First Thoughts: Maroon 5 Ft. Christina Aguilera, "Moves Like Jagger"

So they released the video for the Maroon 5/Xtina joint yesterday. What do you think?



Personally, if we're looking for a video with impersonators, I'm going to go with the Poly Styrene video with all the Michael Jackson impersonators we showed yesterday. And if you want songs that mention Jagger, I'll take Cher Lloyd's "Swagger Jagger."

You Can Now Take A Cruise With Weezer To An Island In The Sun

Weezer is doing one of those celebrity cruise things that seem to be popular among a lot of the hair bands I used to follow. Weezer will be performing on the cruise along with Dinosaur Jr., Sebadoh, Gene Ween and Dave Dreiwitz, Wavves, The Antlers, Yuck, Free Energy, Boom Bip, J. Mascis, Lou Barlow, Keepaway, Ozma, The Nervous Wreckords, The Knocks, Sleeper Agent, and Yacht Rock Review. It's like Lollapalooza on a ship!

I've always wondered what happens on these things if you're the talent. When you perform a normal concert, you run backstage when it's done or sneak out the back, and you're done. You have no further interaction with the fans. But on a cruise, you're stuck. I mean, you could stay in your cabin when you're not performing, but those things are way too tiny for that. So what do you do? Mingle with the unwashed?

For this week's Your Say Hump Day, we want you to design your own concert cruise. Tell us what bands you'd have play at your gig. And feel free to give it a cool or cheesy name!

The Voice: Who Ya Got?

I've been watching and loving The Voice for the past two months. While it's made me long for a weekly Cee Lo Green variety show, I've also loved watching the different contestants along the way.

But tonight, it all comes to an end. A winner will be crowned. That person will walk away with $100,00 and a recording contract.

So who do you think it will be?

You can make a case for any of the four contestants:

• Javier Colon probably has the purest voice of anyone in the competition
• Dia Frampton, with her rockstar name and indie queen looks, can make any song hers
• Every time Vicci Martinez hits the stage, you know you're in for a Performance

But for me, no one can hold a candle to Beverly McClellan. I love her voice and her look, but most of all, I love her attitude. She just seems so happy, so into it, every time she hits the stage. Like it's something she HAS to be doing.

So for this week's Your Say Hump Day, we want to know who you think will win The Voice. Have your say in the comments!

For the most part, that's an awful list, right? Who owns this crap?

Confession: I own 4 albums on this list (Gaga, Britney, and both Eminem albums).

So for this week's Your Say Hump Day, tell us how many of these seventeen albums you own.

Be honest.

Be brave.

Beyonce premiered her new video tonight. While I'm still not a fan of the song, I do like the video.

Great. All those people are right. The world really is going to end in 2012. Britney said so, y'all.
