Just spotted this Ad. next to my apartment, it seems that they moved directly from Kuwait to Aberdeen.

The charity single ‘everybody hurts’ By REM was rerecorded to raise funds for the victims of Haiti earthquake, and it features Mariah Carey, Rod Stewart, Michael Buble, James Blunt, Kylie Minogue, Robbie Williams, Susan Boyle, Leona Lewis and many others.

“The estimated release date is 7 February, with proceeds going to the Disasters Emergency Committee (DEC) and there’s already talk this could become one of the biggest selling singles of all time.” – BBC

No need for Amazon this time

After countless turmoils Whitney Houston is back at #1 with over 300,000 albums sold on it’s first week.

It’s good to have her back.

Mariah Carey does a cover of foreigners “I want to know what love is”, and it’s Mariah’s second single off of her yet unreleased album, Memoirs of an imperfect angel.

I must say that this song is superb, going by the music scene today, this is one of the better pop songs of the year, and by far better than anything any of her peers have put out lately.

But, the song also has it short comings, one of which is the song’s ending and length. Just as she was about to take us there with her voice; reach for musicality’s heavens, the song’s end comes so abrupt that it feels like something’s missing. It is short and the intro, while sets the mood quite nicely, takes what could’ve been a valuable 30 seconds off of the song, which is frustrating.

There is always another way to look at it though: The short song and the hurried ending leaves the listener wanting more of it, therefor more spins at radio and hence a bigger hit.

Zain Create have made some changes to their pricings, and now you can buy a whole album, legally, for KD 1.400. I have downloaded an album before and thought the sound files’ quality are superb.

This is shocking, but according to TMZ, The legend that is Michael Jackson suffered a cardiac arrest and has just died. He was only 50 years old.

Rest of the article:

“We’ve just learned Michael Jackson has died. He was 50.

Michael suffered a cardiac arrest earlier this afternoon at his Holmby Hills home and paramedics were unable to revive him. We’re told when paramedics arrived Jackson had no pulse and they never got a pulse back.

A source tells us Jackson was dead when paramedics arrived. A cardiologist at UCLA tells TMZ Jackson died of cardiac arrest.

Once at the hospital, the staff tried to resuscitate him but he was completely unresponsive.

We’re told one of the staff members at Jackson’s home called 911.

La Toya ran in the hospital sobbing after Jackson was pronounced dead.

Michael is survived by three children: Michael Joseph Jackson, Jr., Paris Michael Katherine Jackson and Prince “Blanket” Michael Jackson II.

Story developing…”

Mariah Carey released her first single “Obsessed” a week or so ago, it’s off of her new album “Memoirs of an imperfect angel.” The song took some time to grow on me. I think it’s fun, relatively brave and confrontational for Mariah, as she used to be subtler at her jabs in the past.

I think the new album is going to be very good and I’m kinda hopeful that it’ll have better vocals than E=MC² (her previous album). But the album cover is disappointing to say the least, I mean it just looks wrong.. and IMO she could’ve been much more interesting visually.

The new album Memoirs of an imperfect angel is going to drop on the august 25th 2009.
