Fall Out Boy - ‘Sugar, We’re Going Down’ Video Review | What The… Antlers Huh?

This video was the first glimpse I ever had of Fall Out Boy, and I was hooked from then on in. The song is brilliant, and the video is eye catching, if not a bit weird, to say the least.
Sugar, We’re Going Down was the first single, taken from debut album From Under The Cork […]

Puff Daddy (P Diddy) Feat. Jimmy Page - ‘Come With Me’ Video Review From Godzilla

The film Godzilla was a bit poo to be honest, even though it had a seemingly brilliant cast, including Matthew Broderick and Jean Reno, but the soundtrack was awesome.
This song, Come With Me by P. Diddy, who at the time called himself Puff Daddy, is one of the best, especially as it’s based on the […]

Muse - ‘New Born’ Video Review | The Most Rockingest Video Ever Made

Muse are getting bigger by the day. I mean, they’ve always been top notch, but each album gets bigger, more spectacular, and more epic in scale and ambition.
Their fanbase is also growing exponentially, with the band making inroads in to the Anerican charts, and Knights Of Cydonia appearing on Guitar Hero III surely gaining them […]

Cliff Richard - ‘Mistletoe and Wine’ Video Review | Have A Mullet Christmas

You’ve had two of my favourite Christmas songs, so now it’s time for two of my least favourite. We start with Cliff Richard’s Mistletoe and Wine.
I actually liked this song when it was first released. My excuses are: It was 1988, I was 11 years old, and I had bad taste. What more can I […]

Mariah Carey - ‘All I Want For Christmas Is You’ Video Review | Santa Claus Gets Laid!

Continuing on the Christmas trend, with what is, despite my attempts to hate it, one of my favourite Christmas songs. Even the video is fairly decent too!
This was back when Mariah Carey was good, before she attempted to become some hip hop ho, and just concentrated on the singing, and quality divaness she has now […]

The Pogues Feat. Kirsty MacColl - ‘Fairytale Of New York’ Christmas Video Review

It’s that time of year again, yes Christmas is just around the corner, with less a week to go before the big day is upon us. So I felt it was a fitting time to review some of my favourite Christmas songs of all time, with this one being the absolute best there is.
I actually […]

Enrique Iglesias - ‘Somebody’s Me’ Video Review | Not ANOTHER Love Song

I can’t stand this guy. There, I’ve said it, in the interest of full disclosure, because that inscrutable fact affects the review of this, his latest single, and video.
There’s something inherently creepy about Enrique Iglesias, a quality he shares with his more talented, and more famous dad. He’s smug, and makes me want to vomit […]

The Magic Numbers - ‘Forever Lost’ Video Review | Animation Knocks Pounds Off You

This was the début single by British Indie group The Magic Numbers. It’s an odd song, but once you hear it, you won’t be able to get it out of your head for days.
When I first heard it, and them, I assumed they were American, as they kind of have this odd inflection to their […]

Roni Size & Reprazent - ‘Brown Paper Bag’ Video Review | Best Drum’n'Bass Video Ever

Watching this video takes me back to the old skool, when I was more in to dance music and Drum’n’Bass than the Indie and Rock that I’m in to now.
I would assume a lot of people won’t have ever seen this video, heard the song, or even know of Roni Size, but after seeing this, […]

Shakira - ‘Whenever, Wherever’ Video Review | Confusing Breasts With Mountains… What?

Or I could have titled this ‘When Shakira Was Good’. That’s harsh because she is still a good performer, but her style has changed a hell of a lot since this song and video first brought her to the attention of everyone outside of her native Columbia.
I kind of preferred her in this form than […]
