Song of the Day: Enter Sandman

Today’s song is Enter Sandman by Metallica. Shifting gears with a key change that exists solely to kick ass. If you don’t bob your head in appreciation to the masterful elevation of this song you have no ear… Read More

Song of the Day: Smooth Operator

Today’s song is Smooth Operator by Sade. Couldn’t mention Sade’s work without this one. Talk about smooth. Those vocals. The instant mood that is set. It’s so pure. It also has a saxophone. Come on, it’s brilliant. His… Read More

Song of the Day: Killing Me Softly with His Song

Today’s song is Killing Me Softly with His Song by Fugees. The intro sets the tone beautifully and it melds into a more energetic R&B/Hip-Hop track. The fact that it maintains the soul from the Roberta Flack version… Read More

Song of the Day: Waiting for a Star to Fall

Today’s song is Waiting for a Star to Fall by Boy Meets Girl. I enjoy the use of saxophone in pop music. Hearing it is a small gift to my ears. Also, the mix of piano, drums and… Read More

Song of the Day: Hold On

Today’s song is Hold On by Wilson Phillips. I’m a sucker for the vibe this one has. It’s supportive (without being too cheesy). Sort of like a 90’s version of Annie’s Tomorrow. Yeah, it’s sappy. Sue me. I… Read More

Song of the Day: By Your Side

Today’s song is By Your Side by Sade. Soothing. Calming. Whatever you want to call it. Her work is incredible (and I really love this particular track). I am here to dry your eyes. And in no time,… Read More

Song of the Day: I Melt With You

Today’s song is I Melt With You by Bowling For Soup. Yeah, the 1982 original by Modern English is a classic. Nothing against that New-Wave track. I just like this one. Maybe it’s because of the actual use… Read More

Song of the Day: Dance Floor Anthem

Today’s song is Dance Floor Anthem (I Don’t Wanna Be In Love) by Good Charlotte. “The secret lies with Charrlotte”. Sorry. The joke was right there. Some pop-punk. Still in an angst-riddled state. For some sick reason I’m… Read More

Song of the Day: Untitled

Today’s song is Untitled by Simple Plan. Full of angst. Beautiful, sullen and a bit cringe-worthy if taken too seriously. If this doesn’t give you flashbacks to teenage life, you aren’t human. The early to mid-2000’s was rather… Read More

Song of the Day: Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us Now

Today’s song is Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us Now by Starship. I like the sentiment behind this one. The heavy synth elements and the excellent guitar really help as well. It’s a solid pop-rock duet. A bit cheesy, but… Read More
