It’s the end of April, yes, another month has gone by. So I thought I’d take us back in time a little while for today’s review, with Bring Me To Life by Evanescence.
This is like a genre all to itself, with a strong operatic voice singing over the top of some classic rock guitars. Call […]
I’ve been quite scathing about both Dance and Hip-Hop on Killed By The Video Star up to now, and with reason too, as both genres tend to be quite shallow, and not very inventive.
However, I’ve hit a problem, as I kind of like this tune, Wearing My Rolex by Wiley, as even though it combines […]
Adele and Duffy both seemed to come from nowhere and burst on to the music scene in the wake of the success enjoyed by Amy Winehouse on both sides of the Atlantic.
In terms of first singles, Duffy was more successful, with Mercy making it to number one in the British singles chart. I personally preferred […]
John Mayer is another artist who hasn’t really reached any level of fame over here in the UK, so this is my first real glimpse of him, and I’m not too impressed.
Maybe this song, Say (What You Need to Say), isn’t a fair representation of his talent, as he wrote it especially for the movie […]
Kanye West seems to have turned in to collaboration man lately, only being able to release songs if someone else is there with him holding his hand.
But now, he’s back on his own, and with a single that shows the man has more talent in his right pinky than a swathe of the current breed […]
We don’t normally get any Ashlee Simpson songs released over here in the UK, maybe because her record company realises they are too crap to release anywhere but America.
However, they have seen fit to release this little pop gem called Outta My Head (Ay Ya Ya), and I’m glad they did.
I know what you’re thinking […]
I’ve never liked Nelly, in fact, I’d go as far as to say I used to hate him. Not any longer though, not because he’s got any better, or because I’ve mellowed out in my old age, it’s purely because he’s got rid of the stupid plaster he used to wear on his cheek.
That does […]
I’ve already given The Feeling some airplay here on Killed By The Video Star, but as none of you seemed to notice, or care, I thought I’d try again. I warn you, if I get no comments this time, I’ll keep plugging their videos until someone takes notice!
This is the second song from their second […]
The last few weeks have been quite tricky for me here on Killed By The Video Star, mainly because the videos that I was reviewing all tended to be uninspiring pieces of crap.
There were a few gems of course, and I travelled back in time a little bit to ensure not every review was a […]
If I see one more R’n’B/Rap video which just follows the same plot, and ticks all the necessary boxes without offering anything different from all the other similar songs, I think I’m going to go mad.
Oh hang on, it’s too late as I’ve just watched Sexy Can I from Ray J and can already feel […]
