I’ve never been a big fan of most pop-music Divas. I’m sure you know what I mean when I say that- I don’t own any Celine Dion CDs, I’m not a huge Whitney Houston fan, I don’t like Beyonce’s voice at all, and though I…
I’ve been listening to Britney Spears since I was twelve years old. I’m not sure if I’d call myself a die-hard fan of Spears, but she’s very much become a part of my life, since I’ve basically grown up listening to her. I don’t know…

Ah, pop music. You gotta love it. It’s upbeat, it’s fun, it’s catchy, it’s usually sung by incredibly attractive people- what more could you ask for? Well, sure- tends to lack in well-written or in-depth lyrics, and sometimes flirts with being too over-the-top, overproduced or…
I don’t know what started it exactly, but recently I’ve been having a pre-teen nostalgia kick. This, embarrassingly enough, means I’ve been listening non-stop to my favorite artists of the time- *NSYNC. I’m pretty sure my friends on Last.FM are going to delete me once…
