GIVE A LITTLE MORE
IN MY IPOD?: YES
THIS SONG DIDNT DESERVE TO FLOP. ITS A GOOD SONG, IT
JUST DOESN'T SOUND VERY MAINSTREAM. THE DRUM BEATS
AND THE SULTRY CROONING ARE THE THINGS THAT
GIVE THIS SONG LIFE. |
| ALICIA KEYS
TRY SLEEPING WITH A BROKEN HEART
IN MY IPOD?: NO
ALICIA SOUNDS SO GOOOOD IN THIS SONG.
SHE'S ON A TOTALLY DIFFERENT LEVEL WHEN SHE SINGS
BALLADS.  |
| EMINEM
NOT AFRAID
IN MY IPOD?: YES
AUTHENTIC EMINEM. AT HIS BEST WHEN ANGRY.
HIS SECOND OF THREE APPEARANCES ON THE CHART. |

MARCHIN' ON
IN MY IPOD?: YES
I JUST LOVE THE BEAT OF THIS TRACK ESPECIALLY THE PATRIOT
(MUSIC VIDEO) REMIX. AND THE POSITIVITY OF THE
MESSAGE OF THE SONG --- EXCELLENT. |

DYNAMITE
IN MY IPOD?: YES
THIS GUY HAS SURELY CREATED HIS SPOT ON THE MAP OF
THE US MAINSTREAM MUSIC THIS YEAR. HE JUST NEEDS TO
CONTINUE MAKING CATCHY DANCE MUSIC LIKE THIS
ONE, AND HE'S GONNA DO FINE. |
 | THE SCRIPT
SCIENCE AND FAITH | BEST TRACK/S: IF YOU EVER COME BACK, EXIT WOUNDS
DEAD MAN WALKING, NOTHING
WORST TRACK/S: WALK AWAY
|
 | FOR FANS OF THE SCRIPT, THEY'VE DONE IT AGAIN. "SCIENCE AND FAITH" IS ALL ABOUT MUSIC THAT CUTS THROUGH THE FLESH AND STICKS IN THE HEAD. AN ALBUM TWO YEARS IN THE MAKING AND TAILORED TO GIVE THE SAME MUSH EFFECT AS THE PREVIOUS ALBUM WHILE ADDING IN A FEW NEW MUSICAL STYLES.
THE ALBUM CONTAINS 10 TRACKS OF BREAK-UPS, MAKE-UPS, SOME UNEMPLOYMENT, AND APPARENTLY, MORE BREAK-UPS. "FOR THE FIRST TIME" IS A NARRATION OF LOST LOVE AND UNFORTUNATELY, LOST JOB AS WELL. THERE IS NO DOUBT WHY THEY CHOSE "NOTHING" AS THE SECOND SINGLE, IT HAS THAT GREAT APPEAL TO OLD AND NON-FANS. THE CHORUS WHICH IS ABOUT A DRUNK MAN CONFESSING HIS HEARTACHES, AS ALWAYS IS THE HIGHLIGHT OF THE SONG, IT WOULD GIVE THAT OH-THIS-PART-IS-SO-COOL-BUT-ITS-SO-AWWWW-SWEET-IMMA-SING-TO-MY-FRIENDS-FIRST-BEFORE-THEY-HEAR-IT-ON-THE-RADIO FEELING.  THE SONG IS EPIC AS HEAVEN AND HELL COMBINED. 
OTHER TRACKS THAT CONTRIBUTE TO THE GREATNESS OF THE ALBUM ARE "IF YOU EVER COME BACK" (THE BEST SONG ON THE ALBUM) AND "LONG GONE AND MOVED ON," TWO SINCERE TRACKS THAT SHOW A LIGHTER SIDE OF THE BAND. THE TRACKS CONTAIN SIMPLE AND FUN MELODIES, BUT THE UNASHAMED LYRICS OF LOVE AND THE REPETITION OF POWERFUL CHORUS LINES GIVES THESE SONGS HOOK. "EXIT WOUNDS" AND "DEAD MAN WALKING" ARE TWO OF MY FAVORITE SONGS IN THE ALBUM WHICH AGAIN HAVE CHORUSES THAT MAKE YOU UNLEASH THE EMOSHIT MARTYR IN YOU - WHO WOULDNT FALL FOR CHORUSES THAT GO "And I'm falling through the doors of the emergency room, can anybody help me with these exit wounds" and "Already broken, already gone; Already know you're moving on; I'm a breathing, talking, dead man, walking?" THEY SHOULD RELEASE "IF YOU EVER COME BACK." ITS GONNA BE 2011'S SONG OF THE YEAR.
IF THERE'S SOMETHING LACKING IN THIS ALBUM, IT IS THE BAND'S OVER-ALL PROGRESSION --- THEY STICKED TO THE SAME TRIED AND TESTED FORMULA, WHICH ON ONE SIDE IS GOOD TOO, I'M NOT YET TIRED OF HEARING THIS TYPE OF MUSIC ESPECIALLY FROM SUCH A DISTINCT AND TALENTED BAND LIKE THE SCRIPT. |
