Best Of George Michael 15+ ♫ The singer : He was born Georgios Kyriacos Panayiotou on June, 25th 1963 in North London and went to school with Andrew Ridgeley. The duet was knwon as WHAM in the eighties. After they split, George Michael started a solo career. His albums "Faith"; "Listen without prejudice"and "Older" were out before his Best Of. ♪ George Michael & me : (not that I have a particular story about him to tell) He's one ...
...instance) about who I can't remember the first time I heard a song, and which song it was. It's a bit as if George Michael had always been present in the soundtrack of my life. I am not a huge fan, in the sense that I don't have all his albums but I like "Listen without prejudice" and this one very much! ♫ The DVD : Although I bought it only a few months ago, I guess it was out at about the same period as the CD & tape versions of the same ...

Review of Ladies And Gentlemen - The Best Of George Michael (DVD)

Well worth the reunion

Advantages: Eagles + full string orchestra = musical heaven
Disadvantages: I wasn't there to see it live

...as soon as you hear the opening notes of Hotel California, you instantly know they made the right decision. 'Hotel' is the opening track on this extensive live display of musical brilliance from one of the greatest bands of all time, and it's truly a joy to watch.To not only open with 'hotel California' but to perform it acoustically, is truly mesmeric, and will melt the heart of any Eagles fanatic. This sets the benchmark of quality for the rest ...
...and Glenn Frey, combined with the perfectionism of Don Henley, the outcome is destined to be incredible. Barnstorming electric versions of 'life in the fast lane' and 'Take it Easy' subtlely inject life between some of their slower ballads, creating a continiuity and flow to the performance that renders your DVD remote useless - you wont want to skip any of the tracks on here. Standout track however, is 'A New York Minute', a song almost written ...

Shania Twain(Live in Chicago)

Advantages: Wholesome fun and great songs
Disadvantages: A couple of cringe moments

...so years ago the name Shania Twain was always said in the same breath as country music.I was never a fan of country music but when she decided to broaden her horizons and take music to a new level with a mixture of what i can only describe as 'country leanings with a pop music edge i was totally blown away by what this lady has achieved. After hearing a couple of her songs in the charts i was never going to say "That dont impress me much" (excuse ...
...not all of us are shania fans but if you want to feel good and foot tap your way around the bedroom or wherever then this is a must buy for you. Shania Twain live in chicago was one from the 'up' tour from the album of the same name.So if you did purchase the 'up' cd then you will be familiar with the songs. There are 22 songs in the concert and they are as follows... 1.Man! I Feel Like A Woman! 2.Up! 3.Honey,Im Home 4.Shes Not Just A Pretty ...

Review of Shania Twain - Up! - Live In Chicago (DVD)

Queen dvd collection

Advantages: Fun songs and videos
Disadvantages: none

...do the same with the Queen dvd.I dug it out of the archives,had a watch and still enjoyed it as much as i always did.Sometimes it pays to not overplay any music you have as it then tends to become a little boring.It must be a couple of years since i watched this so this is my view on what i consider to be an excellent dvd. The design....... This dvd case is designed in black with the now famous four band members in their traditional 'Bohemian Rhapsody' ...
...was an unusual video by Queen standards but fun nonetheless. The hilarious 'Flash' with its clips from the film never fail to make me chuckle because i think its god awful but that is Queen in a nutshell.Always open to the challenge of pushing the boundaries of the ridiculous. 'We Will Rock You' is of course a great song and has been performed but never bettered by other artists.Had many a hand clapping session to that song when intoxicated i must ...

Review of Queen - The DVD Collection: Greatest Video Hits 1 (DVD)

Feed me, Krelborn, FEED ME NOW!

Advantages: Music, plot, acting, everything
Disadvantages: None

...film version of it. Little Shop Of Horrors was directed by Frank Oz, and features the arrival of a strange and interesting new plant in the failing Skid Row flower shop owned and run by Mushnik. His two employees are the geeky and friendless Seymour and the blonde bimbo Audrey. Other characters emerge as the film progresses, but the main protagonist to these two is the plant, named Audrey II by Seymour. The plant's arrival, just when it seemed ...
...the shop. Initially a tiny little thing, Seymour nurtures it until one day he finds that in order for the plant to grow, there is one thing it needs to be feed more than anything else: blood! What makes this film work is the timing of the music. It is a musical comedy, and as such the musicality must be an attractive prospect. The plot itself is brilliant, and does a lot of the storytelling, but the music fills in the time gaps with ease. The upbeat ...
