A few years ago...

I was introduced to Charlotte Martin from first hearing her "Everytime it Rains." A couple friends and I drove to Hartford and waited painfully thru several acts before Charlotte was to take the stage at this tiny, dive bar downtown. After a couple of beers and hours had passed, we finally asked someone if they knew when Charlotte would be coming out...... she wouldn't be! She apparently got sick and couldn't sing that night. We left down and out... but I don't hold it against her, her voice is her job and when it's broken, well, you can't work. This version of The Cure's "Just Like Heaven" she did on her "Reproductions" album (a CD of cover songs) is one of my ultimate favorite songs. It is a beautiful version and she really brings out the beauty of the lyrics.

just one of those 80's big hair bands....

I cannot believe I came across this today.. Europe actually has a new album that was released? The 80's hair band, with their hits "Carrie" and "Final Countdown." It was released in Sweden in early September and will be releasing next month in the UK. It has no set release date for the states. I honestly am in shock - I didn't think they were still around! And I am just finding out that the band that got me through School Patrol Camp when I was in fifth grade, is back at it again! WITH THEIR EIGTH STUDIO RELEASE! Once again Sweden, you rock my world! Who knew?!

September 29th, 2009: A day of Girl Power

Tomorrow, 5 major female artists (though some may argue one of these) are dropping new CDs, compilations and/or new singles. Britney Spears will drop her newest Max Martin produced single, "3." This will be featured on her late October release of her Greatest Hits, her first ever. (Unfortunately we haven't been able to score a leak on this one yet.) The beautiful & Dancing With the Stars Mya will release her newest album "Beauty & the Streets," featuring Bun B. We are totally digging her latest single here because it's as if she has learned a few lessons from Ciara. Mariah Carey will drop her 12th studio album, "Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel." We haven't been loving her single "Obsessed" and really want to see MC return to her days of Pop Ballads and curly locks! Madonna will also be dropping her greatest hits album with her latest single, "Celebration." We here at WonkyPop LOVE LOVE LOVE this single and the video.... it grew on us rather rapidly! We also believe Madonna is doing this Greatest Hits to get out of her current record contract and move on over with Live Nation. Good for you Madge! And finally, the ever so popular Barbara Streisand will be releasing her "Love is the Answer," a collection of jazz standards.

A little Rainbow on a gloomy Friday

Though Jason Mraz has not been around that long, the song "Rainbow Connection" goes all the way back to 1981. I adore Jason's version of this song. Happy Flashback Friday everyone!


Here is the original Muppet Movie version!
