Long time no blog. I know I’ve been lazy about keeping this up. but with the coming of Spring, I feel much more energized.Lets start a new blog with a music review:
Here is a review of a great CD I just bought, and I thought why not just write a review about it with a bottle of wine in front of my fire place and write about this album. Great nigiht and definitely good Stuff. The artist is John Legend, and the album is called once again.
Save Room (10 out of 10) Hands down the best song of the album setting up the tones for the rest of the tracks. Soulful, smooth. Starts of Marvin Gayeish, then the song really takes off from there. Though lyric is not that deep, the song itself is amazing. You can hear it from the Wave to Star FM. This is a perfect song to drive thru downtown LA on the 110 by yourself in the night and just feel the vibe of the city lights…
Heaven (5 out of 10). A little too busy this song is. I’d skip it more in the future.
Stereo (3 out of 10). Another skip. Don’t really feel it dawg.
Show me (5 out of 10). Very blue song. Average only.
Each day gets better (10 out of 10). A great, smooth retrospective soulful song. Great stuff to listen to by yourself or have your significant other sit next to you and listen next to the fireplace. Can help to feel a strong sense of sad sentimentality in this song though…
PDA (10 out of 10). Piano solo did the job to start, then lead to the hook immediately. Great stuff. Very Toshinobu Kubotaish. The lyric, is funny tho, especially the parts about sneaking into the parents room and get it on.
Slow dance (8 out of 10). I love this song because it is the only very mo town style song. Reminds me of more innocent and real times once upon a time.
Again ( 7 out of 10). Too Seal like, but I can see it as a song to put you to sleep.
Maxim (10 out of 10). Ahhhha Brazilian style. Finally a song to play in my next beach vacation whenever that is. With a corona light that is. A answer to the classic “Girl from Ipanema). Da Bull would enjoy this song with Mrs. Bull.
Where did my baby go (8 out of 10). Elton John style. But sweet little song.
Maxine’s Interlude (6 out of 10). Sort of continuation or the previous song. A little bit of Al Green’s lesser great works.
Another Again (7 out of 10). Show’s off his vocal range, classic R&B with hip hop style.
Coming Home (7 out of 10). Country flavor, sentimental song about the war in Iraq. We all know where John Legend stands :P
