'The Best of Me' by Bryan Adams
I purchased my Bryan Adams The Best of Me album about 8 months ago. This album contains great songs.
The Tracks
1. The Best Of Me
'When you want it, when you need it, you'll always get the best of me.'
This opening track is nice with its great melody, good rendition of acoustic guitar and Bryan's husky voice.
2. Can't Stop This Thing We Started
'I aint superman and I can't fly, but if you wanna stop me baby , don't even try.'
This track comes in rock style and Adams delivers it with unique style as he goes speechy and sexy with this song.
3 . I'm Ready
'I'm ready to love you, I'm ready to hold you.'
This is a very romantic mellow song. Bryan goes in slow tempo with this track with brilliant lyrics.
4. Summer of '69
'And if I had the choice, yeah, I'd always ...
Advantages: Easily readable, light, non-intellectual, aimed at the more mature woman Disadvantages: A tad old fashioned, but perhaps I am too?
Yes, I?ll admit it! I?ve been reading rather a lot of magazines lately. Mainly by virtue of the fact that I went to Scotland for a week in August and travelled by train. It?s a five hour journey and whilst I can quite easily get my head stuck into a good book for such a duration, I do find that the density of the text combined with the motion of the train, makes me feel sick after a while. So, magazines, with their colours and layouts make a good alternative. That?s my excuse anyway.
One of the magazines that I picked up was ?best?. Whilst doing a little research for this review, I was surprised to discover that this publication has been around since 1987. Apparently, it is aimed at female readers between the ages of 25-55, but has a median reader age of 40. Heh, that?s me! Certainly, as I flicked through it I was pleasantly ...

Advantages: Not too hard for the brain Disadvantages: Much of a muchness, same style as Bella, Woman etc.
I was wandering into the local sainsbury's petrol station and studying the mags, knowing I didn't want to add too much onto my bill, I decided to buy Best Magazine. I bought issue 23/05 with date 14th June 2005 on the cover. At 70 pence and with the chance to win a trip to Paris, I just had to buy it.
You can buy this on every newsagent's stand and every forecourt. It's as common as The Daily Mirror however I don't think you can take a subscription out on this, so you have to make that trip out each Friday.
I used to buy Best regularly when it was just an unbelievably low 40 pence and it was fatter. Now its become skinny and I've spread out! I was surprised to find its only 67 pages long, it used to be a whopping 98 pages. So I don't mind if they condense the magazine but how can the publishers justify putting the price up ...
