I'm sure there are tons and tons of you reading just the title, and then closing the window. However, to those of you faithful readers who have continued on, thanks.<br /><br />Basically, yes, I am writing a review for the Jonas Brothers' new album, <span style="font-style: italic;">Lines, Vines, and Trying Times</span>. It was released at midnight, and already at 6:45 AM when I was eating breakfast it had over 700 reviews on iTunes. Curious, I took a listen. And boy, did I hear what my ear's weren't ready to hear.<br /><br />It's great. A lot different than their other albums. They actually sound like a band, not the mainstream pop that Disney has warped them into. Every song has a meaning that you can relate to, the strings and the horns are brilliantly blended with Joe and Nick's voices, and it's just a fun record to listen to. At first when I heard "What did I do to your Heart" I thought, "ew, country-pop." However, the full song just sounds great. I presume it's because of Nick's voice going so well with the strings. I am so pleased with how much they surprised their fans.The only one song I'm not a fan of, and probably won't ever be is "Before the Storm", which is sung by Nick and Miley Cyrus. Seriously, a song about their breakup at 14 years old? No thanks. But hey, it gets all the teeny boppers crazy, so whatever.<br /><br />But honestly, I strongly suggest you give this album a chance. Especially to the people who disfavored their other two albums, because this one is purely a new sound. Perfect for the summer, a person with a good taste in music, and of course, a teenaged girl's attempt to mend her broken heart.<br /></span></span><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family:arial;"></span></span></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1717264392348261226-3410607270585984520?l=playtheboombox.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Juliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00522629779649938098noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1717264392348261226.post-17198470841980639992009-05-27T20:42:00.001-07:002009-05-27T21:10:34.980-07:00<div align="center"><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:100%;">So I don't really want to whine but I just wrote this post and accidently hit the backspace button and it took me to the previous page and deleted it. "FML." But OK, I have no life therefore I'll just start over. So here we go, take two:</span></span></div><div align="center"><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:100%;"></span></span></div><div align="center"><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:100%;">I am more than excited for Friday. I am estatic. I get to miss an entire day of school and go to Six Flags Great Adventure for a chorus trip with all my friends. That means I get to eat all the greasy junkfood I want, scream my face off on rollercoasters, and of course take ridiculously lame pictures with Bugs Bunny and etc.  </span></span></div><div align="center"><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:100%;"></span></span></div><div align="center"><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:100%;">However, before all this estatic excitement I have to go on a very long, boring busride. Therefore, I shall do what I did last year and make a playlist for my second generation blue iPod Nano. Woot, woot. Keep in mind these songs are very happy, spring-to-summerish:</span></span></div><div align="center"><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:100%;"></span></span></div><div align="center"><ul><li><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:85%;">The Winner Is...- Devotchka</span></span></li><li><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:85%;">Mushaboom- Feist</span></span></li><li><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:85%;">I Feel It All- Feist</span></span></li><li><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:85%;">The Park- Feist</span></span></li><li><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:85%;">West Coast- Coconut Records</span></span></li><li><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:85%;">God Put a Smile Upon Your Face- Coldplay</span></span></li><li><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:85%;">I Will Possess Your Heart- Death Cab For Cutie</span></span></li><li><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:85%;">Grapevine Fires- Death Cab For Cutie</span></span></li><li><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:85%;">Talking Bird- Death Cab For Cutie</span></span></li><li><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:85%;">Cath...- Death Cab For Cutie</span></span></li><li><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:85%;">No Sunlight- Death Cab For Cutie</span></span></li><li><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:85%;">The Heart Of Life- John Mayer</span></span></li><li><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:85%;">Walk On The Wild Side- Lou Reed</span></span></li><li><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:85%;">Fake Plastic Trees- Radiohead</span></span></li><li><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:85%;">Samson- Regina Spektor</span></span></li><li><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:85%;">So Says I- The S</span></span><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:85%;">hins</span></span></li><li><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:85%;">New Slang- The S</span></span><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:85%;">hins</span></span></li><li><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:85%;">Sea Legs- The S</span></span><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:85%;">hins</span></span></li><li><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:85%;">Australia- The S</span></span><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:85%;">hins</span></span></li><li><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:85%;">Mrs. Robinson- Simon and Garfunkel</span></span></li><li><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:85%;">Chicago- Sufjan Stevens</span></span></li><li><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:85%;">Semi-Charmed Life- Third Eye Blind</span></span></li><li><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:85%;">A Punk- Vampire Weekend</span></span></li><li><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:85%;">Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa- Vampire Weekend</span></span></li><li><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:85%;">Walcott- Vampire Weekend</span></span></li><li><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:85%;">Campus- Vampire Weekend</span></span></li></ul><p><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:100%;">And that's that.
