It seems almost everything ready for the new edition of the MTV Europe Music Awards, live on November 6 from Liverpool. First, a great novelty in ‘the presenter on line “of the show at the MTV (not the one who will lead the main show) that seems to be one of the most cruel gossipari and stralunati the world: we are talking about Perez Hilton, who would have the first task of interviewing the stars on the red carpet and then to act in the show to deliver a major prize.

But coming at things more interesting and improtanti announce that the names of candidates for the victory of “molleggianti” awards are of course many artists made in the USA and a demonstration that singers in Europe are struggling to make headway in the international scenario, even for a ceremony created to celebrate (at least the idea)

The music of the old continent. Most are appointed Alicia Keys, Britney Spears, Duffy and Leona Lewis. In short: girl power!

Duffy finally live in Italy: the artist-revelation Welsh champion of sales for the debut album Rockferry both in Europe and the United States, will perform the next November 13 to Rolling Stone Milan to the delight of many fans nostrani that already expected by June. Last month it was anticipated a show then cancelled.

With a press release the company Independent it announces the recovery in the same location, the famous Milanese club, and also confirms the price of tickets (20 euro + advance) available on circuits as usual TicketOne, Viva Ticket and BoxOffice Italy.

Those who have the coupon in June and we do not have asked for a refund at the time of course can use it to the event in November.

If you have learned to love the voice of Duffy but the refrain of “Mercy” begins to indisporvi (always happens with tormentoni, in the long run…) will be pleased to discover who was shot and released new video of Welsh singer “Warwick Avenue” . The single, taken from ‘bestselling album “Rockferry”, is already available in major shops online in digital format and will be proposed even in more traditional CD and vinyl Monday May 26.

The images of clips that you can look at the top are the most simple and essential as possible: you see her on the seat of a car in motion, which sings of a love finished and leaves go all’emozione. Perhaps it is even better this way, can enjoy the song without distractions. “Warwick Avenue” is one of my favorite tracks the album, I was caught at first listening and I did not hesitate to call it a pearl in the review I wrote some time ago. You do you think?

The army all the female artiste British sferrano assault on the American record market has found in Duffy a new general. The album “Rockferry” the young Welsh made his debut in the ranking Billboard Top 200 to a more than flattering number 4, selling 71,000 copies in 7 days. Only two thousand copies of the position 3, as we shall see. Thanks to this performance Duffy joins the exclusive club formed by Amy Winehouse, Leona Lewis and Natasha Bedingfield, who found fame and success overseas.

The podium of the league sees weekly at the command Death Cab For Cutie with “Narrow Stairs,” which has sold 144,000 copies. At number two a collection (yet) successes of Frank Sinatra, with 99,000 copies. Bronze Medal finally Jason Mraz at 73,000.

The second half of the top-ten houses the noble lapsed have dictated that law enforcement in the past week: Leona Lewis is at number 5, Mariah Carey to 6. Madonna has embarked on a slow but inexorable descent, and this week “Hard Candy” is all square ‘Eighth position.

If Lewis for the decline is physiological, due to the already long stay at the top (we are to 6 weeks) as well as for Carey (5 weeks), the situation of Madonna is more problematic and be analyzed. For an album so much discussed and publicized, spasmodicamente expected by fans and media worldwide, the eighth to square the third week of publication appears frankly below expectations.

There is therefore paying the choice of Madge of americanizzare the most of the sounds of the disc to break the hearts of his fellow citizens? Not just have to wait to find out.
