Jack Black and Jason Segel have put a new spin on 'Peace on Earth / Little Drummer Boy,' David Bowie and Bing Crosby's classic 1977 Christmas song.

"This old chestnut was dying to be rockified...enjoy" Black said about the recording.

The song begins with conversation between the two funny men, who both star in the upcoming film 'Gulliver's Travels.' Black demonstrates his bellowing vibrato, adding an intensity to the carol of which Tenacious D would be proud. Segel also sings on the track, proving he can do more than tell a good joke.

The song is available as an exclusive iTunes download, and in the spirit of the holidays, the duo is giving all proceeds from the sale of the song to Blue Star Families, a nonprofit organization that "seeks to connect, support and empower military families by offering solutions that make military family life more sustainable."

I See Stars have officially released their new single, 'The End of the World Party,' the title track of the band's sophomore album, due out on Feb. 22.

"After a year and half of writing and recording, we are so excited to be finally releasing a brand spankin new track," drummer Andrew Oliver said in a statement.

He added, "It's the heaviest pop song we've ever written. The synths and theatrics you'll hear in this song introduce the concept of the entire album, giving you a sneak peak of the substance and storyline, while allowing to paint your own picture."

I See Stars demonstrate their unique post-hardcore sound on this apocalyptic track, in which frontman Zach Johnson sings: "Welcome to the end of the world party / Your first move might be your last / This is the night we all leave it behind / Goodbye for the last time."

Default delve into epic love song territory with their new single 'Supposed to Be.' The track is featured on the platinum-selling rock band's fourth album, 'Comes and Goes,' which was released in Canada in 2009, but became available in The States on Oct. 25.

The latest single from Default's US release describes a powerful connection between two soul mates. Singer Dallas Smith explains that he's never been so sure of anything like he is of this love.

"Maybe I'm crazy, but I feel / For once in my life / Like the stars in the sky / Have all aligned / I never will deny that you and I... / We will live forever / Love each other / Die together / How can we deny what feels so right? / We will live forever / Love each other / Kill each other / Isn't that the way that life's supposed to be? / Supposed to be."

The music in the 'Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit' video game commercial may sound like MGMT's 'Kids,' but it's actually Chiddy Bang song 'Opposite of Adults,' which samples the MGMT track.

The commercial shows various clips from the fast-paced game, including a number of spectacular crashes. High-speed police chases through scenic landscapes are presented from both overhead and ground-level views. The clip features sirens and police chatter playing alongside the catchy Chiddy Bang song.

'Opposite of Adults' was a minor hit in the U.S. but charted much higher in the U.K., Australia, New Zealand and Belgium. The song debuted on music blogs in 2009 before it was officially released earlier this year.

'Opposite of Adults' appears on the 'The Preview,' a nine-song EP designed to give fans an introduction to Chiddy Bang before the Philadelphia duo's first full-length comes out in 2011.

Rihanna proves she's still a good girl gone bad on 'S&M,' the new song from her fifth studio album, 'Loud.'

The Barbadian beauty gets straight to the point in the lyrics of her Stargate-produced track, singing, "Feels so good being bad / There's no way I'm turning back / Now the pain is my pleasure cause nothing could measure."

'S&M' is the third single to be released from Rihanna's latest effort, following 'Only Girl (In the World)' and 'What's My Name.' Although she won fans over with pop hits like 'Umbrella' and 'Don't Stop the Music,' Rihanna has always had an edgy side, which is showcased on her sexy new song.

"Cause I may be bad, but I'm perfectly good at it / Sex in the air, I don't care, I love the smell of it / Sticks and stones may break my bones / But chains and whips excite me."

R. Kelly draws inspiration from traditional romantic notions in his new single, 'Love Letter,' the title track from his new album, due out on Dec. 14.

'Love Letter' is not only a toast to love, but it also showcases the singer's classic R&B talents. The Chicago native croons about everything that love encompasses -- including sunny days, celebrations and good times -- making the single a prime wedding day selection.

"Did you get my card? / Did you read my love letter? / Did it touch your heart? / When you read my love letter."

Kelly has been hard at work, creating not one, not two, but three new albums for his fans to hear. The predecessor to 'Love Letter' and compilation album 'Epic,' was released internationally on Sept. 14, but has not officially debuted in the U.S. The 43-year-old has also said he will release the LP 'Zodiac,' but a date has not yet been set.
