Scroll down for today's multiple Buble announcements, plus news on the next Gorillaz album, new Kaiser Chiefs, a good-as-new Oasis video, the Kanye West pop-up shop coming to London and a children's album from Evanescence singer Amy Lee.
Stop back here tomorrow for all the updates as and when they happen...
Michale Buble's got a new album AND a movie on the way
Following in the footsteps of Lady Gaga yesterday - triple-threating with a movie, album and cookery book - our favourite classic crooner Michael Buble has announced that he'll be releasing his seventh studio album Nobody But Me on 21 October.
Not only that - the lead single is coming tomorrow (scream!).
And if that wasn't enough, Michael will be releasing his first movie - Michael Buble Tour Stop 148 - on September 25. It's a documentary-style film featuring tour footage and plenty of behind-the-scenes access.
We'll bring you the single Nobody But Me tomorrow. It was co-written and co-produced by Buble and brace yourselves, as it's said to "capture the magic" of his other original hits.
New Gorillaz album will feature De La Soul and Snoop
The Guardian

Yesterday we brought you the latest track from De La Soul - Greyhounds featuring Usher - one of a host of collaborations on their forthcoming album alongside Little Dragon, Snoop Dogg and Damon Albarn.
Well it seems De La Soul have paid the favour right back again, and - along with Snoop - will feature on Albarn's next Gorillaz album.
The hip-hop legends previously featured on Feel Good Inc, the lead single from Gorillaz' second album Demon Days, released back in 2005.
After an elusive reveal of its title only, Lady Gaga has now given us some tit bits of information about her forthcoming single, Perfect Illusion.
Speaking at iHeartRadio's Music Summit in New York, she revealed that the song is a collaboration with super-producer Mark Ronson and Tame Impala's Kevin Parker.
"The song is about modern ecstasy... We found our sweet, simple, ragey way of saying it," she explained during her appearance.
"I get this sick adrenaline rush every time I hear it.”
Monsters, get ready!
Usain Bolt turns music video star
We all know that Usain Bolt is an excellent mover. And with his retirement from athletics on the horizon, maybe a future as a music video dancer is the obvious next step?
London production duo Arch Birds have revealed the video for their debut single Be The Fastest, and it features the fastest man on the planet, alongside the vocals of Vanessa Haynes.
The song was inspired by Bolt, and filmed in Jamaica. I guess the big question now is whether this track will Be The Fastest to the top of the charts...
Here's today's blast from the past. Let's go back to 1997 and have a watch of Oasis' music video for the anthem D'You Know What I Mean?
Notice a difference? That's because it's been reworked in HD with a bit of previous unseen footage too.
The video's directors Dom & Nic said of the experience...
Quote Message: The 35mm film from the original shoot had been stored safely in the Oasis archive, which meant we could go back to the original film to re-master and recreate the video. This was the film equivalent of finding the band’s long lost studio master tapes in pristine condition. During the process of re-editing we discovered even more powerful performance moments from the band, more epic helicopter shots and a new pacing with greater drama and energy than before.

Kaiser Chiefs share new track and announce tour
Danny NorthCopyright: Danny North
Kaiser Chiefs have shared a new song from their forthcoming album Stay Together, which is due in October.
It's called Hole In My Soul and - like lead single Parachute - has a definite Pet Shop Boys vibe and poppier sound, not least because it was produced by Brian Higgins (Pet Shop Boys, Xenomania, Girls Aloud) and mixed by Serban Ghenea (The Weeknd, Rihanna, Beck, Taylor Swift, Justin Timberlake).
Paul McCartney fans hungry for a new album shouldn't have too long to wait... the singer's just confirmed he's back in the studio working on a new album, after signing a new worldwide record deal with Capitol Records.
Macca seems very happy about it too, as he and the label have history...
"This is genuinely exciting for me," he said in a statement. "Not only was Capitol my first US record label, but the first record I ever bought was Gene Vincent's Be-Bop-A-Lula on the Capitol label."
Expect to hear more from Macca's back catalogue soon too, as they've got plans in the works to be announced next year.
That's Queen's Roger Taylor. And he's announcing that The Queen Extravaganza, the touring band he created with Brian May through a long competition process, will be playing 18 dates around the UK in October and November.
They'll be celebrating the 40th anniversary of the band’s iconic album, A Night At The Opera.
Annie Mac shares her New Names... and pregnancy news!
Ginger Snaps, Hot Dreams and Pinegrove might not be on your playlist yet, but Annie Mac reckons they soon will be.
The Radio 1 DJ shared her New Names list for August on her show last night, and you can listen back to the half hour playlist now.
Annie has also just confirmed she's scaling back on gigs over the next few months - and will sadly miss her first Bestival ever this year - as she's pregnant again. Congrats!
She hinted at a new year due date for her second child with fellow DJ Toddla T, captioning this Instagram post with the words: "It's all about the XL tees from here until January".
Ellie Goulding's recorded a song for the Bridget Jones film
Following her success with the 50 Shades soundtrack, Ellie Goulding is offering up her dulcet tones to another soon-to-be blockbuster, Bridget Jones' Baby.
You don't have to wait long for the whole track - it'll be available for a listen tomorrow.

Wretch 32 performs brand new track
BBC Radio 1
Wretch 32 and up-and-coming singer RAY BLK joined Huw Stephens to take part in Radio 1's Piano Sessions last night - where Wretch performed a brand new track.
The British star gave an exclusive rendition of Open Conversation, which you can watch below...
Now the band's lead singer, Amy Lee, is showing a more tender side by releasing her first children's album, Dream Too Much.
The 12-song LP - which features songs like Sesame Street's Rubber Duckie - is going to be released exclusively on Amazon Music on 30 September.
Lee told Rolling Stone that the album was inspired by her two-year-old son Jack and began as a "studio-time present to her father, a guitar player, who always played music in the Lee home."
Quote Message: Dad has always been talking about making some kid songs for Jack to have later in life. [My husband suggested] 'You guys should just do it, get in the studio together, you've never been in the studio together, you're both musicians'... I'm very proud of it and it was very fulfilling to be able to do that together. I'm always looking for ways that I can expand myself creatively and this was a surprise. This kind of came out of a very random place and a very pure place. It was just for ourselves and it turned into something really beautiful.

APCopyright: AP
Kanye West fans might want to re-jig their plans for the weekend a bit, after the rapper announced a global string of pop-up merchandise shops will be, um, popping up in cities around the world.
The 21 Life of Pablo stores are dotted around North America, Australia and Europe as well as Cape Town and Singapore, and their exact location will be revealed exactly 24 hours before they open on this here map.
European cities hosting the stores - which will sell merchandise from Yeezy's latest album Life of Pablo - include London, Amsterdam and Berlin.

Katy Perry has surpassed 90 million followers on Twitter, making her the single most followed person on the social media platform since its inception 10 years ago.
In a recent interview with Mashable, she's been reflecting on the minefield that Tweeting has become...
Quote Message: There's a meme, a Mission: Impossible laser meme with someone trying to get through a laser. That's what it's like trying to tell a joke in 2016. I think everyone feels a little on edge saying anything. Sometimes you feel like you have to read all the news before you can say anything.
There's a meme, a Mission: Impossible laser meme with someone trying to get through a laser. That's what it's like trying to tell a joke in 2016. I think everyone feels a little on edge saying anything. Sometimes you feel like you have to read all the news before you can say anything.
And when you have 90 million fans hanging on your every word, one wrong move is all it takes.
Quote Message: When you have a lot to lose you get a bit careful because the bigger you are the harder you fall. So you just kind of have to learn how to bob and weave. I think the whole world has become a little on edge over what you can and cannot say. And it's not just me, it's anyone.

In all the excitement of telling you about Lady Gaga's new single (Perfect Illusion, produced by Mark Ronson and Kevin Parker's Tame Impala) and film role (A Star is Born with Bradley Cooper) yesterday, we somehow neglected to share this week's other VERY important Gaga news that she has also been busy in the kitchen.
The multi-tasking star has teamed up with dad Joe Germanotta to release a new cookbook inspired by his New York City restaurant Joanne Trattoria.
She's writing the foreword for the book, Joanne Trattoria Cookbook: Classic Recipes and Scenes From an Italian American Restaurant, which will feature family stories and anecdotes along with recipes.

PACopyright: PA
A rosy-nosed Adele has posted a video apology to fans after a bad cold forced her to pull out of a date on her US tour.
The singer was due to take to the stage in Phoenix, Arizona for a second night, but the sniffles got in the way.
She told fans: "I'm really, really sorry. I've had a cold for a couple of days and I've been pushing through it... but I pushed too hard and my cold has gotten the better of me."
A bunged-up and emotional Adele continued: "I'm so sorry to let you down," adding: "I will come back and I'll smash it for you."
The band's founder and singer Trent Reznor, has issued a statement to Rolling Stone paying tribute...
Quote Message: Terrible news regarding James. I hadn't crossed paths with him for some time, but always thought of him fondly. He was a fun character to be around, a solid musician and a genuinely good guy. Those of us from that era of the band have been sharing 'James' stories ... lots of laughs and love and sadness. Wishing his family the very best.
