[Free For All Friday]

I am currently watching videos of cats...who says I have no life!

If you don't know the score, here be the rules:

• Try not to get too perverted- this site needs to basically be "safe for work".
• If somebody starts a controversial subject, try keeping it civil when dealing with it. If things get out of hand please flag the conversation.
• It would be nice if it stuck to music, but it's not a requirement! So talk about news, current events, how you're getting your hair done next time you hit the hairdresser! Whateves, really!
• No nasty comments aimed at other users.

Inappropriate hugs to all of y'all (hi-fives to the underagers), and wishing you an awesome weekend!

Kimbra Serves Up Irresistable Disco-Funk With "Miracle"

Wow, Kimbra's Miracle is giving me life today!

I woke up feeling pretty grim - a feeling compounded by the sun and its mocking fierceness. However Kimbra has come to my emotional rescue with this disco-inspired ditty.

Miracle doesn't quite sound like anything I've heard from the Diva before- vocally or production wise- so either I've not listened to her debut album properly, or she's changing direction with her new LP, The Golden Echo.

Whatever the case, I needed this today, so thanks Kimi!

When The Music Moves You, Don't Let Nothing Stop You...

...even your son's second-hand embarrassment.

Watch Crazy People Attempt To SingThe Fifth Element's "Diva Dance"

If you've watched The Fifth Element, and are a fan of this site, then there is a part of that movie that has got to have stuck with you long after the end credits rolled. Yes, it's time to finally show Diva Plavalaguna some love and feature the The Diva Dance

Paris Hilton Returns with "Come Alive"

So this happened yesterday [see video].

Having viewed/ listened to it, let's now play the "how nice can you be" game. Leave a positive comment, about what you just experienced, below.

Listen to Brandy Cover Coldplay's "Magic"

If you happen to be a fan of both Brandy and Coldplay, you are (potentially) in for a treat.

Clearly feeling Coldplay's new sound, the Diva took to the studio to record a cover of their single Magic. It wasn't a total rework, mind. Instead, the Diva added her own spice to the production by throwing in some of her trademark vocal harmonies to fill out the song.

Honestly, the original did little for me, so Brandy's version- which changes little- also left me feeling like I was being assaulted by a Jigglypuff. Her voice sounds good, don't get me wrong, but the song isn't for me.

Perhaps you guys will appreciate it!

[New Music] Traci Braxton - "Last Call"

Look who's going solo, everyone: say howdy to Traci Braxton!

The surname should be a big giveaway, but for those still unsure, let me go ahead and confirm that she is indeed the sister of Toni (and Tamar) Braxton.

Taking a similar route to her siblings, Traci is serving up Rnb with her debut song Last Call. Unfortunately, it also sounds like she's giving us a side helping of auto-tune, with some parts coming off almost robotic in tone. I could be wrong though, so don't quote me on her being computer assisted!

I guess a live showing of Last Call, or further material, will help me get a better feel for her real tone and timbre. Till then, I'll leave you all to make up your own minds.
