HELLO. Apologies for lack of posting here recently – I’ve been a bit too busy of late to fit in much of this. Anyway, just for the records, here’s a selection of some of my favourite videos from in and around May 2011. Posting on here will still be relatively infrequent for the next few [...]

Sometimes I skip over these big event videos – I’m rarely quick enough on the draw to have a post up before there are 5000 others doing the same. But hey, what is this thing for if not for rambling on about amazing pop videos? Admittedly, this isn’t Gaga’s finest hour – either musically or [...]
Listen: Lady Gaga – Born This Way (Twin Shadow Remix) [MP3]

Lady Gaga – Born This Way (Twin Shadow Remix) Second great remix of the year by Twin Shadow, following his excellent take on Oh Land’s White Nights. Once again, it keeps the best bits of the original intact (the melody, the general sense of celebration), but replaces a relatively conventional backing track with something quirky [...]
Video: Lady Gaga – Born This Way
Posted: 28th February 2011 by instanthits in VideosTags: lady gaga
SO I suppose there’s no harm in adding to the flood of rubbish that will no doubt be written about this. First, the song: It’s been around a while now, so a few thoughts. I didn’t like it much at all at first. It’s now grown on me as a pop song, but still feels [...]
New Lady Gaga track!!!1!11! Born This Way premieres. True fact.
Posted: 19th January 2011 by instanthits in ReleasesTags: amazing blog action, lady gaga
OK, so I didn’t entirely lie in the title. This is (apparently) a remix of “Born This Way”, premiered at a Thierry Mugler show in Paris. What can we deduce from this? 1. Pretty much nothing 2. We can’t hear it 3. People are whooping, but that’s probably for the fashion. WHHOOOP! 4. What little [...]
So, there we all were, thinking we’d had enough of Lady Gaga for 2009. There’s that brilliant Kid Sister single out there that thoroughly out-Gagas 2009 Gaga. Enough already. No need. And then this arrives. Riding a massive glittery phallus from the future. It’s hard to remember the last time a single simultaneously made you [...]
Pet Shop Boys, Lady GaGa, Frankmusik: new vids, essentially

Hallo there blog, I’ve been neglecting you again, ain’t I? Anyway, there are vids and things to catch up on. Probably the most pleasing thing I’ve heard recently is the beautifully synthy new Yeah Yeah Yeahs track Zero. It’s a beast of a track – a grower, and most certainly best appreciated LOUD. Do you [...]
New Year, New Format, BBC Sound of 2009, Passion Pit, and the like
Posted: 12th January 2009 by MV in ReleasesTags: bbc sound of 2009, empire of the sun, i monster, lady gaga, passion pit, the rakes, tilly and the wall, upcoming singles
A new year, a new format. A new bandwagon to jump on. While my (ahem) comprehensive single review style was a fun experiment for a year (and I even saw it through!), it’s time to move on. I was too tied to outdated physical single release schedules, and ended up reviewing songs after they’d been [...]
