Yes, it's come to this: Teyana Taylor's "Google Me" may be the first song that's wholly built around the singer touting her sheer number of search-engine results as a reason to wine her and dine her. So what does come up when you search "Teyana Taylor"? Well, among the more than 200,000 results—and that's with the quotation marks around her name!—there's her MySpace page (good!) and a blog post calling her "Teyana Taylor from My Super Sweet 16" (bad!) and a lot of mentions of this song (recursive!), The song is a sorta islands-tinged boast that's made even sillier by the fact that the omnipresent search engine may have one of the silliest Web site names around (take that, all you vowel-less Web 2.0 upstarts), meaning that it'll probably be inescapable by, oh, Thursday. Also: the odds on there being a Ron Paul remix of this song within the next month are about 5-1 at present. [Chris Picks]

The Guardian looks at which musicians are endorsing which Presidential candidates today, and delivers the shocking news that the lines of support aren't as cut and dried as R & B singers breaking for Obama and powerful women in music going to Hillary Clinton's side of the fence. Shocking! Perhaps almost as mind-bending as the fact that the piece's information on which musicians are stumping for Republican candidates is pretty thin, although the Guardian does share the somewhat dejecting news complete misinformation that former Nirvana bassist Krist Novoselic is supporting Ron Paul. More digging didn't reveal much else, though; the MySpace page Musicians for Ron Paul has Serj Tankian in its top 8 (he doesn't return the favor), and I came across a musicians for Huckabee blog hasn't been updated since August. At least he has the Nuge on his side. Anyway, a partial list of musicians who have made their Presidential preferences known is after the jump. Feel free to add your own in comments! More »
