Robyn - Indestructible (Pitron & Sanna Remix)



Heard this earlier on Floorfillers.  What a magical remix this is.  To be quite honest, I wasn't going crazy with this single, neither the Laidback Luke remix, but this remix takes this song to another level.

Miami Horror - Holidays


Heard these guys over a Ministry Of Sound album.  Not sure what the song was.. Anyways, given that these guys are Australian, it's pretty obvious this song was meant to be release during their summer season.  I mean, if this track was released during my summer holiday, I would have this song repeatedly whilst sipping some type of tropical juice or the beach, travelling, or probably just sitting on my patio enjoying the heavy humid weather.  Aye, six months waiting will be a pain; but whilst I listen to this track, it is great to reminisce of the good ol' times back when I could just cruise all day during the night with a bunch of lads.

Jamie Woon - Night Air


This guy has such raw talent.  Such soul both his voice and the song.  Hope he makes it big in '11.

Ke$ha - We R Who We R


Just to clarify, I'm sure that title is spelt like it is... Anywho, it's been three months since this song leaked/been on the radio, and it's a bit overlong to release the video at this time.  It would've been more suited if she released the video first, then the album, just so her sales are slightly better with the help of releasing this video.   But eh, what the hey.  What matters?  Sure the song is a full-throttle, hot mess, club hit, (which is typical coming this lady by judging at all her past hits) but is there anything different she can do?  I would've loved to see her release Animal, a song that AT LEAST I can take her seriously as an artist.  Also want to note, WTF was with that lame transitional editing from her jumping off the building to the crowd while the song out of nowhere starting to play?  On a brighter note, this may be one of her better and best yet videos she has ever had throughout her career.  Still trashy as ever, but hey, that's the kind of generation we live in.  Idiots caring less about the world while giving a crap of why artists snitch over Gaga.  Oh dear.

Mariah Carey - Oh Santa!


Speaking of Christmas cheer, we got more of them coming featuring Mariah's 2.0 "All I Want For Christmas Is You."  The song is quite magical, and has a bit more Christmas appeal than Coldplay's latest single.  Not cause it's not a ballad or anything, it just has more of the Christmas spirit than what Coldplay's single had to offer.  The video though is pretty Mariah Carey typical.  Hence, the barely moving, fake smiling and looking pleasant while posing to the camera, blahblahblah.  Just as long the feeling of Christmas is there, that's all that matters really.

Coldplay - Christmas Lights


This song is stunningly beautiful.  It definitely sets you in the mood for Christmas (although the song refers to reject Christmas instead, hmm). Nice story behind the song as well.  The video has such a beautiful scenery and atmosphere to it, from the fireworks to the flying balloons, etc.  Thank goodness Coldplay's got a new single out, after almost two years I've been sick of hearing Viva La Vida constantly being played over and over. It's about damn time Coldplay.

Speaking of the band, I went back on the tube to reflect back one of my all time favorite songs from them.  Take a look.
