A look back at some of Amy Winehouse's most notable cover songs.
Interview by Michelle da Silva (@michdas) Since the release of her critically lauded sophomore album Wounded Rhymes three months ago, Lykke Li's life has been non-stop. A one-month jaunt around Europe, and the Swedish singer-songwriter was on our side of the world, performing almost nightly. So it's no surprise that when I sat down with [...]

With the death of Charlie Louvin, one of the longest-running performers in music has passed on. With his brother Ira, he started performing in the 1940s as the Louvin Brothers. The country and gospel act was massively influential. Elvis Presley was a huge fan (the brothers were his mom's favourites). Ira, a racist drunk, died in a car crash in 1965; Charlie continued to record and perform for the next 45 years. Alas, the Louvin Brothers are often remembered only for the cover art of their 1960 album Satan Is Real (the story of which is HERE [...]
A memorable song reached number 1 fifty years ago this week.
In anticipation for her upcoming album Wounded Rhymes, Lykke Li performed at a very sold out Le Poisson Rouge in New York. Acting more like a showcase for her new songs rather than a "concert" it was packed the hippest of the hip, bloggers, tall gay boys and possible undercover industry folks. But before I [...]
Frail Limb Purity - Ghostface Killah v. The Shirelles [ mp3 ] Ghostface Killah - Tooken Back The Shirelles - Foolish Little Girl Frail Limb Purity got sentimental
It's Sunday night. All across the country, people are watching horrible television. I know this because I drove to Nicci's house after work only to learn that she was involved in a reality cooking show, and half of her neighbors were involved in an episode of a vampire drama. The other half of her neighbors were watching Jersey Shore . This left me with nothing to do but think about blogging. I was sidetracked for a few hours by a spur-of-the-moment poker tournament, but now that I've lost my $5 I can once again focus on sharing some music [...]
