Just call me Paula

So I thought I would try to continue to deliver the goods in the form of FREE music...well GOOD free music that is! Since you can find just about anything on the web these days, I'll do my best to find you the keepers. I'll do the dirty work and be your unemployed Paula Abdul...judging the tunes before I tell you where you can get them.

Speaking of Paula, I totally miss her on Idol. Ellen is just not going the trick! And don't get me started on Kara! Sadly, this will probably be my last year watching Idol. Next year without Simon, it's going to be baaad. This year's talent isn't very good anyway or even memorable.

Rumours of Paula are floating around for her return to TV...from the US version of X-Factor to a re-vamp of Star Search to the next season of SYTYCD...we'll see if any pan out! Paula, where are you? We miss your crazy yet heartfelt comments!

Seven free songs every week is going to be kinda hard so I'll try my best every week to at least find a few. I have couple ditties I enjoyed this week, some free and some not. Here they are:

Monday - "Rocket" (Richard X One Zero Remix) - Goldfrapp - Get excited, their new album is out this week and it's going to be hot! I have previewed some of the songs on Itunes and they are great! Head First is released this week! This first single remix I found on amazon.com for free. Here is the link:

Tuesday - "One in a Lifetime" - Monica - Ok, ya'll know I'm not a huge R&B fan, but I thought some of my readers might like it, so thought I'd cater to ya. Actually, the only song I really liked from Monica was that duet with Brandy from 4ever ago. Although slightly depressing and uplifting at the same time, this song has grown on me. Her new album Still Standing is out this week too. Here is the free link for a limited time!

Wednesday - "Animal" - Neon Trees - I have told you before about the free weekly tune on Itunes every week. Sometimes they are great and sometime they suck! This weeks is good. Keep in mind they change every Tuesday, so you only have today to get this song. Just go to the free section on Itunes near the bottom of the homepage. This band hales from Utah and the single is off their debut Habits album released last week. I'll check out the rest and report back but I do love this single!





Thursday - "Take Control" - Julissa Veloz - I WISH this song was free but it was only $1.99 on Itunes for 3 versions and let me tell you, they are HOT. I can see this being that summer anthem especially in the clubs! I don't remember her but apparently she was nicknamed "Tiara girl" from her American Idol auditions from Season 8. She didn't make it past Hollywood week.







Friday - "All This Time" - OneRepublic - I slow it down a bit with this selection. This song is so pretty and I'm totally obsessed. Not to be super cheesy, but this song would be perfect for a wedding. In true Paula fashion, I would totally be balling at this selection. This is off their new album Waking Up which is really good. Pick it up if you haven't yet, I like it better than their





first!Saturday -"The Journey" - Dolores O'Riordan - I used to have a cranberries obsession and not just for my vodka:) Back in the 90's, The Cranberries were one of my favorite bands! Did you know Dolores has released two solo albums? This is off her second one No Baggage released last year. This is a perfect song for a long run or at least for me it is. I really like these motivating songs for my runs.






Sunday - "Tea Party" - Kerli - This is off the Almost Alice soundtrack, and is another great song by this Estonian Princess. Look for her new album this spring!
