Agaetis Byrjun

CD-Charts > Music > Adult Contemporary
by: Sigur Ros

Release Date August 14, 2000
Hearing Sigur Ros for the first time , as most of us did when hearing Agaetis byrjun, is akin, i imagine , to not just hearing music beamed down from another planet but hearing music beamed across from the far side of a far distant galaxy. The sort of thing Star Trek "Voyager" might have heard on their sojourn through the delta quadrant.( the cover , featuring a ballpoint pen drawing by a friend of the band further ratifies the music's alien ambience) The nearest comparison, and i realise that i am being far from being original here, are The Cocteau Twins , though even their celestial otherworldliness does,nt really compare to the Icelandic quartet.
Agaetis byrjun (Icelandic for An alright start) was originally released in June 1999 and is ... Read More:

I'm Your Man

CD-Charts > Music > Adult Contemporary
by: Leonard Cohen

Release Date July 02, 1990
There really are not words enough to describe the sweep and grandeur of Leonard's 1988 masterpiece. Age cannot wither, nor custom stale its infinite variety. There are many common misperceptions of Mr.Cohen, but none more frustrating to a lifelong fan than that of suicidal, morbid folk-singer. My own personal vision is of the ultimate caberet crooner, the last-dance, last-chance, end-of-the-night performer, dispensing gems of wisdom sometimes with an urbane humour, but always with love and a song in his heart: a mixture of Aznavour, Brel, and Noel Coward, with a little Brecht thrown in for good measure. This album answers perfectly that call, most seductively and gorgeously in LC's reading of Lorca's 'Little Viennese Waltz' (here recast as TAKE THIS ... Read More:

Abba Gold

CD-Charts > Music > Adult Contemporary
by: Abba

Release Date April 05, 2004
AS A DEVOTEE OF ABBA I THINK THIS COLLECTION IS FIRST CLASS. ABBAS LYRICS ARE BRILLIANT, CATCHY, STORY TELLING SONGS WHICH FOR THE MOST PART STAND THE TEST OF TIME. OUTSTANDING TRACKS FOR ME FROM THIS COLLECTION WOULD BE SOS, THE NAME OF THE GAME, THE WINNER TAKES IT ALL ( AGNETHA AT HER MOST HEART WRENCHING) AND KNOWING ME KNOWING YOU. THIS COLLECTION CAN HOLD ITS HEAD UP AGAINST ANY OTHER.

Thriller [25th Anniversary Edition CD + DVD ] (Original Cover)

CD-Charts > Music > Adult Contemporary
by: Michael Jackson

Release Date February 11, 2008
Ok, I love the Thriller album, it's an absolute classic, the first 9 songs on this album are worth the purchase alone if you don't already own them ... BUT ... the remixes? Yeah, I quite like the girl is mine 2008 and P.Y.T 2008, the Billie Jean remix is ok but Kanye should keep his mouth shut with his yeahs and stuff but the Wanna be startin' something mix? WTF is that all about? This is a Michael Jackson album and he only sings one verse on the whole song, is Akon so desperate to make his name that he's got to steal Michael's glory on a Michael Jackson album? I'm not saying the songs rubbish but I am saying it doesn't sound like Michael had a very big part in it at all. It's an Akon song with Michael on backing vocals basically. Let's not even mention Fergie ... Read More:

The Bends

CD-Charts > Music > Adult Contemporary
by: Radiohead

Release Date March 01, 1995
Many Radiohead reviews are pre occupied with comparing the band's albums. Personally I think this is meaningless. It's like trying to compare a bowl of semolina with a garden ornament. This is a different pre occupation to declaring a favourite. My favourite Radiohead album is 'Kid A' however, comparing it to 'The Bends'...Well I just wouldn't know where to start. 'The bends' is Radiohead's radio friendly era, 12 songs, 12 singles if they'd have wanted, and as with all radio friendly music the listener doesn't have to work too hard to enjoy it, the fix is instant.
' The Bends' is also about 5 equally talented musicians working together to make what is fundimentally a guitar,drums and bass masterpiece and it definately isn't about the 'Thom and Jonny show' which followed ... Read More:

Magic

CD-Charts > Music > Adult Contemporary
by: Bruce Springsteen

Release Date October 01, 2007
Even his harshest critic would find Magic a difficult album to find fault with. Bruce is spot on here with nearly every song.

His album contains some of the most direct messages yet about the Bush administration and forms a large part of the theme making it a poignant reminder of the troubled times we live in.

I've just seen Bruce in concert in the last few weeks and can tell you this ROCKS when performed live, so make sure you crank it up loud!

BUY IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Beautiful World

CD-Charts > Music > Adult Contemporary
by: Take That

Release Date November 27, 2006
Just how did they decide which song should be a single. With perhaps the exception of Wooden Boat, all of these songs could have been a single. All the lads take a turn at singing lead and all take credit for the combined work. A truly incredible feat, for the best selling band in the country to take 10 years off, not only come back but come back better. If this is a refection of what we are to expect in the future I can't wait for the next album
