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.

Music Review #139: "Mr. Brightside"

Today, I will be reviewing "Mr. Brightside" by The Killers. This song was released in 2004 as part of The Killers' "Hot Fuss" album. Right off the bat, I really like the guitar riff at the beginning of the song. I also really like the bass guitar and drums throughout the entire song. My favorite part of the song is this: "Jealousy, turning saints into the sea. Swimming through sick lullabies. Choking on your alibis. But it's just the price I pay. Destiny is calling me. Open up my eager eyes cause I'm Mr. Brightside." This is an awesome song. I give this song a ten out of ten.
