What an unexpected couple! After Beyoncé featuring in Lady Gaga’s single Telephone, the two ladies duplicated the experience with the latest video release of Video Phone. The video has the unmistakable touch of famous hip hop and R&B video director Hype Williams and has become a big hit on the web, probably more because of the sexy outfits and choreos of the ladies rather than the song, which in itself seems to have received quite a lukewarm attention.

Natalie comes to life
Natalie Imbruglia, the singer we loved in the late 90’s and early 2000’s is back with a new album which is entitled Come to Life that is expected to be released by the month of May this year. Fans surely misses her and the beautiful songs she sings with an incredibly talented voice that had been absent for too long. Now she’s finally making a come back!
Coldplay has a bitter reaction to her new album though. Not that they are against her or anything but because they gave her a song which may be entitled “Scars” and they claim it’s the best song they have ever written. It could have been the best Coldplay song, they said, but because they’re no longer in cycle, they can’t sing it anymore. Coldplay said Natalie did a good job with the song and she has a very unique talent and great voice.

Eric Benet – The Hunger
Eric Benet has his way with words that even the most revolting scenes can be turned into lovely melodies that you can sing in exquisite restaurants without having all customers walk out in pure disgust. Yup, that’s Eric Benet. His talent is amazing that after all these years he still makes really beautiful songs although he is an underrated singer.
At age 42, Eric Benet has experienced a lot in his life. He lost his dad, lost his ex-girlfriend who is also the mother of his daughter. Eric also had a divorce with ex-wife Hollywood superstar Halle Berry because of his infidelity. He is a sex-addict and the song “The Hunger” will prove just that. The song is really talking about lovemaking but when you listen to it, it sounds really good but when you read the listen then, oh boy, you’d feel the heat!
