Alter the Ending
The band's sixth studio album, "Alter the Ending," is a perfectly blended concoction of acoustic melodies, graceful harmonies and powerful anthems wrapped around the story of a man trying desperately to save a failing relationship.

Help Me
For the lead single from his new album "Colour," Latin Bitman finds a talented co-writer and guest vocalist in fellow Chilean artist Francisca Valenzuela, who moans bleak lyrics that tint the song with an appealing despondency.

Equivocada
For the first single from her Nov. 17 live album "Thalía en Primera Fila" (Thalía in the Front Row), Mexican pop star Thalía delivers a moving ballad about a once-serious relationship that turned out to be a mistake.

Fantasia
Young crooner Ivan's "Fantasia" is a throwback to '70s and '80s grupero, a Mexican genre that spawned some of Latin music's most enduring acts and classic songs.

A Very Special Christmas Vol. 7
The younger pop artists featured on "A Very Special Christmas Vol. 7" will certainly appeal to the Disney Channel set, but the album's infectious classics and varying musical styles will also likely draw in their parents, too.

Do You Remember
The saying goes: If it isn't broken, don't fix it. That seems to be the strategy Jay Sean and his team employed by releasing "Do You Remember" as the second single off his "All or Nothing" album.

Play On

Bleach (20th-Anniversary Deluxe Edition)
Unlike Nirvana's more polished, alternative-leaning breakthrough, 1991's "Nevermind," the sludgy backwoods material on "Bleach" reveals the humble beginnings of a band that would lead a new musical movement and earn itself a place in rock'n'roll history.

The Fall
Norah Jones' fourth album, "The Fall," may surprise some of her die-hard fans, or at least disarm them a bit. During the 13-song set, Jones ditches the gentle piano-playing of her previous work and rises to a new level of creative boldness.

Rated R
Rihanna may have been a good girl gone bad on her 2007 album, but on her new one, she's a good girl gone bad-ass.

Dreamgirls -- Theater Review
Any staging of the musical "Dreamgirls" has a lot of history to contend with. The current revival, playing a limited run at the Apollo Theater before beginning a national tour and a possible return to Broadway, is unlikely to erase anyone's memories.

Funhouse
On Pink's biggest pop hits, art has almost always imitated life. It's no different on the title track and fourth single from her "Funhouse" album, which readdresses the singer's rocky relationship with husband Corey Hart—and thank goodness for that.

Christmas Cheers
The a cappella group Straight No Chaser's second holiday-themed album, "Christmas Cheers," may feature traditional songs like "We Three Kings," "O Holy Night" and "Jingle Bells," but the vocal ensemble puts its own spin on the tunes using a variety of genres to spread winter cheer.

A Cherry Cherry Christmas
