"Hallo Spaceboy" is a song by the English musician David Bowie from his 20th studio album, Outside (1995). It originated as an instrumental by Reeves Gabrels called "Moondust", which Bowie and Brian Eno stripped down and used to form the final track. An industrial rock and electronica number influenced by the Pixies and Nine Inch Nails, the song contains a hypnotic sound, with synthesisers, loops and distorted guitar lines. Lyrically influenced by Brion Gysin, the song contains images of apocalypse and continues the androgynous conundrums of former Bowie songs such as "Rebel Rebel".

Dream Into It, Billy Idol's ninth studio album and first full-length record in over ten years, tells a rich and deeply personal tale of Billy's voyage from young punk rock dreamer to his reset as an MTV leather-gloved icon; then on to all his well-publicized hits, highs, lows, overdoses, and accidents; culminating with a devastatingly honest assessment of the price of fame and the wisdom accrued by getting your act together and embracing family. And even though Dream Into It tells a story it is also, on a track-to-track level, a completely satisfying old school/new school pumping, rocking punk/pop odyssey, as only Billy Idol and longtime guitarist/collaborator Steve Stevens can create, with the able assistance of producer Tommy English and features with rock mavens Joan Jett and Alison Mosshart.

A Bold Celebration of Romantics, Escapists, and Dreamers: Electric Light Orchestra's Eldorado Marries Rock and Symphonic Elements, Includes "Can't Get It Out of My Head" Mobile Fidelity's Numbered-Edition Hybrid SACD Plays with Previously Unheard Dynamics, Rich Tones, and Bountiful Colors Electric Light Orchestra leader Jeff Lynne did more than figuratively reach for the sky on Eldorado. Daring to be bold, and creating imaginative worlds that invite the listener to escape the mundane, the visionary composer-musician achieved a multidisciplinary fantasia and, in the process, a prog-rock landmark. Nearly 50 years later, the concept album's brilliance can be experienced like never before in cinematic fashion.

Eminem's 2005 greatest-hits compilation Curtain Call gathers all of Marshall Mathers's boffo singles together in one convenient place. One could raise the argument that all the Eminem you really need can be found on the perfect one-two punch that was 1999's The Slim Shady LP and 2000's The Marshall Mathers LP, but the hit 2005 "best of" set Curtain Call is a pretty good way to keep up with the irascible rapper's early post-millennial output. This easy-to-digest collection gathers together all of Mr. Mathers's best-known singles, from "My Name Is" and "Guilty Conscience" to "Stan" and "The Real Slim Shady" to the 8 Mile soundtrack banger "Lose Yourself" and The Eminem Show keeper "Cleanin' Out My Closet" and beyond. Three new tracks – "Fack," "When I'm Gone" and "Shake That" (featuring Nate Dogg) – are appended to keep things fresh, while the inclusion of the live performance of "Stan" Eminem did with saucy gal pal Elton John at the 2001 Grammy Awards is a nice touch at the end. Ya can't argue with the hits.
