Tracey Thorn (Everything But The Girl) has announced the release of her third studio album Love And Its Opposite. The album will be released on May 18, 2010 in the US via Strange Feeling Records.

Love And Its Opposite was produced by Thorn and Ewan Pearson and features guest contributions from Hot Chip’s Al Doyle, The Invisible’s Leo Taylor, Jens Lekman, Cortney Tidwell and Los Valentinos’ guitarist Jono. She says the album is about “real life after forty.”

Thorn is offering the albums opening song ‘Oh, The Divorces!’ as a free download. Click here to download.

Sade tells the magazine:  “I’ve had my ups and downs in the years between these albums. That’s partly why I’m able to write songs that people in some way can hear. I express feelings, real feelings.” The April issue of Ebony is on newstands now.

In a recent interview with The Star, Barbra Walters said she has one regret, pressuring Ricky Martin to say if he was gay or not.

Walters told The Star: “In 2000, I pushed Ricky Martin very hard to admit if he was gay or not, and the way he refused to do it made everyone decide that he was. A lot of people say that destroyed his career, and when I think back on it now I feel it was an inappropriate question.”

Sharam, one-half of the now-on-hiatus Grammy Award winning duo Deep Dish, has released a new single called “Don’t Say A Word…” that features Anousheh on vocals via d:vision Records.

The track has been remixed by Sharam himself and Christian Smith and is taken from his album Get Wild. Check out the Radio Edit below.
