Glee "Last Christmas"

Last week, the cast of Glee released their Christmas single of "Last Christmas". I really like this song. The Ashley Tisdale version is really good, but I have to say that this one is better. It's really cool to hear this song sung by a girl and a guy. It's almost a duet, but not. And then they give it the Glee Cast spin to make it like a show tune. Seriously, a major Christmas favorite. And the best part is, the proceeds from the song all go to charity! A great song for a great cause! Why not? So go to iTunes and get your copy!

David Archuleta "Christmas from the Heart" Review

I got David A's Christmas CD the other day and it is amazing! It is pure Christmas spirit! His voice is pure and just so good. My favorite songs are "Pat-a-Pan" and "Melodies of Christmas". "Pat-a-Pan" isn't an original but you hardly ever hear it. It has a really cool beat to it and some instrumental work that really add to it. "Melodies of Christmas" is the only original on the album. It's really cool how they added some classic Christmas song lyrics in the song.
My only problem with the CD is that I wish they had done some faster songs. Something full of spirit in the pop David style. But it's really good. Go get your copy wherever CDs are sold! But good luck finding it! I got the last one at a Barnes & Noble.
P.S. I don't like the original art for the album so I found this one and put it to my iPod. Thanks Snarky Archies!

Tinkerbell and the Lost Treasure Review

Thanksgiving Sunday, the new Tinkerbell movie was on Disney Channel. I really liked the first one when it premiered during the Summer and really looked forward to seeing the second one. It was SOOOOO good! It was way better than the first and it was a lot funnier.

The storyline was really cool. There wasn't really a villain like in the first one, and it was just a giant quest. It was about self discovery. I really liked how Jesse McCartney's character, Terence, had a bigger part. I missed seeing the other fairies though. I loved when Terence was talking to Silvermist and he said Tink exploded and she said "SHE EXPLODED!" Seriously, the best part!
I can't wait for the next Tinkerbell movie "The Great Fairy Race", probably due out next summer.

Skyrunners Review

Disney XD's first ever original movie premiered on the day after Thanksgiving. I Tivoed it, after seeing the previews for it on Disney Channel it looked pretty good. I was really excited to see it, but I was sadly disappointed.
The movie was soooooo predictable. I sat there watching it, saying the scenes out loud to what was going to happen next. Every single time I was right! I don't want to ruin it, but it was seriously mega predictable.
It was a good start for Disney XD. They don't have any other ideas to build on so they will of course make a sequel. Let's hope it's better than the first.
Overall, it was a good solid start to Disney XD's many original movies. I look forward to better ones in the future!

Brooke White Christmas EP

I was browsing through the Holiday section in iTunes this week and found a Christmas EP from Brooke White. She's on of my favorite artists, and I immediately grabbed it. It only has three songs but it's totally worth it. I didn't like the cover that they had for it so I made my own.

The first song on the EP is "Away in the Manger". My cover says "Away in a Manger" only because I was listening to the song when I was making it and they say "away in a manger" in the song. It was really cool to hear a new version of this song. It's a true Christmas classic and you hardly ever hear it.

The second song is "Blue Christmas". She remakes the Elvis classic and makes it her own. Elvis is cool and all, but this song has a lot of repeating in it. This one doesn't repeat anything and is a really nice version of it.

The last song is my favorite cover and song! "California Christmas" is (I think) an original. I love Christmas songs where they sing about the Christmas in places where it doesn't snow. I lived in California for a long time, and this song is really cool.

Her voice is absolutely beautiful and pure on this EP. She's a unique artist that has an interesting sound. If you're not a Brooke White fan, you'll still love this EP. It's a great addition to your Christmas playlist!

Emily Osment "Run, Rudolph, Run"

Emily is releasing a Christmas single! Her EP was amazing and I can't wait to here her version of this song! It is being released on December 1st!

Thanksgiving Review

This was a really fun Thanksgiving this year. My family and I went over to a friends house and had smoked turkey, ham, garlic mashed potatoes, stuffing, and pasta with squash...it tastes a lot better than it sounds! My mom made rolls and I think I ate about half of them =). But rolls have to be the one thing that you can fifty of. We went home and watched Up!, which has to be the best Pixar movie ever!
But, before all of that was the Macy's Parade. I watched on NBC after it was almost over so my Tivo wouldn't catch up to it. Mitchel Musso, Katharine McPhee, Boys Like Girls, and Tiffany Thornton were among many of the great people they had. Tiffany Thornton sang with Kermit the Frog to perform their new Christmas single "I Believe". It is such a good song! That song defines what Christmas is to the line! Such an amazing new Christmas song. You can buy it on iTunes on the 8th!

P.S. The template I have right now won't let me have a Chatbox, so if you have a comment, just leave one on a post. Thanks!

Play My Music!

I really like to make the collages of cover art so I made one a while ago with some of my favorite music. I've got plenty of Disney Channel music and stars in there, along with some of my other favorites. The soundtrack for Glee, Kris Allen, Allison Iraheta, Jump5, guest., VFactory, Kelly Clarkson, Katherine McPhee, and Jason Castro. They are all amazing artists, and would recommend them to anyone!

Fall!

Hey everybody! It's been a while, but I'm back! I'll try my best to post as much as I can from now on.
The banner is some of my favorite music that has come out during the fall.
It is officially fall and Thanksgiving is only a few weeks away! The Holiday Season is well on its way as we all scramble for the best presents and the biggest turkey! I've got some big plans for Christmas so stay tuned!

Sonny with a Chance Review

The new "Sonny with a Chance" was on on Sunday, and it was the first of the new episodes airing every Sunday this month. This episode had the comedian/actor Jeff Dunham. He had a funny part, but not a major role.
It was cool in this episode how we got to see some more of Sonny's mom. When Sonny and her mom started to Work Things Out, I was busting up laughing! Then, to compare Sonny and her mom to Tanwy and her mom was pretty cool too. One mom bought her daughter a mop and another bought her daughter a shirt that didn't fit her. Haha...that was a good one.
Stay tune this Sunday for a new episode!

New Layout, New Start

I made a new layout for the blog the other day. I really liked the design so I went with it. It'd different and it kind of reminds me of spring, but I find it to be really relaxing and fresh. Hope you like it!
P.S. I'll put the chat box back up after things settle down with my other blogging stuff.

100th Post!......Finally

Happy 100th post! I know I'm already 1/5 of the way to 200, but here it is! I made this logo from some of the banners that I've had for the blog. Happy 100th post and see you at 200!
