WONGIE DANCE POP SONG OF THE WEEK: calvin harris feat example - we'll be coming back

calvin harris feat example - we'll be coming back
here you have it, a standard hitmaking duet (can you call it that?) by two of the biggest names in UK dance pop. crowds will go wild during the ibiza summer season and my knees will ache from all the jumping in the air. le sigh...

wretch 32 feat example - unorthodox

INDIE DANCE BITCH DANCE: skream & example - shot yourself in the foot again

skream & example - shot yourself in the foot again
[ok first of all the guy in the video is a douche, so the fact that the girl FREAKS out throughout the video makes her a douche lover. of course there's a twist, but she's still a douche lover and should really know better... oh yeah, the song is pretty cool!]

new video saturday: reverend and the makers, emily haines, timbaland, example, mark ronson feat daniel merriweather, ali love, nelly furtado, madonna

reverend and the makers - heavyweight champion of the world
[one of my favorite songs at the moment, the video is a tad old, but you can just deal!]


emily haines - doctor blind
[metric's lead singer taps into her singer songwriter roots and comes out with a melancholic and damn creepy video to boot!!]


timbaland feat keri hilson, sebastian and d.o.e. - the way i are
[there's nothing like going to a crowded place and then watching the room go a bit funky when a good song comes on. last night this song was in full effect over at my local den and damn, did the room go mad for it! thanks to ali's blog for the video tip.]


example - i don't want to
[cool fun summer song by a new uk rapper that just got playlisted on bbc radio 1]


mark ronson feat daniel merriweather - stop me (dirty south remix) (HOTT!!!!)
[this song is old news here on wongie's music world, but check out the HOT new dirty south remix and international video that was commisioned to break the US]


ali love - secret sunday lover
[with newfound exposure as the vocals on the current chemical brothers single, will this retro disco track finally be the breakout song for ali? all signs point to yes!]


sondre lerche - phantom punch
[my, how a few years can change an artist. when sondre first came onto the scene he was a cute boy that made sweet gentle retro dittys. now a few years later, he's a cute boy that's living out his retro rock god instead. no worries, it's all good.]


nelly furtado - in god's hands
[the song is pleasant, nelly looks gorgeous, but is it just me or does this sound perfect for a show like dawson's creek (if the creek was still around)?]


madonna - hey you [link 2]
[how did madonna and pharrell make one of the most boring songs of the year? ugh! just remember to make pledges to change the way you live now]
