song: Last News

Selome Hailu Jack Black, Kenan Thompson and Ego Nwodim smashed together a reggae track with a parody of the My Chemical Romance song “Welcome to the Black Parade” on “Saturday Night Live” to joke about how goth kids act on vacation. Dressed in exaggerated goth attire, complete with bold eyeliner and a black wig, Black sang, “When I was a young boy / My parents took me down to Jamaica / For my high school spring break / They said, ‘Come to the pool’ but / I stayed in the room with my graphic novels / So I could masturbate.” The song started with the reggae beat alone, with Thompson and Nwodim playing Jamaicans and singing, “When there is war and struggle and pain / How do we fill our souls with joy again? / We look and we laugh at / Goth kid on vacation.” Michael Longfellow played the song’s titular goth kid, sticking out from his happy family in photos, wearing combat boots on the beach, getting his long coat stuck in a hammock, painting his nails black and screaming after getting hit in the head with a beach ball.

Michaela Zee “Saturday Night Live” isn’t letting bygones be bygones following country superstar Morgan Wallen‘s abrupt walk-off during the goodnights of last week’s episode. Wallen, who performed two songs as the musical guest on the March 29 episode, bolted from the stage in the middle of the usual group hugs and farewells at the end of the show. He then posted a photo of his private jet on Instagram with the caption, “Get me to God’s country.” On the latest “SNL” episode, the show mocked Wallen’s walk-off not once, but twice.

Michaela Zee Jack Black is hosting “Saturday Night Live” for the first time in nearly 20 years — and he kicked off tonight’s episode with a song about his return. Black began his opening monologue by jokingly announcing that he was quitting the hosting gig. “I know, it’s the first time ever a host has quit in the middle of the monologue.

Jack Black is back! The comedic veteran lit up Studio 8H with an opening musical tribute — marching band in tow — set to his newest song for A Minecraft Movie.

Katcy Stephan “A Minecraft Movie” and “Napoleon Dynamite” don’t sound too similar on paper. After all, what could a blockbuster video game adaptation starring Jason Momoa have in common with a 2004 indie comedy? As it turns out, quite a bit. With llamas, tater tots, and Idaho setting and a washed-up high school legend at its heart, “A Minecraft Movie” draws on much of director Jared Hess’ humor from his feature debut two decades ago.

Agence-France Presse “he had been ill for a while”.The duo’s France-based manager, Yannick Tardy, who had spoken to Mariam by phone, said Amadou had been taken to a clinic after feeling fatigued and had died later that day, per the Guardian.Amadou and his wife, Mariam Doumbia, formed the group Amadou & Marium after meeting in 1976, when Amadou was 21 and Mariam 18, at the Institute for the young blind in the Malian capital, Bamako.He had lost his eyesight at the age of 16, while Mariam became blind at age five as a consequence of untreated measles.

Arcade Fire have shared a new song and video for ‘Cars and Telephones’.Speculation began back in March, when the Canadian indie rock band made some drastic changes to their social media pages. On Instagram, this included deleting all their posts and uploading a new profile picture, bio, and website link, which didn’t go unnoticed by fans.Notably, the band removed all of their Instagram posts and changed the artwork on the page in 2022, as part of the lead-up to them announcing their sixth studio album ‘WE’.More recently, their bio was updated with the cryptic message: “It’s the year of the snake so let your heart break”, and their profile picture changed to the word “TRUST” in all-caps written in a circle.Speculation culminated in yesterday’s (April 4) teaser, which saw the band share a video showing an unseen person finger-painting “TRUST” on the back of a tambourine – accompanied by a caption that pointed to an announcement “in the Circle of Trust” – their members fan club app – at 5pm Central Time (11pm UK time).A post shared by Arcade Fire (@arcadefire)According to members who have since taken to social media, the new track was shared in a podcast.

Machine Gun Kelly and his new baby mama, Megan Fox, have had their ups and downs. However, despite that rollercoaster ride of emotions, they always seem to find their way back to one another. This most recent breakup could end the same way.

Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic The album title “Who Believes in Angels?” may or may not be a rhetorical question, but it’s OK to stick with that lofty circumlocution long enough to consider the idea that Elton John and Brandi Carlile may actually be a match made in heaven, figuratively or otherwise. These longtime friends share that sense of being touched by virtuosity and endless melodic capability on a level few of their pop-rock peers ever could be.

Jem Aswad Executive Editor, Music Considering how aggressive hardcore music is, and how much the spirit of it is about personal freedom, it’s sometimes surprising to see how hyper-sensitive and judgmental the scene can be. The bruising Northern California quintet Scowl were always different — and not only because they have a female singer, Kat Moss, who isn’t afraid to dress glam when she wants to.

Scowl are gathered backstage at The Fillmore in Charlotte, North Carolina, the latest in a dizzying array of shows that have propelled the band from performances at unlikely venues like a Sonic Drive-In to 2000-cap rooms. Kat Moss, the frontwoman for the Bay Area hardcore band, stands out from her bandmates with her shock of neon green hair. She is joined by the rest of the band, guitarists Malachi Greene and Mikey Bifolco, bassist Bailey Lupo, and drummer Cole Gilbert, who squeeze in tightly on the green room couch.
