I never thought I’d say this, but I actually really miss the Twilight franchise. I’m not talking about the movies, because we all know they were awful (though I will admit to missing Robert Pattinson, but that’s another thing entirely), but I miss the soundtracks. Each…
2013 was an interesting year in music for me. There were tons of big releases, and quite a few from some of my favourite artists. Oddly enough, though, hardly any of the albums released really impressed me. I spent a good portion of the year…
It might be almost as much as a surprise to you as it is to me to see that I’ve rated a Katy Perry album with four stars. I have never held back on my dislike of her or her music, and honestly, I never would’ve…
I’m a sucker for Christmas music- especially the classics. While my fiance would rather listen to South Park’s Christmas album while we’re decorating our tree, I’m a stickler for tradition, and we end up listening to Bing Crosby instead. That being said, I do enjoy…
I was quite pleased when Justin Timberlake released his third studio album, The 20/20 Experience, earlier this year. It was easy for me to label it as Timberlake’s best album to date; the disc was filled with catchy pop songs, unforgettable hooks, superb production (from Timbaland and Jerome “J-Roc” Harmon) and,…

I grew up being a Disney fan. My mother and grandparents indulged me with most of the VHS tapes of the Disney cartoons from my childhood – The Little Mermaid, Aladdin, The Lion King, and of course, Beauty and the Beast. Beauty and the Beast was always…
I must have a thing for Israeli singer-songwriters. First, I fell in love with Israeli musician, Oren Lavie, and recently I’ve found a love in Lior‘s music. Lior Attar (whom goes simply by Lior) is actually Australian (though he was born and lived in Israel…
I have a decade-long love affair with Jimmy Fallon. I first fell in love with him back during his run on Saturday Night Live; sure, he ended up collapsing into fits of laughter during every sketch he was in, but it always made me laugh, anyway….
For the most part, I don’t really listen to R&B music. I listened to it a lot when I was younger, but I guess I just outgrew the genre; as I got older, I started becoming less impressed with much of what was released. Most…
