Se podría reprochar a este blog , y no sin cierta razón, que al fijar su atención en canciones sueltas de un disco de alguna forma quedan separadas del contexto en el que han sido creadas. Lo cierto es que aunque la edad dorada de los singles (los años 60) contribuyó a la expansión del pop de un modo que los álbumes difícilmente hubieran logrado, la ruptura introducida en 1967 por el exitoso " Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band " de The Beatles consolidó un término, el de "álbum conceptual", que hasta entonces había tenido una [...]

Well, well, if it isn't David Bowie , back from a long hiatus with a new song and a new album on the horizon, produced by old chum Tony Visconti no less. Alright then, let's get into it... "Where Are We Now?" is the first song off The Next Day , which drops March 12th. The song isn't a smash success - he hasn't, shall we say, won a million dollars off this site partycasino.com that donated a little something to the 'Gold Soundz hosting fund' for me to [...]
Come l'altra volta, l'idea è venuta sempre a Kekko e non so (ma spero di sì) gli altri di JunkiePop listeranno le loro canzoni del decennio 2000-2009.

There is nothing more degrading for an indie band than 'being pulled on stage' to do some sort of honky collab performance with a band that is 'legendary' and 'more famous' than you. The Arcade Fire has done everything they could to align themselves with Bruce Springsteen to trick people into thinking that they were 'legendary', when the only legendary thing about them is the way they found a biz model that allowed them to become the 'indie U2.' Anyways, at SXSW , Bruce Springsteen performed a show for a bunch of Tech Losers who thought [...]
SXSW has come and gone again. It's speculated over 200,000 people littered the streets of Austin for the music lover's paradise, but I remember by Saturday morning, my liver had all but gone out on me and my feet begged me to not leave the hotel. For those of you that braved all week, we salute you. Some of the more memorable items that I caught wind of is Bruce Springsteen bringing the kitchen sink on stage to cover Woody Guthrie's classic, "This Is Your Land." The performance included, but not limited to, Tom Morello, Eric [...]

El recital cerró [...]
Yesterday, the Boss came to town. Bruce Springsteen delivered his SXSW Keynote Address in the afternoon, and in the evening, he and his E Street Band played their much-touted SXSW show. I didn't go, but I talked to a bunch of people who did, and nobody had anything bad to say about it. As luck would have it, the show took place on Woody Guthrie's birthday, and Springsteen marked the occasion by covering "This Land Is Your Land" and bringing along an all-star crew of People Springsteen Likes: Arcade Fire, Tom Morello, the Animals' Eric Burdon, Alejandro Escovedo, Joe Ely, [...]
Ontem, você foi testemunha, via internet, de um momento icônico: em seu discurso no festival SXSW, Bruce Springsteen apresentou um trecho de uma versão sua para a histórica This land is your land , hino de forte tom político criado pelo ícone do folk Woody Guthrie . Você achava que nada poderia superar aquele momento? Em menos de 24 horas, o momento já foi superado. Se o vídeo original mostrava um Bruce solitário, o chefe convocou companhia para sua segunda rendição da faixa tradicional de Guthrie . Em seu show em [...]

Check out a video of the set-closing cover of "This Land Is Your Land." That [...]
After over two hours of Bruce and his boys at SXSW, the set closed with this: a cover of Woody Guthrie's "This Land Is Your Land" with special guests Arcade Fire, Tom Morello, the Low Anthem, and others. It looks like a heartwarming performance that makes you want to drink a cheap beer, pump a fist, hug somebody, then go buy some land and fix up a broken truck. Woo! 12 THINGS YOU DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT ARCADE FIRE
