Music Review #136: "Touch Me I'm Going To Scream Part 2"
Today, I will be reviewing "Touch Me I'm Going To Scream Part 2" by My Morning Jacket. This song was released in 2008 as part of My Morning Jacket's "Evil Urges" album. I really like the use of electric instrumentation in this song. I also really like the bass guitar and I really like the rhythm in this song. I go nuts when this song gets to the end. I saw these guys live last month and it was a great concert. They performed this song before they left the stage and had their encore. It was great live. I really like this song. I give this song a ten out of ten.

Music Review #135: "Rooster"
Today, I will be reviewing "Rooster" by Alice In Chains. This song was released in 1992 as part of Alice In Chains' "Dirt" album. I think it is very interesting how the song has a mysterious sound at the beginning. I really like the opening guitar riff. I have always been a big fan of the duo consisting of Layne Staley and Jerry Cantrell. The bass guitar in this song is also great. Compared to other songs by Alice In Chains, this song is relatively mellow. I really like this song. I give this song a ten out of ten.

Music Review #134: "Enter Sandman"
Today, I will be reviewing "Enter Sandman" by Metallica. This song was released in 1991 as part of Metallica's "Metallica" album. I really enjoy the guitar solo at the beginning and I like how the song transitions into heavy. I also think that Lars Ulrich does an awesome job with his drumming in this song. This is a song that is commonly used at sporting events. I have heard this song at numerous Penguins games I have attended. Also, the North Allegheny football team uses this song when they enter the field. I really enjoy this song. I give this song a ten out of ten.

Music Review #132: "Worth It"
Today, I will be reviewing "Worth It" by Fifth Harmony featuring Kid Ink. This song was released this year as part of Fifth Harmony's "Reflection" album. I think this song has a really funky beat to it. I also think that the use of saxophone is interesting. I think that all of the members of Fifth Harmony have great voices. My favorite part of the song is this: "Uh-huh, you see me in the spotlight. Ooh I like your style." This song is also very catchy. Even though I really don't listen to this kind of music, this song is pretty solid. I give this song a ten out of ten.

Music Review #131: "Don't Bring Me Down"
Today, I will be reviewing "Don't Bring Me Down" by Electric Light Orchestra. This song was released in 1979 as part of Electric Light Orchestra's "Discovery" album. Right off the bat, I really enjoy Bev Bevan's drumming. I also really like the guitar in this song. The one part of the song that stands out is the repeat. During this section, I really like the synthesizer and the deep guitar playing. This is a song that can put you out of a bad mood. I have always enjoyed this song and still do to this day. I give this song a ten out of ten.

Music Review #130: "Everybody Talks"
Today, I will be reviewing "Everybody Talks" by Neon Trees. This song was released in 2012 as part of Neon Trees' "Picture Show" album. I really like the guitar and the drums in this song. The bass guitar in this song is also great. I also think that Tyler Glenn has a really good voice. I saw these guys two years ago, and I did not know what to expect. That was a solid show that they put on. This song was really good live. I give this song a ten out of ten.
