Bob Dylan, the prominent American musician, released his thirty-sixth album today, February 3rd. This album, titled 'Shadows in the Night', includes ten songs from the timeless pop-classic repertoire that were originally performed by Frank Sinatra, the beloved American singer and actor. This collection comes three years after Bob Dylan's last album, 'Tempest'. In the album's introduction ceremony, Dylan expressed satisfaction at the opportunity to release these pieces, stating: 'I had long thought about doing this, but I didn't have the courage to approach songs that were written for 30 instruments and arrange them for 5. This is the key point of all these works. All pieces were recorded live with one or two takes; without a special recording room and headphones. I don't think I have reinterpreted these songs. They have been reinterpreted enough, perhaps even buried. What my group and I did was rediscover these songs. We brought them out of the grave and into the daylight.'

Ellie Goulding, the young British indie-pop singer who has won several prestigious awards such as the Brit Awards, recently released her latest single titled 'Love Me Like You Do', which is for the film 'Fifty Shades of Grey' and is based on a bestselling book of the same name, directed by Sam Taylor-Johnson, with its global release starting next week. Despite only being twenty days since its release, the enthusiasm of Ellie Goulding's fans and the popularity of the 'Fifty Shades of Grey' book have propelled this song to the top of the UK charts.

Lauren Henson, known by her stage name Indiana, rose to fame with her single 'Solo Dancing'. This electronic music singer and songwriter released her debut album titled 'No Romeo' this week, which includes six songs from her old and new works and promises the emergence of a new star in the music world.
