It’s been a really short while since they released the first trilogy album (‘Uno!’), and Green Day are already at it again. This comes in the aftermath of lead singer Billie Joe Armstrong entering rehab after his recent onstage tirade, something which led to several canceled concerts. [You can listen to the album here] If I could sum the album in just one sentence, I’d say it goes forward by going back. Not quite as…
Source. The wedding dress Poor Amy Winehouse (I just can’t believe how many things happen in Amy’s “absence”), some burglars have broken into her former home, in Camden-North London, and stolen two dresses worth £130,000: one of them is her wedding dress, worn by her at her Miami marriage in 2006, and the other one she wore during a performance on Later… with Jools Holland later, same year. Since Amy is…
Source No, Amy Winehouse did not raise from dead. We’ve all heard about the legends about how Tupac hasn’t really died, and that he is hiding somewhere and he’s still releasing new songs and albums – or Elvis, which some of his fans still believe in a come back and just can’t get used with the idea of his death, and the list goes on but this is not our case…
After the timely death in July last year, Amy Winehouse became much more popular than she was in the lifetime. It was like a boom – everybody was listening to Amy Winehouse, everybody was buying her albums and so on. I am not saying that she wasn’t a good singer, but you cannot not admit that her songs became much more popular after her death. Source In a recent interview for…
UPDATE: September 14, 2011: According to her family, no illegal substances were found in Winehouse’s body after the toxicology report. At just 27 years of age, Amy Winehouse, the soulful singer/songwriter who brought you such hits as “Rehab” and “You Know I’m No Good”, was found dead this morning of a (not yet confirmed) drug overdose at her home in London. For a long while, Winehouse had noticeably been fighting an intense battle with hard…

Steve Jobs’ iTunes is undoubtedly the world’s largest online music retail store and as physical records have long ago been outsourced, in terms of sales, by downloads we can safely say that the iTunes charts are a measure to test a band’s mainstream popularity. Let’s take in example the latest end of the year charts from Apple, that have surfaced recently; namely the “best selling albums of the year” and the “best selling singles.”Apparently [tag]Maroon…
Under the stray of drugs, booze, suicide attempts and God knows what other regretful acts the young miss Winehouse has underwent, some of us were more then tempted to forget about her wonderful singing talents. We all want a comeback and I feel like she wants it to, especially by releasing her latest single and accompanying video for “Love Is A Losing Game,” one of the most touching and beautiful songs from Back to Black….
The biggest thing here is Kanye West with no less than 8 categories. Other nominees include Amy Winehouse with 6 as well as Foo Fighters, Jay-Z, Timbaland, Justin Timberlake and T-Pain with 5. This is a bit surprising because this release of the Foo Fighters was a bit weaker than their previous work but they were accepted a bit better by the critics than a part of their fans which claim that they were a…
