Song Review #15 Coldplay - Adventure Of A Lifetime

I'm here to review the single from Coldplay's A Head
Full of Dreams.

I'll definetly be reviewing this album when it comes out
Because I like Coldplay so yeah.

But is this new single good or s**t?

Well let's find out.

Review time

I really love this song

The song has a really unique tune to it and is jam packed
With energy and just awesome.

Coldplay always mixes it up. I was listening to their older
albums ( I'll be reviewing later ) and they are different.

Which is good because the single here is really great

The lyrics aren't the best but I could forgive that because
the melody is catchy and just perfect.


Maybe It's just me but I found this a really great track

Adventure of a lifetime gets a 10/10

Hopefully the album is good

I'll be reviewing it (or at least try to) on December 4th.
(The album's release date)

Song Review #14 DVBBS - We Were Young

Another DVBBS track

Well yeah this one is a little different (spoiler)

But yeah it doesn't mean it'll be bad. It could be.

But uhh enough of that

Let's get into the review


Review Time

Never Leave and White Clouds were Great.
Unfortuneatly I found We Were Young a disappointment.

The buildup with the piano melody is actually excellent.
Very melodic powerful and awesome.

After that you get this repetitive part where they go
We were young we were dumb we would do it all again
And it's really repetitive and annoying

And then a disappointing drop as well.
I wish they'd use the drop that was from the buildup
But whatever

I'm mixed on this song.

I'll give it a 6/10

Song Review #13 DVBBS - White Clouds

The second track I've heard from DVBBS


Let's just keep this intro short

You know what lets just get right into the review
Here we go

I'm gonna review white clouds

Let's review

The song is Good. It's another solid track from DVBBS.
Solid buildup and for the most part I found the drop good
Too. Vocals were decent too.

I didn't find it as good as Never Leave but it's pretty close
I just think never leave had a better drop

I'll give white clouds a 9/10

Song Review #12 DVBBS - Never Leave

This week I discovered EDM group DVBBS on SiriusXM's
BPM station and decided to look them up I found some music
that I will review later

But i thought I'd start with the song that got me started on
DVBBS

I'm here to review Never Leave

It's probably their newest song I think
It just came out last month

Let's review

I think this song is great.
Great Vibe really optimistic vibe.
Also the vocals are decent and the drop is pretty good
I also love the little noises in the background as well

This is an overall fantastic EDM track and id recommend
it for anyone who likes Melodic EDM. It's not a banger.
But it's good for what it is


Pretty damn good song 10/10

Song Review #11 Rebecca Black - Friday

Now I know what you're thinking

OH GOD! JUST WHEN I THINK THE WORLD HAS
FORGOTTEN THIS AWFUL SONG, SOMEONE
BRINGS IT BACK UP. - Average Friday Hater.


But bear with me. Here's why I chose to review this song


I've heard numerous bad things being said about this song
So tonight I went and listened to the whole song.

Now I have my opinion ready.


I'm not being another one of those generic "Friday Sucks" people
But this song has numerous problems

Firstly and foremost,
The vocals on this song are ATROCIOUS!
I mean seriously it just sounds like she's trying to butcher
Something instead of actually sing. It's extremely annoying.

Secondly,

The lyrics,
To me ( just my opinion) these just sound like generic
Lyrics about partying on Fridays. Lazy ones too, because
In parts of this song you can tell this song is completely
forced and it's extremely noticable.


Thirdly

THE FACT THAT THIS WAS EVEN POPULAR
Now I'm not meaning that in a way because I hate it
I mean this was probably a huge hit back in 2011.
Everyone knew this song. Many people hated it but
also people liked it too so yeah it was a hit


Honestly I feel like this was extremely forced.
In fact this is probably what happened.

Some record company caught on to her for whatever
reason I don't know. Then decide she should be famous
for a song. Then they send her in and realize either she can't
song or her voice isn't what they wanted it to be for the song.

So throw in a lot of grating auto-tune and some extremely
Generic uninspired and cliche lyrics about middle school
and partying on Friday plus a bubblegum generic beat

And you get what is considered by some to be one of If not
the worst song ever


Honestly I think the best part of the song is the beat. Although
Generic and cliche, it's a little bit catchy


Nothing else positive though.

Friday gets a 1/10 

Absolutely Terrible song

Album Review #35 Adele - 25

The new album by Adele is here finally Sorry i couldn't post my keyboard on my phone is
Acting up and still is so yeah

Anyways Adele's new album 25 is topping the charts
And I'm seeing it in like every store there's like at least
50 copies there with posters and signs and stuff
This album is big

But is it good? Well I guess you'll have to read to find out

Review

I know I'm going to get some flack for this but well
It's...... Decent

Yes Adele super fans will be mad that I called
her album only decent but I'll explain why


First the positives

First of all more positives then negatives

Adele has a good voice.
She uses real instruments in her songs
Most of the songs on her album are at least
Alright.
And there is quite a bit of soul in her songs

Negatives
Honestly if you want to do an album with all
ballads then you better make sure you know how to
Do it.
And while, quite a few of the ballads are acceptable,
Others sound well... The same.
And also at times her voices hits these points where I
Find it actually annoying.

There are a few great tracks some decent ones and
a few good ones

Overall the quality range on this album ranged from
Average to Great

That's not too bad.

Actually I personally think this album is good
It's just not perfect 10 good for me anyways.

I'll give it an 8/10

Special Post: Why I Love Maroon 5 So Much

For those who read my blog on the weekend countdown, a Maroon 5
song always is in Green its Because well yes the song is good
But also because M5 is my favorite band

But this post is about how Maroon 5 became my favorite band.
It may be a little lengthy but for fellow Maroon 5 fans
This post is for you


I've always thought maroon 5 always made solid hit songs
But back in 2011-2013 before I was a major critic that I am now
I only knew maroon 5's newer hits at the time ( Misery,Moves Like
Jagger, One More Night, and Payphone etc. )

But it wasn't til Early this year that I truly realized how
good this band really is.

I searched Maroon 5 on iTunes and along with their new hits,
was Maroon 5's older music as well and I thought well
Let's just check out all their albums

Chronologically first is Songs About Jane.
I listened to the whole thing and fell in love with about half the songs on
there at first listen (the other half I loved later.) The album was amazing
I guess I was just fascinated by how good real instruments sounded.
Because of how overproduced today's music is ( not using as an
insult just stating ) the album on iTunes is has pretty good reviews
And honestly Without Songs About Jane, the band wouldn't be
as loved or as popular as they are, or at least this album was.
THIS ALBUM IS AMAZING


Next Sophomore release, It Won't Be Soon Before Long
As much as fans dissed this album at first for not
having quite exactly the same sound as SAJ, honestly
I think that was a great idea to mix things up a little.
And sure there are still Moments of SAJ in here, but
Overall there's a different tone, and I think it works
very well. Whatever style they choose, I think Maroon
5's Music always has this little charm to it.
I was also very pleased with this album. I think it is just
about as quality as SAJ. Maybe SAJ is a tiny bit better
But they're both amazing


Third we have Hands All Over
This album is very different from both of the previous two
Both in sound and in feel. Honestly as much as
impressed as I am with the growth of the band, I honestly
didn't think this album is as good as the previous two
Maybe it's just the vibe. Or that it was produced by
Different people. The album was still good though.
Plenty of good songs. Just not Maroon 5's best that's all.
But Kudos to songs like Misery,Don't Know Nothing,
Give A Little More, and Moves Like Jagger.


Fourth we have Overexposed
This album is..... Very different
At first this album in my opinion.... Sucked.
I criticized this album at first for having pop dance beats
Instead of the actual guitars and drums they once had.
Also I found the lyrics throughout awkward.
After I heard the song Tickets thought I thought
This is a really good song. Which made me think
There is good to be found on Overexposed
And to give it another chance.
Honestly after I relistened a few more times, more
and more songs grew into me and I love every song on
This album now. It's a very good album. It's just so catchy
and different that I like it now. Nothing much to say but
give it a chance and you'll like it


Finally we have V

V is the fifth album by Maroon 5. The hit song Maps got
me excited for this one. It was really catchy and I found
That a great song. The album has a lot in common with
Overexposed and a lot different.

They both use pop sounds. But instead V is more of
A love album. Anyways at first the album was kinda
Meh to Me. Maybe just because I let too many reviews
Influence my opinion.

But Adam still sings flawlessly and it's so catchy.



Maroon 5 will definitely always be one of my favorites

New Entrants

There could've been a worse Re-Entry song
But there could've been better instead of
That's How You Know

Drake - Hotline Bling honestly in quality is not very
good but I like the song because it's kind of a party
Rap song with The Trap  beat and everything
I doubt this will stay green but for now it is.


Blurbs

~ Adele hit number 1! How predictable.

~ Thinking Out Loud is getting ridiculous but
Honestly I don't want it to leave because I like it when
Songs last a whole year just 6 more weeks then I want
it gone for good

~ Coldplay - Adventure Of A Lifetime is on Hit-Bound
I'm really diggin this song. Just putting that out there.

~ There are still quite a bit of good songs on here
The Hits 1 playlist I'm happy to report overall is pretty
Good right now

~ Decent jump for Demi Lovato - Confident it's not fantastic
But it's good and I'll take that over a huge jump from a
Song like Bad Blood or Can't Feel My Face

~ Daya - Hide Away is still doing really well.

~ Ariana Grande - Focus is on Hit-Bound. This song probably
Could've hit number 1 if it had debuted 2 weeks ago. But it's
Slipping on iTunes and now I doubt it will be as big a hit.



That's all for blurbs thanks guys :)

Album Review #34 One Direction - Made In The A.M.

The fifth and possible final album for British boy band
1D. In my opinion they've changed a lot over the years

They replaced the bubblegum pop with a more mature sound
While, of course, still sticking to the elements that make
Them 1D


anyways let's review


REVIEW TIME


This album is Good. Maybe even great. Almost every song
On this album I enjoyed.

There's not really much I have to say about this one it's Just
Solid. The vocals are great,the lyrics aren't bad. The music
Is pretty catchy.

There's not much in the way of flaws except I didn't really
Care for the song "Olivia"

But other than that very enjoyable album


I'll give it a 9/10

Album Review #33 Ellie Goulding - Delirium

Hey guys welcome to my review of Ellie Goulding's Delirium

This was a highly anticipated album for me
Because I think she has a great voice and her music
So far has been mostly good

REVIEW TIME


When I first heard On My Mind, honestly I thought it
Was a generic,bland, repetitive song. I quickly grew into
It though so I was excited for this album


Unfortunately, this album was almost a complete letdown.
There are three big problems that permiated most of this
album.

1. The Repetition

This album is full of repetitive choruses that really distract
from the lyrical creativity and vocal quality of this album.

I don't mind an averagely repetitive chorus like with most
Pop songs today, but she just goes overboard here.


2. Music Sounding The Same

Majority of the songs on this album is Ellie singing to bland,
generic, and safe pop music. Which at times I've forgave
but it's one of those albums I feel doesn't work having
every song sound the same. Especially having as many as
22 songs on your deluxe version. It makes me feel like you
could probably cut 10 songs off of it and made the other 12
More quality.


3. Max Martin Fail

I heard from a review that Max Martin produced
this album. Which I guess is what I have to pin the blame on
here for the bland,generic,safe production

Max Martin has produced some great albums before
(The Original High, Overexposed ) so it was pretty
disappointing overall

I'd say there was about 5 good songs out of 22

Which is about 2/10 plus one for good Ellie vocals


It gets a very sad 3/10

Album Review #32 Little Mix - Get Weird

Little Mix released their third album yesterday and I'm
Here to review it
It's called Get Weird

Well let's start the review

REVIEW TIME


The album is more of a bubblegum pop record Which
I wouldn't really consider a bad thing, but what I will
consider a bad thing is that the album sounds very basic.

Also the album wasn't really even focused that much
on encouraging people to get weird it was mostly love songs
Which while not bad and yes they do have good voices, the
Music sounds basic, generic and bland at times.

Also it doesn't feel like there's much growth in this band
at all like I don't expect a band like this to write really
romantic love songs but I what I mean by growth is
Making the music better as well

But instead it's just the same generic average pop music
I've heard a million times before with no growth added

There are some positives I will say here
I do like their voices. Some of the songs aren't bad.
In fact some are good. It's just I'm not really a fan
of little mix because they continue to make the same
Bland boring pop music

And I mean it's really a shame they couldn't of spent
Just a little more time making the music better

But instead the album was a letdown. No actually it wasn't
Because I was only expecting the album to be average
And yeah it only met my expectations


Get Weird gets a 4/10

Album Review #31 5 Seconds Of Summer - Sounds Good Feels Good

This is My Review on 5 Seconds Of Summer's Sophomore release,
Sounds Good, Feels Good. I hope you guys enjoy my review
But is this album as good as the title says it is ????
Thats for you to find out

REVIEW TIME

5 Seconds Of Summer is mainly loved by teenage girls
And stuff like that but I believe they really are a different
Kind of band then most in the band

The Album is Good

There are some really good songs here

I Love She's Kinda Hot and Hey Everybody!
They are great singles

What I really like about the album is that the punk/rock
Feel to it which adds energy to the album and keeps it
From sounding bland and makes it easy for you to tell
Them apart

Also I do like the vocals on this album from the soft
Ballads such as Invisible and to more upbeat songs
Like She's Kinda Hot

This album didn't disappoint at all. One of the best
things about 5 Seconds Of Summer is the powerful
vocals mixed with the guitars and everything sounds
Pretty good

Downsides are there was maybe one or two songs I
Didn't care for such as Money but only because they kinda
Sounded the same


But aside from that this is a really good album and I
Recommend it

I'll give it a 9/10

New Entrants

I knew What Do You Mean ? Would come back
It left way too early

Adele - Hello for now is good she's great in the chorus
But the song is a little slow but for now it's good


Blurbs


What a string of good songs from #22 to #14

Adam Lambert - Ghost Town should not be dropping
It's so good

Hozier - Someone New is in blue because
It's kinda repetitive and it's a little boring
But he is a good singer I just think
Take Me To Church was better

Taylor Swift - Wildest Dreams is not getting the success
Her earlier 1989 singles did

I hope locked away gets number 1 I doubt it will but
Ex's and Oh's better not

My review on Ex's And Oh's is that it's really mediocre
Her voice is annoying and it's just boring and bad all around

And that's it for the blurbs I'll see about getting a top 40 list up


And MORE ALBUM REVIEW ARE COMING
THIS WEEK PROBABLY AROUND WEDNESDAY
