Tired of listening the High School Musical? Try this new music sensation that somehow… will blow your mind. Atlantic Records released the soundtrack to Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist last September 23, 2008 online and in stores. Artists featured on the soundtrack to the buzzed about movie include Vampire Weekend, Band of Horses, We Are Scientists, and Devendra Banhart. Directed by Peter Sollett, Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist is based on the bestselling novel by Rachel Cohn and David Levithan. The Screen Gems movie hit the theatres on October 3 and was on the number 6 spot on the blockbuster hit. Nick (Michael Cera) frequents New York’s indie rock scene nursing a broken heart and a vague ability to play the bass. Norah (Kat Dennings) is questioning pretty much all of her assumptions about the world. They have nothing in common except for their taste in music. Their chance encounter leads to an all-night quest to find a legendary band’s secret show and ends up becoming the first date in a romance that could change both their lives.

Somehow, they rocked on the first album. I don’t know what happened. They Suddenly went “POP” as in “GAY POP”

But damn everybody loves them for it, I somehow, Don’t like them. But in the interest of the blog…

I would like to present to you Maroon 5 in it’s Pop Glory… Hahahaa!

But suprisingly they’re doing good for the fact that they won a Grammy for the album “Makes me Wonder” hrrmmm now it’s really making me start to wonder.

GRAMMY WIN!
Maroon 5 have added to their gold reserves with a Grammy win for “Best Pop Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocals” for their blockbuster hit “Makes Me Wonder.” The chart-topping single was the lead track from the band’s multiplatinum-selling new album It Won’t Be Soon Before Long, which entered Billboard’s Top 200 Albums Chart at No. 1.

I believe that the most awaited awards night is the Grammy awards. It is not only because many artists are performing during this awards night but also because many people believe that this is the most prestigious awards night in the music industry.

Anyway, in case some of you missed the show, like me, let me give you an excerpt of the winners in this year’s Grammy awards which I have researched on the internet.

•   Best Contemporary R&B Album - Beyonce

Since pop music has become a phenomenon, it is inevitable to have various awards that would recognize the talents of artists. Some of the most famous awards being given to deserving artists are the American Music Awards, MTV Music Awards, Billboard Music Awards and the most prestigious Grammy Awards. I just can imagine the joy of artists when they receive such awards. In fact being a part of the nominees is a privilege already. So just imagine the chance of grabbing the award itself from other nominees. Anyway, I believe that these artists all deserve to win because all of them work hard on perfecting their craft. And I believe that all of them give joy to their fans. I guess the greatest award that an artist can receive is to see his or her fan loving his or her music more.
