A Few Random-ish Thoughts

…..If you want to see the most ridiculous thing you’ve probably (hopefully, anyway) seen in awhile, go to http://www.britneyspears.com - watch the tiger.

…..Have you bought the new Justin Timberlake CD - Future Sex/Love Sounds? If you only buy one CD this year, this would be the one to grab. It’s amazing, off the charts, perfect, hot - okay, insert any positive adjective you can come up with. Every single song could be a runaway hit - literally. I’d be very surprised if this one didn’t break all kinds of records.

…..Beyonce’s “Ring the Alarm” video is better than 3 of the last 4 movies I’ve seen. The directing, the acting, the music, the sets - everything’s just perfect.

….. Blue October’s “Hate Me” is one of the most haunting songs I’ve ever heard —beautifully written and flawlessly sung. I love it when artists seemingly spring out of nowhere and hit it huge. (Of course, they really didn’t come from nowhere and have been working long and hard for this.) Great, great, great song.

……I keep having to remind myself how young Rihanna is. She’s so unbelievably talented and handles herself with such maturity - and she isn’t even 20 yet. If she keeps her head on straight, her career should be one for the ages.
