I was a huge One Direction fan back in high school and I still listen to their music sometimes. Not often, but sometimes. When it comes to the members' solo careers, I only pay attention to Harry Styles and Louis Tomlinson. Styles has been a hit or miss with me; I hated Fine Line (2019),... Continue Reading →
I’ve been wanting to do this post for a long time because as a life-long fan of American Idol (2002 - 2016 and 2018 - present), I’ve noticed that some songs are cursed.

Since the memories of Adam Lambert’s brilliant performances are still fresh in my mind, I thought it’d be a perfect opportunity to rank my top five performances of his from the show. I’m only doing five because... Continue Reading →
Before we get started, I’d just like to say that I will forever be grateful for American Idol (2002 - 2016 and 2018 - present) because it introduced me to the music of legends like Elton John, Foreigner, Bon Jovi, Queen, and Judas Priest. Unfortunately, the show has gone on for way too long and... Continue Reading →

Disclaimer: I'm sorry if I offend any Jon Bon Jovi fans throughout this post, as these are strictly my opinions and Richie Sambora was the reason why I got into Bon Jovi in the first place. Richie Sambora hit it big when he became the guitarist for Bon Jovi. From 1983 to 2013, Sambora helped... Continue Reading →
We are finally down to the last album in the first five Dio album review series, Lock Up the Wolves (1990). The album saw a dramatic change in the line-up including Rowan Robertson on guitar, Jens Johansson on keyboards, Teddy Cook on bass, and Simon Wright (the name sounds familiar) on drums. If you haven’t... Continue Reading →
