When culture pops, we wipe it up ...

I'm sitting in the Baltimore airport waiting to board my plane home to New York. Through the window the world is rather gray. Overcast and dreary. Perfect hoodie weather. I keep watching everyone walk by, hoping it will be John Waters. No such luck, but I keep imagining everyone as characters from his movies. There are no Divines or Ricki Lakes walking around, just the humdrum of ordinary folks in ordinary clothes. The suburban life that John MORE
By now, Gotye's "Somebody That I Used To Know" and Carly Rae Jepsen's "Call Me Maybe" have been played so many times that you can write the melodies and lyrics to both songs backwards on a whim. And now adorably twee cover group Pomplamoose went ahead and mashed them up together into one song called "Do Not Push", and ... well, that's it. We've reached the pinnacle. Let's all move onto a new song now before this gets any more tedious. MORE
The new music video for Kanye West's collaboration with every rapper ever, Mercy, has finally hit the web, and it's pretty good. The song is great, and the video is stylized and well put together. And you'll also notice: no lasers or business cards. We wouldn't want anyone to be fatally injured, would we? MORE
The music video for Coldplay's Princess of China hit the web over the weekend, and as you would expect from a video that features both Chris Martin and Rihanna, it's okay safeness with a decent soundtrack. I mean granted, neither of them are known for being particularly daring, but chances are if I went up to you and said "direct Princess of China in your head," chances are the first things that popped in their would be "kung fu movie homage". Or MORE
I can't even begin to talk about the sheer musical brilliance of Marina and the Diamonds! She's just the most amazing thing ever, you must watch her new music video for "Power & Control," the second single off Electra Heart! That album has already secured the top spot for my favorite albums of 2012 list, it's that good! Also make sure to check out Marina's debut The Family Jewels, which is just as stellar! MORE
Have you listened to Adam Lambert's new album Trespassing (his second studio release) yet?! It's truly fantastic, plus he recently made music history by being the first openly gay performer to have a number one album! I've been a huge fan of his ever since he appeared on American Idol, I knew he would have an amazing career, this album is definitely proof of that! Check out Adam's newly released music video for Never Close Our Eyes, one of my MORE
I am not going to lie, I heard Faye's (aka Fanny Hamlin) Water Against The Rocks for the first time on Friday and it's been playing on a near constant loop in my apartment for the past weekend. The music video was just released yesterday, which means we can now all enjoy it. It's an absolutely stunning song, but be warned: if you click play, you will never get it out of your head, just so you know! MORE
Please just stop everything you are doing right now and watch this brand new music video from Kylie Minogue for her latest track Timebomb which dropped earlier today. Not only does she look completely amazing, this song is incredible. What a nice unexpected treat from one of my favorite ladies of pop. Kylie Timebomb is available on iTunes now. Click here to buy. Directed & Edited by Christian Larson MORE
Ingrid Michaelson has been happily skipping along the border between indie and mainstream for a while now, and her new music video for Blood Brothers does a pretty good job of really straddling that line. In the video, a team of hair and makeup geniuses turn her into Marilyn Monroe, John Lennon, Lady Gaga, Gene Simmons, Amy Winehouse, Beyoncé and David Bowie. It's kind of cool, really, and the song is cheerful and pretty, just like Ingrid! MORE
If you haven't bought Sleigh Bells' album Reign of Terror yet, please do because it's so damn sweet. They've finally released a music video the standout track, Demons, it's way cool. That being said, they really need to make one for End of the Line because it's by far the best song of the year! MORE
Hey hey! Here's a new lyric music video from Katy Perry for her latest track Wide Awake (written for her upcoming 3D film Katy Perry: Part Of Me) that appears on the special edition release, Teenage Dream: The Complete Confection. I actually love this track, and this video is quite clever using Katy's Facebook timeline to showcase the lyrics. I still remember when I couldn't stand her one bit, and now I would call myself a fan, not her hugest fan MORE
If you haven't heard of Kreayshawn yet ... meh. I really have no strong feelings either way. Her first single Gucci Gucci was bizarre enough that it crossed over into being awesome, but after a while, it seemed like she was succeeding in spite of herself. Case in point: her new single, Breakfast (Syrup) (featuring 2 Chainz). Don't get me wrong, it's decent, but for the all the accolades she received off of Gucci, I wanted more than something that MORE
Earlier today, Feist dropped a new music video for my favorite song off of Metals called Cicadas and Gulls, which true to the song's nature, is pretty stripped down, as she plays on a street at night with a crowd behind her along with some vocalists backing her up. Also, there's two guys who sort of dance in front of her the entire time. Which seems a bit ... off. If this were the dubstep remix, I guess this would make more sense. Hmmmmm ... MORE
Earlier this year, we got Mirror, Mirror, the version of Snow White where Julia Roberts tried, and failed, to carry an English accent for an entire movie. If that's just not your cup of tea (or you're not eight-years-old), then maybe the darker Snow White and the Huntsman (in theaters on June 1st) with Charlize Theron and Kristen Stewart is more your thing. And if you're still not convinced, Florence + The Machine have a tie-in single called MORE
