tues tunes – REM & Dolly Parton!




REM – around the sun

oh mr stipe and the gang are back! and im actually loving this latest album – especially the first single leaving new york – this album is kinda a toss back to some of their earlier work – and michael stipe has still got it – he has always been such a music legend – i love him! and hes cute! so be sure to head over to their site – and get a listen of the new album! and i belive the boys will be going on tour as well…remhq.com



leaving new york

…I looked ahead

I’m sure I saw you there


you don’t need me

to tell you now

that nothing can compare


you might have laughed if I told you

you might have hidden a frown.

you might have succeeded in changing me

I might have been turned around.


it’s easier to leave

than to be left behind

leaving was never my proud.

leaving new york, never easy.

I saw the light fading out…




Dolly Parton – live and well
thank heaven for dolly – i swear she is the best – her voice is like a warm toasty southern blanket you could wrap yourself in for days! in addition to this 2 cd set – she also released a live DVD of the concert – thats what popbytes picked up! she does all her greatest hits as some of her more recent work from her latest forays into bluegrass style! i live for jolene though – along with coat of many colors – and she looks great too – sure a bit of nip/tuck here and there but she is still as graceful and as sweet as ever! and she is coming to southern california in december – and guess who will be there??? duh – popbytes! check out dolly’s label at sugarhillrecords.com


ok much love and more laters…oh and madonna was gracious enough to offer up her english estate to newlyweds britney and kevin – they can go sip tea and crumpets while madonna reads a childrens book about kabballah – should be a real hoot – not!
