We're back with another edition to the Songs with the Same Title series! I previously covered rock band Kiss, and now we're shifting focus to the heavy metal band; Judas Priest. If you're new to the series, there will be six rounds, and I'll pick my preferred song from each one. In the end, I'll choose the winner... Continue Reading →
AC/DC’s ‘Stiff Upper Lip’ is a Banger! | Album Review
For my last AC/DC review, I gave my thoughts on Ballbreaker (1995), now I'll be looking at Stiff Upper Lip (2000). I bought the Stiff Upper Lip album in June/July; it's all a blur now. The point is, we're here, and I'm ready to share my thoughts on the band's 15th (13th internationally released) studio album. "Stiff Upper Lip" started the... Continue Reading →
Five Disney Channel Original Movie Songs That Rock
Disney Channel Original Movies (DCOMs) were huge for me, not so much now! But everything from Camp Rock, High School Musical, Lemonade Mouth, and Stuck in the Suburbs, those films were my childhood. Some of the movies were cheesy as heck, but they came with great songs. Most of them were pop songs, but they had some rock moments... Continue Reading →
Songs with the Same Title – Kiss Edition
Happy new year, everyone! How about we do another band for the Songs with the Same Title series to kick off the new year? The next act I will cover in the series will be Kiss. Unlike Bon Jovi, it was harder to find Kiss songs with the same title as other artists' songs, so I had to... Continue Reading →
Reflections on the Year 2020
First of all, I know I had a collage for last year's post reflecting on 2019, but I didn't do that for 2020 because I didn't do much other than write on my blog, watch a lot of YouTube, and listen to bands such as Def Leppard, AC/DC, Metallica, and Iron Maiden. So nothing special, to be... Continue Reading →
Thank Goodness AC/DC Brought Back Phil Rudd for ‘Ballbreaker’! | Album Review
AC/DC was "back in business," thanks to the success of 1990s The Razors Edge, which contains "Moneytalks" and "Thunderstruck." It was their first (and only) studio album with drummer Chris Slade; though, he wouldn't last long as fate would have it that the boys would reunite with former drummer Phil Rudd, who left some big shoes...

‘AC/DC Live’ is Pretty Great! | Album Review
This past Friday, while helping my mom do some last-minute Christmas shopping, I went to the Book Off at Pearlridge, hoping that I'd find at least one new AC/DC album to add to my collection. It wasn't The Razors Edge (1990), but it was something better, AC/DC Live: 2 CD Collector's Edition (1992). As you've read on my previous AC/DC... Continue Reading →
My Favorite Songs – Fall 2020
My last exam is this Wednesday, so I thought now would be the perfect time to wrap up Fall 2020 and talk about my favorite songs from that time since I had so much fun making My Favorite Songs – Summer 2020 post. I tried to diversify this list by including more songs by different artists, but... Continue Reading →
I’m Finally 22, So What’s New?
On Monday, Nov. 30, I turned 22 years old, and no, I did not sing Taylor Swift's "22" that day. But it was a great day; I got to see my grandma, I had chicken katsu from L&L for lunch, two of my Amazon CDs came in, I had spring rolls and fried shrimp for... Continue Reading →
Was AC/DC’s ‘The Razors Edge’ Their Big Comeback?!? | Album Review
I've been all over the place with my AC/DC reviews recently. But this time, I'm going to take on the band's follow-up to Blow Up Your Video (1988). I reviewed that album back in August, which you can find over here. Anyway, today we're focusing on The Razors Edge (1990), which supposedly is AC/DC "comeback" album; I say otherwise, however. ...
