Song: Forever
Artist: L`Arc~en~Ciel
Album: Smile
Genre: Rock
Language: Japanese
Length: 4:40 [6.6 MB]
Comments: This is a great song. It was in my head for a week after the first time I heard it. It's pretty mellow, and a bit waltzy from the 6/8 time. Which also happens to be my favorite time signature, woo!

Song: New World
Artist: L`Arc~en~Ciel
Album: Awake
Genre: Rock
Language: Japanese
Length: 4:06 [5.8 MB]
Comments: This is pretty different from "Forever." It has more of a driving beat. It's kind of an inspiring song; I can see it being used as an anime theme. (Maybe it is?) Highly Recommended!

Song: Turn the Page
Artist: Blind Guardian
Album: A Twist in the Myth
Genre: Power Metal
Language: English
Length: 4:18 [6.3 MB]
Comments: Does Blind Guardian even sing in German ever? Because that would totally win. Anyhow, this song is another happy one. It sounds kind of Irish to me in the beginning, which I like.

Song: Ready, Set, Go!
Artist: Tokio Hotel
Album: Scream
Genre: Rock
Language: English
Length: 3:35 [5.0 MB]
Comments: Dahahahaa, Tokio Hotel. My true love(s). This song is perfect. Like all of their songs. Even though I do prefer them singing in German. The music video to this song is nominated for the MTV "New artist of the year award" or somewhat. And they had best win, seeing as the competition is Hannah Montana (oh, excuse me, Miley Cyrus) and that stupid song about kissing a girl. We need more foreign musics in the States, for serious. Highly Recommended! Actually, go buy this album right now. NOW.

Song: Those Nights
Artist: Skillet
Album: Comatose
Genre: Rock
Language: English
Length: 3:46 [5.3 MB]
Comments: I saw Skillet play in concert at Unity, right before TobyMac. They're pretty cool. You'd like them even if you're not into Christian music I think.

Song: Not Crying
Artist: Flight of the Conchords
Album: The Distant Future
Genre: Comedy
Language: English
Length: 3:24 [6.6 MB]
Comments: Haha, this song is from the hilarious show "The Flight of the Conchords". This song is him telling the girl who just broke up with him that he's not crying. "I'm not crying 'cause you won't be here to hold my hand/For your information there's an inflamation in my tear glands". This song is great.

Song: Akai Kazaguruma
Artist: Alice Nine
Album: Gion Shouja no Kane ga Naru
Genre: Rock, Visual Kei
Language: Japanese
Length: 4:20 [6.1 MB]
Comments: Shou's voice reminds me of Hyde. This song is good. Kind of repetitive, but still good. If you're into Japanese rock, listen to this.

Song: Hey Yo!
Artist: Battle
Album: 말해 (Tell Me!)
Genre: Pop
Language: Korean
Length: 3:09 [4.5 MB]
Comments: Hmmm. Battle is one of those epitome of man-pop boy bands. The kind who have all the girls screaming "they are soooo cute!" I don't usually listen to stuff like this (anymore), but it's kind of a guilty pleasure thing sometimes. I guess it's the sort of thing you'll like if you like this sort of thing.
