Magazines to list on my stellacarrier googleplus tumblr and wordpress

First off, I am glad for everyone who takes the time to view my these posts. The following are magazines that are ones that I intend to donate via putting these in the donation box near  Value Village Thrift Store by 145 pm andor sooner. I truthfully was tempted to keep a multiple number of these magazines. However, I knew that something had to give after yesterday morning and it was important that I go with that feeling as I am thankful for the 32 magazines that I have left after donating these-10 are writing related and 4 are fitness related. Still you can understand why I had to at least donate the following magazines today, these are independent from 4 additional magazines that I am donating that I prefer to keep secret/be discreet about for now. However, it is my intent that this list is of some help for some people who glance at it and I wish everyone viewing this a happy day.

Valuable Books I Let Go Friday July 14, 2017

Valuable Books I Let Go Friday July 14, 2017

This link pertaining to Valuable Books I Let Go Friday July 14, 2017 is the updated version of the updated dates that a multiple number of the books were originally ordered for those who are curious.First off,to everyone looking at this list, I feel blessed for anyone who takes the time to look at, even just out of curiosity, some of the topics that interest me. The following is a list of books that either have already went to College Park Maryland bookholders or are headed there today within two and a half hours or less of me sharing this listing with others publicly online. I feel blessed to have had theseInformative and creative books, which is partially why I intend to repurchase all of them in Amazon kindleform within the next 42 months or less from this date Friday July 14, 2017. However, I reluctantly admit that I am letting them go for personal reasons despite the fact that I am highly aware that these books listed are a privilege to have which is why I refrain from elaborating more on personal reasons. However, I already put the dates on some of the books that I have already purchased but for the remainder books, I intend to put the dates either later on today andor tomorrow on my googleplus, tumblr, and wordpress profile for personal reasons and time constraint reasons as I intend to leave out of my apartment to drop them off within the next 20 minutes or sooner of me sharing this post on my facebook account. The last three books listed-Fabulosity by Kimora Lee Simmons, College Prowler George Washington University Off the Record 2012 Edition, and Love Ever After by Joy Mitchell Lisker are books that were easier for me to let go as I have previously purchased in Amazon kindleform and annotated as such. Books that Were Previously Already Dropped Off at College Park, Maryland Bookholders The Essential Guide to Getting Your Book Published: How to Write It, Sell It, and Market It . . .

Verified Purchase

Trumbo-(Movie Tie In Edition by Bruce Cook) touches on various parts of Trumbo’s personal and professional life such as in Chapter Two titled Colorado (starts on page 24) where is discusses Trumbo’s father Orus Trumbo, Trumbo’s family colonial origins in Virginia, West Virginia, and Kentucky as well as how the Trumbo family name actually traced back to Switzerland. Pages 70 and 71 touch on Trumbo being a ghostwriter for an Austrian nobleman living in Hollywood named Baron Friedrich Von Reichenberg and what Dalton was grappling with in terms of bringing in more money for him and his wife and children, while his wife Maud Trumbo was doing the best she could working as a seamstress for Hollywood dressmakers and special jobs for movie actresses such as Norma Talmadge and Constance Bennett.TRUMBO Paperback – September 8, 2015by

Song and Dream Apartment Listing In Addition to A Book Listing of Books That Went to Bookholders in College Park, Maryland on Saturday April 1, 2017

Song and Dream Apartment Listing In Addition to A Book Listing of Books That Went to Bookholders in College Park, Maryland on Saturday April 1, 2017 but I intend to keep as reference to be able to eventually repurchase, when the time is right, in Amazon kindlebook andor Amazon Audible form. Fortunately, I am blessed to have enough in my life with a sweet and handsome husband. However, it was actually a tricky decision for me to let go of the books listed, especially when it came to authors andor subjects of the book who I admire. Yet, I understand that I must do it for practical reasons as well as intuitively guided reasons that I prefer to avoid going into right now. However, one happy reason that I enjoy sharing is to facilitate my husband and I having to travel lighter when it comes to moving into our dream apartment in College Park Maryland andor Greenbelt Maryland (our ideal choice is College Park, Maryland due to the close proximity to our jobs/employment at the University of Maryland College Park). The listing of books that I put a 30 by are especially some of the books that are challenging for me to completely let go but I understand that I can instantly give to Bookholders for potential resale value. Additionally, they are some of the books that I definitely intend to eventually repurchase in Amazon kindle andor Amazon Audible form once I have a secret amount of money saved andor my husband and I are eventually settled into our own home (my husband had an uplifting dream less than 24 hours ago that pertained to he and I living in and having our own home and my supportive mother in law/his mom was coming by to visit to show her encouragement). I also choose to go ahead and list what dates some of the books were purchased on Amazon as a way to help me understand/analyze my thought processes and what was going on in my life at that time (and how this might have indirectly affected my purchasing decisions). I truly believe that keeping track of the dates that I purchased the books is going to help me understand various things within 4-5 years from now or less. Additionally, I actually started this list Saturday April 1, 2017 with the fact that the listed books did go to Bookholders. However, it is today Monday April 3, 2017 where I finally had the chance to post the book listing. Additionally, I had to finish completing the book listing as I left off on The Secret of the Highly Creative Thinker today and resumed typing/documenting the book list with the Astral Codex book. I am definitely not doing this book listing to show off and I’m well aware of some of the public judgment I may attract for doing so. However, I have faith and truly believe that I am going to be glad that I made this book list in the future, additionally what I am doing now in documenting and publicly releasing this book list online (on my googleplus, tumblr, and wordpress blogs)is going to more intuitively and logically make sense to me within 4-5 years or less from now.

2017 Collection of 30 Books I Must Let Go Of Part two as of Saturday February 4, 2017

To all visiting this site who are curious, I admit that I did not want to release/let go of these books

that I obtained from Amazon.com throughout different time periods. The first reasons is because they are a diverse collection of interesting books that I know would be perfect for my freestyle storytelling hobby even though I know that I could also easily go to a public library near me to find a book andor books for freestyle story writing inspiration. Another reason; Many of the books are one of a kind books that are mainly found online and some contain content that is either informative andor allows me to expand my dreams. However, the fact that I had a challenging time even letting these books go is a sign that I am definitely a candidate for needing to continue to organize and make my living environment more clutter free and organized. I would prefer to avoid going into multiple reasons why I am letting go of some of my items right now. However, I admit that I am probably going to take at least 90-120 books to Bookholders in College Park, Maryland by Friday February 10, 2017 or sooner. This list is just the first 30 books that I intend to take to the College Park Bookholders by 7pm Eastern Standard Time or sooner tonight. I must preface my sharing this list by making it clear that my listing when I purchased these books is not meant to show off. Rather, I am keeping track of when I purchased them in order to help me understand what I may have been going through andor what emotions were running through me at the time of these purchases (for greater clarity in understanding myself when it comes to healing certain areas around my money savings goals and other goals etc.). Unless otherwise noted (there is one book that I am going to list as a confession that I got it from the thrift store near my apartment)-I admit to have purchased these items from Amazon with the original intent to keep them for a very long time.

So you want to be a Psychic: The commonsense guide to Psychic Abilities Price: $0.99 Psychic Development Tips, October 23, 2016 Verified Purchase(What's this?)This review is from: So you want to be a Psychic: The commonsense guide to Psychic Abilities (Kindle Edition)This kindlebook of So You Want To Be A Psychic : The Commonsense Guide to Psychic Abilities caught my attention due to my own goals involving accessing my intuition for practical matters. This kindlebook candidly goes into what psychic gossip entails and can do. She also mentions why intent colors the output of psychic impressions regardless of a person’s intuitive level. I also like how she gives a movie reference example on meditation (using the Happy Gilmore movie example). Comment | Permalink A Royal Night Out DVD ~ Sarah Gadon Price: $14.96 36 used & new from $10.66 Royal Theme Rental From a Redbox in College Park, Maryland, October 23, 2016 This review is from: A Royal Night Out (DVD)On a whim, I decided to take a chance on seeing A Royal Night Out and I’m very happy that I did. The film centers around the characters of Princess Elizabeth (Sarah Gadon) and Princess Margaret (Bel Powley) wanting to get outside of the palace for a little while to learn more about the real world around them. They both successfully convince their parents Queen Elizabeth (Emily Watson) and King George VI (Rupert Everett) to allow them in order to get a sense of what the general public thinks of the royal speeches. Along the way, both Elizabeth and Margaret get themselves into various type of “adventures”. Princess Elizabeth also ends up befriending Jack Hodges (Jack Reynor). Princess Margaret ends up getting help from a local man named Stan (Roger Allam) after getting caught up in a situation. I want to say more yet must avoid doing so for others who read these words and want to see the film. However, what I do feel comfortable saying is that one reason why I enjoyed the film is that it put a multi-faceted spin on how even women from a prominent family would want to at least briefly enjoy life in a way that they perceive as ordinary. As a writer, I liked how the movie shows the multiple ways that the characters are connected to each other plotwise (such as when Princess Margaret’s character is shown getting help at a pivotal moment when things could have turned out completely different). One of the bonuses to A Royal Night Movie include The Making of A Royal Night out. The dvd also had some movie trailers to such movies as Mistress of America and Belle. Comment | Permalink Actual Miles: Henley's Greatest Hits Price: $8.99 Dream Inspired Listen From My Amazon Prime Subscription, October 23, 2016 This review is from: Actual Miles: Henley's Greatest Hits (MP3 Music)This classic rock/rock pop music collection of Actual Miles: Henley’s Greatest Miles by Don Henley is a first rate collection of songs. I admit that I decided to take a chance on giving this collection a listen of a dream that I recently had less than 7 days ago (in the dream I was hearing the song All She Wants To Do is Dance while getting showered and dressed in a suite looking hotel room to go to an event in the same upscale hotel). Anyhow, there are the classic well-known songs that I have heard on radio before that are on this collection: Boys of Summer, All She Wants to Do is Dance, New York Minute, The End of the Innocence etc.,. There are other songs on here that I have not heard on the radio yet are still good to listen to as well such as the Not Enough Love in the World song and the Garden of Allah. For some reason from the lense of an aspiring writer, I imagined the Not Enough Love song to encompass a heart-centered person singing about how they see the world and Garden of Allah to symbolize a person who is dreaming of being in the afterlife and conversing with famous people who died and are still remembered in modern times for their contributions. Comment | Permalink Tom Petty and More Price: $0.00 A Solid Music Playlist, October 23, 2016 This review is from: Tom Petty and More (MP3 Music)I decided to give this playlist a listen after hearing the song Free Fallin by Tom Petty in a dream less than 7 days ago. There are also some other original classic rocks songs in this Tom Petty and More Playlist such as Brass in Pocket by the Pretenders, Take it Easy by The Eagles, and more. Comment | Permalink

This review is from: Caddyshack (Amazon Video)

Caddyshack is a comical movie featuring various people who become weaved into the scandalous events of the movie plot. There is the character of Danny Noonan (Michael OKeefe) who gets a job as a caddy to help his college dreams. Noonan at times turns to Ty Webb (Chevy Chase) for both job advice and personal matters. Noonan is also able to turn to Maggie O’Hooligan (Sarah Holcomb) both for encouragement and as a girlfriend. The character of Carl Spackler (Bill Murray) ogles some of the older women at the country club while trying to deal with keeping the golf course gopher free. Lacy Underall (Cindy Morgan) is popular for her beauty and wild reputation. Underall is also a family member of Judge Smails (Ted Knight), an influential member of the Bushwood Country Club. Smails and Al Czervik (Rodney Dangerfield) have different ideas for the future of the country club. Al Czervik’s character is shown as an easy-going persona who likes to invigorate/spice things up around him. Of course, there are other actors/actresses in this movie, and Caddyshack is perfect for multiple people who enjoy light-hearted comedies.

Best Of

Price: $8.99

A Great Listen From My Amazon Music Subscription

, October 21, 2016

This review is from: Best Of (MP3 Music)

The Best of music collection of Hillary Duff caught my attention because of the availability of some of the songs from her Dignity collection on the Best of collection ( I had purchased Dignity from a Florida K-mart around 2006/2007). I also was first exposed to Hillary Duff’s music around 2003/2004 when I was living in California. This is because some of the local radio stations near where I lived as well as Yahoo music would feature her Come Clean and Fly songs (which are on this collection). I also enjoy the With Love song, Reach Out (music tribute to Depeche Mode’s Personal Jesus), Dignity, Wake Up etc.

The Audacity to be a Writer: 50 Inspiring Articles on Writing that Could Change Your Life Price: $4.99 A Mentor in Kindlebook Form, October 8, 2016 Verified Purchase(What's this?)This review is from: The Audacity to be a Writer: 50 Inspiring Articles on Writing that Could Change Your Life (Kindle Edition)This Amazon kindlebook of The Audacity To Be A Writer; 50 Inspiring Articles On Writing That Could Change Your Life by Bryan Hutchinson and Multiple Contributors is an invigorating read whether you are writing with author career goals in mind andor for creative writing therapy. There is helpful advice such as sometimes it is ok to write something that others may question as wise when allowing creativity to come through. There is also healing and helpful tips given on how to encourage your self-confidence to continue towards your writing dreams even when you are criticized. There is also information on how to give effective constructive criticism as well as the explanation on why it is beneficial to aim for writing at least 200-500 words a day. Of course, there are much more informative details in this book to where I only wish that I came across this book sooner this year. However, I feel fortunate/lucky to have obtained this kindlebook because of the treasure trove of writing mentorship throughout the chapters, as well as writing resources to turn to for continued writing/authorship improvement and/or encouragement. Comment | Permalink Bridge of Spies DVD DVD ~ Tom Hanks Price: $14.99 54 used & new from $5.07 Dvd from College Park Maryland Redbox Touches on Bravery, October 8, 2016 This review is from: Bridge of Spies DVD (DVD)This movie Bridge of Spies jumped out at me because it seemed like it would be a perfect film of intense suspense. My premonitions were correct and I unexpectedly became a little more informed during the movie about international relations. Tom Hanks stars as James B. Donovan., a character very much committed to upholding what the U.S. constitution stands for when it comes to his clients. Donovan’s life is turned dramatically upside down when he is assigned the case of Rudolf Abel (Mark Rylance). This is because the character of Donovan is shown going through so much via having his life and that of his family in danger after he does his job of defending Abel (much to the chagrin of some the people who knew Donovan professionally). Despite extreme public condemnation, Donovan successfully fights for Abel with the argument that such a situation may set a precedent in the situation that an American is captured by the USSR. Donovan experiences some redemption from professional criticism of what he advocated for Abel when Francis Powers (Austin Stowell) is captured by the USSR after his aircraft is shot down. Additionally, the film features an American college student named Frederic Pryor (Will Rogers) who was captured by the Eastern Germany police forces. However, Donovan’s work is far from done when this happens. I want to share more details in this review but I understand that I must take into account anyone seeing this who has not yet seen the film. Some of the Bonus Features of the film; a Case of the Cold War Bridge of Spies. Comment | Permalink Revenant, The DVD ~ Paul Anderson Price: $14.96 47 used & new from $4.79 Redbox Rental Touches on Courage/Determination, October 8, 2016 This review is from: Revenant, The (DVD)The Revenant film stars Leonardo DiCaprio as Hugh Glass. The beginning of the film opens with Glass and other men around them fighting for their life. One of the reasons that is given in the movie why such a war broke out relates to one of the daughters named Powaqa (Melaw Nakekho) of an Arikawa leader named Elk Dog (Duane Howard)being kidnapped by someone andor some people affiliated with the French hunters. Hugh Glass, his son Hawk (Forest Goodluck) and other men are able to survive and get away. However, things take a tougher turn for Glass’s character when he is attacked by a grizzly bear and his life is eventually left in the hands of John Fitzgerald (Tom Hardy) and Will Poulter (Jim Bridger). It is tempting to mention more details and characters mentioned in the film yet I must take care to keep details brief for other people who have yet to see Revenant. I also became interested in watching the Revenant after finding out that the author whose book this movie is based on also works a day job. This inspired me because deep down I would like to still maintain a career/job while balancing the dual role of being a writer regardless of how my writing dreams turn out. Comment | Permalink The Hunt for Red October DVD Price: $2.99 Suspenseful Military Plot, October 8, 2016 Verified Purchase(What's this?)This review is from: The Hunt for Red October (Amazon Video)The Hunt For Red October film touches on some tense situations involving submarine plots. The film features Sean Connery as a military officer named Marko Aleksandrovich Ramius who is a Commanding Officer of the Red October submarine. Alec Baldwin features in the film as a man named Jack Ryan who works as a CIA intelligence analyst, an author, and a Professor of Naval History at the United States Naval Academy. Jack Ryan is called on to help the U.S. Navy with the situation involving the submarine commanded by Ramius. Captain Ramius looks forward to bringing his submarine to the United States but has to stay alive and conceal his plan from many of his colleagues before safely reaching the U.S. (in addition to not getting himself or his men killed before he has a chance to explain his plan). Other naval references made in the film involve mention of the USS Enterprise Carrier Battle Group. The film also features an all-star cast because of the inclusion of Sam Neill, James Earl Jones, Jeffrey Jones, Joss Ackland, Tim Curry, Courtney B. Vance, Scott Glenn,Fred Dalton Thompson, and more actors/actresses (featured in The Hunt For Red October). My husband explained to me some of the facets of the Ryan character such as the character similarities to the Jack Reacher film featuring Tom Cruise. Because my husband also introduced me to the Vikings tv show he also recognized and pointed out to me Stellan Skarsgard in the film who has been in Thor and who is also the father of Gustaf Skarsgard (connected with the Vikings television show). Comment | Permalink Encore: Movie Partners Sing Broadway Price: $9.99 Artistic Music Collaborations, October 8, 2016 This review is from: Encore: Movie Partners Sing Broadway (MP3 Music)As an aspiring writer and music lover, I wanted to give this music collection of Encore: Movie Partners Sing Broadway by Barbara Streisand a listen both for creative writing therapy and to help me understand how music ties into story plots (since I enjoy being inspired by songs when it comes to plot ideas). This collection is also great if you are an eclectic music listener because of the cheery vibe of the songs and the strong singing. I actually enjoyed listening to the entire collection of Encore; Movie Partners Sing Broadway by Barbara Streisand, yet I admit that the Broadway take of Pure Imagination on this collection is one meaningful song that resonated in my soul after hearing it multiple times (the song tied into the Willy Wonka film is great as well yet something about the Broadway version on Encore; Movie Partners Sing Broadway by Barbara Streisand stirred my soul).

Redbox Rental From College Park Maryland

, October 1, 2016

This review is from: 13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi (DVD)

I confess that I ended up watching the 13 Hours Movie out of great curiosity after spotting it in the Redbox queue. The film has many heartstring pulling moments and it raises the debate of military spending, providing enough people for overseas campaigns (i.e. the military drawdown debate), and military rules of engagement such as in the film Eye In The Sky. The acting was really strong by more than one of the actors in the film and so I would definitely have to leave the favorites to other reviewers to write and decide. The following are some of the facts mentioned in the film;

On October 2011: U.S., French, and British Forces Attacked Libya by Air. As the Air campaign continued, the Libyan people violently deposed Dictator Muammar Gaddafi after 42 years of tyrannical rule.

The United States had 294 Diplomatic posts worldwide in 2012. Twelve posts were so dangerous that the State Department deemed them Threat Level Critical. Two were in Libya; Tripoli and Benghazi. Warring Militia gangs raided Gaddafi’s massive armories. Violent Turf Wars broke out and Benghazi became one of the most dangerous places on earth. Every foreign embassy closed in that location except a U.S. Diplomatic outpost and a covert C.I.A. base.

I’m being logically/intuitively guided to avoid including more information in this review that was listed in the beginning and end in the film that I wrote down (and to instead save those writings for my personal blogs within 2-4 weeks or less). Anyhow, the locations of Pentagon in Washington D.C. and U.S. Africa Command (Africom) Stuttgart Germany. The timeline of the fighting and the lives affected in the story are also captured in the film.

This review is from: Higher Self Now!: Accelerating Your Spiritual Evolution (Paperback)

The book Higher Self Now by William Buhlman and his wife Susan Buhlman caught my attention via Amazon recommendations and I’m glad to have followed my intuition to get this book. For starters, there is encouragement to use a journal in tracking progress for spiritual enlightenment. There are also various exercises on building a bridge to connect with the higher self such as on page 95. There is also practical information for anyone helping a family member andor friend through what may be a transition with ten steps to take into mind towards a peaceful transition (page 195). I’m aware that William Buhlman and his wife Susan Buhlman mean well when including an abundance of encouraging information in this book. The one caveat that I would like to mention is that on chapter 3 page 24 there is some detailed information on energy attachment and emotions. However, information is left out that some of the negative emotions that a person could feel hides a different life lesson from another person in the process of resolving the same emotion. For instance, I reluctantly admit that I’m getting better at mastering the process of healing my feelings of resentment and revenge that come up as it relates to times that I understand that I need to work on being more assertive and speaking up/being brave at the right times instead of waiting too late andor after the fact. As a result,I agree that it is essential to forgive any people that are tied into my lessons of revenge andor resentment since they relate to on when I could have been braver andor more assertive. However, I feel that it is dangerous to recommend to someone working on revenge/resentment (when this negative emotion is encouraging them to project more courage/bravery) to put out the olive branch with one or more people, even from past professional/career situations unless you know for sure that they would not cause any harm again. This is especially the case to if the issues of feeling revenge andor resentment are a wakeup/awareness signal from within to forgive one or more people from afar but to project your own assertiveness andor self confidence (both in the present andor the future for the next time someone attempts to bully andor abuse their power). I’m influenced by the fact that I read in one of the books that I have (Life on the Causal Planes by Marian Eileen Charlton) that sometimes negative andor positive feelings about someone (whether in a professional/career andor personal life)can actually stem from knowing them in one of your past lives. Additionally, a person must have an open mind that at the same time is open to still looking at other sources of information because he references that a soul incarnating into an earth like heaven risks insuring their eventual reincarnation back on earth (though in William and Susan Buhlman’s defense I have previously read about the unpopular concept of even some spirits in the afterlife/heaven realms not even yet being aware that they would have to reincarnate back on earth in the book Letters From the Afterlife: A Guide to the Other Side by Elsa Baker. I confess that I’m keeping an open mind on the reincarnation notion because I intend to more consciously guide my present and future lifetimes towards being a wiser, more intuitive, and more self-confident spirit regardless of whether it is true about a person being required to reincarnate back on earth or if it is not necessary. Aside from those caveats, Higher Self Now by William and Susan Buhlman is a spiritually encouraging book regardless of whether or not you have the Higher Self Now cd set.

The Magnificent Seven (2016)

DVD

Price: $14.99

A Rousing Adventure

, October 1, 2016

This review is from: The Magnificent Seven (2016) (Amazon Video)

Less than two weeks ago, my husband and I caught the Magnificent Seven movie after I spotted Denzel Washington and Chris Pratt speak of their parts in the movie. I spoke of the movie to my husband and fortunately he agreed that it sounded like a movie that he would want to watch as well. The Magnificent 7 film stars multiple people that tie into the plot of the movie such as: Haley Bennett as Emma Cullen a woman who ends up riding with Teddy Q (Luke Grimes) to enlist the help in handling Bartholomew Bogue (Peter Sarsgaard). Bogue has caused great upheaval in Emma Cullen’s and Teddy Q’s town. Help comes in the form of the seven men; Denzel Washington as Sam Chisolm, Chris Pratt as Josh Faraday,Ethan Hawk as Goodnight Robicheaux, Vincent D’Onofrio as Jack Horne, Byung Hun Lee as Billy Rocks, Manuel Garcia Rulfo as Vazquez, and Martin Sensmeier. There was so much action in the movie as it relates to the men assembling together and much more. One of the things that my husband liked about the Magnificent Seven plots is the humor in multiple scenes of the movie.

This Updated iDGLAX iDG-787W LCD LED Video Multi-media Mini Portable Projector with Free HDMI cable for Home Theater Movie Night Video Games HD Ready projector was gifted to my husband and I by my mother in law. The projector has easy setup and connectivity. As long as you have a decent size wall the resolution and screen image is amazing.

The only caveat is that the brightness is still progressing.

The 2016 festival was held in the Walter E. Washington Convention Center and the general area to purchase many of the books was held in one of the lower areas.

Gourmet Center and Deli$  Specialty Food, Delis, Beer, Wine & Spirits817 King St Alexandria, VA 223147/19/2016I stopped by Gourmet Center and Deli (in Alexandria Virginia) after work about five days ago in order to get some refreshments to hold me over on my way to walking towards the King Street Metro Station. I got a 20 ounce bottle of Arizona Pomegranate Tea, a 1.5 liter of  Deer Park water bottle, and a 32 ounce Orange Gatorade bottle. The drinks quenched my thirst and helped hydrate me during what was both a sunny and hot day.Share review Write an update Edit review Delete review

Mission BBQ$$  Barbeque, Sandwiches5506 Cherrywood Lane Greenbelt, MD 207707/19/2016  Updated reviewThe most recent visit to this Mission BBQ in Greenbelt Maryland place was Saturday July 9th.  My husband and I found our food to still be tasty. We had the six sauces that were available at the table just as the case with our previous visit (Tupelo Honey Heat, Texas Twang etc.).  The mustard and ranch sauces that are by the drink station taste good too. Anyhow my husband went with the black plate special that had pulled turkey, pulled pork, and the brisket with fries, baked beans, and a drink. I decided to try the rib eye steak, mac and cheese, and fries (I admit that I tried the various barbecue sauces with the fries and steak). I ended up going with the fries because the corn on the cob was no longer sold there (one of the employees said it was out of season). The employees that interacted with my husband and I were friendly and our food was received in a timely manner. My husband paid for the meal.Share review Write an update Edit review Delete review6/28/2016  Previous reviewThis past Saturday was the first time that my husband and I ate at this Mission BBQ restaurant… Read more

AmtrakPublic Transportation50 Massachusetts Ave NE Washington, DC 200027/8/2016My husband and I went through the Amtrack in Union Station metro in the Washington D.C. area less than 7 days ago because we were using the Amtrak train station to visit his mother (my mother in law) in Williamsport, Pennsylvania (we had been mutually planning the trip to Williamsport Pennsylvania since early May 2016). The Amtrak train from the Washington D.C. Union Station connected us to the Philadelphia Amtrak station which ultimately connected us to the Harrisburg Pennsylvania Bus Station. We left early Friday morning around 315 a.m. from the Amtrak Union Station. My husband used the self-checkout feature and fortunately one of the Amtrak employees let us know when we where nearing the Philadelphia Amtrak (which was our transfer point to connect to Harrisburg Pennsylvania).  The additional pros; There is wifi on the Amtrak and plug ins to charge the cell phones etc. Additionally, the seats were extremely comfortable. The Amtrak train from this station leaves on time and sometimes early which makes it imperative for a person buying Washington D.C. Union Station tickets to allow themselves to be 10-15 minutes early just in case (my husband paid for our tickets which came out to 440 dollars for both of us).Share review Write an update Edit review Delete review

Lycoming Mall$$  Shopping Centers300 Lycoming Mall Cir Muncy, PA 177567/8/2016My mother in law took my husband and I to the Lycoming Mall (in Muncy Pennsylvania)during our recent visit during the 4th of July weekend and I must say that the inside of the mall is both clean and has a lot of interesting stores. I would probably place the Lycoming mall at a creative cross between the Macarthur Center mall in Norfolk Virginia and the Westfield Montgomery Mall in Bethesda Maryland but with its own unique culture. There is even a pony carousel (similar to what a person would see at a fair or carnival). Some of the other following stores; Gertrude Hawks Chocolate, Books A Million, Kitchen Collection, JC Penney, Sears, Limitless Mobile, Brookside Homes (what appears to be maybe a realtor section store?,), Dairy Queen, Auntie Anne's, American Eagle Outfitters, Friendly's restaurant, Old Navy, The Children's Place, Brennan's Coffee & Deli, Benigna's Creek Vineyard, Macy's etc. I'm elated to admit that my mother in law bought me some clothes (a matching shirt and pant set) from Macy's.Share review Write an update Edit review Delete review

Friendly Restaurants$$  Restaurants300 Lycoming Mall Cir Muncy, PA 177567/8/2016The inside of this Friendly's restaurant (inside the Lycoming Mall of Muncy Pennsylvania) has a decent amount of booths for a number of people to eat inside this restaurant and the background is very colorful. The food was appetizing, the waitress was polite, and both my husband and mother in law seemed to also enjoy their food. My mother in law had the chicken bacon ranch with the loaded seasoned waffle fries (the seasoned waffle fries are delicious and come with a nacho cheese and sour cream topping). My husband had the patty melt and loaded waffle fries, while I had the Honey barbecue and onion straws burger which came with a tasty ranch sauce and I too had the loaded waffle fries. We all had desserts yet I admit that I forgot the exact details of the desserts we all got because it was somewhere around 5-6 days ago and so much spiritually brighter moments were occurring during the visit-However I think that my mother in law chose pistachio icecream, my husband chose the salted caramel icecream shake, I chose the butter crunch icecream with vanilla pound cake pieces. I'm happy to admit that my mother in law paid for and treated us to this meal at the Friendly's restaurant (inside the Lycoming Mall).Share review Write an update Edit review Delete review

AmtrakPublic Transportation2955 Market Street Philadelphia, PA 191047/8/2016My husband and I accessed the Amtrak Philadelphia Station on the morning of Friday July 1, 2016 and the evening of Monday July 4th 2016 as a transfer station point on the way of him visiting his mother (my mother in law) in Williamsport Pennsylvania. Going to there the transfer had to be made in 10 minutes. However, going back to the Washington D.C. area on July 4th our time in the Philadelphia Amtrak station was longer because there was over an hour layover before we headed back to catch the Washington D.C. Union station Amtrak. This Amtrak has a foodcourt (Au Bon Pain, Auntie Anne's etc.) and a magazine/bookstore area which still gives options yet the only caveat is that a person coming from the Amtrak Union station in Washington D.C. will notice that the place is slightly smaller. The Auntie Anne's inside the foodcourt of the Philadelphia Amtrak station was of good quality. I had an almond pretzel with some caramel sauce and lemonade while my husband got some of their pretzel hotdogs. One of the employees even went out of their way to come to the nearby table I was sitting at to politely ask me a question about my order. There was a slight delay of the Amtrak on July 4th at this Amtrak station yet I understand that it probably more had to do with the evening timeframe that my husband and I were heading back to the Washington D.C. area especially because the line of people waiting to leave out of the Philadelphia Amtrak the same timeframe and train as my husband and I consisted of many people. My husband even talked to someone who was scheduled to do some work with the Smithsonian. The seating in the Amtrak station is ok and the only caveat is that there was obviously only a very short time to get downstairs to reach the train once it did arrive after the slight approximately ten minute delay (give or take a few minutes).Share review Write an update Edit review Delete review

Wegmans$$  Grocery, Drugstores201 William St Williamsport, PA 177017/8/2016My mother in law took me to this Wegman's Food Pharmacy store because I admitted to both her and my husband that this was one of my favorite grocery stores from the last time my husband and I visited her.  This Wegman's Food Pharmacy store is nicely laid out with a variety of grocery items in the store and the checkout service was pretty quick. I confess and I'm glad to say that my mother in law bought the following items for us that helped hold my husband and I over for a few hours on our trip back to the Washington D.C. area; bottles of water, smoked mozzarella,bacon & chive cheese spread, baguette bread slices, cherriesShare review Write an update Edit review Delete review

Weis MarketsGrocery, Drugstores305 River Ave Williamsport, PA 177017/8/2016I am happy to admit that I found out about the Weis Markets grocery store in Williamsport Pennsylvania because my mother in law went grocery shopping here and got my husband and I some treats to eat (during one of days that my husband and I came to visit her this past weekend). The store has a welcoming feel and has a variety of food and drink items within the store. The Weis Markets grocery store reminds me a little like the Shopper's Grocery store in College Park Maryland (yet I understand that each grocery store has its own culture and food product layout). Among some of the items that my mother in law purchased for my husband and I during the trip; Smores flavored hanover pretzels, Friendly's icecream (I chose a miniature sized brownie cake type flavor), Kraft marshmallows to make for smores,five Snapple drinks consisting of flavors such as lemon tea, peach tea, kiwi strawberry, some cherries, onions,corn on the cob,Share review Write an update Edit review Delete review

Sardis Pollo A La Brasa$$  Peruvian, Salad, Sandwiches1159 University Blvd E Takoma Park, MD 209127/8/2016  Updated reviewMy husband and I originally ate at the Sardis Pollo A La Brasa in May 2015 and had a positive experience from eating there. Naturally, my husband and I mutually agreed to try food from this place again through the online grubhub delivery service in our area. The pros; Our food came within their calculated timeframe and both my husband and I liked our food; my husband chose the world famous souvlaki that comes with skewered chicken, greek salad, rice, pita bread and tzatziki sauce. I chose and shared with my husband the ultimate mixed grill that comes with chorizo sausage, shrimp, and carne asada steak. Additionally, the sauces that come with the food liven the order up; spicy vinagretta, salsa roja, salsa amarilla, and salsa verde (I enjoy the salsa verde sauce out of all the sauces from this restaurant). The sides I choose were French Yucca and their vegetable of the day, which brings me to the one caveat. I should have called the restaurant ahead of time to find out what the vegetable of the day was because the vegetable of the day was simply a corn, carrot, and green bean medley that could be found in the canned food section of the grocery aisle or frozen vegetables in the frozen food section. Aside from that caveat, the rest of the food came out fine and I'm happy to share that my husband was the one who paid for this food.People thought your review was:Share review Write an update Edit review Delete review5/28/2015  Previous reviewSardis Pollo a la Brasa was one of the places where I convinced my husband to give it a try.

Blaze Fast-Fire’d Pizza$  Pizza, Gluten-Free, Salad7419 Baltimore Ave College Park, MD 207407/8/2016  Updated reviewMy husband and I keep coming back to this Blaze fried Pizza location in College Park Maryland from time to time because we get an abundant amount of delicious pizza at a reasonable price. However, because of it's tastiness it is too easy to eat the whole pizza if you are not careful (however I at just part of my pizza during the last visit and saved the other half for the next day in one of their to go boxes). We both liked our food and had our orders processed by friendly workers. My husband chose the meat lovers pizza (pepperoni, meatballs, red onion, mozzarella, red sauce)while I chose the Veg out pizza (zucchini, mushrooms, red onion, mozzarella, gorgonzola, red sauce). The drinks are also of a decent variety (lemonade, blood orange).  My husband paid for this order on our recent visit which came out to 23 dollars and 74 cents.

College Park Aviation MuseumMuseums1985 Corporal Frank Scott Dr College Park, MD 207408/19/2016My husband and I recently visited this College Park Aviation Museum (near the College Park/University of Maryland metro train station) just this week (this past Wednesday). I admit that I had been stationed on at least two aviation type of commands ( an Aviation Support detachment and a Helicopter Squadron) during my time in the navy and I still learned a lot from my most recent museum visit and would still come back again to the College Park Aviation Museum in the future. I paid ten dollars for admission for both my husband and I (5 dollars each person). Some of the following sights that my husband and I had seen inside this museum a couple of days ago:1) info on Kitty Hawk, North Carolina as well as the exhibit of Lt. Henry "Hap" Arnold 2) Curtis Model D Pusher purchased in March 1911 by the U.S. Army 3)Diorama depicting Signal Corps Aviation School Era (1911-1913) of the College Park Airfield 4) Bernetta Miller who is the fifth woman to become a licensed pilot in America and whose license is listed to be FAI license #173 5) Footage of the first Airmail service flight taking off from Potomac Airfield in Washington D.C. on May 15, 1918 6) Exhibit of Douglas Fairbanks, a daredevil film star who came to College Park, Maryland who stamped himself as airmail on October 16, 1918 and sent himself to New York which came out to a cost of $414.72. 7)Exhibit of two Aviation men; Edgar Gorrell and John Hambleton 8) Peace Cross Memorial Exhibit where a mother of deceased aviator William Redman spoke at the memorial ceremony 9) Gnome 7 Omega Replica exhibit 10) There is a Taylor J-2 Cub Exhibit from 1936 which is listed to be one of the popular airplanes. It is also listed that George Brinckerhoff used Cubs for flight intro school during his 30 year aviation career.Share review Write an update Edit review Delete review

Subway$  Sandwiches, Fast Food7411 Baltimore Ave College Park, MD 207408/19/2016I preface this review, not to undermine paid andor professional reviews but to make it clear that I'm an amateur review who enjoys writing but is writing as someone who paid for this out of my own pocket and is not affiliated in any friendship,romantic relationship, andor related to anyone at this Subway. My husband and I have been going to this Subway in College Park, Maryland since at least 2011. Two of the reasons why we return to eating at this Subway from time to time is due to the affordability, good taste, and the friendliness of the people who take our orders in past visits (including our recent visit). Our most recent visit was this week which had my husband getting a foot long sandwich that was on sale with a drink and I had a 6 inch Spicy Italian with the following toppings: Subway Vinaigrette provolone cheese pepperjack cheese onions black olives tomatoes pickles, red pepper, parmesan, oregano. The bread was the Italian herbs and cheese bread. I also bought an oatmeal raisin cookie, a cheesecake and raspberry flavored cookie, and some Lay's Brazilian Picanha chips that were steak chimichurri sauce flavored. I admit that I do enjoy the fact that they allow us to pour our own drinks due to the fact that some restaurants do but others do not depending obviously on the restaurant chain and other factors. I say this because I was able to have some cherry coke but also some Fruze honey tea.Share review Write an update Edit review Delete review

There were many people lined up to get something from this location and I was curious to stop by and try something. I ordered a small size strawberry custard with two toppings and a cherry topping. I also liked that the strawberry frozen custard was affordable.

The 2 cashiers that were upfront at the register were patient and polite with both any questions I had pertaining to the Sacred Circle store and when I bought a book from them: a paperback orangish/reddish book (published in 2010) titled How To Read The Akashic Records by Linda Howe. I completely understand that they too are a business that is influenced by profits. However, the only caveat was that there were only a selected number of books on sale that were discounted from the full price.Share review Write an update Edit review Delete review

Bruegger’s Bagels$  Sandwiches, Bagels, Breakfast & Brunch606 King Street Alexandria, VA 223148/19/2016Around 21 days ago was when I stopped by this Bruegger's Bagels in Alexandria Virginia to try some of their various flavored bagels and cream cheese. The positives; The people were handling my order were courteous and I ended up buying some bagels and Bruegger's Bagels Honey Walnut cream cheese that turned out to be delicious (cinnamon sugar, rosemary olive oil, blueberry among some others that I purchased). The leftover Honey Walnut cream cheese still tastes fine to this day but the only caveat is that a customer may only want to purchase the number of bagels that could be easily consumed within 12-16 hours if even that (the leftover ones that I purchased were rock hard by the around the third day that I had them). I obviously would buy from Bruegger's bagels again but I would obviously only buy what my husband and I can consume within the first 12 hours andor what I can share with others.Share review Write an update Edit review Delete reviewComment from Zach T. of Bruegger's Bagels Business Owner8/19/2016  Stella, Thanks for sharing a review on our Old Town bakery.

I got 2 for 3 dollar deal for 28 ounce Gatorade bottles (one flavor was for Glacier Cherry Gatorade and the other flavor was for Strawberry Lemonade Gatorade). I also got a Reese's Pieces peanut butter cup for my husband. There was also a buy 3 get 1 free sale of the Nestle Girl Scouts candy bars (I obtained 2 caramel coconut flavored ones for my husband and 2 girl scout thin mint for myself).

King Street - Old Town Metro StationTrain Stations1900 King St Alexandria, VA 223017/19/2016I admit that I have already accessed the King Street Metro station (in Alexandria Virginia) more than once for work (I can actually walk to work from this station if I leave early enough before the beginning of my shift). The buses are very easy to find from this station and the most recent bus that I accessed at this station (around 3 days ago) was one of the Dash Buses that took me pretty close to my job that I think was Dash Bus 5 going towards Braddock metro (Dash Bus 2 goes towards Braddock Road Metro, Dash Bus 5 goes towards Braddock Road metro, and Dash Bus 8 towards Old Town etc.). There is also the King Street Trolley towards Waterfront that leaves from this metro station. However, the other pro to this station is that it is within close proximity to various eateries and a CVS.People thought your review was:

This review is from: Stella in Heaven (Paperback)

I preface this review by making it clear that my interest in heaven-related media is independent from the fact that I’m blessed with great physical health and I intend to live until at least the year 2065 in my current lifetime or longer (but I understand that death is one of the few areas that a person may not have a say in when they die). Anyhow, I also consulted with my amazing husband before getting this book and he had a feeling that this book would interest me. Additionally, as an aspiring writer, this book helps give me added insight into how to write afterlife related stories as an author. This book Stella In Heaven by Art Buchwald is about a woman named Stella Folger who sets out to connect her husband to a new wife after she dies before him. Stella Folger does this from her new home in heaven and she also uses one of her wishes to contact him. The good; the author tells the truth about how the dynamic of Stella Folgers dying before her husband affected them both. Additionally, details are drawn between the backgrounds that Stella Folgers and her husband Roger Folgers came from. The caveats; I may be slightly biased because I’m blessed to have a mother-in-law who treats me as family and accepts me as a daughter in law but the writing leaves scant details on what maybe would help Stella Folgers and her mother in law Mimi get along better/at least be a little more civil to each other. Stella Folgers, although a self-confident and good wife when she was alive, is even a little guilty of acting standoffish and snobbish in how she treats her mother-in-law even in death (I want to explain more in detail about that yet I understand that others looking at this review may want to buy the book and still purchase the story). The other caveat; Some people may like the ending but I only wish that there could have been a follow-up book written to share how Stella Folgers goes on in heaven after the first book and I do believe that even if a person dies way before their spouse that there are spiritually enriching activities andor happy possibilities in their afterlife that can exist. However, I admit that this book, although fictional did inspire me to avoid trying to play matchmaker to my husband unless he prays for me to do so in the possibility that I die before him and leave him as a widower with multiple years still ahead of him on earth.

This review is from: Find Me In Heaven (Kindle Edition)

This Find Me In Heaven kindlebook by Kris Johnston interested me as an aspiring writer because of the topic involving a heavenly afterlife. I feel a calling to write some stories with heavenly worlds as a theme regardless of how worthy I’m judged by others on my qualifications for doing so. Anyhow, the character of Violet has a great job in California and her life is unexpectedly turned upside down when she begins communications with a successful Pennsylvania businessman. One must have an open mind because of the unique but richly riveting detail of the afterlife worlds featured such as with the houses and a Defending Your Life movie type of vibe with Violet trying one of her favorite foods in heaven. The story also touches on positive themes of celestial spirit helpers. Additionally, I’m glad to have got this kindlebook for free due to the fact that it was actually free when I came across discovering it.

This review is from: The Confessions Tour - Live from London (CD+DVD) (Audio CD)

It was an easy decision for me to take a chance on the Confessions Tour-Live From London (CD+DVD) by Madonna because my husband has originally purchased Madonna’s Confessions on the Dancefloor cd for me around the 2006/2007 timeframe. This dvd/cd set of the Confessions Tour-Live From London is even better than I expected because the cd has a medley of thrilling songs for the cd such as the motivational Jump, the daring Erotica, and the cheery Lucky Star concert versions of these songs, along with more songs on this 13 song collection. The live concert dvd has some of her underrated songs such as Like It or Not and Let It Will Be, a superb collection of 21 songs on the dvd (Jump and Ray of Light are among some of the concert performances that I enjoyed on this collection). I also like the bonuses included with the dvd such as the rollerskating and photogallery bonuses and that fact that this concert includes a performance where Madonna gives unadulterated and musically brave performances in the live concert of the Confessions Tour-Live From London.

I decided to take a chance on purchasing and listening to this upbeat collection that is Winner by the Pet Shop Boys after hearing and enjoying “A Certain Je Ne Sais Quoi” via iheartradio. The songs are both original and pleasant to listen to especially with The Way Through The Woods (long version) being a calming melody that could easily be played on an online electronica andor chillout type of radio station. I also like that the collection ended on a tricky to pin down yet musically pleasant vibe with “I Started A Joke.”

I got this movie from a Redbox Rental Near Where I Live

, August 17, 2016

This review is from: Eye in the Sky (DVD)

This film Eye In The Sky starring Helen Mirren as Colonel Katherine Powell, Alan Rickman as Lieutenant General Frank Benson and other actors/actresses involved in the film in a plot involving catching the people responsible for undercover British/Kenyan agent being killed. I noticed that Barkhad Abdi (from the Captain Phillips movie starring Tom Hanks) is in the Eye In The Sky film as well in an important role that I prefer to avoid discussing out of consideration for those who have yet to see the movie. Anyhow, the character of Powell ends up trying to coordinate authorization with Benson for a legitimate action in a timely manner with 2nd lieutenant Steve Watts (Aaron Paul) and A1C Carrie Gershon (Phoebe Fox). However, one of the major obstacles to timely defense comes up when various parties (played by Iain Glen,Monica Dolan, and more people etc.) cannot agree on when andor if to attack. Part of the controversy relates to the scenario of a little girl Alia (Aisha Takow) being affected by whatever is decided. Some of the bonus features included in the dvd are titled Perspectives and Morals. Eye In The Sky deals with the controversial debate involving military rules of engagement.

Don't Go Near The Water (Remastered)

Price: $17.99

from $12.00

A Classic Comedy Film

, August 17, 2016

This review is from: Don't Go Near The Water (Remastered) (DVD)

I admit that the movie of Don’t Go Near The Water caught my attention after I saw some details involving what the plot would be like and the fact that there was a novel written by William Brinkley of Don’t Go Near The Water that this movie is based on. The beginning of the film foreshadows the sense of light-hearted and carefree humor that this movie will have when the following quote is listed; A Great Naval Commander Once Said, Don’t Give Up Our Ship, The Sailors In Our Story Aren’t Worried By This, They Have No Ships To Give Up and They Don’t Go Near The Water.” In charge of the command is the character of a public relations officer by the name of Lieutenant Commander Clinton T. Nash. Lieutenant Max Siegel (Glenn Ford) is one of the leaders over the other military personnel stationed at a public relations command that is a seemingly quiet island (by military standards). Siegel falls in love with one of the local schoolteachers on the island named Melora Alba (played by Gia Scala). Siegel also ends up mentoring but being careful to also to toe the line of his professional duties (metaphorically speaking). This happens when Adam Garrett (Earl Holliman) plays an important role (in terms of plot development) when he confides in Siegel as well asking for his advice/help in how to handle the fact that he (Garrett) is madly in love with Lieutenant J.G. Alice Tomlen (Anne Francis). One of the funniest scenes that had me laughing so hard was the acting where Nash tried to get public relations military personal to do construction work that is actually meant to be done by trained navy construction personnel (a.k.a the Seabees). Of course, there are more actors and actresses in Don’t Go Near The Water yet I must avoid saying too much more out of consideration for other people who still want to see Don’t Go Near The Water. However, what I did find interesting is seeing online the details that life eventually imitated art for Glenn Ford when he became a public relations officer for the navy reserve some time after the movie was made and Earl Holliman is listed to have also done some time in the U.S. Navy (except previously before the filming). Of course, I would also gladly watch Don’t Go Near The Water again.

A Hologram for the King movie starring Tom Hanks as Alan Clay tells the story of a man who moves abroad to start all over after great change in both his personal and professional life. The beginning of the film even somewhat paints a picture of what previously happened to Alan Clay’s life through the song Once In A Lifetime by the Talking Heads. There are more pop culture references such as when one of the cab drivers plays the happy love song You’re The Inspiration by Chicago. There is also some club music played at a party he was invited to from a work colleague from Denmark. Alan Clay also wants to help his daughter pay for college and wants to parlay his business deal into using part of his financial proceeds to do so. Some of the bonus features to A Hologram For The King movie dvd: The Making of A Hologram For The King, From Novel to Screen: The Adaptation of A Hologram For The King, Perfecting the Culture, Also From Lionsgate.

I Discovered This Cartoon From Redbox

, August 17, 2016

This review is from: Tom and Jerry Back to Oz (DVD)

The movie Tom and Jerry Back to Oz deals with the characters of both Tom and Jerry going back to the land of Oz with Dorothy shortly after a visit from some of residents from the Land of Oz. Much is at stake because one of the businessman threatening to take a great deal of what Dorothy’s family owns makes a significant amount of money from his cooking (he mentions about making a great deal of money selling a certain fruit flavored barbecue food). Additionally, Tom, Jerry, Dorothy, and the rest of the group end up going to a state fair held in Kansas in order to get vital help from the Wizard who is revered in the Land of Oz. Having the chance to watch the cartoon also helps give me ideas for plot points involving family stories that are turned into movies (I intend to write some books for adults and some separate stories for children under different pennames that are completely different from my current names and other names that I have held in my current lifetime).

Nothing But the Beat 2.0 [Explicit]

This review is from: Nothing But the Beat 2.0 [Explicit] (MP3 Music)

I’m so glad that this compilation of Nothing But The Beat 2.0 by David Guetta is available from Amazon Prime because I purchased Nothing But The Beat back in 2011 and was thrilled to hear some great music additions to this collection as part of my Amazon prime membership. If you like various songs from the 2011 version of Nothing But The Beat such as Little Bad Girl feat. Taio Cruz & Ludacris, Turn Me On feat. Nicki Minaj, I Can Only Imagine (feat. Lil Wayne, Chris Brown), Crank It Up feat. Akon, Titanium feat. Sia etc. then you may also like Nothing But The Beat 2.0. This is because Nothing But The Beat 2.0 has upbeat club hits in the same musically energetic spirit as the 2011 version with such songs as Play Hard (feat. Neyo & Akon), Every Chance We Get We Run (feat. Tegan & Sara), Metropolis feat. Nicky Romero etc.

There are other great songs on this collection such as Romeo (feat. Kele Le Roc), Where’s Your Heat At (there is a crazy video of the song that is viewable online). Good Luck feat.

Writing Fantasy: The Top 100 Best Strategies For Writing Fantasy Stories (Epic Fantasy Fiction Adventure Story & Book Writing)

I’m happy to admit that I obtained this kindlebook of Writing Fantasy: The Top 100 Best Strategies For Writing Fantasy Stories by Blaine Hart from the Amazon kindle unlimited program. My mother-in-law recently generously gifted my husband and I with a 2 year Amazon Kindle Unlimited membership and this was one of the books I chose for the kindle unlimited membership. Some of the positives; there is explanation of defining a writing goal such as involving writing a series of stories, giving oneself a due date, the benefits of writing each day even if it is a little bit of free writing, reminding yourself to go over your whys in writing for extra encouragement especially when you may be judged for bravely sharing your writing, physical exercise as a motivational tool for writing (I admit that this has been helping me a great deal especially for my creativity),finding your niche audience, and much more.

Intuition [feat. Engelina]

Price: $0.99

Intuition Anthem

, August 17, 2016

This review is from: Intuition [feat. Engelina] (MP3 Music)

I have originally purchased the Intuition compilation by DJ Encore back in June 5, 2007 and found multiple songs on the collection to be enjoyable. I admit that the song Intuition resonated with me more and more after 2009 when I started undergoing many changes which I acknowledge that I’m responsible for. Anyhow, listening to Intuition by DJ Encore reminds me to also consider my own feelings and intuitive hunches in situations. My soul craves helpful information, even if from critics, that is unbiased advice. From my perspective, my intuition helps me to listen to advice from both my supporters and critics that is both unbiased and helps me sort out the information that is better than what I can come up with from speculative information that applies to someone else. The singing and vocals bring alive the theme of Intuition by DJ Encore.

This review is from: Discover Your Soul’s Path Through the Akashic Records: Taking Your Life from Ordinary to ExtraOrdinary (Paperback)

Finding out about this book Discover Your Soul’s Path Through The Akashic Records; Taking Your Life From Ordinary to Extraordinary by Linda Howe is a spiritual blessing to me. For one thing, I have to properly credit this author for providing the material that helped inspired me for some of the freestyle writings that I have wrote on my blogs and some that I have even posted on Linkedin back in late 2015/early 2016. Additionally, I’m a heart-centered woman who prefers to see the good in others and is in the process of improving her self-confidence while striking a careful balance between assertiveness and aggressiveness. This book is healing to me because it helps remind me to see the beauty and unlimited potential in myself and others and that even I have a purpose for being here during my current lifetime. Some of the helpful/healing themes in this book; The Lords, masters, and teachers of the Akashic Records who a person can call on when they are accessing their own akashic records (pages 30-31), considering a discipline in alignment with your true heart’s desire and will (page 99), balancing the triangle as a conscious manifestation in action practice (pertaining to chapter nine pages 139-151).

I Spotted This Relaxer at the Family Dollar Store

, August 16, 2016

This review is from: Ultra Sheen Supreme Relaxer Value-Pack Super #100066 (Misc.)

As an Amateur reviewer/writer (and not out to undermine paid writers/reviewers), I must make it clear that I purchased the Ultra Sheen Supreme Relaxer Value Pack (Super Version) from my local Family Dollar Store out of my own financial/money pocket (just with a different beauty model pictured) because the 2 relaxer kit was only 6 dollars and 50 cents (basically $3.25 per super version of the relaxer kit). The kit comes with user friendly directions, spatula,gloves, dual purpose hair shampoo, styling and setting lotion which I confess to not using but I might use tomorrow in conjunction with another hair product, gloves, crème relaxer bottles A, and liquid activator bottles B. The positives; The relaxer did a great job with straightening my hair at the bargain price that I paid. The caveats: while affordable this double relaxer kit did not come with hair conditioners and the shampoo amount was not nearly enough for the amount of thick and long hair that I’m blessed with (other people reading this with long andor thick hair may also want to buy additional shampoo, conditioners, and hair moisturizers in conjunction with the Ultra Sheen Relaxer kits that they buy). To say that it was a good thing that I had already bought some Aussie Moist conditioner, V05 Lime Shampoo, and Softee brand Extra Virgin Olive Oil conditioner is an understatement. Aside from that Caveat, I’m still glad that I purchased the Ultra Sheen Supreme Relaxer Kit but I would obviously continue to also purchase additional shampoo, conditioner, and hair moisturizer to be on the safe side. Last, but not least, please understand that as a woman who previously wore naturally curly hair from the summer of 2003 until the spring 2012 I understand that beauty comes in all hair lengths, colors, and sizes and that naturally curly hair is actually pretty trendy and fashionable right now among celebrities and models. However, I prefer to wear my hair straightened to save both time and money especially as I’m happily busier nowadays with both my employment endeavors and fitness/exercise endeavors.

Anyhow, what I enjoyed about this Aussie Moist Conditioner is the amount of product in the bottle came out to an affordable price and it moisturized my hair when I urgently needed a product to condition my hair after recently relaxing it (however this conditioner is perfect for both natural hair and chemically relaxed hair). Additionally, this Aussie Moist conditioner has a pleasant scent and is listed to contain jojoba seed oil that helps to moisturize the hair. I confess that I used this conditioner with another type of brand shampoo to help me save some money which was: Alberto VO5 Herbal Escapes Kiwi Lime Squeeze Clarifying Shampoo, 15 Ounce.

I enjoyed some leftover barbecue meat from a few days ago that tasted almost as good as on the first day because of this sauce.

This review is from: Sleeping in the Nothing (Audio CD)

This music cd of Sleeping In The Nothing by Kelly Osbourne has an early 2000’s danceclub vibe to it with subtle hints of Indie dance music. I also remember remember listening to One Word from Yahoo music some time back and my husband even hummed to One Word before. Osbourne also touches on shocking/sensitive themes on this cd such as with the song Don’t Touch Me While I’m Sleeping.

This review is from: The Last Ship: A Novel (Paperback)

I admit that I only found out about this book after being introduced to the Last Ship Television TNT series via Entertainment Weekly magazine (back in June 2014).I was in the navy for 8.5 years and naturally I understand that this Last Ship; A Novel book by William Brinkley is obviously different from how the military works in real life (and I also understand that other people who have been in the military andor are still in are going to have different takes on both the tv show the Last Ship and this book). However, this book The Last Ship touches on areas/interests of navy life that are likely to occur. For instance, the narrator pretty much paints a picture of how many of the sailors have music interests as anyone else does: details are included how music tapes from Beethoven, Mozart, Bach, Handel’s Messiah, rock, country, jazz, folk,The Beatles, Woody Guthrie, Madonna, Bruce Springsteen, Whitney Houston etc. A person is going to have to obviously not mind the time period because the narrator does mention music tapes, movie video cassettes, typewriter ribbons etc. Additionally, the time period that the book was written has to be considered because the narrator mentions notifying a character of Signalman Bixby to blinker the message (page 207, multiple online confirm the Signalman rating to have been discontinued).

Sarah Brightman Classics

, January 14, 2011

This review is from: The Very Best of Sarah Brightman: 1990-2000 (Audio CD)

I remember first being exposed to the wonderful music of Sarah Brightman when I first heard her songs "Deliver Me", "Eden", and "Beautiful". I wish that I can tell you for sure which song that I heard first, but what I can tell you for certain is that hearing those three songs enough times inspired me to purchase one of her greatest hits compilation. I chose this one because of the positive reviews and the diverse song selection that it has. I am glad that I went with doing that because all of the songs are very good. The songs that I must definitely recommend listening to first on this cd are "a question of honor part 2", "heaven is here", "only an ocean away", "eden", "deliver me,", and "scarborough fair". I only wish that "Beautiful" would have been included in this collection. My overall favorite song in Sarah Brightman's greatest hits collection would certainly have to be "Deliver Me". "Deliver Me" is a beautiful and joyful song that talks about how someone has isolated themselves from the outside world their whole life and kept their emotional guard completely up and closed until they encountered a person that they felt safe to reveal their true self too. In addition, I like how Sarah pours her emotion and spirit into the song. Overall Sarah's gorgeous vocals, and the beautiful songs on this cd both add up to a creative and terrific combination. It is definitely gently suggested to consider this cd if any and/or all of the following apply to you: you enjoy music by Enya, Enigma, and/or Celtic/New Age music imported from Europe.

This review is from: Pure Moods, Vol. III (Audio CD)

This third installment of the Pure Moods series definitely puts you in a relaxing, satisfying, and joyful mood. What is wonderful about this compilation is that there are various songs to appeal to what type of positive mood that you want to create for yourself. If you want cheery and joyful the best song for that would be "Only If" by Enya. If you are looking to rest and relax "Merry Christmas,Mr. Lawrence" by Ryuichi Sakamoto and "Silk Road" by Kitaro are both uplifting and are songs to help ease the mind. Songs to listen to for self-reflection and/or if you are evaluating where you are at in your life would be "Life In Mono" by Mono and "Games Without Frontiers"(Massive/DB Mix) by Peter Gabriel. Musical tracks to listen to for love, makeout sessions, and/or romance would be "Gravity of Love" by Enigma and "Deliver Me" by Sarah Brightman. Sixteen eclectic and one of a kind musical tracks are included in this collection. It was hard to narrow down to just one favorite because "Deliver Me" by Sarah Brightman was so enjoyable that I eventually bought one of her greatest hits collection. "Gravity of Love" by Enigma is a beautiful song about how love can enhance all areas of your life. For this collection, I would have to say that "Gravity of Love" is my personal overall favorite song, and a musical track that countless others are going to love. However, the other fifteen tracks are definitely worth multiple listens as well. This pure moods installment is worth obtaining if you appreciate listening to celtic/new age music and/or world music compilations that feature various musical artists.

This review is from: Greatest Hits (Audio CD)

Like many of the reviewers here, I too was fortunate to first be exposed to the Foo Fighters music back in the 90's when they made their debut. This cd has an excellent selection of their hits from the 90s time period leading all the way up to the millenium years such as the smash hit "All My Life" from 2002. All 16 songs were actually great quality hits. In my humble opinion, the band really thought of their fans when they selected the songs to go on this compilation. My personal favorite songs out of this compilation were "All My Life", "Everlong", "Learning to Fly", "Big Me", "This is a Call", "My Hero", and "The Pretender". My overall favorite song is definitely "Learning to Fly" because it is a song about having the determination for learning to soar above any obstacles towards your dreams regardless of external circumstances. Many who enjoy rock music from the 1990's and the 2000's are going to enjoy this greatest hits compilation by the Foo Fighters.

Fire Woman

A Fiery and Addictive Song

, January 13, 2011

This review is from: Fire Woman (MP3 Music)

I remember first hearing "Fire Woman" back in 2000 when I was stationed in Japan through the navy. This song captivated me when I first heard it, and I still enjoy it to this day. I only wish that I had heard it sooner. I had the chance to recently see the video to this song, and this too was enjoyable to watch because it was easy to see that the lead singer really put forth his heart, soul, and strong emotions into the song. The meaning that I get from the song is that he is singing about a woman that has left a memorable impact on him, and that she is to blame for the fact that he frequently thinks about her. To me "Firewoman" seems to symbolize someone who is fiery, exciting, intense, and passionate to him, and he is in turn enthralled by her. I got the feeling to this during the part of the song where he says that he can feel her, and that she is coming close to him. I enjoy this song so much, that it has definitely piqued my interest to get the cd that has this track. This song is worthwhile to own if you enjoy rock music.

Rock You Like A Hurricane (Live/1984)

A Great Rock Song

, January 13, 2011

This review is from: Rock You Like A Hurricane (Live/1984) (MP3 Music)

I too agree that this song is definitely a classic. This song is basically about someone who is planning on giving a very memorable experience related to sex (hence the term rock you like a hurricane). However,the lyrics are done in a very original and coherent manner, and the guitar riffs blend well with the song's lyrics. The video to this song is very edgy and seems to show some self-confident women who are ready to face whatever awaits them. Cages are used in the video for what appears to metaphorically symbolize the women being set free to be as wild as they want. This is a very energetic rock song to listen to at either parties or when you want to listen to something to increase your energy levels.

Good Sylver Hits

, January 11, 2011

This review is from: Best Of-The Hit Collection (Audio CD)

This is a very great dance music collection from a duo that hails from Belgium. This compilation includes some very upbeat tracks that definitely get your energy going. The tracks that stand out in a good way for me are "Make it" and "The One". I love both of these songs so much that it is challenging to tell which one is more of my favorite. "Make It" is a good song that sends a message of staying happy and making the best of whatever is presented to you regardless of external circumstances. "The One" is a good song about someone that has so much love and passion to offer their love interest and they seem to want to know if they are their type. This is a good cd to listen to when you are doing tasks around the house and/or some type of excercise such as walking or running. This collection is also worthwhile to get if you are open to obtaining "best of" compilations from the dance, trance, and/or electronia music genres.

A Great Assortment of Paul Van Dyk's Hits

, January 11, 2011

This review is from: Volume (Audio CD)

This compilation of some of the fun hits by Paul Van Dyk are very good. This compilation contains 24 enjoyable and unique eurodance songs that were assembled with care. I love how he brilliantly started the cd collection with the very upbeat "For An Angel"(PVD Remix 2009), and ended the first cd with "Time of Our Lives" (US Radio Edit). Paul also did a very good job with the way that he ended the second cd by starting cd two with "What Goes Around"(PVD Club Mix) by Justin Timberlake, and he ended it with "Gimme More"(also a strong club mix by Paul himself) by Britney Spears. For the second cd I have to say it was cleverly organized (with the songs that started and ended cd two) because both are good songs, and they are buy two musicians that were once boyfriend and girlfriend (as many people already know Britney and Justin use to date each other). I love the "Magical Moment" song and "Love Simulation" by Humate. My overall favorite song contained in this cd is "White Lies" by Paul Van Dyk featuring Jessica Sutta (many know her from her time with the Pussycat Dolls). The "White Lies" track and the musical collaboration between Paul and Jessica in this song created excellent musical harmony. The video to "White Lies" is great to watch. I feel that Jessica did a fantastic job with pouring her soul and energy into the song. Paul also did a wonderful job in the "White Lies" song carefully crafting the music to go well with it. This cd is great to add to any dance/trance collection and/or for those who also appreciate fun energy music from Europe (Paul Van Dyk hails from Germany).

A Strong and Well-Organized Compilation

, January 11, 2011

This review is from: NOW 36 (Audio CD)

I have listened to a wide variety of now compilations over the past years (since the first American version was created back in 1998), and I would have to say that this is definitely one of the stronger compilations assembled. This collection happens to have many great songs, which gives you more of your money's worth. My top favorite songs on this cd are "If I Had You" by Adam Lambert, "The Only Exception" by Paramore, and "Stuck Like Glue" by Sugarland. "The Only Exception" by Paramore is a very strong and romantic song about someone who at first swore to avoid opening up to falling in love with another during their life, but decided to change their mind when meeting the one who shook up their previous plan. "If I Had You" by Adam Lambert is a very good dancey and upbeat type of song how relationships with those you care about help to enhance your life. Listening to that song definitely enticed me to get one of Adam's cds. My overall favorite song in this compilation is "Stuck Like Glue" by Sugarland. "Stuck Like Glue" is a happy type of song about love prevailing even through challenges and the preconceived views of others on if it would last. I enjoy "Stuck Like Glue" so much that I truthfully plan to listen to it many more times. The three bonus tracks are also enjoyable (my personal favorite bonus track is "Tenessee Me" by the Secret Sisters). The bonus flashback track of "Suspicious Minds" by Elvis was pretty fun to listen to as well. This compilation is worthwhile to get if you know that you would enjoy a various artists selection that offers a good number of songs, and you are open-minded in listening to a range of pop, rock, country, and dance music.

A Creative Medley of Now Hits

What's this?

This review is from: Now Thats What I Call Mu (Audio CD)

This is a lively and energetic collection of hits from the UK version of the Now #76 Compilation series. There is a total of 46 fun hits in this collection ranging from a diverse selection such as "All the Lovers" by Kylie Minogue to One (Your Name) by Swedish House Mafia featuring Pharrell (a really fun and dancey song). Out of 46 songs, at least 43 were very enjoyable to me (which made this collection very much worth getting). There are 23 songs on each cd with a wonderful variety of different artists included in each cd. Many of the songs easily fall under dance (Gettin Over You by David Guetta feat. Chris Willis, Fergie, and LMFAO), pop (Turn It Up by Pixie Lott), and/or adult contemporary (such as the enjoyable Hey, Soul Sister by Train). This is a good cd to play at a party and/or if you want to listen to a fun and feel good type of cd at home. There is something for everyone to enjoy in this collection. My personal favorite songs on the first disc are "Commander" by Kelly Rowland featuring David Guetta and "Carry Out" by Timbaland featuring Justin Timberlake. "Commander" is a very high energy eurodance song that seems to be about someone who enjoys having a good time at the dance club and plans on giving their love interest an enjoyable time as well. Kelly Rowland and David Guetta collaborate very well together in "Commander". I personally think that it would be wonderful if Kelly worked with David more in the future on any other songs that she may plan to create. "Carryout" is a very seductive song about being turned on and about what is going to be done (in a fun way) about to the person that is stimulating that excitement. Timbaland and Justin Timberlake really work excellent together to make the "Carryout" song very creative and seductive. My two favorite songs on the second disc are "Fire with Fire" by Scissor Sisters and "One" (Your Name) by Swedish House Mafia featuring Pharrell. I am truthfully still making out the full meaning of "Fire with Fire" but I think it is a song about a relationship that experiences challenges but is still enjoyable because of the desire present. The song "One" is sung by American musician Pharrell Williams and from what I have seen online three DJ's who are from Sweden (which obviously and most likely explains the Swedish House Mafia moniker). The Collaboration between Pharrell and the Swedish House Mafia also works wonderfully because the song "One" appears to be a catchy tune about someone that stands out in such an interesting way that the person who admires them ends up having a strong desire to know their name (which explains the lyrics of I want to know your name). Overall, this is definitely an exciting and catchy collection to get if you enjoy dance and/or pop music that is high-energy and that you can play at gatherings, parties, or just listen to at home (because of the collection containing many songs where you can sing along to and/or move your body to).

Living with Happiness

What's this?

This review is from: Living with Joy: Keys to Personal Power and Spiritual Transformation (Paperback)

I titled it the way I did because this book does definitely help you to come away empowered on how to increase the happiness in all areas of your life. Many people from all walks of life are going to benefit from this book because of the information that it contains regardless of how happy you are in your life (whether you are still learning to be happy or you are already super happy). Some of the helpful chapters contained in this uplifting book are about living in higher purpose and recognizing life purpose. You may want to keep a pen, paper, and/or highlighter handy for information that is going to resonate with you depending what path you are currently on in your life. I must be considerate of all who are interested in the book, but have yet to read it so I am going to share a couple of my favorite excerpts from the book. My first favorite passages are on page 183(the chapter about living in higher purpose) where it reads: Manifesting is a matter of trusting and believing in yourself, and holding that vision in front of you(the first sentence of the last paragraph)

You are often tested by the universe to see how much you believe in your vision. Every goal is reachable if you keep working on it. (also in the last paragragh on page 183 of the living in higher purpose chapter).

My second favorite passages are on page 191 of the recognizing life purpose chapter that read:

There is often a time lag between the new thought and the having it that confuses and stops many people from continuing to think of the new.

So past thoughts may still affect you for a while, even as you change your thinking. Within two to three months, however, the new thoughts will have gained momentum and will have created new outer forms to match.

I felt the urge to mention these passages taken from the book because they resonate to me (and I am sure others who read the book) how important it is to believe in your dreams regardless of how long they take to manifest. Living with Joy also gives helpful information on how the bigger the dream that you have, the more time that it may take due to the internal changes that are going to have to occur first. The book contains fun excercises and information regarding stimulating the internal changes needed to put you on the path of joy and increasing your receptiveness to attract what you desire. There is going to be others who read the book and discover many other helpful passages and healing information contained in the book. Last, but not least, the other favorite information that I got from this book was how important it was to honor yourself as a unique individual and avoid comparing yourself as better or less than when it comes to how others are doing in their life. Yes, I am aware that countless others may know this, but I enjoyed being reminded of this because I live in an area where it is sometimes too easy to let others define you by what you do. Please understand that I am happy and appreciative where I live, but the first thing I did discover when I moved to the D.C. area is that it is all too common for many people to ask your occupation as a condition of defining you. I quickly learned to avoid comparing myself to others and just be the best that I can be. However,it is always good to read a helpful and cheerful book (such as Living with Joy) on why it is important to your own overall happiness to go within yourself to discover your highest path, and compare your life to that (also found in the recognizing your life purpose chapter). This book is very important to purchase if you have even the slightest concern and/or determination to increase the happiness and joy in all areas of your life and those who surround you.

I concur with the other reviewers that this compilation is so good. Every song on this three cd set is magical and very soothing (there is definitely something for everyone). The music in this collection is a beautiful fusion of various electronica classics from the time period of the early 1990's until 2008. My personal favorites in this collection were Sweet Harmony by The Beloved, Art of Noise by Moments In Love, The Herbaliser by the Sensual Woman, Eple by Royksopp, I Believe by Simian Mobile Disco, and Deepest Blue. There is a total of 60 songs in this wonderful compilation, and with this variety many who buy this collection are going to discover songs that resonate with them. This is good and uplifting music that you can pretty much play around anyone and/or at gatherings. It is definitely gently advised to give this assortment of unique songs a chance if you enjoy electronica and/or chillout music.

This review is from: Martina McBride - Greatest Hits (Audio CD)

Martina really put much emotion and creativity into her songs. Some of my favorite songs by her on this cd are "My Baby Loves Me," "Independence Day", "Wild Angels", "Valentine", and "Happy Girl". "My Baby Loves Me" is a catchy musical number of someone being appreciated for her natural beauty (the guitar notes used in the song are notable). "Independence Day" is about a very young person who endures a challenging childhood to eventually start a new life. "Wild Angels" is a beautiful song about being watched over with the results of good luck. "Valentine" is a gorgeous song about enduring love. My overall favorite song in this greatest hits collection definitely had to be "Happy Girl" because it serves as an upbeat reminder to find anything to be joyful about regardless of external circumstances, allow your emotions to come out in a healthful manner, and to always strive to find the essence of happiness from within yourself. One the plus side I discovered how enjoyable "Happy Girl" was when I was on one of my walks to boost my joy level(I feel lucky that walking while listening to my favorite music always help to boost my endorphin levels). There are other good country songs on this cd as well(such as the dramatic but soul stirring "Love's the Only House"). This is a great collection to get if you like upbeat and soul stirring country/pop music.

A Great Quality of Musical Tracks from Blur

What's this?

This review is from: Best of: BLUR (Audio CD)

One of the first songs that introduced me to this group was the daring and summer themed song of "Girls and Boys". Like many others, I had also heard and enjoyed "Song 2" when it had came out in the 90's. Then I was interested in getting this collection when the lead singer Damon had went on to be the lead singer in the group Gorillaz (this is especially because I enjoyed the musical tracks from the Gorillaz of "Feel Good" and "Dare"). After listening to this cd you are going to get a positive sense of why Damon Albarn was selected to be the frontman for both the Gorillaz and Blur. Damon has a very strong and good singing voice in many of the songs. Like the Gorillaz, the music used in the Blur songs is very unique and energetic. There is the very folksy but relaxing "Coffee and Tv" track on this cd, and then there are the upbeat and fun musical numbers of "Country House", "Song 2", and "Tender'. "Coffe and Tv" seems to be about getting away from it all and starting over a new life. "Song 2" seems to be about letting go, but being kind of relaxed about it. "Tender" is a song about wanting to experience the strong emotion of love. I really enjoyed "Beetlebum" and "Parklife" as well. "Beetlebum" is a very catchy song about how healing someone can be to someone else with their "sensual" and "erotic" skills. "Parklife" is a musical track about taking it easy during the day and starting the day on their own terms. This greatest hits compilation is so good that I would definitely consider purchasing any future music from Blur when they release their new album (it is had been reported through the online Sun newspaper that they may do this). My overall favorite song in this collection is "Girls and Boys", which is a great fun type pop song that makes a positive statement of only sharing yourself with someone where there is a mutual attraction. A person is most likely to enjoy this greatest hits collection by Blur if:

there is an interest in any songs from the Gorillaz and/or Blur,

they enjoy the singing voice of Damon Albarn.

I was intrigued and convinced to purchase one of the cd's of Girls Aloud after hearing, savoring,and enjoying "Call the Shots". I decided to get this collection, and I feel that this collection is a good selection of their tracks. Many of these songs are very high energy and hit the spot if you want to listen to something fun and exciting. Some of the good songs in this collection are "Love Machine", "Sound of the Underground", "Long Hot Summer", and "I Think Were Alone Now" (a good remake of the 80's version from Tiffany). The track that I enjoyed the most was "Something Kinda Ooooh". "Something Kinda Ooooh" is a very daring and catchy song about someone admitting that they really want the person that they are strongly attracted to. Overall, this is a great dance/pop compilation to own.

This was one of my first Now Compilations that I purchased from the United Kingdom musical series, and I must say that it was definitely worth it.

There is a variety of musical genres on this cd that are a creative fusion of hits from many artists from Europe and America. Some of the sampling of the great hits that are available in this collection : "No One" by Alicia Keys, "Just Fine" by Mary J Blige, "This is the Life" by Amy Macdonald, "Ready For the Floor" by Hot Chip, "Pumpkin Soup" by Kate Nash, "Fascination" by Alphabeat, "The Journey Continues" by Mark Brown featuring Sarah Cracknell. However, my personal overall favorite song is "Call the Shots" by Girls Alound ( I have played "Call the Shots" many times since purchasing Now 69). This collection is definitely one to play if you like dance, pop, and/or electronica music.

This review is from: Cornflake Girl (MP3 Music)

This is a great musical track by Tori Amos regarding the personal journey of someone that decides to be unconventional. It appears to be about what happens to someone when they have the courage to break away from the crowd. I enjoy the piano beats and the soul-stirring words that go with this song. I first heard this song back in the 90's but it recently came back in my memory, and compelled me to want to hear it more because of the fact that every now and then I get to hear a good quality piano version of the song from one of my neighbors who lives upstairs from me. "Cornflake Girl" compares in a good way to some of Tori's other quality tracks such as "Caught a Lite Sneeze" and "Precious Things". This is a song that is certainly going to be enjoyed if you like any of Tori Amos's other musical tracks.

Soul Nourishing Song

, January 25, 2011

This review is from: Intuition (MP3 Music)

This is a very fun, gorgeous, and upbeat dance/pop song about why it is important to follow your intuition. The video goes very well with the song because it shows her creatively dressed to the latest trends, and how it is important to follow what is in your heart. This song resonates with me because I personally have had firsthand experiences and realizations just recently on why intuition is important. The one song that can come close to how brilliant Jewel's version is "Intuition" by DJ Encore. However, if you or someone close to you is aware of how important intuition is becoming (especially with the recent world changes taking place daily) then I would highly recommend this energetic, positive, and unique musical track by Jewel.

An Interesting Glimpse of the Military Officer Life

, January 22, 2011

This review is from: An Officer and a Gentleman (Special Collector's Edition) (DVD)

Richard Gere gives a very natural and fantastic performance as Zachary Mayo. Zachary goes through many challenges and tests of emotional and physical endurance on his way to becoming a naval officer via navy officer candidate school. He ends up becoming close friends with another fellow officer candidate named Sid Worley (well played by David Keith). Both Zach and Sid also meet and fall in love during their time in training. Zach's love interest Paula is played by Debra Winger. Sid's love interest Lynette is played by Lisa Blount. Louis Gossett Jr. plays a Marine Gunnery Sargeant by the name of Emil, who is a drill instructor tasked with shaping the officer candidates into leaders. I felt an urge to watch the movie because I use to be in the navy, and I was curious to get an idea of what it might be like for a soon to be officer going through bootcamp compared to the process of an enlisted person through bootcamp (I honorably served in the enlisted ranks from June 2000 until May 2009). The movie itself only takes place in one location, but I did enjoy how the characters forged special friendships and implied the traveling adventures that were going to take place once they graduated from officer candidate school (I appreciate the travel and the many wonderful friends that I met while I was in the navy). The only caveat that I had with the movie was how some of the women were portrayed. The main female characters were beautiful but were depicted as women whose only chance at making something of themselves in life depended the long term plans of their male partners. In real life (in and outside of the military) many women have unlimited potential to achieve whatever they want regardless of their romantic status (it would have been nice if the movie would have portrayed the women as being poised for success regardless of what happens in their romantic lives). I understand that this movie was made in the early 80's before many more women became naval officers. I just wish that they would have showed a more personal romantic life of the one female officer candidate in the school as well as the men that were featured. I only say this because (over a month ago) I currently ran across an article in both airforce times and navy times that told how there is a high rate of military female veterans committing suicide, and one of the reasons cited was the fact that many of these veterans were not acknowledged for having done legitimate military service due to them being women, and as a result feelings of isolation resulted. I myself do not endorse or condone suicide because I appreciate being alive regardless of external circumstances that may appear, but I have empathy and compassion for those who do (whether military or civilian). Officer and a Gentleman is a fantastic movie, but it would be nice if more movies were featured that highlighted the personal lives of military female officers so that more members of the general public can see how both men and women make a positive contribution to our all volunteer military. Aside from my personal rant, I still highly recommend this movie as one to watch especially if you are open to seeing one of many ways of how a military person balances their personal and professional life in an interesting manner.

This review is from: Trance Divas (Audio CD)

I too concur that this compilation is wonderful. There are many energetic and high energy trance/dance songs to listen to from a variety of the talented musicians that are listed on this compilation. What I really enjoy and appreciate about this music is that there are many songs to listen to whether you are looking for an emotional boost and/or to increase an already positive mood. Listening to this collection puts one in their own universe of joy. Some of the songs that are recommended to play right away are "Only If I" by Kate Ryan, "I'm Dreaming" by Ashley Jade, and "Voice of An Angel" by Marcella Woods. However, my favorite overall song in this compilation has got to be the fun and upbeat "Dreamboy" by Lauren (I enjoy this song more and more each time that I play it). Trance Divas is definitely a selection to obtain if you crave unique, upbeat, and soul nourishing trance/dance music.

True to the Title (U2's best from 1990-2000)

, January 20, 2011

This review is from: U2 - The Best of 1990-2000 (Audio CD)

This cd is definitely an excellent and definative collection of U2 hits. All the songs are gems and each one has a style of their own. I am lucky to have been a teenager when many of these hits were created. For example,Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me is a unique electronica influenced song that came out around 1995 for the Batman Forever movie. I do believe that I was 14 when I first heard this fun song. The ending to "Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me is very provocative, but it only adds to the brilliance of the song. Then there is the very upbeat and energetic "Discotheque" (the video to this song is very good as well). Other songs in this collection that one may find themselves replaying are: "Beautiful Day", "Mysterious Ways", "Staring at the Sun","One', "Numb", and "Stuck In a Moment You Can't Get Out Of". "Beautiful Day" is a very therapeutic and feel good musical track to listen to for activating your joy levels and as a positive reminder to enjoy life regardless of what happens externally. I personally liked "Discotheque" and "Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me" the most because these two creative masterpieces are musical tracks where U2 dared to push the musical envelope the most (with beautiful and creative results). This cd is going to be fun and exciting to listen to if you like any of the U2 songs and/or you enjoy listening to 90's rock/alternative rock.

This review is from: Suburban Pleasures (Hardcover)

This book was certainly a pleasure to look at. I previously purchased The Ready to Play: Men at Play book, which ignited my interest to get this book. This is a great book that provides visual delights of men that are eye candy. One of the male models from the Ready to Play book is also featured in some photos in the Suburban Pleasures book. Obviously, I enjoyed this book because I find all the men featured in it very handsome and pleasant to look at. However, what definitely increased this book's value as a worthwhile purchase to me was the variety of men that were featured(different hair colors, eye colors, and body types). There are a wide range of men featured in this book that touch on the frequently used statement "there is something for everyone". I love how the pictures of the men were taken in various parts of the house (such as in front of the kitchen fridge, another male model holding a camera as he leans up against the window blinds, and someone simulating the ironing of the clothes). I have only listed an exciting sampler of the many interesting "room shots" featured. There are so many good poses featured that I too wish that this book was longer. One of the poses that really stood out for me in a good way was the picture where one of the models is holding a glass of milk, and appears to be tugging at his shirt. The "milk shot" is only one of many eye treats available in the book. You are going to enjoy "Suburban Pleasures" if you enjoyed the book "Ready to Play" and/or you have a strong appreciation for the male body.

Satisfying to the Core

, February 4, 2011

This review is from: Can I Touch You...There? (Album Version) (MP3 Music)

This song definitely does touch your spirit in a musical and joyful way. I love listening to "Can I Touch You There?" because it is very sensual, romantic, and beautiful. I believe that "Can I Touch You There?" is about someone confirming with their lover that it is ok to get closer and take things further. Then it gets even more interesting when he sings about showing the person that he desires just what love can do. Both the music and the lyrics complement each other very well. I remember first hearing this song as a teenager and really being touched by it on an emotional level. I love how Michael Bolton shows a sensual, daring, and happy side as he sings this. Yes, he is known for singing many love themed musical creations. However, this is one of my favorite songs by him because he sings about passionate, exciting, and sensual love in a very beautiful, uplifting, and classy manner. Plus, Michael musically took chances singing "Can I Touch You There?, and he really did this song so creatively and with such intensity that any other singer that ever tries to remake this song is going to have big shoes to fill. I admit that I got interested in downloading this song just yesterday evening when I was looking for some unique and great love songs to add to my musical library (plus I love very sensual songs). For some reason, I was compiling a list (of daring musical tracks) on my ipod when this song spontaneously came to mind. I decided to go with this feeling, download and buy this good musical gem, and listen to it. As I listened to it, I was instantly moved and uplifted by the song just as much as I had been when I first heard it as a teenager. This song is very much worthwhile to get if you enjoy sensual pop songs.

This review is from: Britain (Magazine)

I certainly agree with the other reviewers that Britain magazine is a wonderful publication to subscribe to. I made a decision to purchase this subscription because I intend to accomplish one of my personal goals to visit England for at least a week. Britain magazine provides gorgeous photos and extensive information on the various travel gems and destinations to check out during your visit(s) to Great Britain. For example, I currently have the March 2011 issue of Britain magazine. The following is some of the fascinating information that is featured in the March 2011 issue that helps make the publication a worthwhile read:

1)There is a special feature on Unusual Museums (with some very original and fascinating places to symbolize the Unusual moniker). For instance, The Museum of Witchcraft is featured in this issue. The location of this one of a kind museum is listed as being in Boscastle Cornwall. According to the magazine, many witches and warlocks are currently celebrating the fact that it has been opened for 50 years. There is a library of over 3,000 books inside of it, and is known to hold one of the world's most extensive collection of witchcraft paraphernalia(in addition the website to check out this museum is featured in the March 2011 publication). The article also lists The British Lawnmower Museum, which is an innovative museum for lawnmower enthusiasts.

2)There is a well organized compilation of Places to Stay that are listed. A couple of the places that fascinated me are: 1) The Royal Oak House and 2)Regency Cheltenham.

There is so much more great information featured in the well-done magazine. In my humble opinion, you definitely get a good quality publication in Britain magazine for what you pay (overall good value for the money). This magazine is very worthwhile to obtain if you have even a casual interest in visiting and/or living in Britain.

This review is from: Party Around the World (Audio CD)

I too agree with the reviews that this music on this cd is bubblegum pop at its finest. There are many upbeat and fun dance/pop songs from the Swedish group Smile.dk on here that every song on this quality cd has creative substance. This is one of those rare cds where every song on the compilation stands on its own. The following are the songs that I would recommend listening to first before playing the whole cd:

"Temptation Island"- A very energetic and fun summer themed song about allowing your free spirit to rein, and allowing oneself to experience all the good things that life has to offer.

"Koko Soko"- A very unique song that has a lovely fusion of Japanese, electronic,dance, and trance music fused together. The song is about making a connection with someone that is very special and brings much joy and light.

"Summer Party"- A great summer-themed musical track about dancing, having a good time, and letting oneself act a little wild and uninhibited (with the use of the lyrics used of "acting naughty").

"Hummingbird"- A great melody about finding ways to feel good in your life regardless of external circumstances (the upbeat music used in this really adds to the positive strength of the song)

"Paradise"- This is a more mellow and calm song. However, both the lyrics and music are very beautiful and give you a feeling of being in your own personal heaven. It is a gorgeous song about creating heaven on earth for yourself, and wanting to "give heaven" to the person that gives those positive feelings of being "in paradise".

I have had this cd since December 2008, and I find it even more enjoyable to listen to than when I first purchased it. I was still in the navy at the time, and I was looking for music to play at work that would put me and others who work around me in a good mood. Please understand that I appreciate my time that I spent in the navy, but it was important to me find music that would help add to creating a positive work environment (especially since I was lucky to work in an area that allowed music). I fortunately found what I was looking for in purchasing this cd because even one of the supervisors at the time found this music enjoyable, and asked me who the group was. Listening to this cd (when I first bought it back in December 2008) gave me an emotional boost regardless of whether I was playing it at work or at home. This cd still is great to listen in order to increase euphoric feelings regardless of the location it is being played. This is an all purpose compilation to listen to whether at work, home, and/or excercising (such as walking or running).

This review is from: Vol. 41-Future Trance (Audio CD)

I have had the good fortune of listening to Future Trance Vol. 40, and I was pleased that Future Trance Vol. 41 is also a good quality compilation. Future Trance Vol 41 has many pleasing and unique musical tracks to listen to such as in Vo. 40. Both Disc 1 and 2 had some good and energetic songs, but I did enjoy Disc 2 more. My favorite songs from Disc 1 are:

"Summer of 69" by TopModelz (an interesing remake of the Bryan Adams version)

"Heaven" by Manian

"Let's All Chant" by Straight Flush

"Somewhere Over the Rainbow" by Naksi vs Brunner

My favorite songs from Disc 2:

"Love Is Everywhere (New Location)" by Westbam and the Love Committee

"Ride Like The Wind" by Michael Mind

"Waiting For" by Peter Gelderblom (a great remake of the Red Hot Chili Pepppers cover)

"Another World Part II" by DJ Shog (the music and vocals is very one of a kind)

"The One" by Sylver (this is one of my favorite songs by this group)

"Like Flames" by Twenty 4 Seven feat. Elle

"Power" by Shaun Baker (a catchy tune about feeling power within yourself

"Deeper" by Fragma (I believe that this song is about passionate desire from the same artist who is known for the musical masterpiece that is the musical track of "Toca's Miracle")

"You Wanted Love" by 2 Vibez

"Walking A Line" by Cane (this is my overall favorite song on this cd, it is a good song about what can happen when you get addicted to someone because of the euphoria and overall pleasure they bring into your life, and try as you might you keep on wanting to come back for more from such a person)

Future Trance Vol. 41 is a good cd to listen to when you are doing physical activity such as walking or running. This would also be a good compilation to play for giving happiness to yourself, and/or to play at a party.

Exciting and Enjoyable Rock Songs

This review is from: The Edge Music Collection (3 Cd Set) As Seen On TV (Audio CD)

This compilation has a great mix of edgy hard rock/alternative rock music from the 1990's and 2000's. Some of the great songs featured on this 3 cd set collection are:

1)Headstrong by Trapt

2)Remedy by Seether

3)Alive by P.O.D

4)Bring Me to Life by Evanescence

5)Machinehead by Bush

6)The Bad Touch by the Bloodhound Gang

7)Youth of the Nation by P.O.D

8)You and Me by Lifehouse

9)Be Like That by 3 Doors Down

This is only a snapshot of the hits that are featured in this 3 cd set (the 9 songs I listed are only some out of the 50 musical tracks available). I did enjoy the wide range of the artists featured in this selection, but there are some songs that I feel would have been good to include such as "Kryptonite" by 3 Doors Down, "Through Glass" by Stone Sour, "Dani California" by the Red Hot Chili Peppers, and "Dance Dance" by Fall Out Boy. However, I still recommend obtaining this three cd set if you enjoy hard rock/alternative rock from the 1990's and the 2000's.

A very Likeable Musical Track

, January 28, 2011

This review is from: Like I Love You (MP3 Music)

"Like I Love You" is an upbeat and edgy musical track that was one of Justin's fun introductions to the public to coincide with his solo career. I remember how popular this song was when it first came out. I was living in Yokosuka, Japan (I was stationed there around this time when I was in the navy) and I was at a high quality department clothing store when this song was played. I was hanging out with a group of people, and I know at least a couple of them (besides just myself) that was enjoying the song as it was played. This musical track was enjoyable then, and still is now because of the great music and daring lyrics featured together in the song. It is about a person who just wants to enjoy the person that they have an attraction towards (with the lyrics "I just want to love you baby"). I would definitely say that this song is worth obtaining if you enjoyed the song "Girlfriend" when Justin was still in 'N Sync and/or you like any of Justin Timberlake's other daring songs such as "Rock Your Body".

A Good Song about Empowerment

, January 28, 2011

This review is from: Independent Women, Pt. I (MP3 Music)

This is a very catchy and inspirational tune on what it means to be self-reliant. I remember the song when it first came out because it was being promoted for the newer version of the Charlie's Angels Movie (Charlie's angels is even quoted in the song). I like the positive theme to the song about learning to always be independent in all areas of your life, and of it being 50/50 in relationships. The song sends a positive message to avoid depending on others to give you what you want, and to instead find ways to obtain your desires through your own means (the group cleverly does this by using lyrics such as "the shoes on my feet, I bought it", and with mentioning how they even paid for the place they live in). This is also a good song to listen to for putting oneself in a prosperous state of mind. Overall, this is definitely a song to listen to if you like any of Beyonce's songs and/or any music from Destiny's Child.

This review is from: Future Trance V.40 (Audio CD)

Future Trance Vol. 40 is a good and fun mix of some very innovate musical artists of the dance/trance genre. Many of the songs featured in this collection sound very unique (in a positive way) because of the strong European dance music genre feel. The music listener of this collection gets treated to some enjoyable and unique remakes such as country music Faith Hill's "Breath" song (the group Headspinz featuring Lizzy Pattinson sings the remade version). I was pleasantly suprised that I liked the Headspinz version of "Breath" because I also very much enjoy Faith Hill's version. Another interesting musical remake that was done in this compilation involved the song "I Touch Myself" by Jan Wayne Vs. Scarlet. As many of you know the Australia rock group the Divinyls is famous for the original cover version that became very popular in the 1990's. A couple of my favorite songs in this collection are "Burnin Love" by Katie Jewels and "The Music" by Ultra DJ's. What I enjoy about Future Trance Vol. 40 is that many of the songs in this collection are very energetic, uplifting,unique, and futuristic. One really does get a sense of listening to music that is part of a great future. This collection is definitely recommended for anyone that likes eclectic dance/trance music that is very futuristic and upbeat.

Madonna's Most Recent Greatest Hits Compilation

This review is from: Celebration (Audio CD)

As many others who enjoy Madonna's music, I have pretty much grew up listening to many of Madonna's songs. One of the first songs that I can recall hearing of hers was "Like a Virgin". I admit that I was definitely under 10 years old before being exposed to her music, but I found her music good to listen to then and I still do now. With this said, I have to agree with others who say that more of her hits could have been included in this collection. Every Madonna fan has their favorite songs that could have been included. For me, I wish that the songs "Fever"(from her Erotica album), "Rain"(from her Erotica album) and "I'll Remember"(for the film "With Honors") would have been included in the "Celebration" collection. I would respectfully say that she has had enough hits to at least have warranted a three cd set collection, rather than just two. However, I still feel that this collection is worth owning because of the diversity of songs included in the "Celebration" collection. For instance, the music listener is treated to her daring 80's side with the catchy songs of "Dress You Up"(a song about wanting to express one's desire for who they are attracted to) and "Burning Up"(a musical track about having intense emotions for someone). There is also a diversity of good songs showcased from the 90's such as "Vogue" and "Ray of Light". Madonna then put out some more music in the 2000's, which gave some good songs such as "Music" and "Beautiful Stranger"(song provided for the film Austin Powers:The Spy Who Shagged Me). The best way to determine if you are going to feel good from owning the "Celebration" collection is if you enjoy any of her music from the 80's, 90's, and the 2000's (due to the fact that music from these time periods are organized throughout the two cds).

Romantic and Beautiful Ballad

This review is from: The Lady In Red (MP3 Music)

I read online that Chris De Burgh actually created this song in dedication to his wife (that is so sweet). This beautiful song is about a woman wearing red, and ends up being a target of admiration at a party she is at. He ends up getting her alone, and it is easy to see this when he sings "there is nobody here, just you and me". He mentions that he is always going to remember the way she looked that night (with the lyrics I never will forget the way you look tonight). What makes the song romantic is that at he ends the song by saying "I Love You". This is definitely a romantic song to have in your playlist when you are in the mood for a love song to listen to that is romantic, but a little conservative.

Makes You Want to Have Fun

, February 10, 2011

This review is from: Do You Want To (MP3 Music)

This is a very catchy come hither type song by Scottish rock group Franz Ferdinand. This is a very daring song about a guy asking a woman that he met out in public if she wants to sleep with him. He basically makes this clear with the lyrics "want to go where I never let you before". He makes references to the "arty" friends that she has, which a person listening to this song can take it as he is either propositioning her at some type of art gallery or party. The Way that lead singer Alex Kapranos sings the song is so convincing that he actually creates a believable image through the song of boldly going after the person he desires. "Do You Want To" is a very good musical track that can be played at either a party and/or makeout session. "Do You Want To" is a fun and carefree song that is in the same creative spirit as their 2004 musical hit "Take Me Out". "Do You Want To" is a worthwhile musical track to have if you enjoy the song "Take Me Out" and/or European rock music.

This review is from: The Voice (MP3 Music)

I LOVE this song "The Voice" by the British Group The Moody Blues. Many reading this may most likely remember The Moody Blues from their popular 80's musical hit "Your Wildest Dreams". I found this bit of info fascinating because I intend to visit England. I felt compelled to buy it less than 7 hours ago when it came to my mind. I went with this feeling because I remember first hearing it quite some time before my seventh birthday. Yes, I was very young, and it was not until a few hours ago that I understood the full meaning of the song. What I do remember is feeling a sense of peace and calm when I first heard this musical gem around the time I was 5 or 6. Obviously, much time went by before I would hear this song again. Occasionally, it would pop up in my head but for some reason I would delay in getting the song because the artist and lyrics were unknown to me up until today. I felt compelled to do something immediately by researching online because the song kept playing in my mind, and I felt a strong urge to go with the feeling. I am so glad that I did because I was fortunate to have finally discovered the name to the song, and the group. The meaning of the song is a positive message about following your inner voice and/or dreams. The musical track also serves as a positive and gentle reminder to trust in one's inner guidance to create the desired joyful present and future. I feel lucky and blessed that I came across this song at the right time for me, and that I followed my feeling to look up the song when it was on my mind last night. I also intend to purchase the greatest hits collection by "The Moody Blues" after hearing the beautiful tune that is "The Voice". "The Voice" is a wonderful blend of classic rock, soft rock, and 80's pop. I would say to definitely consider getting this song if you are open to listening to 80's British music,soft rock sounds, and/or you enjoyed listening to "Your Wildest Dreams".

I have to first start off by saying that I am happy and pleased with the number of hits that are included in this collection of Robbie William's Hits. The songs that stood out for me the most are:

1)She's the One-A great track on what it feels like to be with someone that is like your twin soul. He recently found true love with US model and actress Ayda Field (Robbie married her at his Los Angeles mansion in the summer of 2010) (I saw a picture of them on a bbc website, they are a cute couple). The point that I am making is that because he has found true love that the title "She's the One" has come to be the real-life connection to his great musical art.

2)Rock DJ- A great song about having fun, and making the best of your life regardless of where in your journey that you are.

3)Millenium- A song that symbolizes taking inventory of where a person is in their life while an abundance of time is available.

4)Angels- A beautiful song about enjoying the company of kind people (symbolized by the lyrics I'm loving angels instead).

5)Do Me Now- A catchy song about the many fascinating things that he is interested in, but that although he has many interest, that in the now moment it is more important to him to seize the moment and have fun.

6)Feel- A beautiful song about experiencing passionate and happy love. His music video has him playing a rodeo star, and Hannah plays as his love interest. I love both the video and the song to "Feel". I admit that I thought that Robbie Willliams looked very handsome in the "Feel" video. However, his quality lyrics and strong singing expressed in "Feel" proves that he is much more than just an attractive face(and that Robbie truly has the gift of singing great songs). "Feel" by Robbie Williams is one of my favorite songs because it expresses how passion can serve as a positive agent for joyful change in a person's life.

7)Bodies- A very sexy song that is tastefully done, and appears to be about striving to make sense of the importance of seeing the beauty in one's body even amidst the societal obsession with having "perfect" and/or "thin" bodies.

Getting this three cd set by Robbie Williams was so very worth it because of the number of good songs and his excellent voice. There is something magnetic and powerful about Robbie William's voice that goes wonderfully with many of this songs. Please consider getting this collection of Robbie's if you like any of his songs and/or you enjoy pop music. In my humble opinion, Robbie has so much talent and creatively expresses his spirit through his music (it beautifully shows through many of the songs on this three cd set). I would even dare to say that Robbie deserves alot more attention here in America because of the superb music that he creates, and his powerful singing voice).

A Solid Recovery

, February 7, 2011

This review is from: Recovery [Explicit] (Audio CD)

This is a very strong compilation from Eminem. I really feel that Eminem put alot of energy in making sure that listeners get a great musical cd. Yes, many of his finest songs on this cds have some strong language. However, the songs that have the most daring lyrics are some of the best songs. All of the songs on this Recovery collection are very cutting-edge and daring (in a fun and exciting way). The following five songs stood out for me the most:

1)W.T.P: A very naughty but exciting song about having a party involving people having fun.

2)Space Bound: A very daring but creative love song about being with someone that you truly have. Eminem sings with such strong conviction that he really excels at singing daring love songs like this with such lyrics as: you take my breath away, you're a supernova. I really enjoyed hearing the side of him of what it feels like through his perspective of what it means to be in love. The only caveat I had with this song is that he sings about literally choking the person he loves if she ever thought about leaving him, with the following words: I put both hands on your throat. Yes, I understand that it is just entertainment (also I am sure that Eminem himself does not condone abusing your partners in any form). My husband even playfully joked with me about there being nothing wrong with choking the person you love if they leave you (please understand that my husband was just joking and is actually a sweet person who is very laidback, and does not condone physical or verbal abuse). However, hopefully countless other couples that hear this song are also going to understand that this song is only entertainment and is no way endorsing the act of killing someone who leaves you.

3)Cinderella Man- A great song about making comebacks in life, and making the most of second chances that you are given. I also like how he subtly drops the concept of time travel with the lyrics "music is my time machine".

4)Love the Way You Lie- This was a great collaboration that Eminem did with Rihanna (I thought that they had strong chemistry together in this song). The video and the song are both a powerful combination and sends a strong message how love can play a strong influence in the challenge threshold that one is willing to endure for someone that means so much to them.

5) So Bad- I admit that this was my favorite song by him. Yes, this musical track can pretty much be titled a "Bad Boy's Anthem". He sings about giving his sexual conquests such good sex that he is going to end up being forever embedded in their memories. The lyrics are very wild but so much fun that you are going to have to listen to the song in order to see for yourself why this song can safely be titled a "Bad Boy's Anthem" and/or a "Player's Anthem". However, I confess that this song was one that I enjoyed so much that it has been played multiple times since I had this cd.

There are other songs on this cd that may appeal more to others. However, to sum it up this cd is very good. After listening to this I definitely plan on tuning into this year's Grammy Awards show because I am rooting for him to win some awards.Eminem has definitely put out an enjoyable album to listen to with "Recovery".

A Versatile Country Collection

, February 7, 2011

This review is from: Now Country Volume 3 (Audio CD)

This is a great selection of many of today's hottest country stars. There is a wide selection of artists to choose from, and a diverse range of country songs to enjoy. I felt compelled to obtain this cd when I saw the selection of country artists featured on this cd, and I am glad that I went with the feeling. I say this because all of the musical tracks in this Now Country Music compilation are good. The musical creations that stood out for me the most were "Crazy Town" by Jason Aldean, "Up On the Ridge" by Dierks Bientley, and "Unstoppable" by Rascal Flatts. "Up On the Ridge" by Dierks Bentley is a strong musical number about meeting up with someone for a carefree get-together. "Crazy Town" by Jason Aldean appears to be about the paths that people have to be aware of when going after their dreams of fame and fortune. My favorite song in this collection is "Unstoppable" by Rascal Flatts. "Unstoppable" is an uplifting and happy song about picking yourself up by your bootstraps and perservering. This song also appears to be about learning through your mistakes and transforming them into blessings through the tools of faith and believing in yourself. I love how Rascall Flatts sends a positive message through "Unstoppable" that it is more how your pick yourself back up that matters. Definitely consider getting this compilation if you like various artists hits collection, you enjoy country music, and/or you are open to listening to country music.

Collective Set of Hits

, February 7, 2011

This review is from: 7even Year Itch: Collective Soul Greatest Hits 1994-2001 (Audio CD)

This is a fantastic compilation by Collective Soul. This was one of the groups that actually got me interested in opening my mind to listen to rock music when I first heard them as a teenager via watching their "Shine" music video on MTV (I really only started to listen to rock music more frequently around the time I turned 14, and there was something about the "Shine" video that drew me in). I just wish that they would have included more songs on their greatest hits collection. I would say that many of these songs have a strong alternative rock sound with a heavy southern influence (the group was originally formed in Georgia). Lead singer Ed Roland sings with much conviction and intensity in many of the songs that one can get a sense that he really cared about communicating important messages through his songs. For example, in the song "Shine" I think that Ed and the rest of his band members were trying to send a vital message about seeing the good and what is appealing in everyone regardless if they fit into the mainstream of society (that is the message that I appeared to pick up after watching the video to "Shine"). There are some other musical tracks that compare to "Shine" in a great way such as "Precious Declaration", "Gel", "December", "Run", and "The World I Know". "The World I Know" appears to be about staying emotionally strong and laughing at oneself through the process of change. "Run" appears to be content with where you are at, and making peace with whatever is in your life regardless of what you are planning on your journey. "December" appears to be a musical number about the strong impact that someone close to you can have in all areas of your life. "Precious Declaration" appears to be about the values of freedom and staying hopeful regardless of external circumstances. My personal overall favorite song is "Gel" which appears to be about accepting others in your immediate environment for who they are, even when it may be different from someone's personal belief system and/or shatters their paradigm of their expectations. This is a quality greatest hits to have if you like 90's rock music.

Steamy and Classy

, February 7, 2011

This review is from: One On One (Remastered) (MP3 Music)

This is a very romantic and steamy song about a person who bluntly states that they would like some private time with the one that they are attracted to. "One one One" implies how he would like to play "fun games" with his conquest. He makes it very clear that he has physically expressing his desires on the mind when the lyrics are mentioned "I want to play with you girl, just you and me". You are most likely going to enjoy "One one One" if you have heard the songs the followings songs before and enjoyed them: "Kiss On My List", "Out of Touch", "You Make My Dreams Come True", "Private Eyes" and/or "I Can't Go For That (No Can Do).

A Good Song with Fine Vocals

, February 7, 2011

This review is from: Damn I Wish I Was Your Lover (MP3 Music)

Words can only partly describe the classic that this song is. This musical track is a very energetic and dance/pop creation about someone imagining what it would be like to be the lover of someone that they really desire. Sophie puts alot of soul and energy in this song in a very creative and intense way. I love how she paints a good story in her songs such as when she mentions while singing that she had a dream that she was the hero of the one she very much wants. She also makes it fun by mentioning about making her fantasy lover "feel much better". What makes this musical track even more appealing is that Sophie sings really beautiful vocals to go along with the great lyrics to the song. "Damn I Wish I Was Your Lover" compares to two of the following other songs of Sophie B. Hawkins in a good way:

"As I Lay Me Down"- A great musical track about how she appreciates her lover and intends to always be happy. This is such a beautiful song, and the video I saw to this on youtube is very good.

"Right Beside You"- This is also another song that showcases her gorgeous voice, and she sings with the same passion and great spirit as "Damn I Wish I Was Your Lover."

If you happen to like "As I Lay Me Down" and/or "Right Beside You" then it is most likely that you are going to the fine musical melody that is "Damn I Wish I Was Your Lover".

This review is from: Hit (Audio CD)

This collection by Peter Gabriel is definitely a collection full of great hits. Some of my personal favorite songs included in this greatest hits cd set are:

Solsbury Hill

Shock the Monkey

Sledgehammer

Games Without Frontiers

Digging in the Dirt

Steam

Lovetown

My overall favorite song is "Sledgehammer" because he cleverly phrases the lyrics in a way to express what he plans to be to his lover in a tasteful and unique manner. "Games Without Frontiers" came in as my second most favorite Peter Gabriel song because he expresses great talent in making a political message in how idealogies between different countries can sometimes cause a challenge in diplomatic relations. I also like how he wisely sings the lyrics in the song "Dressing Up in Costumes, Playing Silly Games". I also believe that the song sends a thoughtful and positive message about looking past the external appearance of someone and instead making a open-minded observation based on what is picked up from their personality and spirit. The greatest hits collection is a high-quality and strong cd set that is a good collection to have if you enjoy 80's music, Phil Collins, Genesis, pop music, and/or rock music.

Futuristic and Fun Trance Music

, Jan. 29 2011

This review is from: Future Trance V.40 (Audio CD)

Future Trance Vol. 40 is a good and fun mix of some very innovate musical artists of the dance/trance genre. Many of the songs featured in this collection sound very unique (in a positive way) because of the strong European dance music genre feel. The music listener of this collection gets treated to some enjoyable and unique remakes such as country music Faith Hill's "Breath" song (the group Headspinz featuring Lizzy Pattinson sings the remade version). I was pleasantly suprised that I liked the Headspinz version of "Breath" because I also very much enjoy Faith Hill's version. Another interesting musical remake that was done in this compilation involved the song "I Touch Myself" by Jan Wayne Vs. Scarlet. As many of you know the Australia rock group the Divinyls is famous for the original cover version that became very popular in the 1990's. A couple of my favorite songs in this collection are "Burnin Love" by Katie Jewels and "The Music" by Ultra DJ's. What I enjoy about Future Trance Vol. 40 is that many of the songs in this collection are very energetic, uplifting,unique, and futuristic. One really does get a sense of listening to music that is part of a great future. This collection is definitely recommended for anyone that likes eclectic dance/trance music that is very futuristic and upbeat.

A Strong Collection of Trance/Dance Tunes

This review is from: Future Trance V.41 (Audio CD)

I have had the good fortune of listening to Future Trance Vol. 40, and I was pleased that Future Trance Vol. 41 is also a good quality compilation. Future Trance Vol 41 has many pleasing and unique musical tracks to listen to such as in Vo. 40. Both Disc 1 and 2 had some good and energetic songs, but I did enjoy Disc 2 more. My favorite songs from Disc 1 are:

"Summer of 69" by TopModelz (an interesing remake of the Bryan Adams version)

"Heaven" by Manian

"Let's All Chant" by Straight Flush

"Somewhere Over the Rainbow" by Naksi vs Brunner

My favorite songs from Disc 2:

"Love Is Everywhere (New Location)" by Westbam and the Love Committee

"Ride Like The Wind" by Michael Mind

"Waiting For" by Peter Gelderblom (a great remake of the Red Hot Chili Pepppers cover)

"Another World Part II" by DJ Shog (the music and vocals is very one of a kind)

"The One" by Sylver (this is one of my favorite songs by this group)

"Like Flames" by Twenty 4 Seven feat. Elle

"Power" by Shaun Baker (a catchy tune about feeling power within yourself

"Deeper" by Fragma (I believe that this song is about passionate desire from the same artist who is known for the musical masterpiece that is the musical track of "Toca's Miracle")

"You Wanted Love" by 2 Vibez

"Walking A Line" by Cane (this is my overall favorite song on this cd, it is a good song about what can happen when you get addicted to someone because of the euphoria and overall pleasure they bring into your life, and try as you might you keep on wanting to come back for more from such a person)

Future Trance Vol. 41 is a good cd to listen to when you are doing physical activity such as walking or running. This would also be a good compilation to play for giving happiness to yourself, and/or to play at a party.

Bill & Ted's Colorful Journey

, Feb. 4 2011

This review is from: Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey (Widescreen) [Import] (DVD)

Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey is a sequel that is suprisingly entertaining and is a good mix of comedy and science fiction. Bill is played by Alex Winter and Ted is played by Keanu Reeves. Many know Alex Winter from the "The Lost Boys" film (a great vampire movie by the way). Keanu Reeves is widely known for the "Matrix films". This movie centers around Bill and Ted's journeys through the afterlife via the means of a time travel phone booth and doing battle with the robots that are the more mischevious versions of themselves. They also end up having to simultaneously deal with the tasks of saving their partners(who they met when traveling to the 15th century time period) and the world at the same time. Along their journey they encounter the grim reaper (played by William Thomas Sadler), recieve help to accomplish their mission from fellow time traveler Rufus (played by George Carlin), and save the world from a man named De NoMolos who wants to rule the world and utilize the time travel medium for scandalous aims (played by English actor Joss Ackland). The movie involves Bill and Ted alternating between the 1990's time period, the realms of the afterlife, and the future time period of 2691. I admit that part of the reason why I enjoyed this movie is because Keanu Reeves is one of the actors I admire. However,both Alex Winter and Keanu Reeves gave good performances as Bill and Ted. I read online that there may be another sequel to this movie to come out in the future. I admit that I am going to watch the future sequel if it is released because Bill and Ted's bogus journey is very funny. This is the type of movie to watch if you are looking for something to make you laugh. I know that this movie was purely entertainment and fictional but this movie makes it fun to imagine the possibilities of if a time travel medium was to ever exist. I have always been very lucky in my life, and I do believe that a person has the power to create their future however they want regardless of what happened in the past. However, this movie also made me think of the positive possibilities of what would happen if a time travel machine was ever made for journeying back and forth between time to change some events in my own life (that I had the power to do differently, and would only bring joyful benefit for myself and others). This movie has definitely piqued my interest to eventually see more time travel themed movies. I would say to definitely see this movie if you have an interest in Keanu Reeves, Alex Winter, comedy that puts a smile on your face, and/or the concept of time travel.

Still Sounds So Good

, 30 Jan. 2011

This review is from: Hurts So Good (Album Version) (MP3 Download)

This is a very good rock song that has definitely stood the test of time and still sounds great to listen to for years after its original release (youtube has it listed as a 1982 release). The guitar riffs used in the song are very good, and the lyrics are very catchy and daring. The song pretty much seems to be about experiencing both pain and pleasure on a sexual level(via the use of lyrics where he is singing for his lover to make it hurt so good). This is one of my favorite songs by him. Another song of John Mellencamp's that comes close to being as daring as the "Hurts So Good" song is "Wild Night" where he sang a duet with Meshell Ndegeocello. The "Hurts So Good" song is going to be fun to listen to if you also happen to like John and Meshell's cover of "Wild Night".

Touchin a Daring Chord

, 30 Jan. 2011

This review is from: Touchin On My (MP3 Download)

"Touchin On My" is a very blunt song about basically being receptive to taking it beyond making out with someone that you are mutually attracted to. This musical track is very energetic and fun in the same type of spirit as "My First Kiss". The only thing about this song version is that certain words seemed to be edited out intentionally (such as when the lyrics come up of if the person wants them, they are not going to say no). I completely understand that this probably had to be done in order for the song to be safe to play in public and on the radio (on their website, some of their concerts are going to be in Orlando, Florida, which is a family friendly vacation spot). However, the song would have more of a zest and excitement to it if the words would have just been directly said. Listening to the song still gives you the obvious meaning that it is about basically about just having a good time with someone that you are passionately interested in. This song is still good to own for your musical listening pleasure if you enjoy "My First Kiss".

What's this?

)Garth Brook's Ultimate Hits is a strong and high-quality collection. The bonus to owning this collection is that you get two cds and one dvd of Garth Brook's greatest hits. This cd does have many of his greatest hits. Here are some of the hits that are my personal favorites in this compilation:

"In Another's Eyes"

"We Shall Be Free"

"Shameless"

"The River"

"The Dance"

The one thing that I am suprised about is the fact that the song "You Move Me" was left off this compilation. The other songs included are great and make obtaining this greatest hits collection worth it. However, the reason why I feel like "You Move Me" would have been beneficial to include in this compilation is because it is a loving, beautiful, and uplifting song about how his lover touches him. The theme of "You Move Me" would have went wonderfully with the other love songs that are included on this Garth Brook's greatest hits collection. This collection is best to get if you enjoy country music and/or you are an occasional country music listener who enjoys collecting greatest hit compilations of talented musicians.

This Musical Gem Helps You More Than Make It

, February 13, 2011

This review is from: I Made It (Cash Money Heroes) [feat. Birdman] [Explicit] (MP3 Music)

This is a great song to listen to when you want to either put yourself in and/or maintain a positive mindset. This musical track is about overcoming obstacles and succeeding even in spite of them. He sings about how he lives a very prosperous life now, and how the world is his. I really enjoy this song because it serves as powerful musical inspiration to always believe in yourself to succeed regardless of if others outside of you believe in you. "I Made It" also serves as a powerful and uplifting reminder to always give yourself the encouragement to go after what you want, and learn to find a way to achieve your goals regardless of the level of external support you may have. I picked up on this compelling message from the following lyrics:

Known from the city where no one believed in me

But I never gave up the fight.

Yeah, but now I'm on top.

I told you to let it rock (Rock!)

Now the money's fallin' from the sky-y-y-y-y

I made it.

I first heard this song back in June 2010,and I felt lucky to hear about it when I did because I had just moved to the D.C. area May 2010. There are many positive benefits and places that make the D.C. area a great place to live. However, my own creativity and emotional strength increased spontaneously when making the move because I knew no one in the area, and the earliest my husband was going to be able to join me was about a month later. I happen to have come across this song watching it on TV, and it resonated with me because listening to it provided me the encouragement and insight to remind myself that I can accomplish my goals independently by going within myself. I am appreciative to say that fortunately things turned out smoothly for me, and I still listen to this song for encouragement for both an emotional boost and maintaining an ambitious and positive state of mind. I previously heard of Kevin Rudolf through his musical hit "Let it Rock" when I was living in Norfolk Virginia. I would say to definitely get this song if you enjoy listening to "Let It Rock" or if you like pop, rock, and/or any type of encouragement/prosperous mindset song.

This review is from: Robb Report [Print + Kindle] (Magazine)

This is a fantastic magazine for those who like to dream and see some of the pleasures of what it is like to have an abundance of options on what to buy,where to go, where to live etc. Yes, at the time of this writing the magazine subscription can easily cost in the 65 dollar territory. However, I am here to tell you that obtaining this magazine is very much worth it if you even remotely care about increasing your wealth in all areas of your life. Many times the Robb Report magazine contains a complementary issue regarding vacation homes, holiday travel etc. I have the exciting January 2011 issue in front of me (named The Travel Issue) and the February 2011 issue (features ferrari classics). Here is some of the fascinating things that the January 2011 Robb Report Travel Issue has in it:

Grand Openings of Some of the Luxurious Real Estate Properties such as the St. Regis Bahia Beach Resort in Puerto Rico,One and Only the Palm in Dubai,Soho Beach House Miami, Le Royal Monceau, Raffles Paris

An informative article titled Four of a Kind (by Samantha Brooks) that features a high-quality selection of some of the vacation homes that are found in some of the most sought after resort communities.

This is some of the captivating information found in the February 2011 Robb Report Issue:

Information on some of the best available Ferraris in the market today

Grand Opening article feature on the Prince of Paris

There is much more information available than what I have just listed. Overall, this magazine is very inspirational and beautifully done with the wonderful pictures that are featured each month that cover the vacation spots, cars, vacation homes etc. I was lucky to have found out about this magazine through reading a book called Wildy Wealthy by Sandy Forster (in the book she helpfully mentions that The Robb Report magazine helps get you in a more prosperous state of mind). I have to agree with Sandy's endorsement of the Robb Report magazine in her book because it definitely continues to inspire me on what is possible. For me, just looking at the magazine helps to increase my awareness on why it is important to go after your personal dreams regardless of external circumstances around you. I feel that this magazine is so important and inspirational that any extra Robb Report magazines that I happen to accumulate either go towards my personal collage collection or my local thrift store so that others are also able to picture what is possible. I have been a subscriber to this captivating magazine since June 2010, and I intend to continue to retain my subscription for many more years to come. As mentioned earlier, I certainly recommend this magazine if you want to be inspired to accomplish any personal dreams you may have and/or you at least remotely care about increasing wealth in all areas of your life.

This compilation is very well-done and put together. You really do get a feel of many of the Moody Blues Greatest Hits. Some of my favorite songs in the collection are:

The Voice: A great and uplifting song about the importance of learning to trust your feelings and inner voice (which helps explain the voice title). The song also sends a positive message that you can create your future however you want.

Your Wildest Dreams: A beautiful song about someone singing about what it felt like to them when they were with their first love, and they wonder if that person thinks about them from time to time.

Nights in White Satin: A beautiful song about being in love.

The Story In Your Eyes: An interesting musical track about living a life to good fortune and good luck.

Steppin in a Slide Zone: What makes this musical number interesting is the time travel references.

My overall favorite song after listening to this compilation is definitely still "The Voice". I have played "The Voice" frequently this week, and it always gives me joyful positive encouragement listening to it. "Your Wildest Dreams" comes in a close second. All the songs in this compilation are very good to listen to. This compilation is worthwhile to get if you like classic rock and/or soft rock.

This review is from: Love Ever After: How My Husband Became My Spirit Guide (Paperback)

This is a very beautiful and touching took to read when you know that your spirit hungers for knowledge, comfort, and an uplifting emotional boost. This book does all three because it tells a touching story of a woman named Joy who made contact with her husband(Bob) after he passed over. What initially started out as a quest for spiritual insight on a family tragedy had also turned into an unexpected journey towards accumulating increased knowledge. Here are some of the fascinating things that Joy discovered some answers to:

How to Recognize Your Life Path

How to Contact Your Loved Ones on the Other Side

How to Attract Money

Bob's 12 step program to realize your dreams

How the soul chooses it lessons

These topics are some of what is featured in this uplifting and knowledge increasing book. For me, I definitely have learned valuable information from this book that has helped me to release over 25 pounds since I first bought this book on halloween of last year. Bob mentions to Joy that it is important for people to find ways to be happy (regardless of what is going on externally in their life), and then the weight would start to come off. Since making this important discovery, I have been releasing weight quicker, I appreciate and see the good in even more things in my life. In addition, my ability to bounce back quicker from anything that happens unexpectedly has increased, with increased wisdom on how to turn even challenges into positives that help me transform in a more joyful manner. With all this said, I definitely would say to get this book because it is inspiring, practical, and helps inspire ideas on how to attract joyful change.

Enjoyable Songs From Fall Out Boy

What's this?

This review is from: Believers Never Die - Greatest Hits [CD/DVD] (Audio CD)

This Fall Out Boy Collection is very much put together in a good fashion. You get many of the enjoyable Fall Out Boy songs.

This greatest hits compilation by Fall Out Boy is so good that I think it would be wonderful if they released more music in the future. All the songs in this collection are worth listening to for your music pleasure. However,in my humble opinion, here are my personal top favorite songs that I would recommend that one turn to first for maximum enjoyment:

Thnks fr th Mmrs- this song seems to be about someone that may have had some "soap opera" moments, but they are still memorable ones.

Dance, Dance- A song that appears to be about a person that is attracted to someone, but wants to make sure that the attraction is going to be reciprocated through some type of sign (he makes this clear with the catchy and daring lyrics crawling to bed with me). I love the video to this song, and I felt that lead singer Patrick Stump did a fantastic job in creatively projecting his spirit and emotions in the song. Patrick's vocals are so great that I can see why he was asked to lend his voice for the Gym Class Heroes single "Cupid's Chokehold"

I'm Like A Lawyer With The Way I'm Always Trying To Get You Off (Me & You): this appears to be one of the more romantic songs by "Fall Out Boy". This song appears to symbolize the message that regardless of what happens that anything can be conquered as long as they woke up to the one that means so much to them.

Beat It; This Michael Jackson classic was wonderfully done by Fall Out Boy. I love how Patrick hits really intense notes at certain points of the song such as when he talks about "truth or dare".

The four above mentioned songs are only a sampling of what is available in this collection. I confess that this review is a little partial towards this greatest hits compilation because of the fact that I enjoy hearing Patrick Stump's singing vocals (plus I feel that he is the heart of the band). However, what also makes this cd appealing to listen to is the wide range of lyrics used in the songs, and how the rest of the band members harmoniously create the melodies that contribute to making many of the songs enjoyable (such as in Dance, Dance). I have had this collection since January 2010, and it is still very much enjoyable to listen to. I was still living in Orlando, Florida at this time, and I lived just a couple of miles from the University of Central Florida. I remember eating at one of the places on the UCF campus, and hearing this greatest hits compilation being played (that is how popular this compilation was there). I confess that it is currently unknown to me how popular this compilation is where I live because I have only been living where I am at now since May 2010. However, what I can tell you for sure is that Fall Out Boy's greatest hits are good to listen to and obtain if you enjoy alternative rock from the 2000's.

An Excellent Spice Girls Collection

, February 11, 2011

This review is from: Greatest Hits (Audio CD)

Many of the hits on this cd are very high-quality and good to listen to. I remember being in high school when many of the Spice Girl's songs were played on the radio. Many of these songs are good to listen to when you want to boost your mood and/or put yourself in a mindset to have fun and be carefree. Here are some of their hits that I would recommend listening to first:

"2 Become 1"

"Spice Up Your Life"-this was one of my top favorite songs by them when I listened to them during my high school years.

"Say You'll Be There"

"Wannabe"

"Holler"-I confess that I became more interested in this song recently. "Holler" is a very daring song about someone wanting to give someone so much pleasure that they scream their name (which explains the name of this song).

I feel that a good job was done in selecting some of their best hits. Listening to this cd also gives one a positive nostalgic feeling of some of the British music that was popular to listen to during the 90's and the early 2000's. My overall favorite song on this cd would definitely be "Holler".

I would recommend getting this Spice Girl's Greatest collection if you enjoy pop/dance/pop music.

One Smooth Song

, February 11, 2011

This review is from: Smooth (MP3 Music)

"Smooth" is a very fun and great pop/rock song done beautifully by Carlos Santana. I remember being in my senior year in high school when I heard this song. When I saw the video to this song being played on one of the music channels there was something about it that drew me on(I just wish that I can remember if it was VH1 or MTV). Carlos made the right decision when he selected Rob Thomas of Matchbox Twenty to sing the vocals (Rob has a great singing voice). The reason why I say this is because I noticed that in the music video Rob Thomas really put his spirit and emotion in giving the musical "Smooth" a vibrant life of its own. "Smooth" is a gorgeous song about a man who is willing to change his life to accomodate the woman he loves, and he is asking the woman in his life to make up her mind about him. He makes this clear with the clever and catchy lyrics "so give me your heart, make it real, or else forget about it). I love and enjoy listening to Rob Thomas's vocals in this song. In addition, I was imagining who this song was for, especially when Rob Thomas did a good job of using his voice of emphasizing the lyrics "my Spanish Harlem Mona Lisa" When I found out later on that it was for his wife Marisol Thomas I was very moved and thought that was romantic and heartwarming. I say this because "Smooth" came out in 1999. It is posted online that they met in 1998 and married in 1999. At the time of this writing, they are still married (which I think is so beautiful by the way, may they enjoy more joyful and loving years together). I admit that part of the reason why I still find this song enjoyable to listen to is because I enjoy hearing Rob Thomas's singing (Rob's music and vocals first drew me in with the 1997 Matchbox 20 musical hit "Push"). The best way to choose whether you are going to love this song is if you enjoy music by either Rob Thomas, Carlos Santana, and/or romantic alternative rock songs.

Simply Incredible

, February 10, 2011

This review is from: Simply Irresistible (MP3 Music)

"Simply Irresistible" is a great feel good type of musical track that is my overall favorite by Robert Palmer. In "Simply Irresistible" Robert sings a great tune on how a woman that use to just look good to him has gotten even more beautiful and appealing to him over the years. I love it when he sings the lyrics "she is anything but typical", and the lyrics "she's a craze you'd endorse, she's a powerful force". I personally have learned ways to increase my self-love, and listening to this song is one of the ways I love to do this. I say this because listening to this song helps serve as a fun reminder on why it is important to see the beauty inside of yourself regardless of what is reflected in the outside world. Hearing this song serves as a playful reminder to always work on feeling good from within. "Simply Irresistible" is a great song that is like fine wine that gets better with time (just like his other track "Addicted to Love"). You are going to love listening to this song if you enjoy Robert Palmer's "Addicted to Love" musical track and/or classic rock and 80's music.

Get Down, Make Love

A Talented Nine Inch Nails Take on a Steamy Love Song

, February 10, 2011

This review is from: Get Down, Make Love (MP3 Music)

This song is definitely a title that speaks for itself. However, the lyrics and the music create a perfect musical harmony to make a sexy and steamy Industrial Rock love/very steamy song. The introduction with the male and female voices at the beginning of the song really provides the draw to follow through on listening to it. The introduction starts with a male voice asking a woman "How old were you when you first let a man make love to you?"(this is just part of the steamy intro to the song) This is a sexy and provocative musical track about a man telling a woman that he is going to make love to her as she so desires by making it clear with the following lyrics: "you take my body, I give you heat",. The best way to think of this song is in the same shocking sexiness that is the musical masterpiece called "Closer", but with slightly more toned down lyrics. The lyrics to "Get Down Make Love" by Nine Inch Nails are still wild in a good way, but more radio friendly than "Closer". For example, I grew up in Illinois and I first heard and enjoyed "Get Down Make Love" around the time I was 16 and one of the alternative rock radio stations in Chicago played this during the late night industrial rock time segment. I now have this enjoyable track to own. Yes, I admit that I play "Get Down Make Love" quite frequently because it is an excellent track with high-quality industrial music and unique lyrics (plus I love daring and sexy rock songs). The best way to quickly decide if you are going to like this song is if enjoy the song "Closer" by Nine Inch Nails and/or you are looking for a steamy rock song to add to your playlist.

This review is from: Amateur College Men (Hardcover)

I just recieved this book today, and after looking inside of it I definitely like what I see. The "Amateur College Men" back contains an abundance of catchy pictures. I looked through all of the gorgeous photos in this book within 20 minutes (some people may need more time, and others may take less time with the book). The attractive men on the cover of the book are only an exciting and hot preview of what is in this book. There are other men in this book that are very pleasing to look at as well. I mainly found out about this book title from a recommendation from the Amazon France website (someone sure made an accurate recommendation of what would catch my attention). I say this because I am a college student myself, and the title of the book definitely compelled me to purchase it just this past Saturday. I am very satisfied with my purchase of this book because the book contains many exciting pictures of various males that are easy on the eyes with a well selected variety of physical features. I am lucky to have a wonderful husband who allows me to look at excellent erotic photography books such as this. He playfully teased me when he saw me looking inside the book because he noticed my focused interest in the great photography of "Amateur College Men". The "Amateur College Men" photography is so well-done that even he was curiously glancing at the photos briefly to see why I was enjoying the book. Many of the images are taken outside in what appears to be beautiful sunny weather (an added bonus for those who love the outdoor photography). The other unique feature to this book is that many of the visuals of "Amateur College Men" appear to have been taken in Europe. Once I finished looking at the book I noticed that the book displayed writing that it was printed in the Czech Republic. "Amateur College Men" also has a Berlin, Germany address under the copyright date. Overall, this book is enjoyable to own if you love men, and take pleasure in admiring the sexiness of the male form of very HOT guys.

Sowing The Seeds Of Love (7" Version)

Price: $1.29

Sowing the Seeds of Joy

, February 18, 2011

This review is from: Sowing The Seeds Of Love (7" Version) (MP3 Music)

"Sowing the Seeds of Love" is a musical gem about the bright side to love, and the many themes that it can express. The meaning also seems to be about how being in love can make you a better person, and how this feeling can inspire you to healthfully question some of your own personal viewpoints. You can also listen to this song for either putting yourself in an uplifted state of mind and/or maintaining that state. "Sowing the Seeds of Love" is my favorite Tears for Fears song because it creatively combines both the themes of love and joy to create a positive happiness booster type of musical track. "Sowing the Seeds of Love'' is also one of the rare songs that a person can get a positive meaning out of each listen. For me personally, I definitely pick up on a positive insight each time I hear this cheerful melody, in addition to enjoying it more and more each time I listen to it. The video to this song is very well crafted as well. I watched the musical video to "Sowing the Seeds of Love" on youtube just this morning, and I notice that a person made a comment relating to how beautiful this song is. I have to definitely agree that this song is beautiful. The video is also fun to watch because it is very colorful and has many catchy images (I liked the flower that is used towards the end). The creativity used in this song and video compares (in a good way) to Peter Gabriel's "Sledgehammer" song and video. Please understand that I feel that "Tears for Fears" have a great style all of their own with the "Sowing the Seeds of Love" song and video. I am only expressing the parallel of the great creativity used in "Tears For Fears" work that is highly original to that of Peter Gabriel's magnificent "Sledgehammer" song and video. In summary, I would say to definitely get this song if you like uplifting songs with a creative slant towards the themes of love and happiness.

This review is from: The Story So Far: The Very Best of Rod Stewart (Audio CD)

This greatest hits import collection from Rod Stewart does live up to the title of containing great hits. I grew up listening to many of Rod Stewart's songs on the radio, and I was equally pleased to see many of those hits in this compilation. The following are some of my favorite musical tracks in this compilation that I enjoyed listening to on the radio, and were also found in this compilation:

Have I Told You Lately-this is a very gorgeous and beautiful song about how his lover brings him so much sunshine in his life and the unlimited love that pours out of him as a result.

Sailing:This seems to be a song about having a free spirit.

Love Touch: This is a catchy tune about someone that wants to show their lover the strong desire that they have for them, but they must have the opportunity to do so.

Do Ya Think I'm Sexy: This is a lively musical track about someone who wants to know if they are wanted via a sign. "Do You Think I'm Sexy" is my favorite song in this compilation.

The abovementioend songs are only a sampler of the good tracks that are available on this collection of Rod Stewar's greatest hits. This cd of Rod Stewart's greatest hits is definitely recommended if you enjoy 80's and/or 90's pop, soft rock, and classic rock music.

Rebel Yell (1999 - Remaster)

Steamy Yell

, February 16, 2011

This review is from: Rebel Yell (1999 - Remaster) (MP3 Music)

"Rebel Yell" is a very enjoyable and daring passionate lust song. As per the songfacts website, "Rebel Yell" is basically about a one night stand that is very pleasurable that the lover ends up expressing that they want more. This is also made clear with the following lyrics:

In the midnight hour she cried- "more, more, more"

With a rebel yell she cried- "more, more, more"

In the midniight hour babe- "more, more, more"

With a rebel yell- "more, more, more"

More, more, more.

Obviously, there is more to this gem of a song. Billy Idol really puts alot of his spirit into the song in such an excellent fashion that it is almost like he is telling a very entertaining story that he is simultaneously singing. I admit that I first heard this song when I was a teenager, and I currently still love listening to this song. The guitar riffs and his fantastic singing blend well together with this song to make it a musical track that is fun to listen to multiple times in a row. "Rebel Yell" is also another song to put in a love/lust playlist and/or 80's classic song playlist

Hungry with Passion

, February 16, 2011

This review is from: Hungry Like The Wolf (MP3 Music)

This is a very passionate and high-energy song about a man who wants someone. However, he wants to make sure that his feelings are reciprocated, and he makes this clear with:

Woman you want me give me a sign

And catch my breathing even closer behind

The video to this song is pretty cool. He seems to be on some type of adventure/quest. The chemistry that he had with the model in the music scenes is very believable and well done. I also like the music that was used with this song because the melodies really went good with this song. "Hungry Like the Wolf" is a quality 80's classic song that you can put in your love list and/or 80's classic hit mix.

Wealth of Opportunities

, February 16, 2011

This review is from: Opportunities (Let's Make Lots Of Money) (2001 Digital Remaster) (MP3 Music)

This is a very positive and uplifting song about how there are opportunities that abound if one is open to them. I believe that the main theme of the song is that there are an unlimited abundance of possibilities in creating wealth as long as is aware where to look. This is one of those songs to play for a cheerful boost and/or encouragement to persist and continue to go after your dreams. The video to this song is pretty fun to watch as well. In the video, the members of the Pet Shop Boys are boldy taking steps to achieve their aim of making lots of money. Overall, I would recommend this song as a good mood booster and/or encouragement. "Opportunities" is also good for achieving and/or maintaining a prosperous mindset.

This review is from: The Block [Deluxe Edition] (Audio CD)

This cd is very enjoyable to listen to. I too was very young when New Kids on the Block came to the scene (I was in grade school). My two favorite songs by them from my grade school years are "Step by Step" and "Right Stuff". I remember being in my senior year of high school when the enjoyable melody titled "Give it to You" by Jordan Knight was playing on TV (I too admit that Jordan Knight is my favorite member of the New Kids On the Block group) All of the songs on this cd made getting this cd a worthwhile purchase. However the four songs that personally stood out for me in an exciting and good way are:

Sexify My Love: This is a very catchy and sensual song about two people physically expressing their passion for each other. It is a good song to have in your love playlist all year round.

Lights, Camera, Action: This seems to be a very daring musical track about getting into action for a lustful and physical encounter.

One Song: This song appears to be about developing an attraction for someone at the club, and the attraction ends up being mutual.

My overall favorite song is the very sensual "Sexify My Love". I do admit that I have already played this song multiple times, and I intend to add it to one of my love playlists. I enjoyed their music so much on this cd that I feel that it would be great if many of the songs are played at their concerts, in addition to the music that propelled them to superstardom in the 80's. I have already bought myself a ticket to go to the New Kids on the Block concert this coming June(as an added bonus the Backstreet Boys are performing along with them). I am so excited to be going to the upcoming New Kids on the Block concert regardless if they play the 2008 music along with their 80's classics, but it would be wonderful if they do consider the fans who like both time periods of their music. This cd is worth getting if you enjoy pop and/or dancepop music.

Makes You Feel Like You Are in London

, Feb. 14 2011

This review is from: World Series: London (Audio CD)

This Hed Kandi World Series London edition is very much enjoyable and pleasurable to listen to. This compilation has many songs that are a beautiful blend of trance, dance, and/or chillout. These songs are very pleasurable to listen to, especially because they make you feel like you are having fun and enjoying yourself at a club and/or some other exciting hotspot in London. My favorite overall song on this cd is "You Rock My World" by Ron Carroll featuring Lady. D. The wonderful feature to this compilation is that you get 40 songs divided up into three cds. The first cd has 15 songs and the theme for cd one is for being at a club (this is also the case for cd two, which has 15 songs). The third cd has a catwalk theme and has 10 songs. This is a good compilation to purchase if you enjoy any of the following music genres: dance, trance, and/or chillout.
