Star Track is a song by Jefferson Airplane which appears on their record Crown Of Creation. The song starts off with a guitar part with a moderate tempo before the vocals come in pretty quickly. The vocal delivery strikes me as somewhat laid-back which gives the song a very …

The first thing I want to say is that Extraordinary Girl actually has an introduction which you couldn’t have predicted and I simply have to praise Green Day for this. I know that in a lot of the songs I’m reviewing for this record I’m saying that they’re predictable …

A new band has recently come onto my radar–Radical Something. They are a three man group composed of rapper Loggy (whose lyrics are meaningful and thought-provoking), singer Josh Cocktail (whose voice is smooth as silk), and producer Big Red (who does a great …

I first discovered the alternative band Lifehouse in 2001 when I heard their single Hanging By a Moment. I loved the song and Jason Wade’s voice so much that I had to buy their album, No Name Face. Usually an album has one or two songs that I do …

This UK Band, singing their hit single titled, Back Here is one of the best songs ever sung by this band. And this band is none other than BBMak. I don’t know whether the BB and the Mak should be close or separated, but that’s more or less …

AC/DC Plug Me In is a DVD box set of AC/DC’s performances and music videos throughout the years. I’m a big fan of AC/DC and this was a must have for me! I literally spent about 4 hours watching all of the videos and behind the scenes …

Listening to this song when Im totally mad about something, it makes you realize what good music really is. It provokes an emotion inside of you, thats exactly what this song does. Eminem may be known for his dirty lyrics and choice language but he is one of the …

John Michael Montgomery sings a song called “The Little Girl”. It is a very sad song because it tells the story of a little girl who used to hide behind the couch when her parents would fight until the night that her dad killed her mom out of jealousy …

Lil’ Kim
“Whoa”
The Naked Truth
Queen Bee Entertainment/Atlantic Records
As far as I can see, Lil’ Kim is the only rap artist I have across who doesn’t favor having too many singles and music videos out from an album. “Hardcore” had “No Time”, “Crush On You”, and “Not Tonight”; “The Notorious K.I.M.” …

When I first heard about the band Plain White Ts I was a bit hesitant to listen to their music as I usually am with a lot of these young, modern and popular bands. This is because I think that many of these bands seem to have a very …

For some reason, I feel like I shouldn’t like the band Cracker—¦ but I do anyway. I suppose it’s what the band calls “Cracker Soul” that moves me. It’s that intangible there is in music that is added by pure feeling. Cracker songs are simple; easy chord progressions repeated …

I have mixed feelings about David Cook’s new single. It’s a good single but it sounds like all the other rock-y tunes out there on the main stream. I’m getting kind of tired of the sound. He’s so talented. I know that is his genre of music but I …

Overview —“ Peace Sells, another music video and single released by Megadeth for their second effort, Peace Sells—¦ But Whose Buying, showcases the band continuing on with an aggressive tone, but more mature lyrics on this track compared to the previous single, Wake Up Dead. Peace Sells is one …

Avenged Sevenfold is the band Avenged Sevenfold’s 5th album, and is obviously self-titled. It is a great album with very little screaming, and extremely skillful guitar solos. Sadly, some songs on the album, like “A Little Piece of Heaven” are incredibly messed up, and really have no musical value …

“No Rain” is a song by alternative rock band, Blind Melon who came to fame through this popular song that gives you the feeling of the peaceful and psychedelic era of the 1960’s all over again.

The Call Of Ktulu, the first instrumental by Metallica, is the second track on Ride The Lightning where I feel Metallica truly prove that they’re a lot more than simply a thrash band, these musicians certainly knew what they were doing (The first song I felt this with was …

Overview - Grateful Dead From The Mars Hotel, the seventh album by The Grateful Dead, is an album that’s a lot more upbeat and energetic than their past three efforts: Wake Of The Flood, American Beauty, and Workingman’s Dead. On Wake Of The Flood, you could tell that the …

Josef K were a short-lived four-piece post-punk band. The paranoia and brittleness implicit in their namesake, the protagonist in Frank Kafka’s “The Trial” was echoed by their sound. They played spare, taut, danceable discount funk. For those looking for comparison, this can be likened to Fear of Music era …

Overview —“ Nimrod, Green Day’s fifth album is an album which I personally feel takes them backwards rather than forwards. I’ll say that I thought both Dookie and Insomniac were very good albums with very little filler on them, this album is a bit different. To be fair, there’s …

This song start starts with piano playing while the vocalist—¦. Of Alias is singing the first stanza. For the first part of the song, the singer already gave his best vocal performance up to the chorus. He is the most powerful male voice. I like him now after Michael …

This album has a weird title, and God knows this is a rather bad one. I like Oasis a lot. I love their first three records. And I love the singing of Liam Gallagher. Liam is a very gifted singer. His voice is a gift from above. But this …

B.Y.O.B. the opening track of System Of A Down’s double record Mezmerize/Hypnotize is what I would consider to be among their most aggressive work throughout the past few records. The song opens up with a guitar riff by Malakian which is quite aggressive and quick before giving way to …

There is not a year that goes by that I don’t happily listen to my Bing Crosby Sings Yuletide Favorites CD. This is classic holiday music, and it’s done with simplicity and a joy of the season. For the most part, it’s the crooner doing what he …

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.
The wait was well worth it. The lead track, “Why Wait” sums up what I would say …

I really like air supply’s music. I have heard “I Can’t let go” before but I did not know who sang that song. Until one time a friend of ours sang this song. I was really amazed because of the lyrics it gives. The song is really beautiful. Since …

I have to say I’m digging Akon’s song Freedom on his new album also titled Freedom. I think the song probably clicks with me because Akon is an immigrant’s son and my parents were immigrants too.
In a time like this when a lot of people don’t like immigrants, a …

I am not thoroughly familiar with Kanye West’s previous works, but I have listened to his recently released single with Rihanna, “Famous” and I can definitely say that this man is some kind of a genius!
I can certainly remember the time when everyone was angry with Rihanna and him …

Kellie Pickler pokes fun at a man who has dropped her for someone else only to realize that life isn’t as great as he thought it was going to be with the new girl. It is an awesome song for women who have been treated in exactly this same …
