Even those allergic to musicals may be won over by Once, a tender-hearted Irish romance with songs by Czech Republic–born Markéta Irglová and Frames frontman Glen Hansard. (The film's director, John Carney, actually used to play bass in the group.) The trick here is that Irglová and Hansard also play the leads; because their characters are shown busking, writing music, or rehearsing, the songs are smoothly integrated in the film. The overall acoustic mood won't surprise fans of the Frames--some tracks ("Say It to Me," "When Your Mind's Made Up") have even popped up on the band's albums, though the arrangements are more pared-down here, befitting the scruffy, street-musician setting. Being the lesser-known entity, Irglová feels like a revelation; she sounds a bit like a folkie Björk on "If You Want Me," and her song "The Hill" is downright heartbreaking. Irglová and Hansard had already made the 2006 album The Swell Seasontogether, so their collaboration here feels really organic--they sound particularly good together on the title track, for instance. Now that's the kind of magic you want from musicals. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

An obvious favourite from day one, 20-year-old Shayne Ward from Manchester dazzled the audience every week on Britain's biggest TV show The X Factor. The title track is backed by live versions of ''If You're Not The One' and 'Right Here Waiting'. BMG. 2006.

Shayne Thomas Ward (born 16 October 1984 in Clayton, Manchester) is a British pop singer of Irish background, who rose to prominence in the UK and Ireland after becoming the winner of the 2005 series of the talent show The X Factor.
Two years after winning The X Factor, Manchester-born Shayne Ward follows up his eponymous 2006 debut. While that album was predominantly composed of ballads, this release sees Ward "acting his age" with a collection of infectious, uptempo, RnB-influenced pop. Produced by pop supremos extraordinaire Maratone (Britney, Westlife, Celine Dion) and Ryan Tedder (J-Lo, Natasha Bedingfield, Leona Lewis), it includes the singles 'Breathless' and the no.2 double A-side hit 'No U Hang Up'/'If That's OK With You'.

The Pineapple Thief（以下简称TPT）来自于英国的Somerset，成立于1999年。乐队创始人Bruce Soord于同年发行了处子专辑《Abducting the Unicorn》，从而迅速建立起了忠实的乐迷基础，而这让Bruce觉得TPT或许可以坚持下去。
乐迷的赞扬和支持让Bruce回到了录音室，继续制作第二张专辑《137》。
期间，几大厂牌对TPT产生了兴趣。但这延误了专辑的发行，使得他们的第二张专辑在两年多后才姗姗来迟。然而，或许是第三张专辑《Variations on a Dream》里他们的长足进步，使得TPT的音乐为全世界更多的人所知悉。
2002年，Bruce决定成立一个乐队来把自己的音乐带给歌迷。乐队由他音乐上的密友组成：
贝斯手Jon Sykes，吉他手Wayne Higgins，键盘手Matt OLeary，鼓手Keith Harrison。Matt后离队，但Steve Kitch随后加入，负责演奏键盘。
乐队2007年签约于Kscope，隶属Snapper Music旗下。
histrion Higgins于2008年3月离开了乐队,但The Pineapple Thief作为四人乐队仍旧继续着。（以上资料参考Wikipedia粗略编译，因为没有找到合适的中文参考资料）
这张专辑《3000 Days》是TPT成立10年的精选合辑，于今年9月29日发行。

当Oasis面对媒体说，“从《Dig Out Your Soul》开始我们已经不在是一只Britpop乐队”时，所有人都想知道这回这支老牌的英伦乐队打算做出怎样的尝试和改变。但实际上他们永远无法摆脱Brit-pop的气息，或许这种气质早已渗透入他们的血液。
你只能说，Oasis可以变的不像Britpop，时代的变迁，音乐技术，音乐理念的变迁，你最多只能让自己少一些Britpop的束缚，而无法全部抛弃。当你听完《Dig Out Your Soul》后，你会发现Oasis又精进了不少，电子元素的活用，每一首歌都会给你来一个超级大震撼。歌曲旋律的复杂安排，丰富透彻的展示了Oasis的功力仍然是宝刀未老
