• Jessie Ware Shares Music Vid for 'You & I (Forever)' from Album 'Tough Love' [WATCH]

    English pop singer Jessie Ware has shared the music video for her latest single "You & I (Forever)," which you can check out below. The video opens with a quote — presumably by Ware — saying how the song is "celebrating the person you love being by your side," and features Ware singing the song from inside a photo booth, intercut with images of other people posing inside the booth themselves, mostly with friends and loved ones. It is quite similar to Robyn and Kindness's "Who Do You Love?" music video, only a bit grainier. You can check out Jessie Ware's "You & I (Forever)" music video here: "You & I (Forever)" is the third single to be shared from Jessie Ware's latest album "Tough Love," following "Say You Love Me" and the album's title track. "Tough Love" was released Oct. 13 and is Ware's second studio album following her 2012 debut "Devotion."

  • Sinead O'Connor Backs 'Do They Know It's Christmas?," Tells Critics to 'Shut the F--k Up'

    Last week, on Nov. 17, the latest version of Band Aid's classic charity single "Do They Know It's Christmas?" was released online to raise money for the Ebola crisis in West Africa, and though it went straight to the top of the U.K. charts and is supporting an undoubtedly good cause, the song has been the subject of plenty of criticism, particularly for its lyrics. According to two British newspapers, Emeli Sandé, who actually appears on the latest version, said the lyrics need "changing," while Lily Allen called the song "a bit smug" and said she would prefer "donating actual money." One artist who is vigorously defending the song, however, is the famously outspoken Sinead O'Connor, who also appears on the song. "I think everyone should shut the f--k up," O'Connor told "Broadsheet," via "Billboard." "If you didn't like the lyrics you shouldn't have agreed to sing the song. I think it's smug of Lily Allen to say it's smug."

  • David Guetta to Remix 'Do They Know It's Christmas?'

    After losing Disclosure's potential contribution to the project because of a miscommunication, Band Aid 30's chart-topping rework of "Do They Know It's Christmas?" will get an EDM-friendly remix from French superstar David Guetta. As has become the trend lately, your song is not entirely relevant unless dance music producers are remixing it. Disclosure was wrongly placed on the artist list, so now they must get a DJ involved, and David Guetta was the choice. Sir Bob Geldof, the man leading Band Aid 30, told Vodaphone Big Top 40 how the collaboration came together, via "Mixmag": "I was in France, I made contact with David Guetta, and he texted back after I asked if he was interested in the mix, and he said, 'Ye, why not.' So we'll have the whole dance scene covered." The ensemble of singers for Band Aid 30 includes mega-pop acts like One Direction, Ed Sheeran, Ellie Goulding, Bastille, Chris Martin, Sam Smith and a third appearance from U2 frontman Bono. Bono appeared on two previous "Do The Know It's Christmas?" versions: the original in 1984 and again in 2004. The track recently stormed to the top of the charts in the U.K. and has caused much of the same backlash as previous editions for the smugness and patronizing tone of some of its lyrics.
