Elliot Yamin - Wait For You
I hate how cheesy the video is but I do agree it is a very well written/produced song. I wasn't a huge Yamin fan during his respective season of idol though. I was a Tay Hicks/Mandisa/Stevie Scott fan (lol) Oh well.

Ashlee Simpson
I always HATE admitting this but yeah I like Ashlee Simpson's music... and I do live in America lol. Her first album was easily one of the best albums in 2004 imho, one of the best pop records within the last few years period. I actually like every song on the Autobiography album, all time favs would have to be "Autobiography" "Better Off" and "Pieces of Me" just a very well produced album in all honesty. I love I Am Me too, my fav. song from that album is easily "L.O.V.E" its short, effective, and I lovelove the arrangement.. even with the guitar riffs. Its just a damn catchy song in my opinion. I am secretly excited to see what November is going to bring for her.

Best/Worst comeback singles/albums of 2007?
I'll just say this. I absolutely hated Hilary Duff's music prior to the "Dignity" album. However after I heard it from start to finish I was like floored. Its a very very veryyyy good album and how it flopped is still beyond me. The production and songwriting (which one of my absolute current favorite songwriters did some writing on this album as well) is very good. That album is very good and I think I could listen to "with love" over and over again without ever getting tired of it. I also love Britney's new track and really think her comeback is going to be great. Jennifer Lopez I haven't made a decision about yet... I heard the newest single and I'm on the fence about it. Mandy Moore is underrated as usual, I don't get how people are STILL under a rock about her. I even prefer her version of "Umbrella" more than Rihanna's funny enough. Best: Hilary Duff (even if sales don't translate it)/Rihanna/Mandy Moore/B.Spears Worst: Kat DeLuna (lollll even thought she is new, but she is very overrated imo)/Kelly Clarkson (personally I have always found her to be overrated and the only track I like from her new album is "Never Again" as daffy as that may sound.

Duran Duran - Falling Down (new single)
Hm, I'm sort of disappointed with this... hopefully the other tracks are better then this.

Working with Timbaland?!
Oh wow... desperate times calling for desperate measures?
-
Thompson Twins
"Lies" will always be my favorite song by them.
-
Narada Michael Walden
Nah I would compare Timbaland to the 1980s/1990s Jimmy Jam/Terry Lewis producing team if we are going to be comparing Timbaland to producers.
-
Absolute Garbage!
Yes sad but true.

Best Pete Waterman - S/A/W - PWL records ever?
Pretty much ANY Mel and Kim record. Early Kylie "I should Be So Lucky" and "Got To Be Certain" in paticular, and all the songs from that album really. "Never Wanna Give You Up" "Take Me To Your Heart" (Rick Astley) "You Spin Me Round (Like a Record) (dead or alive) "More Than Physical" (Bananarama) "You'll never Stop Me From Loving you" (sonia) "I'd Rather Jack" The Reynolds Girls(the lyrics are dumb as idk what but I love the production and arrangement of this) "Love Reaction" (Divine) "This Time I Know its For Real" (Donna Summer) and plenty of others, knowing me I will add them to this list later on.. but you all catch my drift.
-
Absolute Garbage!
Oddly enough I still may buy it but the only song I even remotely like from the track listing is "The World Is Not Enough" really...
-
The Hives - Tick Tick Boom
I love it too, but then I pretty much love anything they do.
-
Narada Michael Walden
love him or hate him he was (I guess I should say is actually) an extremely talented dude. My favorite song that was actually performed by him... is "reach out" anyways, he has written/produced for so many artists though..
-
Retro Soundclash #29
Kate Bush for the win, please and thank you. Now if it was "London Calling" or maybe even "This is Radio Clash" then it might be different... but even then probably not.
-
Actors who believe they can sing
was it? If it was then that's cool... this was news to me though lol
-
Brooke Hogan, Hulk Hogans Daughter
lmao she is by far a much better vocalist than Paris, imo. I love "For A Moment" even if she has vocal limitations, she still sound great with it, love the arrangement of it too. To me its the best track on "Undiscovered" and I do agree that pic of her is skankeriffic (in a bad way lol). I like the other picture of her from the album (well the single).
-
Paris Hilton working on second album
See she just needs Timbaland to produce her stuff... she'll be good then. That dude produces everyone -___-
-
Actors who believe they can sing
Gweneth Paltrow I believe would be a candidate for this imo, her singing voice isn't too awful though.
-
the worst retro acts of all time!
The Reynold Girls should automatically get the number one spot for this because of "I'd Rather Jack". Granted I even love the production that Stock/Aiken/Waterman did with it... still the lyrics alone are just ridiculous lolz. No wonder they were dropped from SAW so fast lmfao, the "choreography" in the video is priceless though hahahaha.

johnny hates jazz
I have the album (on CD), I used to have it on vinyl but anyways... "I Don't Want To Be a Hero" is my favorite song by them.

Retro Soundclash #28
Kate Bush obviously, easily one of the most underrated songs I can think of.

Britney On The Cover Of Allure Magazine
omg that is fierce, I want to look like her again. I almost forgot that she used to be fierce, lol. I'd so borrow her face for a day.

Mandy Moore's Version of 'Umbrella'
Funny how I prefer her version more than Rihanna's lol.
