Listen To This: Just Because

A different spin on a modern classic!

Sia's Breathe Me is one of our favorite songs of all time.

Like a sundae drenched in hot fudge, this re-interpretation by UPENN's Off The Beat vocal group is just exquisite and scrumptious.

Enjoy it below. And, remember, Perez is your friend and hopefully this website warms you up a bit.

xoxo

Perez, you are the greatest. You keep it real and the People love you. You are one of the people Perez, albeit a soon to be really rich person–which could make you one of 'them'. But for now Perez, you are the People's choice

Dearest Perezzeleresst,

Thanks for the constant new music, it's much appreciated! Breathe Me has always been a favorite of mine and this version is great, too. Definitely puts me in a very special mood… Which apparently it has done to you, too!

Hugs,

omg i have been obsessed with this song all summer and this version is so amazing. i was involved with the barbershop group at my highschool and i wish we could have done this song but i graduated this year. wow go upenn that was awesome

That's lovely. Too bad most stuff out there isn't this sweet and soothing. It would probably be a better world if it were.

I like your site because it's a lot more friendly compared to other celeb sites where the posters do NOTHING but spew hate, especially when it's uncalled for. Reading whoever 'sucks' for the billionth time can get old very quick.

I love Perez but that song is a little to girly for me. I am way to butch for that or maybe just not secure enough in my manhood.

When the fuck are you losers gonna realize that it takes a while for your comments to show up.. and it really makes you look retarded when all your comment says is FIRST and you're actually #20.

anyway… the song is good, but not my preferred style of music… but thats ok. sometimes, perez, your music choices scare me a little bit, i've heard you say you love some stuff that is simply horrific.

Paleeezzz says – reply to this

AMAAYYZZZZING adaptation of the song…better than some of the shit college a cappella i have heard :-!
amber says – reply to this

59

I have to say, yes, this website "warms me up a bit"… it is one of my guilty pleasures. I have never commented before, but today I do just because this post has elicited a response. I enjoy the music posts; I love The Gossip and Dragonette now, courtesy of Mr. Perez - a "musical tastemaker." Like other posters have said….. stay true to your readers….and we'll keep reading….

They performed it live at my school (I was in a companion a cappella group), and it had much more resonance as a live performance. Whoever did their mixing/arranging needs to reevaluate.

That was beautiful:) I have no idea who this woman is, other than she's sexy sexy cute in her little striped 'pjs & pretty face:) The song was kind of haunting with the harmonies and layers and all? Kind of reminded me of Enya. Simpler but sweet sound to the core:) Thanks for the warm up, every little bit helps:) And with a smile, sandman

Criss Angel Is Recorded Threatening To Knock Out His Producer!

Whoa! Criss Angel is NOT messing around here!

The Luxor headlining illusionist was recorded having quite the verbal altercation with Joe Monti, one of his magic producers on Wednesday, during which Angel is heard threatening to knock him out - and now he's had a police report filed against him!

Give it a listen (above)!

Furthermore, Monti later said to authorities that he recorded the meeting because Angel has a history of bullying employees!

He explains:

“I wanted him to know how demeaning he was. I created 50-60 percent of the magic for ‘Mindfreak.' I have no reason to do anything vindictively but I draw the line on violence.”

Scary!

Violence is never the answer, folks!
