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”,...
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...
Hinder – Without You (Take it to the Limit)
posted by Gallivanter
[ad] This is classic! A classic rock ballad. I love Hinder, and this is a song that perfectly flaunts the lead’s singer’s prowess. Though parts of the chorus sometime sounds like some other tune. Nevertheless it’s a magnificent tune. It may not come close to “Lips...
Staind – All I Want (The Illusion of Progress)
posted by Gallivanter
My favorite song from Staind is their 2003 hit, “So Far Away”. I didn’t really like their 2005 effort, and now their back with their latest album, “The Illusion of Progress”. It’s not a bad effort at all. 2 songs stood out for me, “This is it”...
Sarah Connor – Under My Skin (Sexy as Hell)
posted by Gallivanter
Firstly, I didn’t know that a name like Sarah Connor is something of a norm in Germany. She’s from Deutschland, probably real name Helga Zisswienerizgood, grew up loving the movie Terminator that she adopted that name. I have this song with me for the last couple of weeks now, and...
Shwayze – Corona & Lime
posted by Gallivanter
This is an easy tune to listen to, especially lazying on a Sunday having a Corona. Not that I’m a fan of Corona & Lime, I’ve always fancied Guinness Stout & Kilkenny, and the other beers are just waste of time. Shwayze comes up with a catchy tune, and I dig it. Shwayze...
Brandy – Right Here (Departed) (Human)
posted by Gallivanter
Personally, I dislike Brandy, I just find her overrated, as with Monica too. Useless. However, I have to admit, that I kinda like her latest single, “Right Here (Departed)”. It depicts about a woman’s talk about mutual support with her loved ones. This is Brandy’s first...
LL Cool J feat Richie Sambora – Baby (Rock Remix)
posted by Gallivanter
I liked LL Cool J’s original collaboration of his new single, Baby, with The Dream, though the chorus is repeated to infinity. But it’s typical LL Cool J. I was surfing through the net and stumbled upon the rock version of the same song, with Richie Sambora of Bon Jovi, lending his...
David Archuleta – Crush
posted by Gallivanter
It’s not too bad, though it’s nothing great, the melody should be good enough to pacify you David Archuleta fans. This is a type of song that’s really suited for Archuleta, bubble-gum pop, with pleasant congruities. He has always played second fiddle to the brilliant David...
New Kids on the Block – 2 in the Morning (The Block – Album Review)
posted by Gallivanter
“Summertime”, NKOTB’s first single off their new album, released in May 2008, is a track that grows on you. Believe it or not there is a whopping 17 songs from the new album, “The Block” which is due to be released soon. I managed to listen to the whole album, and...
Akon feat Michael Jackson – Hold My Hand (Mp3 Download) Review
posted by Gallivanter
Ladies and gentleman, we have a winning combination right here! After Akon’s excellent rendition of MJ’s Wanna Be Startin Somethin earlier in the year, both of them went back to the studio to record this track. It’s classic Michael Jackson, and it’s catchy. You can...
Black Stone Cherry – Things My Father Said (Folklore and Superstition)
posted by Gallivanter
What an album to listen to! It was a rocking good effort by Black Stone Cherry. I’m surprised that this band went under my radar since they were formed in 2001. It’s a throwback of rock n roll from the its heydays, with some fresher sound. This album was was produced by Bob...
