Taylor Swift stands firm in the new video for her instant-smash, "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together," flinging strong-willed sass in the single-take clip. Sporting cozy pajamas and bright red lips (a la Zooey Deschanel in her iPhone/Siri ad) Swift gets bold with her Adam Levine doppelgänger of a boyfriend, tossing him from her Etsied-out crib and jamming out with her animal band (well, people dressed as animals). Swift dumps her boyfriend in various other locales, from a bar to a snowy forest, before fending him off one last time back home. Few things say "over it" like denying your ex admission into your house party.
"We Are Never Getting Back Together" is on Swift's upcoming album, Red, out October 22nd.

Black Keys frontman Dan Auerbach stepped in to produce one track and co-write three songs on Grace Potter and the Nocturnals' upcoming album The Lion the Beast the Beat, set for a June 12th release on Hollywood Records. The disc's lead single is the bluesy and upbeat "Never Go Back," which Auerbach co-wrote.
When Grace Potter and Auerbach wrote the song, they really intended just to play around with the equipment in the studio. "Dan's studio is a sex shop for gear pervs," says Potter. "I found a tiny old Casio that reminded me of my first-ever keyboard and started playing. He jumped on and started fucking around with the rhythm track, and we wrote 'Never Go Back' within the first hour of being in his place," she explains. "We weren't thinking, 'Let's write a big hit single.' It was more like, 'Let's geek out with some weird gear and see what happens.' I'm very glad we did."
Grace Potter & the Nocturnals' The Lion the Beast the Beat won't be released until June 12th, but you can exclusively stream "Never Go Back" on RollingStone.com.

Baltimore-based producer, DJ and recording artist Blaqstarr has produced three tracks – including the intense "Never Hesitant" – for the upcoming indie film LUV, starring Danny Glover and Common, which recently premiered at Sundance. Blaqstarr says that although he wrote "Never Hesitant" years ago, it's still incredibly fitting for both his life as a musician and the film.
"The beat for 'Never Hesitant' was actually created some time ago back in Baltimore. I remember Diplo and M.I.A. coming to my studio and hearing it for the first time," he says. "They liked it so much that M.I.A. jumped on the remix, which is what you hear on Blaqstarr: The Mixtape." The lyrics, Blaqstarr says, reference his drive and success.
"Personally, the lyrics were inspired by my success touring as a DJ and morphing into a recording artist. I am now able to hear and play my own music in different venues around the world, which is a completely unheard of type of experience," Blaqstarr tells Rolling Stone. "I reached that stage with a 'Never Hesitant' attitude toward life, going hard and not being afraid of the unheard of."
The track plays during a pivotal moment of the film's plot. "'Never Hesitate' is used in a scene where the characters cannot hesitate when having to make a split second decision in a life or death situation," Blaqstarr says. The track's beat has elements of Baltimore club music, which is not only familiar to Blaqstarr as a DJ, but is also the scene in which the setting of LUV is set.
