If I Never See Your Face Again by Maroon 5 Feat. Rihanna
I think that If I Never See Your Face Again by Maroon 5 Feat. Rihanna is so lame sounding and totally out of tune. I love both of them in terms of their music individually but this collaboration just aren’t them. It made them sounding like they are …
Lady Gaga (performer)
It seemingly happened overnight, but the incredible success of Lady Gaga in the music entertainment world is pretty hard to avoid being at least marginally aware of at this point. She has become a mega-celebrity, hailed as a shape-shifting, provocative pop musical genius along the lines of Madonna, if …
The Flaming Lips - Watching The Planets (Song)
Watching The Planets is a song by The Flaming Lips which appears on their album Embryonic.

Overall, these instruments come together to create a sound which seems as …
Green Day - See The Light (Song)
See The Light is the final track on Green Day’s most recent studio release, 21st Century Breakdown. See The Light starts off with the same acoustic guitar pattern which 21st Century Breakdown, the track, started off with but the tempo is a bit faster I believe. Interesting how Song …

Lupe Fiasco’s The Cool
The most recent album put out by Lupe Fiasco is “The Cool”. I have to say, this is one of the best albums I have ever heard. Lupe Fiasco keeps up with the mainstream rappers, but has a style that is sophisticated but it also switches around and experiments …
Toto : Fahrenheit
Fahrenheit is one of the best albums owned by Toto. At least, it is my opinion, and I’m sure with many people who have the same opinion. Composition of sweet song and very melodic, even though I know that is very difficult to play songs that have Toto’s tempo …

Oasis: Don’t Believe the Truth
Don’t Believe the Truth is the latest release by Oasis. As a die-hard fan, I am always anxious about their latest albums. Questioning if it will be good, will Liam’s voice sound okay, and what about the contributions from the newer members (Andy Bell and Gem Archer). …
Krayzie Bone -The Fixtape
I think The Fixtape by Krayzie Bone is a musical classic. I just heard it today and I think it is great. I had already heard songs like Mary Mary and Sweet Jane on some other mixtapes and those songs were just great. If you have never heard them you …
Green Day - Church On Sunday (Song)

So Wrong It’s Right by All Time Low, album
All Time Low’s second full-length album has become one of my favorite by the artist. So Wrong It’s Right is, in my opinion, All Time Low’s most powerful compilation of pop-punk-revival songs which mixes sometimes run of the mill pop punk themes with energetic and …
Eminem - The Slim Shady LP
It is ten years ago now since Eminem released his first studio album in the form of The Slim Shady LP. The album was ground breaking in a number of ways, but for me personally it was the first rap album that I ever listened to. Back in 1999 …
“Comatose” Album by Skillet
Skillet’s seventh album “Comatose” brings out all the things I love about this band. Their deep and meaningful lyrics and incredible sound and music style that’s all their own. “Rebirthing” is the perfect mix of everything Skillet. The melodious string arrangement. The edgy rock sound …
Radiohead - Creep (Song)
Creep is a song by Radiohead which appears on their debut record, Pablo Honey. Before I begin, I know that Creep is one of Radiohead’s most well known songs, but I want to stress that this truly isn’t what Radiohead has come to sound like. While Creep, and all …
Paradise City by Guns N’ Roses
One of those songs that stick in everybodys head and is a sure rock anthem of the decade is the song Paradise City by Guns N’ Roses. It’s an epic song that has a chorus effect intro played by slash and it really drives well into an intro solo …
Scars On Broadway - Babylon (Song)
Babylon is a song written by Scars On Broadway which appears on the track listing of their debut self-titled record. I will be very simple right now and say that I think this is the most developed track on the entire album and certainly has the best songwriting on …
The Ramones band
Even though the band “The Ramones” became popular in the seventies and I mostly listen to a lot of newer bands, they have always been and still remain one of my faovurite punk rock bands. At first I thought that they were actually an English band since that is …

Birdy - Wild Horses (2016 Song)
I’ve been too in love with this young girl ever since she released an album full of covers, but mind you, she literally treated those songs like they were her own. She polished alternative tracks so that the general public (who don’t like that genre much) would appreciate it. …
Bone Thugs cd “Strenth And Loyality”
The Bone Thugs cd “Strenth And Loyality” is the first major Bone Thugs cd to be released since they parted ways with Ruthless Records for Full Surface and Swizz Beats. If you have been a Bone fan for a long time you will notice the changes, DJ U-Neek is …

Pink Floyd - The Division Bell (1994)
I hate this album. I hate it just because this is the last Pink Floyd album, for good. That’s the only reason, other than that, this is the first Pink Floyd album I got to listen to as a whole, and the song that made me listen, was High …
The Rolling Stones - Casino Boogie (Song)

Duck Sauce - Barbra Streisand - Single
You have to wonder how some people manage to get a song in the charts, especially high in the charts and for me this is one of them.
Barbra Streisand by Duck Sauce I just feel is a little pointless. Why Barbra was chosen as the focal point for …
The River by Good Charlotte
The River by Good Charlotte is a song about how beautiful can not stay beautiful. this song is about how this person got baptized in the river and now they believe. This song to me mainly talks about sins and how the kids should find their way back home …
Shure SHR840 Headpones
I received these headphones almost a year ago during Christmas. Once you put them on your head there is no going back. As somebody who is an avid music listener, my everyday experience with my favorite artists has been forever changed. After several pairs of cheap twenty dollar headphones …

GHS Electric Boomers guitar strings
This is a review for GHS Electric Boomers guitar strings. These have been around since 1964 and have been a standard in the industry. The great thing about these is the price and consistency of the strings. I’ve been through every brand of string you could imagine and I’m …
The Corrs Unplugged Video

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 …
Elvis Presley: Always On My Mind
This Elvis Presley album realeased by RCA AFL in 1985, Always On My Mind, was a hard one to find for me. I already have most of the songs on other Elvis albums, but since it’s Elvis, I still wanted it nonetheless.
I do find myself a bit disappointed, though. …
Jordin Sparks album: Jordin Sparks
Let me just say it’s a shame this album took too long to catch on. Jordin sparks has incredible vocal talents. I mean, she was just born to be a singer. I love her look; she’s not super thin and I hope she never goes that way; she’s just …
Breakdown by Jack Johnson
I love Jack Johnson because he seems to put out some very upbeat and positive songs. It’s about time that someone put out more positive songs than they do negative or depressing songs. This song is about the train breaking down. He’s ready to break down, sounds like he …
Mono-Karelia (Opus 2)
Mono is a post-rock band from Japan that has amazed the fans of Mogwai Godspeed You! Black Emperor etc with their powerful mixture of guitar cascades and symphonic soundscape beauty. Karelia begins in the lowest possible tempo, but rises slowly to a ravaging sound, not the tiniest bit angry, …

Airplanes Pt. 2 - B.o.B ft. Eminem & Hayley Williams
Great and Inspirational. That are just two words of the very many that I could come up with to describe this fantastic song. This is a second version of the song “Airplanes”. It includes its original artists B.o.B and Hayley Williams of Paramore, but it also includes Eminem, a …
Britney Spears
Talking about Britney Spears, well she has a pretty face but I don’t like her voice. She may be famous because she is good at dancing but I would rather listen to Mandy Moore who is also a contempory young singer. Mandy can also do …
He’s Just Not That Into You Soundtrack

Woodstock: 3 Days of Peace and Music

The Rolling Stones - Back Street Girl (Song)
Back Street Girl is a song by The Rolling Stones which appears on their record Between The Buttons. This track starts off with a nice and melodic acoustic guitar pattern in the introduction of this song and also features what sounds to be a faint recorder as well. Jagger …
The Cranberries
I was 16 (now I’m 21) when I started listening to The Cranberries. They were the ones who made me like music in general, and they’re the ones I’ll probably always hold in my heart. And that is why I’m really biased when it comes to this particular band, …
Mama - My Chemical Romance
My Chemical Romance, The Black Parade. An album that is part of many people’s adolescence, at least when it comes to my generation (I’m 26). They were pretty popular between goths/emos/punks at the time, which after all isn’t all that long ago, and “The Black Parade” was the album …
