Fresh Links: the music breakfast of champions

These links are so fresh, they're like a prince. From Bel-Air.

"In West Philadelphia, born and raised, on the playground is where I spent..." Sorry. We'll get on it with it:

· Have you seen the leaked footage of Cate Blanchett playing Bob Dylan for the upcoming movie I'm Not Here? Reaction is mixed.

· Paris Hilton is apparently taking voice lessons in preparation to record another album. The Superficial considers this: "Can you imagine what Paris' voice lessons are like? It's probably three minutes of singing, and then an hour and a half of the voice coach trying to break through the window to escape."

· Apparently, according to their press release, Interpol "don't often invite intrusion". Which is quite a charming way of describing their plan to take questions from fans and answer them, at their own leisure via their website.

· The 20 craziest soundalike songs. For instance, Nirvana's Smells Like Teen Spirit and Boston's More Than a Feeling. Seriously.

· Mr J Medeiros' song Constance is not for the fainter hearted, but it's always good to hear a rapper with a conscience.

· Smashing Pumpkins Tribute Album, including covers by the Bravery, Panic at the Disco and Ben Kweller.

· Look! It's a dalmation riding a bicycle! Just like in that song... (There is no song about a dalmation riding a bicycle.)
