Coldplay set up shop at UCLA last week and performed a myriad of their hit songs including “Fix You” and “Viva La Vida”, plus a tribute to Amy Winehouse. Among the 90-minute set were also a couple of new tracks from their upcoming fifth studio album: the previously released single “Every Teardrop is a Waterfall” and a brand new one, “Charlie Brown.” The new track is a sweeping, atmospheric anthem that only Coldplay could do right. Watch the live performance above, and pop after the break for a bonus video. Continue reading Coldplay performs new song “Charlie Brown” at UCLA concert

Music video: Rihanna – “Disturbia” (live performance)
Check out this live performance of Rihanna’s “Disturbia.” It was recorded for AOL Sessions. It’s worth a listen because Rihanna puts a different spin on the song; it’s slower and softer than the original rendition. And I like it.

Lady Gaga performs live at Marc Jacobs event; Heartbeats give-away details, too
Gaga’s performance, which involves only her voice and a piano, is actually quite good.
Remember the announcement of the new Heartbeats by Lady Gaga headphones I reported on last week? Well, if you were at all intrigued by the new headphones in the Dr. Dre Beats lineup, be sure to check out the Heartbeats Daily Giveaway on Facebook. “To celebrate the launch [of Heartbeats], Beats by Dr. Dre is giving away a pair of Heartbeats every day for 30 days, so enter..for your chance to win.” Good luck, ladies (and guys, I guess).
Thanks, Aaron.
Kid Cudi – Man on the Moon: The End of Day drops tomorrow
If nothing has enticed you yet to pick up Cudi’s freshman album tomorrow, this will. Kid Cudi recently performed “Pursuit of Happiness,” the third single off his new album, live on Letterman. Those of you who are sick of his most popular single Day ‘N Nite please watch this and understand the scope of Cudi’s fresh and energetic talent. The way he commands the stage reveals a less edgy and more smooth vision of hip hop (or rap). And for you rockers out there, there is a sweet guitar solo by featured guest Ratatat. It’s really a great song, and I am sure such new and inventive musical raw talent will be plentiful on the album. Man on the Moon: The End of Day–get yours.
