"You Make Me Want to Be a Man" is the 4th single from the Exodus album by Utada. The video for this single features a CG android replica of Utada. It was released only in the UK on October 19th 2005.

Not much a big fan of this song though. But the remixes are decent enough. Enjoy!!! =)

Amerie - Why R U

Jun 4th, 2009; 1:27 pm (GMT+8) 1


Amerie's new lead single for her upcoming album. There are rumors that Amerie will be dropped from her record label soon. Hopefully her latest album will sell like hot cakes so Def Jam will keep her around. I prefer her anyday rather than that Rihanna.

Her songs always have that 80s feel. This song is no exception. But it doesnt seem very lead single material. Hope it will do welll. *Fingers crossed*

"Devil Inside" is Utada's 2nd English single. It is the second single from Exodus, and the first physical single in the US. Though it received little mainstream attention, "Devil Inside" did do well on dance charts and hit number 1 on the Billboard Hot Dance Airplay chart. The single was released on September 14th 2004.

The single's cover art looks cool, like straight up from an anime. My pick would be the Scumfrog Vocal Mix, it's the usual club mix length. =)

Jessica Jarrell is a new artist who is ONLY 14 years old. ONLY! MY GOD! anyways, this track is probably going to be her single to introduce herself to the world. I prefer her remixes to the original track. That's what happens when u get big big remixes... haha!

Here's another music act to look out for. If you've been following our weekly UK chart updates, they have their 2nd single, "In For The Kill", peaked at number 2. Now on for some brief info about them.

La Roux are a British electropop synth duo band made up of singer and synth player Elly Jackson, and co-writer co-producer Ben Langmaid, Their music is largely influenced by 1980s synth pop including Eurythmics, Depeche Mode, The Human League and Prince.

As for the origin of the group name, Elly claims to have found a book of baby names in a bin and within the book was there's a name La Roux, French for "red-haired one" (although the actual French would be "La Rousse").

Signed with major record label, Polydor, they are set to release La Roux's debut album in June 2009. But their first single, Quicksand, was released by the Kitsuné Music record label in November 2008.

La Roux's second single "In for the Kill" was released on 16 March 2009. Debuted at number 11 in the UK Singles Chart on 22 March 2009, which would eventually peaked at number 2.

La Roux were the supporting act on Lily Allen's UK tour in March 2009 and obtained the fifth position on the BBC's Sound of 2009 poll, amongst critics and the like.

Their genre of music is Electropop and Sythpop, which I really adore loads. I didn't really get on the hype of "In for the Kill", but their 3rd single changed my mind. "Bulletproof" is the third single by pop duo La Roux from their upcoming debut self-titled album and the song is to be digitally and physically released on June 15 2009. Love the video too. It's very artsy. I'm sure Bulletproof would do well as the followup. It's electropop/sythpop madness!!! My kinda stuff. =)

Both the Foamo and Zinc remix are the bomb. The Tepr mix is not bad, sounds like a dub with only the use of the chorus. Enjoy!!!
