Fearless By Taylor Swift: The Unbiased Album Review
Taylor Swift is a new entry into the music business. Her debut album fearless was released in 2006. During that time Nashville was over powered by male country singers who were in their 40s and even in their 30s. But this 18 year old had managed to emerge as one of the leading ladies among a very chauvinistic business. Now fi you are looking at teenage girly songs then Fearless is the album for you.
Now if you listen to the album and you want songs which have loud guitars and a lot of chorus’s which rouse up then “The way I loved you” and “Fearless” are exactly the ones which you need. Now although the album is said to be country, it isn’t exactly all that. The country part of the album comes from Swift’s little country accent and the rare mentions of things like “one horse town” and even little sounds of the banjo and the fiddle which are found in some songs.

The Black Eyed Peas
American band, the Black Eyed Peas (BEP), is a hip-hop style oriented band based in Los Angeles. The band members include:
• Fergie – vocals, (since 2003)
• Will.i.am – vocals, production, programming, engineering, bass, synthesizers, piano, clavinet, drums, organ, (since 1995)
• Apl.de.ap – vocals, production, programming, clavinet, strings (since 1995)
• Taboo – vocals (1995)
After Fergie joined the group, the band changed their music style to hip-hop and dance. Since then, the band has sold over twenty million copies and around thirteen million singles all over the world. The BEP are among a very few artists who have gained the first and second positions at the same time, on Billboard Hot 100 charts. Their two famous singles ‘I gotta feeling’ and ‘Boom Boom Pow’ are the two tracks that have been on top position of US charts consecutively for twenty six weeks.
The Black Eyed Peas launched their latest album The E.N.D (The Energy Never Dies) in June 2009. This album is made up of fifteen hip hop and leg shaking tracks that are full of heavy beats and energy making you dance to the beat, even if you are not a dancer.
Tracks like “Boom Boom Pow”, “Rock That Body”, “Imma Be”, “Electric City” are worth listening. The album also consists of tracks like “Meet Me Halfway” which are slow R&B types. Then you can also enjoy a hint of 80’s electro pop song such as “Rocking to the beat”. On the whole, it can be said that this album is the best work of the band and their enthusiasm and energy is what makes their music fresh and different from others.

Remembering the Princess: Concert for Diana
Princess Diana. Honorable Princess of Wales. Diana. These are just names that have been attributed to the most loved Princess of Wales—Diana. It was on the 31st of August 1997 that Diana was pronounced dead due to a car crash. Many have grieved over such death which transcends all borders of countries. But up ‘til now, Princess Diana has not yet been forgotten by many people and most especially to her two dashing princes. Prince William and Prince Harry have organized a concert for Diana. This concert will be a sort of remembering Diana during her lifetime. But more than just simply remembering her, the concert will continue what she has started when she was still alive—helping the poor and the needy.
Undeniably, the 10th year death anniversary of Princess Diana is as spectacular and awesome as the person being remembered. To note, about 60,000 people have participated and joined to this wonderful and once in a lifetime event in the United Kingdom. The concert was broadcasted and statistics have it that about 500 million homes represented by each family have watched it not just in the country but over 140 countries. There are many performers that were lined up to do a spectacular show in the concert. Among the performers were Andrew Lloyd Webber; Bryan Ferry; Duran Duran; Elton John; English National Ballet; The Feeling; Fergie; Joss Stone; James Morrison; Lily Allen; Kanye West; P. Diddy; and Nelly furtado among many other great musicians. The concert is huge in terms of the line up of the performing artists. The concert went so spectacular and amazing. The end of the concert marked the greatest ending of all concert. Prince William, at the end of the concert, said a huge thank you to all the people that have attended and taken part in such commemoration of Princess Diana. Proceeds will go to their supported charities.
Aerosmith – July 15
Hello guys! I want to tell you about my experience in one of the worst concerts I ever attended in my whole life, and I was talking about the legendary band, Aerosmith. They were very popular during the 1980’s and 1990’s, and they are very successful for their various albums ever recorded. But things are getting changed right now, as they’re scheduled to be here in Atlanta for their US tour concert, I was totally excited. I have bought a ticket earlier so that I may have no problems to attend a concert with Aerosmith. Here’s one thing that makes them worst, the concert only lasts for an hour. Why? There are some issues that one of the bands from Aerosmith that needs to be done, and it’s urgent. Without one important person from the band, who will have the originality of playing their music, the show will not go on. They have played a few big hits in their entire career and providing some little entertainment with us, but things have changed after an hour, the concert stopped requested by the Aerosmith members itself. The fans were really disappointed about it, and they want to get their money back due to some issues, especially me. This concert has been one of the worst experiences in my entire life and the money I spent was not really worth at all.
Aerosmith: The Living Legend
Aerosmith is probably the best rock and roll band that ever surfaces in the music industry. Well, “best” is an understatement. The band is simply the greatest rock and rollers that America has ever loved. Aerosmith is very flexible in terms of their music. It can literally reach out to people from different ages and different walks of life. Its music transcends into pop to rhythm and blues but mostly focuses on heavy metal and rock and roll. Just the same people love them and America does not want to miss a thing. Since 1970, Aerosmith has been rock and rolling the music industry. Even if the members were tagged as the “Bad Boys from Boston” Steve Tyler charmed the listeners by its rocking voice and appeal. From the time that they had signed Columbia Records in the year of 1972, their popularity soared and never came into a halt. Up until now, Aerosmith has sold 150 million albums in all over the world; 66.5 of which were sold in America alone.
Who wouldn’t love Aerosmith? They are the greatest because even if the bands are kind of old as compared to the young rock artist nowadays, they were able to obtain a score of 21 to the top 40 Hits of the Billboard hot 100, won 4 Grammy Awards and was tagged in to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. The music of the band transcends time. From “Dream On” to “I Don’t Want to Miss A Thing” and “Jaded”, the band was able to reach even the younger generations. Hence, they are considered to be a living legend in the field of rock and roll. No wonder, they positioned themselves to #57 of the very famous magazine named Rolling Stone.
Aerosmith really rocks and keep the listeners rockin’ and rollin’ as well.

James Taylor Concert Review
When I got my tickets to go see James Taylor in concert I really did not know what to expect. I guess when you see a guy who has many hits from so many years ago, you kind of expect the stadium to fill up with old people. I can’t say that I myself am the youngest, but there is just something fun when the younger crowd goes crazy when people like James Taylor hit the stage. To my surprise, I walked in and it is clear that James Taylor’s music has touched the lives of younger generations. The place was crowded, but there was a wide range in age between the people there. It was great!
James Taylor has a lot of songs, which makes for a good concert but probably hard on his voice. He still pushed through with 26 songs all together. He split it up into two different sets where he had 12 songs in the first, and 14 in the second. It was a lengthy concert when you are listening to a single artist, but when each song is so good, the time flies.
One of the best parts of the night was the fact that James Taylor cracked jokes at himself throughout the concert. He referred to himself as being the opening act for the venue we were in. The funny part was that the venue he held his concert in was about a hundred years old. It lightened the mood, but when the music started you could see the crowd as passionate as ever about the words he was singing.
Overall, the concert was great! I would highly recommend it to anyone who loves some of the classics he sings.
