Ke$ha: Die young

I just finished listening to Die young on my stereo at home and it was pretty exciting. I own the album on which it's from on Compact Disc entitled Warrior, so that always excites me as Compact Discs are so much more exciting than MP3s. For example, they cost way more and there is a reason. Their sound quality is superior to that of MP3 sound quality.

Madonna: I'll Remember

I'll remember was released as a single from a Movie and was not included on a Studio album, like many of Madonna's singles that are from films. It was released in 1994 and it was one of the most exciting times in my life. I had just begun my massive Madonna collection and this year, 2013, I just attained the goal of having all twelve of her Studio albums on Compact Disc. That literally took 20 years for me to complete.

Tiësto: Maximal Crazy (original mix)

The original mix of Maximal Crazy is a pretty disgusting track, said with a grain of salt. Of course what I mean by that is it is disgustingly amazing. I mean I just can't get over it as I write this entry. It's astounding; Tiesto is one of the best DJs I have ever heard.

Pussycat Dolls: Hush Hush; Hush Hush

Hush Hush; Hush Hush was released as the sixth and final single from Doll Domination. It's actually a remix and is only available on Doll Domination 2.0 and the Mini Collection of Doll Domination. Doll Domination 2.0 is the re-release of Doll Domination and the Mini Collection of Doll Domination is an EP. The version on the standard edition of Doll Domination is the ballad version entitled simply Hush Hush.

Tiësto: Chasing summers (original mix)

The second track listed on Club Life Vol2 Miami, is a pretty good track. Entitled Chasing summers, it is the original mix of this track, produced by Tiesto. Tiesto is a great DJ. I have purchased three of his CDs since the end of last year, that's how amazing he is. I rarely do that for anyone.

Tiësto & Wolfgang Gartner featuring Luciana: We own the night (original mix)

There is a track on Club Life Vol2 Miami entitled We own the night and it makes reference to Jupiter and Mars. That excites me beyond belief considering that astrologically-speaking, Jupiter is my ruling planet. It makes me feel a little euphoric actually considering the link between the two planets in Roman myth. For example, as far as I know Mars is second only to Jupiter as the high he-god of the Roman pantheon.

AR Rahman and the Pussycat Dolls featuring Nicole Scherzinger: Jai Ho (You are my Destiny)

Jai Ho! (You are my destiny) was released from the Mini Collection of Doll Domination and the re-release of Doll Domination, appropriately entitled Doll Domination 2.0. Those are of course the easiest ways to gain access to that song. I wanted to but the re-release of Doll Domination but I settled for the Mini Collection, which is good. But Doll Domination 2.0 is a little bit more substantial.

Linkin Park: Crawling

I am pretty sure that I recognize the second single from Hybrid Theory, Linkin Park's debut Studio album, entitled Crawling. However it was released all the way back at the beginning of 2001 so it's hard to say but it sounds familiar.

Linkin Park: Powerless

The twelfth and final track available on Living Things is very well-written. Linkin Park is a great band and this track really shows that. It's entitled Powerless and the DJ named Enferno does a great mix of it on Linkin Park's second remix album entitled Recharged.

Linkin Park: I'll Be Gone

The album version of I'll Be Gone is pretty interesting. I am accustomed to hearing the remix of I'll Be Gone by Schoolboy, available on Recharged. But the album version from Living Things is refreshing. Living Things was released as the fifth and most recent Studio album by Linkin Park. However they have since released a remix album to accompany Living Things entitled Recharged.

Linkin Park: Castle of Glass

The album version of Castle of Glass is pretty interesting. The lyrics from Castle of Glass are very interesting. They are also much clearer on the album version as compared to the remix by M. Shinoda available on Recharged. Chester Bennington has a great voice and that is very apparent on this track, if you ask me.

Linkin Park: One Step Closer

I am kind of scared to listen to One Step Closer. I feel like it might be too good and turns out only 2 minutes into it, that it's amazing. I am pretty sure that One Step Closer is Linkin Park's debut single, however I don't know for sure. But I know it was released as the lead single from their debut Studio album.

Linkin Park: Waiting for the End

Waiting for the End is so refreshing to listen to after I just cracked open Hybrid Theory. It's not that Linkin Park's debut Studio album isn't good, rather a little too good to listen to right now. For example, Linkin Park has mellowed quite a bit over the years and Waiting for the End most definitely shows that.

Linkin Park: Lost in the Echo [Killsonik]

The Killsonik remix of Lost in the Echo is very exciting. I think Chester Bennington has one of the greatest voices I have ever heard. I typically hate male singers but every once in a while I find an outrageous one, as in outrageously amazing. Chester Bennington is most definitely worth checking out.

Gwen Stefani: Now that you got it

Now that you got it, appearing as track five on Gwen Stefani's second solo Studio album is amazing.  It was produced by Swizz Beatz so it's no wonder.  I love Swizz Beatz and his collaborations with rapper T.I. especially.  However this song was released as The Sweet Escape's fourth official single and I adore it.  Now that you got it is a keeper and now I know why, Swizz Beatz.

Gwen Stefani: Wind it up

Wind it Up is a great song and it was released as the lead single to Gwen Stefani's follow-up to her debut Studio album as a solo artist.  That album actually did really well although the follow-up or Sophomore effort did not do nearly as well.  It kind of suffered from the Sophomore curse even though the lead single did pretty good.  Having said that, the rest of the singles released did somewhat poorly and so overall Gwen Stefani decided not to pursue her solo career any further.  But then decided however to get back together with No Doubt.

Gwen Stefani: What you waiting for?

What you Waiting for? is a great track.  It was Gwen Stefani’s first single as a Solo artist and it blew me away at the time.  Quite frankly it still does but I don’t listen to it as much as I did then because I was all over it then and I grew somewhat tired of it.  But like she says in the song, I, myself cannot wait to go back into Japan, figuratively speaking and get some more fans.

Britney Spears: Till the World Ends

Till the World Ends is a great song, especially in this climate.  It is literally just over three months until the Doomsday scenario (wrote in 2012) that is depicted in the Music video for this song.  It starts off by displaying December 21st, 2012 as that day.  I don't know if I am looking forward to that day or not.  I have heard that it is Judgment day from more than one Religion.  In fact it is pretty prominent in the two major religions of the world, Islam and Christianity, as far as their being a Judgment day.  Britney Spears definitely impressed me with the knowledge of this supposed end of the world scenario.

Britney Spears: Stronger

Stronger is an amazing song.  I always enjoyed but after just listening to it recently, it takes on new meaning.It was released as the third single to Oops!... I did it again and it was a pretty good song choice to release as the third single.  Especially after the release of Lucky and how juvenile that song was.  I still don't like Lucky and prefer Stronger to it, and actually think that Stronger is the best single released from Oops!... I did it again.

Britney Spears: Lucky

Lucky was released as the second single to Oops!... I did it again.  I couldn't stand that song then and I certainly do not like it now.  It reminds me of this really horrible Britney Spears era, let's say pre-Blackout when she was not interesting at all.  I know that sounds strange because everyone loved Britney Spears back then.  However I didn't become a true fan until she became interesting which in my mind was everything after the release of Blackout.  Of course I loved Toxic and so on but she was too interesting during Blackout, too amazing.

Britney Spears: Oops!... I did it Again

Oops!... I did it again was a great song back in the day.  Released at the turn of the Century, it shows with its bubble-gum pop sounds and images from the Music video.  However it's still a Classic so I highly recommend it.  It's actually a Britney Spears signature-song, if not her all-time signature song.  It was the lead single from the album of the same name.  If you ask me it could have done without some of the punctuation.

No Doubt: Settle Down

I am just watching the Music video for Settle Down again.  I am actually really looking forward to getting the Compact Disc for Push and Shove now.  I just had a huge party last night featuring No Doubt and Gwen Stefani of course.  There cannot be a No Doubt party without Gwen Stefani.  But the party was not in vein.  I got lots of work done on my Blog while in the process.

No Doubt featuring Busy Signal and Major Lazer: Push and Shove

Push and Shove is a great song, I highly recommend it.  It's not quite as good as the preceding two songs I have been Blogging about (wrote way before I fell in love with Push and Shove). But it is good none the less.  The two songs I am referring to are Settle Down and Looking Hot.  Those two songs also happen to be the first two singles released from the album of the same name.

No Doubt: Looking Hot

Looking Hot was a great single. It's too bad the Music video was pulled due to sensitivity in the Native American community. I thought it depicted the Native American community very well in this day and age where aboriginals are often forgotten. In fact, with all the multiculturalism that America has faced in recent years. I would have to say that it was a great homage to a community that was here before all of the new communities, for example, the Muslim community.

No Doubt: One more Summer

One more Summer actually sounds pretty good but I don't know if I am ready to think about summer again, with Halloween just around the corner and Christmas coming up.  I get right tired of the Seasons once they pass and I am trying to celebrate Halloween right now even though there are Christmas trees out already and that is depressing enough when I want to think of scary and frightening things.

No Doubt: Heaven

I was going to stop writing for my Blog but then I decided to listen to Heaven and I was all inspired again.  Heaven is a great song and I highly recommend it.  It is partially written by Gwen Stefani and that is great because not only is she a great writer but she writes about topics I enjoy, including but not limited to Heaven.

No Doubt: Undercover

Undercover is a pretty good song.  So far I don't like any of the songs that I have just started Blogging about because I have just started listening to them and they need to grow on me.

No Doubt: Easy

The first run-through of Easy was pretty good but I had a feeling it was a slower song and I am not really in the mood for slow songs right now.  However the next song on the album sounds promising, but I am going to wait to listen to it.  It sounds like Hey Baby a bit, from Rock Steady.  So back to Easy, it’s ok and I would listen to it at least once, but it’s not a seller in my opinion.

Linkin Park: Victimized

The track entitled Victimized that appears as the seventh on Living Things, Linkin Park's fifth and most recent Studio album, is pretty exciting. It's unusually short compared to the remix of it available on Recharged, but it is still pretty good. The remix on Recharged is done by M. Shinoda, a prominent member of Linkin Park itself.

Linkin Park: Burn it Down

Burn it Down was released as the lead single from Living Things. That was the name of Linkin Park's fifth and most recent Studio album. They have plans to drop another Studio album in 2014 and just dropped a remix album on October 29th, 2013 to accompany Living Things.

Linkin Park: Hybrid Theory

Hybrid Theory is turning out to be a pretty good album. I had a feeling I wouldn't like it but that quickly vanished once I started to discover it. In fact it turns out to be very well-written and even though you might think it wouldn't be as a result of how Linkin Park looked back then. I would have to say that you shouldn't judge a book by its cover even though I do, generally speaking.

Linkin Park: Lost in the Echo

Lost in the Echo was released as the second single from Living Things. It appears as the first track on that album and there is a great remix of Lost in the Echo available on Recharged, done by Killsonik. Recharged is Linkin Park's second remix album and Living Things is their fifth and most recent Studio album.

Linkin Park: One Step Closer

One Step Closer was released as the lead single from Linkin Park's debut Studio album entitled Hybrid Theory. It's a great album and I have only just begun discovering it. Hybrid Theory is very well-written, One Step Closer being the most well-written thus far.

Linkin Park: Points of Authority

I am blown away. Even Points of Authority is amazing, the track that follows With You on Hybrid Theory, With You following the lead single from Hybrid Theory; One Step Closer. Wow I can't even believe I just said that. It's so amazing how Linkin Park blows me away like that, it's due in large part to Chester Bennington. I am addicted to the sound of his voice.

Linkin Park: Victimized [M. Shinoda]

The M. Shinoda remix of Victimized is very entertaining. It appears as the track following the Killsonik remix of Lost in the Echo on Recharged and that is how I discovered it. I don't know how I got involved with the Killsonik remix of Lost in the Echo, other than Lost in the Echo was released as the second single from Living Things. However, discovering the M. Shinoda remix of Victimized was as a result of my love for the Killsonik remix of Lost in the Echo which precedes the M. Shinoda remix of Victimized on Recharged.

Madonna: Vogue

The single entitled Vogue was released in the year 1990. I am still fascinated with how much people appreciate Vogue. But it's mostly because Madonna pretty much reached the height of her career all the way back then. However unlike most artists that have come and gone since, Madonna is still going strong, as far as earning the top spot on Forbes as the biggest female earner of 2012.

Madonna: Gang Bang

Gang Bang appears as the second track on the album entitled MDNA. It was not released as a single but Madonna performs a great rendition of it during her 2012 MDNA world tour. She just released that tour on Digital media and it's stellar. Gang Bang is a very well-written song.

Madonna: Celebration

Celebration was released as the lead single from the Greatest hits album of the same name. There was actually a follow up single released following that, which I will get to in a moment. But for now, it's all about Celebration. Madonna released the Music video for free, online and there were several remixes released as well. I own most, if not all.

Madonna: Beautiful Killer

Beautiful Killer was not released as an official single from the album entitled MDNA and it is not even available on the standard edition of that album. However it's a great song and so therefore I recommend the deluxe edition of MDNA, as opposed to the standard edition, for that reason and because there is a great remix of Give me all your luvin' on it.

Madonna: Vogue (live MDNA world tour)

The live version of Vogue from the MDNA world tour is pretty exciting. Madonna has performed this song in five of her last seven tours. It's her signature song so she needs to keep it alive or she won't draw in the common folk. Those are the kind of people that are attracted to this song, whereas I do not like it nearly as much as some of her other material.

Madonna: I'm addicted (live MDNA world tour)

I'm addicted, the version that appears on the MDNA world tour, is pretty exciting. I have not been listening to it nonstop or anything, but once in a while I do and it's pretty exciting. It's not an extremely well-written song but it is good filler and I like the reference to MDNA and MDMA.

Madonna: Turn up the radio (live MDNA world tour)

The live version of Turn up the radio is a great version. Turn up the radio was released as the third single from the album entitled MDNA. It followed the highlight of MDNA, which in my opinion was the single entitled Girl Gone wild.

Linkin Park: Powerless

The album version of Powerless is pretty exciting. It appears as the twelfth and final track on the album entitled Living Things. That album was released as Linkin Park's fifth and most recent Studio album. They have plans to release their sixth in 2014.

Linkin Park: Victimized

Victimized appears as a track that has been remixed by Mike Shinoda on Recharged but the album version appears on Living Things. That album was released as Linkin Park's fifth Studio album and Recharged, their second remix album.

Linkin Park: One Step Closer

One Step Closer was released as the lead single from the album entitled Hybrid Theory, that album was released as Linkin Park's debut Studio album. I have been enjoying it thoroughly. Linkin Park is a great band and Chester Bennington is a great vocalist.

Linkin Park: Waiting for the End

Waiting for the End was released as the second single from the album entitled A Thousand Suns. That album was released as Linkin Park's fourth Studio album and was the first Linkin Park album I ever purchased. However it didn't end there. I now have four.

Smashing Pumpkins: The Everlasting Gaze

The Everlasting Gaze was released as the lead single from the album entitled MACHINA/the machines of God, in North America. That is, Stand Inside Your Love, was released as the lead single from MACHINA/the machines of God in the rest of the world. Both are great singles, my favorite ever released by the Smashing Pumpkins. I love MACHINA/the machines of God.

Smashing Pumpkins: Stand Inside Your Love

Stand Inside Your Love was released as the second single from the album entitled MACHINA/the machines of God. That album was released by the Smashing Pumpkins. I got this album upon its release, all the way back at the turn of this most recent century. However, in my opinion, it is still relevant to this day. The Smashing Pumpkins are one band that has stood the test of time, in my opinion.

Linkin Park x Steve Aoki: A Light that Never Comes

A Light that Never Comes was released as the lead single from Recharged. That album was released as Linkin Park's second remix album and the song entitled A Light that Never Comes was released by Linkin Park and Steve Aoki. The track was produced by band member Mike Shinoda with additional production by Steve Aoki and Brad Delson.

Hard Rock Sofa & Swanky Tunes: Here we Go

The second track included on the Deluxe edition of Until Now is pretty exciting. It's entitled Here We Go and it is listed as being produced or released by Hard Rock Sofa & Swanky Tunes. I am unfamiliar with their work but it's a good track. The Deluxe edition of Until Now blows me away. It's also known as the European standard edition so it's no wonder given my love for Europe and the European Union.

Miike Snow: The Wave (Thomas Gold remix edit)

The Thomas Gold remix edit of The Wave by Miike Snow is pretty intense. The Swedish indie pop band called Miike Snow makes an appearance on Swedish House Mafia's first compilation album as well; Until One being their first and Until Now being their second. Therefore the Thomas Gold remix edit of The Wave appears on their second, Until Now, albeit the Deluxe or European standard edition.

Usher: Euphoria (Swedish House Mafia extended Dub)

The Swedish House Mafia extended Dub of Euphoria is great. Euphoria appeared as a track on Usher's seventh Studio album entitled Looking 4 Myself. But it hasn't been until my purchase of the Deluxe edition of Until Now that I have really begun to enjoy it; albeit in the form of the Swedish House Mafia extended Dub.

Calvin Harris featuring Florence Welch: Sweet Nothing

Sweet Nothing is a great track. I was listening to a remix of it earlier today that I actually received on Compact Disc prior to receiving Calvin Harris' 18 months on Compact Disc. The remix is amazing in and of itself. However the album version is superior.

Swedish House Mafia featuring John Martin: Don't you worry child

The version of Don't you worry Child that appears on the Deluxe edition of Until Now is pretty exciting. I actually like it more than what I am calling the album version from the standard edition of Until Now. The version that appears on the Deluxe edition is more like a radio edit as opposed to an album version. It is roughly one minute shorter.

Axwell/Swedish House Mafia: Heart is King/Save the World (Knife Party remix)

There is a track which is a mix of two tracks on the Deluxe edition of Until Now entitled Heart is King/Save the World and it is amazing. It's the Knife Party remix of Save the World above and beyond that; however it's a very short track, but one of my favorites.

Dirty South & Those usual suspects featuring Erik Hecht/Swedish House Mafia vs. Tinie Tempah: Walking alone/Miami 2 Ibiza

The track entitled Walking alone/Miami 2 Ibiza that appears on the Deluxe edition of Until Now is exciting. Walking alone is something I do a lot for the sake of my health because no one my age wants to work out anymore unless you do it professionally. Most of my classmates from high school, for example, are morbidly obese and have children. It's sad but it's the state of North American affairs. That is unless you have climbed on board the Euro rail from Miami 2 Ibiza, no pun intended.

Linkin Park: Living Things

I just ripped the album entitled Living Things onto my computer so I can listen to it on my MP3 player. I still use my MP3 player to listen to music most of the time. However once in a while I listen to the actual CD. It's a treat, I love it. Living Things was released as the fifth and most recent Studio album by Linkin Park.

Linkin Park: Burn it Down

Burn it Down was released as the lead single from Living Things. The remix of Burn it Down by Tom Swoon that appears on Recharged is also exciting but I do prefer the album version. There are many more lyrics included on the album version of Burn it Down and so the premise of the song remains clear as opposed to the remix that is somewhat ambiguous.

Linkin Park: Lost in the Echo

Lost in the Echo was released as the second single from Living Things and is the first track included on that album. Lost in the Echo is very well-written and the remix care of Killsonik that appears on Linkin Park's second remix album entitled Recharged; is very exciting. Living Things was released as Linkin Park's fifth and most recent Studio album.

Linkin Park: Waiting for the End

Waiting for the End was released as the second single from A Thousand Suns. I just finished watching the Music video on YouTube; Linkin Park's official YouTube channel entitled Linkin Park. The music video is amazing and the song itself is very well-written.

Linkin Park: Powerless [Enferno]

The remix of Powerless by Enferno that appears on Recharged is pretty exciting. I just got the album version not too long ago and so to hear the remix again is exciting. I am very familiar with Enferno, the DJ that mixed the version of Powerless that appears on Recharged, and so that excites me. He has worked with the likes of Madonna, LMFAO and Far East Movement.

Linkin Park: Lost in the Echo [Killsonik]

The Killsonik remix of Lost in the Echo is so good! I love the way Chester Bennington sings. He has great pitch and the style in which he sings is also phenomenal. It took me a while to get into Linkin Park, but I have always been attracted to their music. It's just I wanted to save the best for last kind of thing.

Linkin Park x Steve Aoki: A Light that Never Comes

A Light that Never Comes was released as the lead single from Recharged. Recharged was released as the second remix album by Linkin Park on October 29th, 2013. That was an exciting time period for me even though I didn't get Recharged until a few weeks later. However I still enjoyed it.

Madonna: Erotica

Erotica was released as the lead single from the album of the same name. That album was released in 1992 but it is still pretty relevant considering the level of production it has. The production is so tight that I would even compare it to an album from this century and find it hard to conclude that Erotica wouldn't be as good. Erotica is one of Madonna's best releases.

Madonna: Open your heart

Open your heart was released as the third official single from the album entitled True Blue that is in terms of tracks that were solely available on True Blue. Live to Tell; for example, was released prior to the release of the album entitled True Blue because it was included on a Soundtrack album as well.

Madonna: Turn up the radio

Turn up the radio was released as the third single from the album entitled MDNA. That album was released as Madonna's twelfth and she just wrapped her MDNA tour at the end of last year, having just since released the Digital media for it. The live version of Turn up the radio from the MDNA world tour is pretty exciting.

Madonna featuring Lil Wayne: Revolver

Revolver was released as the second single from the Greatest hits album entitled Celebration. Celebration, the album, was released in 2009 and there was a video collection which accompanied that. I neglected to buy the Compact disc because I own most of Madonna's material. However I did buy the video collection on DVD. I still watch it and listen to it.

Madonna: Turn up the radio (live MDNA world tour)

The live version of Turn up the radio from the MDNA world tour is pretty exciting. I am a fan of the album version, having been released as an official single. Turn up the radio has great lyrical content. Talking about a glow of a distant light and how it calls you to come outside. What I am looking forward to is Venus, tonight; the brightest star in the sky.

Madonna: Papa Don’t preach (live MDNA world tour)

The Live version of Papa Don't preach that is available on the MDNA world tour is very amazing. As short as it is, it excites me because Madonna has not performed Papa Don't preach for quite some time. It's only around a minute long, but it is very inspiring considering the maturity in her voice.

Madonna: Virgin Mary [Intro] (live MDNA world tour)

The intro entitled Virgin Mary that appears before the opening number on the MDNA world tour is very exciting. In the performance, Madonna prays to God by getting down on her knees, making the sign of the Cross and then proceeds to say 'Oh my God, I'm heartily sorry for having offended thee and I detest all my sins because I dread the loss of heaven and the pain of hell. But most of all because I love thee and I want so badly to be good.' That part throws me for a loop, to hear someone with such a Holy name as Madonna praying to God. For your information, the Madonna is sometimes used to refer to the Blessed Virgin Mary.

Linkin Park: Powerless

The album version of Powerless is pretty exciting. It appears as the twelfth and final track on Living Things. Linkin Park's fifth Studio album is entitled Living Things and I just received it on Compact disc the other day. It was exciting and listening to it is even more exciting.

Linkin Park: Victimized

The album version of Victimized is significantly shorter than the remix available on Recharged. In fact, the remix by M. Shinoda, is much more exciting as a result of its Drum n Bass influence. M. Shinoda is a member of Linkin Park, his full name being Mike Shinoda. However he seems to have some pretty good production skills so I would have to say that he is a very valuable member of Linkin Park.

Linkin Park: Living Things

I can't even listen to Living Things yet because the anticipation of listening to it is exciting enough. I don't want to overwhelm myself and to be honest with you; just looking at the album artwork drives me wild. I do however have the Compact disc of Living Things so unlike someone with just the MP3 of the album; I have a booklet with lyrics above and beyond the jewel case it comes in.

Linkin Park: Burn it Down

The album version of Burn it Down is pretty exciting. I actually prefer it to the remix of Burn it Down available on Recharged because there is more lyrical content. The remix is mostly just the chorus in a repetitive fashion. However it is exciting on some level.

Linkin Park: Castle of Glass

The album version of Castle of Glass is pretty exciting. The M. Shinoda remix appears on Recharged, the second remix album released by Linkin Park. But it's refreshing to hear the album version because the remix is so good. Therefore I can't stop listening to it and so the album version provides good contrast.

Linkin Park: Lost in the Echo

Lost in the Echo was released as the second single from Living Things and is included as the first track from that album. The album version, therefore, of Lost in the Echo is quite exciting. Although I would have to say that I prefer the remix available on Recharged by Killsonik. Recharged is the title of Linkin Park's second remix album.

Linkin Park: Lost in the Echo [Killsonik]

I was listening to the Killsonik remix of Lost in the Echo today and was once again blown away. It seems unfathomable to me how much I like it. Linkin Park has really grown on me. I suppose it has something to do with their transition into Electrorock which seems to be a very interesting genre of music right now.

No Doubt: Making Out

The track entitled Making Out found on No Doubt's fifth Studio album entitled Rock Steady is pretty interesting. I knew it would be, I just needed to refresh my memory. I basically have not heard Making Out since the release of Rock Steady, all the way back in 2001. That was the second last time No Doubt released a Studio album, the last being last year. That album, Push and Shove, is amazing.

Daft Punk: Short Circuit

Short Circuit appears as the twelfth track on Discovery, preceding the promotional single that was released prior to the fifth and final single. The fifth and final being Something about us and the promotional single that was released prior to that was Face to Face. Face to Face is good, Short Circuit is even better but Something about us (the single that was released out of the three) is not very exciting.

Britney Spears: Work B**ch!

The lead single from Britney's upcoming eighth Studio album is very exciting. I am in love with it and I can't get enough of it. It's entitled Work B**ch! and in my opinion has some really great lyrics. Lyrically speaking, Britney is not usually a go to artist but I feel very strongly about this song considering its reference to Partying in France.

Rebecca & Fiona: Bullets (Club edit)

Bullets, the track included on Club Life volume one Las Vegas by Rebecca & Fiona, is a great track. Rebecca & Fiona are from Sweden, Stockholm the capital city to be exact. Which is a very prominent member state in the European Union, not a member of the Euro zone as of yet. But still heavily influential in the European parliamentary system; representing one of the largest economies in the European Union.

Gwen Stefani: What you waiting for?

What you waiting for? was the debut single released by Gwen Stefani as a solo artist. She made a pretty good attempt at a solo career. However I always preferred her role as the lead singer of No Doubt and so once she finished her attempt at a solo career, she brilliantly reunited with No Doubt. Unlike some solo artists that just can't take a hint, i.e. Beyonce Knowles.

Britney Spears: Gimme More (Kaskade Club mix)

The Kaskade Club mix of Gimme More is exciting. I just finished listening to part of the album version and it, too, was exciting. The album on which it is from, entitled Blackout, is one of my favorite Studio albums of any artist, let alone Britney's. I love her musical style for the most part.

No Doubt featuring Busy Signal and Major Lazer: Push and Shove

Push and Shove is the name of No Doubt's sixth Studio album. The title track is amazing. They are due to release a follow up to that album in 2014, which to me is phenomenal, considering that I basically waited eleven years for them to release Push and Shove. Gwen Stefani is so exciting to me right now.

Linkin Park: New Divide

New Divide was released as the lead single from Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen; that is the soundtrack album. I remember that song fondly, as I used to own the movie on DVD. It was a great movie and the part in which they played New Divide, is one of my favorite parts, if not my favorite.

Linkin Park: Burn it Down

The Music video for Burn it Down is pretty exciting. I just finished watching it on DVD. I taped it from the internet using my DVD recorder which is strange. I don't know how many people can say that. I don't know very many people who even have a DVD recorder, let alone a Blu-ray Player that is connected to it on which I can watch YouTube videos because of its ability to connect to the internet.

Linkin Park: Waiting for the End

Wow I haven't written about Waiting for the End for a long time. But while I was reading the Holy Qur’an I couldn't help but think of it. Now most of you reading this would think the two have nothing to do with each other. But I can guarantee you that they do, having read some of the Qur’an and listened to Waiting for the End for a long time now.

Linkin Park: Powerless [Enferno]

The Enferno remix of Powerless is pretty exciting. Enferno, or DJ Enferno as he is better known as, as far as I know is a very exciting DJ. He has even gone so far as to work with Madonna whom I adore. In fact I remember specifically that he appeared with her on tour while she was promoting her eleventh Studio album entitled Hard Candy.

Linkin Park: I'll Be Gone [Schoolboy]

The Schoolboy remix of I'll Be Gone is pretty exciting. I don't know much about the song entitled I'll Be Gone but it has good lyrical content. It was released as a promotional single from the album entitled Living Things, the fifth Studio album released by Linkin Park.

Linkin Park: Victimized [M. Shinoda]

The M. Shinoda remix of Victimized is pretty exciting. It's a little Drum n Bass if you ask me and I like that. The album on which it appears, Recharged, is Linkin Park's second remix album and I love it. Recharged is very Electrorock.

Linkin Park: Lost in the Echo [Killsonik]

The Killsonik remix of Lost in the Echo is super amazing. I can't even believe as I sit here, how talented and how amazed with Linkin Park I am. They truly blow me away as a very important rock band from the decade of the 2000s let's say. They are still going strong but I am most familiar with them from that decade. However I have only recently begun to purchase their music.

No Doubt: Settle Down

Settle Down is seriously one of the best songs I have ever heard.  I was so disappointed when I found out that I wouldn’t be able to get it.  But guess what, I got it anyway.  I have actually only just ordered it, but none the less it’s on the way in the mail.  I can hardly wait, this is one album I have literally been waiting years for, that is Push and Shove.  It is going to be so exciting, as it is already and I am only watching the Music video for Settle Down so far.

No Doubt featuring Busy Signal and Major Lazer: Push and Shove

I am Blogging about Push and Shove even though I have yet to hear the single (written before I heard it). But I have been blogging about Settle Down so much, that I wanted to include other songs.  However, Push and Shove is also the title of No Doubt’s sixth Studio album and since I have been waiting literally years to hear the entire album, I suppose I can wait a while longer in order to Blog about the other songs on the album correctly but I think I will go ahead and improvise the observations I would make about the song before hearing it.

No Doubt: Looking Hot

Looking Hot is a great song, I just can't get enough of it.  All of the singles from Push and Shove are all so exciting but I am actually awaiting the Music video for Looking Hot; as I have seen the Music video for the other two, even though the Music video for Push and Shove is a promotional video only.  After writing this I was able to see the Music video for Looking Hot for a short time before it was pulled.  I loved it.

No Doubt: Easy

Easy is a pretty good song. It is growing on me, but only because I have been waiting for the album on which it is from since 2001. Of course I did not expect it soon after the release of Rock Steady. But once 2008 hit and I started hearing rumors of a final No Doubt album, I began to become eager. No Doubt is one of my favorite bands of all time, if not - my - favorite. I have been following them since Don't Speak and that was released as a single all the way back in 1996.

No Doubt: New

New is such an amazing song.  I can't seem to get enough of it with the onset of Settle Down.  Settle Down is the first release of No Doubt's since the early 2000s (written in the first half of 2012).  That's crazy as far as I am concerned but I am so glad to have them back in my life.  No Doubt is absolutely my favorite Rock band at this point (also wrote in 2012).  They keep impressing me beyond belief.  On another note, the song entitled New was a great release while I waited for No Doubt to follow-up with their fourth Studio album.

No Doubt: Hella Good

Hella Good was released as the second single from Rock Steady; No Doubt's second most recent album.  It's too bad I am so poor, otherwise I would buy their new album on Compact Disc.  That's how much I believe in it, but I have not lost hope yet.  It is number one on my list of CDs to buy along with T.I.'s.

No Doubt: Tragic Kingdom

Tragic Kingdom is an ok song and it is written pretty well but not as well as you would think considering No Doubt named their third Studio album, of the same name.  It appears as the last track on the album aforementioned above, that is Tragic Kingdom, and it is a good slot for the song that they named their third album after but it's a little depressing as opposed to ending on a high note.  However it was a sign of the times as way back in the late 90s; the West was just coming out of an Alternative/Grunge era as far as Musical genres go.

Madonna: Vogue (live MDNA world tour)

The live version of Vogue from the MDNA world tour is pretty exciting. Madonna has performed Vogue in every tour since its inception in 1990, except for the Drowned world tour and the Confessions tour. However she always has a way of re-inventing it. She is the queen of re-invention even naming a tour after the concept of re-inventing.

Madonna: Gang Bang (live MDNA world tour)

Gang bang blows me away. The live version from the MDNA world tour, in particular blows me away. Of course Madonna adlibs a little during the live version and says something that I am still reeling over. However after hearing about a shooting today, I feel bad for listening to it so much. But when she says 'don't f* it up' I go crazy.

Madonna: I'm a sinner (live MDNA world tour)

I'm a sinner is pretty good on the MDNA world tour. That is the live version, on that album; however as far as I know the Hail Mary's are missing. That is a very important part; that I enjoy considering that I often pray Hail Mary's on my own time.
