Adele‘s “Someone Like You” has enjoyed much success, from being on Top Charts around the world to the critical praise.

Flogging Molly’s fifth studio album, Speed of Darkness, on the band’s own label, Borstal Beat, shows the sham rock group haven’t slowed down for a second. Speed of Darkness is rich with that speedy celtic anthem punk that gives Flogging Molly such a renowned live-band reputation.

I woke up this morning in a little bit of a funk. I rolled out of bed, made a cup of peppermint tea and started to reflect a little bit on my past. Invariably, I was met with images of both positivity and negativity, some lovely and others heart wrenching.

Stephen Colbert did it, ladies and gentlemen. After promising fans that he would perform “Friday,” Rebecca Black’s “hit” tween-pop “song” on “Late Night With Jimmy Fallon” if his fellow TV host could raise a large enough donation, Colbert delivered on his promise last Friday night and took to the stage to belt out what has become one of the most inexplicably popular songs the Internet has given us this side of a Justin Bieber single.
He also happened to be joined by some very special guests. Read on to watch the performance for yourself…

Katy Perry’s fourth single from Teenage Dream, “E.T.,” recently took the top spot on the Billboard Hot 100, and as of today, March 31, it’s got an appropriately sci-fi themed music video to boost its popularity even further. Sure, the space romance theme may be lifted directly from Lady Gaga, but it’s not like Katy Perry was the most original star in the first place.
(See what we did there?)
Anyway, if you’re curious, read on to check out the music video for yourself.
