Nicole Scherzinger released her newest single ‘Your Love,’ a memorable dance track that’ll have you singing along to the chorus’ “do-do-do.”

God told Noah to build an ark. You may have wished you had done so, given our recent weather. I was sitting in my office, trying to think of something to write about other than the weather & flooding, but that's dominated my consciousness all day.

Destiny's Child has (kind of) reunited on Michelle Williams' new song 'Say Yes!' The uplifting tune, which takes lyrics from a traditional Nigerian gospel hymn, features Beyonce, Kelly Rowland and even Solange Knowles on the track.

It's graduation time in Acadiana and the 2014 rehearsals and graduation ceremonies have begun.  It's also the time of year to knock off the dust on T. K. Hulin's '(As They Pass Me By) Graduation Night'.

Thanks to the powers of Instagram, Justin Timberlake just shocked the world with a huge revelation -- he's on Michael Jackson's posthumous album, 'Xscape.' In the photo, JT revealed the single art for 'Love Never Felt So Good,' the track he (apparently!) sings on.

I've been an Eric Clapton fan since I was 12. He kicked off his 2014 US tour Sunday at the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival. I was in attendance, accompanied by two longtime friends with whom I've attended Clapton concerts before. "Slowhand" concerts are a VERY special experience for me. I've had the opportunity to share them with some people very special to me, both of my children, my brother, two past girlfriends, and my buddies with whom I hung on Sunday.

Imagine, 'Imagine' and 'Band On The Run' being played at the same time.  Think it would sound crazy?  Think again.

I've been a fan since my teenage years. Over the decades, I've had the pleasure of seeing Crosby, Stills & Nash perform live only twice. The first was in 1982 at the LSU Assembly Center. The second was at the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival in 2003. They're kicking off a summer tour.

I've been a fan of Steely Dan since high school. The band that gave us rock classics like "Reeling in the Years," "Do it Again," "Rikki, Don't Lose That Number," "Aja,'' and ''Hey Nineteen'' has announced a 2014 summer tour.

They made catchy, hook laden pop songs, with great harmonies. The girls in the group looked great, too! The formula worked very well! Some of Abba's records outsold the legendary Beatles.

One of the last songs played today on the KTDY Polyester Power Hour was 'Keep On Smillin'.  Toward the end of the song, several people barged into the KTDY studio, including our General Manager Mike Grimsley, needing JayCee and I to clear up a debate over the lyrics of the 70's hit by Wet Willie.  After a long discussion, a talk with our resident expert Steve Wiley and an extensive internet search

It's going to be a rainy weekend in Acadiana and will be the perfect weekend to pull out your favorite rainy day song(s) and just stay in bed.  I'll let you hear mine, but you have to promise to let me know yours.

Avicii was forced to cancel his scheduled performance at this past weekend's Ultra Music Festival in Miami. The internationally famous Swedish DJ was hospitalized for what's reportedly a gall bladder ailment.
