If “4 Minutes” is any indication of how the new Madonna CD is going to sound, I think I’ll pass. While this song, produced and sung by Timbaland, Madonna and Justin Timberlake, has a few catchy beats, it can’t be compared to any of the artists earlier hits. The …

I admit that even though I have been reviewing mostly indie and alternative music in this site, I’m still a huge fan of Pop music especially after country superstar Taylor Swift converted into the genre.

2000 Light Years From Home is a song by The Rolling Stones which appears on their album Their Satanic Majesties Request. The track starts off with some brief noise before giving way to an extremely dissonant and just odd sounding piano. If you’ve heard Sysyphus Pt. 2 by Pink …

Few bands have gone on to do anything after X-Factor but the four lads that call themselves JLS have done very well for themselves and their track, The Club is Alive, to me is what they are all about in away.
I do find it interesting that the main line …

This is an ambitious work from a long-standing fan favorite. When Green Day emerged with silly punk tunes ten years ago, no one would have ever imagined they would rise to such heights. This is an epic work. While it does have songs that are easily …

“Batman & Robin” Soundtrack

First there was Prince, then there was R. Kelly, the second worst thing to happen to a ‘Batman’ film soundtrack in the history of the entire ‘Batman’ franchise. Well, it looks like the “I Believe I Can Fly” trick didn’t work …

I have to be honest. I was not a big fan of Katy Perry’s newest music video for E.T. featuring Kanye West. My problem with this music video is that it falls into the trap that a lot of music videos fall into these days. It is way too …

Overview —“ Toxicity, a third music video released by System Of A Down for their second album of the same name is pretty much a performance music video but it has a few twists thrown into it. Rather than be a straight performance video, certain sections of this music …

Before i listened to this album i had a totally different perception of Lifehouse. I liked a few of their songs but nothing really stood out to me. This album is sensational, all the songs are inspiring in it and opens your eyes to everything you can achieve. The …

My mind is changing about the Pussycat Dolls. I still don’t understand why in the world you need 6 people to sing one song, but whatever. I finally gave them a chance and I found that I actually enjoyed their music. I added their newer single to my playlist …

I love Coldplay. They have this style that no other band has. Chris Martin’s voice is so unique that when you hear him singing, you instantly know that it’s him. Before I bought this album, I would often listen to “Yellow” and “The Scientist”. The album X&Y has so …

This album is fantastic on numerous levels. Probably the most fantastic thing about it is that it was released in 1998. When you listen to this album, it is difficult to believe that. Combinations of rap and rock music were very popular, but not round at that time as …

Taylor Swift’s CD called Speak Now is of the country genre but is versatile and integrated into the pop genre too. It is available at any store that sells music, but I would recommend going to Target to pick up a Deluxe Edition for $14.99. Taylor Swift is a …

Album: B-Day
Label: Columbia
Director: Matthew Rolston
This second version of the music video for the song “Listen”, from the “Dreamgirls” soundtrack as well as Beyonce’s second album titled “B-Day”, doesn’t improve upon on the original version in anyway whatsoever. I don’t quite know what the reason is …

The first song I listened to by country artist Billy Currington was Must Be Doing Something Right. I fell in love with Billy’s original, soothing voice. When I have to come up with a word to describe Billy’s voice, I would have to say sexy. Not in a weird …
