Since we've had a prelude to a "Sweat"-y Summer courtesy of Our Melanie C; it would be crazy and utterly 'ga ga' to not celebrate the most successful Solo Spice Girl album of all time: "Northern Star".Spice, Sporty and Pop fans unite because we are giving you an epic two-parter of Mel's iconique debut solo album, which soared between 1999 and 2001, with a string of global hit singles including two UK No.1s 'Never Be The Same' feat. Lisa 'Left Eye' Lopes and 'I Turn To You'. This zesty Part One high kicks the journey off in 1998 into 1999 as we follow Melanie's brewing solo career; from the neo-industrial punk rage of 'Goin' Down' to the tender and autobiographical 'Northern Star' single and our album highlights, b-sides, live performances, fashion and style moments. Where Spice Girls were on a hiatus; Melanie C was certainly going for gold, writing and recording with a string of established dead edgeh hitmakers behind records for Madonna's "Ray of Light", Björk, Massive Attack and more.Stay tuned for Part Two coming real soon!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In 2022, an unexpected diagnosis of colon cancer did little to slow her down and made her an advocate for promoting early detection and regular cancer screenings. We talk with Taylor about what drives her, how she chooses her songs (or if they choose her), and exactly what was that whole thing with Tig Notaro even about.

Bob Spitz has written major biographies of the Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Bob Dylan, and now the Rolling Stones — but also, somehow, Ronald Reagan and Julia Child. In rock, his credentials were hard won: he started out hustling gigs for an unknown Bruce Springsteen for six years, moved on to handling Elton John's American business, and spent long enough in the world to find himself jamming with Paul McCartney and chatting with Bob Dylan on a stoop in the Village. The Reagan and Julia Child books are harder to explain, and perhaps that's the point—Spitz seems to do his best work when he has no business writing the book at all. Tyler and Bob discuss how the Stones became so great so quickly, what they added to the blues, how their melodies stack up against the Beatles', whether Exile on Main Street deserves its canonical status, which songs are most underrated, what Charlie Watts actually got out of playing in a rock band, the rise and fall of Brian Jones, how the Stones outlasted nearly everyone, the influence of Mick's London School of Economics training, why popular music has lost its cultural influence, what we should still be asking Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr, whether the Beatles' breakup was good for the world, how senile Reagan really was in his second term and whether he was ever truly a communist, how good a cook Julia Child actually was, his next book on Lennon's second act, and much more.

“Michael”—a new film, directed by Antoine Fuqua, charting Michael Jackson's rise to fame—just had the best opening weekend in the history of bio-pics, proving that audiences are still eager to celebrate the King of Pop. The movie also ends, pointedly, before the first in a series of allegations of child sexual abuse that have tainted Jackson's reputation ever since. On this episode of Critics at Large, Vinson Cunningham, Naomi Fry, and their fellow staff writer Kelefa Sanneh consider how the unprecedented highs and horrific lows of Jackson's life and career have made him a prism for modern ideas about stardom and power. Sanneh's recent Profile of Fuqua details the Jackson estate's involvement in the production, which resulted in a sanitized portrait of a deeply complex figure. Other works have assessed Jackson's legacy more critically: the 2019 documentary “Leaving Neverland” lays out, in granular detail, the claims of two of Jackson's accusers. “It's just such a dissonance, seeing these two texts in such close proximity,” Fry says. “The thing with ‘Michael' is, it doesn't separate the art from the artist. It separates the artist from the wrongdoing entirely.”Read, watch, and listen with the critics:“Michael” (2026)Michael Jackson's “Thriller”Michael Jackson's “Dangerous”“The Action-Film Director Who's Taking On Michael Jackson,” by Kelefa Sanneh (The New Yorker)“Quiet on Set: The Dark Side Of Kids TV” (2024)“I'm Glad My Mom Died,” by Jennette McCurdy“On Michael Jackson,” by Margo Jefferson“Leaving Neverland” (2019)Michael Jackson's “Off the Wall”“Justin Bieber, Pop Music's Fallen Angel, Rises Again at Coachella,” by Vinson Cunningham (The New Yorker)New episodes drop every Thursday.

Sabrina Carpenter's Short n' Sweet is quickly becoming one of the defining pop eras of the 2020s. After discussing Future Nostalgia in Part 1, this week we'll be providing our final thoughts on Future Nostalgia and begin comparing and contrasting Sabrina Carpenter's breakthrough with Katy Perry's Teenage Dream. In Part 2 of Vinyl Drop's first VS series, Keith Montena is joined by AJ Marks, host of Main Pod Girl and lead moderator at Reddit's Popheads, to break down Sabrina Carpenter's ascent. From the foundation laid by Emails I Can't Send to the breakout moment of Espresso, it became clear how her sound, humor, and image started to click and define this era. We discuss the rollout, the music, the history, and whether this album holds a candle to modern pop benchmarks like Future Nostalgia before going head to head with Teenage Dream in the bigger picture of pop longevity. Which album is the Teenage Dream of the 2020s? It all ends next Thursday with Part 3.

This set leans into pure EDM pop energy where vocals carry the emotion and the drops keep pushing forward. Big names, familiar hooks, and club-ready builds all stacked into a continuous flow that never really settles. Since January 2026, I've been pushing high-energy, nonstop pressure mixes. This time, I'm bringing it back to that core EDM pop space. A reset in the flow — what comes up must come down. Still moving, still driving, but more melodic, more vocal, more grounded in that pop-dance feel. Kylie opens clean and direct before J.Lo and Guetta push the early momentum. Sia and Mark Knight bring in that emotional tension, then the mix shifts into a crossover moment where Seven Lions and Tiesto collide into one. Demi follows with that vocal lift, and from there it rides deeper with Prospa, Bebe, and Nico into a smoother late run. Madonna frames the set at the beginning and ending with her Confessions II drop, and Hung Up closes it out.

Twenty-five years ago, this high-energy musical adaptation of the both the comic book and TV cartoon was released to much hype....and no one showed up. :( It was a sizeable flop at the box office but has since garned a devoted cult following as a result of its sharp satire and catchy soundtrack.  It's a seemingly simple story about three young ladies from the small town of Riverdale who are just trying to break out with their band, The Pussycats.   They include Josie (Rachael Leigh Cook), Melody (Tara Reid), and Valerie (Rosario Dawson) and one day, they are just toiling to pick up their next gig when they are suddenly discovered by a shady record producer Wyatt (Alan Cumming) who seems something special in them.  They are whisked off to New York City, signed to his label run by the ruthless Fiona (Parker Posey) and overnight, they become a pop sensation now named, "Josie and the Pussycats."  However, their success comes with some unexpected consquences and they soon find themselves embroiled in a massive conspiracy involving the delivery of subliminal messages through pop music. :o Directed by Deborah Kaplan and Harry Elfont (Can't Hardly Wait), this enduring cult hit also co-stars Gabriel Mann, Missi Pyle, and Carson Daly (!)....as you've NEVER seen him before!   Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene Gershon Send us Fan MailSupport the showhttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/
