I am not a feminist, far from it, but I can't lie. I love the occasional "girl-power" tune. There are certain moments in life that require an empowering superwoman song and nothing else: getting ready for a girls night out, girls night in, basically anything "girls"-related. Thankfully, women can indulge no matter what their taste in music are, from House music to Rock going through RnB. There is as song for all the "Independent Women" out there, we just had the tough job of narrowing them down to 5.
If there is one feeling that Sunday brings out in most people, it's Hope. Hope that the new upcoming week will be better than the one before. Hope that something they've been working on the past week will bare it's fruits. Or the hope that Monday never happens. Whatever you are hoping for, there are songs created to keep the faith alive. Whether for a tiny little desire or life altering decisions. We've round up the Top 5: Hopeful Songs, we hope you enjoy them too.
We know, We know we are in Spring, but let's not pretend we are longing for beach weather, bikinis and cool breezes. Don't lie. Spring might be pretty but Summer is the fun season. We've already rounded up our predictions for Summer hits, so far at least for your listening pleasure. We couldn't wait anymore so here they are. We will not apologize.
When at 3 o’clock in the morning you find yourself incapable of sleeping, you do one of two things. You either stare at the ceiling while still in bed, or you make yourself useful. I usually do the first, but last night seemed like a second option kind of night. Of course I couldn’t be productive without music, which leads us to today’s Top 5: Best Can’t –Sleep Songs.
Some of us are pretty close to our families. Not only us, mere mortals, but some artists and musicians as well. In some countries, it was a couple of weeks ago Mother's Day and Father's Day is just around the corner, so we've taken upon ourselves the task of finding some of the best family themed songs, past and present, and round them up all nicely in our lovely Top 5. Careful, a few of them are tear-jerkers.
Call me crazy, but Sundays should be reserved for stuffing your face without guilt, being lazy without guilt and listening to good music. Nothing more. Only the best food, lounging place and music will do. So for your pleasure, and the possiblity of making this Sunday just a tad more agreeable (can never have too much of that) we've chosen some of the coolest, slowest and most relaxing oldies we could find. You are welcome.
Everybody might hate Mondays, but for me it's Wednesdays. So when I needed something smooth, cool and soulful to give me the necessary courage and mental strength to face work, I put together this list of Top 5: Most soulful (Modern) Songs, to keep me zen and get me to Sunday in one piece. All the artists in that list are contemporary bands, I chose them instead of the classic usual ones (who are gold, don't get me wrong), because I think that new up and coming or established artists such as the following show the world that there is still hope for music. And that's exactly what I'm looking for. Hope.
Since a few days ago we posted the opposite Top 5, we thought it was only fair that we saluted the ones that make us swoon and our hearts melt when they belt out our favorite tunes. So, may we present to you a few of the singers with the sexiest voices out there, according to our ears, of course...
I know it's a bad thing to be judgmental about an artist's voice, especially when you can't sing yourself. But some of them are sooo bad, they can actually be physically painful to listen to. You can't get past the horrible noise... I mean sound of their voices. However, with that being said, let's not forget that some people, though they were not blessed with a beautiful, melodious voice a la Whitney Houston or Adele (to randomly name two) they know HOW TO sing. Which makes their horrible voice perfect and the song amazing! So below, I've mentioned a few that fit this category. Hope you agree!
I am constantly on the watch for some new artists that are going to blow me away. I look for them everywhere: commercials, music sites, radio, movies/series, other people's suggestions... You name it, I'm listening. Of course, with a new year starting, my expectations are high, because in my mind, I have one whole year of music waiting for me and that translates to roughly... let's say A LOT of tunes. So far I've not been amazed by as many as I though I would but I found 5 that are on a very good path, not only in my opinion, but the public's as well. Let me introduce to you guys the Top 5: Discoveries (Part I)...
