Terrible Lie is a song by Nine Inch Nails which appears on their debut record, Pretty Hate Machine. The track starts off with a dark sounding synthesizer and drum part, quite characteristic of this album to be honest. A heavy yet simple guitar part comes in which Reznor sings …

The main reason why I am intrigued by The Pussycat Dolls is because they manage to sing relatively well by doing exhaustingly well choreographed dance moves. They are always in sync. They have great sex appeal. They are a very talented group of performers that are entertaining in concert …

Artist: SWV
Video: “Right Here”
Album: It’s About Time
Label: RCA Records
“Right Here” is the first single and music video off of SWV’s debut album “It’s About Time”. In this video, SWV comes across as somewhat of a TLC clone in terms o the clothes they don and the rap verse that …

How you remind me by Nickelback is a song I like a lot because the words stand out to me when ever I listen to it. It’s like I can relate to what the singer is trying to say in his song. My friend on the other hand told …

It’s every musician’s dream to go on the road and tour. But that also means he has to subject his beloved gear to the rigorous tortures of travel. It’s always a wise move to invest in a guitar case that could help prevent your gear from sustaining …

Your Bruise is a song by Death Cab For Cutie which appears on their debut record, Something About Airplanes. Opening up with a repeating and simple guitar pattern, the song establishes a pretty brooding atmosphere which the vocals thankfully take advantage of with a vocal delivery that is both …

As a singer, I’m not very fond of Alicia Keys. I think her voice sounds really weird and it is just not that pretty sounding. But I have to give her some credit because at least her voice sounds natural and doesn’t have any crazy sound effects on it. …

Although I enjoy volume one in this three volume series the most despite the disappointing audio quality, volume two is nonetheless entertaining still because it features a lot of songs from the Beach Boys that aren’t heard as often as say “Good Vibrations” or “California Girls” or “Kokomo”. Those …

I first heard this band while my husband was playing a video game, of all things. They provided the soundtrack to several dance club scenes. Dark, sci-fi dance club scenes, that is. I then realized that they had a song on the Queen of the Damned …

Little did I know that so long as 50 years ago, a guy known as Captain Beefheart was out there satirizing the music industry and composing ridiculously respectable tuneage that can only be described as eclectic. Nana insert words here. Other possible terminology includes avant-garde, jazz, blues, and some …

When your gone by Avril Lavinge is a song about how a girl misses her boyfriend when he is gone. To me it is saying he is leaving and she is missing him a lot because the room they share has his side of the bed made up. It …

I think that the American rock band “Good Charlotte” used to be one of the more popular rock bands about since they had so many hits songs around a particular period of time. I think that part of the reason might also be the fact that the vocalist “Joel” …

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 …

This album is all but a display of what a good pop/electronica album should be. A friend bought me this record last year, much to my surprise. I knew I liked “Here In Your Arms”, which had been introduced as a single beforehand, but I didn’t know any of …

Back Pack is a song by Andrew Jackson Jihad which appears as the fourth track on their record Knife Man. Opening up with a brooding rhythm guitar, the vocals come in soon enough and I would characterize this song as having more of a ballad feeling. Although the previous …

When Britney Spears was in her prime I was never really a big fan of her. I did like some of her songs, just not all of them. When she went through her difficult time of cutting off her hair and locking herself in the bathroom, I thought it …

Several years back Ally McBeal was ‘it’ for viewers everywhere, and it brought a lot of acclaim to Vonda Shepard who did a lot of the singing on the show. The Ally McBeal - A Very Ally Christmas includes a lot of Vonda, along with Calista Flockhart, Lisa …

Watching Take That’s music video for shine is quite interesting now that I know that Robbie Willians was the focus behind the song. For a start it’s all quite elaborate for Take That. Mark Owen walking down what looks like a silver stairway to heaven. However I think this …

Overview —“ Side II of Rubber Soul, The Beatles’ sixth album, is about just as good as Side I was in my opinion and that’s a good thing. After listening to Side I, I figured that Side II would definitely have to compete to be just as good, and …

There is not a year that goes by that I don’t happily listen to my Bing Crosby Sings Yuletide Favorites CD. This is classic holiday music, and it’s done with simplicity and a joy of the season. For the most part, it’s the crooner doing what he …

Rolling Papers is Wiz Khalifa’s big debut album. He released a few of the songs as singles before the release of the CD. That made it feel like I had already heard about half of the songs before he released it. The problem with that was that he had …
