Voice Of The Beehive - 'I Think I Love You'

I hope he won't mind me quoting him, but I read an interesting assertion in Alex's review of the new Mariah album (today's Guardian):

"Carey's voice has been mocked, bizarrely, as being a triumph of technique over soul - an argument that fails to comprehend that technique and soul are intertwined, that technique primarily exists as a means to convey emotion".

I thought this would be a good discussion to have here - it's a point I quite strongly disagree with (generally, not specifically with relation to Mariah), but I'll wait to see if anyone is interested in commenting before launching into it.

...Toca's Miracle 2008 - the Bassline mix. I love the way it preserves the sparse beginning of the original, with the beat dropping out entirely over the early vocal lines before crashing back in with the full on vworpy bassline madness.



Unlikely to appeal to those not already converted to the joys of Bassline.

The rules are here but it couldn't be simpler. 10 is the highest, 0 is the lowest, if you really don't know then go for 5. Giving reasons for your scores in the comments is encouraged!

This week our contestant is an umbrella-wielding 20-year-old from Barbados! But does she have what it takes to be top of the trumps?


Hey Mr DJ won't you tick the record up? )

You've probably all gone home by now. But a friend of mine's just finished working on this, and it might be interesting to poptimismists. A Top 1000 based on info from iTunes, Last.fm, Myspace and other internet sources.

Grrrr, embedding disabled!!!

Heir to Lil' Mama's throne? (I suppose they could co-rule at this point.) Song's a few months old here but the video came out a few weeks ago.

I think "ft. Soulja Boy" is my favorite 2 and 1/4 word expression in recent memory. (Yes, I am stealing lots of ideas from 3rd graders today, WTV.)
