Billboard Reviews Celine Dion "Alone"

This is "Taking Chances"? With an adventurous, even daring array of triumphant tracks on Celine Dion's new album, Sony couldn't play it safer than second single choice of a cover of Heart's "Alone." Dion's performance is ever-exceptional—she delivers formidable drama sans bombast—but radio hardly needs a new version of a consummate song that still plays well as catalog (46 AC outlets recently gave it spins). More important, how does this show the singer has spread her wings stylistically—the calling card of the project? Dion's most dedicated followers were polled on celinedionforum.com and 20% agreed that "Fade Away" casts the ideal mix of reinvention and commercial appeal; they're right. "Alone" came in ninth. If those most invested in Dion's success believe the choice off-base, then what's the potential to kindle "Alone" beyond the disappointing No. 6 peak of previous single "Taking Chances"? —Chuck Taylor

Leona Lewis Tops U.S. Album Chart With "Spirit"

Leona Lewis made dance music history on Wednesday by becoming the first U.K. solo female artist to top the American album chart. Her latest success comes just weeks after scoring the #1 hit Stateside with "Bleeding Love".

Few music industry insiders are surprised by the success of Lewis' CD "Sprirt". Her mentor is American Idol's Simon Cowell and she is signed to industry legend Clive Davis' J. Records. Davis previously guided Whitney Houston to chart domination and international stardom.

"Spirit" was the fastest selling debut album of all time in the UK and sold more than two million copies within weeks. Her single "Bleeding Love" has been at hit in 10 countries and was the biggest-selling single of 2007 in the UK, staying at the top spot for seven weeks and selling more than one million copies.

Janet Jackson Wants Her Some "Luv"

"LUV(MP3)" is the latest single from dance music artist Janet Jackson's CD Discipline(MP3). It follows "Feedback" and "Rock With U" as the third American single.

Reviews for "Luv" have been mixed at best. One reviewer called the Darkchild produced track "an instant club banger". A UK reviewer was less kind stating that the song "finds the veteran songstress spouting cringe-worthy chat up lines over trashy re-hashed '90s beats".

"Luv":


No commercially released remixes of "Luv" have been announced. The original version of the song peaked at #34 on the U.S. R&B chart. The label is reportedly prepping "Can't B Good(MP3)" as a fourth single for June release.

From the "OMG" File: Dance Diva Wannabe "Dale Bozzio"

We almost feel bad writing this but it's just so AWFUL we can't resist. Former Playboy bunny Dale Bozzio first had success in the early Eighties with her band "Missing Persons".

"Missing Persons'" CD Spring Session M spawned the radio and MTV hits "Words, "Windows", "Destination Unknown", and "Walking in LA" (later covered by Traci Lords). The band released a couple of other CDs, one in 1984 and the other in 1986, and then broke up.

"Words"


Things went quiet for Bozzio until 2000 when she resurfaced on the CD "Vigin Voices: A Tribute to Madonna". Her cover of the classic dance music hit is so bad, it has to be heard (here) to be believed.

Bozzio next surfaced on the American TV Show "Hit Me Baby One More Time". Looking shell shocked and sounding weak of voice, she performed her hit "Words" and a cover of Kylie Minogue's "Can't Get You Out of My Head" to mostly disastrous reviews.

Dale released a new solo CD in 2007 titled "New Wave Sessions" with covers and remixes of Eighties New Wave hits. In March, 2008, she released a Live "Missing Persons" CD that is essentially a greatest hits set.

Timbaland Assists Ashlee Simpson on "Bittersweet World".

On her upcoming CD Bittersweet World(MP3), due on April 22, Ashlee Simpson worked with dance music hitmaker Timbaland to add some groove to her pop/rock CD. Timbaland worked his magic on three cuts: "Murder," the Pat Benatar-like fist-pumper "Rule Breaker" and the manic "Outta My Head (Ay Ya Ya)."

So far the set has spawned two singles. "Outta My Head (Ay Ya Ya)" was released in late 2007 and Little Miss Obsessive dropped in March.

"Outta My Head" (Remix):


"La La"(Sharp Remix):


Bittersweet World(MP3) is Simpson's third CD. Her debut CD "Autobiography" was a triple platinum seller in 2004. Her 2005 CD "I Am Me" was certified platinum.

Mariah Carey Hits Big With "E=MC2"

Mariah Carey's new dance music CD "E=MC2" hit store shelves this week and sold an astounding 154,000 copies it's first day of release. These numbers would be impressive in any climate but they are doubly so in the depressed CD market of 2008.

The lead single "Touch My Body" has already hit #1 on the mainstream U.S. Chart. The remixes (Touch My Body (Remixes) MP3)meanwhile are ascending the Billboard club chart.



At least three more singles are planned for E=MC²(MP3), "I Stay in Love", "I'm That Chick" and "Bye Bye". Carey performed "Bye Bye", a song she wrote for her late Father, during a well publicized appearance this week on American Idol.

Dance Music Classic CD: Donna Summer "Bad Girls"

In spring 1979, it was so easy to tag Donna Summer: her upcoming album "Bad Girls" (CDMP3) was bound to be sexy, pulsating, naughty, beat driven hot - everything you'd want from a dance music record. But, as with every other truism, the real life details do this artist a little more justice.

With five essential albums released in just the two years following her 1975 breathrough, Summer was the biggest star ever launched from the club underground. Her first worldwide hit "Love to Love You Baby" sparked countless fantasies and the precedent-shattering mid-1977 release "I Feel Love" was applauded universally as a tecnological and musical breakthrough.

The following year, two crucial pop songs rocketed Donna Summer directly into the mainstream. "Last Dance," written for Summer's supporting role in the film Thank God It's Friday, hit the Top 5 in late Spring. The magnificent elaboration of Jimmy Web's cantata "MacArthur Park" followed, being Summer's first Number One single in the Fall, driving Live and More, Summer's first Number One album. And, by then, her trademark wasn't a wispy coo, but a voice of knockout power, gem-like clarity, and laser-like pitch.

In fact, after this three year run, this artist was just about to score her biggest hits yet. And Summer was doing plenty of the heavy lifting herself, right alongside her celebrated producers and writing partners, Giorgio Moroder and Pete Bellotte. The busiest cowriter on Bad Girls is Donna herself, with five co-writes and three songs solely written by her.

The entirety of Bad Girls sets a standard of consistency that has rarely been matched since, and it's diversity underscores Summer's undeniable influence on every young div-ette who followed, whether from R&B, pop, country or dance. "Dim All the Lights" and "On My Honor" both have country elements that foreshadow Summer's later settling in Nashville. And just as much as "Journey to the Center of Your Heart" and "All Through the Night" feel like the singles that the label never got to, Bad Girls' electronic medley - "Our Love", "Lucky" and "Sunset People" - could have easily have anchored a second album itself.

It was apparent, the week of Bad Girls release that it was one of the great dance music CDs of all time - a perfect play. And in retrospect, it is definitive in it's production style, it's vision of a truly global dance music, and it's kaleidoscopic expression of a woman's outspoken, daring, emotional and observant sides. What was the savviest, most apt reflection of 1979 continues to be an essential expression of the present time, and the forseeable future.

Dance Music Comeback Diva: Robyn

Swedish pop singer Robyn was last heard from in the United States in the Nineties. Back then, she scored two big dance music hits: "Do You Know (What It Takes)" and "Show Me Love".

In the later part of 2007, early 2008, she resurfaced in a big way with a new cd titled Robyn. The lead single "With Every Heartbeat" went to #1 in Britain and garnered the artist some press interest Stateside.

Then the remixes of "With Every Heartbeat - with Kleerup (Tong & Spoon Wonderland Remix)" began their climb on the Billboard Dance Club/Play Chart. They peaked at #5 and heralded the singer's return after a ten year U.S. drought.

Her followup track "Handle Me"is already rising up the U.S. dance chart. There is talk that "Cobrastyle" will be remixed and released to build on the momentum.

IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN A HIT: Kim Wilde "Loved"

Kim Wilde made quite a splash when her debut single "Kids in America" hit in 1981. The track went top ten in the UK, Europe and Australia and peaked at #25 in America.

Although she continued to chart in many international territories, she wouldn't have another hit in America until 1987. The Supremes' cover "You Keep Me Hangin' On" was an international smash that took Wilde to the coveted #1 spot in the United States. She was the last U.K. solo female artist to acheive that benchmark until Leona Lewis released "Bleeding Love" in 2008.

In 2001, Kim recorded a new track called Lovedthat was written by the "Kids in America" songwriters for a compilation CD. Although the song garned some club play in the U.S. it failed to break through and become a bonfide hit.

Dance Music Classic: Shannon "Let the Music Play"

"Let the Music Play" by Shannon became a Top Ten hit in the United States at the same time as "Holiday" by Madonna. The two tracks made music history by redefining the dance music sound for the 1980s.

The original version of "Let the Music Play" peaked at #8 on the mainstream Hot 100. It went all the way to #1, however, on the Billboard Dance Club/Play Chart.

The single was most prominently covered in 1996 by U.K. artist Mary Kiani. Kiani took the track to #19 on Britain's singles chart.

In 2000, Shannon re-recorded the track for her "Best is Yet to Come" CD. She released remixes that year by Junior Vasquez and Plasmic Honey on a collection called "The Lost Remixes", which also included DJ mixes of "Give Me Tonight".

Dance Divas on TV: Kimberley Locke on Don't Forget the Lyrics

Still riding high on the dance chart success of her Freda Payne cover "Band of Gold (Almighty)", Kimberley Locke is poised to try her luck for charity on FOX TVs hit "Don't forget the Lyrics". Locke taped her episode in January and it will air this Thursday, April 17.

Kimberley's latest CD is "Based on a True Story". So far that set has spawned three singles "Band of Gold", "Changes" and "Fall".

In their review, Billboard called "Fall"..."a stunning showcase for the versatile vocalist, as she delivers...her most satisfying single yet—complete with production and melody bells and whistles that will leave listeners swaying as Locke serenades, "Go and fall apart, fall into these arms of mine, I'll catch you everytime."

Songs We'd Like to Hear Remixed: Amber "Sacrificial Lamb"

Dance music artist Amber is one of clubland's most popular dance divas. She's had a string of top club hits, including "Sexual (Li Da Di)", "If You Could Read My Mind" and "Yes". Her latest hit is a remake of her debut single "This is Your Night 2008".

In 2004, Amber released her Pop/Rock CD "My Kind of World" which spawned the dance club hits "You Move Me", "Voodoo" and "Just Like That". Album track "Sacrificial Lamb" emerged as a fan favorite and was "picked" by many critics as the most commercial track on the CD.

Amber was encouraged to release the track as a single but she declined stating that the "tempo" was wrong for a remix. Ever the stubborn fans, we still think that it's nothing that a talented remix artist can't handle and if worse came to worse, she could re-record the track.

We think that a re-recorded and remixed "Sacrificial Lamb" could be Amber's biggest hit EVER! Com'on Amber, give us a Remix!

Billboard Review: "Mariah Carey E=MC2"

She's proclaimed emancipation before, but Mariah Carey's never sounded as free as she does on her 10th dance music album. The usual hummable radio hip-hop and bold ballads are here, in pristine form. ("Bye Bye," a memorial for a lost loved one, is particularly effective.) But so are some coy surprises, like the irresistible "I'm That Chick" (which covertly samples "Off the Wall" for an early Michael Jackson disco bounce) and the Swizz Beatz-produced "O.O.C.," which is catchy enough to make that the vernacular's standard abbreviation for "out of control." Carey even digs deep and pulls up "Side Effects," a Scott Storch-produced, dark hip-hop track that follows a passive woman's descent into domestic abuse ("Sleeping with the enemy/ Aware that he was smothering every last part of me"). Capping it off with Bible-quoting, upright-piano gospel ("I Wish You Well"), Carey's made a pop album with equal parts levity and gravity. —Kerri Mason

Alanis Morissette Returns With "Underneath"

Her last big single was the Seal cover "Crazy". On that track, Alanis Morissette reached out to dance fans with some great club remixes.

Her brand new single is "Underneath" from her forthcoming CD "Flavors of Entanglement". No word yet on whether there will be dance club remixes or who will be the remix artists. But given the success of "Crazy", it is inevitable that "Underneath" will get the dance floor treatment.

Morissette worked with Guys Sigsworth on the new CD. Sigsworth has previously written hits for Seal, Bjork, Robyn, Madonna, Britney Spears, and many others.

Blender Reviews Madonna, Kylie, Mariah and Robyn

We are generally not huge fans of Blender Magazine and their virtual zero coverage of dance music. In this month's issue however, they do redeem themselves somewhat by reviewing the latest CDs from some of our favorite Dance Divas: Madonna "Hard Candy", Kylie Minogue "X", Mariah Carey "E=MC2" and Robyn "Robyn".



The review of Madonna's "Hard Candy" reveals that five songs were produced by Timbaland and four of these, including lead single "4 Minutes", feature Justin Timberlake. Of that track, Blender say: "It's pure grimy escape, a marching band R&B banger about grasping every chance to sweat it out on the dance floor before life passes by". The CD rates 4 stars and other recommended dance downloads are: "Give It 2 Me" and "Devil Wouldn't Recognize You".



Blender is less hot on "Kylie Minogue X" which they rate 2 stars. The reviewer states: "Kylie has never parlayed her string of delicious pop hits into steady album business, and the search for the perfect stand-alone song leaves her tenth album a ragbag of unrelated ideas." Recommended MP3s: "WOW", "Like a Drug", "All I See".



Mariah Carey's "E=MC2" fares better" "[This dance music CD] is Carey's is most fun album, and her best. Not coincidentally, it's also her most propulsive, with strong contributions from A-list producers including Jermaine Dupri, SwizzBeatz, Stargate, Tricky Stewart..." not to mention Timbaland protege Danjahandz. Recommended dance downloads: "Touch My Body", "Migrate", "Last Kiss".



And finally "the CD [that Blender] is totally gay for", "Robyn". This "self titled, self labeled return is heartsick and pissed off, with freezy electro beats and a poison purr light on sex kitten and heavy on avenging angel you can dance to. The hooks come off-kilter and killer..." Recommended music downloads: "With Every Heartbeat","Handle Me", and "Cobrastyle".

New Madonna Single "4 Minutes" Sets the World Aflame

The international response to the latest Madonna single "4 Minutes" featuring Justin Timberlake and Timbaland has been phenomenal. The single shot to the top of the iTunes chart after the Video had it's world premiere on the digital downloads site on April 3rd. It is already Top 3 on the European Charts, Top Ten around the world and it is the fatest selling single in Canadian chart history.

The video was shot in London by French directors Jonas and Francois and features appearances by Timberlake and Timbaland. It is already featured on the front page of MTV's TRL webpage where it is poised to enter the Top Ten any day now.



Madonna's official website is confirming the news that broke a couple of weeks back that "4 Minutes" will be featured in the new Maxwell Smart film "Get Smart". The movie starring Steve Carell and Anne Hathaway will hit theatres in May.

Songs We'd Like to Hear Remixed: Carrie Underwood "Before He Cheats"

Carrie Underwood's performance of "Before He Cheats" at the Granmmy Awards back in January was one of the sexiest showings by a female solo artist in recent memory. This Shania-esque pop arrangement is the version of the track that we'd most like to hear remixed.

Underwood wouldn't be the first country artist to get a dance music makeover. Several years back Trisha Yearwood's song "You're Where I Belong" was remixed by Soul Solution for the dance clubs.

Leann Rimes also took a dance/pop detour in the early part of this decade and has continued to release dance club remixes. Her tracks "How Do I Live", "Can't Fight the Moonlight", "Soon" and "Nothing Better to Do" have all received the dance floor treatment.
