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.

Madcon - Beggin'

Album: So Dark The Con Of Man

The first time I heard this song, I thought it was Chris Rock singing. I thought it was part of Madagascar soundtrack (in which Chris Rock does the voice of the zebra). I was impressed how well he could sing. But later I found out that this song is done by a group called Madcon from Norway! This track was already a huge hit in their native country Norway, as well as other European nations including France, Germany and UK. This song is finally getting the US release. It’s a great track that samples Frankie Valli’s song.
