Some of you may like surfing through the radio stations listening to a song here, a song there —“ but maybe some of you surf for the same reason I do: that I can’t seem to find anything good. On the rare occasion that I do, as the …

I personally do not like this album. Some of the songs on this album were commercially successful, even though I think that this album is quite boring and dull.

The To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar soundtrack CD is pretty representative of this extraordinary movie which starred Patrick Swayze, Wesley Snipes, and John Legazamo as drag queens. While not every track is a hit for me, several of them are.

Sheryl Crow’s sixth studio album, Detours, reflects globally and on Crow herself. Crow’s lyrics are maternal, religious, hopeful and at times political. Spaced between them are monotonous “oh”s and “yeah yeah yeah”s (good example in “Gasoline”). Disappointingly, this album does not show Crow’s powerful, playful vocals made her a …

Cher has been around for as long as I can remember. I used to watch her on the Sonny and Cher show faithfully every week in the 1970’s. She has certainly come a long way since those days as is witnessed by her song Believe. This is one of …
