L'Histiore de Melody Nelson
Review of Histoire De Melody Nelson [Remastered] [Digipak] - Serge Gainsbourg by
thegrinder2k
Advantages: Glorious music, sounds like nothing else in the world.
Disadvantages: Too much narrating; not long enough.
I imagine that most of you will not have heard any of Serge Gainsbourg’s music. Those that have, will have probably heard the relatively famous “Je t’aime” once or twice, and as a result have dismissed Gainsbourg as rubbish. A few weeks ago, I was in that very position, and so it was with much scepticism that I got this album, purely on the advice of a friend.
Firstly, this album sounds nothing like “Je t’aime”, ... ...and recorded this album in England, with the help of a group of session musicians. It is built around guitar, drum and bass, but also has sweeping orchestrations. I found out, after buying this album, that it’s a great favourite of Jonny Greenwood from Radiohead. After listening to this it’s easy to see where the inspiration for Kid A’s “How to Disappear” orchestra part came from.

Maroon 5 - Songs About Jane
Review of Songs About Jane - Maroon 5 by
Art007
Advantages: Great singles on here
Disadvantages: Many weak tracks
I own this album, I bought it new in 2007. There are 12 tracks and various free screensavers and photogalleries. This album I don't play very often and when I do I play certain tracks.
Adam Levine - Vocals, guitar. Ryan Dusick - Drums, vocals. Jesse Carmichaeal - Keyboards, vocals. James Valentine - Guitar. Mick Madden- Bass.
To be honest "This Love", "She Will Be Loved" and " Sunday Morning" are excellent tracks. Problem is the rest of the album ...

More a Blown Bulb
Review of Catfights And Spotlights - Sugababes by
DolphinWatcher30
Advantages: Girls!
Disadvantages: One song is much like the next
I bought this album pretty much as soon as it was released on the strength of the first single released from it. The song Here Come the Girls is a cracking party hit and is the first song on the album. This I usually played at full blast when I'm getting ready for a night out. However, after this tune it all goes down hill a bit. To be honest I can't think of any other stand-out songs on this album which is a shame because I really like the group ...
