Woo-hoo, I'm making progress! I'm finally in August...
1.) Everybody Loves – Constantine
Vocalist sounds a lot like Mickey Thomas (Fooled Around and Fell In Love – Elvin Bishop, Starship, etc.). This song grabbed me from the moment I heard it. In spite of his affiliation with American Idol, this is a nice tune.
2.) Nothing That You Are – Mandy Moore
Mandy has a nice pop voice, and she’s channeling the “Fleetwood Mac” sound on this recording without braying and bleating like Stevie Nicks. Nice soft pop sound.
3.) Stranger – Hilary Duff
Ok, I’m not a teenybopper but this song is another one that grabbed my attention right away. I’ll buy Ms. Duff a Duff beer for this one.
4.) Me Love – Sean Kingston
Shades of Led Zeppelin’s “D’yer Maker”. Yes he can lift riffs from famous songs and then make them his own. This is a whole lot more listenable than “Beautiful Girl”.
5.) Hate That I Love You – Rihanna Feat. Ne-Yo
Passable, I cant’ say that it thrills me, but I’ve heard a lot worse out there.
6.) I Got It From My Mama – Will.I.am
Yes, it’s “My Humps” recycled, but the guitar loop that was lifted (can’t place it) is infectious and has filled the dance floor each time that I’ve played it.
7.) Rock On – Montana Da Mac Feat. Unk
Ok, rappers should be banned from using any phrase that has “Rock” in it. Pure garbage.
8.) Can’t Help But Wait – Trey Songz
Are we sure that Ne-Yo doesn’t record under different names? Nice smooth song, though.
9.) Uh-Ohhh! – Ja Rule Feat. Lil Wayne
This one just gets on my nerves.
10.) Ready, Set, Don’t Go – Billy Ray Cyrus
Billy, just sit back and let your daughter support you. Yawn.
11.) I Got My Game On – Trace Adkins
More of a slow rocker than a country song. He’s had catchier songs, but at this point Trace could belch and it would be #1 hit.
12.) So Small – Carrie Underwood
This one isn’t doing well around here, and I can see why. File this with Billy Ray.
13.) Alcohaulin’ Ass – Hellyeah
Have to give this the vote for one of the most interesting song titles I’ve ever seen. They start the song kind of an acoustic blues style then kick it into a heavy rock style. Interesting, I do like this one.
14.) 10 Ton Brick – Hurt
Heavy handed and I’m not overly impressed.
15.) Your Guardian Angel – Red Jumpsuit Apparatus
I wouldn’t have released this as a single, it’s just lame.
16.) Easy – (Aspuration Radio Remix) – Paula Deanda
It's a dance song, nothing special.
17.) Evolution (Dave Aude Radio Remix) – Korn
Nice remix, never thought of Korn as a “Dance Band”.
18.) Miracle Of The Moment – Steven Curtis Chapman
It’s the King of “I Will Be There”. This song is definitely a bit more muscular, yet still a very nice song at the same time.
19.) Can’t Go On – Group 1 Crew
Very interesting, kind of a Christian dance/hip-hop sound. Much easier to listen to than all the Thug music.
20.) Be Still – Storyside:B
Very non-descript. Sorry, I have nothting to say about this one.
