Portishead have released a new track for Amnesty International. Proceeds from the single will support the Charity's work with human rights.
While Beth Gibbons voice is wonderful as ever, the track isn't quite as good as songs from the band's recent album, 'Third'. Note: Just to clarify, the title doesn't refer to the type of tear that comes from your eye, rather a tear in a sheet of paper.

Bob Dylan has 'Christmas in the Heart'
About a month ago, I saw news popping up on certain music sites and blogs suggesting that Dylan was to release a Christmas album. I laughed at the very idea and put it to the back of my mind. He's Jewish for God's sake.
It seems I was wrong to laugh. Dylan's official website has confirmed that he is releasing a Christmas album. This worries me. I am concerned that the poor man may have lost it. Advertising cars, lingerie and releasing an album through a coffee store were all bad moves as far as I am concerned. But a Christmas album? This must put a considerable dent in his credibility. However, it is for charity. And man does he look and sound like he's having fun in this video.
Only Dylan could pull this off so well.
