Writing this blog throws up some weird incidents, and this video is one of those. I haven’t heard or seen the video for this song for ages, but when I stumbled across it the other day (don’t ask me what I was searching for on YouTube… please), I knew I had to review it.
It’s a […]
After reviewing the ridiculously bad Jessica Simpson version of this song the other day, I needed to redress the balance, and highlight the original for some comparisons to be made.
Now, I know it’s old, and the video isn’t much cop but the song itself is genius, and this just shows how little it needed rewriting, […]
Why? Just why? This is one of the worst cases of taking a classic tune from the sixties, covering it, and absolutely ruining it in an attempt to bring it up to date.
If you like Jessica Simpson, then first of all, what is wrong with you? And secondly, why are you giving this untalented waste […]
Ice Cube is back, and he hasn’t lost any of his bite. This song, Gangsta Rap Made Me Do It, is a great piece of classic hip hop, with rhymes straight out of the mid 1990s, but that’s not bad thing.
I’ve known of, and liked Ice Cube’s stuff since way back in the day when […]
Nickelback… even the mere mention of the name of this band inspires boredom, irritation and annoyance in my head. This is of course due to that You Remind Me song, which is still played on radio stations far too much.
The song was bad enough, but then when I saw the video for the first time, […]
This is a niche video which seemed to cross musical barriers and find itself being championed by all and sundry, no matter what their first musical love was.
That’s because it came from nowhere, and was probably the best video ever made for a song of it’s genre, that being British techno music. The song […]
I don’t know how well, if at all, the Sugababes are known outside of the UK. I don’t think they’ve made it big in the US yet, but with catchy pop classics like this, it surely can’t be long.
They are probably the biggest girl group in the UK at the moment, along with Girls Aloud, […]
Wow, Janet Jackson has been away a while, and then comes back with this piece of shit. It wouldn’t be a bad song if it wasn’t for the vocoding/auto-tune effect all over it… what’s happened? Has Janet lost the ability to sing in tune by herself?
She’s done what I expected her to, which is look […]
This is Missed The Boat, the new release from American indie rockers Modest Mouse.
It’s only after doing a quick bit of research on the band for this review, that I realised how long Modest Mouse have been around. I’ll be honest and admit I’d never heard of them before the brilliant Float On came out […]
It’s time for a classic, at least a modern one, in the shape of Sum 41’s brilliant Fat Lip. This song, and the band themselves seemingly came out of nowhere, or Canada as it’s more commonly known… I keed, I keed!
I loved this video as soon as I saw it, which must have been about […]
