...China's dairy-company-sponsored imitation of Idol is known--drew a TV audience of 400 million for the finale of its four-month run last year. Voting by text message, viewers chose Li Yuchun, 21, a college student who sang like a man and sometimes dressed like Mick Jagger, as their 2005 Super Girl...

...certainly couldn't have made it 10 years ago," says Murdoch. The charm of The Life Pursuit is in the unapologetic, upbeat mid-'70s influences from glam rock to MOR that frame Murdoch's often tragic vignettes. The downfall of Sukie in the Graveyard gleefully stomps along to borrowed Mick Ronson guitar and David Bowie vocals while White Collar Boy is a chain-gang romance played out to the glam swagger of T. Rex and even a hint of Marc Bolan vocals. But it's the less cool, neglected hits from the mid-'70s that most enthuse Murdoch, who still...

On Sunday, Americans will tune in to watch the Pittsburgh Steelers and Seattle Seahawks go head to head at the Super Bowl in Detroit-and Mick Jagger strut at the half-time show. But even the Rolling Stones won't be able to upstage the biggest news event of the week, when President Bush delivers his State of the Union address on Tuesday...

These disco-loving Scottish art-school punks spend much of their second album boasting of their badness. Singer Alex Kapranos is blessed with Mick Jaggeresque persuasiveness--Evil and a Heathen and I'm Your Villain would be musts on any syllabus of "Songwriting for Cads"--but he's also growing in ways that suggest depth.
