Gwen Stefani is well known in the 'hood, and this week she has got one of her mans, Gav, to produce this song:

Stacey may have lost her act in Indie, but she has no intention of losing KT Tunstall tonight!

If MGMT continue using these song titles that don't easily translate into puns, then Dylan is going to find himself in trouble!

Brian Eno

Carlisle has this to say about Gabriella's latest performance:

'When I thought of Anthem I couldn't get past her most famous song. It's got that cool vibe that anthems have on top of lyrics which actually mean something, unlike quite a lot of songs these days. SO YEAH, TOTES AN ANTHEM.'

And we finish off tonight with Justin's act Lana Del Rey and perhaps the most fitting song for a theme ever:

National Anthem
