所以, to quote the Black Eyed Peas, let’s get it started.

两件事要听
Harry Styles performs onstage at Los Angeles Convention Center during the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards, broadcast on March 14, 2021.
Since Harry Styles made music in the midst of the pandemic, it makes sense that his new album is titled “Harry’s House.”
He is well past his days as just a member of the boy band One Direction, 和 his third studio album firmly cements Styles as a solo star.
“He’s pulled off the neat trick of making his music at once elegant and more refined but also warmer and more intimate,” 根据 滚石.
The album is dropping Friday. 是, 请.
(从左边开始) Jerry Becker, Taylor Locke, Pat Monahan, and Hector Maldonado, of multi-Grammy Award-winning band Train, perform onstage in San Francisco for “A Capitol Fourth” 在 2021.
十一年前, the rock band Train came to CNN’s headquarters in Atlanta and helped a man propose 与 2009 热门歌曲 “Marry Me.”
The band has made lots of music since then, and the latest, “AM Gold,” 星期五出去.
Lead vocalist Pat Monahan explained the title of the album to Rock Cellar magazine.
“When we were writing the record, because of how eclectic it was, my manager came up with the name ‘AM Gold,'” 他说. “He felt like it was like an old-school ‘AM Gold’ compilation of a bunch of different varieties of music. Seemed like an appropriate name.”
一件事要谈
Members of folk-rap group Kalush Orchestra pose onstage after winning Eurovision 2022 on behalf of Ukraine on May 14, at the Pala Alpitour venue in Turin, 意大利.
With all the country has been enduring, it felt good to see the world rally around the group and the winning song, “Stefania,” written as a tribute to the frontman’s mother.
一世 interviewed former Olympian Johnny Weir, who hosted the US streaming event of the competition. He predicted that Ukraine would be an odd-on favorite, and he was completely correct.
An international music contest may seem like a small thing. But to a war-torn country, it’s a point of pride and a spark of light in the darkness.
喝点东西
Kristin Chenoweth attends the AFI Awards Luncheon at Beverly Wilshire, a Four Seasons Hotel, 在三月 11, 在比佛利山庄, 加利福尼亚州.
One twist of fate can forever alter your life — that’s what I thought about with Kristin Chenoweth and the 1977 Oklahoma Girl Scout murders.
作为一个孩子, the Tony-winning actor missed going on a Girl Scouts camping trip because she fell ill. During that trip, three of her friends were brutally murdered.
Chenoweth has said the case has haunted her every day. 这就是为什么 she returned home to participate in the docuseries “Keeper of the Ashes: The Oklahoma Girl Scout Murders,” in which she revisits the crime and completely puts to rest the identity of the murderer.
It’s a harrowing tale. And given the life Chenoweth has built, it begs the question as to what her friends might have achieved had they been given the chance.
