It's Whitney vs. Britney in X'mas 2008

London (ANI): Now that Britney Spears seems to have got her act together, the singer is heading for a head to head album battle with pop's ultimate fallen diva - Whitney Houston. After the poor reception for her most recent album Blackout, label bosses thought their wayward artist had blown it. But impressive demos from recent studio work re-ignited their faith and they are confident she can crush ageing Whitney in a titanic Christmas LP scrap. "Britney has been on fire in the studio of late. During recording sessions for the last album she was consumed by her chaotic private life," The Sun quoted a label source, as saying. "But she is determined to make a triumphant comeback. Top brass have been amazed by the quality of tracks they've heard. "Whitney is set for another relaunch at the same time later in the year. They're determined Britney will come out on top," the source added

De Taali Music Review

Even though there was a six month gap between Om Shanti Om and http://entertainment.oneindia.in/music/reviews/2008/Tashan, it has been an array of musical releases for Vishal-Shekhar. Bhoothnath followed http://entertainment.oneindia.in/music/reviews/2008/Tashan and now De Taali has also hit the stands. After a very good (http://entertainment.oneindia.in/music/reviews/2008/Tashan) and a plain average (Bhoothnath) affair, one has good expectations from De Taali primarily because the film boasts of a young and energetic cast of Ritiesh Deshmukh, Aftab Shivdasani, Ayesha Takia and Rimi Sen. Since the quartet has usually been associated with films comprising of music that is fun and peppy, one expects the same from De Taali as well, especially with Vishal Dadlani himself doubling up as the film's lyricist. Well, the expectation is indeed met as De Taali turns out to be an enjoyable album! 20 seconds into 'Everybody Put Your Hands Together' and you can find your neck swaying with the song's beats.
