HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DAVID BOWIE. OH, AND THANKS FOR THE NEW MUSIC!!

Music legend and all around cool guy David Bowie is 66 today. WHAT? 66? Yes, 66. Ziggy Stardust is getting up there in years, but he is still on top of his game, as evidenced by this lovely, melancholy, Beatles-esque track, Where Are We Now? The Thin White Duke is still cutting an attractive frame as well. From his earliest recording in the late '60s through today, Bowie has changed and evolved and kept us interested in a way few artists had done before him. He ushered in the '70s Glam Rock era, popped the top of the pop charts in the '80s, dabbled in electronica, with a little help from Nine Inch Nails (sigh), in the '90s. From the sound of his new single, David is feeling nostalgic these days. The new album, The Next Day, will be released in March. Sit back, relax and enjoy Bowie's birthday present and some classic tracks on this, his 66th birthday. Now let's dance.

AWESOME VIDEO/PROMO FOR THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO: TRENT REZNOR AND KAREN O

Karen O of the Yeah Yeah Yeah's lends vocals to Trent Reznor's AMAZY cover of Led Zeppelin's Immigrant Song and apparently, a la the Bond movies, it will have its own little video (this one) at the beginning of the film and serve as the opening credits. But you can watch it now because I like you so much (and because it showed up online). I must say, this is kick ass cover, but I can't make head-nor-tails out of this video. Visually stunning though! Watch and decide.

TRENT REZNOR AND KAREN O COVER LED ZEPPELIN

If you have seen the uber-amazy trailer for the US version of the film The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo you may have noticed a new version of a very familiar song. Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails and Karen O of the Yeah Yeah Yeah's have done a super-dark, industrial cover of Led Zeppelin's 1970 song Immigrant Song. Both the film and the song look and sound fantastic!!! Watch the very exciting clip for the "feel bad movie of Christmas", The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo. Hot!
