Macy Gray is back with some old school music. The former chart topper is releasing a new single which really reminds me of the hits that she had from the 90s like ‘I Try’ and ‘Still’. ‘Beauty in the World’ is a sweet and simple song that has a killer hook that’s easy to get into. I love it! Could this be the sign of a comeback from the singer? I hope it is. She’s a pretty good artist when she gets to sing the right kind of music. I really hope there’s more where ‘Beauty in the World’ came from and not just a one hit type of thing.

Head over to Tokio Hotel’s Myspace for an exclusive listen of their album Humanoid. The first single, “Automatic” is a metallic anthem with layered, buzzing guitars, stomping percussion, and a falsetto chorus made to be belted out by a stadium full of people while “World Behind My Wall” redefines the power ballad with depth, introspection, musical confidence and an irresistible sing-along chorus. The band tracked songs in Hamburg, Miami, and L.A. “Bill drove us all crazy, constantly coming in with things, even though the old songs weren’t finished yet,” says Tom, who’s fond of frequently ribbing his brother. “Apart from that, we just didn’t limit ourselves, and we used new instruments.”

The album does not hit stores until tomorrow, but the band is streaming all 12 tracks from the standard version until midnight. Like what you hear? Preorder the sci-fi themed release on iTunes now.
