Little Bad Girl (feat Taoi Cruz and Ludacris)- Here is where, Guetta endangers his pop credentials in pursuit of the beat. Actually two beats. One the normal dance beat we know and love, the other a synth rhythm ehich sometimes joins it and is sometines in counterpoint to it. Impressive but not populist.
Beneath The Five – Evaline – At some point, techno and rock is going to merge completely. And these guys sound ready on this computer generated hard rock rave up.
The Drug In Me Is You – Falling In Reverse – Standard issue consumer rock.
Why Did We Have To Part – Marianne Faithful – The glorious results of a mispent youth -a folkie melody with Faithful's husky vocal.
Charlene II – Stephen Colrbert and The Black belles – This joke isn't funny any more. Colbert has an intensely irritating voice.
I'm An American – Billy Ray Cyrus – What do you do when you've finished pimping your daughter out for years. You record this clap trap. Makes Tobey Keith sound like Brad Paisley.
Robot – 3!Oh3 -Is that the bloke from odd Future?
Here For A Good Time – George Strait – SHould be heading straight to the top of the country charts, a soft shoe honky tonky hit. TRACK OF THE WEEK.
Scarlett Town – Gillian Welch – Now this is REALLY folk. Mandolin is nice, voice is tender, song not so much.
Fade Into Me – David cook – American Idol guy gets ballady a la Daughtry.
