They are one of my favorite rock bands, apart from Hinder and Breaking Benjamin. “Hate My Life” is one of my favorite songs of all time. I understand that Theory of a Deadman’s new album is due out this year, and I can hardly wait to get my hands on it. This is a safe song, a...
Nelly Furtado featuring Elton John – Crocodile Rock (Mp3 Download) Review
posted by Gallivanter
This is one of my favorite songs, but not the original tune from Elton John, that Beach Boys’ rendition which blew me away! Now Nelly Furtado takes a stab at it with the help of Elton John, and I’m not personally liking it as Furtado doesn’t do justice to the song itself,...
Alexandra Burke – Hallelujah (Mp3 Download) Review
posted by Gallivanter
Another awesome rendition of Leonard Cohen’s classic, “Hallelujah”, one of my favorite songs ever written. I wasn’t aware about this track until I heard Bon Jovi covering it during their live concerts. It’s a brilliantly composed track, and Burke’s vocal...

posted by Gallivanter
Coolness! The roles have changed! The original song had Eminem doing all the rapping with Rihanna singing the chorus. Part 2 sees Rihanna taking center stage with the verses and chorus, while Eminem delivers another rapping lesson right at the bridge. It’s a bloody awesome continuation...

Bon Jovi – In These Arms (Keep the Faith)
posted by Gallivanter
[ad] As always, I typically say these words when I blog about a Bon Jovi song – “It’s one of my favorite Bon Jovi songs”, from easily over 120 of them. This track taken off 1992′s Keep the Faith did fairly well in the American and British Charts. It speaks of...
