she does, it's pretty good if not great

it's called killer love and has a really boring cover. search "club banger nation", "desperate", "amenjena", the title track

Voted for Coming Home but i've had the Alexis Jordan song stuck in my head for two weeks. Looks like a pretty decent, if slow-moving, chart.

― J0rdan S., Sunday, 3 April 2011 19:31 (thirteen years ago) link
either broken record or black and yellow
i heard the j-lo song when watching American Idol w my mom (this and Rebecca Black were my only compromises with my self-imposed Lent music ban) and I was kinda shocked at how un-catchy I found it...

Is that other Adele song a Dylan cover?
― 'what are you, the Hymen Protection League of America?' (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Sunday, 3 April 2011 20:30 (thirteen years ago) link
Yep.
Following Annastasia Baker's audition of the song on The X Factor on 28 August 2010, the single re-entered the UK Singles Chart at #24 on 5 September 2010. After a subsequent performance of the song by various artists at boot camp shown 26 September, it peaked at #4 on 3 October 2010.
Dylan's version didn't make the charts though.

Wiz made the top ten? That is seriously awesome for him. Lopez has a new single? Wow I am out of the loop.

Broken Record is amazing, the final third where she starts singing "like a broken record" and the 90s style breakbeats kick in and it all lifts off is probably my favourite musical moment of this year. Everyone needs to hear it (and the album for that matter).

33 Martin Solveig & Dragonette Hello
Is this any good?
― Matt DC, Wednesday, 6 April 2011 11:10 (thirteen years ago) link
'Wonderman' is pretty great as well, much better than "fifth single off the album, featuring Ellie Goulding" would lead you to believe.
― Matt DC, Wednesday, 6 April 2011 11:12 (thirteen years ago) link
I'm not sure how far I could rationally justify my liking for "Hello"! For me, it has good associations with warm-up DJs/excited crowds at arena gigs.
― mike t-diva, Wednesday, 6 April 2011 11:23 (thirteen years ago) link
Voted for Noah & The Whale then. :)

X-Post. Well, might have gone for Lady Gaga or Rihanna as well, but feel none of those are among their best.

"hello" is kinda fun
