When the British Invasion arrived in America in the mid-1960s, the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, and other bands introduced songs like “Little Red Rooster” and “Road Runner” to American teenagers who assumed they were originals. In fact, those bands’ catalogs were full of American R&b and blues classics from years in the past, originally written and recorded by black musicians such as Muddy Waters, Howlin’ Wolf, Bo Diddley, and others. Singers like John Lennon and Mick Jagger took more interest in this music than many listeners had at the time,...

Gym, tanning, laundry, dance. “Jersey Shore” star Vinny Guadagnino is the next celebrity to be revealed on Fox’s “The Masked Dancer.”
Guadagnino was revealed to be the person under the Hammerhead shark costume on Wednesday’s edition of the hit series. He was unmasked after dancing to Santa Esmeralda’s version of “Don’t Let Me Be Misunderstood.”
“I’m not a singer or a dancer, but this is probably a little bit more in my wheelhouse,” Guadagnino told Variety. “So I was like, I’m a little scared but I think I can make this work let’s try it. I didn’t really even know I was gonna make it past like week one, so I ended up falling in love with it and really getting competitive with it. It was great experience.”
Guadagnino said his dancing experience comes down to breakdancing at parties as a kid.

(Warning: This post contains spoilers for Wednesday’s “The Masked Dancer.”)
It’s the moment you’ve all been waiting for: The first season of Fox’s “The Masked Dancer” made it to its Super Six round Wednesday, when the remaining contestants from Groups A and B came together to perform for the first time and one competitor was eliminated and unmasked.
During the hour, Hammerhead, Tulip, Exotic Bird, Cotton Candy, Sloth and Zebra all took the stage to give their first dances since making it into the final six.
After each of those contestants shook it all off, it was time for panelists Ken Jeong, Paula Abdul, Brian Austin Green, Ashley Tisdale and guest judge Whitney Cummings to vote for their favorite dancers and, in doing so, determine the weakest performer.
The contestant who came out on the bottom was Hammerhead, who did a dance to Santa Esmeralda’s...

Movie fan Clara Darko put together a video montage that pays tribute to 60 classic sword fights that have been featured in films over the years. Who doesn't love watching a great sword fight? Some great ones are featured in this video, and they are all cut to the cover song "Don't Let Me be Misunderstood," by Santa Esmeralda, which was also used in Kill Bill. It's an incredibly fun watch, so enjoy!

Janelle Monae wants to take you to Rio on her new song and resistance is futile. “What Is Love,” which is featured in 20th Century Fox’s animated feature, “Rio 2,” came out today. The song combines Monae’s trademark irrepressibly bouncy, upbeat sound with a slight Brazilian rhythm and with lots of great percussion. It’s easy to see the birds of Rio bopping to the tune. It’s easy to see anyone bopping to it. It has the same kind of fun vibe as the Spice Girls' "Spice Up Your Life" crossed with Santa Esmeralda's version of "Please Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood." Yep, I went there. In the song, Monae wonders what good is love if it’s not coming from the one she loves, but the song is as light as a feather, so even though she may be asking a deep question, the...

Quentin Tarantino's use of pre-recorded songs comes under the spotlight in Ivan's latest Music in Film...
“I don’t normally use original score. I don’t trust any composer to do it.”
That’s Quentin Tarantino in a nutshell: his love of music rivals his love of film. A new Tarantino album is now an event in itself, so it’s hard not to devote an entire column to the director with Django Unchained in cinemas.
Eclectic is the word most used to describe Tarantino’s soundtracks, which hop around his record collection like an excited teenager who just snuck into his parent’s bedroom. Django is no exception, but marks the largest amount of original music in any of his films to date.
Just how big a deal is that?
The director’s use of music has changed over the years. Back...

South Korea’s Kim Jee-Woon has been a Sound on Sight favorite for some time, having created diverse, sprawling, and beautifully realized genre pieces like I Saw the Devil and A Tale of Two Sisters. He now makes his American debut with, of all things, Arnold Schwarzenegger’s comeback vehicle The Last Stand. Ricky, Edgar and Simon see if Jee-Woon’s style translates, while also taking a look back at the director’s epic western/martial-arts/comedy hybrid The Good, The Bad, The Weird.

I’m pretty picky when it comes to the audiences I share my cineplex experiences with. So imagine my ire when I sat down for the early show at IFC Center this morning only to be surrounded by three older gents who proceeded to smack on hard candy like it was their goddamned profession. That’s usually a deal-breaker for me and any kind of enjoyment I could have with a movie; so when I say that I had a blast watching The Good, The Bad, The Weird, you can take that to be a pretty serious endorsement.
Fast-paced and frenetic, Tgtbtw is a hot-shot Korean flick by way of Spaghetti Western. Jung Woo-sung, Lee Byung-hun, and Song Kang-ho star respectively as the titular trio. I only recognized Song Kang-ho of the three (from his awesome turn in Bong Joon-ho’s The Host), but apparently all these guys are mega-stars back in Seoul.
