Neon Trees - Don't You Want Me

Neon Trees es una banda de rock alternativo de Provo, en el estado de Utah, con orígenes de Temecula, California. Fue formada inicialmente por los vecinos Tyler Glenn (voz, piano) y Chris Allen (guitarra), eventualmente agregando a Branden Campbell (bajista, voz) y Elaine Bradley (batería, percusión, voz). ​ A pesar de ser una banda bien conocida en Provo, la banda ha recibido una exposición en todo el país a finales de 2008 cuando fueron elegidos como teloneros de varias fechas de giras de The Killers. ​ Poco después, la banda firmó con la discográfica Mercury Records y lanzó sú primer álbum entero, Habits, en 2010. ​ Su primer sencillo "Animal" subió al número 22 en Billboard Hot 100 y número uno en Alternative Rock Chart.

 comenzaron tocando bajo el nombre de Neon Trees a finales de 2005 con los cinco miembros originales actuales. El nombre de la banda viene de los árboles de neón del cartel del restaurante de comida rápida In-N-Out Burger en California. La banda se volvió conocida en todo Provo y Salt Lake.

Lanzaron un EP llamado Becoming Different People en 2006 durante el tiempo de su primer tour en California. El EP presentaba canciones como "Snap the Flash", "Sister Stereo", "Modern Romantics". También grabaron otras canciones sin lanzar durante "Treehouse Sessiones" en 2006.

La formación de la banda pronto se vio reducida a cuatro miembros con Branden Campbell y Elaine Bradley uniéndose a la banda con bajo y batería respectivamente. En 2008, el batero de The Killers, Ronnie Vannucci Jr., escuchó a la banda tocar. Vannucci había estado en una banda llamada Attaboy Skip con el bajista de Neon Trees Branden Campbell. Más tarde los ayudó a firmar con el sello discográfico Mercury Records, qué fue anunciado a fines de 2008. Además, la banda fue votada como Banda del Año en 2009 por City Weekly, una publicación popular en Salt Lake City.​

A pesar de que tuvieron varias versiones independientes, la banda lanzó su álbum debut en Mercury/Def Jam Habits, el 16 de marzo de 2010. ​ "1983" fue elegido como el principal sencillo​ y poco después se presentó como el Sencillo Gratis de la Semana en iTunes en marzo de 2010. Presentaron la canción en Jimmy Kimmel Live el 23 de marzo de 2010, y The Tonight Show con Jay Leno el 14 de mayo de 2010 y Lopez Tonight el 30 de septiembre de 2010. Mark Hoppus de Blink-182 seleccionó Animal como su Elección de la Semana.​ La canción también ha sido presentada en un comercial para Las Vegas y remixado por el DJ Kaskade. La banda ha también lanzado un EP digital de cuatro remixes de la canción, uno por Tyler Glenn.

En 2010 la banda hizo un cover del éxito de Justin Bieber, "Baby".​ A lo largo de la primavera de 2010 la banda, junto con Mutemath y Street Drum Corps, abrieron para 30 Seconds to Mars en su gira Into The Wild. Posteriormente, encabezaron Bang The Gong Tour con Paper Tongues y Civil Twilight, se presentaron ante 7000 personas en Lollapalooza, y se dirigen a salir de gira con 30 Seconds to Mars en otoño.

Martika - Love...Thy Will Be Done

Marta Marrero (born May 18, 1969),  known as Martika  is an American singer-songwriter and actress. She released two internationally successful albums in the late 1980s and early 1990s, which sold over four million copies worldwide. Her biggest hit was "Toy Soldiers", which peaked at #1 for two weeks on the American chart in mid-1989. She is also known for her role as Gloria on Kids Incorporated.

Martika was born in Whittier, California, United States, to Cuban parents from Havana. She entered mainstream show business in an uncredited role as one of the girls in the 1982 motion picture Annie. This led to her being cast as Gloria on the long-running children's show Kids Incorporated as one of a group of neighborhood children who rise to local fame by singing staged productions at a corner malt shop. Once the second season began, she formally adopted the stage name of Martika Marrero before shortening it to just "Martika", which she has used ever since. Martika and many other Kids Incorporated cast members were featured in the musical numbers from the Mr. T motivational video Be Somebody... or Be Somebody's Fool! in 1984.

Following her role in Kids Incorporated and Be Somebody, Martika was signed by Columbia Records. Her first solo release was released only in Japan: "We are Music" was recorded to promote Sony cassette tapes in the Japanese market, where the song was released in 12", 7" and CD formats.

In 1987, Martika recorded a version of the Michael Jay/Gregory Smith song "Bounce Back", which included a music video which was aired on Entertainment '80, although it was not officially available.

Her first album, 1988's Martika (No. 15 US), spawned the song "Toy Soldiers", which she co-wrote with her producer Michael Jay and became a top-5 hit in the United Kingdom, Ireland, Germany, and Australia. In the US, "Toy Soldiers" spent two weeks at No. 1 in 1989. "Toy Soldiers" also went to No. 1 in New Zealand.

Two additional singles also went top 40 in the US: "More Than You Know" (No. 18) and "I Feel the Earth Move" (No. 25), which was a cover of Carole King's song from her album Tapestry. Both of those tracks also hit the top 20 on the US Dance charts and the UK Singles Chart. "I Feel the Earth Move" also reached the top 10 in Australia, New Zealand, and Ireland. A fourth and final single from the album, "Water", entered the lower regions of the UK and Australian charts.

The album was certified platinum in the UK in 1990, and double platinum in Australia.

In 1990, Martika co-wrote the track "Kiss Me Quick" with Michael Jay and Marvin Morrow. The track was recorded by freestyle/pop singer Alisha for her 1990 album Bounce Back, with Martika contributing backing vocals.

Martika was encouraged by her agent to combine her love of film and music by scoring soundtracks and, in 1990, she wrote and recorded the song "Blue Eyes Are Sensitive to the Light" for the soundtrack to the film Arachnophobia. The producers of the album did not like her vocals and so the song was re-recorded by Sara Hickman for the film. The song has also been recorded by Brazilian singers Deborah Blando (on her 1991 debut, A Different Story), Elba Ramalho and Frances Ruffelle.

In 1991, Martika approached Prince to do some new tracks. Among these was her second (and last) US Top-10 single, "Love... Thy Will Be Done", which also became a Top-10 hit in the UK and reached No. 1 in Australia. "Love... Thy Will Be Done" started out as a prayer written by Martika, and Prince then changed it into a song.

Her second album, Martika's Kitchen, peaked at No. 111 on the Billboard Top Albums chart. The title track received only minor airplay in the US, and reached No. 93 on Billboard Hot 100 chart. However, the album was a bigger success abroad, though on a lesser scale than her debut. It peaked at No. 15 in the UK Albums Chart, No. 9 in Australia, and spawned further hits with the songs "Coloured Kisses" and the title track, "Martika's Kitchen". "Temptation", another track from this album, was covered by Patti LaBelle on her album Burnin'.

Martika played the role of the lounge singer Dahlia Mendez in the cop show Wiseguy in 1990, opposite Steven Bauer who took over from Ken Wahl for the fourth and final season.

She eventually faded from the public eye in 1991/1992 after walking away from the music industry, due to burnout and feeling overwhelmed with the burden of fame.

In 1997, a greatest hits compilation album entitled The Best of Martika: More Than You Know was released.

During the 2000 explosion of Latin pop, Martika sang backing vocals on various projects and contributed lyrics to releases by other artists, although she failed to receive any major-label attention for herself. Instead she built martika.net in 2001, a website for her fans, and released a remix of a newly self-recorded song called "The Journey". She also recorded a track entitled "Monday" for a new solo album which the website stated was on its way. Eventually, however, her website was shut down, the album never materializing.

In 2003, Martika and her husband, musician Michael Mozart, formed the band Oppera. Adopting a Latin pop sound, she and Mozart released Oppera's debut album Violince, in 2004. Rapper Eminem used a sample of her biggest U.S. hit, "Toy Soldiers", for "Like Toy Soldiers", a track on his 2004 album Encore and featured Martika on the chorus of the track. In response, Martika's British greatest hits album was repackaged with its title altered to Toy Soldiers: The Best of Martika. A biography was added to the album insert reflecting the new Eminem sample, though it asserted that she had not released any albums since Martika's Kitchen.

Oppera released a self-titled second album in 2005. Martika promoted Oppera's release with a Borders bookstore tour.

In 2010, Martika, now going under the stage name Vida Edit, starred as Lolly Pop and co-produced a web-based television action program J8ded.

In October 2011, Martika stopped using the stage name Vida Edit and launched a new personal website. A year later, she announced an Australian tour, but it was cancelled. She performed in 2014 alongside Debbie Gibson, Samantha Fox, and Rick Astley at a HitParade Festival in Chile.

In July 2016, she was part of the "Totally 80s Tour" of Australia. The concerts included seven international 1980s acts, including Martika, Berlin, Limahl of Kajagoogoo, Paul Lekakis, Katrina from Katrina and the Waves, Men Without Hats and Stacey Q. For her performance at the tour she received strongly positive reviews from the Australian press.
