Cee-Lo: "F-ck You" Video
Cee-Lo has unleashed the new video for his viral hit "F-ck You" (and not "Forget You."). The retro clip, equal parts Glee and Grease, follows Cee-Lo's journey from a lovelorn nerd to a "lady killer." Check it out above.

Brandon Flowers: "Hard Enough" (Featuring Jenny Lewis)

Green Day: "Cigarettes & Valentines" (Live)
At a Green Day concert in Denver this weekend, the band resurrected "Cigarettes & Valentines," the title track to the band's original follow-up to Warning, which was never released because the master tapes were stolen in 2003. Green Day rebounded from the loss by releasing American Idiot in 2004. [Punknews.org]

“The A Team”

Ed Sheeran | 2011

This debut track from the then-20-year-old British singer-songwriter has a dark story behind it. Sheeran says he culls songwriting inspiration from "viewing other people's situations," which, for the heroine in "The A Team," involves drug addiction and prostitution that began as a teen. Sheeran paints the woman's trials with haunting imagery such as "But lately her face seems/Slowly sinking, wasting/Crumbling like pastries." "I did a gig at a homeless shelter, [and the song] is about one of the women there. It's her story," he said.
