Hype Round Up

As things wind down for me in Japan, the pop musics biggest hitters are staging their returns to the pop stage.
The year had been hijacked by Rihanna and Duff, Sophie Ellis and Siobhan, but now the UK's biggest girlbands of the century Sugababes (see below) are already one amazing single into their new album promotion. But right now put down those dancing shoes and go buy Girls Aloud (see woolworths and also below) get it if only to hear 'Dog Without A Bone' in better quality than this here clip:
Our Queen and Crown Princess of pop, Madonna and Kylie meanwhile slowly build anticipation for massive album drops in the next few months but all eyes this week have been upon Britney as she manages to outdo any contender in the hype department.

The Legendary Miss Britney Spears had three years to build anticipation for this release and while every wrong step she makes in the public eye seems to spell doom on her career, the worlds best producers know exactly who to give their tracks too in order to get their beats heard...


sing along o rama

Sugababes, 'Denial' Change

This is probably just an album track but its perfect pop that you can sing along to before you've finished your first listen. check out 'Change' half way through the second clip, possible next single, and titletrack from their fifth studio album out Oct 8th.

Its Britney Bitch

Britney Spears, 'Gimme More'


Britney is back... heres the comeback track. Its not my fave Britney track by miles but its not bad, it is thankfully much improved on the demos from last few weeks. It also suggest that this track will be showcased at a certain big music awards nigth and should a download release follow wouldn't we all go crazy and send it to number 1? if u havent downloaded it allready that is...
theres also this other new track available? think i prefer this one actually.

photographs in my heart

Juanes, 'Fotografia'

I go home next week so sadly i envisage myself blogging much less... in the next few weeks at least?- but ill try and post important things.
besides, since i put up a picture of Nicole Pussycat Doll, my visitor stats have been through the roof, maybes imnow hosting that picture? but therefore my visitor record is not entirely a good reflection of you traffic and im not sure how many of the almost 300 hits i get a day are really genuine.
I was going to give you a run down off my favourite albums of this last year in Osaka... but I'm running out of time here...so here is my favourite song, it got the most plays of any song i own and it contains the most relentless uplifting chorus i know.

who said wot?

Amazing well done BoyBoy56

Retro Tuesday: Abs

Abs, Abstract Theory

Its been boys week this week on pop-Hyperbole, and in celebration lets look at this amazing song that so shouldve been number one. In fact if it was by some american wannabe like akon or ne-yo it probably wouldve been. But its by that guy from 5ive who followed it up by appearing needy on love island and then failed to reunite his old band.




clothes off good times


Lil Chris - No not my future husband- takes of his clothes... thanx for EQ for the heads up... shame Gym Class Heroes are trying to steal his thunder but hopefully there will always be room for a little chris in our musical lives. great concept for the video too. wonder if that came before the song?


This ones for charley...

clearly not watched F.R.I.E.N.D.S

Shayne Ward, clearly doesn't have E4, seen the scene thats on once a week where rachel hangs up on julie, and therefore doesn't see how annoying 'No You Hang' up couples are. In fact he's positively bragging about this specific love act here so much so that his entire relationship is defined by it. Apparently this may be an edited version of the too raunchy for TV video? sounds like transparent marketing buzz to me... but it worked and i did search for some xxx Shayne action... ultimately this is what we have instead... i like the chorus actually its my favourite Shayne song to date... make of that what you will.

yea of little faith

For all my doubting Billiam did make a 'video and here it is in all its 'glory'. To be honest the chorus is annoyingly stuck with me long after the video has finished, i just don't understand A) how this is acceptable for release by anyones standards, and B) what the line 'join us ugly peaople' means?

BugLove

LoveBugs, 'The Key'




I featured these guys singing a song with Lene Marlin a while back, i love this track too, shame euro(rock)pop never makes it this far...
