Sometime last year, I was browsing the bargain bin at Half.com when I came upon Mandy Moore’s debut album, So Real. Even though I wasn’t a fan of Mandy’s music or anything, I thought I’d buy the album since it was only 75 cents. A…
I remember hearing Maroon 5‘s first single, Harder To Breathe in the summer of 2002. After only one listen, I had the catchy chorus stuck in my head, and I was sure the song was going to be a big hit. All summer long, the song got amazing…
Although she placed 3rd on Season Two of American Idol, Kimberley Locke has been one of the most popular contestants, due to her powerful voice and wonderful performances.
Season Two of American Idol is probably my favourite season to date (okay, I’ll admit it- I’ve only seen two episodes of Season Three, but I think it sucked!). There were the hilarious and disillusioned rejects at the beginning of the season, the wonderfully talented, and unfairly booted Frenchie,…

In the summer of 2001, Sum 41 released their first single, Fat Lip. The song quickly became one of my favorite songs that summer, and then after hearing their next two singles (In Too Deep and Motivation), I decided that I wanted to buy their…
When Jessica Simpson hit the music scene in 1999, the radio was filled with songs by boy bands and pop princesses. It was fairly easy for new artists to get lost in the sea of Britney’s and Christina’s, but the thing that seemed to set…
