Groupon's Superbowl Ad/Commercial: Bad Man, Very Bad

What started off as a seemingly caring commercial about Tibet, morphed into a tasteless commerical for the website Groupon.

I'm all for being cleveer, but one might think is funny at the watercooler, might be in taste for over a hundred million people.

Here's a sneak peak

.11 Kim Kardashian Skechers 2011 (OK this commercial isn't great, I just like looking at her!)

Adele - Rolling In The Deep (Video)

The best thing about Adele outside of her soulful voice is that she lives in the U.K. If she was American, there would be very few producers in the U.S. who would how to match her retro vocals with a 60's soul vibe. The same goes for Amy Winehouse, Duffy and Estelle.

UK producers do not seem afraid to put music around their artists that fit them, not have the artist fit the producer.

Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Heads Will Roll (Video)

On the "Superbowl" Glee episode, the cast performed a mash-up of Michael Jackson's "Thriller" and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs' "Heads Will Roll". I first came across this video on the music channel Fuse, when they had a show on videos inspired by Michael Jackson. While MJ's "Thriller" video was aG rated version of "American Werewolf in London", this video vibes with its  full horror-ific essence.

Joss Stones "Bears" All for Peta AD

 Singer Joss Stone supports her stane against killing of bears to make hats for The Queen of England's Guards.



The Warblers-Bill, Bills, Bills (Glee)

The Warblers probably won't be around next season and Kurt probably rejoin "New Directions" sooner or later, but I'm always impressed by the different acapella versions that Darren Criss and his crew perform.
