Single Minded: Robyn, Portishead, The Roots and More

Robyn, “Who’s That Girl” [Full Album Stream] The new Madonna record is also out today, but we figure you know a lot about that already. Instead, try this track from Robyn, who’s referred to as the Madonna of Sweden. Coincidentally, this track is called “Who’s That Girl.” Can a mock crucifixion on a particleboard, assemble-it-yourself cross and a starring role in Desperately Seeking Sven be far behind? Portishead, “Machine Gun” [MySpace] The title does not deceive: Portishead’s return is angry, threatening and violent, full of tight bursts of sound and long, terrified wails. “Machine Gun” is theoretically the album’s single, but if there’s a radio station that will play this, please send us the call letters immediately Robert Forster, “Pandanus” [Yep Roc] Two years after the death of his songwriting partner Grant McLennan, one half of the greatest band that ever was returns with a bright, hopeful solo record that honors the memory of his friend. Estelle, “American Boy” [Live on Letterman] We’re cheating with this one, but only because this live version is so good. Breathless and soulful and speedy, it would be played at every wedding in the country, if wedding DJs all simultaneously got struck by a giant cinder block and realized that KC & the Sunshine Band are terrible and that nobody, nobody likes doing the macarena. The Roots, “Rising Up” [Official Site] On this cut from the excellent-as-usual new Roots record, Chrisette Michelle complains, “The radio’s been playing the same song all day long.” If only that song was this one, she’d have nothing to complain about.

Alexandria Detention Center inmates forge a bond to sing songs of Christmas

It's a bothersome Christmas song for a prisoner. All that crooning about troubles being miles away. The troubles are everywhere in this room, between the windowless cinder-block walls and under the large, boxy security camera perched near the high ceiling.

Busty Heart's Got Six-Pack-Flattening, 48-Double-G Talent [Dept Of Violent Jugs]

America's Got Talent last night featured the truly unique talents of a one Miss Busty Heart—a beloved mainstay on the stripper circuit for decades now, according to her must-visit website—whose act consists of slamming the two bean-bag chairs hanging from her chest onto a variety of rigid objects, thusly inflicting unspeakable damage. In doing so, she managed to shock the studio audiences—including Jerry Springer, who you'd figure would have seen an act like this by now. It was all fun and games until she insisted on outdoing herself with a grand finale the judges wouldn't soon forget; unfortunately, she had never tested the "railroad spike through a cinder block" trick before, resulting in an instant gusher that coated the horrified studio audience in a fine misting of 22-year-old silicone filler. Watch her uncensored act after the jump! America's Got Talent [NBC]BustyHeart.com

An Earth Overun By Killing Machines And Hurtling Towards The Sun Not As Sci-Fi As You Think! [Dept Of Life Imitating Bay]

A peek inside the "Hollywood Science Fiction or Grim Glimpse At Our Own, Apocalyptic Future?" file today reveals two exciting, end-of-the- world-hastening news items seemingly plucked from the stack of scripts on Michael Bay's nightstand: · Scientists have finally nailed how and when the world will end: "The sun will slowly expand into a red giant, pushing the Earth farther out into space, but not far enough." The good news is that that is almost 8 billion years away. The bad news is that all life on Earth will have been extinguished long before that, as "the slowly expanding sun boils off the oceans and reduces our planet to an uninhabitable cinder." [Fox News] · According to an article headlined, "Automated killer robots 'threat to humanity,'" A.I. expert Prof. Noel Sharkey says that robot killing machines currently employed by the military "pose a threat to humanity." They can "already identify and lock onto targets without human help," and might "one day unleash a robot arms race." Luckily, the introduction of the reprogrammed-for-good Tween-2000 Jailbait Killing machine model, eerily predicted by a Fox science fiction series way back in the early 2000s, will help to defend humanity against this seemingly unwinnable robot war.
