Sex and the City 2 Music: Dido's "Everything to Lose"

BuzzSugar — Mon, 10 May 2010 11:30:58 PDT

The hype for Sex and the City 2 rages on with your first peek at the film's soundtrack (due out May 25). Dido's "Everything to Lose" has a sexy and ethereal electronic sound that I think will be just perfect for the sequel's desert scenes - and perhaps, given the ominous title, we'll be seeing it pop up with Carrie's temptation with Aidan? Just a thought! Dissect it for hidden clues when you

What to Download: New Music on iTunes

BuzzSugar — Tue, 18 Nov 2008 15:30:55 PST

Tuesdays are big in entertainmentville: Not only do all the new DVD releases hit Netflix, but new music also pours into stores, including iTunes. So I take a spin through each week's iTunes music releases and pick out some albums and tracks worthy of a download. In addition to my picks below, you can also download David Cook's self-titled debut album. Here's what's on my list this week:

Queen of fierce: Beyonce's third album, out today, is actually two discs (which is somewhat meaningless to us downloaders). The first 10 songs or so are all ballads sung from the heart by Beyonce, but for the rest of the songs she morphs into an alter ego named Sasha Fierce (can you read that without giggling?) who fiercely sings some fierce dance songs. I'm already a big fan of "Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It)" and am really impressed with "Radio," which is way more techno than I'm used to Beyonce sounding. "Video Phone" is another totally unexpected track that makes the Sasha Fierce name start to make sense.

They call her mellow: The critics seem to agree, Dido's voice sure is comforting, but that doesn't mean her songs aren't totally melancholy. It's been awhile since Dido released new music, and Safe Trip Home will not disappoint folks who dig her. I'm already enjoying several tracks, including "Don't Believe in Love" because of the sad violins in the background (reminds me of Al Green's "How Can You Mend a Broken Heart") and the delicate "Look No Further."

One more pick still to come if you just

Pretty, Rosi music: So I was listening to this song, "Shine," from Rosi Golan's new album and was driving myself crazy because I knew that I'd heard it before - but where? Then it came to me: a Pantene commercial. But we won't hold that against her. If you liked Yael Naim's album, you'll probably enjoy many of Rosi's sweet little songs. I think "Hazy" is lovely and "C'est L'amour" should only be listened to with an eclair in hand.

New Dido Song: "Don't Believe in Love"

BuzzSugar — Wed, 22 Oct 2008 14:29:58 PDT

A little while ago we got a taste of Dido's upcoming album, Safe Trip Home, when she was streaming a track off it, "Look No Further." I liked that one well enough, but I'm really digging this new tune, "Don't Believe in Love." There's something sultrier, almost jazzier than what you'd expect, though Dido's light, breathy voice is still at the heart of it all. It's actually a pretty cool combo: some low bass guitar, a great drumbeat and Dido's soft, sweet vocals.

You may have noticed this song in the episode of 90210 titled "The Bubble." Safe Trip Home hits shelves Nov. 18. To check out "Don't Believe in Love" and tell me what you think,

Song of the Day: New Dido Song, "Look No Further"

BuzzSugar — Fri, 22 Aug 2008 14:30:15 PDT

Did you kinda forget about Dido like I did? Well, I was reminded of her today when I learned the following things:

She's releasing a new album this November.
A track from the new album is available for download here, and it's great.

It's been five years since Dido released her last album and I'm really excited she's still out there, making pretty music for us to enjoy. This new track, "Look No Further," is a delicate, somewhat mournful lullaby-type song about all the adventures she might have taken in life and the people she could have met.

Hurry up and grab your MP3 - as they say, they'll run out by Sept. 7. What do you think? Are you looking forward to Dido's musical return?

Songs to Listen to After a Breakup

Annie Scudder — Fri, 23 Sep 2011 04:00:14 PDT

After a breakup, there are certain single girl habits you might need to pick up again. Be it saying yes to happy hour, updating your interested-guy-radar, or rockin' some pumps on a night out. But before you get there, you have to go from grief to gratefulness that the relationship is over. Music can help that process. For National Singles Week, we asked our Facebook fans for their favorite post-breakup songs. Keep reading to see what they are.
