In a surprising move during the trio’s Detroit, MI performance last night (May 9), blink-182 played a snippet of Taylor Swift‘s 6x platinum song “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together” following a performance of their own hit single, “Dammit.” The unexpected mashup is quite a tongue-in-cheek moment for the group considering guitarist Tom DeLonge’s return to the band in 2022 following his initial departure in 2015. The band’s playful rendition of “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together” showed off their willingness to poke fun at the whole situation. While vocalist Mark Hoppus takes the lead on belting out,… Read more »

The show must go on!

Canadian alt-rock unit Ragers have dropped their electro-punk new single, “Tossed Out.” Their latest effort is pulled from the four-piece’s forthcoming album, Missed Calls From Home, and follows the release of their recent single “Only Sins No Tragedies.” “Tossed Out” showcases the group’s signature blend of electronic, hip-hop, and alternative influences, while the video features stunning visuals that perfectly complement the song’s frantic energy and urgency. The new release is particularly highlighted by the chorus’ repetitive line, “I knew you would try gon toss me out,” layered over a driven beat consisting of pulsating synths and skittering percussion, with occasional… Read more »
Kelly Clarkson, the multi-talented singer, and host of The Kelly Clarkson Show, has performed a heart-wrenching rendition of Paramore’s 2009 single “The Only Exception.” Clarkson’s powerful performance on her morning segment, Kellyoke, offered a stripped-back cover of the hit single accompanied by Jaco Caraco’s delicate, acoustic strumming to create an intimate and captivating soundscape. Clarkson’s interpretation of the 2009 release demonstrated her ability to capture the essence of the song’s original format while adding her own unique twist. Her vulnerable delivery conveyed the song’s message of heartache and hope, much like Hayley Williams’ original vocal performance. Read more: Indie-Pop Band… Read more »

It makes you want to embrace life and live in the moment. The song is cheeky, flirty, and will make you feel a sense of freedom. With linear rhythmic percussion and jangly upbeat guitars you will feel like… Read more »
