Blame it on the po-po-po-po-po-po-po-po-pop
I am a sucker for music mixes. Something about DJ’s juxtaposing various hits into one coherent song is just amazing. DJ Earworm, in his “United States of Pop 2009” mixed the top 25 songs of 2009 into one song and here is the catch. He did it well. So, I am putting this mix into the category of you must take a listen even if you do not like the songs. This is because of the sheer awesomeness of mashups. Take a listen.
Oh American Idol. Each year you exhaust the talent of the United States but always seem to come back with more of a punch. If you like the show you are addicted. Something about bad auditions, success stories, and good singers draws you in. If you dislike the show it is the scum of the television world. The single reason why Fox stinks (well, I can think of a few more reasons). Yet, one thing everyone can agree on is that, no matter what the case, the show is quite successful and always draws a lot of viewers and votes each year. And, apparently it will be on the screens of millions of viewers for some more years. How does the 2014 winner sound to you. Better yet, there may even be an American version of the British show X-Factor hitting the fox airwaves soon. More on this and the fortunate case of Simon Cowell in the Rolling Stone article.
