The opportunity to be creative, in music, and every form of entertain- ment, has great potential here."

BMG CEO, Hartwig Masuch, said: "Janet is not just a supreme artist, she is a unique cultural force whose work resonates around the world. It is an honor that she has chosen BMG to release her long-awaited new album. We look forward to collaborating with her across every platform." Jon Cohen, EVP of Recorded Music, at BMG Chrysalis US, added: "Janet is a cultural icon and pop star like no other. The release of her long-awaited new album will undoubtedly be one of the musical highlights of 2015. It is an honor to work with her." Janet began her career at the age of seven when she first performed with her family at the MGM in Las Vegas. The worldwide breakthrough came with her third album,‘Control,’ which peaked at Number 8, on the Official Albums Chart, in 1986.

Do you recall, not long agoWe would walk on the sidewalk

Innocent, rememberAll we did was care for each other

But the night was warmWe were bold and young

All around the wind blowsWe would only hold on to let go

Blow a kiss, fire a gunWe need someone to lean on

Blow a kiss, fire a gunAll we need is somebody to lean on

Blow a kiss, fire a gunWe need someone to lean on

Blow a kiss, fire a gunAll we need is somebody to lean on

What will we do when we get oldWill we walk down the same road

Will you be there by my sideStanding strong as the waves roll over

When the nights are longLonging for you to come home

All around the wind blowsWe would only hold on to let go

Blow a kiss, fire a gunWe need someone to lean on

Blow a kiss, fire a gunAll we need is somebody to lean on

Blow a kiss, fire a gunWe need someone to lean on

Blow a kiss, fire a gunAll we need is somebody to lean on

All we need is somebody to lean onAll we need is somebody to lean on

Blow a kiss, fire a gunWe need someone to lean on

Blow a kiss, fire a gunAll we need is somebody to lean on

Blow a kiss, fire a gunWe need someone to lean on

Blow a kiss, fire a gunAll we need is somebody to lean on

This letter was sent to us by Mrs.Wendy Rajasekera, from Nawinna:“I am an oldie, and I went for the

Desmond de Silva concert, held inColombo recently, hoping to see thesinging legend reminiscent the past withsome of his popular English songs.

I knew Desmond as a singer of Englishsongs, performing with the Spitfires, etc.,and certainly not as a baila artiste.

I know of quite a few people who weredisappointed, seeing him perform mostlybailas, at his recent Colombo concert.

It was a baila session, from start to fin-ish.

The organisers should have remem-bered that we, in Sri Lanka, hear bailamusic 24/7. So why bring Desmond andget him, as well, to perform bailas!

I also thought he was too much glued tothe lyrics stand.

I hope if I do get the opportunity of see-ing Desmond perform again, he wouldgive us a balance of English and Sinhalasongs.”

They say, ‘when you are in love, it’s the

loveliest night of the year.’ And some

refer to December 31st as the loveliest

night of the year. Well, what would be your

pick!

I know, it’s too early to be talking about 31st

night activities, but when there is something

extra special cropping up, on December 31st,

then, I believe, it’s quite in order to make a big

sound about it.

The unhappy ‘noise’ we generally hear, as

the New Year approaches, is the high cost of

31st night dance tickets.

Many revellers find it tough to fork out big

bucks for just one particular night of fun.

With this in mind, two big names in the

music scene, Sohan and Corrine,

have decided to team up in

order to create the right 31st

night atmosphere, at a price

affordable to all.

In actual fact, they

say, tickets are being

priced at two for the

price of one, plus din-

ner and breakfast.

And, most importantly,

you would be having

two of the best 31st

night aggregations in action – Sohan & The X-

Periments and Corrine & Co.

The venue is going to be the Eagle’s

Lakeside Banquet & Convention Hall, with a

capacity to accommodate over 1000 guests!

The other plus factor is that this particular

venue has a mega stage, elaborate lighting, a

large dance floor, and is fully air-condi-

tioned - with a waterfront deck, over-

looking the lake.

There will also be entertainment, in

the form of Ronnie and Mariazelle,

with Kumar de Silva handling the pro-

ceedings.

From what I hear, this is going to be

one mighty mind-boggling 31st event.

And the whole family is welcome.

Okay, now what would you consider

to be the loveliest night of the year?

‘When you are in love,’ or a ‘New Year’s

Eve happening, with Sohan & The X-

Periments and Corrine & Co.!’
