"That century's last masterpiece, at the very end of 1999." Reply
"This sounds like classic rock from tom petty & the heartbreakers, a classic rock band uncoincidentally enough. Of course, there is no song comparible to the best in his catalogue, but this is still a solid rockin' effort. What more can you ask of Tom Petty and gang at this point?" Reply

"I wasn't much into their earlier stuff, but my brother played me Quarantine and that was pretty much it. It took a while for some of the slower and instrumental songs to catch on, but with a few listens I came to understand that every song on this album is great." Reply

"Makeba was a South African singer who had a difficult early life, but her strong and attractive singing voice got her attention. She blended African and Western music to great effect. She toured with several singing groups in the 1950s, and on gaining international attention she moved to America ..." [+] Reply
"There was a time back in 1991 when a certain song broke all the records in the UK: It became the longest-ever consecutive stay #1, with an impressive record of 16 weeks. Guess the song? yes, it was '(Everything I Do) I Do it For You'. At the time I was just a little kid. I was given the 'Waking U..." [+] Reply

"Hands Clean hits harder than You Oughta Know... The sucker who slept with her was older, and wanted to keep the relationship secret. Dave Coulier? Some record exec? Either way, he must not have slept well hearing this one. This is actually a decent album - not as blatantly angry as Jagged Little ..." [+] Reply

"When this came out, it had been 8 years since the last AC/DC album. As soon as you hear those opening chords....you KNOW it's AC/DC....and it's like seeing an old friend after a long time apart. AC/DC's style may be simple and basic...but nobody sounds quite like them." Reply

"it's funny with Sinead. the period when that record came out corresponds with its extreme and fundamentalist tendencies. And despite his sometimes strange reactions, these songs have never sounded so sure of it. Sinead is nonconformist, rebellious, she exaggerates .... but this disc is a mix betw..." [+] Reply
