Have you heard Lohan’s version of Stevie Nicks’ “Edge of Seventeen” yet…?
It’s probably best that you haven’t…though, if you happen to live in Japan (and if you do, konichiwa!), you’re getting ready to hear it all the time, now that it’s being released as Lindsay’s next single.

Neil Young has never been one to keep his mouth shut when he sees something that displeases him, be it political (“Ohio”) or corporate (“This Note’s For You”). His forthcoming album, Living with War, which debuts in digital format on May 2 and on CD soon thereafter, is an entire record dedicated to the current state of the world. And we have a link to audio streams of the entire album.

I might have overrated the source album for this song (A Woman & A Man) when it first came out in 1996, but can you blame me…? Belinda – the second cutest Go-Go (because Jane Wiedlin will always have my heart) – hadn’t put out an album in three years, and her previous outing…Real…hadn’t been the most consistent of her solo works; in fact, it was such a commercial bomb that it ended up being her one and only release on Virgin.
A Woman & A Man was such a creative success, however, that it was easy to get swept up in it and…cough, cough…put it in your top 10 of the year; unfortunately, while the best tracks were released as singles in both the UK and Australia, the album came out in the States on Miles Copeland’s label, Ark 21, and died a quick death…so much so that, if we were fortunate enouh to get any singles in the US, I have absolutely no idea what they were! If we had, however, my picks would’ve been a tie between “Always Breaking My Heart,” written by Per Gessle from Roxette (who proves here that he can write a power pop song that can kick your ass), and this one.
“California” features Brian Wilson on very obvious (and very perfect) doo-wop styled backing vocals, as well as one of the great opening couplets of all time: “I remember I was in the tanning salon / When I heard that River Phoenix was gone.” I once read the track described as a cross between “California Dreaming” and X’s “Los Angeles,” and that’s not a bad comparison. Check it out; it’s on iTunes, or you can sample it via RealAudio here.
I heard this tune recently during a commercial on HBO advertising their original programming. It’s soulful, moody electronica, guest starring Sia and her considerable vocals. If you liked “Breathe Me,” you’ll probably dig this one as well.
Listen to a sound clip here.
You think he’s big now? Wait until the album comes out next Tuesday.
Daniel Powter and his eponymous debut have been beating artists like red-headed stepchildren on iTunes, and now get this: His single “Bad Day,” which is still only available via download, just hit Number One. And get this: there are some songs on the album that are even better. (My favorite is “Suspect,” which sounds like AC/DC’s Brian Johnson doing a dance track.)
You can’t stop him; you can only hope to contain him.
