This album is the complete opposite of the previous „Wish you Were Here”. When I first listened to it, I was shocked by the huge leap the band made from that album. If WYWH was about emotions, intimacy, and empathy, „Animals” is a strikingly bleak and politic statement, in …

Marty Sampson has a very husky voice in singing this song All I Need Is You. I really like the song because of the wonderful message and the composition of it was also amazing.
He also leads the guitar as he sings although you can obviously hear from Marty’s voice …

The song Busy Man was a hit for country singer Billy Ray Cyrus, and it’s a song I have loved since its release. In some ways, it’s not unlike Harry Chapin’s Cats in the Cradle, only it has a happier ending.

I came across this song on MySpace and was quite drawn to the singer. She has a tone that kind of reminded me of Amy Winehouse, but without all the gravel in her voice. The song’s lyrics kind of confused me at first. But then …
