I just know this is somehow linked to recent high gas prices

Word on the street is that Michael Jackson is recording his new album in Bahrain.

You know, I am about as sick of hearing about ol’ Wacko Jacko working on new material as I am of hearing Axl Rose make assurances that Chinese Democracy is coming out soon. He STILL hasn’t put out that damned Hurricane Katrina relief single; judging by the state of his finances, by the time it comes out, New Orleans will say, “Hey, Mike, why don’t you keep the proceeds? Looks like you need it more than we do.”

Daniel Powter attempts to hide his self absorption

Daniel Powter, singer of “Bad Day”, claims “famous people suck.” That’s right, this dude, whom I had no knowledge of until finding this article JUST NOW is shooting himself in his (possibly) famous foot.

“Believe it or not, it’s difficult to be that self-absorbed. Connecting with the audience is a bigger thrill,” says Powter.

Correct me if I’m wrong but isn’t saying this kind of crap when you’re some kind of “rock star” so past the point of irony that it’s beyond reeking of shit? Powter probably also drives around in a car with one of those “Kill Your Television” bumperstickers.

Oh, OK this dude is just some wussy Canadian artist. According to a review on Amazon,

“Daniel Powter’s songs are awsome. I love listening to them on my way to classes in the mornings. I have heard “Bad Day” played at the end credits of American Idol. I think this is were most people have heard this song. I heard it on there and really liked “Bad Day”. So, I looked up who the singer was and bought the CD! The other song are good also!”

WOW! I’ll go right out and not buy this guy’s crap immediately!

It’s been a long time / Now they’re / Coming back home

The Beatles’ official publicist, Neil Aspinall, has revealed that the Fab Four’s back catalog is being digitally remastered, so that it can be all nice and sparkly for online downloading.

That’s right, Tommy Lee Jones’s character in “Men in Black” is going to have to buy “The White Album” AGAIN…but, hopefully, it’ll sound better. But, really, just how much better can it sound before it gets tweaked so much that it’s barely the same material the Beatles recorded in the first place…?
