One hit wonder and what a hit it was! It remains one of my favorite alternative rock songs ever written and a must play track when I play my guitar to jam with friends. Sung from the point of view of a man who is on the verge of breaking up with his girlfriend, on [...]
You can never find a band like Queen, the most eclectic rock band ever – most of their songs are unique, so unique. While this track doesn’t command that uniqueness to the maximum extent like how Freddie Mercury likes to bring it, it is surely one of their best tracks. Oh how I would’ve loved [...]
The song was written by Mellencamp and George Green, a childhood friend. The song was first conceived, Mellencamp claims, in his shower and the first lines created were those of the chorus written by Mellencamp, he then said the lines to Green and they finished the song very quickly. This is one of Mellencamp’s best track! [...]
This is one of my favorite British pop tunes from the 80s. The song’s lyrics mostly describe the working class family lifestyle, and the band acts them out by portraying such a family in the music video. There’s nothing deep about the track, just a fun tune all around. DOWNLOAD Madness – Our House Mp3
Oh how I loved this song and constantly played it with my guitar. It was released as a live track for Bryan Adam’s MTV Unplugged album and good thing he did too! The arrangement of the guitar and piano is superb. DOWNLOAD Bryan Adams – Back to You Mp3 Â
I remember this tune kept on playing in my head while I was sitting for a major school examination to the point it became really annoying. I hate it when I can’t get a tune out of my head although I think this is an excellent R&B track. DOWNLOAD Riff – My Heart is Failing Me [...]
This is arguably Awie’s best song from his solo efforts when he’s not leading his band Wings, a local Malaysian rock outfit. The song’s written in Malay language and it’s about regrets and asking for forgiveness from a loved one. DOWNLOAD Awie – Tragedi Oktober Mp3
If you haven’t heard of this song, you might think it’s a Christmas carol by the name, but when the intro goes, “Jeremiah was a bullfrog†you’ll realize it’s a song that doesn’t make sense. But it’s bloody catchy! Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea, joy to you and me! Axton wanted [...]
One of the most underrated rock bands in the late 80s, overshadowed by world-class acts like Bon Jovi and Def Leppard. I bought their greatest hits and enjoyed their genre of blues rock and this embodies how Cinderella wanted to be defined. I took a walk down a road it’s the road I was meant [...]
He’s the lead singer of the rock band called Europe, and went to release a solo album in 1995 which I bought simply because of this song alone. Unfortunately, the other tracks aren’t any good but this one stood out for me to remain of my favorite light rock tunes. DOWNLOAD Joey Tempest – A Place [...]
