Billy Gilman: One Voice CD is the CD that started it all for this country singer. I have always been very impressed with Gilman. He had the right attitude as a young boy, apparently thanks to parents who kept him grounded and had the right kind of …

This is my favorite song and the best rap and hip hop sounds I have to listen. I love the rap, the supreme melody and how the lyrics are arranged. I love how the song flows, the fast beat, the majority of sounds are coming from drums and piano. …

Indescribable by Chris Tomlin is a song that sums it all up. Indescribable is just the word to describe what god is. He is hard to explain and in so many ways you can’t explain him that’s why I agree he is one hundred percent Indescribable. I like this …

Ever heard of Jack’s Mannequin? You should have. Not because of rising popularity or the fact that the band recently accompanied Plain White T’s and Panic!

The Florida Death Metal band Cannibal Corpse’s 1991 follow up to the 1990 classic death metal album Eaten Back To Life ups the ante. This time around the album cover is even more shocking, (by the name of the album you can take a good guess as to what …

The Gift by Garth Brooks is kind of an odd song for him in my opinion. Don’t get me wrong it’s a very beautiful song but it has a certain Spanish flavor and tone to the song. That is something I would not have expected to hear in …
