3rd MyFABEMusic Awards: Dance Act of 2012

The Dance Act of the Year is another new category we have introduced this year.  Again, my definition of a 'dance act' may vary a bit from what the industry says and there will be years where pop or hip hop artists may be in this category.

Here are the nominees for Dance Act of the Year.

Big Bang

David Guetta

Loreen

Florence + the Machine

Madonna

And the Dance Act of 2012 is Madonna.

 

G-Dragon of Big Bang

I've always thought K-pop groups, especially the boys look a tad too androgynous for my taste.  That's true for the boy band Big Bang.  Some of their members like Seungri and Taeyang and Daesung look hot and masculine but G-Dragon here looks a bit androgynous to me. 

Seungri - Hot Hot Member of Big Bang

Oh god!  I have several Big Bang songs in my Ipod and some of them sound good but I never realized that some of their members, like this one, Seung Ri, are incredibly hot hot hot!

Daesung of Big Bang

Dae Sung is the second member of Big Bang and they're coming here to Manila in two weeks.  All these guys have serious abs!!

Big Bang Tops My Personal Countdown for the First Time

#1 - Big Bang - Blue (10)

Big Bang becomes the first Korean act to top my personal countdown.  This week, their song Blue zooms from #10 to #1.  

#2 - Chris Brown - Turn Up the Music (1)

Chris Brown's Turn Up the Music slips to #2 after topping the charts last week.

#3 - David Guetta feat. Chris Brown - I Can Only Imagine (RE)

David Guetta scores another Top 10 this week as his collaboration with Chris reenters at #3.  They debuted at #8 two weeks ago.   This also marks the week where Chris Brown has two hits in the Top 5.

#4 - Hanson - Give A Little (#9)

This song moves back up five places to #4.  This has been the song's peak position for now.  This is my most favorite song from Hanson's latest album.

#5 - Madonna - Turn Up the Radio (NEW)

With the debut of MDNA, it is not surprising to find a new Madonna song in my Top 10.  This is, as of now, my most favorite song from her album.

#6 - LMFAO - Hot Dog (#2)

This song, a new one from LMFAO, slips to #6 this week, after debuting at #2 last week.  This is one of my favorite songs from their Sorry For Party Rocking album

#7 - Anja Aguilar - To Reach You (NEW)

Anja Aguilar debuts at #7 this week with her sweet ballad, To Reach You.  She's the only OPM song in the Top 10 for now.

#8 - The Cranberries - Schizophrenic Playboys (4)

The Cranberries' new album yields this hit which they played during their concert here in Manila two weeks ago.  It shows the band still at their top form and check out the intriguing title!

#9 - fun. - Some Nights (NEW)

fun has just currently topped the US charts for six weeks with We Are Young, but I like their second song better.  This sounds more fun, at least for me!

#10 - Chris Cornell - The Keeper (NEW)

I watched the movie Machine Gun Preacher this week, and from that movie comes this poignant song from Soundgarden lead vocalist, Chris Cornell, The Keeper.  It was nominated for the Golden Globe earlier this year, although it did not win.  The song perfectly captures the spirit of the movie, too bad, it missed an Oscar nomination!

First Korean #1 Song in My Personal Top 10 Countdown!

KPop has been with us for several years now, but this week marks the first time a Korean song hits the #1 spot in My Personal Weekly Top 10 Favorite Songs - a personal list I have been maintaining since 1984!  Blue by Big Bang (Dolce & Bond remix) becomes the first Korean song to do just that. South Korea now joins Iceland, Spain, China, Canada, France, and Germany as countries whose non-English songs have topped My Personal Weekly Top 10.  Brazil is not far behind as there is a Portuguese song that I like right now.  Let's just see how it progresses in the weeks to come.
