Representing Norway: Marion Raven – Here I AmThe second solo single for ex-M2M member Marion Raven, and it’s another piece of almost-brilliance. Marion worked with pop genius Max Martin on her debut solo album and was apparently the test-project for his new rockier sound, which has been a success for Kelly Clarkson, the Backstreet Boys… Continue reading International Video Challenge

I’m So Into This Groove!

I had several MSN conversations last night with people who had downloaded the new Madonna song and their opinions varied from “I’m really unsure” to “it’s terrible!”, so as you can imagine once my stupidly slow Internet finally allowed me to hear it, I approached with trepidation.
