Paul Potts is just your average mobile salesman living in England…until one day he enters Britain’s Got Talent contest and belts out Nessum Dorma for Simon Cowell and damn if his performance doesn’t produce goose bumps! Watch for yourself how dreams really do come true.

Working Title Films has bought the film rights to a documentary about the Young@Heart chorus of senior citizens who perform cover songs to rock and pop classics. Pretty cool!

If you’re a hipster plugged into the digital revolution with an iPod, then you should definitely read this article. Here’s the punchline: “Holding the iPod just two inches away from their chests for 5 to 10 seconds was enough to cause electrical interference half the time.” Hey, [...]

A family friend recently died. For the funeral, the family requested a song by Joe Wise called “I Believe.” I went to iTunes figuring at this point in the game every major music catalog owner must have taken the time to digitize their songs and put them online. Not so. Not only was the song [...]

Growing older means never having to go a day without prescription drugs. Just to spice things up a little, we recommend popping your daily dosage while listening to Placebo’s “Meds.” It rocks! Plus it has all kinds of hallucinogenic objects lip-syncing the words.

Arricept sing-along-songs for those who can’t quite seem to remember. Please join Eddie Vedder and Pearl Jam in their rendition of “Elderly woman behind the counter in a small town.” All together now…

The key to living a long life is doing something you love. It’s a simple truth, but for most people, a murky reality. The tricky part is getting paid to do what you love and be able to support yourself. Guitarist Les Paul has mastered living. Born in 1915, he’s still out in the clubs [...]

With a name like Iggy Pop, you’d think the guy had come from a family of artisan soda makers. Proud papa takes one look at the newborn’s face and declares with gusto: Iggy Pop. That, of course, is a bogus story. In fact, Iggy was born to a high school English teacher and baseball coach [...]

“The worldwide Police tour will net the group $175 million.”
Take a moment to absorb the fact that Sting and his band mates will reap $175 million for singing a bunch of songs from the past over the course of a couple of months. Don’t you wish you had the ability to mint money like [...]

As the snow moves toward the East Coast, perhaps now would be a good time to make a nice cup of hot chocolate and listen to Byron Janis play Rachmaninoff’s 3rd Concerto, Movement 3.

A singer has an advantage when he breaks up with his lover…he gets to put those feelings of hurt into lyrics that then get broadcast around the world so everyone can share in his misery. Justin Timberlake did just this when he broke up with Britney Spears.
What’s eerie about this video is that Britney [...]
