What Are You Listening To?
[Image: 2270082-292-292.jpg]

TIM & JEAN "like what" cd, 2011.

career stats:
studio albums...........1
singles....................3

this album..............#12 AU
singles:
come around...........no chart action
I can show you........no chart action
don't stop...............no chart action

Aussie pop duo from here in Perth....
as you can gather with one solitary album release, this is their debut set,
by coincidence, it also happens to be their final album prior to splitting up....
Tim and Jean play all instruments between then, which just happen to be mostly
electronic/synthed up pop...
a few catchy tunes on here but overall too repetitive in lyrics per song and music overall.

I DO NOT LIKE THIS ALBUM

worst track: like what
best track: I can show you

Christina's fourth album....
sold some thirteen point whatever million copies worldwide, making it her
second highest selling album (her debut self titled set sold 17 million)....
lots of different styles on this one rom pop, funk, r+b and ballads....
man, this girl can sing, she'd have been good doing the Gaga thing with Mr.Bennett IMO....
I have three albums of hers, this is the best IMO...
she made two of the greatest singles of the early 2000's in "beautiful" and "fighter", both
of which appear on this album...
no, I do not love this album, but its still pretty darn good!

I could change that just by making her listen to Yodelin In The Valley

BTW MH....

why aren't you a fan of Kid Rock (not rapping Kid but Americana/Southern Rock Kid), is it because his rap crap is still fresh in your mind???

I like loads of songs that are not country.
Believe it or not this song [It Must Have Been Love] is from a lysol commercial.
It is shown quite often.
