* Broken Hearted Girl *

Advantages: Voice , Lyrics
Disadvantages: None!

I was never a fan of Beyonce , not even when she was in Destiny's Child , although I will admit that I used to absolutely love some of their songs such as Survivor , Emotion and Lose My Breath. It was only since 'If I Were A Boy' came out that I really took notice of Beyonce. Soon after came Halo and I soon became a fan of Beyonce , even going to the effort of buying her album , "I Am...Sasha Fierce!". I absolutely love the album , and I loved the ...
...before it was released as a single. Broken Hearted is the 17th solo single from Beyonce and is taken off her latest album "I Am Sasha Fierce!". The single was released on August 28th 2009 and is currently at number 33 in the British Single Charts. Broken Hearted is obviously about a girl who is Broken Hearted so it has quite an emotional feel to it. The Europop styled ballad starts off with some strong piano chords which proceed to pounce throughout ...

Review of Broken-Hearted Girl - Beyonce

The debut album form last years X Factor winer..Alexandra Burke

Advantages: Great songs, great guest apperances, great album design
Disadvantages: None at all!

...line. The album, titled Overcome was released on the 19th November 2009 and sailed to the top of the charts; it is simply packaged with a picture of Alexandra on the front, her name and the album title. It has taken just under a year to produce and publish so was it worth the wait... Here is my opinion on the tracks: 1)) Bad Boys featuring Flo Rida (3:26) I see this track as the first single release from Alexandra as I often forget that she released ...
...high notes! 8)) Overcome (3:54) The title track of the album and what a fantastic track it is. It really shows of another great vocal performance from Alexandra and is quite an emotional track that I think Alexandra gets across really well. It starts off quite quiet and then builds throughout the song. One of my favourites. 9)) Gotta go (4:01) A tamed down R and B track for me, and definitely an album filer in my opinion. It is not one of my ...

Review of Overcome - Alexandra Burke

fantastic debut album

Advantages: broken heels, bad boys
Disadvantages: bury me. not bad at all just my least favourite song on here

this is a fantastic start of what i'm sure will be a life-long career in music for alexandra burke. her first singe "hallelujah" which was released just after she won the x factor features on here as a bonus track and her second, in my opinion phenominal single "bad boys" kicks this album off to a t! it's the sort of music that makes you want to get up and dance, or even to have a boogie to whilst doing the housework! My ratings of the songs Bad ...
...- a very powerful and moving ballad bury me: 3/5 broken heels: 5/5 dumb: 5/5 overcome: 4/5 gotta go: 5/5 you broke my heart: 4/5 nothing but the girl: 4/5 they don't know: 4/5 hallelujah: 5/5 overall this is not at all what i expected from alexandra! a mostly up-beat album but in places she does her ballads to show you what a fantastic talent she really is! ...

It find that Alternative Hip Hop artist comign with a record that has him attempting to find some kind of way of introducing a D.C. sound in Hip Hop, with its regional Go-Go musical style being introduced through this, but has this as one of many main places to work from as he is known to work in the Hipster Rap field, and so relies ...

Review of Attention Deficit - Wale

Non X Factor winners that achieve 2 number one singles!!

Advantages: Great mixture of songs, Great lyrics, Includes their 2 number one singles
Disadvantages: Quite girly and lovey dovey!

***ABOUT JLS*** JLS appeared on the X Factor last year and although they didn’t win they got a record contract with Epic records and have since released 2 singles which have both reached number one. Their first album was released a few weeks ago and is called ‘JLS’. The band features 4 male members which include Marvin, JB, Aston and Oritse. JLS are only the second non-winning X Factor contestants to achieve a number one single. ***THE ALBUM*** ...
...Again – This song was JLS first single and reached number 1 in the charts. This song has a strong beat to the music and I find the song quite catchy. The song talks about losing someone (I presume a girlfriend) and that you both should get back together. This song has a catchy chorus and I often find myself singing along to it when it comes on the radio. Everybody In Love – This is JLS most recent single and again it reached number 1 in the charts. ...
