The second place was given to 2003’s Christmas Time (Don't Let The Bells End) by The Darkness, while The Pogues' Fairytale Of New York became third (originally recorded in 1984, it was included in chart due to digital reissue in 21st century).

Do They Know It's Christmas? was originally released during the same 1984 by a group of artists under the name Band Aid. Their aim was to raise money for starving people in Ethiopia. Composition was reissued several times by the different musicians – in 2004 it was Band Aid 20, which featured U2, Snow Patrol, Sugababes, Coldplay, Robbie Williams and many others.

Eminem was officially named the best selling artist of the 2000’s in USA – rapper has sold more than 32.3 million copies of his albums in 21st century. Eminem’s result greatly exceeds achievements by other artists, says a report from Nielsen SoundScan, an information organization that tracks sales of music and music video products in North America.

However, the top selling album of 21st century belongs to The Beatles – their 2000’s best hits compilation, named 1, was sold 11.499.000 copies. It is followed by N Sync’s No Strings Attached and Norah Jones’ Come Away With Me.

The top-selling single is Low by rappers Flo Rida and T-Pain (5.214.000 copies). Next are Lady Gaga and Colby O'Donis with Just Dance and Jason Mraz with I'm Yours.

New songs from Eminem’s upcoming release Relapse: Refill has leaked online. Two tracks have appeared on several file-sharing websites at the end of the previous week. The first one is Buffalo Bill – the song, which, according to rapper himself, was inspired by famous Silence Of The Lambs movie.

In second track, titled Elevator, rapper makes fun of his own career, saying that his main success is buying a house so big it even has an elevator. Rapper is also mocking Amy Winehouse on this track (although he mocked her earlier this year on the track We Made You).

Relapse: Refill is the reissue of his last studio album Relapse, which has hit the stores this spring. Upcoming release is set to feature seven entirely new songs, including composition Taking My Ball, earlier released as a track for DJ Hero videogame, and single Forever, recorded together with Drake, Lil Wayne and Kanye West.

Lady Gaga - ELLE’s January cover girl on stress, sexuality, and her romantic future. Interview:

On bodily reactions to stress: “I get all the symptoms of a pregnant woman. I get headaches, I get tired, I get blurred vision sometimes during a really intense session with [her creative team] the Haus.”

On a recurring theme in her work: “I feel that if I can show my demise artistically to the public, I can somehow cure my own legend. I can show you so you’re not looking for it. I’m dying for you on domestic television—here’s what it looks like, so no one has to wonder.”

On being a former waitress: “I was really good at it. I always got big tips. I always wore heels to work! I told everybody stories, and for customers on dates, I kept it romantic. It’s kind of like performing.”

On using her sexuality: “My album covers are not sexual at all, which was an issue at my record label. I fought for months, and I cried at meetings. They didn’t think the photos were commercial enough…The last thing a young woman needs is another picture of a sexy pop star writhing in sand, covered in grease, touching herself.”
