One Direction has just released their new hit single, Live While We’re Young. Their whole new album, Take Me Home, will be released on November 13, which is only 8 months after their first album, Up All Night. The song sounds similar to their others, but it has more of a camp feel to it. Speaking of a camp feel, that is exactly where the video takes place, at a camp. It talks about just doing nothing but being loud and having fun. Two of their songs, What Makes You Beautiful, and One Thing are already #1 songs, and I think that Live While We’re Young will follow in those footsteps.

Bella Stuccio 9-30-12 [|Rascal Flatts Link] [|Rascal Flats link 2] [|Rascal Flatts link 3] ==<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #333333; font-family: arial,helvetica,clean,sans-serif;">My article is about how Rascal Flatts became a band and what all the band mates thought of them together and their songs. The trio thought to always bring there A-game and how their lives were changing for the better. When their first song (Banjo) came out, the public could tell that their music was a pure joy to them. One of their songwriters, Gary, said that their lives relate to the lyrics and so do a lot of other people's. Rascal Flatts is at the core of its music career. The group has 11 songs, an extra track and 4 bonus tracks. I think that their music is very enjoyable. ==

==<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #333333; font-family: arial,helvetica,clean,sans-serif;">My favorite song is "I'm Moving On". It has a lot of violins and piano. I think that it touches a lot of peoples hearts. I think it is trying to say, "it's good to hold on, but not for too long." My 2nd favorite song is "Banjo". It has a lot of eletric guitars and of course, banjos. ==

 * Carly Rae Jepsen's "Call me maybe" **

 * [|Call me maybe song link] **


 * Canadian 26 year-old Carly Rae Jepsen sensational top hit of the summer “Call me Maybe” was at the top of the chart for 9 weeks straight. Canadian singer has been at the top and all her fans think so too the song got over 100 million plays online. The song left everyone asking for more. They got more when Carly created her first album “Kiss” shortly after “Call me Maybe”. “Kiss” is about having endless fun with no schedule except to have fun. Carly is nothing but real. She placed third on the fifth season of “Canadian Idol” <span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: 'Happy Monkey'; font-size: 21px; vertical-align: baseline;">with a steady diet of singer-songwriter fare. **


 * <span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: 'Happy Monkey'; font-size: 21px; vertical-align: baseline;">“Call Me Maybe” was originally going to be for Carly’s second album, and was not even as the first single. What the song’s trying to say is “lonely girl sings about evasive love”. I think this important because it’s her huge blowout song than life after that moving forward. It was a huge landmark in her career. **


 * Drake and Aaliyah Collaboration. **

Drake has been hinting of a collaboration with Aaliyah since March — using unheard vocals from the late singer. Following an initial celebration of the “Enough Said’s” release, fans are furious that Drake potentially dissed Chris Brown in his featured verse.

Katy Perry By Ruth Hazzard 6B Katy Perry is a pop singer and song writer. She was born on October 25th 1984. Her real name is Katheryn Elizabeth Hudson. She is from Santa Barbara, California. Since her first album, she has released two more. Before this, back in 2001, Katy Perry released an album, but it was not very successful. She released it going by the name Katy Hudson. Besides writing songs, Katy Perry was the voice of Smurfette in the movie Smurfs. She also has her own perfumes called "Purr" and "Meow". Katy Perry married Russell Brand in October of 2010. Then, later, they became officially divorced in July 2012. Her album, One of the Boys, became the 33rd best selling album worldwide in 2008. Katy Perry often writes songs that are about her real life. I like Katy Perry because her songs are catchy, fun to listen to, and make you want to sing along to them. She is so popular because sometimes the subject matter in her songs is a little risqué. Most recently she came out with a documentary. I am looking forward to seeing it!

Danny Nakamura Aaron Neville has made a new album on one of his biggest inspirations: “doo-wop”, a type of music developed by african americans,. The album is called “My true story” and features 12 songs all of which have to do with “doo-wop” There may be a part two and part three. Art,his older brother, introduced him to doo-wop. Later with his brothers Art Charles and cyril started up "the neville brothers" group. After hurricane Katrina Aaron provided lots of comfort to fans in new Orleans. Aaron has never gone back to his home in eastern new Orleans since most of the area was destroyed by Katrina. New york is Aaron's new home and is where he recorded "my true story". http://www.last.fm/music/Aaron+Neville?utm_expid=64141075-1&utm_referrer=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2Furl%3Fsa%3Dt%26rct%3Dj%26q%3Daaron%2520neville%2520songs%26source%3Dweb%26cd%3D7%26sqi%3D2%26ved%3D0CEkQFjAG%26url%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.last.fm%252Fmusic%252FAaron%252BNeville%26ei%3DPwZ2UIP4A6ay0AGC0IHYDg%26usg%3DAFQjCNEmyw8ci35pTI6WJY9EWJk98mnGzg

"Payphone" is a song made by the band Maroon 5. The song got released on April 17, 2012. <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5;"> A rap from Wiz Khalifa is added in that might result in Maroon 5 gaining a few new listeners among Wiz Khalifa fans and the vice versa, but this rap is unnecessary for the success of the song. I like this song because it's pop, and I like pop, and it is really catchy. =====

"Presley's reign lasted from the time the Hot 100 was established on August 4, 1958 through October 4, 2003, while Wayne managed to pass the king's total over 13 years and three months, with his first charting song hitting the week of July 10, 1999, when he was just 18."
