		<description><![CDATA[If I could hand out album of the year award, I would seriously consider Jewel&#8217;s &#8220;Sweet and Wild&#8221; as one of the nominees.  That is based on the 8,000 songs I have downloaded over one year (thank you Nokia).  If you have heard Jewel singing live &#8211; which I did when I was working in [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If you stop for a moment and ponder why one would buy into Kylie&#8217;s music, I reckon that has to do with the overall branding than the creativity and the technical execution of her music.  Using the image of the goddess of love, beauty, and sexuality &#8211; Aphrodite &#8211; as the title of her 11th [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Alison Sudol, the songwriter singer and self-taught pianist of A Fine Frenzy, has a lot to go for.  She is young and beautiful and her indie music style is genuine, personal, and is indeed a breath of fresh air in today&#8217;s commercial music scene.  It is rare to find an artist who sounds as good [...]]]></description>

Some of you may remember her as the girl who promoted Chanel&#8217;s fragrant Coco back in 1991. I certain remember her by her single &#8220;Joe le taxi&#8221; (1987) when she [...]]]></description>

Countless disappointment and I was about to give Duran Duran&#8217;s &#8220;Red Carpet Massacre&#8221; a miss.
