Title: Who's Gonna Save My Soul
Passage: Billboard magazine said of the single, ``Cee - Lo scorches the vocal hook -- ''Who's gon na save my soul now?`` -- and it stops the moderately paced dance cut dead in its tracks.'' The magazine also said it ``might be his finest performance to date. ''Entertainment Weekly called the song`` dolefully paced: and ``nearly dirgelike,'' while People called it`` a gritty, gospel - infused plea. ''Performing Songwriter praised the song as ``a stark song with plucked strings and bass so heavy and distant it could be a psychic echo.'' USA Today said of the single,`` Nobody lays bare their broken heart more painfully or more plaintively than Cee - Lo, ''and named the tune its ``Pick of the Week'' in late January 2009.

Title: To Kill a Mockingbird
Passage: The book has also been adapted as a play by Christopher Sergel. It debuted in 1990 in Monroeville, a town that labels itself "The Literary Capital of Alabama". The play runs every May on the county courthouse grounds and townspeople make up the cast. White male audience members are chosen at the intermission to make up the jury. During the courtroom scene the production moves into the Monroe County Courthouse and the audience is racially segregated. Author Albert Murray said of the relationship of the town to the novel (and the annual performance): "It becomes part of the town ritual, like the religious underpinning of Mardi Gras. With the whole town crowded around the actual courthouse, it's part of a central, civic education—what Monroeville aspires to be."
Title: Guardians of the Galaxy (film)
Passage: Zoe Saldana as Gamora: An orphan from an alien world who seeks redemption for her past crimes. She was trained by Thanos to be his personal assassin. Saldana said that she became Gamora through make - up rather than computer generated imagery (CGI) or performance capture. On taking the role, Saldana said, ``I was just excited to be asked to join by James Gunn and to also play someone green. I've been blue before (in Avatar). ''Saldana described Gamora as``... a warrior, she's an assassin and she's very lethal but what saves her is the same thing that can doom her. She has a sense of righteousness. She's a very righteous individual.''
Title: American Idol
Passage: For the finals, American Idol debuted a new state-of-the-art set and stage on March 11, 2008, along with a new on-air look. David Cook's performance of "Billie Jean" on top-ten night was lauded by the judges, but provoked controversy when they apparently mistook the Chris Cornell arrangement to be David Cook's own even though the performance was introduced as Cornell's version. Cornell himself said he was 'flattered' and praised David Cook's performance. David Cook was taken to the hospital after the top-nine performance show due to heart palpitations and high blood pressure.
Title: Is There Anybody Out There?
Passage: The second half of the song is an instrumental classical guitar solo. Interestingly, it is not widely known who played it: In several interviews, David Gilmour has said that he tried to perform it, and was not satisfied with the final result (``I could play it with a leather pick but could n't play it properly fingerstyle ''). Accordingly, session musician Joe DiBlasi was brought in by Michael Kamen to play with the rest of the orchestra. He was ultimately wrongly credited as`` Ron DiBlasi'' on the album sleeve because Roger Waters only remembered that it was a three - letter name; Ron was the closest name he could remember to Joe when creating the record.

Title: Singham Returns
Passage: "Singham Returns" received mixed reviews from Indian critics. Taran Adarsh of "Bollywood Hungama" gave it 4 stars and said "The film is a complete mass entertainer with power-packed drama, hi-intensity dialogue and towering performances as its aces. The brand value attached to it coupled with a long weekend will help the film reap a harvest and rule the box office in days to come." Rohit Khilnani of "India Today" gave 3 stars and said "Singham Returns is strictly for fans". Shweta Kaushal of "Hindustan Times" gave two stars and said "Watch Singham Returns for the action, not comedy". Mohar Basu of "Koimoi" gave 2.5 stars and said "Ajay Devgan and the thrills his punches manage to evoke but the wafer thin plotline, hammy acting, predictable narrative and the lack of fun and excitement that drives a Rohit Shetty film". Shubra Gupta of the "Indian Express" gave 1.5 stars and said "The sequel to 'Singham' is chock full of the usual car on jeep action. Explosions go off at regular intervals. Shootouts – one really well shot – occur frequently." Rajeev Masand of "CNN-IBN" gave 2.5 stars and said "The predictable story tires you out eventually".
Title: Jesus Christ Superstar
Passage: The musical opened on Broadway on 12 October 1971, directed by Tom O'Horgan, at the Mark Hellinger Theatre. It starred Jeff Fenholt as Jesus, Ben Vereen as Judas and Bob Bingham as Caiaphas.
