Death can do quite a number on a pop song. Pop lyrics are usually just convenient rhymes, but the demise of their author inspires many listeners to riffle through the back catalog in search of foreshadowing--the spookier the better.

...places to start. Shop by category: there's gardening, decorating, even "homekeeping" (stylish supplies for laundry and other chores). WILLIAMSSONOMA.COM lures you with attractive cookware, kitchen tools and appliances alongside seasonal recipes.

His band Joujouka's new single Invade, featuring Kyono, the lead singer for the popular metal band The Mad Capsule Markets, is a clubland smash. (The band also scored the PlayStation 2 shooter game, Rez.) With a catalog of over 20 albums and mix CDs, Tsuyoshi, whose return to Tokyo in 2000 triggered a nationwide trance boom, is that peculiar millennial superstar: the bankable DJ. Last month, he even launched his own Tokio Drome clothing line (named after his monthly Tokyo parties...
