European Top 10 Albums
Tuesday, October 2nd, 2007
As of September 27th, six Europeans occupied slots from the European Top 10 ranking. James Blunt, as we all know, is the crooner behind one of the most unnerving singles of the 21st century, “You’re Beautiful.” The British singer-songwriter is back with a new album called “All the Lost Souls.” Prepare to be annoyed! Big-haired Amy Winehouse is still kicking despite garnering bad news and her downward spiral.
Spanish-French Manu Chao has come up with his fourth album “La Radiolina.” For some reasons, a posthumous album, “Pavarotti Forever,” is released to pay tribute to Luciano Pavarotti, who died last month due to cancer. It contains the best of his performances that is showcased in one album–popular opera arias and duets, sacred songs, and Neapolitan favourites.” It will be released only on October 9 and can be pre-ordered from Amazon.com.
The most successful Finnish love metal band HIM (or His Infernal Majesty) followed up “Dark Light” with “Venus Doom.” Newcomer Mika, of Syrian-Lebanese decent, has feel-good singles “Big Girl (You Are Beautiful)” and “Relax, Take It Easy” that are steadily climbing up the charts.
