Garden of Serenity by David & Steve Gordon
Garden of Serenity by David & Steve Gordon is one of the few relaxing audio CDs that I did not enjoy. The reason I did not find this CD to be as relaxing or as peaceful is because the nature sounds on this CD are really much too loud …
Smash Mouth (band)
I remember in the late nineteen nineties and early two thousands I had begun to discover pop rock. I was still very young, not even a teenager as yet and so I didn’t know where to get new music especially new music from the pop rock genre since that …
Metallica - Purify (Song)
Purify is a song by Metallica which appears on their album St. Anger. I’ve read that a lot of fans regard Purify to be the worst song on St. Anger but I don’t think I’d go that far. Purify doesn’t sound too bad as it opens up, well until …
Bob Dylan - House Of The Rising Sun (Song)
House Of The Risin’ Sun is a traditional song which is performed by Bob Dylan on his self-titled debut record. I’m sure that just about everyone has heard some version of this song, whether it be the original or just a cover of it from some artist as it’s …
Candy Shop song by Madonna
This song is from Madonna’s new album. It’s one of my favorite songs right now. Other than the song four minutes it’s my favorite on the album. It’s a good song to dance to and to sing to. I really like it because you can dance and sing to …
The Cranberries - Wake Up And Smell The Coffee (2001)
Wake Up, or better said, Bury The Hatchet Part Two, pretty much follows the exact same pattern as the previous record. I mean, even the covers are almost the same, that blue background, the same design, and obviously the same cover-artist. Most of the fans consider this album to …
Joe Satriani - Surfing With The Alien
Overview —“ Surfing With The Alien, the second album released by Joe Satriani, is another of Satriani’s albums to be completely instrumental and driven primarily by his guitar work. One thing that I always liked about Satriani is that he wasn’t really one of the shredders who just played …
The Lovers, The Dreamers and Me by Jane Monheit
Recently, my friend bought The Lovers, The Dreamers and Me by Jane Monheit and I went on to listen the songs listed inside too. The first look at the CD cover and I was totally amazed by how pretty and gorgeous Jane is. She has this very nice …
Tall Tale: The Unbelievable Adventures of Pecos Bill soundtrack CD
The Tall Tale: The Unbelievable Adventures of Pecos Bill soundtrack CD is one of my favorites. This Disney movie starred Patrick Swayze as the legendary Pecos Bill, and it’s full of magic and adventure. The music expresses the wonder of heroes and the growing up of a …
Fender Frontman 15G guitar amp
This little amp really packs a wallop. But the only problem I have is that the sound doesn’t have enough bass for my taste. The overdrive is very sharp and crisp. And this particular model is very very good for extremely crunchy guitar riffs. …
The Black Parade Is Dead by My Chemical Romance
I don’t know what kind of genre to label the band My Chemical Romance for. Either it is punk or more to rock and roll; not so sure which, but I do sure love this particular album featuring them of course.
The storyline is pretty clear through the songs and …
Dayang Nurfaizah - Still You Leave
I am so in love with this song, titled Dayang Nurfaizah - Still You Leave. The title is also known as ‘Kau Pergi Jua’. This song is actually a cover version of another veteran singer and Dayang Nurfaizah is sort of Malaysia’s answer to Beyonce. And she …
Rowdy Country
Rowdy Country is a music video that stars George Jones, Mickey Gilley, Mel McDaniel and Moe Bandy. George Jones performs the song The one I Loved Back Then which is also known as the corvette song. I like this one because it is so funny to think that the …
Untouched by The Veronicas
It is hard to tell what this song is about unless you really listen to the lyrics. The lyrics itself complete a song so that is the most important thing to pay attention to when reviewing a song, not just how the song sounds or who it is by. …
Red Hot Chili Peppers By the Way.
When I heard californication the album I thought it was the best that the Red hot chili peppers could do. I thought it was amazing, the songs were fantastic, beautifully played, with deep lyrics and some real insight into the band. And then By the way was released and …
The Doors - Back Door Man (Song)
Back Door Man is a song which appears on The Doors’ self-titled debut record which is a cover of a Willie Dixon track. What I simply have to praise about this song, even as it’s just about forty-five seconds in is that it has a very nice laid-back groove …
Metallica - Fight Fire With Fire (Song)
Fight Fire With Fire, the opening track to Metallica’s second album Ride The Lightning, is a song which I personally believe is one of Metallica’s fastest and most aggressive songs throughout any of their nine records. Although this song opens up with a very melodic …
1, 2 Step (2004): Ciara ft. Missy Elliott
Ciara ft. Missy Elliott
“1, 2 Step”
Goodies
LaFace Records
Director: Benny Boom
“1, 2 Step” is Ciara’s follow-up single and music video to “Goodies” off of the album of the same name, “Goodies”. The song is obviously inspired (extremely inspired, I might add) by 1980s electronic music. In the lyrics, Ciara often describes …
Snow Patrol : A Hundred Million Sun

Be Here Now 1997 Album by Oasis

You and me by Fall out boy
I’m like a lawyer the way I’m always trying to get you off (me and you) is a song by Fall out boy that I like listening to all the time because of how the lyrics are. The whole song is beautiful and confusing all at the same time. …

(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 …
Warwick Rockbass Corvette Bass guitar
I bought this as a back up bass so i had a spare bass lying at work for after work rehearsals.The Rockbass is Warwicks entry level range so although it is good it isn’t quite in the same league as a Warwick!
This cost £270 from an online music shop …
Thriller by Michael Jackson
Over the years, Michael Jackson was become more well-known for his eccentricities than for his music.
However, if there was ever a time when his self-proclaimed ‘King of Pop’ status was justified, the Thriller era was it. Jackson’s 1982 album release ‘Thriller’ was one of the largest commercial successes …
Shelter Of Your Love by Jimmy Cliff
Even though I like all genres of music, I have not had the opportunity to hear much reggae until I was watching the movie “Cocktail” starring Tom Cruise. There was a love scene between his character and Elizabeth Shue at an amazing waterfall and that is where I first heard …
Lady Gaga– Monster (song)
Lady Gaga’s song, Monster is a single of her new album, The Fame Monster. I love this song so much. I think I literally listen to it at least six times a day. It’s a song about a Monster, or a guy who she knows is a bad boy …

Alot of people for first guitars are picking up cheap imitational fender guitars all of which feature awful strings and a crap fretboard. The only reason they pick up is for there price of around 150 with a small sometimes battery powered amp.

John Denver: Rocky Mountain Christmas CD
John Denver: Rocky Mountain Christmas CD is a really nice album to play during the holidays especially if you like that crisp, outdoor feel, because that is present all through this record. Denver was known for his environmental beliefs and the song choices for this album reflect that.
It …

Girlfriend - Avril Lavigne
I love avril Lavigne so much since she came up first time with the single complicated and skater boy in her first album let go, so do in the second album under my skin. Her songs feels so rock.
But in the third album the best damn thing, I feel …
Green Day - East Jesus Nowhere (Music Video)
Overview —“ East Jesus Nowhere, the third music video released by Green Day in support of 21st Century Breakdown is a song that takes on the hypocrisy of religion and a video that tracks Green Day throughout their 21st Century Breakdown tour. To be honest, East Jesus Nowhere probably …
Muse - Bliss (Song)

Muse - Supermassive Black Hole (Song)
Supermassive Black Hole is a track by Muse which appears on their album Black Holes And Revelations. I’m sure that many more people know this song now than when it first came out due to how it’s now featured on the soundtrack for one of the Twilight films, but …
Alice In Chains - I Know Somethin (Bout You) song
“I Know Somethin (Bout You)” is a rather interesting song. It appears on Alice In Chains album “Facelift”. What makes this song so interesting is that it doesn’t really have that Alice in Chains feel to it, except for in the chorus. It actually sounds like it could be …
The Best Damn Thing by Avril Lavinge
The Best Damn Thing by Avril Lavinge is about how this girl believes she is the best damn thing a guy has ever seen. IT talks about how the guy makes her look bad some times but I don’t think she understands that guys do not try to make …
Stampeders CD - Sure Beats Working
I picked up The Stampeders newest CD ‘Sure Beats Working’ at their Canada Day concert in Dartmouth Nova Scotia.
This is the first CD The Stampeders produced since their official reunion in 1992, and it is a fabulous offering.
This CD contains 14 tracks, and The Stampeders have used business savvy …

Scars On Broadway - Kill Each Other/Live Forever (Song)
Kill Each Other/Live Forever is a song by Scars On Broadway which appears on their debut self-titled record. I’ll say right now that this track is extremely repetitive and there isn’t a lot of diversity in the song, but I’ll also say that Daron Malakian gives once of his …
The Grateful Dead - Hollywood Cantata (Song)
Hollywood Cantata is a song by The Grateful Dead which appears on their album Blues For Allah. The song opens up with a false start which I personally find unnecessary and purely filler. The track then goes into the actual take and opens up with an introduction which seems …
The Dollyrots
When I first heard the song “Nobody Wants U” by The Dollyrots, it was only just a snippet in the background of the show Reaper. I looked all over the net and finally I found a website that had their songs up. I got to listen to …
Get Rich Or Die Tryin’ by 50 Cent
