Weekly Music Video

This week's music video is Edge Of Us by Natasha Hamilton, a former member of British girl group Atomic Kitten. She was one of the original members of the group, having replaced Heidi Range, who went on to become a member of Sugababes).

The group debuted with Natasha, Liz McClarnon and Kerry Katona in 1999 but after Kerry left, she was replaced by Jenny Frost (a former member of girl group Precious). 

I've just read today that Natasha recently announced that she's leaving Atomic Kitten after 26 years. I was a fan of the group, so it feels a bit sad to hear that, although they haven't released much music in recent years. But it's cool that Natasha is going solo.

While they haven't released a studio album since 2003's Ladies Night (or a compilation since Whole Again- The Best of Atomic Kitten in 2015), the group did bring out a single more recently- Southgate You're the One (Football's Coming Home Again. It was a reworked version for their hit 2001 single Whole Again,  and was released in July 2021, in relation to the UEFA Euro 2020 European football championship.

Since 2013, Atomic Kitten have mainly been doing live performances (as the duo of Natasha and Liz). Natasha has now decided to concentrate on a career as a solo artist. She has set up her own record label Morpho Music Group and plans to release her 1st solo EP soon. For more on Natasha's decision to leave Atomic Kitten, read her Instagram post about it: https://www.instagram.com/p/DA-sqP_NFse/

She launched her solo career back in June with her debut solo single Edge Of Us. And she went on to release her 2nd single You Don't Know Me in September.

Edge Of Us is a dance/pop track about realising that a relationship has come to an end and having the courage to move on. Natasha describes it as "a powerful anthem of resilience"

South Indian Videos

I've written several Bollywood posts this year but I don't feature South Indian music/films as much. So today I'm sharing some music and dance videos from Tollywood ( the Telugu language film industry) and Kollywood (the Tamil language film industry). :) Oo Antava Mawa- Pushpa- Dance Cover by Sonali First up is a dance cover of the song Oo Antava Mawa..Oo Oo Antava from the 2021 Tollywood film Pushpa: The Rise- Part 1 . I previously featured a dance cover of Oo Antava Mawa in a Dance Videos post in August last year. That one is by Rang De and you can see it here: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2023/08/dance-videos.html This cover is by Indian choreographer Sonali Bhaduria, from LiveToDance with Sonali and was uploaded in January 2022. It's a shorter video.   For more on Pushpa and to watch the official Oo Antava Mawa video, check out my Tollywood Videos Round-up 2 post from September 2023: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2023/09/tollywood-videos-round-up-2.html ...

Sorry there wasn't a 2nd post last week, I was going through a bit of a stressful time and didn't manage to get one finished. :) This week's video is I CONDEMN by Australian singer and rapper The Kid LAROI . It was the first single from the deluxe version of his second album BEFORE I FORGET. The original album was released in January and the deluxe version came out on 24th April. It contains 9 extra tracks, including  I CONDEMN and latest single PIECES. I wasn't aware that there was a deluxe version until I saw that some new songs had appeared on Spotify! I like BEFORE I FORGET and my favourite songs from the original version are ME + YOU, JULY,  COME DOWN and RATHER BE featuring Australian rapper and singer Lithe . One of my fave songs on the deluxe version is QUIT YOU, and I also like HOLD STILL and I CONDEMN. The newest single PIECES came out on out the same day as the album. I CONDEMN was released on 17th April. As with the songs on the original BEFORE I FORGET, it...

K-pop Comebacks- BTS

Sorry the 2nd post is later again this week, I didn't manage to get it finished yesterday. :) Last month I started a mini series called K-pop Comebacks, featuring the comebacks of K-pop groups during 2026. The first one was about BLACKPINK and you can see it here:  https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2026/03/k-pop-comebacks-blackpink.html Today I'm focusing on BTS (one of the most popular Korean boybands ). They debuted in 2013 and are a 7-member group, made up of leader RM, formerly known as Rap Monster (real name Kim Nam Joon), SUGA (Min Yoon Gi), Jin (full name Kim Seok Jin), j-hope (Jung Ho-seok), Jimin (Park Ji Min), V (Kim Tae Hyung) and Jungkook (Jeon Jung Kook). * Since then, the boys have been very successful, not only in South Korea but internationally. They are probably one of the most well-known K-pop bands worldwide.  In June 2022, the group took a break while the members served their  mandatory military service in Korea and have also been concentrat...
