One of the many great features of Italy is MTV. That might sound more like a taste of home than a European product, but it's not. Music TeleVision in Italy actually shows ...music, believe it or not. And it's not like America where there's music for an hour during the day (most of which is actually talking, and features only 30 seconds of each music video). Here it's always music. ..and 4 MTV channels. MTV hits, MTV Gold, MTV Brand new, and MTV pulse.
Hits and Pulse are almost identical. Brand new is very similar, and Gold is mostly music videos from the 80s and 90s. The only bad thing about watching so much MTV is seeing the same songs too often. Most overplayed song: "Umbrella" (cover) - Vanilla Sky. (check it out on YouTube. It's quite hilarious if you've seen the original by Rihanna)
Other Italian favorites seem to be:
Mika - "Relax, Take it Easy" and "Love Today"
Old Man River - "La"
James Blunt - "1973"
Negramaro - "Parlami D'Amore"
Tokio Hotel - "Monsoon"
Along with many songs i'd heard on the radio in the states before coming to Italia: "Pictures of You"; "Shut Up and Drive"; "Wake Up Call"; "When You're Gone"; "4 in the Morning"; a pair of Nelly Furtado's songs; and of course the original version of "Umbrella," which is only played every 10 songs, rather than every 5 songs like the cover.
(and i'm not exaggerating, at least in reference to the frequency at which the cover is played. Rihanna's original might be a little less often).
for the curious few, this is the song my title came from
....and apparently 4 backstreet boys are back together under the same name....

the best things about being capable to create mobile sites features through online service provider is that they allow you many options to
modify your website to meet your own personal or particular business requirement.
Second, the 12-button keypad is both functional and
well-designed. As the name Wireless Optical Notebook Mouse 3000 might suggest the mouse is optical
and has excellent readability as far as I've been able to see.
