This is my it. There is no song that comes near this. I fell in love with it the first time I heard it when I blasted through their Crossroads album in 1994. It was brilliant, as with all Bon Jovi songs. It lifts you up, it touches your soul, it strips away all the bullshit that most songs...
Nickelback – Never Gonna be Alone (Dark Horse)
posted by Gallivanter
I enjoyed listening to Nickelback’s latest album. I was never overwhelmed by them previously, though I have songs like “Far Away”, “Photograph” in my list of collections. Now, thanks to this album, I have added another 3 tracks, “Gotta be Somebody”,...
Ludacris – Get Back (Tom Cruise Dance on Tropical Thunder)
posted by Gallivanter
[ad] I remember downloading this track back in 2004, but then it didn’t deserve the space on my hard disk, along with my 4000 other tracks. I deleted it. Now, I see the track in a totally different light, thanks to Tom Cruise in Tropic Thunder. The movie was OKAY, I thought it...
Hinder – Thing for You (Take it to the Limit)
posted by Gallivanter
[ad] This is a final track that I will share with you, off Hinder’s new album. “Use Me”, “Without You“, “Heaven Sent” and “Last Kiss Goodbye” were the previous entries. I’m sure from that bouquet of songs, you will have a favorite...
Hinder – Last Kiss Goodbye (Take it to the Limit)
posted by Gallivanter
[ad] I just had to share another track from this album. This is Mel’s favorite, though she’s not into noisy music as she calls it, and to me, this is rock. She hasn’t heard of noise yet, somebody, give her a dose of Disturbed or some shite noisy band! Austin Winkler, has a...
Sugar Ray – Fly (Floored 1997)
posted by Gallivanter
[ad] The year was 1997. This song really went down well with most of us humans back then. 1997, to me, was the height of alternative music – Smash Mouth, Tonic, Verve Pipe – all definitive in its own ways! And because of this tune, I purchased Sugar Ray’s album. The other...
Pink – Boring (Funhouse – Bonus Track)
posted by Gallivanter
[ad] For the life of me, I can’t imagine what was Pink thinking when she dropped this track of her latest effort, a mediocre album by her standards. Pink is always synonymous with angst, and this album completely lacks that. She touches more heartly matters, reeling effects from her...
Vertical Horizon – You’re a God (Everything You Want 2000)
posted by Gallivanter
[ad] Was this song catchy or was this song catchy? I wasn’t enamored in the beginning, but slowly it grew on me. Seeing Tiffany Amber Thiessen in the music video somehow had an affect of sorts. I can’t believe that this tune is 8 years old already! My favorite Vertical Horizon...
Bon Jovi – It’s Hard Letting You Go (These Days 1995)
posted by Gallivanter
[ad] This song is so refined and graceful, and each time I hear it, it evoke my first reaction when I heard it back in 1995. This is taken off Bon Jovi’s 1995 effort, the most darkest of the Bon Jovi albums. Experiencing the Bon Jovi concert at Shah Alam stadium was magic, and this...
Bon Jovi – Misunderstood (Bounce 2002)
posted by Gallivanter
When I first heard this song off Bon Jovi’s 2002 effort, Bounce, I was not really into it, as the heavier songs took the limelight away for a while. But, when I revisited the tune, I liked it, in fact, I loved it. It wasn’t love at first sight hear. I’m sure all of us, at...
Chris Cornell – Scream
posted by Gallivanter
[ad] Even Chris Cornell has caught the Timbaland fever! I was surprisingly pleased with the combination of the two of them. Though, I think it would’ve been a super song for a NEW artist like David Cook instead of someone who is as seasoned as Chris Cornell. From Soundgarden to...
Michael Franti & Spearhead – Say Hey (I Love You) – (All Rebel Rockers)
posted by Gallivanter
[ad] This song is fucking catchy. Easily the catchiest upbeat tune of 2008. Each time this song shows up on my playlist (either in the car or at home), I can’t stop dancing to it. Even my girlfriend was not spared, I grabbed her and pretended that our living room was some reggae shack on...
