I'm currently looking for some new writers in order to expand the blog given that I can't post the amount of things I'd like to. So if you are interested in writing about anything related to music (news, TV shows, album reviews, introducing artists) just drop me an email to musicisthedoor@gmail.com and we can discuss some of your ideas.

Message from Me

I just wanted to let you know that my computer has died and it is being fixed right now. Hopefully I get it on Wednesday. (sad face) I'm writing from my Ipod which is insane so I'll keep things short. The polls for The Soul Awards will be posted when I get my machine and I'm also planing some YT/MS Artists, so come back on Wednesday to VOTE!!

Nouvelle Star Season 7






I couldn't find any videos for this season (again), well actually I couldn't embed any. So I had paste the videos under each contestant. You can watch them by clicking on the small video tape. My favourite 3 are: Camélia-Jordana, she has such an unique voice!, it remembers me of Megan Joy's one, you know, with a quite exotic sound; Dalé, he sounds like the french Seal, very good voice; and Lary, despite his funny aspect, I like him a lot, his cover of James Morrison's "You give me Somthing" was great.

Black Box Video Premiere


"Black Box" is the debut single recorded by season seven winner of Australian Idol, Stan Walker. It is from his debut album, "Introducing... Stan Walker." The song was released digitally on November 22, 2009 where it broke records as the fastest selling Sony Music download ever. A music video was filmed on November 24, 2009. Walker made comment stating “There might be a little bit of group dancing… we’ll see what happens. At first I was really nervous but I’ve warmed up now and I’m getting into it. I’m working on my look” [...] “It’s pretty cool – it’s my first ever film clip. It’s basically a house party that explains the lyrics. It talks about a relationship that has gone down but everything is still recorded in the black box. I really like it."

Now you can also become my friend on Digg!! Digg my posts and help me get more readers. I'll also want to announce that the Idol of the Year award date will be delayed until all the Idol/X Factor series are posted and until all the pools are closed. Then there will be a first round of votation and then the final round.

REMEMBER THAN YOU CAN VOTE FOR 3 DIFFERENT CONTESTATS as I've seen that many people only voted for one.

Eesti otsib superstaari Season 3






I couldn't find a single biography of the contestants, so I didn't post any. My top 3: Birgit, Anne, Kene. AMAZING singers and performers. Anne is the best singer, Kene the best performer and Birgit is a combination of both. My favourite of the three is definitely Kene, she is so unique and I found her voice very rare, being eliminated so early didn't give her the chance to show her amazing potential.

Alexa Ray "is going to be fine"

The 23-year-old singer was rushed to the hospital in an apparent suicide attempt on December 5. Billy Joel, her father, assured the public that his daughter Alexa Ray Joel "is going to be fine," speaking to a Newsday reporter. Alexa Ray, the only child of Joel and his ex-wife Christie Brinkley, was admitted to St. Vincent's Medical Center in New York after swallowing unidentified pills and complaining of difficulty breathing. She has since been released from the hospital and is staying with her father at an undisclosed location, her publicist told the AP on Monday.
A family friend attributed Alexa Ray's troubles to a "rough breakup with a boyfriend" (James "Jimmy Riot" Elliot).

In each edition there will be a different series starting with American Idol and then following the list in the order above. The contestants will be in order of elimination, being the first the winner.

My top 3 contestants names will be in capital leters and in gold, while the other contestants names will be in red. This doesn't mean I don't like them or that I don't consider them good, I just prefer my top 3 more.
