MUSIC: Slow songs are in

There are a few songs on the radio that I'm loving right now, and they all happen to be slow. Anyway, I thought I'd pay them some tribute before they get played out and every predictable emotional internet whore puts them on his/her myspace page. (It's probably too late for that).

Justin Timberlake - Until the End of Time
When I first heard this song (not on the radio), I thought it was one of those really good non-single-album-only hits. But then I heard it on WBLS, and on Power 105 soon after. I have to say hearing it on the radio took a little something away from the song, but I'm still sure it'll be yet another successful single (Summer Love is also riding the radio waves right now) from JT's Future Sex/Love Sounds album.


Bone Thugs-N-Harmony featuring Akon - I Tried
This song is off of the new album, Strength & Loyalty. The song goes into the reality of the problems on the streets these days and that's the fact that it's hard to get out of what you're given.

man I try so hard
will always be a victim of these streets
it ain't my fault cause I...
tried to get away but trouble follows me



Fergie - Big Girls Don't Cry
I think this is a good song for teenage girls navigating their way through life with boys, and for grown women for that matter, because love never gets easier. Plus, Fergie is actually singing and not just shouting or spelling words.
