Urlesque has discovered something amazing : Did you know that your dog's absolute favorite song is Gwen Stefani's 'The Sweet Escape'? There are 100s of videos featuring dogs singing along to the song, it has a magical power over them. Can Akon speak to dogs? If so, I think we're in trouble .

Mr.B The Gentleman Rhymer brings you a melody summing up 30-years of “chap-hop”, which seems to just be regular hip-hop sung by fancy English white dudes.

We've always found Shakira odd, with the belly dancing and Kermit-with-a-frog-in-his-throat vocal quality, but her new video for “She Wolf” makes her the official mayor of Crazytown. If doing The Lawn Mower inside a giant vagina, wearing Lady GaGa's rejects, and writhing in a cage, Dirrty -style, is what it's like on Shakira's planet, then we're going to start checking rates for spaceship rentals.

This horn for giants sounds, by default, f*cking hilarious. We'd totally line up for an orchestra featuring instruments that sound like God's farts. To be fair, we'd totally line up for an orchestra called God's Farts. (via Urlesque )

Comedian/musician/performance artist/all-around genius Reggie Watts performed on Late Night , which may finally earn him the attention he's long deserved. When one says there is no one else like Reggie, it's not a compliment. It's a fact. You try layering beats, rhythms, and melodies atop one another, only after providing “disinformation” in a flawless British accent.

I'm kind of in love with this Twitter that plays a game I play in my head on the daily: thinking of new band names. The winners so far? “The Gay Founding Fathers,” “Lil' Ponzi and the Schemes,” and “Strippers & Badminton.”

BUSINESS BUZZ: All of Virgin's remaining U.S. Megastores will shutdown and liquidate this summer. The sad news is, this isn't even an issue of the music industry dying or anything like that. The property owners just want to make more money on rent than Virgin would pay. Quite the virginity auction , if you ask me.
