Music Review #149: "What Hurts The Most"

Today, I will be reviewing "What Hurts The Most" by Rascal Flatts. This song was released in 2006 as part of Rascal Flatts' "Me and My Gang" album. I find it interesting that this song is melancholy. I really like the use of acoustic guitar in this piece. I really like the rhythm in this song. My favorite part of this song is "What hurts the most was being so close and having much to say and watching you walk away. And never knowing what could have been and not seeing that loving you is what I was trying to do." Even though I don't really care for country music, I really like this song. I give this song a ten out of ten.

Music Review #148: "Superstition"

Today, I will be reviewing "Superstition" by The Birthday Massacre. This song was released in 2014 as part of The Birthday Massacre's "Superstition" album. I really like the use of synthesizer and I really like the drumming. I also think that Chibi has a beautiful voice. Rainbow is also a great guitarist. My favorite part of this song is "He says "Intuition is awakening suspicion." He says "My tradition is the art of superstition." I stumbled upon this group earlier this year by accident and I have enjoyed what I have heard. This is a great song. I give this song a ten out of ten.

Music Review #147: "On Top of the World"

Today, I will be reviewing "On Top of the World" by Imagine Dragons. This song was released in 2012 as part of Imagine Dragons' "Night Visions" album. I really like the upbeat sound to this song. I also really like the tempo and rhythm. My favorite part of this song is the part when they sing "And I know it's hard when you're falling down and it's a long way up when you hit the ground. Get up now, get up, get up now." This is one of those songs that you just want to keep playing because it is that good. I really like this song. I give this song a ten out of ten.

Music Review #146: "What Do You Mean?"

Today, I will be reviewing "What Do You Mean?" by Justin Bieber. This song was released as a single of August 28, 2015. Before I get started, I am not a Justin Bieber fan whatsoever. I really like the use of piano in this song. I also like the lower instrumentation in this song because I like the way that it makes the song sound. In a way, I think this song makes you think about your love life now or your love life in the past or future. Also, this song is definitely very catchy. Even though I don't like Justin Bieber, this is still a very solid song. I give this song a ten out of ten.

Music Review #145: "Booyah"

Today, I will be reviewing "Booyah" by We Are Loud and Sonny Wilson. This song was released in 2013 as part of the album "FG Tendances Electro 2014." I really like the use of electric music in this song. I also like how Sonny Wilson has a reggae-sounding voice. I also really like the rhythm and I find this song very catchy. This song was used by the Philadelphia Flyers as their goal song last season and Pittsburgh Pirates' shortstop Jung-ho Kang uses it as his walk up tune. I really enjoy this song. I give this song a ten out of ten.

Music Review #144: "Animal"

Today, I will be reviewing "Animal" by Def Leppard. This song was released in 1987 as part of Def Leppard's "Hysteria" album. I really like the guitar throughout this song. I also like the rhythm. My favorite part of this song is this: "I gotta feel it in my blood whoa oh. I need your touch, don't need your love whoa oh." This is a great song. I give this song a ten out of ten.

Music Review #143: "Macarena"

Today, I will be reviewing "Macarena" by Los del Rio. This song was released in 1994 as part of Los del Rio's "A mi me gusta" album. This is a song that is played at practically every dance and big party. I like the use of electric music in this song. I also think the rhythm makes this song very catchy. There are a few things about this song that I do not like. I think the female's voice is very nasally. I also don't like how this is a song that many children dance to yet there are a multitude of sexual references in this song. Other than that, it is an okay song. I give this song a seven out of ten.
