Candy Shop song by Madonna

Slash-By The Sword (song)
One of my new favorite songs off of the new Slash album is By the Sword. The track features Wolfmother singer and guitarist Andrew Stockdale. I think Slash did a good job on having him sing for this song. It really fits his style as a rock vocalist …
The Grateful Dead - Viola Lee Blues (Song)
Viola Lee Blues is a track which appears on The Grateful Dead’s self-titled debut record. I remember that the first time I heard this track the first thing that struck me was the track length of the song since it’s over ten minutes in length. I’ll say right now, …
Ablum : Tracey Bonham - Masts Of Manhatta (2010)
I missed this album when it was first released last year, but recently i had a chance to check it out and i’m pretty glad i did. I hadn’t really heard much from Tracey Bonham since she hit the charts with the song Mother Mother, so i really didn’t …
Don’t Believe the Truth, 2005 Album by Oasis
Oasis is a band that occupies a very special place in my heart. Their 1995 album, What’s the Story, Morning Glory was basically the first CD we ever had in our household, because back 1995 most people still listened to LPs, and so did we. That album is very …
Frank Kelly’s Christmas Countdown
This is The Twelve Days of Christmas with a dark British spin. It starts off with harmless gifts being sent from a female friend to this British comedic genius. First she sends the usual gift of a partridge in a pear tree. Second was two turtle doves who had …
Gorillaz, 2001 Album by Gorillaz
I have read that this album has sold over ten million records worldwide. There must have been many reasons for that, but I would go so far as to claim that the music proper was not the biggest reason for this album’s commercial success.
I was about twelve when I …
Taylor Guitars
Well the first saying that comes to mind when I think of Taylor guitars is “you get what you pay for”. Now, in some situations I have experienced this saying to be untrue. Such as, overpriced restaraunts with poor quality of food, salon grade hair products that …

Dancing Queen (song) by Abba
Dancing Queen is one of Abba’s most famous songs, and in my view that is absolutely fair. The band produced a good number of extremely fine tracks in their career, but Dancing Queen must surely be counted as one of the very best of them all. Right from the …

Soulja Boy
I hear so much hype over Soulja boy. So many little kids run around singing, that “hop up out the bed song”, including my little cousins. At first I liked Soulja Boy, ever since he came out with his first song, “Crank that Soulja Boy”. I liked the beat …
So Wrong It’s Right by All Time Low, album
All Time Low’s second full-length album has become one of my favorite by the artist. So Wrong It’s Right is, in my opinion, All Time Low’s most powerful compilation of pop-punk-revival songs which mixes sometimes run of the mill pop punk themes with energetic and …

The Black Parade Is Dead by My Chemical Romance
I don’t know what kind of genre to label the band My Chemical Romance for. Either it is punk or more to rock and roll; not so sure which, but I do sure love this particular album featuring them of course.
The storyline is pretty clear through the songs and …
ReJoyce by Jessica Simpson Christmas CD
ReJoyce by Jessica Simpson is her first (and only so far) Christmas CD that came out in 2004. I love this CD and my only complaint is that I wish there were more than 11 songs on the CD. She has classics on there as well as new songs. …
Doin’ My Thing by Luke Bryan (CD)
I just purchased the Luke Bryan CD, “Doin’ My Thing”. This CD came out in October. I have fallen in love with this man’s voice. Let me tell you! There are some great tracks on this CD.
The song that had me desiring this CD in the first …
Islands in the stream
Islands in the stream is a duet song performed by Kenny Rogers and Dolly Pardon. Their voices in this song just seem to belong together because they do such a great job together. This song talks about nature working together hand in hand in a perfect harmony. It …
Come Rejoice! A Judy Collins Christmas

Dont Fear The Reaper by Blue Oyster Cult
A big hit from the band Blue Oyster Cult is their song Don’t Fear The Reaper off their Album Agents Of Fortune. I really like this song because I’ve always loved the story behind it which is about eternal love but many fans interpret the song as a murder …

U.F.O. Story is a song by the Flaming Lips which appears on their third studio record, Telepathic Surgery. The track opens up with a recording of someone talking about their experience seeing a U.F.O. which goes fittingly with the title of the track, but this does get dragged out …

Step Up 3d Soundtrack Chromeo - Fancy Footwork (Song)
When I watched the movie Step Up 3d there was a scene in which the actors where all breakdancing and the main actress and actor were showing their moves together, and the song had a really beat to it and it really stuck on my mind. I searched for …
Deftones Self-Titled CD
The Deftones are getting a very bad rap for their latest album, the self-titled Deftones. It appears that fans are not privy to the new Deftones style. They are much more electronic and less hardcore heavy metal, and there is no trace of Hip Hop in their style at …
Weezer - Thought I Knew (Song)
Thought I Knew is a song by Weezer which appears on their self-titled record, specifically The Red Album. What’s interesting about Thought I Knew is that it actually isn’t sung by Cuomo which is quite rare to hear in a Weezer song, although I believe there a few songs …
Pink Floyd - Animals (1977)
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 …
Esteban Classical Guitar Beginner’s Kit
When I expressed a desire to teach myself to play the guitar, my mother purchased an Esteban Classical Acoustic off the internet. The Esteban Classical guitar series includes a carrying case, an instructional VHS tape, an Esteban CD, a tuner, and a few spare replacement strings. The …
ReLoad by Metallica

Album : Cirith Ungol - One Foot In Hell

Lately, i heard for the first …

Iron Maiden - Wildest Dreams (Song)

The Grateful Dead - Wake Of The Flood
Overview - Wake Of The Flood, the sixth effort by The Grateful Dead, departs from the more folk and country rock that was found on Workingman’s Dead and on American Beauty but still does not venture back into the psychedelic sound they once had. The music still does have …
Rush CD
I’ve been a huge fan of the rock band Rush since their Moving Pictures album back in 1981. So far I’ve collected all their albums and will usually listen to them all at least once a year. Their musical progression has always been a drawing point for …
Hell Chose Me - Carnifex
“Hell Chose Me” is the 3rd outing from death metal/hardcore band Carnifex. Let me start off this review by saying this completely sounds like a new, completely unrelated band. The progession from their second album “The Diseased and The Poisoned” is so noticeable with this album, that the two …
Eminem - Must Be The Ganja (Song)
Must Be The Ganja is a song written by Eminem which appears on his album Relapse. To begin with an overview of the album and my general thoughts on it, I felt that it was certainly a shift in the overall sound and songwriting for Eminem compared to his …
