EK10 2/20/12 with DJ Kwokodile

WOW! I really don't like this @ all! I regret not posting The Voice reviews, but I couldn't find the songs anywhere but iTunes... I'll leave it @ that... I regret this choice, but there was a lotttt of pop this week. I apologize for that... I do have a good country song :) Voice songs are almost all gone but that's because this week's songs weren't available... I will publish this one earlier... I feel like I'll forget... So disregard the date I put up :) I have no idea when the Voice songs will come out so... don't anticipate... I've been checking my phone every hour to see if the phones are there... It hasn't paid off. I really wish that I didn't wait those 3+ hours looking around. So enjoy this pop filled charts. Again apologies, I'm usually an alternative guy.

1. [Butt Back Home] - Gym Class Heroes
Well I can say the rap is kinda bad... it's not that great. All I love is the catchy chorus... Not all that great of a reason to like this song... That's all I have to say is that, and oh btw... I listen to the clean version :)

2. [Country Girl (Shake It For Me)] - Luke Bryan
Wow, long song name... Oh well, It makes up for it in the song :) It's a pretty great song. Great country, makes me happy, all I care about :P Luke Bryan has to be my fave country artist!


3. [God Gave Me You] - Blake Shelton
Wow! I love this song. :D He has to be my second favorite! Blake Shelton is the bomb! I really want to go to see his concert... If any of my friends want to go with me, I would love to go to watch a race! It's 39 for a ticket + 20 for better concert seats! So you get a race, and a good spot @ a concert for $59! Not too bad! It's a Nascar Race btw... MEG & DIA THERE 2! Another reason Blake is great, is that he actually invited Dia to go on tour with him! No other coaches did that! But this is one of my favorite country songs :)

4. [The Cave] - Mumford & Sons
Wow! I remember listening to this album April of last year! So glad my school friends got me hooked on the Mumfs! I think they're amazing! My fave song used to be Little Lion Man... but I totally didn't know the f-word was in it. :( So the Cave erupts as my favorite! :D

5. [Bed Intruder Song] - Antoine Dodson
Wow! What a story behind this song! I totally did not know that this song was a real deal! I totally thought this was a gag! I just realized this was real when we watched the news cast on Thursday... I am so smart!

6. [Somebody That I Used To Know] - Gotye
Totally lost faith in this song! I was so wrong! I still love it and it's great! Still love it for the same reasons...

7. [Say Aah (feat. Fabolous] - Trey Songz
Well, this song faded away from glory... It's still good but ehhh its very meh now to me. It's still the same image :) Not to appropriate of an album cover still.

8. [International Love (feat. Chris Brown)] - Pitbull
Hmm... This isn't a very good song :( But I kinda like Pitbull at times, and this is one of the songs I do like. That's all I'm saying, and the album cover's not that great either...

10. [7 x 70] - Chris August
YAY! I still love this song! For the same reasons!

 Well enjoy my overly pop chart!

DJ Kwokodile :)

Took #9 out :) one of my better collab decisions :)

EK10 with DJ Kwokodile 2/13/12

Well, if you haven't noticed yet, I have dropped from 14 to 10. This is due to the fact, I am now introducing album covers, and youtube links, and I have no idea how I'm going to find time for 14, so I'm just doing 10 :)

1. [Say Aah] - Lindsey Pavao
It's a new season of THE VOICE! If you didn't notice, I love the voice and I think that Lindsey is the front-runner for TeamXtina! This is a lovely rendition of Trey Songz's Say Aah! His rendition will also be included in the EK10 this week!

2. [Somebody That I Used to Know (feat. Kimbra)] - Gotye
This song just got on to the EK10 on 2/11/12  so its relatively new.  It is such a simple song, but it sounds so good! I really like how the voices are really melodramatic, but the topic is super serious.

3. [7 x 70] - Chris August
I really really like this song! This makes me feel happy! I think this is a really good song. If you don't already know, this song is about forgiveness! I remember when Caleb taught about forgiveness @ youth group,  he said God looks at our sin stack from a bird's eye view! It's all the same! Aren't we glad our God is so forgiving!

4. [Bleeding Love] - Raquel Castro
I think this song is lovely! I didn't know the Leona Lewis song until after the season was over, so I didn't know the Raquel covered it! Her voice is great and she should have been a semi-finalist! :( I am terribly sorry, but there is no link for Raquel's song, because I cannot find it on youtube. :( I am sorry for any inconvenience.

5. [Say Aah] - Trey Songz
Sorry no image! I do have it, but it is a little inappropriate and I couldn't find an appropriate one... I like this song a lot... a lot a lot! Sounds so good, and it was covered by Lindsey! Nice rap, nice beat! :) Also, not the music video, because I didn't know if it was appropriate or not...

6. [I Don't Want This Night to End] - Luke Bryan

Thanks Lisa for getting me into country and liking this song! Not the Lisa who has the other blog, we call her little lisa, the one I'm talking about is Big Lisa! Well I love this song, me and Big Lisa sing it in her car! It's a great country song and it's so much fun to sing with friends!

7. [Complicated] - Jermaine Paul

I thought this song was really good. I like Avril's version a little, but I don't have it. I don't have any of her songs... I don't have a lot of pop stars on my iTunes... He sings it really well, and it's good. He has a nice voice, but that's obvious being a background singer for Alicia Keys. 

8. [Live Like You Were Dying] - Tim McGraw

I love this song, this is another one of me and Big Lisa's songs. I think its a good sounding song with a great meaning. This song is old, but I still love love love it!

9. [The Last Great Star in Hollywood] - Meg & Dia
I think this is a great song, not the best Meg  & Dia song, but it is pretty good. Their best is Fighting for Nothing, it is not on the EK10 but it is on the EK14! I think Dia's voice is great and in my opinion, the best on Season 1 of THE VOICE!

10. [Someone Like You] - Angel Taylor
Wow! I totally thought this was Adele! Her voice is super good, but she was really nervous. She was smart to pick Adam! I think he can help her the best. It was a very similar rendition to Adele! Great job!








I hope you liked it a lot! This is the first post with youtube links and album covers! Enjoy! 

EK14 with DJ Kwokamole 1/30/12

Wow... EK14 is my top 14 songs! So you can know my music genre, its actually mostly alternative... Love me some alternative... My music genre has been quite... diverse... Unfortunately for me... the first kind of music that  I got into was pop :( sad sad sad day... Thankfully I'm done with stage! Now I am a christian/alternative/indie/country/electronic/techno/dubstep/classical/pop/rock/blues/r&b/dance/hiphop/rap/andof course singer/songwriter! So the only music I don't like is Heavy Metal, and Emo... can't stand the screaming and everything....

(♥ this song, my friend Caleb spoke about forgiveness at YG, and Lisa was like! 7 x 70 gosh! and I didn't listen to her, and I really regret it... but this song has a great message... You need to forgive... btw... Chris August is hilarious and his channel on utube is to die for... he makes covers and his best is "Not Over You" by Gavin DeGraw... great stuff there...)
