TODAY'S PICKS

DAILY TRACK: OneRepublic — "Apologize"Timbaland has given OneRepublic a huge hit with his remix of "Apologize," and a fine hit it is, too: a compellingly incongruous teen-romance melodrama, cutting Ryan Tedder's bland vocals with a stuttering R&B drum loop. Click HERE for more.

DAILY VIDEO: The Killers — "Don't Shoot Me Santa"

DAILY REVIEW: Ghostface — The Big Doe Rehab In the six years the Clan were on hiatus, Ghostface Killah was busy becoming one of the greatest MCs ever. The Big Doe Rehab isn't as distinct as last year's Fishscale, but it's close. Click HERE for more on the album.

ARTIST OF THE DAY: FATS DOMINO
