Advantages: This album is a highly experimental release: Ani plays around with many different styles to create a widely varied presentation of her abilities.
Disadvantages: There are a couple of "weaker" tracks towards the end: They are softer than the rest. However, this DOES make for a good closure, so I can't complain.

...;I will think before I act, I will think twice / Just let me see your eyes…” – a simple plea on Ani’s part – she wants to see more of the person that she is writing about. “I was dizzy and giggly, flirting like a twelve year-old girl…” Oh yeah – this is cutesy at its worst, but yet ANOTHER dimension to Ani’s musical talents at its very best. I definitely recommend that you listen to this track at least three times before you pass judgment on it, otherwise you might miss out on a solid, uncompromising and unique song. One of my favorite tracks is “Pixie” – with a helluva cool snare drumroll introducing the electric guitar. “I’m a pixie, I’m a paper doll, I’m a cartoon / I’m a chipper cheerful free for all and I light up...

Advantages: Some super catchy, hugely fun Pop Punk tracks.
Disadvantages: A couple of tracks fail to deliver.

...to the 'Beating Heart Baby' video from Head Automatica. This does not in any way effect the enjoyment that can be gained from listening to the track of course, it is just a side issue that niggles me a little. 'Generation' is by far my favourite of all the tracks on this album. Despite this, I still find the lyrical choices a little questionable at times. The lyric of 'Hey ho! Let's go!' for instance merely makes me think 'You're not The Ramones and this is no Blitzkrieg Pop'. The lyric is repeated many a time throughout the tracks duration and although there is no doubt that it is powerful, it's more than a little plagiarised. As I say though; it's a great track and is by far my favourite from the album. There's something immensely catchy about this one, and not just as a result of the stolen lyric either. The guitars come across with a great... Read review

Advantages: Some great songs, good booklet
Disadvantages: Some of the songs are similar

...'s to break up, She was stronger. All my friends say, please don't love her. What did i gain? Now i miss her so." The CD booklet is black on the outside and says "Parental Advisory Explicit Lyrics" on because of the bad language used in some of the songs. It has images of a plane, a pair of trousers (pants) and a jacket to symbolise "Take Off Your Pants And Jacket"- the name of the album. Inside the booklet are various funny photos of the band dressing up and messing around. The booklet also contains lyrics to all of the songs which is great (except for the last track), I hate CD booklets that don't print the lyrics in them. A downside is that for me a few of the songs aren't that recogniseable and I find that after not listening to the CD for a while, I forget which songs are which because a couple of them sound quite similar! Overall... Read review

Advantages: A better album than the last, good lyrics and music
Disadvantages: Some may find offensive in places

...chorus. I do think that whenever the words ‘forever’ are in a song it may have some meaning, which is true here. A bloke scared sh*tless that things are going to go wrong on this date, but wanting the night to last ‘forever’ with his date. "I dread the thought of our very first kiss, a target that I’m probably gonna miss." 4 - Happy Holidays, You Bastard - 0:42 - Stocking with a bottle in it. The next song is a ‘don’t play in front of any young kids or in front of any older people if you are young’ type track!! A very short and snappy song, with funny lyrics (see below) which will just make you smile with surprise! This is about someone’s despair about having to be with his family over the holidays, and the torture he is going through. I am hoping this did NOT actually happen... Read review

Advantages: Fabulous lyrics, moving, not overly sentimental
Disadvantages: Noe really

...the impression of someone who rejoices in what life has to offer him, and gratitude for the amazing musical gift he has. = DON'T LET ME MISS THE GLORY = Gordon Mote's album 'Don't Let me Miss the Glory' was released in October 2007, and contains a mix of styles, all with a strong Country and Western tinge. The opening track 'Adoration' opens with a choir, before developing into an up-tempo rocky worship song, a style that is also in Don't Let Me Miss the Glory.' 'I know Somebody Who Does' and the tracks that make up the central chunk of the CD - 'Get Up in Jesus' Name', 'Mercy Walked In', 'All That Noise', 'I I Can't Even Walk (Without You Holding My Hand)' and ' Ain't Gonna Give Up on God' - are variations of Gospel, while the last three songs are much more reflective ballads. 'Maplewood Methodist Church' is a Country story song... Read review

Advantages: Best Pac Album ever, some of the greatest song ever
Disadvantages: second disk is a bit iffy compared to the first

...up, with all your cash missing" How Do You Want It = Another Addition that was made to the greatest hits album was this song. It’s not really surprising that it was added, as it’s a class track. Well as you can probably tell, this track is a lot to do with sex. I wont go into detail, apart from say this is a great song. What else can I say? "forgive me I’m a ridah, still I’m just a simple man all I want is money, f*ck tha fame" 2 Of Amerikaz Most Wanted Apart from California Love this is perhaps, the most notable song on the album. 2 Of Amerikaz Most Wanted was one of 2pac's greatest hits and rightly so. It features Snoop Dogg and with them two on vocals, you can't expect anything apart from an amazing song. These were two of the hottest talents around the time and this song went... Read review

Advantages: You don't really find out anything usefull about me
Disadvantages: You will find out useless information about me

...Camden Market briefly with Jonathan, about the last summer mark. It was far too busy and all i wanted to find was a nice sit down pub. 13. Loved somebody so much it made you cry? I cry over spilt milk as it is, so you can guess what my answer to this one is! 14. Been in a car accident? I haven't no, although some near misses whilst being escorted to work by my brother (bazza1603) ~ many moons ago now though of course. 15. Croutons or bacon bits? Probably croutons. I had some bacon bits recently that seemed to be not quite right. 16. Sprite or 7UP? I haven't had 7up for years! Does that still exist? I'm gonna have to go with that one... 17: Favourite Movie: The Virgin Suicides.. I have the book too. Stars Kirsten Dunst, and set in the 70's. Very moving film, abit strange.. but still my favourite to date. 18... Read review

Disadvantages: The answers are about me

...would be a big pink and orange gerbera – they are really just a big camp daisy but that’s their joy. 23. Favourite beverage? Tequila gives a nice bang to your night, on a long hot day orange juice, water and sugar mixed together and on a cold winter’s night minty hot choc. 24. Favourite sport to watch? Ice Hockey – I have spent so many days propping my eyes open with match sticks just so I can stay awake to watch my Penguins bring it on. I love the fast pace and tumble of ice hockey, plus the men ain’t half bad either ;) 25. Preferred type of ice cream? Mint Choc Chip – I have a real thing for minty stuff and choc is a MUST in everything. 26. Favourite Sesame Street Character? You know I didn’t watch sesame street ever – I mean like I know who big bird is but other than that I don’t have a clue so I’m gonna be bad... Read review
