Shelley/The Submarines/But Enough about Me
Shelley
Shelley is a model, actress and singer...well now theres a surprise...plus she's a choreographer and a belly dancer...ok slightly more surprised.....and also a runner up in Miss Ireland..hmm ok, impressed. As well as all this she writes her own songs.
Her MySpace site chirps on about her something like this:
Shelley was introduced to Religion Music 3 years ago when she was runner up in Pop Stars and Simon Cowells favorite. She began recording with Religion Music after turning down an offer from Louis Walsh to be in UK pop band Hear Say.
Ok enough already I was sold on the whole package based on this song alone, its great! Go to her MySpace site and hear 'hit it' , there is a brilliant sample of Serge Gainsbourg's Jetaime that needs to be heard. take me there
Belly dancing huh? hmm...
The Submarines
Peace and Hate is what can be described as a 'failed break up song'. The Submarines are Blake Hazard and John Dragonett (or Jack Drag as he is better known) they both wrote songs and toured together eventually forming a relationship that would last four years until they split up.
Post split they both carried on writing songs and having success independently until the realisation struck that the songs they were writing separately were in fact about each other. They decided to collaborate again and their debut album 'Declare A New State' is the result, with songs such as 'Peace and Hate' , written and sung jointly by them both, leading to a reunion of the relationship.
A great little story and the music is bittersweet perfection too.
"The whole theme of the record is spoken pretty plainly in 'Peace and Hate," says Hazzard, "That conflict is inevitable but you live with it. That you still love each other, so you move on. You declare a new state."

Jancee Dunn - But Enough about Me
‘But enough about Me’ is Jancee's tale of how - thanks to a spot of 'demented kismet' and despite a really bad perm - she landed her dream job at Rolling Stone magazine and soon found herself sharing fudge recipes with Loretta Lynn, dancing onstage with the Beastie Boys, turning down well-meaning offers of heroin from Scott Weiland and discussing the joys of Spam with Dolly Parton. It’s an insight into the world of the celeb seen through the eyes of a girl who found herself in their company almost entirely by accident, a quirky read full of wonderful character insights.
Having occasionally been privy to the celeb world myself and the mundane elements that are often passed of as glamorous I’m quite intrigued to read Jancee’s memoirs.
