Howard Ashman is, quite simply, one of the greatest and most influential lyricists of all-time.

Ashman, who initially left an immense impression not on the big screen but on stage from the late-1970s, through the mid-1980s, with colorful, idiosyncratic efforts like “God Bless You, Mr. Rosewater,” “Smile” and Little Shop of Horrors,...

Onetime bandmates Johnny Marr and Matt Johnson have recorded a cover of the Lovin’ Spoonful’s “Summer in the City.” The version maintains the original’s jaunty vibe, but with a chilliness that’s unique to Marr and Johnson’s music; Johnson recites the lyrics with detachment and Marr plays a soaring, bluesy solo at the end. Marr was a member of Johnson’s band, the The, from 1988 through 1994. The duo gave the song its premiere last month at a show at London’s Roundhouse; they recorded this version at the show’s soundcheck.

YouTube celebrated the year in internet pop culture with the 2018 edition of its Rewind video, featuring celebrity appearances from Smith, Noah, John Oliver, Adam Rippon, and Trixie Mattel, along with 100 of YouTube’s top creators, including Casey Neistat, The Dolan Twins, Lilly Singh and Markiplier.

The video celebrates pays tribute to the some of the defining moments and trends of 2018, in a video set against some year’s most popular songs, I Like It, Idol, In My Feelings, High Hopes, and Happier. Check it out here:

For the year, Kylie Jenner’s To Our Daughter, an 11-minute film detailing her pregnancy and the birth of baby Stormi, was watched over 53 million times on its way to becoming YouTube’s global #1 Top Trending Video of 2018.

Actor Will Smith vlogged all over the world (and jumped out of a helicopter over the Grand Canyon on a dare), garnering millions of views.

A whole year on YouTube has seemingly led up to this: the annual Rewind compilation, which is produced by digital studio Portal A, and which sees the video giant taking a look back at the creators, videos, and memes that had the biggest impact in 2018.

This year’s installment differs from past iterations in that YouTube gave creators and commenters control over the story line, it says. More than 100 top YouTube stars appear in the video, including Marques Brownlee, Liza Koshy, James Charles, Casey Neistat, The Dolan Twins, Ninja, Lilly Singh, and Emma Chamberlain. That marks a substantial trimming from the roughly 300 creators who appeared in last year’s video. The YouTube-native stars will be joined in YouTube Rewind 2018 by traditional celebrities like Will Smith, Trevor Noah, John Oliver, and Adam Rippon.

The video is set to a soundtrack helmed by Chicago-based production duo The Hood Internet, which specializes in...

Bruce Springsteen clarified his plans for 2019, saying he would not be touring with the E Street Band next year and would instead be focusing on finishing a handful of recording projects.

“Just a note to quell some of the rumors over here on E Street,” Springsteen said in a statement posted on Twitter. “While we hope to be back with you soon, the E Street Band won’t be touring in 2019. Before I go back to my day job, the year will be consumed with a break after our Broadway...

This article marks Part 12 of the Gold Derby series analyzing 84 years of Best Original Song at the Oscars. Join us as we look back at the timeless tunes recognized in this category, the results of each race and the overall rankings of the winners.

The 1973 Oscar nominees in Best Original Song were:

“(You’re So) Nice to Be Around” from “Cinderella Liberty”

“Live and Let Die” from “Live and Let Die”

“Love,” from “Robin Hood”

“All That Love Went to Waste” from “A Touch of Class”

“The Way We Were” from “The Way We Were”

Won and should’ve won: “The Way We Were” from “The Way We Were”

The title song from “The Way We Were,” composed by the brilliant, Egot-winning Marvin Hamlisch, alongside Alan and Marilyn Bergman, is a dreamy, haunting, immensely moving piece, performed splendidly by the incomparable Barbra Streisand. The film’s leading lady strikes just the right notes here,...

Pink Floyd are not exactly the ideal band for Beavis and Butt-Head to enjoy. Broadly speaking, their songs are way too cerebral, mellow and complex for the two animated teenagers that worship the likes of AC/DC and Metallica. It’s possible they’d dig heavier songs like “Run Like Hell” and “One of These Days” — and they’d certainly love the “We don’t need no education” chorus in “Another Brick in the Wall” — but if a song isn’t conducive to head-banging they pretty much don’t want to hear it.
