Michael Jackson’s “Michael”
Michael Jackson’s latest posthumously released album entitled “Michael”, has been out for nearly four months now. As an avid fan of MJ and his music, I’m rather pleased with the results.

All That I Can Say (song, Mary J. Blige)
The 1999 release of Mary J. Blige’s album featured a wonderful opening song called “All That I Can Say.” I really love this little ditty. It’s a wonderful piece of instrumentation. And Mary really gets behind the music with her voice. The tempo is …

Letter to Me by Brad Paisley

Cotton Eye Joe - Rednex
Cotton Eye Joe was a popular dance track in the 1990’s by the band called The Rednex, which as their name suggests, they take upon the gimmick of that of a redneck. Country music, hillbilly blues and some classic techno dance beats! What more can a music fan ask …
Ain’t it Just Like You by Toby Keith

Michelle by Ben Harper

“Undying Love” is a lyrical masterpiece from the rapper Nas. This song appears on his album “I Am” which in itself garnered mixed reviews. I’ll tell you this though, never will you hear such a well thought out and well told story in today’s rap/hip hop scene. Fittingly this …
Lonely Pup by Adam Faith

Hype Magazine
I must admit, the one thing that drew me to buying this magazine in the beginning, was the notion of getting a —˜free’ cover Compact Disc at a price equivalent to just under one US Dollar, at the time (around 2006).
I turned out to be a very good buy …
Just to see you smile by Tim McGraw

Defiance by James Newton Howard - Soundtrack

Sepultura The Best Of Sepultura
This collection was released in 2006, the band hasn’t been with Roadrunner Records for a long time, and wasn’t at the time of the release of this collection, it’s a pointless cash in, the record label shamelessly gathered up tracks by Spineshank, Sepultura, Type O Negative, Suffocation and Deicide …
