Let’s celebrate Valentine’s Day by posting a great song lyric by Warren Haynes:
She’s so beautifully broken
You can barely see the flaw
Especially from a distance
Which is always how I fall

Investigation of Sony BMG and Warner
Interesting article at ABC news. Got the link through Adam Curry’s weblog.
New York Attorney General Eliot Spitzer said record company documents obtained in the investigation of Sony BMG and Warner revealed payments for songs that became major hits, including Jennifer Lopez’s “I’m Real.”
Not really surprising, didnt everybody suspect this all along ?
