Soundaholic Presents

To be honest I'm not really motiveated to post anything on music because there isn't anything good being released lately, unless you count the shizzle that I'm too lazy to hear yet. I don't know how Trent manages to update his blog everyday about celebrity gossip, but I suppose it's because it's bringing him the big bucks. Anyway, there's still music to be introduced.



Justin Timberlake - Lovestoned
It's getting confusing for everyone because it seems that this track is the fifth single to be released as a single from his hugely successful sophomore album Futuresex/Lovesounds. Sexyback, My Love, What Goes Around (Comes Around) were the first three. Then Summer Love got released onto US radio, but despite the long wait, there has been no video for it. All of a sudden, the video for Lovestoned was released this week, with news that it will be the next single in the UK. Lovestoned is one of my personal favourites partly because of how the song evolves from something groovy and nasty to something trippy. I was really excited to watch the video because the original track's too damn long, and I wanted to know how much of the track they'd keep intact! Thankfully, most of it's still in there! The video's pretty simple and you can view it here.



Sophie Ellis Baxtor - Me and My Imagination
On the first listen, it sounds like a track that'd be really suitable for a circus act. On a second listen, the track is unable to save itself. It's harmless, pleasant to listen to but therein lies its fault. What happened to the spirit of the insistent one-track-mind that was her previous single, Catch You? It's about as cheesy as Take Me Home, minus all the cool. She's going to have a big trouble with her comeback if she's releasing such singles. The break didn't do her good, and if her next single's going to be this crap, make no mistake, it'll probably be the last you'll hear of SEB.



LFO - Summer Girls
There's no third new song this week because I'm keeping the good stuff for next week! Nah, I just couldn't find anything worth introducing. Maybe you guys can give me a tip or two? Point me in the right direction? In the meantime, it's Summer so what better way then to take a listen to LFO sing about Summer Girls, NKOTB and Chinese food that makes them sick? It was also creditted to making giving A&F a boost in sales due to the lyrics about them liking summer girls wearing Abercrombie and Fitch. The song was their third single and was nominated for Billboard Music Award for Top Selling Single of the Year in 1999. It's certainly a song that brings back some pretty good memories, so take a listen to it here.
