Everyone with ears has been heralding Jamelia's Beware Of The Dog as the pop song of the year, and I am pleased to report that they are indeed correct. Experience the aural pleasure yourself:Beware of the DogI'm not usually a fan of Jamelia - I thought Superstar was pretty good, but my hatred of Thank You knew no bounds - but this is quite simply amazing.The comparisons to S.O.S. by Rihanna are

The film that everyone on the internet has been waiting for, Snakes On A Plane, hit cinemas last night, but does it live up to the hype? In a word: yes. There's sufficient plot to explain why the snakes are on the plane, but not too much to distract from the reptilian high jinks, which of course is what everyone wants to see. The whole thing is utterly ludicrous, but the hilarity is obviously

If we're to believe Play.com, Girls Aloud are going to be releasing a Greatest Hits on 23rd October. We all know what happens after pop groups release three studio albums followed by a Greatest Hits: unless they're the bewilderingly durable Westlife, they split up. And we all know what Girls Aloud splitting up would be: a fucking disaster, that's what. Is it too much to hope that Play.com has got

Eight posts on this blog and still no mention of Rufus Wainwright, my favourite singer ever? That's just Not On.It seems like forever since Rufus' last album, Want Two, came out (it was actually less than two years ago) but we don't have too much longer to wait until he releases his fifth album, which has been pencilled in for 2007; I just hope it's released closer to January than December.There

I don't mean to bang on about Veronica Mars - except I do, until every person in the whole world watches this amazing show - so this is going to be my last word on the subject until season three premieres on 3rd October. If you're yet to be converted, check out this promo: And that is why Veronica Mars is my homegirl.

I've loved Ainslie ever since he was on the first series of Fame Academy, so I was hugely excited when I found out that he was releasing an album. The release of the album is something he's pretty much doing all by himself, right down to taking the albums to the Post Office to send them; this means it's destined not to be heard by many people, which is a shame because although it's not exactly

It's officially Extreme Scissor Sisters Appreciation Mania over here at ASoDA Towers, with their ace new video cementing the fact that Scissor Sisters are indeed Quite Good. The video manages to simultaneously be beautiful, fun, arty, hilarious, terrifying and very, very gay, i.e. it is immense. See for yourself:OK, so you really need to see it on TV to get the full effect, but you get the

One of the problems of making film version of books is that though they can be good, they can never really live up to the source material. I've got better at not complaining about the liberties films take with some of my favourite books - I enjoyed the latest two Harry Potter films, for instance, and I loved the recent film adaptation of Pride and Prejudice - but there are some things I simply

Now that Patrick Wolf has put his next album back to January, I can say with quite a lot of confidence that my favourite albm of 2006 is going to be The Crane Wife by favourite band, The Decemberists. The tracklist looks like this:1. The Crane Wife 32. The Island -Come and See -The Landlord's Daughter -You'll Not Feel the Drowning3. Yankee Bayonet (I Will Be Home Then)4. O Valencia

Veronica: Why are you here?Lilly: Don't you watch any horror movies? My soul is doomed to walk the earth until justice has been served.Veronica: Really?Lilly: Yeah, that and, as kind of a side project, I dispense fashion advice.Veronica Mars is the best show on TV. If you don't agree with that, you obviously didn't read the above quote.The agonisingly long gap between the end of season two and

Let's talk about Lily Allen. Everyone else is, and it won't be very long until she's boring and passé, so consider this me striking while the iron is still hot.Here's the thing about Lily Allen: she's not actually very good.Ever since PopJustice mentioned Lily a few months ago, before the bandwagon was thoroughly jumped on, I've been trying to 'get' her, but so far I've failed miserably.

Hello. I feel like some sort of introductory post is both necessary and inevitable, hence me writing this.Every now and then I get the urge to write some sort of music blog, even though past incarnations have never been terribly successful. (f you've seen my past blogs, you'll know what I'm talking about. If you haven't - well, they're as embarrassing as you'd expect something written by a
