Review:
Well My Chemical Romance has released another Live album. This one is from their The Black Parade Tour. They crossed the world with the Black Parade and took everyone by storm. The cool thing about The Black Parade is Dead! is that not only do you get a live CD you also get a DVD with 2 concerts on it. One from Mexico (which is the same concert as the CD) and another from New Jersey. I went to The Black Parade and that is the main reason I bought this live album. The only problem I have with it is, I wish it was in the order of the Black Parade. The DVD of Mexico, only has the Black Parade album performance on it. If You went to the Black parade, After the black parade songs, they changed costumes and began a 8 song of their first album Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge. It would of been nice to have that. But Overall it is a very good live album. It will give you a taste of The Black Parade. Any My Chemical Romance fan will enjoy this, and if you like a great concert, then you will too.

Review:
Ive always liked Sugarland, but became a fan when they released their single Stay off of their second album Enjoy The Ride. In which when I heard they had a new single out i got excited. I didn't hear All I Wanna Do until I saw the video on CMT. There is something about Jennifer Nettles voice that draws you in. It will keep you drenched in good old raw music with their third album Love On The Inside. What I found cool, was that it was released in 2 different versions. The Deluxe Fan Edition has 5 extra songs. 2 in which are Live songs and 3 that are studio recorded. The week after the regular edition was released. The lead single of the album All I Wanna Do was just the icing on the cake. Next to come of the album will be the second single Already Gone. "May we all heal ourselves and never leave before we're gone" the meaning of the song. Their are Sugarlands usual fun lovin' songs, but also are some slow songs. Joey about the what ifs after a friends death, Wishing a song about wishing that you could get over that hard love. An interesting song, Very Last Country "People stereotype country music to be about your dog dying, your mama dying, your wife leaving, your husband cheating, losing your job etc etc If life was perfect and there were no conflicts to resolve, where would any art form be?" explains Sugarland. Honestly, This album is very well done and is jam packed with 17 amazing tracks. It will make you happy, it will make you said, it will make you want to hold that special someone. It most importantly will make you feel Love On The Inside
