27th-Dec-2005 05:31 pm - Top 25 Albums of 2005
Crazy
I'm not going to pretend to be an expert on music, but I know what I like. I remember when I used to be a music snob, but then I started to get old & act like the previous generation, disregarding most of today's music. Except unlike my parents, I actually tried out those new bands & found most of them to be overrated, pretentious, & annoying. But that's just me.

& please understand - like I said before - I'm not an expert on music, & these are just my opinions, as to best tracks etc, & I'm not going to go into great detail about why I love them. You're encouraged to post your own Top.. Whatevers of 2005, be it Albums, Movies, Comics, TV shows, Wrestling PPVs or Matches, Books, whatever. On to probably the most mainstream Top 25 Albums list that will be posted in T5R.
There's probably loads more that I forgot, but Springsteen, the Stones & Coldplay didn't do much for meCollapse )

If anyone ever wants any of these albums, feel free to email me or find me on MSN (check my User Info) & I'll see what I can do for you. Feel free to comment about any you think I may have missed, or some that I should check out, though I am fairly stubborn in my music listening.

stop

Good day all, this is my first post to Top Five Reviews. I'll try to be more fun and creative as i get into it, but in "honor" of the Foo Fighters visit to Calgary tonight(damn i dont have tickets), im posting my top 5 personal favorite Foo songs.

5. Breakout - All about a woman driving you nuts, isnt that just the way

4.. Everlong -  Love this song, and love it more for this one line, "The only thing I’ll ever ask of you
You’ve got to promise not to stop when I say when"

3. Learn To Fly - This one is all about music, the lyrics can be taken many ways if you dont know what its about.  But to me learning to fly, is trying to find a way to make it work with that special someone

2. Times Like These - Fantastic song, learning from the times of your life, isnt that what its all about,

1. I'll Stick Around - This has always been my fav Foo song, mostly cause i love the music, and it was a perfect transition song for Dave Grohl (after This Is A Call) to go from Nirvana, and its a big fuck you to Courtney Love, from what he perceived to be her role in Kurt Cobains death.  "I dont owe you anything"

Honorable mentions go to my favorite cover song ever,  Baker Street, also to Monkey Wrench, My Hero, For All The Cows, and Hey, Johnny Park!

Let me know what your fav Foo songs are.

Foo Fighters - In Your Honour (2005)

In your honour I would die tonight.Collapse )

In Your Honor - Foo Fighters


In Your Honor - The Foo Fighters, 2005Collapse )

hi, i'm lacey, and i'm a first-time reviewer for topfive_reviews. i'm also a foo fighters addict, and i got their newest album today via my roommate (kyzen) who is a computer geek in the highest, most honorable sense of the phrase. i've been looking forward to the release of in your honor since i heard about it in february or march. i even wrote it down in my daytimer. (it's june 14th, for those of you not as interested as i am. as if one could forget the foo fighters.)

i've got another confession to make...Collapse )

overall, i give this album an A-. i would recommend fewer vague, imageless adjectives and cliche phrases ("no one's getting out of here alive"? come on, you kids can do better than that) in the first disk--though the second disk very nearly redeems the whole album's lyrical quality. stronger poetics would raise my grade for this album to an A, maybe an A+. but that's really all i'd recommend. their overall musicianship is right on, and i am thoroughly impressed. and i will buy the cd on tuesday when it comes out, even though i'm poor. and i will buy tickets whenever they come to denver to perform, even though i will still be poor then.
26th-Mar-2005 03:17 am - Top Ten Music Videos
Okay, so you may all be outraged that I have not included some 'classics' from the 80's, like Michael Jackson, Dire Straits, Madonna, et al. But my requirement was that I had to like the song for the video just a little bit in order to include it.

Also, I don't really watch videos anymore, so there's hardly anything 'current' on here.

Because I just couldn't cut it down to five...Collapse )
