Greyhoundredux is a song by MGMT which appears on their first record, Climbing To New Lows. What’s interesting about Greyhoundredux is that it’s an instrumental track which surprised me to be honest. I mentioned in my review of Honey Bunny that you really can’t expect a young new band …

Scars by papa roach is a song I absolutely love because it describes how much a person can care for another person so much they are willing to be hurt just to help this other person but there is just so much you can do for a person. This …

Miley Cyrus is a Disney channel teen star and has broken into the music industry as well. I first heard her song “See You Again” on a local radio station here and immediately recognized it was her from the Hannah Montana series!
I actually really like her song and her …

It was during the summer of 2007. I walked into the library that was about 10 minutes from my uncle’s apartment. I went to the CD section and decided to try out some music that I hadn’t really listened to before. That’s when I saw the girl on the …

Eye Of The Beholder, the third track off of And Justice For All, is a track that I will admit I really don’t like very much in comparison to the rest of And Justice For All. I wouldn’t say that I strongly dislike the song or anything but I …

This keyboard was produced in 1998, and was one of Yamaha’s first keyboards to focus explicitly on re-creating DJ, club, dance, and hip hop sounds. As you scroll through the many pre-programmed beats in the machine, you’ll hear samples of “Lady” (D’Angelo), “Rapper’s Delight”, and even a …

This is the second album of Fall Out Boy that I’ve heard. It’s really good, but for some reason I love the first one (From Under the Cork tree) better. I was watching (guess what…) MTV (again! Is anyone seeing a pattern here?) and I saw the music video …

As Rush went into the 80’s their sounded changed a quite bit since they started out in the 1980’s. One of the songs they are most known for is the instrumental YYZ off the Moving Pictures album. The song has a really odd timing at the intro but it’t …

One of my favorite songs in the early 90’s is Out of the Blue by Debbie Gibson. It reminds me of my childhood were life was easy. There are no heavy problems, the only problems I had before was how I can answer my Math subject home works and …

“Only In Dreams” is the closing song off of the fantastic debut album of Weezer. This such a good song to close an equally good album. To my knowledge it is also the longest song ever recorded by Weezer, although I admit I haven’t really dabbled into any of …

Perfect Situation is a song by Weezer which appears on their album Make Believe. Opening up with a simple guitar line and drum rhythm which both do a good job of building the energy for the track, a more definitive rhythm is established after about twenty seconds into the …

U2 is an Irish rock band and they brought out an album a while back named “How to dismantle and atomic bomb.” This albums has some good music on it and one of the songs on this lineup is entitled Vertigo.
Vertigo starts off with the lead singer of …

This song is one of the realest country songs I have ever heard. My older sister wanted me to make her a country mp3 cd for Christmas, so that’s about one hundred or more songs. So I randomly came across this song, I didn’t even plan on listening to …

86 is a song by Green Day which appears on their album Insomniac. The track opens up with a very energetic drum rhythm before the bass and guitar join in after a pick scrape from Armstrong. As usual, Armstrong plays his characteristic three-chords but Dirnt’s bass line is pretty …

Recently late at night i turned on the tv bbc1 to find they where showing some footage of Amy Whinehouse at Glastonberry (for all you guys who arnt from the uk glastonberry is a huge festival where alot of stars play live).
It showed several songs of Amy who …

I believe in getting the compilations of the individual albums from the artists, they are better than the individual albums. The best assortments come with the “Best Of” series. Now this collection has the very well known tracks from Randy Crawford from Give Me The Night to Everything Must …

Godzilla Flick is a song by the Flaming Lips which appears on their album Hear It Is. Opening up with an acoustic guitar pattern, the vocals to the track come in pretty quickly and although I can hear hints of Coyne’s typical tone, it seems as if I’m listening …

Hosanna, Hosanna, Hosanna in the Highest! These words are already familiar with most of us as we hear it with other existing Christmas song. But this one is not a Christmas song but more of a worship song that really comes from the heart of the worship leader who …

I love LeAnn Rimes. The first time I heard the song How do I live I love her already. She has the most powerful vocal range although she sings it with less effort and she sounds country. Not only that, during that time I discovered her, I thought she …

Overview - Powerslave, Iron Maiden’s fifth effort, continues with the same energy and intensity the group showed on their previous effort, Piece Of Mind. However, it also demonstrates that the songwriting of Steve Harris is maturing even further, particularly on the last two tracks. While Piece Of Mind contained …

In March of 2010, Dreamworks released How to Train Your Dragon; a film about a boy named hiccup on a viking island where killing the dragons which raid the city is almost everything. Hiccup, however, is no ordinary boy and, unlike everybody else, is not strong and does have …

This is your typical hill billy and redneck song. It is quite obvious that the character in the song is a hardcore redneck. There is this girl who pulls up to his gas station with a Hollywood license plate and she wants directions to the interstate. So he gives …

Overview - Aoxomoxoa, the third album by The Grateful Dead, goes back more to traditional song structure and a lot further away from the experimental side they meddled with on Anthem Of The Sun, however you can still hear some pretty experimental sides on certain tracks. Also, the songs …

Minstrel Boy is a song by Bob Dylan which appears on his record Self Portrait. The song opens up with some background noise before a group of voices come in with the first vocal section in sort of a harmonized gospel-like sound, it’s an interesting idea but the sound …

I got a copy of this due to a recommendation from a good friend in the music biz that knows my taste pretty well and always seems to introduce me to things i like.
when he told me to seek this album out i had to call him to …

Journey is an incredible band that was created in 1973.During the seventies and early eighties they enjoyed the peak of their success and popularity.This collection of songs represents their radio friendly singles and hits.I have enjoyed listening to Journey ever since I was in High School.I remember cruising around …

“Plush” is to date The Stone Temple Pilots biggest hit. Although it appears as the second single released from their 1992 debut album “Core”, it happens to be the bands most notable song. That’s saying a lot considering the bands decently long career and all the heckling and criticism …

Apocalypse Please, the second track to appear on Muse’s record, Absolution, is the latest Muse song which I’ve currently found myself listening to over and over. I’m finding that with Muse I’m generally discovering one of their songs every few days which I simply can’t stop listening to, the …

I think that this album is a disappointment. I started listening to this album as soon as it was released, in 2004. And even then I immediately disliked what I heard. The music simply did not impress me then. I felt untouched and uninterested by the music I heard. …

Hail to the Thief is a really good record. I personally see this album as a return to form for Radiohead after some slightly dodgy albums, like Kid A and Amnesiac, in particular Amnesiac. The problem with those two albums, from my personal point of view, is that, when …

I am a hip hop artist who used to sing secular hip hop. I used to sing about the type of life I lived, which was a life of partying, sex, relentless pursuit of fast money, anger, pride and any other sinful thing you could think about. Until I …

The Great Destroyer is a song by Nine Inch Nails which appears on their album Year Zero. The song starts out with a synthesizer and an electric drumkid which gives the song a pretty artificial sound to be hoenst, and not exactly in a good way. Reznor comes in …

It’s your love by Tim McGraw and faith hill is a song I love. It talks about how this guy wants to leave but can’t because how strong this woman’s love is for him. He now wants to stay with her because her love changed him. This song is …

Label: Columbia
Director: Melina and Beyonce
“Upgrade U” is the fourth single and music video (following “Deja Vu”, “Ring the Alarm”, and “Irreplaceable”) from Beyonce’s second album titled “B-Day”. Was this music video directed by Hype Williams? Oh wait, no, it was actually co-directed by …

The Manhasset Clarinet stand is a cone shaped stand that comes apart into two pieces. One piece opens into a 3 legged stand which can be screwed onto the cone shaped upper piece.
Likes: One thing that I really like about this stand is the ease of carrying from …

Mistah FAB is a great rapper. I really like and enjoy his music. He is a good rapper from the city of Oakland CA. He is known as the freestyle king because he is a great battle rapper who destroys rappers on the mic. He is part of the Bay …

The Handshake is the penultimate song on MGMT’s second release, Oracular Spectacular. The start of this track is interesting in that it features a prominent and distinct piano opening which is a nice break from all of the synthesizers. The Handshake is similar to Pieces Of What in that …

Criminal is a song by Eminem which is the finishing track for his record The Marshal Mathers LP. The song opens up with a spoken word section from Eminem which is nothing impressive in itself, but I will say is a clever segue and fluid transition into the bulk …

I don’t know about other people. And I don’t know whether they see the same things as I do. But have you seen other musical talented people in the musical world, that have grown so much in performace, in atttitude, in passion as Beyonce? I mean surely there is …

This song makes no sense, but then again, it’s being sung by a teenager who knows nothing really about love. Not only that, this song really annoying due to that fact that it’s hard on the ears. The majority of this song is repeating itself over and over again …

This album is the pinnacle of Bob Dylan’s career.During this time he reinvented the way in which the public experiences popular music.His songwriting skills are without a doubt intense, humorous, porphetic, whimsical, and highly entertaining.I have never in my life heard a man’s voice that is completely distinctive and …

R. Kelly
“I Believe I Can Fly”
“Space Jam” Soundtrack
Jive Records
Director: Hype Williams
R. Kelly decides to put away the sex-me-up attitude and persona for a little while and does a PG gig for a change. Seriously, I would love to know who on planet Earth thought R. Kelly and “Space Jam” …

Rascal Flatts is one of the best country music groups that modern times have seen. They have a clear cut set of values when it comes to the music they record which gives them an awesome reputation along with the a very successful career. I love Rascal Flatts from …

LOVE GUN
Another “live in studio” effort that would be the album KISS’ tour would revolve around on the band’s first excursion into Japan.
Classics such as LOVE GUN and CHRISTINE SiXTEEN are side by side underrated gems such as PLASTER CASTER and one of Peter Criss’ WORST songs ever HOOLIGAN. …

Overview - Highway 61 Revisited, Dylan’s sixth effort and his first to feature a full backing band, is filled with brilliant songwriting and excellent lyrics, something I’ve always expected of Dylan after hearing a lot of his work. This album contains some of Dylan’s most well known songs of …

Sometimes I search for inspiration from a song because I really do think that music has the ability to inspire and makes us feel better.
I am separated from my sons mum and therefore I don’t see him everyday and it’s not easy, but I heard this song recently and …

Taste is a song by Animal Collective and the eighth track on their record Merriweather Post Pavilion. Opening up instrumentally briefly, the vocals quickly join in the mix with a delivery that leaves something to be desired in terms of flow. Having just come out of a track which …

If you aren’t familiar with “Fun House,” then not only are you missing out on one of the greatest rock albums ever made…but you haven’t even HEARD true rock music, not the way it’s meant to be, at least. This album is everything that’s great about rock: it’s dirty, …

She’s like the wind by Lumidee featuring Tony Sunshine is a song I like even better than the original which is done by Patrick Swazy. This song is a beautiful redo and I love listening to it over and over again. The words and the melody are like running …
