16. Talk You Down (Live at The Aviva Stadium, Dublin) [Deluxe Edition Bonus Track]
17. For The First Time (Live at The Aviva Stadium, Dublin) [Deluxe Edition Bonus Track]

Let me just say that this is The Script's best album so far. It has inspirational music. Hall Of Fame is the best track on here. The lyrics are really inspirational. will.i.am does a great role in the song. I think the one with will.i.am is a little better than the original version. I also love If You Could See Me Now. That song also inspirational. The Script just doesn't disappoint me.

In this album, we have a lot of rapping from The Script's Mark Sheehan. Songs like If You Could See Me Now and Broken Arrow. Broken Arrow is one of those songs where you don't hear it on the radio. I really only hear Hall Of Fame and Six Degrees Of Separation. I previewed the song on iTunes and I fell in love with it. It was my second favorite song from the album. Notice I said was. That was before I heard If You Could See Me Now. So now it is third. 

When I first heard Six Degrees Of Separation, I didn't like it. It started playing more after Hall Of Fame and I kept saying no other song can be better. I didn't like how Six Degrees Of Separation was taking the place of Hall Of Fame. But after hearing it a few times, I started to really like it. It's my fourth favorite.

I love how this album has live performances from The Script including songs Breakeven, For The First Time, Talk You Down, and The Man Who Can't Be Moved. Especially since they were all performed in the same.

There a few songs I don't like but the album is good overall. I would love to buy Hall Of Fame (Original Version) from iTunes if it wasn't "Album Only".

My Top 3 Favorite Tracks

Olly Murs - Right Place Right Time

 Olly Murs - Right Place Right Time
Tracks (US Edition)
  1. Army Of Two
  2. Heart Skips a Beat (feat. Chiddy Bang)
  3. Troublemaker (feat. Flo Rida)
  4. Dance With Me Tonight 
  5. Hand On Heart
  6. Hey You Beautiful
  7. Right Place Right Time
  8. Oh My Goodness
  9. Loud and Clear
10. Dear Darlin'
11. One Of These Days (Deluxe Edition Bonus Track)
12. What a Buzz (Deluxe Edition Bonus Track)
13. Cry Your Heart Out (Deluxe Edition Bonus Track)
14. I Need You Now (Deluxe Edition Bonus Track)

Everyone should know the hit single Troublemaker. Troublemaker is my favorite song off this album. I love its catchy pacing. When I first heard it, I thought it was a Maroon 5 song. Olly's voice sounds just like Adam Levine's in this song. It also sounds like a song Maroon 5 would make. 

I also love Right Place Right Time. The music video to me is so inspiring. Especially since part of it involves Olly's X Factor audition. Right Place Right Time is the most inspiring track on this album. It's my second favorite.

Army Of Two and Loud and Clear have this orchestra sounding part in the beginning that I really like. Somehow, Army Of Two became less interesting to me. However I still like Loud and Clear. I Need You Now is one of those that don't really excite you because the only instrument is a piano. It's kind of like Bruno Mars - When I Was Your Man.

Heart Skips a Beat was better with Rizzle Kicks. I prefer to have that version out in the US. But we're lucky we even have the song. Heart Skips a Beat just makes me want to get up and move. It's a cool song.

And Dance With Me Tonight. I thought it was annoying at first. It sounds like it's from the 1950's. But after hearing it a few more times I started to get into it. It's not one of my 3 favorites. But it's still a good song. 

This is the US edition of the album. They have a different version in the UK. I wish he had his first two albums out in the US along with Right Place Right Time.

14. Wasted Years (Deluxe Edition Bonus Track)
15. Let's Stay Together (Deluxe Edition Bonus Track)
16. One More Night (Sticky K Remix) (Deluxe Edition Bonus Track)

Maroon 5 now has their fourth studio album. What's the best track on here? It's Payphone. I love the use of piano in this track. It's the first song where I heard Adam Levine swear. That's only if you buy the explicit version. Obviously like other rappers, Wiz Khalifa swears in the explicit version. It's the best song Maroon 5 ever made. 

My next favorite is Love Somebody. I first heard it when Adam Levine performed it with Maroon 5 on The Voice. That's when I started hearing it on the radio. In the first chorus, it sounds like there is a broom that is sweeping. Pretty strange. But I love the overall song.

My next favorite is One More Night. I used to think it was better than Payphone. But after hearing it a few more times, I realized Payphone was better. I love this version and the Sticky K Remix. The remix however pulls me into the song a little bit more than the original version. But I still like the original. 

I love every other song except Daylight. Daylight = Worst song on album. When they continued to play it on the radio (Before Love Somebody), I got annoyed every time it came on.

Ranking of Album:    1        2        3        4        5     (5 stars)

My Top 3 Favorite Tracks

Introduction

I am now starting a blog for album reviews. A lot of these albums you already know. Some of them may be new to you. Basically, I'm just giving my own opinion. Not everyone will agree with opinion, and that's okay. I might say one song is bad. You might say it's the best song ever. I'm all about music. I love so many artists and so many albums. Here's how my reviews will work. 

I'm going to say an album and list the tracks from that album. I'm also going to give a review on each track individually. I will rate it 1-5 stars. (5 being the best. 1 being the worst. You should already know this.) I will put My Top 3 Favorite Tracks from the album. And feel free to post a comment with your opinion of each album. Hope you enjoy my reviews. :)
