Gravity Kills – Guilty

Tuesday, June 13th, 2006

Most of the time I like my music mellow and relaxing, but sometimes I just feel like listening to something heavy. Today was a day like that, and lucky me, one of my coworkers has a whole collection of Gravity Kills on their iTunes playlist. I first heard this song on Dain Bramage a few [...]

Daniel Powter – Bad Day

Thursday, May 25th, 2006

The title of this song is actually somewhat ironic considering its feel. This song is a romantic pick-me-up. I can’t help but smile when I hear it, because all I can think about is how great it feels to have someone to make my bad days better. The video sends the same message, in my [...]

Korn – Coming Undone

Monday, April 17th, 2006

I’ve never been a big Korn fan, but the video for this song rocks. I can’t think of a better backdrop than the sky falling down in chunks and the singers unravelling. It seems like the band hasn’t been around in awhile, but I’m glad to see them coming back into the mainstream with a [...]

KT Tunstall – Black Horse and the Cherry Tree

Wednesday, April 5th, 2006

I’m not generally one for anything even resembling country music, but a song occassionally comes along that is the exception to the rule. I must admit that I have no idea what this song is about, nor do I really care. It’s got a wonderful beat and some interesting lyrics. Frankly, it’s just fun to [...]

Nickelback – Savin’ Me

Thursday, March 9th, 2006

It seems like I like every song put out by Nickelback more than the last one. I first heard this song the other day while watching MTV with my wife. Since then, I’ve listened to it several dozen times, often back to back. I just can’t believe that they’ve put so many good songs on [...]

Natasha Bedingfield – Unwritten

Wednesday, February 22nd, 2006

For the same reason that I like “Breathe” by Anna Nalick, I can’t help but love “Unwritten” by Natasha Bedingfield. I had honestly never heard of her before this song, and it took awhile to grow on me. Once I listened to it, though, I really had to appreciate the poetry. The song can almost [...]

Dain Bramage

Thursday, February 9th, 2006

I’ve been hard up for good music at work lately. Burning CDs takes too much time and effort, buying them takes too much money, and I’d rather not store MP3s on a work computer. Besides, while I’m working, I’d rather not concentrate on what song I should play next. Thus, I decided to turn to [...]

Nickelback – Animals

Wednesday, January 11th, 2006

My wife won’t admit it, but she loves this song just as much as I do. Sure, it’s risque in the extreme, but it’s fun to be naughty sometimes. Besides, I’ve been a fan of Nickelback for years now. Leader of Men, Never Again, and Someday were all instant favorites. I fully intend on buying [...]

Anna Nalick – Breathe

Thursday, September 29th, 2005

I’ve listened to this song before, but it wasn’t until my wife started singing along that I really started to appreciate the poetry of Anna Nalick’s lyrics. It’s rare that you find a musician whose song actually uses an atypical meter (I believe the song begins in anapestic tetrameter). This is not to mention its [...]
