The Crawl: In Which Tiger Woods Slow Jams
+ It may not be music-related, but it's the biggest story of the week: Tiger Woods, his Escalades, his sexts, his women, his voicemails, and his slow jams. Wait—what? Maybe it IS music-related. [Half Day Today, via Earfarm]
+ Last month, we rang up the always-engaging Dave 1 of Chromeo to discuss "Night By Night," the first piece of new original music from the Montreal duo in two years. Now, we have a video for your Internet viewing pleasure. [Green Label Sound]
+The secret to keeping the music industry afloat? Sign forty-something women with good pipes who appeal to a market that doesn't know how/where to find illegal downloads. Next thing you know, 701,000 in first week sales. At least that's what happened for Susan Boyle. [LA Times]
+ An all-star lineup covered Fleetwood Mac's Rumours album in full last night at the Bell House in Brooklyn. The occasion was a birthday party for booker Jack McFadden, and the revolving door of vocalists included Will Sheff of Okkervil River and Beth Wawerna of Bird Of Youth (video below), Maryland indie duo Wye Oak, Matthew Caws of Nada Surf, Britta of Dean & Britta, as well as Sharon Van Etten, members of French Kicks and Au Revoir Simone. Can/should Tusk be next? [BrooklynVegan]
+ Ever noticed how some metal vocalists growl so fiercely that they sound like the Cookie Monster? If you hadn't before, you will after this Rammstein/Cookie Monster mashup. [Videosift]
