It's Valentines Day. Love it or hate it, you can't deny it. I will, of course, effortlessly be showing Mrs M just what a lucky catch I was. And for the rest of you, by way of a massively contrived link, let us cover you with love too. Here is a tasty little mix of covers we've picked up to follow on from yesterday's Bad Moon Rising post , just don't expect them to be all loved-up now will you. First up is a sublime cover of Neil Young's classic Hey Hey [...]

Watch the five best covers (so far) of Gotye and Kimbra's 'Somebody That I Used to Know.'
La música evoca sentimientos tanto para los que escuchan como para los que crean. Es un ejercicio interesante observar la evolución musical que nosotros hemos tenido a lo largo de los años y también fijarse en un determinado artista para ver qué ha cambiado en su música. Ingrid Michaelson recurrió a letras oscuras y pesimistas en sus cuaatro discos de estudio anteriores. A pesar de que una de sus canciones más conocidas sea la alegre "Be OK" , el resto de sus composiciones no parecían reflejar a una persona feliz precisamente. Después [...]

Yes, you heard right, Adele increased her sales by 22% this week. Amazing is an understatement it just never seems to end. The Grammy's are right around the corner and that is just going to spike it more and more and more. Hold on to your knickers. Tim McGraw's people are probably a little ticked off, letsbehonest.com. Top ten below: This Week Sales // Last Week Sales // Total Sales 1. ADELE - 21 115,973 // 95,144 [...]

Adele's 21 is in the peak position on Billboard 's Top 200 for an 18th non-consecutive week, though she may have some competition on the horizon in the form of Lana Del Rey's debut Born To Die — the standard and deluxe versions of which are occupying the top two spots on iTunes. The divisive "Video Games songstress is also tops at Amazon's MP3 store. As for this week, Adele's Grammy-nominated sophomore effort is #1 after another 116,000 in sales. [...]
At an Ingrid Michaelson concert in 2008, I remember being surrounded by sugar-addled 10-year-olds with "BE OK" painted on their cheeks in tribute to the singer's latest album cover and single. I had to smile when the same little girls snapped their heads in surprise when she covered Radiohead's "Creep". Michaelson's sweet singles — think "Be OK" and "The Way I Am" — have always done her a bit of a disservice in obscuring the tortured soul at the core of her songwriting. She's self-assured as a singer and writer, but in her dark lyrics she's constantly reassuring [...]
STG presents Ingrid Michaelson at the Moore Theatre in Seattle on Saturday, April 21, 2012. $20 - $22 8:00 PM When she walks into a store in her Brooklyn neighborhood, Ingrid Michaelson is rarely recognized. But once she hands over her credit card to pay, the clerk often pauses, brightens up, and enthusiastically offers a bit of trivia: [...]

Singer/songwriter Ingrid Michaelson 's heart is like a vineyard grape: a fragile object that was stomped on and crushed until all that was left of it was a bloody mess. With a mess like that, you can do two things: either discard what's left or use it to create a bottle of wine. And the latter is precisely what Ingrid has done with her fifth release, Human Again . She's taken her heartbreak and turned it into the finest Merlot: a richly textured and full-bodied product with deep crimson tones and a satisfyingly tart edge. [...]

Over the last few years HT faves Wilco have launched their own music festival, started their own label, played innovative tours in their hometown of Chicago and even sold their own brand of coffee, but the one thing that they haven't done, at least since 1999, is make a music video. That changed yesterday as Jeff Tweedy & Co. released a new animated video for the tune Dawned On Me, but this isn't your straight up clip. For their first video in over a decade the band teamed up with the folks at King Features for [...]

Chairlift – Something (Columbia Records) Caroline Polachek e Patrick Wimberly acertaram a mão. Something é um álbum de hits, de um pop impregnado de referências oitentistas, e de composições sutis. O ápice dessa fórmula é I Belong In Your Arms , uma boa e velha balada romântica com uma batida mais anos 80 impossível. Desde a abertura com Sidewalk Safari até a última faixa, Guilty As Charged , o duo apresenta canções despretensiosas, cheias de influências, sem ser uma salada de ingredientes que [...]
I've always loved Ingrid... just a fact. And after she married Greg Laswell the two of them have nearly bumped Gweneth & Chris off of my favorite celeb couple list. I suppose it would be classified as "chick music" but I happen to be a girl (if any of you hadn't caught on to that [...]

Nashville's Katie Herzig writes feel good folk that will brighten any bad day.

Tired after a long day my brother sent some Ingrid Michaelson over my way. This album is great. Apparently Be Ok came out in 2008? Where have I been? I don't know. Anyway... ...if it's the case that I completely missed out on the Ingrid Michaelson bandwagon (which I think I did), enjoy these songs once again! Her voice sort of sounds like Ellie Goulding's that I posted about last week. Here's the acoustic version of the song Be Ok. Her voice in The Way I Am is just so – sultry, listening to every syllable she sings. [...]
