Hey everyone, we’re doing a bit of server merger around the network so things are going to be a little wonky throughout the weekend. Hopefully things get back to normal by Monday without a hitch. Cross your fingers.
So please don’t think the blog has disappeared. Pop Music Scene will be back. I hope you all have a great weekend.
See ya’ll next week .

As part of the Music Channel’s Summer Soundtrack theme day, I’m sharing with you the summer hits I’ve been listening to. I guess you could call it as a “Summer Soundtrack”. I haven’t had time time to crank up the old school songs, except on a few instances here at the Song Of The Day feature. As August is such a busy month for me, I usually pump the volume up when my favorite hits are playing on Satellite TV’s XM Hitlist or 20 on 20. Take a listen below and hope everyone is having a wonderful Summer!

Whatever music genre you listen to, the music channel offers 2 songs from each blog to add to your Playlist this Monday. Check them all out and see what music treasures you’ll find.
The Jazz and Blues Lounge is our online authority. Keeping with the jazz era The Good Musician gives us two of the greatest of all time. Finish your third cup of coffee and bring it upbeat a bit with either Pop and listen to some new Nelly ft Fergie at Pop Music Scene or download two free metal tracks at Metal Martyr.

There are 2 songs I’m digging these days that I’ve added on my playlist. All Around Me by Flyleaf and Party People by Nelly and Fergie . 2 very different kinds of songs which explains my eclectic taste when it comes to music. Take a listen yourself and tell me what you think. I still haven’t gotten over my shock upon hearing Fergie’s mad rapping skillz . Listen and tell me what you think on each song.

What 2 new songs have you added on your playlist lately?

On weekdays, I listen to 2 specific XM Satellite music channels through Direct TV. I alternate between XM Hitlist(817) and 20 on 20(816). It usually starts at 10am, after I watch good ‘ol TODAY Show(7-9am) and Dr. Phil(9-10am) . Those satellite music channels get attention, alternately, for an hour. While I work, tend to my 19month old baby and doing a little bit of house chores. By 11am I like to watch the Hot Topics from The View. After that portion of the show, I go back to listening to my music channels until my Soaps time which …read more
