Kelly Clarkson Working on Fifth Album!!!

During a new interview on Chicago’s KISSFM, pop/rock diva Kelly Clarkson revealed that she’s already begun working on her fifth studio album, which will be due out Fall 2010.

“We’re already working on it. [The songs] are really different. The next record is going to be really different”.

She also revealed that she may not write the whole record either, which she blames on constant touring and releasing albums so close together (Clarkson’s current tour does not wrap up until March 2010).

“If I end up liking stuff that I’ve done then I’ll include it, but if I like other stuff better I’ll use that. Sometimes you’re just more inspired I guess, and sometimes if you have records that come out really close together it might be more other peoples songs. Because there’s not enough time to write and sing and perform and do everything.”

Despite penning all the songs from her 2007 album My December, Kelly only wrote on six of the fourteen tracks from her latest effort All I Ever Wanted.

In other news, Kelly’s latest single “Already Gone” continues to rise on the Billboard charts after reaching a new peak of #17 this week. Rumour has it that “Don’t Let Me Stop You” will serve as the fourth single from All I Ever Wanted, which is now close to being certified Platinum.

Si Britney Spears a perdu quelque peu de ses talents de danseuse depuis quelques années, elle reste la reine du business.

Sacrificios Humanos en Halloween

Sacrificios Humanos en Halloween

Aunque para la mayoría la fiesta de Noche de Brujas no es más que una oportunidad para que los niños se disfracen y coman dulces a destajo, lo cierto es que este culto se remonta a milenarias prácticas de origen celta, e incluso tiene un siniestro y oscuro sello, que se relaciona con el satanismo.

Para muchos, Halloween no es más que una fiesta comercial, a través de la cual se incentiva el consumismo. Los niños se disfrazan, los papás compran dulces y durante una noche, los pequeños recorren las casas de los vecinos vestidos de brujas, monstruos, etcétera. Sin embargo, para otros esta fecha, que coincide con la víspera del Día de Todos los Santos, es el día para un oscuro ritual, que se relaciona con la práctica de misas negras, sacrificios y satanismo.

El origen de Halloween -un nombre bastante moderno, si se compara con la larga data de esta conmemoriación en la historia de la humanidad- se remonta hasta aproximadamente tres mil años atrás, en la zona que hoy conocemos como Irlanda, donde el pueblo originario de los celtas celebraba un festival de cosechas, ya que para ellos, el cambio de estaciones tenía una importancia mágica. Samhain era el festival más importante, ya que era el último día de la cosecha y el comienzo del invierno y se celebraba entre fines de octubre y a principios de noviembre.

Según las creencias celtas, en la noche del 31 de octubre las almas de los muertos regresaban a visitar hogares terrenales. Creían que durante esa noche la ventana que separaba el mundo de los vivos y el de los muertos desaparecía. Para mantener a estos espíritus contentos y alejar los malos espíritus de sus hogares, los celtas dejaban comida fuera de sus hogares.

Con el paso del tiempo, los romanos conquistaron a los celtas, y la originaria fiesta se vio influenciada por el culto a la diosa romana de la cosecha, Pamona.

Con el advenimiento del cristianismo, la festividad celta, considerada pagana y hasta demoníaca -aun cuando el concepto del diablo no existía en ese pueblo-, intentó ser reemplazada por una de carácter religioso, el Día de Todos los Santos, que se celebra el 1 de noviembre, con lo cual el 31 de octubre quedó como la víspera del Día de Todos los Santos, que en inglés se dice “all hallow’s eve”, concepto del que derivó finalmente el nombre de “Halloween”.

Año nuevo satánico

Pero no todo es fiesta, disfraces y niños pidiendo dulces. El extremo opuesto de esta celebración recae en las sectas satánicas, que ven en el día 31 de octubre como el día en que se celebra el año nuevo satánico, fecha en la cual se realizan una serie de sacrificios y misas negras.

Hace un par de años, en el 2002, una mexicana que perteneció a un grupo de satánico, señaló a un diario de su país lo peligroso que era para los niños y jóvenes salir en Halloween, ya que los grupos satánicos celebraban el año nuevo y realizaban incluso sacrificios humanos. Esa mujer, identificada como Cristina Kneer de Vidal, ex esoterista, ex satanista y espiritista de origen estadounidense, aseguró en esa oportunidad que cada 31 de octubre decenas de jóvenes y niños son sacrificados por grupos satánicos. Kneer pidió a las familias que cuiden a sus hijos. “No quiero asustar a nadie, todo el mundo es libre de creer lo que quiera, pero mis palabras deben ser tomadas en cuenta, por lo menos pido que me escuchen, razonen y decidan”, pidió la mujer.

El diario El Norte, que publicó la entrevista de Kneer, aseguró que ella pasó mucho tiempo cerca del satanismo, y conoció muchos de sus ritos. Según Kneer, el satanismo existe en todo el mundo y su práctica es tan antigua como la adoración a Jehová.

Misas negras

En fechas como Halloween, los satanistas ofrecen “misas negras”. “Las misas se ofician en el campo o en edificios cerrados, fuertemente vigilados, y se inician con la invocación de Satán que muchas veces no se presenta porque, a diferencia de Dios, no puede estar en todas partes” aseguró en dicha entrevista Kneer.

A mitad de la misa, relató, son sacrificados animales como gatos, perros y cuando la misa es muy importante, como en el día de Halloween, se realizan sacrificios humanos. La ex satanista aseguró que a las víctimas se les extraía el corazón y que este era comido entre los presentes; luego el cuerpo era cremado y echado al mar.

Según Kneer, Halloween es una de las ocho celebraciones que los satanistas conmemoran, pero que dentro de ellas, la víspera de Todos los Santos era la principal ya que se celebra el año nuevo satánico. “Es como si se celebrara el cumpleaños del Diablo”, aseguró la mujer.

Oops... they destroy my song y'all!

Probablemente esas serian la respuesta de Britney al ver esta presentacion en el programa britanico Factor X, la version inglesa de American Idol y derivados. Con esto me queda comprobado que los clasicos dificilmente se pueden volver a reacer, al menos que seas el cantante original y si no es asi se obtiene este resultado. Eso si, debo de admitir que me parecio graciosa la presentacion y que los concursantes hicieron lo que pudieron para no quedar en una version “male” de Britney, yay por Oops!… I did It Again – ñ.ñ

X Factor's Cheryl Cole says she's 'never watched Strictly', Robbie Williams was just 'nervous' and Alexandra Burke 'didn't mime'

X Factor judge Cheryl Cole has confessed she’s never watched rival show Strictly – even though she could watch it on Sky Plus after her live Saturday night stint on ITV.

The Girls Aloud star was talking live to Chris Moyles on his Radio 1 breakfast show this morning when he asked her if she ever watched the other side.

“No, because I’m on!” Cheryl claimed at first. But when Chris pointed out modern technology meant you didn’t ever have to miss any telly shows, Cheryl admitted: “I’ve never seen it, no. I know what it’s about though!”

However, Cheryl took Chris to task when he criticised the singing of one of her wannabe charges on the show, fellow Geordie Joe.

Chris said he hadn’t been convinced by his vocals when he covered Robbie Williams’ No Regrets, but Cheryl countered: “You’ve got to be joking! I didn’t want him to be like a rip-off of Robbie and instead to show what he can do with his voice.”

On Robbie’s live and rather wide-eyed live comeback on X Factor at the weekend meanwhile, Cheryl dismissed speculation that Rob was on anything and said it was just nerves.

She insisted: “This is his first thing he’s done in ages, can you imagine, your first thing coming back is X Factor. I thought he looked a bit nervous, I genuinely felt like he was thinking ‘wow, I’m back, this is it’. It must be scary, he’s been through a lot, and I honestly felt like he was nervous.”

As for her former charge Alexandra Burke’s performance on the same show however,  she defended her against accusations she was miming.

Cheryl said: “I didn’t think she was miming… It wasn’t a Britney case, definaetly not, Britney mimed to her record…I was just so caught up in the whole production and performance…… I was like having a whirl of a time that I wasn’t even thinking about is she miming or is she not, I was just thoroughly enjoying her entertainment.

She also said she was “absolutely terrified” of doing her own live performance this weekend. 

Cheryl confessed: “I’m going to have a camomile tea….the nerves started weeks ago. Oh god, it’s here, it’s really here, it’s starting on Saturday.”

“Do you know what, I love performing, but it’s like exactly what you just said, I’ve sat for weeks judging people, months, a year now, and then I’m putting myself out there to be judged. It’s a weird feeling…And I’m on my own, like I haven’t even got my cotton wool anymore.”

As well as talking about their joint effort to conquer Kilimanjaro earlier this year for Comic Relief, Cheryl also chatted about her debut solo album 3 Words, and debut solo single Fight For This Love.

She said her England footballer husband Ashley had heard all of her album and loved it.

Meanwhile, it appears that though relations are warm enough on screen, it seems there’s still no real friendship between Cheryl and fellow X Factor judge Dannii Minogue.

Talking to this week’s Star magazine, Dannii said: “I don’t have her phone number. I don’t speak to her outside of work but she’s really genuine and a nice person. She’s the person who you see on TV. I’ve got Louis’ number and Simon’s number but I also don’t see them outside of work.”

Get Your Yellow Submarine Away From Me!

So the other day I was on the T rocking out to some Lady Gaga (naturally), and I began to think about how some people just get so snobby about music preferences. Like, who cares? I don’t get why people make such a big deal about what kind of music someone enjoys. Sure, I enjoy jamming to “Gimme More” by Britney Spears, but I can also get my Radiohead on with the best of them. I don’t confine myself to one genre (love that word) and why should anyone? Why can’t I like prepackaged pop music, country, and indie rock at the same time? It really bothers me when I get verbally attacked just because of the musical selection on my iTunes. I listen to the music that makes me happy, so just chill out.

I also hate when someone stares at me with an open mouth anytime I say “I dislike The Beatles.” OMG! Seriously? I’m sorry, but I don’t get them or their music. I want to ROCK OUT, and I cannot rock out in a damn yellow submarine. I’m sorry. I just can’t. However, I’m not going to sit here and say how stupid someone is for liking The Beatles. So don’t tell me I’m disrespecting music by not LOVING The Beatles. I don’t like them, move on with your life.

Listen, I like to have a good time, and if that good time involves me feeling myself up to the Pussycat Dolls, then so be it. I don’t want to hear about it. If your good time involves feeling yourself up to Nickelback (ok, hang on a second – I can’t have anyone liking Nickelback, they’re THAT bad – no one seriously likes Nickelback, right?). Anyway, you get the picture – music snobbery is basically the most pathetic thing ever. Let people jam to the tunes they love – and leave me and Danity Kane ALONE!

In other music news, I just downloaded the new Backstreet Boys album. It’s quite amazing how these “boys” (who are all almost 40 years old now – gross) still make music. Even my 11 year old self knew the realities of boy bands in the music industry. So I’m still surprised to see them around 11 years later. In fact, I saw them live last year at Mohegan Sun and after several drinks found them to still be quite entertaining and screamed my ass off during “Backstreet’s Back.”  Although, I have changed my stance on marrying Nick Carter, since he’s dated Paris Hilton and Willa Ford (LOL); been arrested several times, lost 100 pounds (I like something to grab on to!  But not too much…), and had that reality show that proved how insane his family really is. Nooooo thank you! Take that herpes elsewhere, please. Plus, he still sounds like a 12 year old boy, which is extremely disturbing. I’ll get back to you on how the new stuff is…..once Brian recovers from Swine Flu.

de 69 a 09 com o nanana.

Em 1969, três compositores se uniram num grupo chamado Steam, cantarolaram um “na na na” no piano e a brincadeira virou um LP com o single Na Na Hey Hey Kiss Him Goodbye, que pegou o topo da Billboard naquele ano. Vendeu 6,5 milhões de cópias no começo dos anos setenta, década que a disco music cresceu, apareceu e também sumiu, deixando os 80’s pro new wave, representado por bandas como Blondie, Talking Heads, B55’s e…

Bananarama, que em 83 conseguiu um top5 no Reino Unido com o nanana. Bananarama era uma girlband inglesa que fez bastante sucesso nos anos 80, época em que era moda regravar clássicos dos anos 60/70 pra nova geração, coisa que as três fizeram com Help, dos Beatles, assim como a…

Angélica, que regravou If I Fell aqui no Brasil. A fada Bela também contribuiu com a sua versão de Na Na Hey Hey Tchau Tchau num LP de 88. A Angélica já comandou o Fama, programa de calouros aos moldes do Operação Triunfo e do American Idol, que tinha sua versão pra adolescentes, de onde saiu a…

…. Kristinia Debarge, cantora americana de 19 anos que nesse ano lançou o seu primeiro disco, Exposed. O disco tem como primeiro single a música Goodbye, que traz o nanana como sample e em parte da letra. Kristinia ficou conhecida abrindo shows da última turnê da Britney Spears. No show, Britney canta músicas do seu último disco, Circus, que tem como compositora da música Quincksand a…

Lady GaGa, que recentemente fez uma participação em Chillin, música do rapper Wale e que tem o nanana sampleado também. Wale ficou conhecido depois de gravar músicas e jogar no MySpace, sendo convidado pra um show de estréia no Highline Ballroom junto com o Mark Ronson, Kanye West e…

Jay-Z, o rapper que lançou nesse ano de 09 o single D.O.A. (Death of Auto-Tune), com um sample bem discreto de… adivinha? O nanana criado sem pretensão pelos três caras do Steam em 69.

Cover Versions

Com todo respeito com a @andreahiranaka e seu querido Music Pills, mas eu também ouço música. Ok, meu gosto é conhecidamente duvidoso, a ponto te me olharem esquisito por saber letras de coisas como Baila Comigo, Ragatanga ou Prometida. Mas ainda assim vai um post sobre covers. Sei lá eu o motivo, sai em busca deles e com a ajuda do @FilipeAugusto, selecionei umas coisinhas pra dançar na cadeira enquanto trabalha.

Cake – I Will Survive

Leighton Meester – Betty Davis Eyes

Travis – Hit Me Baby One More Time

Valeu tb @nilsonjr pelas sugestões e pelo Chico Anyyyyysio que não sai da minha cabeça =P
