Future Love (song) from Kristinia DeBarge
What I first thought when I first heard this song, is this young lady watched the film “The Secret”? Like you know, about the “Law of Attraction”? Based on the lyrics of the song, it seems she is thinking in advance about her future love. She is imagining …
Glow After Dark By JLo

The Cranberries - Everybody Else is Doing it so Why Can’t We? (1993)
This very first Cranberries album was somehow, never my favourite. Maybe the raw simplicity, or maybe the short songs, I couldn’t appreciate its beauty. Of course, only until, you actually experience all those things Dolores O’riordan writes and sings about, only then, can you grasp the essence of this …

The Cranberries - Stars (2002)
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 …
Fuck you right back by Frankee
Fuck you right back by Frankee is a reply to Eamon’s song fuck it. It is the other half of the story because every story has at least two sides and some times more. This is the girls side and I like it better than the guys side …

Megadeth - I’ll Be There (Song)

Scars On Broadway - Stoner-Hate (Song)
Stoner-Hate is a track by Scars On Broadway which appears on their self-titled debut record. Preceding Stoner-Hate in the track listing is Exploding/Reloading and I suppose the best way I could describe Stoner-Hate right now is that it’s a far more aggressive version of the previous song, and I …
