I love De La Soul but I’ve never paid much attention to their first album, “3 Feet High and Rising” until recently. “Eye Know” is such a great, up-beat track I’m kicking myself for not hearing it sooner. It’s super summery and light and fun and a lil bit romantic. It just makes me wanna… Read on »
Is this *NSYNC’s swan song? I’m guessing it is. Oh man, the things I would do for an *NSYNC reunion… ~ A.H.
Scientists have confirmed through very extensive research that this is the most annoying song known to mankind. Ok, yeah, I made that up but in any case, it’s not that far off from the truth. This song burrows into my head every time I hear it (or even just imagine it as I’m doing right… Read on »
We all think it’s pretty safe to say that Johnny Cash’s version of NIN’s “Hurt” is one of the best cover songs of all time. This video, filmed only 7 months prior to the demise of The Man In Black, was voted the greatest video of all time according to NME. We don’t want to… Read on »
I was gonna say Bonnie Raitt’s “I Can’t Make You Love Me”, due to the recent covers by Bon Iver and Adele, but I decided to go down a different route and opt for Dolly Parton’s classic “Jolene”. I feel like this song is completely untouchable — the girl is in absolute shambles over some… Read on »
This song by Backstreet Boys is one that I think I will always know. I think when you learn the words to a song so early in your life (approximately age 9) they become ingrained in your brain forever or something. Kinda like nursery rhymes, maybe? In any case, I’m very relieved that I remember… Read on »
Playing this live would give anyone like 100 rock cred points. I thought about choosing a rap song but I think I would just get all tongue-twisted and screw up B-Rabbit style. “Celebrity Skin’s” lyrics are easy to remember and you don’t have to have a voice like an angel to sing it. Plus it… Read on »
Lately, I’ve been Gaga-ing it it up with the release of Born This Way earlier in the year. I’m a frequent shower singer, and I’m preeeetty sure the last song I caught myself singing was “Marry The Night”. I always try and see if I can nail the high-pitched “NIIIIGHT!” she wails near the end… Read on »
Pump up the jam, pump it up, while your feet are stompin’ and the jam is pumpin’ Oh hey sorry I was just singing Jock Jams to myself! On the real though, Jock Jams may be the classic pump-up workout songs but I prefer remixes while I’m workin on my fitness! This one of Metric… Read on »
Okay, awkwaaaarrrdddd, I don’t drive! No, I’m not 15. I’m well past driving age and am just really lazy and/or terrified of the road. So Iggy Pop’s “The Passenger” seems like a good fit for my driving song since, well, whenever I’m in a car…I’m a passenger! Plus a good driving song should always be… Read on »
