But I suppose it might be quite favourable for my beloved Same Difference. If only Alcazar were more famous and they could do This Is The World We Live In. I also hope that one of Dannii’s contestants will follow Swedish cutie Mattias and sing This Is It. Speaking of Swedish Idol, I’m sad to… Continue reading Disco weeks are never a good idea

So maybe pigs can fly?
A highly unexpected event just occured. A Fergie song just came on the radio, and I actually turned it up. There are few singers I hate as much as Fergie, but unlike P!nk and Kelly Clarkson, until now she had never done anything I even slightly enjoyed. Then I heard Clumsy, and in the interest… Continue reading So maybe pigs can fly?
New Pop On The Block
Cascada – What Hurts The Most (Listen)I don’t know if this is their new single in the UK but it is here in Sweden and before you ask, yes it is a Jo O’Meara cover. Well, OK, maybe the intention was Rascal Flatts, but if I remember correctly, Jo did release it several months before… Continue reading New Pop On The Block
The Next Big Thing?
MorelloAs far as I can tell, Morello is mainly a guy called Malcolm, and I have to say he’s the first cool Malcolm I’ve ever encountered. I was first intrigued by hearing he had a song called Exchange Student, since I am one at the moment, but I found the rest of the songs on… Continue reading The Next Big Thing?
Reality Round-Up
Idol 2007I have finally caught up to date with the Swedish Idol programme, and am enjoying the show very much. My Swedish is improving but I still can’t understand very much of what is said (they speak fast!), so it’s interesting to watch a show and simply judge the singers for myself rather than being… Continue reading Reality Round-Up

NO WAY!
Bleeding Love is written by Jesse McCartney? JESSE MCCARTNEY??? He has never even had a good song by himself – how did he manage to write one as amazing as this for someone else? It is a complete mystery. He was in Dream Street, for goodness sake. I am entirely in shock! In related news,… Continue reading NO WAY!
Ch-ch-changes
I was just catching up on the state of the UK charts, and noticed quite an interesting pattern. Since downloads have been included in the charts, they had become quite strange and indecipherable – it was impossible to know, when a new song entered the charts at 30, for example, if it was going to… Continue reading Ch-ch-changes
The Next Big Thing?
Blake LewisHe and his great pal Chris (combined they were known, quite brilliantly, as Cake) were my definite favourites on American Idol this year, although I also loved the eventual winner, Jordin. In fact, it was surely the most satisfying final 5 on any reality show, since I supported all of them and hated none.… Continue reading The Next Big Thing?
The winner of X Factor 2007 is found!
Of course they were already my personal favourites, but this week’s performance sealed the deal: justice will only be served if Same Difference win the X Factor! I never dared to dream that someone would sing High School Musical on ‘songs from the movies’ night, so I was extraordinarily excited when not only did someone… Continue reading The winner of X Factor 2007 is found!
