Sir Paul McCartney was honored as the 2012 MusiCares Person of the Year in Los Angeles Friday night. The ceremony included a number of live performances, including covers of "Jet" by Foo Fighters, "Blackbird" by Alicia Keys, "Hey Jude" by Katy Perry, "We Can Work It Out" by Coldplay, and "I Saw You Standing There" by Neil Young & Crazy Horse, which marked the reunited outfit's first performance in eight years . In addition, Sir Paul performed two tracks from his new LP Kisses on the Bottom , "My Valentine" and "I'm Gonna Sit [...]
From some friends in the business, I heard about the concept for Coldplay 's video 'Charlie Brown' long before I'd actually sat down and watched the promo. In this video meant to feel like a mini-film, the undecidedly non-ravey piano rock band play in the middle of a group of their fans as coloured lights pour down on them, while young kids get involved in some decidedly unsavoury antics. Well, unsavoury if you're old enough to know better, I guess... Click here to view the embedded video.

Getty Grammy weekend is officially underway. MusiCares kicked off the music-filled weekend with their annual Person Of The Year event. This year saw stars coming out to honor former Beatle and legend Paul McCartney . Alicia Keys attended and was the picture of class in her emerald green blouse and black skirt. Katy Perry went for a head-turning, all-pink ensemble, topped off with a huge rose petal hat. (Good luck to anyone sitting behind her!) Both singers honored McCartney with performances. Alicia reportedly sang "Blackbird," while Katy performed [...]

Paki and Jaro are two Italian djs that have been acclaimed by international producers like Robbie Rivera , Carl Cox , and Thomas Gold . Their remixes are for the most part explosive progressive house with a taste of trance and dub-tinged sounds. They've just released their latest remix of Coldplay's "Fix You" and it's an absolute tune. Check out their soundcloud for more of their remixes!

Los Angeles' Staples Center is where the 54th Grammy Awards will go down this Sunday. The CBS telecast kicks off at 8 p.m. EST, and the thought on everyone's mind is likely this: just how many statues is Britain's not-so-secret weapon Adele going to jet back to London with? Plus, will Grammy give the gift of a posthumous award to the late Amy Winehouse, who's up for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance (with Tony Bennett)? Will this be the year Skrillex becomes a household name ? Also, will Chris Brown and Rihanna bump into each [...]

La formación original de The Beach Boys - Brian Wilson , Mike Love , Al Jardine , Bruce Johnston y David Marks - actuará por primera vez luego de una pausa de 15 años, junto a Foster The People y Maroon 5 en la ceremonia de entrega de los Grammy Awards 2012 , este domingo 12 de febrero en el Staples Center de Los Angeles.

![[Video] M.i: "Paradise"](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4050293_lg.jpg)
This is the first set of visuals in a series of leaks off of the forthcoming Coldplay Sessions in which the Austin-native will flip 14 Coldplay tracks and make them his own. "Paradise" is a flip of the Colplay track that shares the same name and video depicts M.i overlooking what I assume is Austin, TX. I was a fan of his Jack Johnson Sessions and I was very impressed when I found out M.i engineers his own tracks. The tape is set to drop sometime in the near future. Peep the video below.
¿Es este 2012 el año de las colaboraciones en directo? Rotundamente, sí. No ha pasado ni un día desde que os he hablado de la actuación que harán en los Grammy The Beach Boys junto a Maroon 5 y Foster The People, y pocos días desde que habláramos de Florence & The Machine y The Horrors en los NME, o Foo Fighters y Deadmau5 también en los Grammy. Ahora toca hablar de Noel Gallagher y Chris Martin , ya que el hermano mayor de los Gallagher y Chris Martin actuarán juntos en [...]

"I'm looking for something that'll…break through. You know?" James Woods' Max Renn yearns in David Cronenberg's 1983 cult classic Videodrome . Oh, how things have changed. In today's day and age, we've already drowned in media. It's swallowed us. We're nothing but a bubble amidst one infinite, engulfing abyss. Intimidated? You should be. With each passing second, you're losing opportunities to take advantage of a culture that's moving ahead and at an exhausting rate. You could very well be alone…left behind…abandoned. Terrified yet? Yes? Well, that's more like it. -Michael Roffman President/Editor-in-Chief [...]

Today's progressive house music is like crack to the youth, and Paki and Jaro just made it snow. You can geotag them to Turin, Italy. Their other tracks are actually very sick, I did check them out, and you should too, over on their facebook page . Sidenote: It seems like progressive house is predominated by a certain demographic which is cool, but I'm totally down to see a Jeremy Lin type (Go Knicks) come out of nowhere and give us the next 'Levels'.

firstly, i was really surprised to see that cmj was still around, but it doesnt appear they actually are in the magazine business - the old business model. i subscribed for years from maybe like 93ish to maybe 2000? anyway, happy to see they're still around even though they've been really out of my brain since the end of my subscription. i knew they still did the cmj conference thing, but thought that may be in name only. either way.. its interesting to see who they, or the labels in this case capitol was pushing back in 03. most surprising [...]
Your Wednesday fare: ► Coldplay , with three Grammy nominations from its fifth album "Mylo Xyloto" visits Club Nokia for a Clear Channel-sponsored benefit show that helps out two Los Angeles-based youth charities, A Place Called Home and Youth Mentoring Connection. ► Acclaimed Icelandic composer Jóhann Jóhannsson performs at the Masonic Lodge at Hollywood Forever Cemetery; the program with the Formalist Quartet will be a retrospective concert. ► Oregon songstress Laura Gibson visits the Echo behind her new release on Barsuk, "La Grande." That's her video for the [...]

Following the large wave of critical acclaim, international commercial success and top accolade-garnering that met his last album, 20102s Troubador , and it's mega-huge (and endlessly remixed) global anthem single "Wavin' Flag" , Somali-Canadian hip hop musician K'naan makes his return to the new music section with new EP release More Beautiful Than Silence , a five-cut set boasting appearances from Nas and Nelly Furtado, and a stand-out track in "Coming To America", a catchy, but most importantly compelling , narrative tracking K's venture across the [...]
Metallica creates summer music festival Adam Lambert in Queen? The Black Keys - "Gold On The Ceiling" OK Go - "Needing/Getting" Coldplay - "Charlie Brown" Sasquatch Music Festival line up
Another solid track from all of our friends, The Two Friends, as they did a chillstep reworking of Coldplay's "Lost." Definitely a very chill track, I like. Preview: Download: Coldplay - Lost (The Two Friends Remix) | Mediafire |

coldplay - charlie brown [nice song (love the last 30 secs of this song), but i'm kind of hoping for the remixes to kick in soon!] http://feeds.feedburner.com/Wo ngiesMusicWorld
Spesso si ascoltano alcuni brani e ne tornano alla mente altri, del passato, per qualche somiglianza evidente tra le due canzoni. Oggi vi vogliamo portare alcuni esempi di brani che, nei tempi scorsi, hanno infiammato il web per similarità troppo sfacciate. Partiamo dai Coldplay : alcuni fan, sentendo "Viva la vida" si sono accorti che poteva ricordare un pezzo di Joe Sitriani, dal titolo "If I could fly". I Black Eyed Peas con "I gotta feeling" hanno conquistato il mondo intero ma cosa avrà pensato Bryan Pringle con la sua "Take a Drive"? [...]

I love it when America discovers someone talented that the rest of the world has known about for months, even years! Today, the talent I'm referring to is Scottish singer/songwriter Emeli Sandé . Sandé is due to release her debut album, Our Version of Events on June 5th via Capitol Records . This is HUGE ! I'm envisioning lots of promotion, performances on The Tonight Show , The Ellen DeGeneres Show (except I think [...]
So, I started recording this one on Friday night. Pretty typical. Then I finished up this evening (It's Saturday night as I type this) and for some reason I got myself worked up about a particular issue. I mean, don't get me wrong. There's not a blue streak of cursing or anything, but I definitely work some stuff out over the course of a couple intros. It'll either be interesting to you or not, but I hope you'll enjoy the music that happens in between! Countdown #89 ***Featuring*** Ben Folds Five The [...]
