Classic (song) by Adrian Gurvitz
I like love songs, my father said there is no such as love song but ballads. It is only called love song because the song is about love. Anyway, for me whatever it is called I still love songs about love. One of this is the song by Adrian …

Kanye West “Love Lockdown”
I recently had the opportunity to listen to the song “Love Lockdown” by the famed rapper Kanye West. If you aren’t already familiar with Mr. West’s material go get yourself a copy of his other albums “The College Dropout” or “The Graduation”. Kanye West is usually known for his …
Lily Allen-It’s Not Me, It’s You (2009)
This cheeky singer is probably most well known for her hits —˜Smile’ or —˜LDN’. Well, she is back with a more entertaining, grown up perspective on life, love and most other things under the sun with her new album —˜It’s Not Me, It’s You’. Her first release, whilst great pop …
Sugar Ray (band)
In the early 2000s when I had just entered high school I had just begun to discover rock music. A lot of the music that I had begun to listen then was a lot softer than a lot of the music that I tend to listen to now and …

Megadeth - Into The Lungs Of Hell (Song)
Into The Lungs Of Hell is a song by Megadeth which appears on their record So Far, So Good… So What. Something to note about this track before we begin is that it’s an instrumental so if you aren’t typically a person who enjoys those, this wouldn’t be a …

not a song on the …
Muse - Uprising (Song)
Uprising, a very recent single released by Muse for their latest record The Resistance, has an extremely catchy vocal melody along with excellent lyrics and musical parts to go with it. Uprising starts out with a very space-like vibe and sound due to the synthesizer and the bass riff …
Michael Kelly Rose Acoustic/Electric Guitar
At first I was a bit apprehensive about purchasing a guitar that appeared to be a “knock off” of a Martin D-45. Given the reputation that copy cat guitars generally bare, I was certain that the craftsmanship would be inferior. That coupled with being manufactured in Asia …
Muse - United States Of Eurasia (Song)
United States Of Eurasia (+ Collateral Damage) is a track by Muse which appears on their most recent record, The Resistance. For those of you who have heard this track then I’m sure you can agree with me when I say that it seems like Queen had a good …
Taio Cruz: Rokstarr
My name is Sophia Chartrand and I’m reviewing for Taio Cruz’s album, Rokstarr. What I’m going to do is, talk about every song on the album and my opinion about it.
1) Dynamite (5/5) - This song is really groovy. Dynamite is the best song for a club or …
Singer Elvis Presley
Elvis Presley is no longer with us but he certainly is still a name that everyone recognizes. I remember as a child, listening to Elvis on my mother’s stereo. He was still alive and well, but he had gained quite a bit of weight by the time he passed …
Yngwie Malmsteen’s Rising Force-Perpetual Flames
Everybody who plays guitar knows Yngwie Malmsteen. I grew up listening to his music. In my teens I always wondered could I play the guitar like him? No doubt that he is one of the most influential guitarist in the world. His speed and neoclassical styles had inspired …
Scars On Broadway - Babylon (Song)
Babylon is a song written by Scars On Broadway which appears on the track listing of their debut self-titled record. I will be very simple right now and say that I think this is the most developed track on the entire album and certainly has the best songwriting on …
Neutral Milk Hotel - April 8th (Song)
April 8th is a song by Neutral Milk Hotel and is the penultimate song on their debut album On Avery Island. Though Three Peaches, another song on this album, had a pretty dark and sad sound to it, I must say that April 8th is easily the darkest track …
Megadeth - Paranoid (Song)
Paranoid is a cover by Megadeth which appears on their record Hidden Treasures. Hopefully if you’re a fan of metal then you’ll know that the original version of this song is by Black Sabbath and that you’ve heard the track before. If not, then I’d highly recommend first listening …
Singer Rod Stewart
Rod Stewart isn’t the most handsome of guys, but he does have a unique voice that tends to draw me in at every turn. His voice does sound a bit scratchy but that is what makes his recordings so great. Rod Stewart has enjoyed great success as a singer …
‘There Goes My Life’ by Kenny Chesney
Personally, I have a great disdain for country music, but during the year 2004, many great country songs made their way onto the airwaves and ‘There Goes My Life’ is one of those wonderful tunes.
I find this song to be very sweet, tender, moving, and sad all at …
The Behringer X V-Amp
The X V-Amp is a floor-based effects pedal from Behringer. Like most products from Behringer, it’s cheap. I’ve been a guitarist for at least 15 years and I have this pedal for almost 2 years now. I actually use it for gigs. My main effects …

Slayer - Haunting The Chapel (Song)
Haunting The Chapel is the title track for an EP released by the band Slayer. The track starts off with a quick, aggressive, and dark sounding guitar riff while an extremely heavy feel is reinforced by the bass and drums of the track. Thus far the guitar riffs each …
Christina Aguilera (singer)
These days, I am not even in the slightest bit interested in both Christina Aguilera’s music and Christina Aguilera herself; however when Christina first became popular years ago in my early years of high school, I had been interested in her music and she since was also one of …
Girl Next Door by saving Jane
I really like the song Girl Next Door by saving Jane. I think many young girls can relate to it. The song tells about how the popular girls get everything they want and how the other girls get ignored, left out, or pushed to the side. A line that …
Nirvana: Unplugged In New York City
Nirvana: Unplugged in New York is a great CD that every rock lover should own. Nirvana: Unplugged in New York is truly a great historical event market because it is the last concert that Kurt Cobain played prior to his death. I think that Kurt Cobain was an outstanding …
Sami Yusuf (Nasheed singer)

Tinie Tempah - Written In The Stars - Single
I wasn’t too familiar with Tinie Tempah before I saw his album advertised on the telly and often that is when you realise how many of his songs that you already knew. One stood out for me, this was Written In The Stars. I had heard it on the …

Twilight the Soundtrack
I must say that Twilight the Soundtrack is quite the rave for me nowadays. The songs featured inside are all quite catchy and you have nice beats, fast ones, kind of melodramatic tunes and sometimes kind of rock sounding. Including in the rock tunes and other beats would …
Sebastian Bach - Angel Down (2007)
In my opinion, Sebastian Bach is one of the best singers on the planet. His days with Skid Row birthed some of the most memorable vocal performances in modern rock. It’s no secret that he was booted from the Row, and it’s no secret that a reunion …
Sam’s Town (New Killers CD)
The Killers are still new to the music industry. The band has been extremely popular since their first album “Hot Fuss” and their guest appearance on the popular TV show “The O.C.”. The band has recently realesed their newest album “Sam’s Town”. I was so excitied to hear about …

Blues Breakers With Eric Clapton by John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers
This Blues Breakers With Eric Clapton by John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers is another of my favorite blues sounds and songs.
It proudly belongs to me, which I bought for around $100, and although this be a bit outdated to have, it still definitely rocks. For all of those …
She be Like by Git Fresh
What I do remember in this song is the part where Git Fresh is sing Bam bam bam part and the ding ding ding ding part. It also uses the intro of the song Tom’s Dinner by Suzanne Vega, so it is easy to remember. It is a great …
Christmas Cheers Album of Connie Francis (MP3 downloads)

Album : Cirith Ungol - One Foot In Hell
It’s hard to believe sometimes just how many things you miss while busy doing real life stuff, and for me discovering music that i didn’t get to the first time around for one reason or another is something i really love to do.
Lately, i heard for the first …
If That Ain’t Country by David Allan Coe
David Allan Coe sings the song If That Ain’t Country. It’s an odd song at best that remind me of how people believe in stereo types. David Allen Coe has always been a good singer but I was shocked the first time I saw a video with him in …
Version 2.0, 1998 Album by Garbage
I like Version 2.0 a lot more than Version 1.0, the debut album released by Garbage, and called Garbage, even though, it should have been called Version 1.0, for the name of the second album to make a little more sense. But the title is kind of memorable nonetheless. …
L.L. COOL J. Mama Said Knock you Out CD
L.L. Cool J’s album . Mama Said Knock you Out is one of the best rap CDs to ever come out. This is a true hip hop classic. I really liked this album and lot and I thought that the beats were very well done, as well as the lyrics. …
Soundgarden: Down On The Upside
This marks the saddest time in my life as a music fan. The last album of new songs that Soundgarden will ever put out. It was a good ride, but all ended here with Down On The Upside. But, if you gotta go out, go out with an album …
Rolling Papers CD (Wiz Khalifa)
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 …
Bob Dylan - Fixin’ To Die Blues (Song)
Fixin’ To Die Blues is a cover performed by Bob Dylan which appears on his self-titled debut record. I’ve read that Dylan’s version of the song is actually pretty different than the original because he changes around the vocal melody along with some lyrics so we’ll see how this …
Sing Me a Lullaby by Twila Paris (MP3)
I purchased an MP3 download of Twila Paris’s Sing Me A Lullaby. I first heard this song in one Mother’s Day Presentation on TV. It was sang by Lea Salonga. No exaggeration but as I was listening I could not helped but be moved. The lyrics of the …

Album - Black Pistol Fire (2011)
I must admit that up until somebody aimed me toward this album i had never heard of the band Black Pistol Fire, but now after spending some time with album i am happy to have found it. The closest band i can compare them to would be the White …
Dear Mr. President by Pink
I was very surprised by these lyrics, but I’m glad that Pink was able to convey her feelings to the president like this. She is a strong woman who is not afraid to exercise her rights. It is obvious that she didn’t have nice things to say about the …
