Check out the best links of the week

Last updated 13:18 12/02/2010

cash1. Ain't No Grave - Johnny Cash: The Man in Black is back from the grave for the sixth album in his American Recordings series, compiled by Rick Rubin. If you don't get chills from the lyrics: "There ain't no grave, can hold my body down," you ain't really alive. American VI: Ain’t No Grave is due for release later this month.

2. Superbowl ads: Check out Megan Fox in Motorola, David Letterman cosying up to Jay Leno and Oprah, meet the green police, cover your ears for the screaming chickens, Budweiser's Lost parady, and be real glad you don't have casual Fridays like this in your office. They cost $3 million just to screen them, so they gotta be good.

3. Trailer: The Losers: Another graphic novel adaptation about a secret spy team out for revenge. The hot chick from Avatar and the dude from The Wire both turn up here. Due for release on May 20.

4. Jessica Biel eats weird stuff: If you've ever wanted to see Jessica Biel eat weird stuff - including chocolate-coated crickets - here's your dream come true.

5. Wizard of Oz: Performed by cartoon bunnies, in 30 seconds.

6. Trailer: The Ghost Writer: This one's going to be controversial - it's Roman Polanski's new film, due for release later this year.

7. Sound of Siren - Busy Signal featuring MIA: A woozy new track featuring MIA that sounds like Major Lazer on acid. Yay!

8. Ke$ha changes Hollywood sign: This viral video is obviously faked and the Back of the Y guys did this well before the Tik Tok singer. Copycat.

9. Beaker's Ballad: In which my favourite Muppets character gets done over by instant messaging. How much do the Muppets rule?

10. It Ain't Nothin' - Cypress Hill: A new track and video from the weed-loving rap group, taken from the album Rise Up, due for release in April. If you like it enough, you can download it for free here.

not so much of a link, but I'm surprised you haven't made any mention of of the arrival of one of the biggest hip hop icons of our time coming to our shores next week, goes by the name of Ruler Zig Zag Ziggalah or otherwise known as the Rza, are you going to be interviewing or doing one of your famous reviews?

Yeah, he's playing the same night as Faith No More, so that's a tough decision to make right there...
