Music

Rationale: The words make no sense at all, the melody is bizarre, and there's a lot of "whu whu whoa"-ing. What do you expect from a band that goes on stage wearing nothing but socks in creative places? Anyways, I'm just impressed that they used the word "zephyr". Amazing.

Rationale: Okay, what more could you want in a song? The vocals are great, the guitars are beautiful, the emotion is there. All in all, it's a great piece of work. The chorus is at the end, which is a bit strange, but it's something to look forward to.

Rationale: I don't really like Avril the person, but Avril the songwriter is pretty darn good. Her songs always have this honest feel; she writes as if she's experienced it all before. Plus, she has a really strong voice. It's almost like she's yelling at you in particular. Fun stuff.

Rationale: You've probably already heard this song if you've seen the xXx commercial. My opinion is that the song starts out really strong with a good melody and rounds out with some great violin-like effects in the back. Anyways, this is just the tip of the iceberg for Our Lady Peace. They've got tons of great songs(try It's All For You)

Rationale: This song is pretty catchy. Initially, it strikes you as mysterious with the swaying tones in the back. I hated the song when it started to play, but it grows on you. Still, after hearing it like forty times it gets a bit annoying. . .

Rationale: This rationale may be a bit biased seeing as I've listened to Parachutes (Coldplay's Debut album) about fifty times!!! I still can't believe how pretty this song is. Listening makes you feel like you're flying or something crazy like that.

Rationale: I don't know why I like this song. I guess it's fun to listen to when you just need to let some steam off.
