If you’re a parent, are you indirectly trying to make your child perfect? Do you PUSH them to get A’s, to excel in sports? Do you think your child is happy, or do you think because you’re a parent, you know what’s best for them? Do you set unrealistic targets for them, and anything less [...]

Somehow, I never really rate Goo Goo Dolls that highly. Sure, they had a couple of decent tunes but they didn’t capture my imagination at all, as they sound too safe at times and sound like a pub band of sorts. Their new album unfortunately continues in a similar vein, no daring improvisation or fresh [...]

Remember Kim Wilde and her hit back in the 80s called “Kids in America”? Well, she’s back with a new album, called “Come Out and Play” and there are a couple of songs that are radio-friendly, and this is certainly one of them. However, in the spirit of being in the present music industry, she [...]

The intro samples The Bugles’ “Video Killed the Radio Star”. Will.I.Am starts off the track with his trademark laidback style that gives the song a nice zing to it. The only weakness is the repeated use of “Check It Out” in the chorus like they ran out of ideas. If only more thought was put [...]

Skip Washing the Car on Your Own I used to wash my car at home, and end up spending longer time, and probably 5 times more than a professional car wash. It’s because we care for our car and make the effort to clean as much as possible, and sometimes, leave scratches by trying to [...]

Hell yeah, now this is Pitbull at his best! The latin-influenced beat is off the hook. I’m 100% sure it will do really well in the club. Heck, even I’m involuntarily shaking my body as I write this review. We speak no Americano is part of the message, an unexpected theme. That’s why I like [...]

This is Melee’s best song off their latest album. The verses nicely builds up to the haunting chorus. You can say that this is a ballad for obvious reasons. Haha! At some parts of the song it reminds me a little bit of U2 meets Coldplay. While I don’t think it’s gonna push Melee into [...]

The buildup makes you think it’s a slow R&B track by Shontelle, but a minute later you’ll have your fist pumping in the air embracing the lyrics laid out in a relationship gone sour. I strongly believe this track will go down well with ladies who are going through some form of emotional struggle, on [...]

I find it amusing and hilarious at the same time whenever I come across a comment particularly from one race that constantly uses this line whenever we are faced with global tragedy. I wonder what goes on in their minds when they say this. Remark: ”Did you read the stories about babies being dumped?” Reply: “Ya, [...]
