Adriana This book is AMAZING! It's totally changed my life. I know that sounds corny, but it's true. I have a totally different perspective on life now. I always thought that being a teenager was the only time...

Adriana This is a great book. It's very encouraging and thought provoking. It's written very simply, no big words or anything so that anyone can read it and apply it to their life....

Switchfoot Okay, I love Switchfoot and while this album isn't my favorite, I still love it. 'Love is a Movement' and 'Inoccence Again' are my favorite songs and if you're a die hard Switchfoot fan then you should...
Pleasantly Suprised | Posted December-14-2007
Because I am a big fan of rock, I really didn't think I'd enjoy this album but to my very very pleasant surprise, I found it to be very enjoyable. My favorite songs are 'Can't Go On' and 'Forgive Me.' The song "Forgive Me' brings a good, godly message across to the listener and 'Can't Go On' also has a fantastic message. I also enjoyed listening to 'No Plan B' and 'Put Like That.' If I had to describe it to you it would be something like 'hip hop with a touch of latin.' If you like Tobymac like I do, you'll probably really enjoy this album.
Just Okay | Posted November-10-2007
This album is just okay for me, "The Truth" and "Apathetic Way To Be" are the only songs I really like on it. If you're a Relient K fan, you'll really like the acoustic versions to "Which To Bury, Us or the Hatchet", "Overthinking", and "Be My Escape" but for me, I like the original versions better. I really liked the lyrics for "In Like a Lion" but the vocals didn't really cut it for me. So I if you really like Relient K, you'll definitely like it, but if you're just trying them out, I'd recommend one of their other albums.

I really liked this album, the songs live were really good. Some artists put out albums like this and it doesn't sound very well. I really liked 'Does Anybody Hear Her' live and 'Lifesong' was pretty good as well. And I have to say, I've seen Casting Crowns in concert before, and they're very good. So you might want to go see them sometime.
Very Tiresome | Posted November-03-2007
Okay, when I heard The After's debut album, I liked it. But after awhile, the songs all started sounding the same. So, if I may be perfectly honest, I don't like it. I mean, I REALLY don't like it. Their first single, 'Beautiful Love' had potential, I'll admit, but something didn't click, maybe it was the vocals are lyrics, but it didn't work for me. 'All That I Am' has great lyrics, but the sound is just boring. The whole album for me was very tiresome. But that's just me, I know a lot of people who really liked it and so might you. Just be careful and that's all I'll ever ask of you.
Amazing | Posted October-18-2007
Call me crazy, but I think that this album is amazing! I love how they kick off the album with 'Oh! Gravity.' 'Awakening' and 'Faust, Midas, and Myself' are amazing songs and, of course, the vocals are great. I love the song '4:12', it's so original and creative and it makes me smile when I listen to it. I didn't really like 'Dirty Second Hands' but it's the only one I don't like, so that's really saying something. So, I think this album is great, but you might not, just give it a shot, you might really like it.

With a sound much like Stellar Kart, Eleventyseven's debut album is very refreshing, in my opinion. Songs like 'Myspace' and 'Teenage Heartbreak' can put a smile on your face but if you listen to the album all the way through, you might get a headache. While the album is very good, the songs sound very similar and the vocals can get on your nerve. 'Here With Me' and 'Reach That Far' are very soft and sweet. If you like Stellar Kart, Jonas Brothers, and Mxpx, you'll definitely like this album.
Pretty Good | Posted October-17-2007
I was really impressed when I heard this album, the sound reminded me much of Zoegirl and the message is similar as well. 'Never Alone' and 'Mirror were two of my instant favorites, 'She Walked Away' really inspired me and I really love the message. I think of BarlowGirl mainly for young girls, like Zoegirl and Superchick. If you like those two bands I just mentioned, BarlowGirl is perfect for you.

I bought this album, not really knowing if I would like it. The first song I heard by them was 'F-Stop' and I kind of liked it, thinking that Sullivan was a pop band. Little did I know that I was completely wrong. I heard 'Goodbye, Miss Havisham' and I was taken aback when I heard the sound, it's more emo than anything, kind of edgy and dark. 'The Process' and 'Great For My Collection' are two great songs that have the emo sound. 'Tell Me I'm Wrong' is like 'F-Stop', the sound is very much pop and I didn't like it very much. Soft songs like 'Fire Away' really added a nice touch to the album. The thing I like about Cover Your Eyes is that no song sounds the same and I pretty much like most of the songs, which is saying a lot these days. So Sullivan pretty much has a sound for everyone.
Spooky and Mysterious | Posted October-16-2007
This is was the first album I heard by Falling Up and I really enjoyed it, I had never heard the original versions of the songs but when I did, I was instantly disappointed, but that's a whole other story. I really enjoyed 'Islander' which has a spooky, ghostly sound, which is often repeated throughout the album. The entire was very mysterious and mostly about sound, as Falling Up so often is. It seems that they were experimenting with sound so much that the songs drowned in it. 'Moonlit' and 'Searchlights' were very interesting and I like the sound much better than the original versions. So yeah, if you like sound, you'll like this album.
Memories | Posted October-16-2007
This album really brings back memories, because Relient K was the first band I really got into. 'Sadie Hawkins Dance' and 'Pressing On' are two of my favorite songs on the album. No, it's not Relient K's best album ever, they were still searching for their sound. So if you want to listen to Relient K, I suggest you listen to their two newest albums and if you like that, get the rest of them.
