American Me [PA] - CL Smooth

American Idiot

Advantages: Likeable, Good music
Disadvantages: Not as good as previous albums.

with thirteen tracks including two ten minute tracks with 5 little sections each, is well worth the money paid for it. At first listen, all the songs seem listen-to-able and decent in their own right. After a while some grow a bit tiresome but others still are great to listen to. The album has a bit of a mix of pop rock, rock, pop and pop punk. This is the track listing for the album: 1. American Idiot 2. Jesus of Suburbia i. Jesus of Suburbia ii. City of the Damned iii. I Don't Care iv. Dearly Beloved v. Tales of Another Broken Home 3. Holiday 4. Boulevard of Broken Dreams 5. Are We The Waiting 6. St. Jimmy 7. Give Me Novacaine 8. She's A Rebel 9. Extraordinary Girl 10. Letterbomb 11. Wake Me Up When September Ends 12. Homecoming i. The Death of St. Jimmy ii. East 12th St. iii. Nobody Likes You iv. Rock and Roll Girlfriend v ...

Review of American Idiot (Parental Advisory) [PA] - Green Day

American Smooth

Advantages: Pleasant easy-watching. Diverse and funny gallery of characters.
Disadvantages: Quick-steps over the dance scenes. A little predictable.

Early on in the recent series of Strictly Come Dancing, I became an avid viewer. It was the first time, I had watched the series and I was fascinated by how quickly and how well the celebrity novice ballroom dancers learnt and performed such complicated steps and lifts. So when I saw the DVD "Shall we dance?" listed on the Tesco rental list, I had to watch it. The film is an American remake of a Japanese film of the same name written and produced by Masayuki Suo in 1997. It is apparently reasonably faithful to the original however I am not in a position to comment having never seen the original. Audrey Wells adapted the screenplay for an American audience in 2004. The premise of the film is quite simple. The central character of the film John Flynn (Richard Gere) is a successful lawyer happily married to Beverley (Susan Sarandon ...

Review of Shall We Dance? (DVD)

Hi Fi-ying American are not Losing me!

Advantages: Powerful guitars and drum sound, great vocals
Disadvantages: Not quite reaching top level all the way through

the first album, looked at the bands website every so often and had no idea that the second was coming out in the UK. I was just pure luck I spotted it in a local music emporium, and at the bargain price of £8.99 I was sure it must have been out for ages. But no not only was it a new release but that was the RRP set by the record label Island, who obviously had no faith in the album selling at a normal price! Something they really should not have worried because ?The Art of Losing? is every bit as good as the first album! It has more potential hits than ?American Hi-Fi? and is musically more accomplished. The Band ? Stacy Jones ? Guitar, vocals James Arentzen ? Guitar, vocals Drew Parsons ? Bass, vocals Brian Nolan ? Drums, vocals ?You call me a loser, Say I?m just a user, But I?ll just keep on moving ...
