Happy birthday, Jimi Hendrix! Watch The Wind Cries Mary vs Muse video

Jimi Hendrix

With a special occasion like Jimi Hendrix’s birthday (27 November 1942), I thought it apropos to scroll through YouTube videos and look for something unique to post.

Justin Timberlake FutureSex/LoveShow review

Justin Timberlake

For some, it’s not cool to like Justin Timberlake. For others, he’s the one. The Prince of Pop. The ‘it’ guy. The more singles that Justin Timberlake releases, the more he’s growing on me. His voice, the harmonies, the feel of the mix and the production on his songs are quality …

Brad Paisley “Letter To Me” single from 5th Gear, review + watch video

Brad Paisley - 5th Gear

Brad Paisley has released his latest single, “Letter To Me” off of his album ’5th Gear’. It’s about what he would say to himself at age 17 if he could write a letter to himself today.
