The Hot Summer 2003 LidRock® featured some of the hottest acts of the year! The disc was packed with wallpaper, screensavers, e-cards, news and information about the following bands :
Play
If you've ever fallen in love, looked for love or lost a love, you've got something in common with the young ladies of the Swedish pop quartet, Play. On Play's first full-length album, Replay, the Stockholm-based group--comprised of Anaïs Lameche, Anna Sundstrand, Rosie Munter, and Faye Hamlin--uses luscious pop harmonies and sweet R&B grooves to explore the uncertainty, longing and excitement of first love.
No song in recent memory rings so true about the scary transition between adolescence and adulthood as the first single, "I Must Not Chase The Boys." This irresistible track, which lyrically pits the caution of a good girl against the temptations of first love, sets the stage for the group to confidently show off their vocal finesse. "All of us sing lead," says Anaïs. "It just varies from song to song."
Mandy Moore
Over the past five years, Mandy Moore has pursued her artistic goals, achieving the kind of crossover success most performers and teenagers only dream about. She has released four best-selling albums: her 1999 platinum debut, So Real, which included the smash single, "Candy," and three huge follow-ups; the 2000 Special Edition album, I Wanna Be With You; 2001's Mandy Moore and the soundtrack to her 2002 hit film A Walk To Remember.
She has also hosted her own show on MTV, and after receiving the MTV Movie Award for Breakthrough Performance in A Walk To Remember, Mandy is winning critical raves for her refreshing screen presence and impressive dramatic and comedic performances in major Hollywood productions (A Walk To Remember, How To Deal) and independent films (Try Seventeen, Saved).
Celine Dion
Following close on the heels of last years 8 million selling A NEW DAY HAS COME, Celine's latest album, entitled ONE HEART, showcases an inspired Celine. Continuing to perform to sell out crowds in her Franco Dragone-directed show "A New Day..." which opened its 3-year run in Las Vegas this spring, Celine is at the top of her career.
Once again the world's best songwriters and producers gave their creative all to provide a musical and lyrical platform for Celine to adorn with her one-of-a-kind vocal talent on ONE HEART, which features the current hits "I Drove All Night", and "Have You Ever Been In Love"
Jessica Simpson
Born and raised in Dallas, Texas, dance-pop vocalist Jessica Simpson shared bills with gospel acts like Kirk Franklin, God's Property, and Ce Ce Winans. She toured in support of the boy-band 98° prior to the 1999 release of her Columbia Records debut album, Sweet Kisses, which peaked at #25 on the Billboard 200 in 2000. The RIAA-certified double platinum Sweet Kisses featured Jessica's massive breakthrough hit, "I Wanna Love You Forever," which hit #3 on the Billboard Hot 100.
The title track to Irresistible, her 2001 follow-up, was a crossover smash, charting on the Hot 100 (#15), the Rhythmic Top 40 (#12), Top 40 Mainstream (#3) and Top 40 Tracks (#5).
