...example, lead single “I’ll Be Waiting,” in which Kravitz sings while playing the same three piano chords over and over. The verses are sappy, uninspiring, and sure to appear on many 14-year-old girls’ MySpace pages. The chorus, however, is the worst part. The lyrics are shamelessly lifted, almost word for word, from The Spinners’ seminal 1972 love song “I’ll Be Around.” (“Whenever you call me, I’ll be waiting / Whenever...

Onstage, she's known to favor poodle skirts. It's an aesthetic that takes some getting used...
...appalling that TIME joined the chorus of Israel bashers with Hamad's "Postcard: Bethlehem." Christians, Palestinians and Israelis worked hard to make this the best Christmas for Bethlehem in many years. Security precautions were relaxed. Shops and hotels were full of joyous pilgrims. But unscrupulous partisan journalists buried this good news. Waiting for an hour at a Bethlehem security checkpoint is preferable to being blown to bits by bombers. The situation is not the fault of Israel. Ami Isseroff, REHOVOT, ISRAEL...
