Album Review: Big Time Rush - Big Time Movie soundtrack

With the premiere of Big Time Movie just 4 days away, Big Time Rush has released a new 6-song soundtrack! Nickelodeon's fab four takes on the original fab four as they cover classic Beatles hits on this new album.

Kendall, James, Carlos and Logan introduced their fans to the idea last summer when they performed a cover of "I Wanna Hold Your Hand" while on tour, which is one of the featured hits. The guys also perform the Beatles' classics "A Hard Days Night" and "We Can Work it Out," giving it their own BTR touch. They as well do justice to songs like "Can't Buy Me Love" and "Revolution." But the highlight of the album for me would have to be the guys' cover of the famous "Help!" They keep the song simple and close to the original, just like the song should be.



Really, who better to cover Beatles songs than Big Time Rush? A lot like The Beatles, they're four very talented and musical guys, who can definitely pull off these covers. You can catch these songs in their new Big Time Movie, premiering on Nickelodeon on March 10.

Concert Review: Big Time Rush/One Direction - Better With U tour


After attending Big Time Rush's Better With Boston concert at the Agganis Arena on their Better With U tour, all I have to say is... music sounds better with you!

BTR puts on an extravagant show full of trampolines, fireworks, confetti and even a Big Time Rush blimp flying around the crowd! Not to mention the guys' performance, their singing and dancing has gotten even better since the last time I saw them. Kendall, James, Carlos and Logan performed a mix of songs from their new album Elevate, as well as songs from their debut album, often heard on their show.

During their sweet pop ballad "Cover Girl," the guys dedicated it to all of the girls in the audience, and even headed into the crowd to sing to some girls, making the performance even more intimate. But if that wasn't enough, the guys continued their tradition of bringing up a girl from the audience to serenade her with their ballad "Worldwide," in which the lucky girl was seated between Logan and James, got a hug from Carlos and even a kiss on the cheek from Kendall as the guys performed the song.


Though the entire show was full of great music, the highlight for me would have to be their encore of "City Is Ours." The guys came back out on stage wearing Boston sports jerseys as they performed the song, the whole audience standing and getting into it. Throughout the performance, the guys ripped off their jerseys and threw them into the crowd as confetti fell throughout the arena.

On a final note, opening for Big Time Rush is UK boy band One Direction. This is the boys' first tour in the US, and they perform a great set to get the crowd pumped before BTR comes out. They perform their singles "One Thing" and "What Makes You Beautiful," among other songs from their new album, out this month.

If you have the chance to see BTR and 1D on the Better With U tour, don't miss out! And if you can't catch BTR this time around, don't worry, because the guys are heading out on a summer tour with Cody Simpson starting in July!

Big Time Rush wants to duet with Demi Lovato!


Via an interview with AOL Music, the guys of Big Time Rush revealed that they would love to duet with Demi Lovato!

Logan spills, "We’d love to do a song with her. We saw her two times in the last few days at Jingle Balls. I asked her. All it would take is a day to write and record a song and you have it. Whether or not it gets used, I don’t know, but it would be really great."

James chimes in saying Demi's new record is "awesome," while Kendall gives a practical answer. "I think to have her on our TV show would step into some awesome boundaries with Disney and Nickelodeon. It would be kind of cool."

Logan and Demi go way back, as they were in the same acting class together when they were younger! Logan says, "It was the same acting class with Selena Gomez and Demi and myself and Cody Linely. A group of all of us … I still talk to Cody. Not so much right now, he’s still busy. He just booked a new show."

What would you think of a BTR/Demi collab?
