Avril Lavigne "The Best Damn Thing"

i am quite a fan of Avril Lavigne's songs so you can imagine my delight on hearing news that she will be launching a new album named "The Best Damn Thing" after waiting so long as her last album was during 2004. no doubt, after listening to the previews on several tracks on her new album, i am going to buy her new album which is set to be released on 17 April 2007 in U.S. but i don't know if it will be the same case for my country. what's interesting about this album is that among the 15 tracks included, there's a song called 'Keep Holding On' which was the song for the movie named Eragon. it's a slow ballad but some said that the version in Avril's new album will be different from the movie version. also, you might be amazed at the fact that for the song 'Girlfriend', Avril had recorded 8 different versions in total. besides the normal English version she sings, there are Spanish, Portuguese, Mandarin, Japanese, Italian, German and French version available in the iTunes store as well. before you get the wrong idea, i have to clarify that only the chorus of the song is in different languages while the rest of the songs are in English. perhaps you might want to listen to the song 'Keep Holding On' from the movie Eragon below. this song is definitely going to be in one of my favourite songs list.

Doraemon The Magic 2007

Doraemon New Movie!!!
every year, my favourite anime Doraemon will always be launching a new/re-make movie. so without fail, i always buy the VCDs. perhaps that you might think that i am such a childish person. but hey, that what that makes up me! anyway, if you don't like Doraemon, don't bother reading this post for that's what's it's going to be on about! back to the topic...so well now i am going to start intoducing about the new Doraemon movie named (Doraemon The Magic2007)(Nobita no Shin Makai Daibouken - Shichinin no Mahoutsukai)(ドラえもん のび太の新魔界大冒険~7人の魔法使い~) (大雄的新魔界大冒险~7人的魔法使者~). these are as far as i know, the different languages names for the new movie. basically the new Doraemon movie is a re-make of the Doraemon movie named (Nobita's Great Adventure in the World of Magic)(大雄的魔界大冒险)(ドラえもん のび太の魔界大冒険) launched in the year of 1984 . so with now-a-days better high quality graphics, i can expect a better and nicer movie to watch even though that (i think) the story is still the same! the trailer for the movie is below...watch it here or go to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NkSmbVoP8Go to watch it...

by topping Oricon Weekly Chart, it places BoA right behind Ayumi Hamasaki in terms of who having the most No.1 hit-album. BoA pulled herself out of the tight pack in which all has 4 consecutive No.1-album ; Namie Amuro, MISIA, Mayi and Utada Hikaru. Congratulation BoA !

also, Made In Twenty(20) takes first place in the United World Chart too! United World Chart is a chart consisting of albums with most sales from famous artists all over the world and that includes singers like Nelly Furtado, Justin Timberlake etc... so it's no easy feat to get into this chart!
