Michael Jackson was THE titan of 80’s Pop, and you need look no further than “Thriller” to find a masterpiece. I love most of the songs on this album, and have done for some time … so I’m amazed I’ve forgotten to rank the album’s tracks from worst to best until now! Before we begin,Continue reading ““Thriller” – Every Song Ranked”

Every Super Bowl Halftime Show Ranked
The 57th Super Bowl has come and gone, and it boasted yet another halftime show that got people talking. I certainly have my opinions on it … so let’s get to ranking them all! I’m not going to include the early Disney halftime shows (for obvious reasons), and I decided to only look at theContinue reading “Every Super Bowl Halftime Show Ranked”
Every Beatles, Bowie AND Muse Album Ranked
If you asked me what my three favourite musical artists are, I would most likely say The Beatles, David Bowie and Muse. I love them all for wildly different reasons, and they’ve been the subject of many a list on my blog for the past two years. Since it’s been over two years since IContinue reading “Every Beatles, Bowie AND Muse Album Ranked”
“Let It Be” – Songs Ranked
The final official Beatles album, except “Let It Be” was actually the penultimate album that they recorded. They shelved it after they weren’t satisfied with the final product, and the record label ended up releasing it against their will in 1970 after they had broken up. I’d always thought fondly of this album, but theContinue reading ““Let It Be” – Songs Ranked”
“The White Album” (The Beatles) – Songs Ranked
“The White Album”, a.k.a “The biggest mish-mash of songs in music history”, is both the most inconsistent and the most remarkable album in the Beatles’ discography. While not every song is great, the fact that the band managed to make thirty unique songs in one package is nothing short of genius. Every band member getsContinue reading ““The White Album” (The Beatles) – Songs Ranked”
“Magical Mystery Tour” – Songs Ranked
Some Beatles fans are quick to shun “Magical Mystery Tour” – they claim it’s not officially an album, and it doesn’t succeed in its concept quite as much as Sgt Pepper’s did. While I agree with that last sentiment, I think not including it among their albums is a load of rubbish. It’s one ofContinue reading ““Magical Mystery Tour” – Songs Ranked”
“Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band” – Songs Ranked
While “Sgt. Pepper’s” probably wouldn’t quite crack my top 3 Beatles albums, there’s no denying the sheer impact it had on culture. It’s unequivocally one of the best albums of all time, and it pioneered an obscene amount of musical and production breakthroughs. It’s also one of the band’s most consistent albums ever – howContinue reading ““Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band” – Songs Ranked”
“Rubber Soul” – Songs Ranked
It’s long overdue that I go through some of the greatest Beatles albums to rank their songs – maybe not all of them, but I’ve missed a few of my favourites and it’s time I put that right (so I probably won’t do their first five … or “Yellow Submarine”, for that matter). “Rubber Soul”Continue reading ““Rubber Soul” – Songs Ranked”
