Stone Temple Pilots - Atlanta (song)

“Atlanta” is a slower …

Letter to Me by Brad Paisley

Guns N Roses Chinese Democracy
For us those who are old enough to catch the tail-end of 80’s rock, rock icons Guns N’ Roses are definitely something we can be nostalgic about. Hard-core fans definitely miss the music of unique guitar sounds, equally unique and incredible song structure and craftsmanship and wildcat howls …

Back To Black-music album by Amy Winehouse

Wounds In The Way by Rachelle Ferrell
From the first chord of the acoustic guitar, the sultry voice, and the overall sensual mood, one would believe “Wounds in the Way” was a sad love song. But after hearing the song during its second play, you’ll come to see that is not the case: “Wounds in the Way” …
