Back in the 90s, I used to love Inner Circle and the affair started when the first burst into the commercial scene with that catchy “Sweat” song. I then began to followed their progress very closely until the end of the 90s. I remember buying the cassette of this album, which I...
One Direction – What Makes You Beautiful (Song Review)
posted by Gallivanter
British boyband, One Direction releases a song that would’ve made all boybands proud as it’s very staple and taken off the Dummies Guide to Boyband Songs. Nevertheless, One Direction manages to make the song catchy with more rock than pop. Young ladies would love...
Che’Nelle – For You (Song Review)
posted by Gallivanter
I just heard a number of love ballads by Che’Nelle, which mostly were boring. However, I am rather impressed with her vocals but not in a Mariah Carey way. Che’Nelle can sing and she delivers a Rihanna-like vocals in a slow reggae-dominated tune. DOWNLOAD Che’Nelle –...
Pat Benatar featuring Queen Latifah – Love is a Battlefield (Mp3 Download)
posted by Gallivanter
It’s one of the better remixes where Pat Benatar’s Love is a Battlefield is given a hip hop treatment with the help of Queen Latifah. I’m not sure which year the song came out as I have this copy for the longest time, probably over 10 years now. Enjoy the track as love is...
Natasha Bedingfield – Strip Me Away (Mp3 Download) Album Review
posted by Gallivanter
I rate her, although her previous album was kind of a dud. She returns with a new album with a few worthy songs to be added to her library of decent tunes. There’s more gumption in this album than the one before, and I reckon many women would relate and probably love the album. I like 3...
Jackie Boyz – Take You Home (Mp3 Download) Review
posted by Gallivanter
Decent track by Jackie Boyz, they’ve been releasing a few nice songs of late and this tune continues the trend. While the verses ain’t memorable, the chorus is something else – sweet stuff. This song’s for teenagers finding love. DOWNLOAD Jackie Boyz – Take You...
Jimmy Palikat – Anak Kampung (Mp3 Download)
posted by Gallivanter
I absolutely love it. It’s songs like these that makes you realize that life can be so much simpler. I first head Jimmy Palikat’s song when I returned to Sabah recently, and after listening to it once, I fell in love with it. I now know how to play this tune with my guitar, the...
Skylar Grey – Invisible (Mp3 Download) Review
posted by Gallivanter
I think Skylar Grey will have a decent career in music. She played a big role in Rihanna’s “Love the Way You Lie” winning a Grammy in the process. She also wrote “Coming Home” with P Diddy and lend her vocals for “I Need a Doctor” with Dre and Eminem....
Linkin Park – Iridescent (Mp3 Download) Review
posted by Gallivanter
Linkin Park has gone shambles. This new song copies the power chords that bands like U2 thrived on previously. Gone are the metal sounds and in come instruments used by lighter alternative bands. I have a love-hate relationship with Linkin Park, as some of their hits I find really crap, just...
Range – I Just Called (Mp3 Download) Review
posted by Gallivanter
Decent track by Range. I haven’t heard much of him before. Some portions reminds me of that Stevie Wonder song – I Just Called to Say I Love You, but not the lyrics and neither the music. The beat’s chilled out too. DOWNLOAD Range – I Just Called Mp3...
1997 : Heavy D – Big Daddy (Mp3 Download)
posted by Gallivanter
I’m not a huge fan of his first hit, “Now That We’ve Found Love”, but I liked this one that I bought the CD single when it came out in 1997. Heavy D intelligently samples Soul II Soul’s 1989 classic, “Back to Life”. This tune was heavily played in...
Frankie J – The Ones I Wanna Love (Mp3 Download) Review
posted by Gallivanter
Frankie J returns with an emotionally-powering track which I bet would touch those who love is the current highlight of their lives. This is true for especially younger kids, in their early teens, finding love, sometimes unrequited love. Not a bad track – still, can’t come close to...
