Not the usual Daniel O'Donnell type of thing

Advantages: If you love 60s music you will love this
Disadvantages: Well my husband would say "Daniel O'Donnell" but ...

...Hang on dont pass by just because it is Daniel O'Donnell. If I tell you my Adult children even asked me what am I playing instead of their normal comment of "oh Mum turn that off and have some decent music on" and didnt tell me to turn it off you will have guessed that this is one of the better Deniel O'Dolnnell cds in fact I think it is his best. It is called the Jukebox Years and says it is 20 miore Blue Jeans Classics but I must admit that I remember different singing artist singing most of the records and you will probably remember a more modern singer singing them as most are now coming around again as my family knew most of them as I do.. This is my first CD review so I hope you will bear with me and be kind. In brackets is the artist I remember singing it. just thought you might want to know! 1. Hello Mary Lou...

Review of Jukebox Years, The (20 More Blue Jeans Classics) - Daniel O'Donnell

Daniel O' Donnell goes pop...

Advantages: Easily available
Disadvantages: May not appeal to non-fans

.... That'll Be The Day Some of these songs I never liked to start with eg tracks 1, 6, 7 and 14 so I wasn't likely to enjoy them on this album. I like the rest of the tracks. However, "I'm A Believer", "Daydream Believer", "Sweet Caroline" and in particular "Come On Over To My Place" are my favourites. That last track is spoiled somewhat as it still reminds me of the old "Wimpy" advert but never mind. I love "Knock Three Times" but much like the others, I liked the originals as well. The album cover sees Donald in a rather fetching leather jacket, sitting in a mock 1950s American diner. The advert for this album had the same set up. Yes, it's Daniel O Donnell, and yes, it's not very original but music doesn't always have to be inspirational or ground-breaking. This will stir a few memories from people who grew up during those...

Review of Jukebox Years, The (20 More Blue Jeans Classics) - Daniel O'Donnell

Chris O'Donnell eat you heart out.

Advantages: Chris O'Donnell and Male castings
Disadvantages: running time

...What a remarkable film! Batman forever is one of my all time favourites and a must buy. Every time I watch this DVD I seem to enjoy it more! Batman forever is the third batman film. The plot of the film consists of Batman having to fight off two villains, the riddler and two face. The riddler is a technical wizard who invents brain sucking T.V and two face is a guy scarred down one side by a acid attack, leaving him with two faces and two personalities. While batman is trying to fight the two bad guys, he also ends up falling for the lovely Dr Chase Meridian, a sexy abnormal psychologist. However when two face kills the family of a young acrobat, he vows revenge, leading to the ever so fit Chris O?Donnell teaming up with batman. The director is Joel Schumacher. He is not one of my favourite directors as I have not really heard...

Review of Batman Forever

FREE DVDs

Advantages: Free trial, large choice, post included,new realeases
Disadvantages: see review

...I like movies and I like freebies, so when you get offered both in one swoop you?re bound to accept! I used my two week free trial with this company and remained with them for a couple of monthsbefore moving on to try many other companies free trials (and winning a new DVD player on Tesco DVD rental site on their free trial offer). I then had an email from DVDs 365 asking me to go back, and offering me a free DVD if I did so. I had just left Tesco (with my new DVD player) so I chose to go back with them. ∆◊◊ THE SERVICE THEY OFFER ∆◊◊ Basically it?s like going to a video shop and hiring films on DVD, except you don?t pay for each film you chose ? rather a monthly fee for which you can watch as many movies as you can fit in, for us this is usually around 8 a month (2 a week usually weekends...

Growing Up with Chris

Advantages: Loveable and good songs
Disadvantages: The album is very limited

...I can't say it is hard to get confused when it comes to this youngsters album, as Chris Brown released his debut album in late 2005, the album would appear with different versions and different covers (as highlighted by the wide variety of albums by the artist to review). All versions of the album went by the self-titled name of 'Chris Brown' however the track amounts vary from 8 to 15. For the purposes of this review, I shall be reviewing the eight track version of the album. Welcome to Chris Brown's world. When Chris Brown first burst on to the scene it would be with the single 'Run It', that is the first track on the album if you do not count the Intro (See The Light). Run It was an immediate success and truly was the song of the summer for 2005 and gave Chris Brown the fanbase he so wanted. Chris was himself only 16 at this point...

Get It Or He'll 'Chris Brown' You

Advantages: Lots of big tunes
Disadvantages: A couple take a while to get into

...Released in 2007, ?Exclusive? was the second album from the R&B singer Chris Brown. I found him working with more big names in this field as the likes of Swizz Beatz, The-Dream and Scott Storch all got in on it and helped in re-creating the buzz which came with his debut, in which he was seen to bring Pop hits such as ?Gimme That, ?Yo? and ?Run It!?. 1. ?Throwed? The album begins well as the singer kicks a lively tune to get the thing going as he uses Go-Go influences in order to get into an energetic tune to hype up the listeners as he introduces what this sophomore album has to offer his fans. It is a big one and placed perfectly in order to get the most out of it. **Five Stars** 2. ?Kiss Kiss? This was a monster single from the album, in which it has Breezy teaming up with another big name in the R&B game as T-Pain shows what he...

Surprising Picture Quality - Panasonic DVD-S54

Advantages: Incredible picture quality when compared to my old non-upscaling player with a scart lead
Disadvantages: Sometimes disc drive can be really noisy when DVD's initially load.

...At first I wasn't convinced by up-scaling DVD player technology but was persuaded after reading an article in "What Hi-Fi? Sound and Vision" magazine. Unable to afford a Blu-Ray player my sister and I bought the Panasonic DVD-S54 to match our parents brand new Panasonic TX-32LZD80 LCD television as their Christmas 2008 present. Admittedly it was a slightly selfish purchase as we both live at home and wanted to watch DVDs on the big new TV ourselves! We bought the player from the electrical retailer Comet for about £100 just before Christmas so there were no discounts applied. On Christmas day when opened we found a relatively small box tightly packed with the player in polystyrene packaging. All the components such as cables, remote and manuals were well presented in their own protective plastic bags, to keep them protected. The player...

Review of Exclusive - Chris Brown

Chris and friends.

Advantages: This is cool music
Disadvantages: It may take a few plays.

...For his 1997 release Chris Botti assembled the pretty much the same stellar cast of musicians as he used of his previous recordings. This album has 9 tracks that are new and 1 previously released song that appeared on the soundtrack to the film “Caught” this being the song with Jonatha Brooke on vocals called “Forgiven”. To begin this collection the instrumental track “The steps of Positano” starts the album off, this has a familiar feel to it as just like his previous 2 releases the music is all atmosphere, this is perfectly conveyed by the brushed cymbal playing of Jerry Marotta and the keyboard skills of Paul Joseph Moore (of the “Blue Nile” fame) and Mr Botti himself who plays the same themes as the keyboards but with sensuous trumpet playing. The next track is a song co...

Review of Midnight Without You - Chris Botti

Chris Botti & friends?

Advantages: It's real music....
Disadvantages: Region 1 only

...During a 10-week lay- off while on tour with Sting for his "Brand new Day" album, the featured solo artist on the tour Chris Botti rented a house in the Hollywood Hills to write and record his "Night Sessions" album, 4 weeks to write and 6 weeks to record and mix. With this short period of time Chris said, " he felt energized by the challenge" he asked his friend Kipper (who won a Grammy for his production on Sting's album Brand New Day) to co-write and produce, they stated to write and at the end of the writing sessions only recorded the material as the lights of the L.A. basin began to glow and as the sun set and only stopped when the sun came back up the next morning. On December the 3rd 2001 Chris Botti took to the stage of the "EL REY" theatre in L.A. to celebrate the release of the "Night Sessions" album, his first release...
