Review:
This is the first album of Alanis's Ive ever bought. But, WOW! it is absolutely amazing!.
A definate contender in the "Best Of '08". Its industrial feel amplifies Alanis's voice along with her amazing writting. From start to finsih, this album brings it all. Every song on "Flavors of Entanglement" a single. I wasnt to sure about it at first. I heard "Underneath" a while ago. However I did not sit down and intake it until I sat in my room listening to it on my IPOD. I cant say my favourite songs on the album, if I did I would have to list the entire tracklisting again. The bonus tracks on the deluxe edition are aswell amazing. The deluxe edition is worth the extra $2.00. For that $2.00 you get 5 extra tracks. "Orchid" is an AMAZING SONG. It is a song that needs to be heard. Overall this album exceeded my expectations. It is a must own of '08.

Review:
I already bought "Good Girl Gone Bad" when it came out. I instantly fell in love with "Don't Stop The Music", "Breakin' Dishes". Over Time, the rest of the tracks came to me. Some slower then others. Then I heard Rihanna was going to re-release "Good Girl Gone Bad". I was very excited since I enjoyed the original version very much. I was interested in what would come with it. Even more so, if their would be extra tracks. I originally heard "Take A Bow". I loved it. It was very catchy and I knew it would be a hit. When it came to my attention that Rihanna was going to do a song with Maroon 5, I wasnt sure what to think. But when I saw the video for "If I Never See Your Face Again" It was amazing. But, I LOVE LOVE LOVE "Disturbia". It is dubbed my favorite Rihanna song to date. Its Techno and R&B background with Rihannas voice matched perfectly!. Once again, another hit for Rihanna. I did not enjoy the DVD that came with "Good Girl Gone Bad: Reloaded". I already bought the "Good Girl Gone Bad Live" dvd, in which the dvd with the cd is just a sampler. Over all, I highly enjoyed Rihanna Good Girl Gone Bad: Reloaded. I would for sure reconmend it.

Rock On,
Mich
