About This Site

Each month I select 20 songs (10 songs twice a month) that I am either hooked on or am curious about. Most of the music I select are rock, hip-hop, R&B and pop songs.

My song selection comes from 20-30 CDs I get from various sources each month, as well as recommendations from iTunes and Amazon. I also check out the charts in US, UK and Japan.

Chris Cornell - Billie Jean

Album: Carry On

Earlier this month, Chris Cornell released his highly anticipated second solo album, the first since breaking up the super group, Audioslave. On this CD you can find “You Know My Name” the theme song from James Bond, Casino Royale. But everyone’s been talking about this Michael Jackson cover. When I first heard that he is covering this song, I thought that sounded weird, but Chris Cornell changed the tempo significantly and it actually really works. I love when the cover is more than just a cover and does something different.
