Neil Diamond was always a favourite singer of mine way back to the 1970’s. As a fan of the Monkees, too, I loved what they did with ‘I’m a Believer’ and ‘Little Bit Me, Little Bit You’.
He was a mash in the film ‘The Jazz Singer.’
His newest album Home …

Talkin’ New York is a song by Bob Dylan which appears on his self-titled debut record. Something I should point out is that this is the first Dylan composition ever released on any of his records and along with one other original on this record, this is the only …

In Rainbows that was recently released to CD earlier this year. I am a huge Radiohead fan and was very interested to see in which direction they were going to go with this album. I was expecting anything.
The album as a whole is beautiful. Both guitarists use a very …

Harder to breathe by Maroon Five is an awesome song and the lyrics are pretty catchy. I like the beat though because of the drums and all that. This song I found by listening to it on the radio and I wanted to find out where I could get …

Overview —“ East Jesus Nowhere, the third music video released by Green Day in support of 21st Century Breakdown is a song that takes on the hypocrisy of religion and a video that tracks Green Day throughout their 21st Century Breakdown tour. To be honest, East Jesus Nowhere probably …

Overview —“ Stuck With Me, the second music video released for Green Day’s album Insomniac is definitely an interesting concept for a video and I personally love the music video of this song, but I’ll explain the video itself later. The song seems to deal with feeling out of …

The Kids Will Be Alright, Eventually is a song by Sledding With Tigers and is the opening song on their third album, The Arrested Cats. Opening up with an acoustic guitar pattern, the track starts off at a very fair pace and an empty sound. Despite this, the sound …

Who can forget Barry White? I’m sure his songs have touched everyone at some time or other. I know he has touched me. I grew up with Barry White. Barry’s music is so soulful, and truly says something.
Barry’s music just put’s you in the mood for love. His husky, …

I really love the band No Doubt, and I pretty much am not sure whether they are still around or not. My boyfriend got me this DVD version of No Doubt - The Videos and I watched it like 3 times already the minute he had given me this …

Lil’ Kim
“Whoa”
The Naked Truth
Queen Bee Entertainment/Atlantic Records
As far as I can see, Lil’ Kim is the only rap artist I have across who doesn’t favor having too many singles and music videos out from an album. “Hardcore” had “No Time”, “Crush On You”, and “Not Tonight”; “The Notorious K.I.M.” …

4 Minutes by Madonna Featuring Justin Timberlake is not that bad. It also has Timbaland featuring in it as well. For my local radio station, is busy blaring this tune most of the time. I must say that there is a perfect combination for these 2, including …

Starlight is a track by Muse which appears on Black Holes And Revelations. Compared to most of the other tracks on this record, I suppose that I would call Starlight the most mainstream or at least most accessible track on the album. The structure of the track is very …

Danny Elfman is still one of my favorite score writers or soundtrack artists. He has always been dynamic in most of his songs right from Batman on up to his more recent works. One song that stands out in my mind is the theme from the movie, “Red Dragon” …

16 Most Requested Songs is a jazz CD featuring Louis Armstrong on trumpet and vocals. The music is medium-tempo, fast enough to dance to but not overly exciting. Louis Armstrong has a somewhat rough voice for a singer but I enjoy listening to him sing- it sounds …

I was, for a very long time, a huge Oasis fan. I loved their first albums. Especially I enjoyed the second and the third albums. But all their work after 1998 left me rather disappointed. So, I was very interested as to what was going to occur after the …

‘The Devil Went Down To Georgia’ by Charlie Daniels is a fast beat country music song. It has some of the more traditional instruments, like a fiddle, that are rarely used in country music today. Charlie Daniels and his band perform this song with such ease …

Some people say that Standing on the Shoulder of Giants is the first bad album by Oasis, while others say that it is their second bad album. But I disagree with both such statements. I disagree with the description of this album as a bad one. I think that …

I like dance song, especially when I wanna fresh my mind for a little while. When I listen it sometimes I feel so fly and forget a little of all my problem. The dance song that I like the most is trance like this song, ‘my world’.
‘my world’ is …

Lil’ Kim ft. Phil Collins
“In The Air Tonight”
Urban Renewal
WEA
This must be Lil’ Kim’s attempt at an epic music video that has some sort of plot to it aka a mini-movie. R. Kelly has done it, Puff Daddy has done it, and Michael Jackson has certainly done it. My guess …

Days is one of The Kinks’ most well known and well loved songs. Like most of the band’s most successful hits, it was written by Ray Davies, who later went on to have quite a prolific career as a solo artist. Days came out in 1968, and did fairly …

Tool’s 10,000 days has been a welcome addition to my music collection, in early 2006 I picked this album up soon after it’s releases, the album packaging was immence, a digipak with 3d glasses and matching booklet, I have never been as impressed with album packaging as I was …

No Cars Go is a song by Arcade Fire which appears on their second record, Neon Bible. Before getting into the bulk of this review, I should mention that this is a re-recorded version of a song that appeared on the band’s self-titled debut EP record. The song opens …

Overview —“ The Four Horsemen, the second track off of Metallica’s debut record Kill —˜Em All, is actually a song which is written from a much more complex standpoint than the opening track, Hit The Lights, at least in my opinion. I generally don’t associate Kill —˜Em All with …

Hinnom, TX is a snog by Bon Iver which appears on their self-titled second album. The track opens up with a sound which I can only describe as being very airy and light. Once a listener hears the intro, it honestly sounds as if they’re listening to a song …

You could not classify Novembre’s “Materia” as metal, nor heavy metal. Though Novembre have a background that is colored in Metal, on “Materia” they embrace their softer side while including traces of their metal history.
Novembre could somewhat be classified as similar to bands like Opeth, Katatonia, and even at …

When I was a little boy, we had only about five CDs in the household. This was back in mid 1990s. And one of these CDs was this, Zoolook. And I remember how amazed I was, as a seven year old kid, listening to this music. Some of the …

I first discovered the band Korn in I think about 2000. It was when had seen the video for Freak on a Leash on MTV, and I remember thinking it was the heaviest type of rock music I had ever heard. I thought the video was amazing and mystifying …

You may remember Danielle White from American Juniors in 2003. I remember that I was a fan of her from the couple episodes I saw, and I was happy for her that she made it into the group. I decided to see if there was anything new …

Aaliyah
“Journey To The Past”
“Anastasia” Original Soundtrack
Atlantic Records
Ah, I’m not so quite sure what they were thinking when they made this video. Don’t get me wrong, Aaliyah does what she does best, it’s just this video that is not ‘at its best’. Is it me or do all music videos …

U2 is an Irish rock band that has many albums, one of my favourite albums from them is entitled “How to dismantle an atomic bomb.” One of the songs featured on this album is entitled “Love and Peace or else.”
The song itself starts off sort of low key, …

Hell’s Angel’s Cracker Factory is a song by The Flaming Lips which appears on their third studio album, Telepathic Surgery. I’ll note right now that this track is quite an ambitious piece of music and that it’s track listing is just over twenty-three minutes long. Because of its extreme …

Overview - L.A. Woman, The Door’s final album while Jim Morrison was alive, is an album that has a lot of blues influence to it, which I wasn’t a huge fan of, but also some of the best songs The Doors have ever put out. Morrison’s death truly is …

Lady Gaga is known for being one of the most innovative and provocative artists of this generation. She seems to have revolutionized the industry in a mere matter of months. It isn’t simply about how strange she seems to be in the way she dresses and acts. It is …

I highly recommend this album to all people who are into Indie music or alternative rock music.
There are several factors determining why my heart is so warm to this music. In the first place, I like music from the 1990s, 1990s is my favorite decade ever, and this …

Never Argue With A German If You’re Tired Or European Song is a track by Jefferson Airplane which appears on their record Bark. The title may seem quite obscure to you but I suppose there’s reason for it as Slick sings all of the lyrics in this song in …

This guitar is the second guitar that I purchased. The first guitar that I bought was a Mexican Stratocaster. This Ibanez brand guitar has some cool features, but it just wasn’t for me. I really prefer my Strat over the Ibanez. I honestly don’t really know why I bought …

Matt Nathanson’s newest album “Modern Love” is my favorite album of the year. I have never been a hardcore Matt Nathanson fan in the past. While I, like the rest of the Top 40 world, love “Car Crash” and “Come on Get Higher,” as a compilation, his latest album …

Around The Fur is the Deftones second album, released in 1997, again produced by Terry Date. The band has stated the meaning of Around The Fur is something thats not bad, but not good around the fur. My Own Summer is one of the best songs ever, the song …

First, I never thought that REO Speedwagon is the name of the band who sings this song. I thought that REO Speedwagon is a name of a person. I was first introduced to REO when I was in third grade and I remember this song is playing on school …

With The Lights out is a box set of unreleased material by Nirvana, 3 CD’s and a DVD, promising everything unreleased. The year after the release of this set an album Sliver, the best of the box was released, a collection of standouts with 2 unreleased songs not on …

This song belongs to rhythm and blues type …

I just heard The Chainsmokers’ new song and my initial impression was, “WHAT? This is basically a ripoff of their previous song Closer? How could they be so blatant in self-plagiarism?” I immediately hated it because the first thing that came to my mind in why they became such …

Fireworks is a song by Animal Collective and is the fifth track to appear on their record Strawberry Jam. Transitioning straight out of For Reverend Green, Fireworks opens up centered around a guitar part before other instruments join in as well as the vocals for the track. Like all …

Just My Imagination (Running Away With Me) is a cover performed by The Rolling Stones which appears on their album Some Girls. The track is originally done by The Temptations but I’m not too familiar with their version so we’ll see how The Stones do. The track opens up …

“Dead By Bong” is the 5th song off of Cannabis Corpse album “Beneath Grow Lights Thou Shalt Rise” which was released in 2011. It was produced by Erik Rutan of “Hate Eternal” fame and whom I might add produced some of “Cannibal Corpse” newer albums. In other words, it …

The first time I heard this young lady’s music was when I was in high school, and as the years have passed I’ve heard almost nothing from her. Thinking about it now, that could have been as a result of one of two reasons or probably both. The first …

One of my favorite albums, which I discovered by accident while watching the film Almost Famous, where one of the parts of the movie the lead character is to recommend the album and tell him that if he listens to Tommy in the light of the candles he will …

The Hypnotize Album is the last album that System of a Down released before going on indefinite hiatus. I am not sure when the band will be back, but luckily this was one hell of an album to release before leaving.
Attack is the first song on the album. Immediately …

Stuck With Me is a song by Green Day which appears on their album Insomniac. Right from the start, you certainly get hit with that traditional Green Day sound of distorted power chords played in a repetitive structure. I don’t mean for this description to sound unpleasant or anything, …

As a lady, listening to Reunion by Black Sabbath takes a good amount of courage from me, I have to say. I was given this track as a birthday present last year and I’ve yet to find out who the “mystery” user was up till now. The …
