Sweet Sweet Music

Advantages: Funny, Intellegent, great Acting, Moving
Disadvantages: May Not Be Your Thing

...of little or no merit to a serious movie goer - but this film embodies everything that is good about the genre... its sweet, emotional, intellegent and actually has something to say about growing-up, learning to trust and finding solice in the most unlikely of places. And yes it follows the well beaten path and yes you may know whats going to happen and when ? but its done with such amount of humanity and charm (and Barrymore and Grant are so unbeliveably excellent together) that you just wont care... because you?ll be too wrapped up in the melodic whimsy of it all. First and foremost Music and Lyrics is a film about romance and how you find it in the strangest and most unlikely of places. It completely succeeds as a romance because the central relationship is surprisngly mature and unhollywood. The two leads feel like real people...

Sweet Music and Great Lyrics!

Advantages: Great story, good actng, good music
Disadvantages: Hugh Grant's vocals are average

...This is a film which I have wanted to see for some time but never really got around to it. Hubby made the last film choice which was shocking so this was my choice and I thought he would not like it is it is a chick flick but I was completely surprised when he actually enjoyed all of it. The film is about Alex Fletcher who was in a famous pop group from the 1980?s but in the present day he is struggling to keep his fame and music contacts. He is shocked when his manager tells him that the latest pop sensation is wanting him to write her a song , Alex thinks this could be his big break back into the music scene so sets about writing one. He is in his apartment when he gets a visit from Sophie Fisher who is calling to water the plants as the usual girl is on holiday. As Alex and a friend are trying to write some lyrics she is...

Three Cheers for Sweet Music!

Advantages: Punk, Great Band, Raw Talent,
Disadvantages: Could be longer?

...Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge - My Chemical Romance -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My Chemical Romance are a quintet band from the US that play music of the punk genre. The band is a unique mix of Funeral For a Friend, Avenged Sevenfold and The Ramones with a heavy Emo twist, and bears a heavy resembelence to the songs from band "A Fire Inside". Punk-vamp-goths second album, "3 Cheers for Sweet Revenge" has rocketed them to fame over here in the UK, with them scooping 2 awards at the Kerrang Awards, 1 being "Best Album". I saw this in my local music shop. The artwork on the front of the album hugeley attracted me, it was a cartoon of a couple about to kiss, however the females head appears to have been sewed back on and they are both bleeding. Anyway, having purchased this...

BOSE: Music for the soul

Advantages: Great sound quality, perfet at loud volumes, just in general FANTASTIC

Review of Bose SoundDock Digital Music System

Bose SoundDock Digital Music System Review

Advantages: Superb Sound, Very Loud, Ideal for Ipods
Disadvantages: not go to travel with, Extremely Expensive

...Bose SoundDock Digital Music System I happened to get this as a gift and it turned out to be quiet interesting Summary: This dock is used mainly for ipod and allows you to connet mp3 players to it and listen to high quality music via speakers. It is idle for homes and small gatherings, although I would not run a party off these. Pros: This system has terrific sound and can go very load despite its relative small size. As with almost all Bose speakers the quality is amazing, so long as the source you are playing it from is high quality it will allow the speakers to each its potential. I have a surround sound Bose set up in one of my rooms but now prefer to use this product as it is very simple to operate. Just plug the mp3 player in and press play and your set. Can't get much simpler. It also runs off a wall...

Wii music

Advantages: Learn about instruments
Disadvantages: Not interesting enough for me

...I love my Nintendo Wii and love playing new and different games on it. I recently played the Wii Music but unfortunately this was one game that I really did not like. Wii music was released in 2008 and allows players to simulate playing with real musical instruments. You use either the Wii remote or the nunchuk to play the instruments. THe disappointment for me was that the instruments were just not realistic enough. For example, I love Wii Sports because I think the tennis, bowling and actually all the games are really realistic and it feels like you are actually there playing the game. With the Wii Instruments it did not feel like you had a real instrument in your hands and also the Mii characters on the screen just did not react well to the movements. It was more of a chore trying to play the instruments and I gave up pretty soon...

SWEET DARLING

Advantages: sweet smelling long lasting scent
Disadvantages: too cheap smelling if ou use too much

...Sweet Darling is a fragrance which was launched by Kylie Minogue in August 2007; following the success of her first perfume which was named Darling. As well as the Sweet Darling perfume you can also purchase the complimentary bath and body products such as the shower gel and shimmering body lotion which both have the same gorgeous sweet scent as the perfume. The complimentary bath and body products help to layer the scent of the perfume upon your skin therefore increasing the longevity of the scent. People who have dry or oily skin and find that the scent of perfumes don't really last on their skin may benefit from using the complimentary bath and body products before applying the perfume; as this would give the scent a base to layer itself upon therefore increasing the longevity of the scent. Everyone's skin types are different...

Nokia 5800 touch screen music phone

Advantages: Quick and easy to use
Disadvantages: Can get damaged easily

...The 5800 XpressMusic is a revolution for Nokia with it being the first touch screen phone produced by the manufacturer. With its slim lined shape it is an easy phone to hold and to use. The stylus being made of plastic makes the phone as light as possible and easy to hold and to use with the screen. The back of the phone can be removed without out fuss to get at the battery and the SIM card which is slotted into the side of the phone but only removable by removing the back and the battery. The Nokia 5800 takes a micro SD memory card that can go up to 16GB in size that also slots into the side of the phone that the SIM goes in. The general use of this phone is simple and to task with many shortcuts through menus including the 4 buttons on the front of the phone one of which opens a shortcut menu for media applications including music...

Review of Nokia 5800 XpressMusic

nokia 5800 express music, a great phone!

Advantages: so many great features and looks great!
Disadvantages: took me a while to work out where the sim card went! but thats probably just down to me, lol

...cool, it shows you where you are and your able to find local services on the maps, like garages and car parks. Really cool! I also like the way you are able to cut together to video clips and add a soundtrack and then you can upload it to the web! The video and pictures are really clear and colour perfect. You can load these to the computer or show them through your tv. The mp3 ringtones are crystal clear in sound, and the headphones you get with the phone are good too. Your also able to plug your phone into the computer and download music to your phone. The menu display is good and its easy to find what you want. It comes with three games, bounce touch, a guitar game and a car racing game, all good but takes a while to get the hang of the touch screen with the games. You get earphones, a extra stylus, a plecktrum (to use instead...

Review of Nokia 5800 XpressMusic

A Wii bit musically challenged

Advantages: See Pros in review
Disadvantages: See Cons in review

... Wii MUSIC I think that Wii Music is a tricky game to review. When I purchased it for my son at Christmas, I visualised a Christmas with all the family joining in and enjoying the game, somehow that didn't really materialise. I can't really decide exactly what Wii Music is - is it a game, or is it a music sim? For anyone who is looking for a game like Guitar Hero they will be disappointed. I think many people thought that this game would teach them how to play an instrument but that is not what it is about, Wii Music is actually about the joy of making music. The emphasis seems to lie in having a good time, at the expense of everything else. Whatever you do, you're never told that you did something wrong or given any negative comments at all. What the game actually does is to the Nintendo Wii's motion...
