Abs Vs Justin Timberlake?

Just who is UK’s equivalent of Justin Timberlake?

A debate has been sparked and many are saying that if all go well, then Abs may very well be it.

Said one fan, “Justin bores me. Abs is better than the Trousersnake. How Justin has had so much success in the UK confuses me?! He was only ever famous as Britney’s boyfriend. His first single wasn’t a very strong song.”

And how does Abs feel being compared to Justin?
“Everything he does turns to gold,” he told a webzine. “He can’t do anything wrong. I’d love to have worked with the Neptunes like him, but people would just say that I was trying to be like Justin. But Justin does what Justin does and he does it well. I don’t look at people like him and wannabe like them. I do my own thing. I’ll just go off and do my thing and hope people like it.”

Well, luckily for Abs, people are loving and raving about his new single ‘Stop Sign’. It’s out in stores already so get one now.

‘The Hindu Times’ fellows, Oasis are bragging that they’ve written another album’s worth of tunes that are the “best songs in the world”.

Although the new album isn’t expected to be recorded or released until next year, it hasn’t stopped the boys biggin’ up their latest ballads.

Predicting that they’ll all be monster hits, Liam told the press “My songs are the best f**king songs in the world. I write the best mother f**ker songs in the world.”

A slightly more modest Noel added “I have got about five songs done, Liam’s got about six, plus Gem’s got a couple.”

Rumoured titles for the tracks include ‘Longer’, ‘Say It’ and ‘The Good Rebel’.

MTV News reports Canada’s music elite, including Avril Lavigne, Sum 41, Sarah McLachlan, Barenaked Ladies, Our Lady Peace, Glenn Lewis, Remy Shand and the Tragically Hip are joining forces to battle Toronto’s tourism troubles, which began when the SARS broke out there earlier this year.

The show is set to take place come 21st of June at Toronto’s Skydome and the adjacent Air Canada Centre.

“We rely on concerts to bring in a lot of tourists to Toronto in the summer, so the reason this was put together by various levels of government and promoters was because we saw an opportunity to give back to the city using Canadian acts, showing the world that Toronto is open for business” said Brett Gallagher, vice president of concerts for the Skydome.

CDstands.com, a division of CDreview.com, is planning to revolutionize the way that CD collectors, music fans, artists, and other people in the music world display a favorite CD by releasing a clever little product called the TROPHY CD STAND.
The TROPHY CD STAND offers an alternative to framing a CD and hanging it on the wall. It’s a product that displays a CD, along with the CD cover, like a trophy. This easily allows anyone to show off a CD by displaying it on a bookcase, dresser, mantle, or desktop.

Scott Clark, President of CDstands.com, stated: “When an artist completes a CD project, it is important for that artist to take at least one CD and display it in order to celebrate his or her accomplishment. When a music fan gets an autographed CD, that CD is no longer just a CD, it is a piece of the fan’s history and there should be an easy way to display that CD without having to frame it. Because of this, we created CDstands.com”.

The TROPHY CD STAND is perfect for an artist, record store, promoter, or label doing a CD release party or an autograph session. Selling Trophy CD Stands to fans is not only an easy way to generate income, it’s also a smart way to make sure that a specific CD is not just put away with other CDs. Here a CD will be displayed out in the open for people to see and talk about so it keeps the buzz live.

The TROPHY CD STAND can also be used to turn heads as a promotional item or reward those that have worked on a CD project.

CDstands.com is based in Hamilton, New Jersey. The company’s product is available through its website at www.cdstands.com. For phone orders, call 609-689-1711.
