English singer/songwriter Taio Cruz has premiered the video for the lead single from his third studio album, the Dr Luke produced track Hangover. The single features US rapper/singer Flo Rida.

The single has already broken into the lower regions of the US, Canadian and Australian charts.

Cruz and Dr Luke previously worked together on the track Dynamite, which hit the coveted top spot in all the big markets - the UK, US, Canada and Australia. Will Hangover achieve the same heights? What's your thoughts?

French DJ David Guetta has released the video for his hit single Where Them Girls At, which features Flo Rida and Nicki Minaj on vocals.

What a video - the clip features random people infected with what I can only assume to be Guetta Fever - a mystery dance virus spread via bubbles tainted with Guetta's uncontrollably infectious grooves. That, or they've all been infected with some crazy monkey virus and the world will end in the next 28 hours.

In other Guetta news, his latest single has been unleashed on the Australian public - the track Little Bad Girl featuring Taio Cruz and Ludacris on vocals. Both singles are lifted of Guetta's fifth studio album, Nothing But The Beat (to be released globally late August).

Whilst Jennifer Lopez enjoys the success of On The Floor as it sits pretty at #1 in over ten countries worldwide, including Australia and the UK, we're treated with a new release - her latest single, the Taio Cruz penned track, I'm Into You. Featuring Lil Wayne (ugh), the track is the third official single to be released off the Love? album which is released globally in the coming weeks.

As you may have guessed from my "ugh" comment above, the inclusion of Lil Wayne is far from necessary if you ask me. And, unfortunately I'm Into You is nothing like the RedOne produced On The Floor either. On saying that however, it's still a good tune. Locally it was released to Australian radio this week - so expect to hear more of it soon.

The video is being filmed as we speak, but for now, enjoy the audio below.

Side note: whilst the official track list for Love? is yet to be released, some of the recorded tracks floating around the 'net are written/produced by the likes of Wynter Gordon, Lady Gaga, Pharrell, Jean Baptiste, and Darkchild. OMG.

It's here!

Taio Cruz feat. Kylie Minogue, Higher, has just landed on the 'net. The video features Miss M looking sexier than ever, oozing all over the back seat of a very swish car. She looks hot in her little black number, fo' shiz. Me like!

Oh yeah, Taio is also in the clip. Yeah he looks ok.

The track has been swimming around the top 40 on the Australian iTunes chart in the last week, so expect to see it debut (hopefully) in the top 50 this coming Sunday when the ARIA charts are launched.Woo hoo!

A few posts ago (read: like 2 weeks ago) I provided some juicy little music, that of which is Higher by Taio Cruz, with added sultry vocals of none other than Miss Kylie Minogue.

The track, which will be lifted off the International Edition off The Rockstarr Collection, will be Taio's next single, and as of yesterday we were treated to a lyric video added on YouTube (below). It's just another tease if you ask me, as we know Taio & Kylie are filming the clip as we speak, according to her Twitpic (above)!

Hurry up and release it already!

Anywho, enjoy the clip. At least now you'll know all the words when it hits Aussie radio.

Well it certainly is the week for new music! Taio Cruz is about to re-release his Rokstarr album, repackaged with a lovely remix of the track Higher, featuring none other than our very own Ms Minogue.

Their version of the track was leaked online this week - a link to soundcloud below. I much prefer this version, even if they've essentially auto-tuned the hell outta Kylie's vocals. Oh well. Looking at the success that Taio has had in Australia so far with the previous singles, I'm expecting this'll be another chart smash for him.

To be honest I think we already knew that Australia seems to be mesmerised by P!nk - after launching it here on this blog, P!nk's latest single Raise Your Glass was rushed to digital media and within 24 hours of doing so, was #1 on iTunes Australia.

If the single stays at the top of the iTunes chart for another 24 hours (very, very likely), P!nk will have scored herself her fourth #1 single in Australia, knocking Rihanna from the top spot with her latest single Only Girl (In The World). Of course we'll need to wait 'til Sunday for the "official" announcement as ARIA post this weeks results on their site.

The track, which was penned by P!nk herself and pop master Max Martin (responsible for way to many pop smash hits to mention, working with artists such as Katy Perry, Ke$ha, Taio Cruz, Adam Lambert, etc) is taken from her greatest hits album to be released in Australia on November 15, titled Greatest Hits... So Far!


After chatting with MTV.com a few days ago, P!nk revealed info about the video clip, which started shooting on October 4:
"I will be celebrating a gay wedding [in the video]," she said of the clip, which she said was shooting this week. "I am not the minister. ... There's so many [celebrations]. Of course typical psychotic me, it's 80,000 different things going on."
Pink said the video's theme was inspired by real-life experience. "I threw my best friend's wedding in my backyard — [she] is gay and she married her wife, and it was absolutely beautiful," she recalled. "At the end of it, her mom said, 'Why can't this be legal?' and started crying. It was just the most heartbreaking thing I've ever seen, so that's why I'm doing it in my video. "
Well surprise, surprise. Another super star supporting gay marriage. I swear, if this country's government (ie: Gillard - yes YOU) doesn't hurry the bejesus up and move past their ignorant, Neanderthal laws... well, well... I might just burst out in song.

Back to P!nk. The video should be out in the next few weeks - stay tuned, you'll see it here first!
