About Our Star Comedian
Born in Boston on December 7, 1969, O'Neal got his start on the stage and in the early '90s and moved to Los Angeles to shoot for the big leagues. Eventually, his stand-up career resulted in smaller roles in films, as well as the HBO comedy special "One Night Stand."
O'Neal had been a staple in the comedy world for years -- and performed at the "Comedy Central Roast of Charlie Sheen" back in September.  O'Neal was a regular guest on the "Opie and Anthony" radio show and appeared on several TV shows such as "Chappelle Show," "The Office," and "Tough Crowd with Colin Quinn."
Just this past September, he was one of the many comedians who poked fun at Charlie Sheen during his "Comedy Central Roast." He also hosted VH1's "Web Junk 2.0" back in 2006. Earlier this year, his Comedy Central special "Elephant in the Room" premiered on the network.

The one who used to make us laugh passed away but hopefully the laughs will keep him with us in our memories forever after.

[Note - Go here for updates on CMA 2011]


Share of the mTalk!

All My Days - Alexi Murdoch
The song which was on everybody's mind and tongue when they came out of the theatres after watching the popular movie "Real Steel." Many people noticed the song after the movie including me. I think everyone of you whoever have seen the movie would wanna check out this song and the artist. It's really appreciable

















The Country Rock worth checking out:
[Note - Use the links on the Song/Artist's Name for Downloading/Listening Music] 

The one country rock song on popular list these days and on top of the charts. Blake Shelton's live performance on this song was liked the most by the people on CMAs 2011.
2. I Want You - Andrew Allen
This artist hasn't been featured much on our television sets. But anyone who heard his last record "Loving You Tonight," almost fell in love with the song. That record has more than 3 million views on the YouTube. And now the new one is out. Which i personally would like to recommend for everyone to listen.

Just in case if you don't know then he Jason Aldean has been awarded with the year award at CMAs 2011.



It was one of the most awaited songs of the year before it's release. This song has been on Billboard's top 10 charts for 19 weeks and its still there on second position with the loss of one.
 
6. Baggage Claim - Miranda Lambert

 
Its one of those awesome songs with not much popularity. I have to tell you to watch the beauty recorded in the video. The video has been shot in Colorado. The music is as good as the video is.
Kellie Pickler was one of the participants of American Idol in 2008. She's considered as one of those participants of American Idol who din't win but are known for giving hits like Jennifer Hudson, David Archuleta, Clay Aiken and Chris Daugherty. Kellie was placed sixth in the American Idol 2008 but she has rwo two albums Small Town Girl and Kellie Pickler who have been on top 10 on Billboard 200. And on country chart, both have been placed at #1. And here is her new release now.
 
The song released after Brantley's Weeklong Retail Tour and the one landing directly on the #2 on the country charts and #4 on billboard. After Being on #4 on past 31 weeks, It's now #3 on Billboard 200. Thats called Kickin' in the sticks.



 
13. You - Chris Young




 17. Where I Come From - Montgomery Gentry
Montgomery's first single from thier new album "Rebels On Run."
Long way to go is Alan's first single with the EMI Records. We can call it his debut album with EMI Records.


20. Shut Up Train- Little Big Town


It's the American Idol Season 10's winner with two releases. "I Love You This Big" is his first released music video three months ago and "The Trouble With The Girls" is his second release a month ago.

Storm Warning, Not a recent release but one of those songs who are worth listening to. And as you know, I only share those songs with you who're worth liistening. So check out every single one of 'em.

mTalk! #Adele



Share of the mTalk!
Late Amy Winehouse's Last Record with Tony Bennett - Body And Soul  



Adele
Adele - The Artist, The Writer and The Singer whose work, songs, lyrics and bewitching voice is truly known to be a Sound Of A Solid Broken Heart.  The one known for taking the perfect steps towards the success since the beginning. The one obsessed with the voices since she was four.

Past - The Creator Of The Future
The British Singer Adele Laurie Blue Adkins was born in England. Tottenham, London to be exact on 5th May, 1988. She started singing at the age of four. But her career basically started when she with her mother moved to West Norwood, South London at the age of 11 where she got her inspiration from the R&B Singers like Alliyah, Destiny's Child and Mary J. Blige.
At the age of 14 she saw Pink performing live at Brixton Academy which she claims as the most defining moment of her life. Her words about the singers who're her inspiration - "I listen to Etta James to get a bit of a Soul, Ella Fitzgerald for my Chromatic Scales and Roberta Flack For Control"


Graduation
She Graduated from The Brit School Of Performing Arts & Technology in Croydon in May, 2006. The School has produced Katy Melua, Amy Winehouse, Leona Lewis, Kate Nash, The Kooks, The Feeling and New Stars Katie B. and Jessie J. She gives alot of credit of her current success to the school. What's really interesting is that she was a classmate of the popular singers like Leona Lewis and Jessie J.

The Beginning of Career - Hometown Glory [The Debut Song/First Record]
She came in contact with the XL Recordings after a success of the three-song demo posted on MySpace by her friend during the graduation. Nick Huggett at XL recommended Adele to manager Jonathan Dickins at September Management and in June 2006 Dickins became her official representative. September was managing Jamie T at the time and this proved a major attraction for Adele who was a big fan of the British singer-songwriter. Huggett then signed Adele to XL in September 2006. In October, 2007, Adele's First Record "Hometown Glory" was released. She became the first recipient of the BRIT Awards Critics' Choice and was named the number-one predicted breakthrough act of 2008 in an Annual BBC Poll of Music Critics, Sound of 2008.


19 (2008) and Chasing Pavements

The Album Songs (Go for the links on the Songs' Name for Downloading/Listening MP3s):


11. My Same

12. Tired

The album "19" was named after her age when Adele recorded the the album. The Album had the song "Hometown Glory" included too. However, she released "The Chasing Pavements" on 14th January, 2008 which was two weeks before the realease of the album "19" which got released on 28th January, 2008. The song held Second on the UK charts for four weeks. Adele got nominated for the Mercury Prize Awards 2008 and Q Awards for the Best UK Female for this album "19". She won a Urban Music Award for Best Jazz Act.


US Tour And The Success
Adele signed up a deal with Columbia Records and XL Recordings in March 2008 and started her world tour "An Evening With Adele" (May 2008-June 2009). She gave an appearance as a musical guest at the show "Saturday Night Live" on 18th October, 2008 which also had the other expected guest US vice presidential candidate Sarah Pallin.


Adele gave her performance with "Cold Shoulder" and "Chasing Pavements." The show earned it's best ratings with 17 million viewers and the next day Adele's "19" topped the iTunes. It was ranked 5th on Amazon.com.  The album reached number 11 on the Billboard 200 as a result, a jump of 35 places over the previous week. The album was certified as gold in February 2009 by the Recording Industry Association of America. By July 2009, the album had sold 2.2 million copies worldwide.
In 2010, Adele received a Grammy Nomination for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance for "Hometown Glory". In April her song "My Same" entered the German Singles Chart after it had been performed by Lena Meyer-Landrut in the talent show contest Unser Star für Oslo (Our Star for Oslo), in which the German entry to the Eurovision Song Contest 2010 was determined. In late September, after being featured on The X Factor, Adele's version of Bob Dylan's "Make You Feel My Love" re-entered the UK Singles Chart at Number 4. During the 2010 CMT Artists of the Year special, Adele performed a widely publicized duet of Lady Antebellum's "Need You Now" with Darius Rucker.


21 (2011)
The Album Songs (Go for the links on the Songs' Name for Downloadin/Listening MP3s):


Now who hasn't heard about the song "Rollin in the Deep?" Im sure many of you have. This is the second album based on her age when she recorded it. The album got released on 24th January,2011 in United Kingdom and 22nd February, 2011 in the United states. The song/Album topped the charts in 18 countries including United States. It sold 2.5 million copies and 992,000 digital copies in United States. The first single, "Rolling in the Deep" reached number 1 in 8 countries including the Billboard Hot 100. The song has sold 4.825 million digital copies in the US by 21 August 2011, the most digital copies of a song ever sold in a single year in the US.
In the United Kingdom, where the album also hit the top spot, it sold 208,000 copies in its first week making it the Biggest-Selling January Release in five years. In mid-February 2011, after a performance at the Brit Awards, the album track "Someone Like You" went straight to number 1 on the UK Singles Chart, while the album "21" also remained at number 1. According to the Official Charts Company, Adele is the first living artist to achieve the feat of two top five hits in both the Official Singles Chart and the Official Albums Chart simultaneously since The Beatles in 1964. It is the first time that one act has held the top two places in the UK Albums Chart since The Corrs in 1999. The album spent 11 consecutive weeks at number one, before being knocked off the top spot by Wasting Light by the Foo Fighters. Next week, though, she regained the number one spot and was holding in for five more weeks in a row. In July "Someone Like You" single set another record, having become the first song to sell over a million copies in the UK this decade. In September the album sold over 3 million units and Adele became the first artist in UK music history to hit 3 million sales of an album in one calendar year. "Someone Like You" became her second consecutive number-one single on the Hot 100 making Adele the first ever British female singer to spawn two consecutive number one singles from the same album. It also made Hot 100 history by achieving "the biggest jump to No. 1 in the chart's 53-year history that wasn't spurred by the release of a single. The song became the first strictly voice-and-piano ballad to top the Billboard Hot 100.


The Throat Surgery Controversy
A few weeks ago, we heard about Adele undergoing a surgery due for her Throat Homerrage. Which is why she had to cancel two of her tours as she was afraid that if she doesn't take an extended rest for the surgery then she might damage her voice forever. The popular magazine "Rolling Stones" Provided more information about it that she was suffering from the beginning growth of Polyp which leads to the bleeding in the vocal chords.
But now the singer has undergone the surgery and is feeling well. She is already prepared for her next album with the seven songs written which she promises to be more intimate. She aims for mastering her albums all by her own in the future which she says may take some time. Well, we hope for her brighter future.
