SHE'S been singing since she was eight, was signed at her first record company audition and has a voice that's up there with idols Aretha Franklin, Janis Joplin and Tina Turner.
Say hello to Glasgow's Carly Connor.
The only trouble is, she now lives in London, gets lonely there, so can't wait for her Highland dates coming at us over the next week.
THOUGH Abagail Grey's new single isn't a Christmas song it's got the gift of giving all tied up.
Released on Monday, the two-track single's called Winter & Icicles and for 24 hours fans can download it free from the band's website (www.abagailgrey.com).

WHEN Apollo 11 lands man on the moon to investigate an alien landing, they plunge the earth into intense danger and awake a robot power (the Decepticons) that threatens to turn all of humanity into slaves.
The peace-loving robots (Autotrons), led by metal-hunk Optimus Prime, are outnumbered, outmuscled and unlikely to succeed.

SICK of the endless loop about the Euro meltdown and the life or death revolutions that don't get anywhere?
Hello Egypt, where the military is now deliberately shooting protesters in the face to blindthem.
Maybe one way of counterbalancing the horror and the bad news is to let a few maverick minds loose on it to offer a much-needed twist.
It's working like a dream for I'M A CELEB, with what is actually a boring bunch of celebs, more OCD than living it large.

Twisting My Melon: The Autobiography by Shaun Ryder Shaun Ryder The Autobiography (Transworld, £18.99)
WITH the fallout of the literally sex n drugs rock n roll lifestyle every proper rock star craves laying Shaun Ryder pretty low a few years back, it's good to see him step on into a new phase.
Who'd have predicted 20 years ago that the Salford wild boy would have ended up a hero of reality TV show I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here?

Here's a couple of stocking filler DVDs for your favourite rocker and below that fans of the UK's big voice and international superstar songstress.

THIS DVD would make a perfect stocking filler for any Take That fan. It features the sell-out PROGRESS LIVE tour, which became the biggest tour in the UK, beating Michael Jackson's This Is It.
I was delighted to have a peak at this DVD, as I wasn't able to get tickets to see any of the live shows.

NO wonder when GLENN TILBROOK's trailer parked up outside the Ironworks, it was as if an old-fashioned magic medicine show had pulled up in town.
Sunday's show was full of wonders.
Magical stuff came from the start with support Steve Poltz and the first iPhone Siri song I've heard - sung in her rather emotionless robot voice, to taking away a live two-CD recording of the show just 10 minutes after the end.
Onstage in his top hat with his wonder emporium, from iPad touchscreen sound effects to funkbox backing, Glenn was a ringmaster of fun.
