“Someone sucked the life out of the room / When that someone said goodbye much too soon,” begins Nate Ruess’ lovely new ballad, “What This World Is Coming To.” And that pretty much sums up the song right there: the classic tale of boy meets girl and they fall in love and then she leaves…

Another smash from Muse’s forthcoming album Drones. I think I’ve finally reached the point where I feel like Muse are even better than Radiohead. Muse is constantly re-inventing itself, each album having a whole unique feel and themes. And yet the songs are accessible.

Well, you’re either going to love this one or hate it. Personally, I found it a little unsettling at first because I’m not used to seeing Katharine McPhee like this. She’s so sweet and innocent on Scorpion. And she was both of those on Smash, too. And she didn’t get very risque when she released…

What a beautiful, tender song. Christina could have a hit with this one. Especially if they did a remix radio could play. Although I’d kind of hate for them to do that because it’s so precious as it is. But I really want Christina to be a superstar again, so if remixing this gorgeous song…

Elliphant is nothing if not original and I love her for that. “If loving you was a crime / I wouldn’t mind to do the time,” she sings in the backseat of a car here, her hands and ankles tied together with duct tape as her lover speeds along, headed for trouble. “No one loves…

Juliet Simms is one of the most talented artists ever to grace a singing competition. (She was the runner up on the second season of The Voice.) A truly remarkable singer and songwriter. With any luck, this one will end up on the radio and make the whole world realize that. It’s such a beautiful…

Lenny Kravitz is an icon and a living legend. Even if you don’t like his music, you have to acknowledge that. For over 20 years now, he’s delivered his brand of pristine rock ‘n’ roll without ever giving a damn about what other artists were doing at the time.

Well, you can call me a hypocrite today because this gorgeous number by The-Dream has a shitload of auto-tune and I actually love it. Is it my favorite thing about this song? No. But it does help make it the precious mix of R&B and hip-hop that it is.

I’ve been a fan of Muse from the very beginning and I usually like most things they do. Occasionally, though, they’ll start to lose me. To that end, I was beginning to fear that I wouldn’t like their forthcoming album Drones very much after hearing the previous singles. I’m not even sure why; they just…

Wow, talk about a fun song! MIKA’s “Talk About You” is an instant shot of euphoria straight to your heart, lighting up your brain with bursts of brilliant colors. You won’t hear a more upbeat or uplifting song this week. “You’re the only one I wanna talk about / All I do is wanna talk…

Everybody loves a cheesy bubblegum pop ballad once in a while, right? Well, if so, then you’ll be tickled pink by Jessie J’s joyous song “Flash Light,” which is from the Pitch Perfect 2 soundtrack. Although you might find it a little too similar to Beyonce’s “Halo” and Kelly Clarkson’s “Already Gone.”

Janine and The Mixtape, otherwise known as Janine Foster, has been releasing a track per week for nearly two months now, “Lose My Mind” being this week’s fine edition, which comes not merely as a Soundcloud file but as a video as well.
