if it's a unique thing that I like popular UK music more than ours, but maybe they really like Rihanna over the pond? God, I hope not. Either way, Amy MacDonald has a wonderful voice, I'm a sucker for accents, and this song's catchier than chicken [...]

The AMY MACDONALD turns into an all-American girl as she still dreams of the one summer night she spent with you in her new video, 4TH OF JULY .

30'lu yaşlarda hangi yalnız ve mutsuz erkek yıldızlı bir bahar gecesi şehrin sokaklarında yürürken bir köprübaşında gözyaşları döken bir genç kızı hayal etmez. Belki kızın hikayesiyle, hayalperest adamın hikayesi arasında pek çok benzerlikler vardır. Arada bir kendime 'Hayallerin nerede?' diye sorarım. Ama başımı sallayıp, 'Yıllar ne çabuk geçiyor' demekten başka çarem olmaz. Bu kez başka sorular gelir aklıma: 'Peki yıllarını ne yaptın? Hayatının en iyi yıllarını nereye gömdün? Yaşadın mı, yoksa yaşadığını mı sanıyorsun?' Sonra içimden bir ses yükselir 'Bir gün gelip hayal dünyan yerle bir olacak, hayallerin sarı yapraklar gibi [...]

And all I see is life, life in a beautiful light . Con il candore di queste parole, Amy MacDonald rivela tutta la sua piacevolezza. Parliamoci chiaro, lei funziona. Musicalmente non affonda mai in sciatterie riempitive e si è certi di veleggiare in modo gradevole, anche senza gridare al miracolo. Le sue note, gli album piacevoli, la voce graffiante mai zuccherosa, ne fanno apprezzare il talento, ed è difficile obiettare il contrario. La cantautrice scozzese profondamente radicata nella propria terra natia giunge alla sua terza fatica musicale. Pochi eccessi, molta consuetudine ed un modus operandi [...]

Nee, ik ga er geen einde aan maken. En nee, ook al klink ik de laatste tijd als Daffy Duck (dat is een heel ander verhaal), dit is geen ode aan de Looney Toons (al verdienen zie die ode natuurlijk wel). Nee, deze Duurt Lang gaat over de heftige confrontatie die ik had toen ik [...]

As with many of our more folk-oriented Covered In Folk subjects, I discovered the work of Dougie MacLean through two primary sources: through my father, who handed me one of his albums over a decade ago, and through label-watching, after discovering the same poignant song twice over, in separate female voices, and realizing that neither of them had written it. The song in question is Caledonia , the Latin name for Scotland, and as its matronymic title implies, though it treats its subject as an anthropomorphised object of desire, its lyrics truly [...]

STV have come in for some massively unfair stick in the past, but they have come back fighting this week with one of the funniest pieces I've seen in ages. This week they published a list of nominations for the best Scottish songs of the noughties, to be voted for by viewers, with the intention of eventually whittling the numbers down to select 'Scotland's Greatest Ever Album'. And it is hilarious . The list of nominated songs for the last ten years or so is absolutely brilliant. I can't tell if it's the best satire [...]

Released in early December, " Your Time Will Come " is the 5th single to be lifted off Scottish singer/songwriter Amy MacDonald 's sophomore album, A Curious Thing ( Mercury Records ). While the album itself had an impressive enough debut on the UK Album Chart , coming in at #4, her singles have not fared as well. Lead single, " Don't Tell Me That It's Over " peaked at #48, while her fourth single, " Love, Love " only managed to [...]
