Alexander Klaws - If I'm Not the One
Name: Alexander Klaws
Song: If I'm Not the One
Label: Sony BMG
Released: 2006
Genre: Pop
Style: Ballad, Piano
Language: English
Format: MP3 / 128kbps
Version: Album
Time: 4:07
I posted the cover by Nana Tanimura a while ago, and was right when I thought that it sounded incredibly westernized. Alexander is known for being on the German Pop Idol, but I know nothing else about him. His voice is, theoretically, better than Nana's. But it's so generic and kind of bland. You may say I'm crazy for thinking Nana's voice sounds more interesting. Well, call me crazy. Tanimura's huskier vocals grab me. The arrangement on the Japanese version is also superior. Klaws' seems too borderline CCM for my liking.

Robert Pattinson - I'll be Your Lover Too
Name: Robert Pattinson
Song: I'll be Your Lover Too
Label: N/A
Released: 2008
Genre: Rock
Style: Acoustic, Ballad, Cover
Language: English
Format: MP3 / 128kbps
Version: Demo
Time: 3:40
I'm a little thrown by my odd on and off obsession of this English actor. He's dirty hot and looks severely depressed (who wouldn't be with Twilight on their resume). So, I gave in and listened to some of his music. This is a Van Morrison cover, I believe. If you can ignore the mumbled lyrics and partially shoddy arrangement (it's clearly not finalized), you almost can't help but be swooned by Robert's voice. It's harsh and thick, and barely coherent. Yet it's still stuck in my ears.

Label: Sony
Released: 2008
Genre: Pop
Style: Dance, R&B
Language: Japanese
Format: MP3 / 192kbps
Version: Single
Time: 3:21
Model and actress Meisa Kuroki has a unique look (father is American, mother is Japanese) that really makes you do a double take. She recorded her first official single this year. It was never released physically and was only made available through digital means. "Like This" sounds like a cooled over Namie Amuro track - bouncy and dancing hip-pop. Kuroki's got an average voice, but this type of song isn't really vocally demanding. "Like This" was used as a song for Toshiba's media player, Sportio/W62T.

Label: Elektra, Wea International
Released: 2001
Genre: Hip-Hop
Style: Rap
Language: French
Format: MP3 / 192kbps
Version: Album
Time: 3:12
This song garnered a little popularity outside France when it was featured in the last season of Sex and the City. It's a mellow track guided by the vaguely sensual raps of MC Solaar. The instrumental was produced by Hassan Ansari, and is rooted in French based hip-hop. Nothing dirty south, club or gangsta here.

Song: PROMiSE

Language: Japanese
Format: MP3 / 320kbps
Version: Single
Time: 5:01
Sony has definitely been trying to recruit some new "it" artists, but most of them have barely bleeped on the radar. MiChi was indies for a short while before being picked up by a major label. Her first cut is this effervescent electropop tune aligned with confident and assured vocals. While the song isn't groundbreaking by creative means, it breaks the mold of current solo female J-pop singers and is bracing. Will MiChi stick around for a second single? I'll keep my expectations low just so I'm not disappointed.

Language: English
Format: MP3 / 128kbps
Version: Album
Time: 3:45
If you've seen the early '90s revisioning of the Jetsons movie, you'll probably agree that it's not very good. Aside from better animation, it suffered from the fact that, well, it's The Jetsons. The original cartoon was no Flinstones. The most memorable thing about it was the soundtrack. Namely Tiffany's (who voiced Judy) contributions. This one is the faster paced teenybop pop rock "You and Me". The saccahrine quality along with the electric riffs are made for solo karaoke in my car at night.

Language: French
Format: MP3 / 320kbps
Version: Album
Time: 3:18
Anggun's new album is out this month. I must say, it's... not what I expected. Luminescence was going in a different direction for Anggun - electronic, surreal and a little more accessible to the mainstream. Elevation, on the other hand, is similar, but several tracks have a very noticeable hip-hop influence. Not the dirty south or 'hood variety. More like bass rich, upscale and fanciful hip-hop. No, Anggun isn't spilling rhymes or changing her singing style. The arrangements are just elaborate and lively. "Tentation" is a sample of what I mean - dramatic with strings, and heavy and rhythmic beats.

Language: English
Format: MP3 / VBR
Version: Single
Time: 3:11
Bloodshy & Avant take on the hefty project of recording BoA's first international song. Yes, her staff finally decided to give it a go. Not sure why now, but what's done is done. "Eat You Up" is a poptastic piece of dance fluff that has a beat that will bore into your head. The lyrics are weak, but BoA's thick accent keeps them at bay. Most of BoA's new Japanese songs are mostly miss for me, but I shamelessly like "Eat You Up".

Language: English
Format: MP3 / VBR
Version: Single
Time: 4:10
Battles is an American band that I'm not the most familiar with. It's made up of several former members of other bands, and the lead is Anthony Braxton's son. "Atlas" is a barely coherent track comprised mostly of electrorock. The lyrics are muttered and repetitive, hardly audible. There's an energy throughout this song that just grabs you.

K's Choice is a Belgian duo that is known stateside for the hit "Not an Addict". It's a moody track that's been labeled as a metaphor for love, but it's actually about drugs. The imagery is beautiful, stark and real.

Format: MP3 / VBR
Version: Album
Time: 4:20
My friends and I watched this really compelling yet overzealous documentary called The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters. It was about two guys competing for the highest recorded score ever for Donkey Kong. One of the DVD's special features was 8 bit themed art, backed by some original 8 bit inspired music. One of which was this bass-tastic electro track from an obscure artist named hellphish. It sounds like it's straight out of a vintage video game and really adds something nostalgic to dance music.

Format: MP3 / 320kbps
Version: Single
Time: 3:42
Divine, known for its #1 song "Lately", scored one last top forty cut from their only album. It was a George Michael cover. Michael's presence was already familiar with the Billboard's R&B chart so it's a pleasant surprise for these three girls to give tribute to the king of contemporary blue eyed soul pop. The arrangement is not too distant or remarkable, but is just right. Divine's performance is controlled and rich.

Time: 3:42
MiChi is a newcomer to J-pop. Born in England, MiChi migrated back and forth between there and japan. She's bilingual and has an active role in her songwriting. She released an indie EP in Japan this past summer. It was half covers and half original material. Now, she's signed to Sony and is going to be releasing the single Promise in mid-October. "Fxxk You And Your Money" is an electropop track from the aforementioned album. It samples the 90210 theme song and is a little vulgar at times. MiChi is no squeaky clean J-pop songstress. She's got some flavor and is just getting started.

Style: Musical, Rock
Language: English
Format: MP3 / VBR

Time: 3:34
Oliver & Company was the precursor to Disney's return to musical animated movies, but it wasn't as much of a hit as The Little Mermaid the following year. Still, it has some great songs. Billy Joel scores big with this fun musical number full of energy and soul. It's nowhere as cheesy, lyrically or musically, as most Disney songs nowadays.

Language: English
Format: MP3 / 192kbps
Version: Single
Time: 3:50
The '90s were ripe with boy bands and Backstreet Boys and 'N SYNC dominated. However, "When the Lights Go Out" is such a classic that I cannot deny its wonderful cheesiness. I especially adore that break "rap". If I recall correctly, Shinhwa's "Hey Come On" samples this song just a bit. There were two versions of the song - the British and the U.S. version, which has the rap performed by Abs instead of J. This is the original mix.

Format: MP3 / 192kbps

Time: 3:41
While I don't keep up with most K-pop anymore, I found something about this new song to be intriguing. IU is a fifteen-year old girl with a budding voice, and probably draw similarities to Joo. Her first single is "Mi Ah", a contemporary power ballad fused with strong pop elements. Much like Onerepublic's "Apologize", "Mi Ah" explodes with an electronic chorus seeped in subtle R&B. While you wouldn't expect this from the Lee Soo-Young like sound overall, this track is an emotional and eye opening debut.

[announcement] return
So, I disappeared for about a month or so. I was getting a little frustrated with a visitor who was ruining the experience for me. I added the star ratings just to make it easier for people to "comment". However, someone thought it would be funny and rank every entry with 1 star. It's childish and maybe they didn't mean for it to be so harsh, but it just fueled my lack of interest in pursuing updates.
Well, I'm gonna give it a go again. No ratings as for now. But I would appreciate if people could leave comments.

Language: Japanese
Format: MP3 / 192kbps
Version: Album
Time: 3:59
LISA seems to have won over some floundering fans with her two recent EPs. In J-pop, it's not uncommon for an artist to keep manufacturing the same type of song over and over. LISA is versatile and tries to keep away from that. She's done it all - dance, hip-hop, pop, R&B, rock, ska. Well, LISA has finally jumped on the electronic bandwagon and recorded this scorching electropop song. Most people will write it off as her trying to go eighties, but those people probably also think Tommy february6 is genuine retro. "Leave" is a lofty track with a repetitive progression that will have you bouncing your head. The unheard of indie punk band TRIOL is her backup in the music video, but I am unsure if they helped write "Leave".

Time: 4:50
This signature hit of Whitney's early days just displays that she had so much going for her - a voice and a great set of songwriters. Originally "I Wanna Dance With Somebody" was a slower song, but thankfully someone changed it before the final recording. The mix we all know today is a magical piece of pop with a Caribbean percussion motif.

Duncan Sheik could never replicate the success of "Barely Breathing" in future musical ventures, but he decided to record a more pop album with Daylight. "On a High", a minor hit on the Billboard's adult top forty chart, is indeed more light hearted than singles previous to it. The chorus is incredibly fetching and the composition has a sunny and upbeat demeanor.

Gossip Girl watchers will recognize this track from the episode "Hi, Society" during the ballroom dance scene. It's kind of a sinister sounding song, which another website aptly described as devilish pop. I detect an organ or some kind of air driven instrument, adding a creepy quality to "Secret".

Ringside - Tired of Being Sorry (Radio Edit)
Name: Ringside
Song: Tired of Being Sorry
Label: Flawless Records, Geffen
Released: 2005
Genre: Rock
Style: Indie
Language: English
Format: MP3 / VBR
Version: Single
Time: 3:20
Ringside is an indie duo made up of actor Balthazar Getty and musician Scott Thomas. They've never scored any major hits and are still unheard of to most, but their song "Tired of Being Sorry" has won some international notice thanks to a cover by Enrique Iglesias. His version is more pop sounding and doesn't retain the dark and grainy quality of Ringside's. There's a Spanish sway to the arrangement that makes it enticing, too.

Lucky Soul is a London based indie band. Their sound is cute and innocent, shown clearly by the female lead's higher pitched voice. The vintage pop band sound of "Lips are Unhappy" is full of glee and a winning melody.

Lyrico is the stage name for Harumi Tsuyuzaki. She went by her birth name for her early days as a recording artist, but she switched over to Lyrico in 2001. Off her first album as Lyrico is this very Mariah Carey geared power ballad with westernized vocal theatrics and a dramatic piano score. Lyrico has an impressive, if not too technical, vocal range that many J-pop singers lack.

Boomkat is a sibling duo led by actress Taryn Manning (8 Mile, Hustle and Flow, A Lot Like Love), and backed by brother Kellin. They've never had a big hit, but their debut "The Wreckoning" was a #1 on the Billboard's dance charts. Although Taryn's not the greatest actress, she caught me by surprise with her singing. She's not some powerhouse songstress, but more of a fiery vocalist leaning towards spitfire lyrics much like Nelly Furtado. This song of spurned love is a product of dance pop and hip-hop, and is just of full of passion.

Genre: Rock
Style: Pop, Post-Grunge
Language: Japanese

Version: Single
Time: 4:31
I always found this to be one of the better B-sides from LISA's discography. It's vastly different than most of the songs she's ever done. She takes a little from Shiina Ringo on this dirty pop rock number. It's not the type of ska rock found in "Babylon no Kiseki", but something not as clean or commercial.

Genre: Pop

Language: English
Format: MP3 / 160kbps
Version: Single
Time: 3:59
This is the single remix of Madonna's last single from her third album. It's considered a ballad because of the slower tempo. Although a ballad is technically a song that tells a story, not necessarily because of pace. It's just become accepted now that slower songs are ballads despite lyrics. Anyway, "La Isla Bonita" is a Latin influenced pop song that makes you swoon.

Mai Fukui is a brand new Japanese singer whose first single's title track is being used in the series Koi Zora. "Ai no Uta" is a medium paced song with the workings of your usual melodramatic J-pop ballad. Mai is vocally reminiscent of the singer solo artist ayaka.

Language: Thai
Format: MP3 / VBR
Version: Album
Time: 3:44
The good thing about Thai pop is that most of it is really cheap to buy. The bad thing is that there's little diversity. I finally found an interesting and more original group. La-Ong Fong is a Swedish pop influenced band that debuted in the early '90s. Their last release was an album called Cozy Collection, but some of the tracks may be covers, including this one. Forgive my lack of knowledge since most info about them is in Thai. "Tarng Jai Diew" is cute twee pop rock. Relaxing, soft and adorable.

Version: Single
Time: 4:50
Again, another S.E.S. song. I wasn't sure how to classify this type of track since it's not slow like a ballad or fast and super danceable, and it's pretty void of the R&B seen in their latter works. Still, "Yume wo Kasanete" is a cute song that's perfect for spring - warm and happy. The girls remade the song in Korean, "Kkoom Eul Mo Ah Suh (Just in Love)", on their 4.5 album.

Melanie C's song "I Turn to You" is usually the song most people remember from Bend It Like Beckham, but I think this joyous and positive pop rock song by her on the soundtrack is far better.

Bloodshy and Avant wrote Milian's first single, which barely broke the top thirty stateside. For some reason, Christina's first album wasn't released here, but was a hit in Europe and Japan. "AM to PM" is one of if not her best track. It's a fiery piece of dance pop.

I came across this song mostly because it was produced by m-flo's TAKU. I can usually call a TAKU production in the first five seconds (e.g., anything from Emi Hinouchi's first album, some Crystal Kay tracks), but I was quite surprised at "FRENCH GIRL!!!!!". It's got a serious bass line and it's not the sugar shine pop that is new m-flo.

Ji-Yoon's unique voice took a backseat when she switched labels and let JYP produce her. Not to say she didn't have some songs from her fourth and fifth albums that showed off her vibrato ("Baek Jo" and "Hwan Sang" are good examples). This fleshly pop track has a mature sound to it and it explores Ji-Yoon's vocal prowess in the chorus.

Genki Rockets is a Japanese virtual project group. The voice of the lead singer, "Lumi", is actually composed of several voices (including Rachel Rhodes and Nami Miyahara) and the music videos features a composite to create "Lumi". "Never Ever" is the only ballad off of their first album. It's simply beautiful. At times, I imagine that it's poppy enough for the mainstream, and then the dramatic touches make it suitable for a sad scene of some kind of media. "Never Ever" is sung in English, then Japanese.

Taylor's voice was deep and assured, making some of her not so great songs of the '80s stand out. "Tell It to My Heart" is, though, one of her best to date. It has a kinky beat throughout that makes this single so memorable.

I really miss the magic that went into BoA's older singles. The writers really seemed to have an interest in composing a good track. "Amazing Kiss" was penned by BOUNCEBACK (a duo that has worked with SweetS, Hitomi Shimatani, hiro, Nami Tamaki), but BoA wrote the lyrics for the Korean mix. It's a melancholic piece of semi-dance pop sweetness.

Miyu Nagase is from ZONE, a four member Japanese girl band. She released two singles at the end of 2004 before disappearing until 2007. The first of her two Sony singles was "Just 4 your Luv". The press release was claiming that her solo music would be R&B influenced, but this song is kind of far from it. If anything, it's similar to the dramatic dance pop that Koda Kumi released during her first two albums.
