ROBYN'S CORNER

Not a fan of Swedish superstar ROBYN but her spin on Alicia Keys' Try Sleeping With A Broken Heart (from Key's current album The Elements Of Freedom) makes me want to hear her more.

She really captures the simplicity of the song while making it her own. And i must admit this is just as good as the original!

SINGLE LADIES by Sara Bareilles

You might remember singer/songwriter SARA BAREILLES from her earworm "Love Song" from a few years back. But now, as part of Billboard Mashup Monday live set, she perform a jazzy cover of Beyonce's 2008 smash hit, Single Ladies.

“I happen to love that song very much but also one of my favorite things to do if I’m going to do a cover of a song is I want to completely reinterpret it,” Sara explained. “It would be hard to imagine it as a doo-wopy voice and piano kind of song, so I started fooling around with that on the piano and it ended up being something super fun and it’s really fun to sing.”

Watch her performance here:


Don't forget also to check out Sara Bareilles' current hit single "King of Anything", the first track from her new album Kaleidoscope Heart out September 2, 2010 (US). =O

Too Much Love Will Kill You

The lyrics says it all. Wag paikutin ng sobra ang mundo sa taong iniibig. Mag-iwan ng konting respeto para sa sarili at baka sa bandang huli, tayo ay maiwang nasaktan at nagsisisi..

Isang mabilisang post sa kanta ni PGT winner Jovit Baldivino. Ito ay mula sa unang album niya under Star records na Faithfully.
