1982 : Madness – Our House (Mp3 Download) Jan27

1982 : Madness – Our House (Mp3 Download)

This is one of my favorite British pop tunes from the 80s. The song’s lyrics mostly describe the working class family lifestyle, and the band acts them out by portraying such a family in the music video. There’s nothing deep about the track, just a fun tune all...

1997 : Bryan Adams – Back to You (Mp3 Download) Jan26

1997 : Bryan Adams – Back to You (Mp3 Download)

Oh how I loved this song and constantly played it with my guitar. It was released as a live track for Bryan Adam’s MTV Unplugged album and good thing he did too! The arrangement of the guitar and piano is superb. DOWNLOAD Bryan Adams – Back to You...

1991 : Riff – My Heart is Failing Me (Mp3 Download) Jan25

1991 : Riff – My Heart is Failing Me (Mp3 Download)

I remember this tune kept on playing in my head while I was sitting for a major school examination to the point it became really annoying. I hate it when I can’t get a tune out of my head although I think this is an excellent R&B track. DOWNLOAD Riff – My Heart is Failing Me...

1996 : Awie – Tragedi Oktober (Mp3 Download) Jan24

1996 : Awie – Tragedi Oktober (Mp3 Download)

This is arguably Awie’s best song from his solo efforts when he’s not leading his band Wings, a local Malaysian rock outfit. The song’s written in Malay language and it’s about regrets and asking for forgiveness from a loved one. DOWNLOAD Awie – Tragedi Oktober...

1971 : Three Dog Night – Joy to the World (Mp3 Download) Jan23

1971 : Three Dog Night – Joy to the World (Mp3 Download)

If you haven’t heard of this song, you might think it’s a Christmas carol by the name, but when the intro goes, “Jeremiah was a bullfrog” you’ll realize it’s a song that doesn’t make sense. But it’s bloody catchy! Joy to the fishes in the deep...

1988 : Cinderella – Coming Home (Mp3 Download) Jan22

1988 : Cinderella – Coming Home (Mp3 Download)

One of the most underrated rock bands in the late 80s, overshadowed by world-class acts like Bon Jovi and Def Leppard. I bought their greatest hits and enjoyed their genre of blues rock and this embodies how Cinderella wanted to be defined. I took a walk down a road it’s the road I was...

1995 : Joey Tempest – A Place to Call Home (Mp3 Download) Jan21

1995 : Joey Tempest – A Place to Call Home (Mp3 Download)

He’s the lead singer of the rock band called Europe, and went to release a solo album in 1995 which I bought simply because of this song alone. Unfortunately, the other tracks aren’t any good but this one stood out for me to remain of my favorite light rock tunes. DOWNLOAD Joey...

Dappy featuring Brian May – Rockstar (Song Review)

Alternative, hip hop and a little bit of pop for good measure as Dappy breaks down this catchy track with the help of Brian May. It’s a good introductory for this fella and I’m curious to see how he develops. Enjoy the track. DOWNLOAD Dappy ft Brian May – Rockstar Mp3...

Eric Turner featuring Lupe Fiasco & Tinie Tempah – Angels & Stars (Song Review)

I don’t like rappers from the UK (cue Tinie Tempah) and the rest of the world because it’s not rapping and cannot be taken seriously vs rappers from America. Eric Turner delivers a good alternative slow-fused R&B song with Lupe Fiasco dropping the beat like there’s no...

Smith and Burrows – Only You (Song Review)

A remake of the Flying Pickets’ classic, “Only You”. I like the haunting combination of the lead singer’s voice with the melody. One of the better cover versions, it cannot be compared to the original simply because of the difference of delivery. Both are nice in their...

Smith and Burrows – Funny Looking Angels (Song Review)

This is their best song off their new album with the same title. Most of the songs made up in the album are cover tracks. If you’re into Indie bands then this track’s for you. Easy listening feelgood music. DOWNLOAD Smith and Burrows – Funny Looking Angels Mp3...

JLS – Proud (Song Review)

A very teeny-bopper idealistic song which will reach out to young girls who are trying to find their way in the world, with young boys that they can relate to. I say girls because the lyrics are very girly despite it’s sung by a boyband. However, I’m sure there are exceptions to...
