I Am Mad & Done With People Trying To Ruin My Life!

My amazing weekend was following into tomorrow until like 8:30ish. One of my so-called "friends" told me that this girl thinks I'm creepy. I always try to be nice to him, but he always blames me for being mean. I can't use any names cause it's basically against the law, but, you don't even know how much I want the whole world to know him and how much I could be mad at this person!!! He always fells like I'm in the wrong, but then cusses me out. I think he needs to just get his act straight! I have already apologized, but he still hasn't. If you read this, you know who you are, I want you to know that I will keep trying to be nice and be friends! Doesn't even matter if you don't wanna be! One last thing, even though this song talks about beauty, take it from a different perspective. Who says we can't be friends? Who says you can't be nice?

Until Next Time, Alex

Free Tyrone Wells Metal & Wood EP

I saw Tyrone in concert opening for Thousand Foot Krutch and Run Kid Run last year, and he was REALLY good, so I was thrilled when I saw that his Acoustic EP was available for free. If you have never heard of him, he sounds like Mat Kearney, Jason Mraz, and Jack Johnson. His songs have also been featured on some pretty big movies and T.V. shows. Some of them are Numb3rs, Ghost Whisperer, Vampire Diaries, and My Sister's Keeper, just to name a few. So, if you watch those shows, you have probably heard his music before, just you didn't even know it! Tyrone is definitely worth a try! When you get a chance to listen to it, could you please leave a comment on what you think? Thank you!!

Album Review: III by Family Force 5

To start things off, I am very disappointed to review this album since I am a Christian. The past Family Force 5 album have had some religious connection in one way or another. Not only that, but their "Crunk" genre of music has changed to more Hip-Hop/Pop style of music. This album is more about finding a girl and commenting on how good she looks, which is the case in almost 50% of the songs. I have to say that I am very uncomfortable playing any songs, but "Not Alone," "Can You Feel It,"  "Paycheck," and "Wobble" around my little sisters. I have loved FF5 from the beginning, but they have hit a slump on "III."

If I had to choose a favorite song, it would have to be "Can You Feel It." It is the only song on the album that follows their usual crunk music that is on their first 2 albums. But overall, this is a good song if you are going to work out.

"Paycheck" is another pretty cool song, even though it's not crunk. It's saying that God sent His Son to die on the cross for us, hence, everyone basically got a "paycheck." You can either take it for granted, or use it wisely and be rewarded with eternal life. So, in a way, life is God's paycheck to us.

"Wobble" was the second song I heard off the album, and I fell in love with it instantly! Even though I'm not even close to good at dancing, I love to! The second this song starts playing, I always get the "jitters" and start to dance!

"You Got It" is the first song about a girl on the album and how she, you guessed it, "got it." In my opinion, probably the worst song on the album and I am disappointed in FF5.

I don't even know what "Mamacita" is about. But, by the looks of the lyrics, It kind of looks like it's about J-Lo. Were they trying to pull off a Mexican-American band? I don't know, but it is a weird song and I am again, disappointed.

Even though "Tank Top" is another song about a girl, I happen to really like the song. I like Hip-Hop/Rap in the first place, and this song has pretty much both. This is one of the few songs I am not disappointed with, even though, I still wouldn't play it around children.

"Not Alone" was a surprising track for FF5 fans. They have always been crazy, but then they write a ballad? And It's Good? Wow! It is probably one of my favorite songs on the entire album. I give this song a standing ovation.

"Dang Girl," another song that I would rather not have children hear, but love it. It's halfway between crunk and hip-hop and I love it! Another good song on the album! Good job guys.

"Love Gone Wrong" is another song, in which I don't know what it's supposed to be, so it's hard for me to review. Overall, another disappointing song by the guys of FF5.

"Get On Outta Here" is a good way to end a FF5 album. They follow their crunk style, and do an overall pretty good job on the song.

As reading over the review, I don't have as many complaints as I thought I was going to. But, it isn't as good as their first two albums, and when it comes time for them to record a fourth album, they should go back to crunk completely.
