Artist: Beyonce
Video: “Sweet Dreams”
Album: I Am… Sasha Fierce
Label: Columbia
Director: Adria Petty
Beyonce ditches the black and white cinematography formula for color once again ( as she did for “Halo”). I’m not sure if a dream with Beyonce would be a nightmare or a sweet dream, it depends - If it …

This is a review for GHS Electric Boomers guitar strings. These have been around since 1964 and have been a standard in the industry. The great thing about these is the price and consistency of the strings. I’ve been through every brand of string you could imagine and I’m …

“Katzenjammer” is a song by Kyuss that shows up on their album “Wretch” and their EP “Sons of Kyuss”. I am reviewing the “Sons of Kyuss” version. This version of the song “Katzenjammer” happens to not only be longer, but in my opinion better than the one they released …

Overview - And Justice For All, Metallica’s fourth effort is yet another album filled with thrash metal and what I would consider their angriest and most aggressive, angriest, and most technical album to date. This album is also the first without original bassist, Cliff Burton who was killed in …

86 is a song by Green Day which appears on their album Insomniac. The track opens up with a very energetic drum rhythm before the bass and guitar join in after a pick scrape from Armstrong. As usual, Armstrong plays his characteristic three-chords but Dirnt’s bass line is pretty …

Laffy Taffy by D4L is a awesome dance song. My favorite lines in the song is when he says he is as hard as a jolly rancher and you can suck him long time. To me that is really funny. This song is dirty but clean in it’s own …

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.
I actually …

I am not a hug fan of the Pussycat Dolls, but I really like this song. And I think that what they are singing about in this song happens to a lot of couples at some point in their relationships. But sometimes, it gets a little out of hand …

One of the songs by Hard Rock Band Tesla off their first Album Mechanical Resonance, is a cover of Little Suzi’s on the up by Pop band Phd. The Tesla version is alot better in my opinion then the original song. The original is really boring and is way …

All Nightmare Long is the track which seems to be the one track from Death Magnetic which the majority of fans would deem as their favorite. I believe that the top three tracks which fans really enjoyed from Death Magnetic were The Judas Kiss, That Was Just Your Life, …

While it took me some time to truly appreciate the music of the band the “Beastie Boys”, right now, even though I think their musical style is a bit unusual, I do find that the style itself and the lyrics certainly are fascinating.
One of the reasons why it …

The music was good, but how the mighty Dixie Chicks have fallen. Years back, they became country music outcasts, right in the middle of being huge successes. They made some untoward comments about then President George Bush. It was their end singing country. I believe …

Ah Cannibal Corpse, what a lovely band! This song I am about to review is entitled “Stripped, Raped and Strangled”. This song appears off of their album “The Bleeding” and believe it or not is pretty much a single. It happens to be the third song on the album, …

The first time I heard the song “City on Our Knees” by Toby Mac it was on the ending scenes from the movie “Grace Card”. Not only does the song bring to light some deep emotions that everyone feels when listening to a song that is meaningful to them, …

Overview —“ Wake Up Dead, a music video and single released by Megadeth for their second record, Peace Sells—¦ But Whose Buying, is the first single ever released by the band and a song that should certainly introduce a listener to the aggressive sounds of Megadeth. To be totally …

Released in 1971, after a long period of trying to find their feet, Meddle, can be said to be the first real Pink Floyd album, the first one, which captures completely the Pink Floyd sound, the style on which the band will later build upon, when releasing their worldwide …

In my opinion, Sebastian Bach is one of the best singers on the planet. His days with Skid Row birthed some of the most memorable vocal performances in modern rock. It’s no secret that he was booted from the Row, and it’s no secret that a reunion …

Overview - In The Dark, The Grateful Dead’s twelfth effort, is overall just an album that I consider average. I’ll be honest say that there are a few good songs on here, and the opening track really left me hopeful for the rest of the album but I was …

I just downloaded J.Holiday’s newest CD Round 2, & I got to say that its one of my newest favorite CDs. He has a song for almost everything we go through at one level or another. This CD is one of the most relatable CDs that I …

I first discovered the band Korn in I think about 2000. It was when had seen the video for Freak on a Leash on MTV, and I remember thinking it was the heaviest type of rock music I had ever heard. I thought the video was amazing and mystifying …

I really enjoy the simplicity of this track. The gentle opening and how gradually it starts to develop into what is just a great sounding track.
Again, it’s Gary Barlow behind it, the writer and the driving force behind Take That.
As a performance it does build gradually, it doesn’t explode …

Blue Moon is a song by Bob Dylan which appears on his record Self Portrait. The song is a cover so I’ll just focus on Dylan’s execution of the song. Right from the start you can hear that Dylan’s singing in more of his country croon rather than his …

Contra is the sophomore album by New York indie rock band Vampire Weekend. The opening track “Horchata” contains a rather calm verse that is occasionally punctuated by energetic drumming that reveals similar African roots as on their previous self-titled album. “White Sky” is a bouncy and whimsical track that …

Billy Gilman: One Voice CD is the CD that started it all for this country singer. I have always been very impressed with Gilman. He had the right attitude as a young boy, apparently thanks to parents who kept him grounded and had the right kind of …

Ranch Records actually has three locations, one in Salem, one in Bend, and one in McMinville, but I have never been to the other two, so I will concentrate on the Salem, Oregon Ranch.
Ranch is my favorite record store in the whole world. I recently went to San Francisco …

Crazy Mama is a song by The Rolling Stones which appears on their album Black And Blue. The song starts out in a pretty laid-back fashion with sort of a lazy and casual guitar riff which gives way to a short lead played over it. Jagger comes with the …

Birdy was quite the unconventional type of singer these days. She managed to put out a very outstanding debut album full of covers from different (mostly unknown indie) acts and put her own spin to it. It went on to become an acclaimed important record to establish her career, …

Overview —“ High Speed Dirt, a music video released by Megadeth for their fifth effort, Countdown To Extinction, is a song and music video focused all about skydiving. It’s interesting that Megadeth chose to not release this song as a single yet still make a music video for it. …

Don’t Tread On Me, another one of the more aggressive songs from The Black Album, isn’t exactly a song which I enjoy too much, and ironically, James Hetfield supports this. Don’t Tread On Me isn’t a terrible song, but it does sound slightly forced in my opinion and it …

4 Minutes by Madonna Featuring Justin Timberlake is not that bad. It also has Timbaland featuring in it as well. For my local radio station, is busy blaring this tune most of the time. I must say that there is a perfect combination for these 2, including …

Chris Brown’s fourth album “F.A.M.E.”; the title is an acronym which stands for: “Forgiving All My Enemies” or “Fans Are My Everything”. This was a better attempt at an album since his not-so-favorable previous album “Graffiti”.
This album kicks off with the song “Deuces” which was originally from Chris Brown’s …

Allison Krauss has one of the most amazing voices in country music and this song is just one more proof of that. This is one of my favorite songs by this artist because of the lyrics and the soft but upbeat tune. She proclaims her love for this person …

This song is a song any teenage girl can relate to. The opening line goes “I like the way you sound in the morning… I like the way I can’t keep my focus…” This reminds me of waking up every morning for school, groggy and all. The only thing …

This my favorite Katy Perry’s song. And she wrote it! She is so talented and amazing. I didn’t thought she could write a very good song like this. Now I know she’s really a talented woman.
Thinking Of You is for all the girls who lost their boyfriends, either died …

Start Wearing Purple is a song by Gogol Bordello which appears on their debut record Voi-La Intruder. I should mention immediately that this track was re-recorded by the band on a later record, but I’m reviewing the version that appears on their debut record. Opening up with an accordion …

Although Titanic by Original Soundtrack has been around for a few years now, I still listen to it as of current. The hums and music background are very nice and teary.
