At first I wondered "Why Amy?". I've never given an inkling that I enjoy her music. But then again I guess thats why he put his songs on it for me. Although her single "Rehab" gets on my nerves way too much (I mean, seriously, just go to rehab. Get help, you obviously need it. Don't make a catchy song about it and make rehab seem like something bad). With "Rehab" getting played out on the radio I was hesitant to listen to the rest of her album. But I was very surprised. I actually like her music and voice. Her lyrics in basically all her other songs, but "Rehab" and "Addicted", are true and emotional, like poetry. I guess I can't judge an artist by their one annoying single. Aside from her being a hot mess in her personal life, she is a good artist. Her voice is beautiful and I love her pin-up doll look. But really Amy, get your ass in rehab.
Atreyu- "Right Side of the Bed
Imagine this: I'm walking serenely by the lake pushing my son's stroller and just finishing the soulful music of Amy Winehouse when suddenly all I hear is screaming. RARARARARA! I don't know how I ever enjoyed Screamo. It was just headache inducing. Needless to say, I wasn't feeling this song too much
Bayside- "Masterpiece"
Although another Emo/Hardcore group, I actually really like this song. Its not as scream-y as Atreyu (really, whats the point of screaming? I cant even understand you.) I love this verse:
You're not 18
Anymore, five years should have been enough time
For you to grow up and get over this...
It's Not too cool
To be throwing up all morning sick
From what you might've done or done it with
I can think of some people that that verse is going to remind me of in due time.
Now I'm getting into the Bs and I have a feeling this is going to take me a while. There are 12 "B" artists and a hefty 543 songs. (543?! WHAT?!) Oh yes, this is going to take a whiiiiiiiile.
