My Dad’s 25th Year Death Anniversary

I cannot believe how time has flown by. It’s just like yesterday when I receive the news that my old man died, after I returned home from school, age 8 going on 9. My mom was only a housewife when dad left us, me and my younger brother who was 6 going on 7. I must admit it was a...

1982 : Four Tops – Back to School (Mp3) Oct28

1982 : Four Tops – Back to School (Mp3)

I wasn’t a fan of the original Grease movie as I found Travolta a tad too annoying for my liking. I’m probably one of the very few on planet earth who prefer Grease 2 instead. I remember the intro and the movie, with a number of really good songs, including the film opener by Four...

1984 : Alphaville – Forever Young (Mp3) Oct27

1984 : Alphaville – Forever Young (Mp3)

One of the best songs ever written and arguably the best Germany has given the world. This tune pushed Alphaville to achieve stardom status from an album that also gave us “Big in Japan”. I shall share 2 versions for you, the original and the remix for your listening pleasure....

1963 : Chubby Checker – Let’s Limbo Some More (Mp3) Oct26

1963 : Chubby Checker – Let’s Limbo Some More (Mp3)

I like Chubby Checker’s sequel to “Limbo Rock”, though not as catchy, it’s much more cooler and laidback. This song didn’t fare as well as Limbo Rock for obvious reasons, but it’s one of my favorite from Chubby Checker. DOWNLOAD 1963 : Chubby Checker...

1965 : Four Tops – I Can’t Help Myself (Mp3) Oct25

1965 : Four Tops – I Can’t Help Myself (Mp3)

This was arguably Four Tops best song, and until this day, has some influence in soundtracks. It’s one hell of a catchy number this sugar pie honey bunch tune. Enjoy. DOWNLOAD 1965 : Four Tops – I Can’t Help Myself...

1990 : Enigma – Sadeness (Part I) Mp3 Oct24

1990 : Enigma – Sadeness (Part I) Mp3

I remember being a little intimidated when I heard this song and never liked to listen to it alone as my imagination got the better of me. What a brilliant and memorable smash hit by Enigma, though personally, I prefer “Return to Innocence”. The beat and the melody is so haunting...

1989 : Janet Jackson – Rhythm Nation (Mp3) Oct23

1989 : Janet Jackson – Rhythm Nation (Mp3)

Hot damn! Janet Jackson’s Rhythm Nation 1814 album was nothing short of legendary, only to be overshadowed by her brother. She held her own, danced as well and unleashed her best album ever. The song became the second of the historic seven top five singles released off the Janet...

1993 : PM Dawn – Looking Through Patient Eyes (Mp3) Oct22

1993 : PM Dawn – Looking Through Patient Eyes (Mp3)

I think this was PM Dawn’s better song in comparison to their first single, “Set Adrift on Memory Bliss of You”, for me personally. The song features backing vocals by Cathy Dennis and samples “Father Figure” by George Michael. The line “Joni help me, I...

Nickelback – When We Stand Together (Song Review)

The verse sounds like Nickelback’s poor attempt of copying their own melody from previous songs despite the slight redeeming factor in the chorus. The lyrics are kinda lame for this muttly-looking-poodle Chad Kroeger. It’s just too tepid for my liking, they can simply do better....

Nicole Scherzinger – Try With Me (Song Review)

Nicole Scherzinger starts the tune slow before it builds up into a full-blown dance track. I read that she’s re-releasing her album, “Killer Love” in Europe to include this track. It sounds like there’s not much Scherzinger stamped in this tune as what you’ve come...

Casting Crowns – Wedding Day (Song Review)

This is easily Casting Crowns’ best song off their new album, “Come to the Well”. Although it’s not as memorable as “Who Am I” but the lyrics could just spur brides-to-be to have this song as part of their wedding. When someone dries your tears When someone...

1986 : MC Miker G & DJ Sven – Holiday Rap (Mp3) Oct20

1986 : MC Miker G & DJ Sven – Holiday Rap (Mp3)

Musically, the song used a sample from Madonna’s 1983 hit “Holiday”, with different lyrics and a melodious music. In the lyrics, both singers tell their summer vacations in various towns, such as London and New York. The song also featured the chorus of Cliff Richard’s...
