[NEWS] ADELE, KATY PERRY, CHRISTINA AGUILERA & MORE COMPETING FOR OSCAR NOMINATION

Adele, Katy, Christina Aguilera and Florence and the Machine are just some artists who are eligible to receive an Oscar nomination ahead of next year's ceremony.

'Rolling In The Deep' hitmaker Adele sung the soundtrack for the latest James Bond movie 'Skyfall', which was co-written by Adele and Paul Epworth and has been described as one of the best 007 themes in the franchise's 50-year history.

The Academy Motion Pictures will now be whittling down a list of 75 candidates to just five songs from films which have been released this year, and in addition to Adele, Katy Perry is also believed to be a song contender.

Katy's single 'Wide Awake' is reportedly being considered after it featured in the singer's autobiographical movie, 'Part of Me,' which followed the hitmaker as she embarked on her world tour last year.

Florence and The Machine are also in with a chance after the band's song 'Breath Of Life,' featured in blockbuster movie, 'Snow White and the Huntsman,' which starred Kristen Stewart.

Others in the running include Bon Jovi's Not Running Anymore,' Rick Ross' 100 Black Coffins', Arcade Fire's 'Abraham's Daughter' which can be heard in 'The Hunger Games' and Christina Aguilera's title track 'Casa De Mi Padre.'

However, it's Adele's 'Skyfall' which is expected to be the big contender, something which will no doubt be news to Daniel Craig's ears after he admitted to crying when he first the ballad.

"She has the voice and the tone that we wanted. I cried. From the opening bars I knew immediately, then the voice kicked in and it was exactly what I'd wanted. It just got better and better because it fitted the movie. In fact the more of the movie we made, the more it fitted," Daniel, who is the current Bond, told the Daily Star.

[NEWS] 'MOVES LIKE JAGGER' MOVES ONE MILLION COPIES IN THE UNITED KINGDOM

Among other 2011 hits in recovery mode is Moves Like Jagger, the incredibly successful Maroon 5/Christina Aguilera collaboration. Although it never reached number one, the track spent seven straight weeks at number two, and climbs 15-11 on its 20th consecutive week in the Top 20. More importantly, it sold 51,977 copies last week to secure its millionth sale. Ending the year on 1,043,562 sales, it thus finishes second in the 2011 rankings behind Adele's Someone Like You, which charges 49-27 this week, with a further 19,015 sales raising its final tally to 1,242,917.

[NEWS] 'MOVES LIKE JAGGER' MAKES ROLLING STONE'S TOP TEN IN 'THE BEST SONGS OF SUMMER'

It may not officially be fall until September 23rd, but by our count, summer is over. It was a time of crappy blockbuster sequels, massive U2 stadium concerts, Michele Bachmann's rise (and fall) as a serious presidential candidate, and earthquakes and hurricanes that seemed to foretell a coming apocalypse. Somehow we survived it all and now can look back with instant nostalgia.

10. Maroon 5 featuring Christina Aguilera, 'Moves Like Jagger'
NBC's The Voice seemed like another American Idol knock-off doomed to the same reality show dustbin where Chains of Love and Love Cruise now reside. Surprisingly enough, the show found a huge audience –and managed to reinvigorate the careers of judges Adam Levine and Christine Aguilera. They teamed up on this dance song that became a much-needed radio hit for both artists. It also joins the list of recent pop songs to reference Mick Jagger – including Ke$ha's "Tik Tok" and Kanye West's "Swagga Like Us."

9. Adele, 'Rolling In The Deep'
The biggest album of the year was supposed to be Lady Gaga's Born This Way. Then Adele came out of nowhere with her second album 21 and crushed everything in its path. The LP was propelled by the single "Rolling In The Deep," which has been inescapable all year. It's been on Gossip Girl, Glee and pretty much every other show on television. "I love seeing Lady Gaga's boobs and bum,"Adele told Rolling Stone in April. "I love seeing Katy Perry's boobs and bum. Love it. But that's not what my music is about. I don't make music for eyes. I make music for ears."

8. Good Charlotte, '1979'
No, Good Charlotte didn't release a cover of the Smashing Pumpkins' "1979" this summer. This is an original song that looks back nostalgically on a simpler time. "The Clash was on the radio," Joel Madden sings. "And Mom and Dad were still in love in 1979. It was a good good year." He also references "Heart of Glass," "Rock & Roll High School" and "Dream Police." Madden was born in March of 1979, so the dude must have a pretty good memory.

7. Lady Gaga, 'Edge of Glory'
Lady Gaga wrote this song about her grandfather dying, but after recruiting Clarence Clemons to play sax on the song it's become an unlikely tribute to the the Big Man. He played the track with her on the finale of American Idol and shot a video for it shortly before he died. "She's the real deal," Clemons told Rolling Stone in February. "All the craziness and stuff, there's a purpose to all of it. She has no boundaries . . . It's a day I'll never forget. I always wait for Bruce to call and say 'come do this' and it's real exciting for me. I never saw this happening, though."

6. Red Hot Chili Peppers, 'The Adventures of Raindance Maggie'
The Red Hot Chili Peppers had a lot to prove when they released the first single from I'm With You. It was the public's first look at new guitarist Josh Klinghoffer, who has the incredibly difficult task of replacing the mighty John Frusciante. The debut single "The Adventures of Raindance Maggie" charted all over the world, and hit Number One on the American Rock Songs chart – proving the band does have life after Frusciante. For the video, they took a page out of the Beatles and U2 playbook by playing on a rooftop. Unlike those previous two rooftop shoots, nobody tried to shut them down.

5. Panic! at the Disco, 'Ready to Go (Get Out of My Mind)'
Panic! at the Disco have had a rough past few years. Their 2008 LP Pretty. Odd was a drastic change from their emo roots, and they even dropped the exclamation mark from their name. Fans were pissed, and they just got angrier when half the band left the group in the summer of 2009. On their newest album they brought back the exclamation mark and their old sound. What remains of their fanbase is very pleased.

4. Coldplay, 'Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall'
Coldplay are one of the last rock bands that can reliably release a big hit single in advance of every new album. Hell, even U2 can't pull that off anymore. Coldplay say that their upcoming Mylo Xyloto is inspired by 1980s American graffiti, and the video for "Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall" certainly plays into that theme. It remains to be seen whether Coldplay can keep up this momentum with their next few singles from the LP.

3. Foo Fighters, 'Walk'
During Nirvana's heyday few people predicted that the drummer would pull a Phil Collins and become a superstar outside of the band, but that's exactly what he's done. The Foo Fighters just seem to get more and more popular. As big as they are here in America, they're even bigger in Europe. It's truly remarkable. Their new album Wasting Light was cut in Dave Grohl's garage with Nevermind producer Butch Vig. The single "Walk" was inspired by Dave Grohl's attempts to teach his daughter to walk.

2. Foster the People, 'Pumped Up Kicks'
"Pumped Up Kicks" sounds like a sugary pop song, but when you stop and listen to the lyrics it's clear the song is about a psychotic kid who pulls a gun on the popular kids at this school. It's sort of a "Jeremy" for a new generation. Recorded by the Los Angeles indie pop band Foster the People, "Pumped Up Kicks" is one of the surprise hits of 2011, rising to Number Three on the Billboard Hot 100.

1. Britney Spears, 'I Wanna Go'
This wasn't even close. Britney won by a landslide, which shouldn't come as any surprise. The woman works with the most successful pop songwriters in the industry. This track was co-written by Swedish songwriting legend Max Martin – the man behind everything from "Since U Been Gone" to "I Want It That Way" to Britney's first hit "...Baby One More Time." He's a 40-year-old Swedish guy, but he knows exactly what American teenage girls want to blast in their cars. The video for "I Wanna Go" starts with Britney giving a press conference, which is hysterical because she's one of the least media-accessible singers in the world. It's easier to get a sit-down with Bob Dylan than it is with Britney.

[CHARTS] 'MOVES LIKE JAGGER' LANDS IN AT #2 ON THE HOT 100 & JUMPS UP TO #8 ON RADIO SONGS

Following an acclaimed performance of the song on the MTV Video Music Awards Aug. 28, Adele's stark ballad "Someone Like You" bounds to the top of the Billboard Hot 100, vaulting 19-1 with dual Digital and Airplay Gainer honors.

"Like" leaps 11-1 on Digital Songs with 275,000 downloads sold (up 191%), according to Nielsen SoundScan. On Radio Songs, the track blasts 42-19 with 46 million all-format audience impressions (up 59%), according to Nielsen BDS.

The honors continue to pour in for Adele, as "Like" is her second Hot 100 No. 1, after "Rolling in the Deep" spent seven weeks at the summit beginning in May.

"Deep," which won Adele three trophies at the VMAs, and "Like" appear on the singer/songwriter's sophomore album "21," which, with 3.3 million copies sold in the U.S. since its February release, ranks as 2011's top-selling set.

Similar to "Deep," "Like" is receiving multi-format radio support, lifting into the top 10 on the Adult Pop Songs airplay chart (12-10), while advancing 6-5 on Triple A; 18-16 on Adult Contemporary; and, 24-19 on Pop Songs.

"Like" dethrones Maroon 5's "Moves Like Jagger," featuring Christina Aguilera (1-2), after the latter track ruled the Hot 100 for a week. While "Jagger" slips 1-3 on Digital Songs (207,000, down 5%), it jumps into the top 10 (11-8) on Radio Songs (86 million, up 22%).

[NEWS] CHRISTINA AGUILERA'S BRIT OF MAGIC

SUPERSTAR songbird Christina Aguilera is ­plotting a new album and wants a touch of British magic.

The 30-year-old, who has been focusing on her role as a judge on US talent show The Voice, is planning a comeback based on Adele’s record-breaking 21 collection.

London singer-songwriter Talay Riley has penned Xtina a couple of tunes to fit the bill.

Talay told me:

Christina gave us a personal brief. It was like a letter saying what she wanted to achieve with her next album. She wants this album to be the one which touches people and reflects all the personal experiences she’s been through in the last few years, like motherhood and divorce. Basically she wants songs that are as big as Beautiful. Christina wants to make another Stripped and sees Adele as her new inspiration. I’ve written one song for her which is a real track put to a four-by-four beat. It’s like a better version of Leona Lewis’s Collide.

Talay, 21, is one of the hottest pop scribes on the scene. He’s co-written Jessie J’s next release Who’s Laughing Now and his own next single, the gorgeous Make You Mine, drops on August 29.

[NEWS] THE TOP 5 BLUE-EYED SOUL SINGERS OF THE NEW GENERATION

1. CHRISTINA AGUILERA

If there were ever any doubts that Christina should top this list, she set them to rest with her performance of James Brown’s “It’s a Man’s World” at the 2007 Grammy Awards. Even the Godfather of Soul would have been proud. One reason she’s so powerful, Christina sings with her entire body. She feels and enlivens the songs with every fiber of her being. Interestingly enough, she’s the only American in the bunch.
