MUSIC NEWS - Katy Perry (hot on her One of the Boys cd release) has been announced as the host of the MTV Europe Music Awards at the Liverpool Echo Arena in the UK on November 6. The pop singer is nominated in two categories; best new act and most addictive track for " I Kissed a Girl ". "Katy Perry has been one of the freshest and most successful new artists to emerge on the international music scene this year which is witnessed by her nomination [...]
Check out a new track from Duffy, Rain On Your Parade , the final single from the to be re-released "Rockferry". We've only listened to the the track a few times but we don't love it; it's kind of mid tempo, just not that catchy, and we don't really see it fairing that well on radio. Mercy 's success came the sassy charm Duffy brought to the track.... why not release Delayed Devotion , potentially the best track on "Rockferry", as the next single? The re-release of "Rockferry" is due out November 24th. [...]

As a followup to Idolator's coverage earlier this month of Bill Bailey's departure from the cast of the UK's Nevermind the Buzzcocks , we present this clip from last week's season premiere, a loving tribute to Bailey by host Simon Amstell and team captain Phill Jupitus. While Bailey was missed on the first episode, guest Mark Ronson was, at very least, an adequate substitute. My favorite moment: Welsh singer Adele openly mocking Duffy. Any comedy that at its center is fueled by a dislike of Duffy is a-OK in my book. [...]
Back in August, if you remember we were fortunate enough to see My Morning Jacket at our first ACL taping . Well, yesterday afternoon we were lucky enough to attend another taping of the famed ACL show, this time Duffy was making her 6A studio debut. The show was originally scheduled to take place at 3:00 pm but was instead pushed back a half-an-hour because of a false fire alarm. Once inside we were greeted with free beer and a program for the show. We took our seats and eagerly awaited the beautiful, soulful [...]
Οι Holy Roman Army έχουν ως έδρα το Δουβλίνο, έστω κι αν δεν κατάγονται απο'κει. Ακούγοντας την εισαγωγή του Elegy ίσως να βιαστείτε να τους κατατάξετε στη βαρετή radio friendly post-trip hop κατηγορία, με την ανώδυνη παραγωγή και τα αιθέρια γυναικεία φωνητικά του. Διαθέτει όμως ένα πολύ καλό, υπνωτικό ρεφρέν που δύσκολα σου βγαίνει από το μυαλό [μου θύμισε πρώιμους Lush ]. Κι εδώ που τα λέμε, καλύτερα ν'ακούγεται κάτι τέτοιο στο ραδιόφωνο παρά η Duffy .. [...]

The 2008 Q Awards have been dished out in some sort of event; we've hard refreshed the BBC News coverage to ensure we weren't looking at a cached report from 2007. Or 2006. Or 2005. Coldplay were the mildly big winners - two prizes - while Keane won one. Which is funny, because 'one Q award' is a bit like 'two Q awards' only not quite as good. Duffy - who seems to have been around since Prisoner Cell Block H was on the telly - won the breakthrough, though she's apparently not as [...]
Filed under: Potent Quotables Spinner.com : "It would be easy to become a recluse ... I have sold my soul. I'm never calm anymore." --Duffy In a recent interview, the British soulstress revealed that fame isn't all it's cracked up to be, and that she's verging on a "breakdown." Next Quote... Read more
Sembra quasi tutto pronto per la nuova edizione degli Mtv Europe Music Awards , in diretta il 6 novembre da Liverpool. Innanzitutto una grandissima novità riguarda il “presentatore on line” dello show sul sito di Mtv (quindi non quello che condurrà il main show) che pare essere uno dei gossipari più crudeli e stralunati del mondo: stiamo parlando di Perez Hilton , il quale avrebbe il compito prima di intervistare le stars sul red carpet e poi di intervenire nello spettacolo principale per consegnare un premio. Ma venendo a cose più [...]
Oh, you know how much it sucks to be a successful pop star? Oh, you little people with your 4am shifts in bakeries just couldn't understand how hard it is being Duffy : “I just need to get things right because if I take my finger off the pulse I immediately feel the quality isn’t as good,” she explains. “I don’t know if other people pay attention to the things I pay attention to because I don’t just rush around feeling like the so-called ‘pop star’ that I am. “I pay [...]
Rockferry is the debut studio album by Welsh singer Duffy , released on March 3 , 2008 . She is being compared to Amy Winehouse with an early 60’s sound. [...]

If a studio chose to make a film from your novel, I'd imagine you'd be somewhat protective of the final product, down to the musical choices. Then again, if you're a novelist who enjoys albums that came out before the Duffy record, your opinions about the soundtrack will probably be summarily ignored by the people financing the picture. Toby Young, author of How to Lose Friends & Alienate People , wanted to include some of his favorite tracks in the film's soundtrack, but found that his selections of the Sex Pistols' [...]

La vostra canzone dance degli anni '70, nel contest della scorsa settimana , è risultata essere "I Will Survive" di Gloria Gaynor che ha battuto con molto distacco l'altro evergreen della pista "YMCA" dei Village People. Torniamo al presente e vediamo quale tra questi fenomeni esplosi nel 2008 vi ha conquistato di più. La sfida di oggi è tra " Mercy " di Duffy dal suo album "Rockferry" e " Chasing Pavements " dal disco "193 di Adele . Dato che i video li conosciamo a memoria, di seguito ne trovate due [...]
You know what drives me crazy? Having to re-evaluate songs because you see them used in a certain way and suddenly gain a whole new appreciation for them. Maybe the biggest example of this recently is M.I.A.'s "Paper Planes." Short of liking "Bucky Done Gun" and, to a lesser degree, "Galang" from a few years ago, I'd pretty much always written her off as one of those critically-acclaimed artists that I was never really going to get. If you think about, avoiding an artist just because they happen to get good [...]
Tom Jones dijo que su nuevo disco, llamado 24 Hours , fue inspirado por Amy Winehouse y explicó que estuvieron pensando en el nuevo sonido que formaría parte del álbum, que será bastante retro, durante un buen tiempo y, la británica, “es la mejor”. ”He tenido mucho éxito mundialmente, lo que es doloroso porque yo vivo acá y hago la mayoría de mis shows en América. Pero espero que este disco va a solucionar eso”. Además explicó que la edad todavía no puede derrotar [...]

Madonna arrived in London last night when her acclaimed 'Sticky & Sweet' tour triumphed at Wembley Stadium. 74,000 thrilled to new hits "Candy Shop", "4 Minutes" and "Give It 2 Me" while old favourites like "Borderline", "Like A Prayer" and "La Isla Bonita" were given exciting new twists. Kate Hudson, Penelope Cruz, Fergie and Gwyneth Paltrow were among the worshippers. What a night!! Sunday night's 25th annual MTV Video Music Awards went down as one of the best ever, pulling in record ratings and introducing American television audiences [...]
