HA HA @ this. Some New York billionaire supposedly donated the rest.

Christina is a FLOP and Pink has just DESTROYED her and taken her spot as the talented one (besides Beyonce). You bitter Christina stans need to get over it. Fading interest? Er is that why she's at #1 this week? To compare, Britney only had 1 #1 song until Womanizer... even now she only has 3. Were you guys saying SHE was a flop when you noticed Womanizer going to #1 too? And she'd already sold nearly 100 million records in 10 years before Circus came out.

I don't speak Hebrew and I forgot how to read it.

I'm here And thank you. http://c2429732.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/72850

It's too bad the album is so shitty next to Miseducation and Under Construction.

She looks really good... from afar. Up close

Taylor, SuBo and Rihanna are still owning! What's up with Katy's random surge? And I am so shocked and happy for Mariah. I thought it would drop like a rock; I guess the holiday season is actually working and it will go Gold after all.

Feedback?!

Röyksopp - This Must Be It

I like this. The beat is way more interesting than Airplanes/LTWYL. Alex Da Kid did good. Christina is trying for that Sarah McLachlan sound in the intro. Very pretty.

It's because of Rene. Ugh.

ONLY those 3?

Janet Lauryn Hill But there are some that are very close, such as: Madonna Michael Jackson Aimee Mann Robyn Lily Allen (I don't have her debut in full ) Air

By virtue of being from the '80s, his stuff doesn't sound like it could be released today, production-wise. But I'm talking about melodies and hooks and universal appeal. And I'm also talking about how his production sounds WAY better than that of other '80s pop stars. The arrangement, though, is what is timeless. Don't look at the music in such a shallow way.

Why u mad tho

I came into this thread thinking that he wasn't, but I've changed my mind. In my opinion, anybody who can write as many memorable, timeless, catchy, elegant, pleasing melodies and hooks as he did is a genius. He is a pop music genius. His shit songs would be amazing for other people. I'm not a stan--my love for him isn't in the same galaxy as my love for Janet--but I always enjoy hearing him in my headphones. I like all of his albums. His singles are mind-numbing in their sheer excellence. There have been very few people to be as consistent as he was, ever. He didn't grow very much, but that's not necessary for genius. The greatest of the greats usually fell off after their peaks too... nobody can get better forever. (See Prince.) His genius is in itself his pop sensibility. That extends to his vocals too. The way he wrapped his voice around a song was beautiful. Edit for adds. I was going to add something before I read up and noticed that Austin basically hit it. What I'M saying is that there is no measure of genius. That was the point in writing that growth isn't necessary for musical genius. In music, you can be a genius in many ways. You don't have to be all-encompassing.

Gets the gays excited

I think so. I'm a virgin but I'm young. I'm not gonna be a whore, but I'm gonna be passionate in my love-making. How Janet would want it.

Bich You know how it was a top 5 hit in Canada? I was on a California teen tour with a bunch of Canadian kids in 2008, and we were at some dance on one of the last nights, so I requested that the DJ play "Feedback." Everyone went NUTS. That's really why I posted it.

She's so much fun.

He looks like he's having so much fun.

I wish they would stop acting like a #1 song on iTunes Videos is a #1 hit. It gives me secondhand embarrassment.
