“Watching You” is a song by popular country music and southern rock artist, Rodney Atkins. The song itself is perfect for fathers day! It is one I hold very close to my heart and very dear to me, the lyrics in this song are beautiful and it dictates the …

A friend of mine who decided that they were going to get me hooked to indie pop music as well, decided that they were going to introduce me to an Australian indie pop band called “The Lucksmiths”. I think that they started their band in the nineteen nineties or …

I only got introduced to the singer Elise Estrada after I heard her song entitled Lipstick on the radio. I thought, what great song it was, it has all the feelings of a young woman who pretends she is not in love with a man to whom she …

Jordin Sparks is such an awesome person. Not only is she young, but she is also talented and I think for someone with a nice image as her, she has a nice big voice to boot too. However, the songs inside are quite on average. I think …

This album is really great. I was actually very surprised to find out that this album was not an actual album of new material but it was a compilation album that consisted of the songs Kid Rock had written for his early albums in the 1990s, when he was …

Cherry pie by Warrant is a song that most guys I know now days still like cause of the lyrics even though it seems perfectly harmless it’s not sorry. This song is another one that if weren’t for my friends I would have never grown to like it as …

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), …

When I first started playing the drums about one year ago, I acquired a pair of Pro-Mark Millennium II sticks. These are size 5A, which is perfect for my playing style (drum kit - mostly alternative, rock and contemporary Christian music). Tagged “The Natural,” this pair of sticks is …

“Diddy”
The Saga Continues…
Bad Boy Entertainment

“Diddy” follows “Let’s Get It” and “Bad Boy For Life” in the line of singles and music videos from his third album “The Saga Continues…”. So far, P. Diddy has established a solid track record of successful and entertaining singles …

Unfortunately the excellent Neuropa album “The Blitz”, with its (admittedly fairly obvious) World War 2 type plane design on the front, is not easily obtainable in physical form in the United Kingdom, although it is offered by Amazon in individual track form as MP3 downloads. This is rather a …

Live in Hollywood was made in RBD’s first L.A. (U.S.A) concert in January 2006 (Jan. 21st) in Los Angeles’s famous Pantages Theater. This cd is very cool and fun, because rbd is one of the best musical group that I already have seen. Their musics are impressive because there …

The Downward Spiral is the title track for a record released by Nine Inch Nails. The track starts off with just some noise in the background which gradually grows louder and certainly helps in creating a very dark and eerie mood which is really just rampant throughout this entire …

Since the start of the I got your back song of Keri Hilson and T.I. I started to be a fan of Keri. Actually while watching the video of I got your back, I came to see this another video of her, another single coming from her album No …

This CD is definitely a must have to all Twilight fanatics. I considered myself as one so I rushed to the music store to grab a copy. I like its packaging with Bella and Edward on the front cover of the CD case. However, I was …

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 …

Take a bow is sad song from Rihanna, I think this song is the opposite from the famous Rihanna’s song, Umbrella, because this song it’s not cheer up and not energic.
This song is tell about a girl who always cheated by her boyfriend. He always forgiven, but he always …

Crush is a song by The Smashing Pumpkins which appears on their first record, Gish. Opening up with a nice melodic atmosphere, the band establishes possibly the most interesting sound I’ve heard thus far on the record. Though the parts are simple, the interplay among the different instruments is …

I’m not a real Major Lazer fan. I’ve only been really listening to them since 2013, a little before I went to see them in concert for the first time. While I do like a few of their songs, I have to say that I’m not as hugely invested in …

Long time, no see. The boys from sweden show their work once more.
This is an album wich many of the new listeners will find attractive, though old ones will find rather dissapointing. It´s more cliché than ever, leaves you with a feeling you have listened to the whole album …

Brian Wilson’s Grammy Award winning album “SMiLE” set the bar quite high for the aging Beach Boy. Doubtless, Wilson is past his prime, is somewhat obsolete, and indeed, sometimes sounds quite tired on “SMiLE”’s follow-up album “That Lucky Old Sun”.
“That Lucky Old Sun” takes its title from the titular …

Big girls don’t cry is by Fergie. It is a song about a woman talking about her boyfriend breaking up with her and she is saying big girls don’t cry because she is not crying. She figured it would happen. The woman also in the song talks about …

Tool’s 10,000 days has been a welcome addition to my music collection, in early 2006 I picked this album up soon after it’s releases, the album packaging was immence, a digipak with 3d glasses and matching booklet, I have never been as impressed with album packaging as I was …

Everything Is is the first EP released by Neutral Milk Hotel which is comprised of four tracks: Everything Is, Snow Song Pt. 1, Aunt Eggma Blowtorch, and Tuesday Moon. In terms of the diversity of the record, I would say that the EP does do a pretty good job …

If you want a song that really inspires you and shows you that you should never give in, then perhaps We Made It by Busta Rhymes ft Linkin Park is a song for you.
Some are not keen on rapping but Busta nails this intro whilst the piano of Linkin …

Panic is a song by Animal Collective which appears on their record Here Comes The Indian. Opening with a vocal section, the song drags on in this manner for several minutes before entering into an instrumental section which is no more interesting. Unfortunately, Panic strikes me as incredibly similar …

I love to play my guitars everyday and I could play all day long. I just can’t live without my guitars. I am doing a review on the Les Paul Special 2. This guitar is $150 at Guitar Center. To be honest, the Special 2 is a good guitar …

Hurt is a song by Nine Inch Nails which is the final track on their concept album, The Downward Spiral. Something to note about this song was that it was covered by Johnny Cash before the time of his death, but I’ll be focusing on the version by Nine …

All Within My Hands is a song by Metallica which appears on their record St. Anger. The song opens up with a fast tempo and the unfortunate drum tone that Lars Ulrich had throughout this entire album. Nevertheless, Hetfield’s riff can slightly make up for it, despite its …

A Fine Frenzy is a female vocalist (her real name is Alison Sudol). She hasn’t been very popular on the radio or on MTV or anything, but I really do enjoy her music. I think I first found it because she was one of artists featured on one of …

This Australian singer, Delta Goodrem makes some good music, or rather, sings some good music. I certainly think that she has some strong vocals and that if you are bored or just wanting to hear some love tunes, then go for this album. The title of her album …

Oh Comedy is a song by Neutral Milk Hotel which appears on their second album In the Aeroplane Over The Sea. Something that I should point out about this track is that it’s the longest song on the album at a bit over eight minutes long and I believe …

The Weeknd is definitely one of the most popular hitmaker right now. In case you are not familiar with his name, he was the one responsible for the huge hits “Can’t Feel My Face” and “The Hills” which were streaming giants when they were released. He also contributed to …

Serious is the opening song of Scars On Broadway’s self-titled debut record. As this being the first record, some fans were not sure what to expect from Daron Malakian, whether he’d go with the sound that he had in System Of A Down or whether he’d go in a …

“Vomit The Soul” is the 5th song off of Cannibal Corpse infamous album “Butchered at Birth”. This is classic death metal at it’s best. The album in general is genre defining, considering their albums released before this point of time had more thrash metal roots, I think with Butchered …

I was unimpressed by this release to a rather high extent. I think that the band did not go anywhere with this album, and it sounds rather backward and also kind of boring. Many of the songs on this album are cheap and forgettable, very easy to see through. …

Evisceration Plague is the band’s 11th full length album, released on February 3 of 2009, the album features producer Erik Rutan and was released on Metal Blade Records. The overall feel of the album if extremely heavy, if you know the band very well you will know they usually …

I love this song so much! I think it is so perfect. Since the beginning, it has a different appeal to me. It has a different feel. It’s so 1970’s but it’s so different. It feels like a song you can listen in the morning, in the evening, anytime …

Show me someone that claims they dislike Bon Jovi, give them a couple of drinks and then whack Living on a Prayer on the Jukebox. I have to say that im not sure I have seen many tracks get a better reaction when it’s been sang at a Karaoke …

The very first time I was exposed to the sounds of this Cape Town based band, I thought I was listening to the music of an international act, so good was the song —˜I’d like’, and when I later learned that it was a local group, my curiosity levels …

Canadee-i-o is a traditional song arranged and performed by Bob Dylan which appears on his record Good As I Been To You. The track starts off with an acoustic guitar part as Dylan comes in with the vocals of the track. The thing that I’m noticing about Dylan’s voice …

Kenny Chesney sings this song called You Save Me. It is about how his wife or girl friend saves him from getting into more and more trouble. It kinds of relates to the old saying that behind every good man there is a great woman somewhere pushing him along …

Ok, I have been a Lil Wayne fan for about 3 years now, and while I admit, I did not catch up on his music until he made a distinction for himself with his first two albums of the ‘Tha Carter’ trilogy, I can say that Wayne has come …

Light From Above is Black Tide’s first and only album so far, but there is supposed to be a new album coming out within the next year. The lyrics in this album don’t really have any deep meaning, but that isn’t the focus of this band. The focus is …

The Bone Thugs “Ressurection” cd is one which was long awaited by Bone Thugs fan when the group announced that they had broken up in 1999. It was thought that the cd would never come out but this was not the case, Ressurection was released IN 2000 to awaiting …

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 …

The Trans-Siberian Orchestra has been becoming increasingly popular over the years, especially during the holiday season. I recently purchased The Lost Christmas Eve album, which, obviously is a Christmas album. It is hands down the best Christmas CD I have ever heard in my life. It …
