When I was much younger in the nineteen nineties, one of my favourite music artistes was the musician Alanis Morissette. At the time I had no idea what her name was even though I would see her music videos play every Saturday especially. I remember even seeing her perform …

Overview —“ Down In It, the first single and music video released by Nine Inch Nails for their debut record, Pretty Hate Machine, takes the chaos of the song and matches it with a video. Although this sounds appealing, at least to me, the execution in the music video …

This female-fronted rock band has been around on the indie circuit for almost 10 years. The singer Chibi really reminds me of Fairuza Balk (the actress) in looks and expressions, and she has a great little-girl voice that can also get dark and growly. The band sort of travels …

It appears that P. Diddy has gone from the Shiny Suit Man to the mannequin in the Bloomingdales department store window. Seriously, he looks like he came out of a Hugo Boss advertisement or something in this music video. “Come …

This song is very unique and different from a lot of other songs that I have heard. The first time I heard it I loved it. It’s one of my favorite songs right now and I really love it. I could probably listen to it over and over again …

One of the songs that I’ve recently heard by the band Avenged Sevenfold is the song, So Far Away. I like this song because it is a tribute to the drummer who passed away about a year ago. It starts off with a slow acoustic guitar being strummed …

Right now, this is my favorite dance song. This song features the words and melody of a slower song at points but then when you add in Flo Rida the different points in the song blend to create a great dance and party song. My favorite line is “I …

40 Oz. To Freedom is a song by Sublime and the title track of their debut record. Opening up with a percussive rhythm and a reggae guitar part, I can thankfully report that this song already starts off with a better sound than Waiting For My Ruca. Whereas the …

Donny Osmond: This is the Moment CD has some jazzy elements to it. I’ve always loved Donny and I’ve seen him perform many times. It’s always a pleasure.

This is the song that is always playing in the radio during Mother’s Day and Women’s day. Even the variety programs, the artists there are singing this song when the occasion always involved women. I am not a fan of Billy Joel but I like his songs absolutely. And …

What’s Left Of The Flag is a song by Flogging Molly which appears on their record Drunken Lullabies. The vocals waste no time coming into this track as they start right away simultaneously with a violin part as well as an acoustic guitar strumming a simple pattern in the …

Sugar is a track which appears on System Of A Down’s self-titled debut record. I believe that among the songs on that first record, Sugar is probably the most well known, along with War, because of the music videos made for them. Sugar certainly demonstrates System Of A Down …

The craziness that is Asia; remains to captivate me to this day from when I first heard one of their songs called “Heat of the Moment.” It’s one of those one hit wonder bands from the eighties that turned out to be way more talented and enjoyable than the …

I have never been a true prodigy fan having only really listened too their classic songs. However, once I got my hands on Invaders Must Die I feel in love with it. Most of my friends before all listened to their previous albums and they had said that this …

The band Blue Oyster cult has a really big 80s hit off their album The Revölution by Night in 1983. It was the largest single off that album. This song was featured on a poor selling Cult album but I really like it because it fits the time of …

I must say that I am a huge fan of Miss Lana. Ever since her topnotch work with her debut album “Born to Die” I was consistently waiting for her next record to come out.
There’s no one in the industry with a more soothing and delicate voice. I never …

Lost In Hollywood, the final track of the first half of System Of A Down’s double record, Mezmerize/Hypnotize, is probably the track on this half of the record which I would consider to be the most powerful. What’s particularly significant about this track is that it really is Daron …

Look out for this name: Justin Bieber. He’s around 14, I think and this kid will really go far. In fact, he has experience singing and rumors have it that he has or is going to have a singing album coming up soon. I first saw him …

Overview - Although Side IV of The Wall isn’t as good as side III, it still has some very good songs on it and wraps up the story behind this album very well in the end. In fact I’d have to say that this side has two of my …

If you were to ask me about a love ballad that reminds me of an old western movie I’d have to say it would Poncho and Lefty by Willie Nelson. This song is about a couple of friends that robbed a bank and then became outlaws running from the …

Overview —“ Orion, Metallica’s second instrumental and penultimate track on Master Of Puppets, is the song that I believe I consider to be my favorite out of Metallica’s nine albums and career. The pure musical genius that goes into Orion is unmatched by any Metallica instrumentals to precede or …

If you are a fan of blues music like I am, than you will find the cd “American Made World Played” by Les Paul and a wonderful lineup of other musicians as awesome as I do. I found this gem quite by accident, and it remains my all-time
favourite blues CD. …

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. …

I believe that world-class diva Mariah Carey’s has it made in the Hero single. Why, she wrote it herself, and sang it as well, and it happens to be one of the songs most popularly requested of her at concerts and charity events. It was Carey herself …

Billy Gilman: One Voice CD is the CD that started it all for this country singer. I have always been very impressed with Gilman. He had the right attitude as a young boy, apparently thanks to parents who kept him grounded and had the right kind of …

My fince bought me this Madonna CD. We were malling that day back in the Philippines, it was this November 21, 2008. Since then I started listening to the CD, for a fact that I am a number one Madonna fan. I never get tired listening to …

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 …

Aaliyah

Director: Paul Hunter
Aaliyah followed up her successful Sophomore effort, “One In A Million”, with the third self-titled album, “Aaliyah”, and the first single and video being “We Need A Resolution” where she reunited with video hit-maker Paul Hunter - this is quite possibly the least memorable …

Yellow is a song by Coldplay which appears on their record Parachutes. Opening up with a melodic guitar pattern, the track soon gives way to a slightly more electric guitar lead, but the song still manages to maintain it’s very melodic feel and sound to it. Chris Martin comes …

Ain’t No Telling is a track by Jimi Hendrix which appears on Axis: Bold As Love. This track is extremely short at only two minutes in length and the song wastes no time getting right into the bulk of the music. I can describe the track as being very …

I do believe that MTV is trying to hype of LL Cool J and has put together a bunch of mini spots to show that this 30-something (almost 40) rapper is still just as relevant as he was when he was performing songs like “Mama Said Knock You Out.” …

“Thunder” by Boys Like Girls had been a hit maker for a couple of months already. Though I didn’t like the beat so much, it appealed to me through its lyrics and the choice of words they made. My sister was also into this song. However, playing it over …

Boom Boom Pow is the new song from Black Eyed Peas. Like their previous song, it’s still a lot of beat, groove, and really nice to dance.
But, first time I hear this single, I can’t directly recognize that is the Blak Eyed Peas, because though the music is still …

Black Limousine is a song by The Rolling Stones which appears on their album Tattoo You. The track starts off with a clear blues rhythm and right away you definitely get the sense that this will be a blues-rock song. I don’t mind this at all since it’s better …
