International Video Challenge

Representing Germany: Queensberry – I Can’t Stop FeelingAs winners of the latest German version of Popstars, this time creating a girl group, there is plenty of buzz around them at the moment, but they’re naturally going to need to release some great singles to make sure that their success continues. The most successful acts from… Continue reading International Video Challenge

Got a question for Dr Pop?

I am currently putting together a special new project… well, I say new, but actually it’s a revival of an old one. My long-term readers will remember that I have previously put together 2 pop zines, called Poptastisk (Swedish for poptastic). Since it is one of my life aims (along with being head of Eurovision… Continue reading Got a question for Dr Pop?

Now I definitely need a new name for this blog

A crappy new girlgroup have announced that they have created a new genre called Dirty Pop. Erm, excuse me, but you are forgetting that the almighty *N Sync invented that genre 8 YEARS AGO! Very new indeed.

I love Ola, but…

his performance (click fler klipp on the left to see it) at Swedish award show Rockbjörnen (“the rock bear” – no, I don’t know why it’s called that!) the other day was terrible.

I thought he was really good, so I went to his MySpace when I got home. The first song, Great… Continue reading Brighton’s Got Talent

Hilarious news about The Script

Two of the members used to be in MyTown! I wonder if anyone remembers MyTown except for me? These days it sounds more like a social network than a boyband. This is what they used to look like: This was one of their videos: [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BG3SUHO2_Tc&hl=en&fs=1] I’m sure they’d disagree, but I think it’s miles better… Continue reading Hilarious news about The Script

New Pop on the Block

Kelly Clarkson – My Life Would Suck Without You (Listen)This single has been greatly anticipated, which is good cos it’s by Dr Luke, but not so good cos he gave it to Kelly Clarkson. After her ungrateful eschewing of all things ace and Swedish on her third album (obviously not realising they were the only… Continue reading New Pop on the Block
