Jennifer reveals
plans The disclosure
was made by the singer's spokesperson after the project was leaked
on the internet. Even the first single from the album was leaked
on the internet and subseqently aired on US radio. Lopez revealed
her new album is called This Is Me...Then. For the first time she
takes a greater role in the work of her own album by writing most
of the songs. The first single
from the album is Jenny From The Block. The song was first aired
by a pop radio station in Hartford, Connecticut and then distributed
to other radio stations. The artiste
- the musician who was once known as Prince has filed a lawsuit
against a website operator. Prince has
accused Matthew Lankford of breaking the federal copyright of the
US by offering pirated recordings of his recent concerts called
Xenophobia. Lankford has
been allowing web users to download the concert recordings illegally.
Lankford has denied the charges. Prince is seeking
$150,000 compensation per song in his lawsuit. This is not the first
time the artiste has gone to court over copyright material. In 1999
he filed nine similar lawsuits. In another
internet related story, it was announced that an unreleased Nirvana
track has been played on radio in both the US and the UK following
its lead on the web. The song You
Know You're Right was regarded as a rare track recorded in 1994
before Kurt Cobain committed suicide. The song also
led to a legal battle between Courtney Love, the widow of the Nirvana
leader and the surviving members David Grohl and Kris Noroselic.
Love sued the duo for attempting to release a box set of Nirvana
which was to feature the song You Know You're Right. The case commenced
in May 2001 but it now appears to have been settled after Love recently
said she was on talking terms with both Grohl and Noroselic. A cover of
an old Beatles hit The Long And Winding Road and a cover of the
Elvis Presley hit Suspicious Minds as a double A side single has
topped the UK singles chart this week. Performing
these songs are Will Young and Gareth Gates. Young was the winner
of Pop Idol contest and Gates the runner-up. They recorded a duet
of The Long And Winding Road featured on the Beatles final album
Let It Be. The Young/Gates
rendition is a good attempt but far short of the original. The Long And
Winding Road was never released as a single in the UK but topped
the US singles chart for two weeks in June 1970. The last Beatles
cover version to top the UK chart was With A Little Help From My
Friends by Wet Wet Wet with Billy Bragg performing She's Leaving
Home with Cara Tivey as a double A side single in 1988. Meanwhile,
the last Elvis cover version to reach No: 1 in the UK was UB40's
version of Can't Help Falling In Love in 1993. Noel Gallagher
is the lead vocalist on the new Oasis single Little By Little which
debuted at No: 2 this week. All this time it was Liam who performed
the lead role on vocals. Little By Little is the hit for Oasis from
the current album. The hit follows Hindu Times a No: 1 hit and Stop
Crying Your Heart Out which peaked at No: 2. Little By Little is
the band's 16th consecutive top 10 UK hit since August 1994. Avril Lavigne, the 17-year-old Canadian song writer, singer finally crosses over to the UK chart with her global hit Complicated. She's already been compared to Alanis Morrisette and Sheryl Crow. UK top 20 |
