Boney M Gold
Long before the fiasco of Milli Vanilli, producer Frank Farian gathered Liz Mitchell, Marcia Barrett, Maizie Williams and Bobby Farrell together to form Boney M. Boney M was one of the most prominent Euro Disco bands of the 1970’s and 1980’s, particularly in Britain. While Mitchell and Barrett did …
Watching You by Rodney Atkins
This song is a great example for all the parents out there. And I like how the lyrics convey a serious issue in a very comical way. A lot of parents don’t believe that the way they act and what they say affects their children. But it really does. …
The Doors - Ship Of Fools (Song)
Ship Of Fools, a song by The Doors which appears on Morrison Hotel, opens up with an interesting rhythm and is then led by Morrison’s vocals on the song. I believe Ship Of Fools is a good example of one of those songs where the music and the vocals …
Stealing Cinderella by Chuck Wicks
I haven’t liked much by Chuck Wicks, but this is one of my favorite songs. Songs about fathers always get to me since I lost mine when I was a young teenager. I will never get the chance to experience moments like these with my father, so this song …
Deeper Than The Holler
There is just something about country music and the way it tells a story that does not compare with any other type of music. One of my favorite music artist is Randy Travis. His song “Deeper Than the Holler” is an example of a great country love ballad. It …
Vol.3 (The Subliminal Verses), Slipknot Album
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. …
Brain Sync - Guided Meditation CD
While I have listened to many meditation music in the past, I highly recommend Brain Sync - Guided Meditation because of its quality. The good thing is, the CD comes with two versions - one with instructions which you can follow as you go along, and the other one …
Robbie Williams - Angels - Single
To this date, still know as Robbie Williams best ever song, though it’s often forgotten that it never actually reached number 1 in the U.K.

Ultimate Power Ballads
A great CD is Ultimate Power Ballads. I love this Cd so much. It has got some really great songs on it that I grew up with from the 1970’s and 1980’s. It brings back great memories and emotions.
I love the song “Beth” by KISS. …
Taylor Swift’s Love Story Single
I love Taylor Swift’s Love Story single. Yet again, the artist has come up with an original composition. Well, nothing is original in this world anymore. In fact, the singer based her song on a classic love story of Romeo and Juliet. She has no …
Barry Manilow: Singin’ with the Big Bands CD
I really loved the Barry Manilow: Singin’ with the Big Bands CD. It was near perfection in my opinion. I love Manilow, and I love big band, even though I don’t listen to it all that much; still, I do enjoy it greatly. Put the two …
The Jimi Hendrix Experience - Ain’t No Telling (Song)
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 …

One less lonely girls is the second single of Justin Bieber from his album My World. The lyric is generic co-written and produced by Usher, Ezekiel Lewis, Balewa Muhammad, Sean Hamilton and Hyuk Shin.

Nine Inch Nails - The Downward Spiral

Aly & AJ: Chemicals React (song)
Chemicals react is one of my favorite songs of all time. This is done by my favorite sister duo, Aly & AJ. This song is about having a chemical reaction with someone. This is considered a love song, and it’s a darn good one at that; if you like …
Beyond the Sea - Finding Nemo
I reviewed about Amanda Peet on Ellen earlier on, and it made me remember the show Finding Nemo, since her daughter loves Dory the character in the movie so much.
Speaking of Finding Nemo, there is this one song that came to my mind all of a sudden and …
Decade In The Sun by Stereophonics
Make no mistake about the tracks in Decade In The Sun by Stereophonics. If you have the interest of an Indie band style type of music and you are really looking for nice type of tunes; with a slow-rock bit of an influence, kind of country indie rock, I’d …
She Won’t Be Lonely Long, by Clay Walker
I haven’t heard much from Clay Walker lately that I actually like, but his new song “She Won’t Be Lonely Long” is amazing. I have always like him since as far back as I can remember but lately he hasn’t been putting out that much wonderful music. In the …
My All Cover Version by Siti Nurhaliza
My All Cover Version by Siti Nurhaliza is awesome, and I’ve listened to her singing this cover version from Mariah Carey before. I really love it, and Siti sang using her own style of voice range and the sound is very cheery and awesome sounding.
For those of …

Tonight: Franz Ferdinand
Before Franz Ferdinand’s debut self-titled album released in 2004, Scotland has only Rod Stewart, Shirley Manson and Annie Lennox, who each of them has something different than just singing. Image which was built by Alex Kapranos, Bob Hardy, Nick McCarthy and Paul Thomson, was like white boy disco, a …

The Grateful Dead - Aoxomoxoa
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 …

The band Korn
The rock band Korn sucks and are way too over rated. I mean looking at the guys first glance I though they were a bunch of women, they all look way too feminine to have been singing hardcore music. I am saying this right now that all there songs …

Erotic Lounge (Deluxe Edition)
This Erotic Lounge (Deluxe Edition) was borrowed from my friend the other day, as I wanted something sexy to listen to, and she recommended me to this CD.

Bob Dylan - If You See Her, Say Hello (Song)
If You See Her, Say Hello is a track from Bob Dylan’s album Blood On The Tracks and certainly one of the songs on that record which I believe does a good job of conveying quite a bit of emotion and power behind both Dylan’s lyrics and vocals. I …
The Beatles - Julia (Song)
Julia is the final track which appears on the first disk of The Beatles’ White Album. An interesting fact about Julia is that this is the only Beatles track throughout their entire catalogue where Lennon plays on the track, and Lennon alone. No other Beatle is heard on this …
Megadeth - Sweating Bullets (Music Video)
Overview —“ Sweating Bullets, another single and music video released by Megadeth for their fifth record, Countdown To Extinction, is a song whose lyrics deal with a mental disorder, dissociative identity disorder to be specific.

Sounds of the Earth: Dusk - Sounds Of The Earth Series

Green Day - Minority (Music Video)
Overview —“ Minority, the first music video released by Green Day in support of their album Warning, is a music video that I personally think is for one of Green Day’s catchiest songs. Warning was the album that showed signs of where Green Day would be going for their …
Green Day - One Of My Lies (Song)
One Of My Lies is a song by Green Day which appears on their album Kerplunk. The track starts out with a pretty raw sounding three-chord guitar riff before the bass and drums join in. Something I like about the sound thus far is that the production really isn’t …
Just Like Heaven by The Cure
Just Like Heaven is a song by The Cure that I have always liked. This song came out on the wave of the new, alternative rock and the end of the new wave genre. Just Like Heaven’s sound is soft contains a lot of blended synthesizers, but it also …
Baby 81 2007 Album by Black Rebel Motorcycle Club
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), …

The Rolling Stones - Yesterday’s Papers (Song)
Yesterday’s Papers is a song by The Rolling Stones which appears on Between The Buttons. Something interesting about Yesterday’s Papers is that the track has sort of a psychedelic sound to it. For one, the background vocals seem to have sort of a fade in and out effect which …
The Mighty Rio Grande, song by This Will Destroy You
I have always been the kind of person who admires music. Not only is it an art, it finds a way into your soul. Music is able to be related to and in the moment when you find a certain song, you feel like you are no longer alone …
Shakira ft Wycleaf Jean Hips Don’t Lie
‘Hips Don’t Lie’ is one of great colaboration from two great singer, Shakira and Wycleaf Jean. Like its tittle, I guarantee that the song is can make your hips and yours body move.
