...ready to relinquish her crown. She even goes after her co-writer’s sound on “Miles Away,” the song that chronicles a couple’s attempt to stay together even with an ocean between them. With its dreamy chorus and hooks aplenty, it’s an overt attempt to mimic JT’s “What Comes Around…Goes Around;” but in the end, it’s better...

...City Pressure” is a fine example of production value adding to the humor of the song. A mock lament of rough and tumble city life, the track gets to the point where you can almost see Bret’s solemn expression mouthing the words to the chorus. “Boom,” a song that wasn’t really all that funny on the show, is buoyed considerably by bringing the beat into the foreground, making far more noticeable the dancehall-reggae caricature intended by the instrumentals. “A Kiss...

I answer, a day that reveals to him, more than all other days in the year, the gross injustice and cruelty to which he is the constant victim."

On Sunday the African Union joined the chorus of calls for the immediate release of poll results. Former United Nations Secretary General Kofi Annan also weighed in, calling on African leaders to find a solution to the situation, which he called "a serious crisis with impact beyond Zimbabwe." But leaders of the Southern African Development Community (SADC) kept noticeably quiet on Zimbabwe at a summit on poverty and development being held in Mauritius - except to ask South African President Thabo Mbeki to continue...

...baroque.But make no mistake—it’s the beauty that stands out here. “Highway of Endless Dreams” builds steadily upward from a tantalizing guitar progression into an electronic sea that swirls with waves of radio noise and a computer-processed chorus. On “Graveyard Girl,” Gonzales resurrects the perfect moment of the music he reveres. The choruses are so sublimely immersed in living sonics—and balanced ingeniously against verses with little more than drums and vocals—that the transitions between...
