The Killers premiered the second video for the song "My Own Soul's Warning" which premiered on August 20th on YouTube. Their brand new studio album Imploding the Mirage was officially released a day after. This new video for My Own Soul's Warning was directed by Michael Hill.
Instant Hit: Katy Gray - Hold Me Tight
"Hold Me Tight" was released by Katy Gray in 1985 and there is quite a veil of mystery to the singer's identity and rumours that claim that she was tragically killed by a disco ball in 1987. The lady on the cover artwork is believed to be Monica Stucci. Katy Gray never released another single and this certainly remains as an italo-disco tune of the highest calibre.
