Burning Bridges – Bon Jovi – This isn’t cute or funny, it is a faux country sing-along, written so Panic At The Disco can accurately claim, they beat the Jersey nitwit senseless – D-

Who Taught You How to Hate – Disturbed – On second thoughts, these guys stink – D+

Pieces – Rob Thomas – Dreadful ballad by a guy who knows no better – C-

Somehow you Know What I Mean – The Bohicas – If these rockers would just be a little better they’d be a worry, but they aren’t so you are forced to make more of good but lightweight rockers like this closer – C-

It Ain’t You – Jordin Sparks – grown up sexy songs for bored teens -a true disappointment on a bad album – C

Running For Cover – Noah Gundersen – Supremely boring song -it is painful – D-

The Bees Of Spring – The Swords – White blues rocker ala Led Zep but without the singer or guitarist or bassist or drummer – B-
