A New Mixtape
Posted on 19th Nov 09
I present to you a new mixtape. Pop Music That Changed My Life Pt. I.
Growing up, me and my sister always listened to the pop music that my parents loved, and of course the pop music of the day…
Little did I know that at 20 years old, I would have given up my life to go to a university in hopes of graduating and eventually writing for a pop music label.
Essentially, pop music is my life.
These are pop songs of my generation. Some of these songs are major top 40 singles you have probably heard, and some are songs from albums that were never actually cut as singles. Hopefully if you have not heard some of these songs, you will love them as much as I do. When I get depressed and realize that I am not going to be making any money in the near future, these are the songs that remind me why I write pop music -Why I listen to pop music - Why I love pop music.
These are songs that in my opinion were written with perfect pop songwriting craft. From ABBA to S Club 7… pop music does something to us… It’s undeniable.
These are all songs that have taught me a lot about pop songwriting and helped me to develop my own songwriting craft and become a stronger pop writer.
1. You’re My Number One - S Club 7
2. Soul Sound - Sugababes
3. Lovesong - Amiel
4. Under Attack - ABBA
5. Heartbeat - Annie (PS guys, this is one sick tune.)
6. Toxic - Britney Spears
7. Biology - Girls Aloud (I love the structure of the song. Really clever.)
8. Take My Time - Junior Senior (Ft. the B-52’s Ladies)
9. Can’t Get You Out of My Head - Kylie Minogue
10. Off and On - Calvin Harris & Roisin Murphy
11. Fascination - Alphabeat
12. Nothing’s As Good As You - Sugababes
13. I Like It Rough - Lady Gaga
14. The Road to Mandalay - Robbie Williams
Quick note : If you don’t like profanity, this mixtape does employ the use of a couple expletives. (Track 3 only… I think!?)

New Gaga Single Covers
Posted on 6th Nov 09
Is is being said that two new digital Gaga singles will be released this November before her upcoming The Fame Monster is released on the 23rd.
The second single will be announced sometime next week.
Also, last Friday Gaga announced that her video for Bad Romance would premiere on her site this upcoming week. Today is what seems to be the last day of the “upcoming week”, so maybe we can expect the video at some point today!
Congrats to Gaga
Posted on 1st Nov 09
Gaga’s single Paparazzi has supposedly hit #1 on the billboard top 40 for the week. I have yet seen this confirmed by Billboard, but a ton of sources seem to believe it is so.
So, if it is so… Congrats to the Lady.
If true, she is the first artist in music history to have 4 #1 singles from a debut record.
Is pop music surviving? Oh huh? Yeah, I think it is.
