We can get a taste of Yael Naim's light, pretty vocals pretty much anytime we turn on the TV these days and see that commercial for the MacBook Air, which uses Naim's sweet tune "New Soul." For those of you who want to hear more than just a 30-second snippet of the French-Israeli singer-songwriter, I highly recommend you check out her newly released (in the States, anyway) self-titled album.

I am seriously obsessed with this song. Just ask GeekSugar who informed me that "New Soul" by Yael Naim is the addictive little ditty that accompanies those Apple ads for the MacBook Air. We were practically co-authoring a dissertation together on why that is a perfect song for this product. (Don't hate us because we have fun jobs!) Oh, yeah, and check out Yael. She's adorable and you might never Read more
I have a serious weakness for a pretty, quirky folk song a la Regina Spektor. When done well, songs out of this genre can feel so light and ethereal that you want to sprout wings and fly — or, buy a new laptop.

The major networks aren't the only ones trotting out new midseason shows; Showtime is getting in on the fun with tonight's premiere of House of Lies. The 30-minute comedy has a great cast that includes Don Cheadle and Kristen Bell as slick, fast-talking management consultants. What it's about: Cheadle leads the way as Marty, who has essentially sold his soul for a fat paycheck, along with the Read more
Host Chris Harrison always promises the current season of The Bachelor will be the most exciting one yet, but if last night's premiere of Ben Flajnik's season is any indication, this may take the rose for the craziest one. While we initially thought the old lady contestant would be the newsmaker, she turned out to be the least of the dramatic moments from the night. From this first episode alone Read more
