Release Date October 28, 2008
Absolutely great! Pink shows in this cd that she can sing very well.

I think that this one is maybe a little bit more calm than her previous cds, but better. And it is very emotionnal. Pink did good job with this one.

808s And Heartbreak

CD-Charts > Music > R
by: Kanye West

Release Date November 24, 2008
What surprised me most about Kanye's new album is not how much I initially liked it, but ultimately how much I ended up loving it with repeated listens. Still, it must be said : 808s & Heartbreak will definitely divide fans-- auto-tune will immediately turn people off, and many will yearn for his distinguished usage of sped-up soul samples. But those of us who look past his traditions and conventions may find something hauntingly tragic and beautiful. Personally, I think 808's & Heartbreak is a full-blown masterpiece based on love, loss, and heartbreak-- capturing dark aspects of life that essentially everyone can relate to. "Graduation" couldn't pull off such emotion, but of course, it was never meant to, since it was mostly a celebration ... Read More:

I had never heard of this lady gaga before. I was out shopping and heard the Just Dance song and that was it for me, I loved it. Try to sit still when listening to Poker Face

19

CD-Charts > Music > R
by: Adele

Release Date February 05, 2008
Be prepared to be captivated by the amazing vocal of ADELE.
The truly unique new artist releases her debut album, "19", citing influences that of Jill Scott, Etta James and Amy Winehouse.
The album "19" talks about love and being at the age of 18 and 19 and features 12 very frank tracks that spread the much-fancied songbird's calamitous love life bare.
It's a confident and striking collection, brutally honest and extravagantly revealing.
Pitched midway between the girl power of Natasha Bedingflield and the dark, destructive songcraft of Amy Winehouse, "19" is great, but at times a little exhausting.
It offers brilliant tracks like "Chasing Pavements", "Hometown Glory", "Daydreamer", "Make You Feel My Love", "Melt My Heart To ... Read More:

Rockferry

CD-Charts > Music > R
from: Polydor

Release Date May 13, 2008
You would think that Duffy is one of those artists spawned from Amy Winehouse's transatlantic success, however Duffy, now 23, grew up in remote north Wales, listening to her mother's modest record collection and building up a small following of fans when, at 19, she was discovered by "60Ft Dolls" Richard Parfitt, who brought her to the attention of Jeanette Lee (once of PiL) at Rough Trade, she in turn hooked her up with Bernard Butler (Suede), Steve Booker and Jimmy Hogarth, who 'helped' write this album, so, in a every sense her debut album, "Rockferry", has been more than three years in the making.
This debut by the 23-year-old Welsh singer Aimee Anne Duffy is not so much an album as a museum.
She's been hailed as the sound of 2008 but really she's ... Read More:

Spirit

by: Leona Lewis

Release Date April 08, 2008
What a treat! Leona's voice is amazing. She has such strong vocal control and ease, I could listen to her all day long. In addition to her stunning voice, the songs in this album are top-notch too - in both lyrics and sound. My favorites would have to be "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face", "Footprints in the Sand", "Yesterday", "Better in Time"... Honestly though, this is the one cd I actually listen to all the songs and don't just skip to one or two. It's truly stunning. Hope you enjoy as much as I have!

Keep It Simple

CD-Charts > Music > R
by: Van Morrison

Release Date April 01, 2008
The ever-enduring crooner returns with a collection of stripped-back, simple songs diverging how it feels to be reaching the twilight of life. Yet Van Morrison keeps all the controlled energy of someone who still has something to pass on to the world.
"Keep It Simple" is a mainly bluesy affair. He's returned to the usual mixture of autobiographical fare and the kind of mix of jazz, folk, blues, country and soul that may be chock-full of lyrical cliche but is always lifted by a voice that really hasn't deteriorated much in the last twenty years. Let's face it: the blues wouldn't be the blues without it's lyrical template. It's the way it's sung that matters, and Van is still peerless in this respect.
Husky, slurred, simple yet honest, the album is one enduring ... Read More:
