Kelly Clarkson ” To Make You Feel My Love”. A Song

“Freaks, Faggots, Drunks, And Junkies” by GG Allin (LP, 1988)
By the late 80’s, GG Allin’s music has become obsessed with murder, necrophilia, sex, drugs, and et cetera anti-social themes. His voice has become a heavily distorted yell, making his vocals sound like a 60 year smoker yelling. The recording quality has decreased to the point that some songs …

Green Day - Wake Me Up When September Ends (Song)
Wake Me Up When September Ends, the final ballad from American Idiot proves that although Green Day may have faltered on previous ballads like Boulevard Of Broken Dreams or Are We The Waiting, they certainly pull it off very nicely in the end. As I have already said, whereas …
Bob Dylan - Blowin’ In The Wind (Song)
Blowin’ In The Wind, one of Bob Dylan’s most famous and ionic songs throughout his extremely lengthy career proves to certainly meet it’s reputation as the track itself is just great. As with most early Bob Dylan, or rather most Bob Dylan for that matter, the track isn’t driven …

The Slip, 2008 Album by NIN
This album is quite a let-down. This album was released by Trent Reznor for free in its digital form. The release was very unconventional in its form. And I think that it was correct that this album was free. The thing is that this album is not very good. …
Nine Inch Nails - The Collector (Song)
The Collector is a song by Nine Inch Nails which appears on their album With Teeth. The track opens up with a very simple drum pattern which is prominent throughout the song and is soon joined by an equally simple bass rhythm. Despite the simplicity that Reznor has going …
Better Than Life (Hillsongs)
I’d been a fan of Hillsongs not just because they promote Christianity and relate into their songs what the Christian life is all about, but also because of the variety of songs they write and sing —“from mellow to slow rock. I’m really not good at identifying genres but …
Forever by Drake featuring Kanye West, Lil Wayne, and Eminem
You’ll love this song forever! Yes, bad pun. But this song is really cool! The song, a little over 6 minutes, is addicting. Blast in on you iPod, hiss a “yes” when you hear it on the radio, play in at your party. I know I’ve been listening to …
The Bees by Lee Ann Womack
The bees sang by Lee Ann Womack is a wonderful song. I have only heard it a couple of times but it is a really good song. It’s pretty and a country song but a little more upbeat than most country songs. I like singing to it and I …

Pink Floyd - Animals (1977)
This album is the complete opposite of the previous „Wish you Were Here”. When I first listened to it, I was shocked by the huge leap the band made from that album. If WYWH was about emotions, intimacy, and empathy, „Animals” is a strikingly bleak and politic statement, in …
City of Joy soundtrack CD
In my top five of Patrick Swayze films is City of Joy, the story of a suicidal young doctor (okay, they edited the suicidal part out of the released film, but that’s who he was) who travels to India and ends up being rejuvenated. It’s a marvelous film …

Disintegration, 1989 Album by The Cure
This album is a very interesting form of musical art. This is one of the deepest and pompous albums that have ever been recorded. There is a song called The Same Deep Water as You on this album, and I think that the concept of depth is really crucial …

The Velvet Underground - I Love You (Song)

Speak Now Deluxe Edition by Taylor Swift

An independent musician, Li could best be described as a living, breathing work of art. If I could define …

Jessica Simpson
I’ve honestly never listened to any of Jessica Simpson’s songs. But, I have seen her in movies. And, after some time, she has actually started winning me over a bit.

Zooropa 1993 Album by U2
This album is a remarkable work of art. There is an atmosphere on this record which is unparalleled. If the previous U2 album was brilliant, this album is post-brilliant. The previous album, Achtung Baby is a collection of very strong tracks, whereas this album feels more effortless and easy. …
The Sound of Silence by Paul Simon
The song “The Sound of Silence” by Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel a.k.a Simon and Garfunkel (who was a musical duo who became popular in the mid 60’s)was created with a great deal of wisdom. It was like the composer/s was in a trance while writing this. …

(Album) - Lei It Bleed - The Rolling Stones
Apotheosis sound of the band Jimmy Miller, who in the mid-60s reconverted the beethelian copy into a single group, introducing the black sound across the Atlantic. Not surprisingly, for this reason, I found the very Ry Cooder and Al Kooper in the credits, putting the album in a worthy …
