Hillbilly Deluxe by Brooks and Dunn
The song Hillbilly Deluxe by Brooks and Dunn reminds me of something sung by at true red neck from the backwoods. It has a certain swinging beat that will drive you to stomp your foot or tap you finger to the restless beat. This type of music has a …
Soundgarden - The Day I Tried To Live (song)
“The Day I Tried To Live” is just one of many singles off of Soundgarden’s absolutely amazing 1994 release “Superunknown”. Soundgarden was probably the most interesting group out of the Big 4 back in the day. Where Alice in Chains was known as being the heavier more “metal”, Pearl …

Impossible by Shontelle
Shontelle is an R&B singer-songwriter from Barbados. This aspiring lawyer-singer is also the one who sang T-shirt, which became my theme song whenever I am taking a bath. Impossible is another hit single coming from her that is far much better than T-shirt because of the story. The story …
Green Day - Give Me Novacaine (Song)
I will admit that when I heard the first few bits of Give Me Novacaine I was a bit worried that it was going to be another track to sound extremely similar to previous songs like Boulevard Of Broken Dreams and Are We The Waiting, thankfully I was wrong. …

Cee Lo Green - Forget You - Single

Song: “Your and Your Hand” by Pink
“Your and Your Hand” by Pink has to be one of the catchiest songs I have heard on the radio in the past few years. At first I thought it was Kelly Clarkson, but realized it was Pink. I should have figured Ms. Clarkson wouldn’t want to ruin …

Gorillaz, 2001 Album by Gorillaz
I have read that this album has sold over ten million records worldwide. There must have been many reasons for that, but I would go so far as to claim that the music proper was not the biggest reason for this album’s commercial success.
I was about twelve when I …

E=MC2 by Mariah Carey
E=MC2 by Mariah Carey album doesn’t disappoint. At a moment when I thought that there might be lesser and perhaps then extinct singing voice from Mariah Carey, she surprises me up with an album.
