...seems that words aren’t quite Merriweather’s thing, nor do they need to be. Standout track “Impossible” is proof enough that Merriweather doesn’t need to say anything particularly compelling to craft a memorable soul-pop number.

"It is not fair that the U.S.'s efforts to tackle terrorist financing have become embroiled in an argument between E.U. institutions." European and U.S. officials will almost certainly need to craft a different kind of pact now. While Washington could cut individual deals with the banking centers of Belgium, the Netherlands and Switzerland to gain access to their data, officials say a better tactic may be to try an assuage European Parliament concerns over data-protection standards and put the proposal...
