Who cares about my life? Let's talk about music. When someone I recently met proudly proclaimed that she sends "songs with pictures", the eager beaver music monger in me became at once amused and ashamed. And so now, in order to maintain my one-uppance, I include fully solicited and wholly necessary commentary!
Usher f will.i.am 'OMG' (video)
This is my Ah Beng Guilty Pleasure *SLURP*. You can hear a gaggle of them chanting in the background. No-brainer sure-fire chart-topper. will.i.am bestows upon Usher his highly successful boom-pow outer-space aesthetic. I love his incredible adaptability as a producer, unlike
David Guetta f Kid Cudi 'Memories' (video)
the Guetta, who although bears the sound-of-the-moment, is quite one-trick, and so should not last for long,
Kelis 'Acapella [sic]' (video)
yet I must say his work for Kelis has produced the coolest song this year (so far), accompanied by the coolest video this year (so far).
Cheryl Cole 'Parachute' (video)
Another mark of will.i.am's versatility is his work with Cheryl Cole, their "3 Words" being for me last year's coolest song with coolest video. This new single was co-written by Ingrid Michaelson! Plus 20 points.
Chris Brown f Ester Dean 'I <3 U'
Barn Dance Everybody!!!
Pink 'Glitter In The Air' (video)
If you haven't watched both Pink's 2010 Grammys and 2009 VMA performances go and hunt them down now! I love her voice. And her fearlessness.
Laura Izibor 'If Tonight Is My Last' (video)
She looks kinda like Alicia Keys, sounds kinda like Alicia Keys, has Irish and African heritage like Alicia Keys, is here mixed by Alicia Keys collaborator Krucial...
Justin Nozuka 'My Heart Is Yours' (video)
The new album is "You I Wind Land And Sea". This is its happy-go-beachy first single. Upbeat Nozuka = Mraz.
Sugababes 'Wear My Kiss' (video)
This is my Ah Lian Guilty Pleasure *SLURRRPPP*. Sugababes haven't had a song this catchy in half a decade.
Christina Aguilera 'Not Myself Tonight' (video)
Christina Aguilera goes electro-Dirrty, but comes nowhere near the edginess the lead single of an album called "Bionic" should have. Polow Da Don sounds dated, rips off Timbaland circa "The Way I Are". This comeback single is kind of a letdown, but it'll do.

I watched scary video-- biting through lip, almost shuttered-eyes, but watch it I did! And okay not that scary though I still don't like the mask-eyes. But use of colour is awesome-- segueing from trichromatic (?) jungle to full-on colour was <3 as was scene in gold tent with gorgeous canines as was desert. plus end was very cool (to me it was a twist because epic-fail-not-laser-eyes did not identify what was protruding from her waist)
Wear My Kiss IS catchy. although-- was Get Sexy not catchy, too? Glitter of course is mega-favourite :))))))))
gorgeous wolves! omg you're right i didn't see the feet sticking out, i think you're not meant to see it cos of moving lips and elaborate costume. hehe get sexy was annoying-catchy, as opposed to clever-catchy.
oops they're wolves-wolves? damn i thought they were just very feral-looking dogs. animal-planet-ology fail
