...Morrison sing-speaks quiet, descending lines about a woman’s poorly concealed emotional turmoil upon seeing her ex: “She knows he’s coming, it’s really all right / Nobody here could know how she feels.” Then the chorus: “If she spins fast enough then maybe the broken pieces of her heart will stay together / But ain’t no gyroscope can spin forever, yeah.” Morrison’s vocal lines are still descending, but they become a melodic yell...

...Exposed butt cheeks. Fishnet stockings. Stiletto pumps. Pole dancing. Have I gotten your attention? Or, rather, did Britney Spears get your attention with her recent video “Gimme More?” Even if she did, it’s likely she lost it after the first chorus of her mind-numbing drivel. The antidote: the recently-released video “Teddy Picker” by British indie rockers the Arctic Monkeys. In this video, from their second album “Favourite Worst Nightmare,” the band expresses their utter disdain for the contemporary...

...When the violence does finally manage to bump the on-field highlights off the front page, a chorus of shock and outrage inevitably follows. But on and off the field, this is a country with a gift for creating dust storms that are bound to change nothing once the proverbial dust has settled.

After the death, there was much talk of applying the same techniques that the English...

...good was Barack Obama's speech at the Iowa Democratic Party Jefferson Jackson dinner Saturday night? Long after the event ended, as a scrum of giddy Obama staffers were all-but-forcibly exited from the bar of the Fort Des Moines Hotel, they struck up a spontaneous chorus of the campaign's newly debuted catchphrase: "Fired up!" Beat. "Ready to go!" Beat "Fired up!" Beat. "Ready to go!" This slightly manic release of tension and elation wasn't surprising. What was surprising was the person leading it: John Edwards campaign manager Joe Trippi, who punctuated each explosive slogan with...

...listener back to the 70s with a Marvin Gaye sample. “No Hook,” the fifth track on the album, touches on common Jay-Z themes such as his rough childhood, but the track is stripped-down and raw. True to title, it lacks a chorus. The following song, “Roc Boys (And the Winner Is...),” fulfills Jigga’s penchant for incorporating at least one triumphal track (regal, blaring trumpets included) into every album. Following these songs, things die down for a bit. Jay-Z makes a stab...
