This is such a cool, creative song! I love it, it’s been one of my daily songs… one of those that dont leave your head, kind of your theme song of the day perhaps you would say? Well Mike Posner- I got to hand it to him, his voice …

“Be Without You”
Performer: Mary J. Blige
Every since I can remember, I have been a fan–I use the term loosely–of Mary J. Blige’s music. I say I use the term loosely because I don’t really consider myself a fan: Fans stand out in the rain for concert tickets; fans plaster …

Dig A Pony is a song by The Beatles which appears on their final studio record, Let It Be. Dig A Pony starts off with sort of an awkward beginning before getting into the main riff of the song which isn’t bad at all. Lennon soon comes in with …

KISS - DYNASTY
The last ‘big’ KISS album and the beginning of the end for the band. (Peter Criss doesn’t even play drums here…anton Fig fills in although he never received credit)

Sounds of the Earth: Dusk - Sounds Of The Earth Series is not among my favorite relaxation audio CDs to listen to. I was not necessarily disappointed with this CD, it is just that I did not find the sounds on this CD to be quite as relaxing or …

Released in August of 1990 this album caused an uproar at it’s shocking album cover and gruesome brutal lyrics, this album was banned in Germany and shunned by MTV, they got absolutely no airplay and had no help promoting the album, and this hardly slowed the band down, this …

I feel the true spirit of Christmas with this song. It is a single by Mariah Carey as part of her fifth album Merry Christmas. I also like the video of it, where Mariah Carey is spending Christmas in the snow with many presents and family. Her ex-husband made …

Canadian rockers Finger Eleven have been kicking it now for more than eleven years. From the underground smart-grunge sounds of their 1997 debut album “Tip” to the emotive and acoustic-laden drones of 2003’s self-titled outing, they’ve managed to run the gamut within the confines of alternative hard rock.
But with …

Bunkhouse Theme is a song by Bob Dylan which appears on the soundtrack for the film Pat Garrett And Billy The Kid. One thing I should mention is that the track is an instrumental which certainly isn’t a style of songwriting that is associated with Bob Dylan, although I’d …

The Gift Of The Magi 2: Return Of The Magi is the second track on Knife Man, the most recent album released by Andrew Jackson Jihad. Opening up with a quick distorted guitar riff, a sloppy but fitting drum rhythm also enters the track before a quick vocal performance …

The song “So what” by the artist Pink is so awesome. I am planning to purchase it from iTunes because it would be a great song to jog. It gives you a slow start but gains intensity throughout the song. The beat is infectious! I can …

This is one of my favorite songs at the moment. As an artist, Jason Derulo is catching my eye more and more with every song he realeases. He is what I consider a matured Justin Bieber, his songs are really matured but they are still cute songs about that …

I Think I Can is a song by Animal Collective and the final track to appear on their EP Fall Be Kind. The main thing that I notice about I Think I Can is that it seems to sound similar to many of the other tracks on this EP …

Overview —“ Know Your Enemy, the first single and music video released by Green Day for their latest record 21st Century Breakdown features simple parts and structure yet still very catchy music in the song. I’ll admit that when I first heard Know Your Enemy, I really didn’t think …

Diamond Joe is a track by Bob Dylan which appears on his record Good As I Been To You. Right from the opening section of this track, Dylan’s vocal tone really doesn’t appeal to me very much but then again he went through a long period where his vocal …

Space Rock is a song by Weezer which appears on their record Maladroit. The song opens up with the extremely characteristic power pop sound that Weezer has developed over the years led by simple guitar parts and catchy vocal melodies. Throughout the first few lines of vocals, Cuomo is …

Well, I think that this album is good, but not as good as other BRMC albums, like their first record, “Take Them On, On Your Own”, and, of course, “Howl”, the latter, from my point of view, being their very best album.
To appreciate and assess this album (Baby 81), …

Little Brother is a song by Andrew Jackson Jihad which appears on their split with Flaspar and Golden Boots. Opening up with a calm sound, an acoustic guitar lead comes in over the rhythm established and a listener should get the feeling that this isn’t the traditional fast folk-punk …

Flying, an instrumental track by The Beatles is a song which appears on what I would consider to be their most psychedelic work, Magical Mystery Tour. Although I’m not really sure who wrote the majority of this song, or if in reality it was indeed actually shared, the song …

OJ Da Juiceman hits the scene with his debut album —˜The Otha Side Of The Trap’, and proves that he is ready for mainstream success. This album is not for everybody, as a majority of the songs are “trap” songs, and a majority of the CD is about selling drugs …

The musician David Guetta is one of my favourite EDM Disc Jockeys. Even though he’s been around from the early 2000s, I only took notice of him when I really got into Electronic Dance Music in 2010 or 2011. He’s become one of my favourites because I find his mixes …

This guitar features neck through body, 24 frets, wizard II neck 25.5 scale, reverse shark tooth inlays and Dimarzio pickups, a choice of 3 paint jobs: Black, Green Chameleon, or Red Chameleon.

Insane is a track by Scars On Broadway which appears on their self-titled debut record which came out a few years ago. Unlike the previous two tracks, Exploding/Reloading and Stoner-Hate, Insane is much more similar to Funny because it’s very moderately paced and it features Malakian singing in a …

The CD guests include appearances by Common, J. Rocc, Guilty Simpson, Busta Rhymes, and many other underground and mainstream rappers. Dilla …

I first heard this CD playing on a machine in a gift shop at callaway Gardens. It is a relaxing ambient type of cd, but melodic and not completely random sounds like some relaxation works are. These songs are performed by Chris Phillips, and is one in the line of …

Overview - Let It Be, the final studio album of The Beatles, is made up more of melodic tracks rather than just traditional rock songs, although there are still some of those on here, mixed with some great songwriting and excellent vocal delivery. For me, there aren’t too many …

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 …

Wal-Mart parking lot by Chris Cagle Is a song that reminds me so much of my town right now because that is all there is to do here. They shut down the skating rink so that leaves us Wal-Mart. It�s fun to listen to this song and know …

U2 is an Irish rock band and I decided to pull out one of their Cd’s and give it s a listen as I haven’t listened to this band in a while. I decided to listen to their album entitled “How to dismantle an atomic bomb” and one of …

Aaliyah
“Journey To The Past”
“Anastasia” Original Soundtrack
Atlantic Records
Ah, I’m not so quite sure what they were thinking when they made this video. Don’t get me wrong, Aaliyah does what she does best, it’s just this video that is not ‘at its best’. Is it me or do all music videos …

When it comes to music I know when I really like an act or artist because I buy an album pretty much based on one or two songs and then just seem to listen to these songs over and over again.
This was the case with James Morrison. His song …

I think that Howl is a very strong album. This is an album, which has a very high emphasis on songs. By that I mean that, with many artists, they would have 10 or 15 songs on an album, and all the songs would sound very similar to each …

In their sophomore effort “Room on Fire”, The Strokes pick up about where things left off. Carrying over from their first album, Gordon Rafael’s decidedly low-fi production (a la Magnetic Fields, Guided By Voices) blends Julian Casablanca’s vocals over the ever-present dueling guitars of Nick Valensi and Albert Hammond, …

E-40 is a very talented rapper that is coming out of the Bay Area. He is one of the most famous rappers ever to come out of the Bay Area. I really like his fast and lyrical rap style. He is a really good business man as well. E-40 has …

Hinnom, TX is a snog by Bon Iver which appears on their self-titled second album. The track opens up with a sound which I can only describe as being very airy and light. Once a listener hears the intro, it honestly sounds as if they’re listening to a song …

Gardenhead/Leave Me Alone is a song by Neutral Milk Hotel and is the eighth song on their debut album On Avery Island. Opening up immediately with Magnum’s voice along with a rhythm guitar and drum beat behind him, the song takes on a fairly more aggressive sound than any …

I really enjoy the simplicity of this track. The gentle opening and how gradually it starts to develop into what is just a great sounding track.
Again, it’s Gary Barlow behind it, the writer and the driving force behind Take That.
As a performance it does build gradually, it doesn’t explode …

I know many people have not heard of McKenzie, well this girl has an incredible future ahead of her. She is a fourteen year old Aussie singer, with a voice that could move moutains. She has not gotten an offical record label to sign her yet but she has …

The all male musical group Boys II Men was an African AMerican soul music group who was for the most part poular from the early to late Nineteen Nineties. Thus I would hear their songs throughout my childhood being played on the radio, and I would even see their …

DRESSED TO KILL
I give this one extra point for the classic album cover with KISS decked out in three piece suits.
KISS’ third album was another poor seller when first released and at this point, it seemed that KISS was never going to have any success recording in studio.
The only …
