The other day I realized that it had been 20 years since this album had come out. It made me kind of sad. I mean, I hadn’t actually listened to this album the year it had come out, I wouldn’t dis...

The Song Survey

I know I just did a survey, but fuck you I love music. 1: A song you like with a color in the title: Blue In Green by Miles Davis. I’ll always thrive to jazz. 2: A song you like with a number in...


For the many many years I’ve been singing Stevie Nicks songs at karaoke, there was an anomalous song called Nightair that was always in the list. It was listed as a Fleetwood Mac song along with ...

Over And Over by Madonna

Like A Virgin is actually my least favorite Madonna album. I hardly ever listen to it because it’s just kind of tacky. I love Madonna just as much as I love Stevie Nicks, but that whole album is ...

Destiny Rules by Fleetwood Mac

If you’ve read my entries for any length of time, you’ve probably come across this. Destiny Rules is more than just my favorite song, it’s like a life motto. I have two tattoos that reference thi...

Love Me & UGH! by The 1975

I’m incredibly critical about music… that being said, I find myself enjoying the trashiness of pop music. I do have One Direction albums, I have Justin Bieber’s new album, but I find it difficult...


He’s gotten a lot of press recently for covering the entirety of Taylor Swift’s 1989 album, which is good because people finally know who he is and don’t immediately think of Bryan Adams when the...


This song has a very strange and, if you’ll forgive me, twisted history. She wrote for the soundtrack of the movie Twister based on having seen an early cut of the movie. She sees the movie as an...


I love Sting. I know he’s a very divisive character in music but I quite enjoy his eclecticism. From his punk-reggae infused days with The Police to his various musical journeys as a solo artist,...


I discovered this song while randomly searching for music on iTunes. This was a couple of years ago and I was just going through the French music section, and I came upon the title track from thi...


Despite the fact that I’m forever listening to the music I listened to in junior high and high school (or maybe because of that), I’m not familiar with all 90s music. I knew Gin Blossoms from Hey...


A year ago, Blondie came out with a new album. Blondie is an artist with whom I have a deep, intimate connection, musically. I didn’t really listen to Blondie until I saw them in 2004, met Jeff t...


If you don’t know Jay Brannan, it wouldn’t be surprising. He’s a cult artist who initially found fame in a truly explicit scene from the movie Shortbus. His appearance in that movie segued into a...


On a whim, I bought Genesis’ greatest hits (it was the only thing on iTunes that had Mike + the Mechanics’ “Silent Running” that was halfway decent quality), and I suddenly remembered how much I ...

Jack You Off by Pansy Division

Part of trying to get my head screwed on straight (no pun intended) again is bringing myself back to more simplistic way of life for myself. I’m fighting a lot of the stupid shame that I seem to ...

I'm So Afraid by Fleetwood Mac

Fleetwood Mac is one of my favorite bands, but it took me some time to get into them. I didn’t really know who they were when I was younger, although I knew many of the songs from their Tango In ...


I have been singing for twenty-one years now, and I can honestly say that I’m proud of the breadth and depth my voice has acquired over those years. My voice has been molded and sculpted through ...


I needed to laugh and this did it for me. This is really explicit but that’s the point… OMG…

Stranger Ways by Anberlin

Anberlin has been a favorite of mine for ten years. I remember the night I first saw them which was the night I met them. I was hanging out waiting for my friend Bobby. Bobby worked at one of tho...


I may listen to all kinds of music, but my soul always belongs to rock & roll. When they were good, they were really good.

I Get Lonely by Janet

Really, any of the songs from The Velvet Rope are among my favorite songs. I remember seeing that album cover in advertisements in the mall and not being able to figure out who it was. I suppose...


A lot of people consider Alanis Morissette to be a relic of the 90s, but I discovered this song, off her latest album, and I really connected with the spirit of the song. It’s quite intense when...


http://youtu.be/tjF0svqQR9k I was reading an entry from someone who had mentioned that a significant other had found this person's collection of entries here on Prosebox. I've had that happen to...


http://youtu.be/NiGMqbXb8J8Mississippi by Sheryl Crow is one of my favorite songs because I bought The Globe Sessions when it came out in 1999 and it has become one of my go-to depression records...
