I heard this track the other day, can’t remember where now, but it took me back years to when my mum and dad used to listen to Status Quo and I remembered how much I love this song.
Perhaps it has extra relevance to me now as my friend is …

I was watching an interview on Melinda Doolittle the other day and she was talking about her new album and all. Since I had followed her talent in American Idol before, I decided to get Coming Back to You by Melinda Doolittle. Her first album, I should think.
This …

I’ve liked Snow Patrol since I first saw them at Isle of Wight festival years ago. And I really like this album … infact, I personally prefer it to their deubut ‘Final Straw’ which was hugely popular at the time, and still contains their best known and best loved …

Mastodon is literally not your average Metal band. In our American wasteland of poor excuses for Metal(with the exception of Tool, Deftones, System of a Down, a small handful of other exceptional bands), Mastodon reigns supreme as one of the top bands to emerge from America’s underground scene. Usually, …

People II 2: Still Peoplin’ is a song by Andrew Jackson Jihad which appears on their 2011 release, Knife Man. Opening up with a light vocal section, an acoustic guitar rhythm can be heard strumming along before the first verse comes in which features a vocal delivery where the …

Following up the lackluster 2006 release “The Information” should not be a difficult thing for loser iconoclast Beck, but “Modern Guilt” is yet another disappointing effort in a period of artistic decline that began with 2005’s “Guero”. It was in 2005 that Beck began to recycle ideas he had …

Overview - Disraeli Gears, Cream’s second album, is a great musical album and has strong vocal performances as well in just about every track on here. I will say that most of the record is more laid back and mellow but they’re are still some great energetic tracks on …

I love Timbaland, and he’s always so sensual and melodramatic sometimes when it comes to his songs but they’re really wholesome, and when I heard Katy Perry was going to sing her too I was very ecstatic as I love her, and although they might have come off as …

This tenor is off the chart! I saw Yu Qiang Dai perform with the Los Angeles Opera in Puccini’s opera Turandot and immediately after I purchased his first CD. He has a powerful, rich voice and is an equal to a younger Pavarotti. This Chinese-born tenor sang Nessun Dorma …

MFEO by Kavana is very catchy and I used to listen to this particular track over and over again after I came back from school.
I even bought Kavana’s single of MFEO. Yes, such was my craziness during those times and I would smile whenever I think about …

Gavin DeGraw is an American singer which specializes in the rock and pop rock genres of music. He is a very talented individual as far as I am concerned and his new song entitled “In Love with a Girl” seems to be very popular.
The first time I heard this …

Troye Sivan is really showing huge promise for an explosive end of 2015. His debut album “Blue Neighbourhood” will be released on December 4, competing (unfortunately) with the big band Coldplay and in the shadow of Adele’s triumphant return. Either way, I still believe Troye will certainly deliver, may …

This album is fantastic on numerous levels. Probably the most fantastic thing about it is that it was released in 1998. When you listen to this album, it is difficult to believe that. Combinations of rap and rock music were very popular, but not round at that time as …

I remember when I first heard Tainted Love on a radio station when I was visiting the United States. I was immediately hooked to this song but little did I realize it was quite an old song already. About 16 years old or just a bit more really.

Justin Bieber. You love him. You despise him. You are in the middle. Regardless everyone has their own distinct opinion of Justin Bieber. If any song is going to convince Bieber haters to see a positive side of the singer it’s his inspirational song “Pray.” Or it will just …

Most of my friends own a copy of this by now. I don’t know, it just seems perfect for any occassion as a present. It’s also the best starting point to listen to The Cranberries, since no album sums up their career more, than this one has. Most best-of …

The new two-member (Mike Sheppard & Vicky Backle) indie band, What Was Lost, from Vernon, New Jersey seem to have a unique and emotional style. I’m not too sure whether it’s the slow, sad voices or the crying of the guitar that makes this band so touching, but …

This album is very special to me. It started listening to this record at a very interesting time in my life, when I was about thirteen years old, and this album will always remind me of that time, and will always remain special to me for that reason. As …

Secret Heart performed by Curtis Stigers is a very good to excellent album performed in a male jazz singer style similar to Harry Connick Jr. and Michael Buble.
My favorite song was the familiar Days of Wine and Roses” that Stigers makes his own by using a more bouncy arrangement …

This album is all but a display of what a good pop/electronica album should be. A friend bought me this record last year, much to my surprise. I knew I liked “Here In Your Arms”, which had been introduced as a single beforehand, but I didn’t know any of …

Overview —“ Sweet Children, Green Day’s third EP, is surprisingly what I would consider their worst release yet. I figured that since it was released later than either of their first EPs, 1,000 Hours or Slappy, the songwriting would’ve improved and everything like that but this wasn’t the case …

This song, Irreplaceable by Beyonce is so describing my love life right now. I just love it and whenever I have moments that I think my boyfriend is not appreciate me enough, I would put on this music and listen to it on repeat mode.
I like the …

Years ago when I was still just becoming familiar with the hard rock and metal genres of music, a late friend of mine introduced me to a band called “Lacuna Coil”. I’d heard gothic bands before, but their music style was almost completely different from anything I’d heard at the …
