Checking On Ooh La La

New Music Alert: Two new adds yet again for Energy this week. Unfortunately, the station has chosen to add Beyonce's "Check On It" in its original form - no dance remix. This song has been #1 on the Hot 100 for what, five weeks now? After hearing it hundreds of times on other stations, I'm so over it. On a more positive note, the station has also added Goldfrapp's "Ooh La La." Talk about a unique sounding dance record. I've been toying with the idea of charting this song myself for the past few weeks, and hearing how great it sounds on the radio has probably sealed the deal.

Unwritten Kisses

New Music Alert: Two new adds again for Energy this week. First up, a very trancey Johnny Vicious remix of Natasha Bedingfield's huge pop hit, "Unwritten." This is not the Hani remix that most dance stations are playing, and to be truthful, it's fairly experimental by Energy's standards. I've heard this version on the air a few times, and I think it has a lot of potential to grow on me. The second add also goes out a bit on a limb for the station - "Kiss You" by Iio, whose two hits "Rapture" and "At the End" are a couple of the station's more popular recurrents.

Energy Sends Out an S.O.S.

New Music Alert: Energy gets smart this week and adds a much needed shot in the arm, in the form of Rihanna's "S.O.S. (Rescue Me)." Rihanna hinted at her dancehall roots with former Energy staple, "Pon de Replay," but her latest is full-on dance, wickedly incorporating the beat from Soft Cell's dance classic, "Tainted Love," as its foundation, and building from there. Finally, a song that Energy beats the competition on (Wild has tested this a bit but hasn't really jumped on it) and that sounds completely fresh on the airwaves.

A second add this week comes from Mary J. Blige, in the form of the Moto Blanco edit of "Be Without You." Mary J. is in fine vocal form, and the song has some good remixes, but this one in particular doesn't do much for me - it comes across sounding rather flat and uninspired on the radio.
