It’s a big week for music vids as some of Same Same’s favourite artists unleash new YouTube delights.

Witness zombie Blondie and bonkers Björk make long-awaited comebacks!

First up is fierce Beyoncé flipping her blurred bird to the camera in her Mad Max meets Cleopatra-inspired Run the World (Girls) clip. Meanwhile, the cover for her new CD ‘4’ was revealed today (shown at right).

Watch Beyoncé in fine fast-movin’, sing-talkin’, shoulder-twitchin’ form below:

Blondie’s been touring loads recently but hasn’t furnished us with new tracks for way too many years. Debbie Harry knows it’s time to reanimate the band’s corpse in style.

Bring on the undead as the 65-year-old borrows Dolly Parton’s wig and shows us Blondies still have more fun:

Icelandic goddess Björk eschewed pop over a decade ago, but still occasionally emerges with increasingly bizarre soundscapes. Since Volta bewildered us back in 2007, we’ve waited patiently to see what’s next.

Today we’re treated to tickling and teasing from the ever-unpredictable innovator. An almost-impenetrable revamped Björk.com website reveals a snippet of a new track, shown below. Several songs on her new album Biophilia were recorded using an iPad, and will be released as an app via iTunes in coming weeks.

Here’s the first taste:

Next up is a singer JoyFM pop music blogger Feed Limmy adores. “Her vocals really can’t be fucked with,” he advises. “They will drag your ass to a dark alley, slam you against a brick wall and assault you for every last penny you got.”

Jessie J wowed the crowd at Radio 1’s Big Weekend show in the UK a few days ago. Enjoy her soulful rendition of Nobody’s Perfect below:

Calvin Harris is back but the poor petal has come to the realisation his singing voice isn’t strong enough to carry an entire album. That’s where Kelis has come in, teaming up with the gentile giant on Bounce, the first single from Mr Harris’ new album.

Check out the clip:

And finally, a dancefloor filler downloaded last week that we think might just be the new When Love Takes Over. Alex Gaudino teamed up with Kelly Rowland for another stunner.

What a Feeling is below…

Reader, please stop here if you think there have been too many Gaga-related articles on Same Same lately and are a bit over it… cheers.

BONUS GAGA

Hello little monsters! No of course we can’t get through a new music article without mentioning our favourite poker-faced princess.

We’re not sure if Goldfrapp’s haunting remix of Judas is trying to pay tribute to, or destroy Gaga. Some love it, some hate it, some think it’s a demon rising to destroy the world this coming Saturday.
