Keep Holding On by Avril Lavinge
Keep Holding On by Avril Lavinge is a song that is a beautiful ballad. This song is sad but it gives some people hope when they know someone else is willing to stay with them through any thing. I love this song for the hope it fills you with …
“Good Girl Gone Bad” Album by Rihanna
Rihanna seems to be absolutely everywhere these days. With her ever-changing brightly colored, quirky hairstyles, it is very hard to miss her. She is constantly being played on the radio and featured on the front cover of every magazine on newsstands. I definitely understand all of the hype about …
For beginners guitars
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.

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 …
Taylor Swift Concert
I attended the Taylor Swift concert on May 14th, 2010 at the Nassau Colesium in Long Island with my boyfriend. We bought the tickets after they were sold out from this website that basically buys and sells tickets for concerts. We ended up paying a total of like two …
Love is a Battlefield
While the artist might not have had many hits, this one certainly proves to be the most endearing of her discography. It’s a staple of any good 80s soundtrack and still has a punchy enough tune to get the toes tapping now.
For an eighties track, it’s all there. …
Crazy Ex-Girlfriend by Miranda Lambert
When I first listened to Crazy Ex-Girlfriend by Miranda Lambert, I really thought that I am reading to a novel or something. There is a certain kind of story to this CD album that I like so much. Her voice is soft and crooning and she can even …
System Of A Down - Mind (Song)

When You Say Nothing At All by Allison Krauss
When You Say Nothing At All is the best song that Allison Krauss ever recorded, in my opinion. It is the most amazing love song that you will ever hear. From lyrics to the beat, it is the most romantic song I can think of. She is telling her …
Rascal Flatts - Nothing Like This CD
Nothing Like This is the newest CD in Rascal Flatts’ already huge discography. It has already sold thousands of copies. I was the last of my fellow Flatts fans to get it.

I Care 4 U (2002): Aaliyah
Aaliyah
“I Care 4 U”
Aaliyah
Blackground/Virgin
Director: LIttle X
I have to ask, why bother? Seriously, this has to be the worst Aaliyah music video ever, ever, ever made. This isn’t Aaliyah’s fault though because she was already dead at the time, it’s director Little X’s fault for not coming up with something …
Busy Man song
The song Busy Man was a hit for country singer Billy Ray Cyrus, and it’s a song I have loved since its release. In some ways, it’s not unlike Harry Chapin’s Cats in the Cradle, only it has a happier ending.
Composed by Robert Joseph Regan and George Gustav …
Justin Bieber - Love Yourself (Song)
Justin Bieber’s re-invention proved to be really a success. Ever since he dropped his big ego and spoiled-boy personality, hype built up around him until it was big enough for people to check out his music again.
For all we know, only teens were here for him before his comeback …

Metallica - Suicide And Redemption (Song)
Suicide And Redemption, Metallica’s fourth instrumental of their career and penultimate track on Death Magnetic, is similar to The Unforgiven III in the sense that it has some truly brilliant parts but also some parts which just aren’t so good. I’ll start with my complaints against the track. My …
Coldplay (song, Yellow)
Coldplay is a British band specializing in the Alternative rock genre. Yellow is a wonderful love song from the Parachutes album they released a while back.
This song starts off with a guitar playing and then merges more into other instruments including drums. The singer, Chris Martin, then begins to …
Chi-Lites
Once many people get to know me it will soon become clear to them that I am not the type of person who likes listening to soul music. In fact, I think many people will be surprised to find out that I actually know a lot about old soul …
The Canadian Brass: The Canadian Brass Go For Baroque CD
I’d forgotten I had The Canadian Brass: The Canadian Brass Go For Baroque CD to be honest. Now that’s not a bad sign about how I feel about it; it was just buried beneath a large stack of other CDs and remained hidden in a sense.
This was actually …
The Beatles - Help!
Overview - Help!, The Beatles’ fifth effort, is the final album that I would consider just average before they launched into their truly great period with albums such as Rubber Soul, Revolver, Sgt. Pepper’s, The White Album, Magical Mystery Tour, and a few others. The thing about Help is …

Garbage, 1995 album by Garbage
This album catapulted the band to worldwide fame, but I personally do not find the album all the strong. I think that this album has a very deep discrepancy between the different songs on it. Some of the songs are impressive and deserved to become the hits that they …
Green Day - Misery (Song)
Misery, a track appearing on Green Day’s album Warning, is a song that I will admit actually surprised me significantly. I’ll admit that Warning and the previous few records that Green Day released were quite disappointing, particularly since they proved that they could do so much better, but Warning …
Telephone Video By Lady Gaga
The song “Telephone” came off Lady Gaga’s new album, The Fame Monster. It’s about a girl, whose boyfriend keeps calling but she won’t pick up the phone because she’d rather be dancing. I’m very picky when it comes to songs. I love Lady Gaga, but it took time for …
Hoobastank : ForNever
Three years does not make Hoobastank experienced many changes, at least from their style of music. ForNever, the four albums that came after Every Man For Himself in 2006, seemed to be a repetition of this band. My Turn, the first single released on October 13, 2008, is the …
Nas - Undying Love (song)
“Undying Love” is a lyrical masterpiece from the rapper Nas. This song appears on his album “I Am” which in itself garnered mixed reviews. I’ll tell you this though, never will you hear such a well thought out and well told story in today’s rap/hip hop scene. Fittingly this …

Album : New York Dolls - Dancing Backwards In High Heels

Selena Gomez - Hands to Myself (Song)
I was a big fan of Selena Gomez when I was like 10-14 years old. I always saw her as Miley Cyrus’ rival during those days, coming from Hannah Montana and Wizards of Waverly Place.
I loved some of her songs when she was called “Selena Gomez and the Scene”; …
Green Day - American Idiot
Overview —“ American Idiot, Green Day’s seventh effort, is what I would consider their greatest work in their career. The songwriting on this album is amazing, especially compared to their previous work, Warning. Whereas Warning seemed to lack energy in most of the songs and was also just a …

Jagged Little Pill
Alanis Morissette’s album, Jagged Little Pill, has quite the catchy little title. I like that! In fact, that was the first thing that I really liked about this CD. The second thing that I really liked was the presentation of the sound on the tracks. Alanis Morissette has a …

Doll Domination by Pussycat Dolls
Is it me, or is Pussycat Dolls sounding more mellow by the day..? I can’t help to say that, and it is quite evident when I listened to the tracks in Doll Domination by Pussycat Dolls. They are sounding normal by the day and the tunes are not …
“Stereo Love” by Edward Maya & Vika Jigulina
