Mariah Bigger Than Elvis?
With her 18th chart-topper "Touch My Body" Mariah Carey has passed Elvis Presley for the most No. 1 singles on the Billboard Hot 100, and is now second only to the Beatles. But while the diva was in full celebration mode after learning of her latest milestone, she was also quick to put her accomplishment in perspective.

"I really can never put myself in the category of people who have not only revolutionized music but also changed the world," Carey told The Associated Press on Tuesday via phone from London. "That's a completely different era and time ... I'm just feeling really happy and grateful."

Carey's single is the new No. 1 single on Billboard's Hot 100 singles chart: The song also is No. 1 on the trade magazine's digital download chart thanks to a precedent-setting 286,000 downloads in its debut week. She had been tied with Presley with 17 No. 1 singles; the Beatles are the all-time leaders with 20. (Madonna also beat a Presley record this week, surpassing the King for the most top 10 hits with her 37th for her hit "4 Minutes.")

Carey said being in such company was gratifying not only because of her personal success, but what it meant for women and minorities. "For me, in my mind the accomplishment is just that much sweeter," she said. "In terms of my ethnicity, always feeling like an outsider, always feeling different ... for me it's about saying, 'Thank you Lord, for giving me the faith to believe in myself when other people had written me off.'"

Carey, 38, said this is the most enjoyable point of her nearly two-decade old career, and that's her priority these days, not trying to set sales records or even making pop history. "I've gone through enough of my life worrying about that kind of thing," said Carey. "I want to encourage anyone else out there who feels like maybe they can't overcome an obstacle, I feel like I'm living proof ... never lose your faith," she added. "I'm seriously a grateful individual right now"

It's no secret that looking good is a big part of music industry these days and that's why we created Beautiful Divas category. It features the most beautiful female singers and artists out there, such as Jessica Simpson, Britney Spears, Shania Twain, Christina Aguilera and a few others.

Our Guitarist's section is of course created for those who play guitar. Mostly it's done for those who play either six or sever string guitar, but there is some info for a bass guitar player as well.

We also sell tickets to band concerts and you can find out if they are playing around your area.

Musiceffect.com is a growing online community and hopefully will continue on growing and bring you more and more music information.

What are we planning for musiceffect.com? Well, we are planning to do major updates and upgrades for the site. Existing sections will be redone, such as radio and files, new sections will be added such as new forum, private messaging and a lot better and a lot more flexible member's area.

New guitar tuner sounds are available. Mp3 format, fast loading, crisp and clear. Online guitar tuner is one of the most popular sections of our site and can be found here ( Guitar Tuner ).

Hot Chords sounds are fixed as well. Some visitors had issues with the chords actually playing, so the script that was running the sounds was redone and should be working properly. The best thing to do is to let the page fully load before playing the sound to avoid any possible issues. If you still hear no sounds, refresh the page and let it load, until you see nothing displayed in the left corner of your status bar. You can check out these chords by clicking here ( Hot Chords ).

Band Fonts section was updated with a few new fonts. We are always trying to find new stuff for our visitors who like to use their favorite band's graphics in anything they do, from printing CD or DVD picture covers to simply using it in a college paper heading.
