This Week In Music History: June 17-23

Elton John

Elton John

My “This Week In Music History” feature went out again this week over at the Spinner.

Elton John made the list because he played a show on short notice for a couple bottles of wine. Chris Brown made the list because he’s a bad human. And Phil Spector made the list because he’s a bad human, too.

“Call Me Maybe” singer Carly Rae Jepsen has a Glee-style dance choir past.

At least that’s what the guys from Faber Drive told Sarah on the red carpet at the MuchMusic Video Awards last week.

They know this how? Because one of them was in the choir with her in high school.

Electro-poppers Dragonette were at the MuchMusic Video Awards last week and Sarah spoke to them on the event’s red carpet.

As it turns out they’ve got a new album almost done, but they’re being kinda coy about the details.

Diamond Rings as Max Headroom

While Sarah was on the MuchMusic Video Awards red carpet this year she got to speak to electro-rocker Diamond Rings, who was debuting a new look he called “Max Headroom meets Klaus Nomi.”

Being big Max fans in this household we’ve been entirely amused ever since.

MMVA 2012: Carly Rae Jepsen Day

Sarah was assigned to cover the 2012 MuchMusic Video Awards on Sunday for AOL Music Blog.

This was mostly fine because it was basically a Carly Rae Jepsen coming out party and she’s relatively onside for the CRJ.

She was somewhat less onside for the latest crop of Much VJs (who are these people?), but whatcha gonna do? MuchMusic is firmly demographic television these days.
