BACKTRAXX: Bring It All Back - S Club 7

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

It's been a long time...

So Backtraxx is BACK! "Bring It All Back" is the debut single by British pop group S Club 7. It was co-written by S Club 7, Eliot Kennedy, Mike Percy and Tim Lever for the group's debut album 'S Club', which was released in 1999. Kennedy, Percy and Lever also produced the song, which received a mixed reception from music critics. It was released on 7 June 1999 and is the album's lead single from the album. 'Bring It All Back' was used as the theme music to their CBBC series Miami 7 as well. It reached the top spot in the UK and was certified platinum. It also reached the top ten in Sweden and Ireland.

This song is REALLY included on my 'Early-2000's songs that shook my life'! I have their debut album (the cassette version). Ahh, those were the times...

4.5/5

ENJOY!

BACKTRAXX: L.O.V.E. - Christina Milian

#LateTrain... still a great record. & a BEAUTIFUL video. ... on Twitpic

Track #1 from her compilation album 'Best Of' last 2006, I don't know if this became a single before or a new song added for that album.

I love the song very much! You know, I'm a Christina Milian fan up to her 'Us Against The World' era. It has this sound that makes you grind to the dance floor. Another strong effort from Xtina Milian!

BACKTRAXX: Let It Slide - Joanna Pacitti

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

'Let It Slide' was Joanna Pacitti's first (and last?) Single from her 2006 first (and last?) album 'This Crazy Life'. I know that 90% of people who visit my blog don't know her. So here's a short biography:

She was supposed to be playing the lead role as Annie in 'Annie: The Musical' but because of bronchitis, she was fired. She was also a contestant on 'American Idol season 9' but because of legal issues and rules (she relesed this album before she joined the show, and she claims that she is a friend of AI's producer) she was disqualified and right now, she's out of sight.

The song is super hot! Her soaring voice soared in the midst of the pop/rock sound!

5/5

The video is awesome too. She is pretty but prettier when she cartoonized herself! Very creative video!

4.5/5

ENJOY!

BACKTRAXX: Gypsy Woman - Hilary Duff

Hilary Duff icon on Twitpic

While I'm/We're eagerly waiting for her 2017 album (kidding!), Lemme give you a treat taken from her gorgeous album 'Dignity' last 2007 with the song-that-should-have-been-released 'Gypsy Woman'.

The song was hot hot HOT! It's like a part 2 of her song 'Stranger' with arabian-ish sound but this song was way better!

Please Hilary, release an album immediately!

BACKTRAXX: Rhona

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

I may be the only one who know her. Okay, she's Rhona Bennett, a Mickey Mouse Club cast alongside Christina Aguilera, Justin Timberlake, and Britney Spears. She's also a past member of U.S. divas En Vogue, she also released an album last 2001 and only available in Japan and other Asian countries, glad I got my copy coz' that was super epic! Like the lead single 'Satisfied' that reached the top 5 in Asian and European countries. She is also owned the title 'The First Lady of Darkchild' and I don't know why. She got the voice, the looks, the package!

Here are two of her songs from her uber hot self-titled debut album, the uplifting 'Look To The Sky' and 90's sounding power ballad 'The First Time', both got 5/5 for me.

BACKTRAXX: Sneakernight - Vanessa Hudgens

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

'I want to make a catchy song about sneakers', that's what Baby V did last 2008 with her 1st single from her 2nd (my favorite) album 'Identified'.

At first, I thought it was pretty ugly song but I always hear this on the radio and fell in love with it! The song sounds like a glam-poppish with a retro twist and that's cute, the only negative I can say is her voice. It sounded like she's trying to be Christina Aguilera but she fell flat.

3/5

The prettiest thing about the song is the video! I really love those glowing sneakers and she really looked super dooper gorgeous. I like the dance scenes. Honestly, I'm never interested to hear the rest of her album but because of this vid, I thought I should give it a try and I kept on listening to her 2 albums almost every week up to now!

5/5

PLEASE VANESSA, MAKE A NEW ALBUM!

BACKTRAXX: Overload - Sugababes

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

Ahh, the very 1st single from Sugababes 1.0 from their debut and (for me) their best album to date 'One Touch'.

The song is actually my 2nd favorite from the band, the 1st is 'Run For Cover'. 'Overload' have this 'windy' sound or distortion in backwards and i like the beat! It's not too pop, just alright. Kinda sad that original Sugababes members are gone and the Sugababes 4.0 are making what everybody has been doing (except 'Wear My Kiss', I think that was hot).

4.5/5

BACKTRAXX: Everything - M2M

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

Just played my recordings from the old cassette tapes and I heard me singin' this song. I kept on thinking what it is and then everything pops out my mind, yes, It's my favorite song before! 'Everything' was m2m's lead single from their 2nd and last album 'The Big Room'...I used to love this song and it started to grow on me again.

The song is short and sweet definately my favorite m2m track. I like their voices in here and the feel-good sound.

5/5

And the video is my favorite video from them. They're pretty hot, especially Marion (Marit is cute too). JUST WATCH IT!

5/5

BACKTRAXX: We Become One - Nichkhun

Image and video hosting by TinyPic


For those of you who's asking who the hell is this guy, well, Nickhun is a Thai artist and member of a Korean boy band 2PM. 'We Become One' is his 2008 solo song. I don't know if it is a single or not.

The song sounded like the ones you usally hear in a coffee shop but it's sooo addicting after several repeat and it's a fun song. And the language is Thai.

BACKTRAXX: Hold On - B*witched

#nowplaying � 'Rev It Up' - B*Witched � :-) on Twitpic

Since I'm inlove in their songs...it made me research some of B*witched's old songs and I heard this...'Hold On' was supposed to be the lead single from their 3rd untitled album but unfortunately, before that happened...they where eventually dropped by their record company so this is the last song they made that we heard.

This is really a fell-good kinda song and it's pretty refreshing to hear this kind of song since we are being polluted by electropuke I mean electropop nowadays.

BACKTRAXX: Britney Spears - Radar

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

We're going to step 2 years back 2008. 'Radar' was the song of the year for me. Scrapped single from her album 'Blackout' but mysteriously released as a single on her last album 'Circus'...weird. That only means that this song was really hot that it should be in Ms. Spears 2 studio albums!

This is def. my favorite Britney song. From the really hot chorus that other singer would kill to have. The hot beat! The really sexy refrain! And here, Britney actually sounded good even with autotune!

5/5

I can't post the video coz i think it was the most boring vid of her and i don't want to destroy my happiness with the song. For the video:

BACKTRAXX: Brandy - Right Here (Departed)

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

One of my faves Brandy at her best. Right Here (Departed) was the carrier single from her 2008 album 'Human', also one of my favorite album.

The song was produced by Darkchild, the song's message is good, the beat is really great, her voice is just AMAZING and her trademark harmony thing is just out of this world!

5/5

The video for the song was good but nothing really spectacular about it and it kinda fell short compared to the song.

BACKTRAXX: Lindsay Lohan - Rumors

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

"Rumors" is a pop song recorded
by Lindsay Lohan for her debut
album, Speak. It was released as the
album's first and lead single on
September 21, 2004 (see 2004 in
music) in the United States.
Although it failed to chart on the
Billboard Hot 100, it peaked at #6 on
the Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles
chart. It was successful in countries
such as Australia, where it peaked at
#10 on the ARIA Charts, and
Germany where it peaked at #14 on
the Germany Singles Chart.

4.5/5


Production on the music video
began on September 11, 2004 and
MTV included the production of the
video on its television series, Making
the Video. Jake Nava was chosen to
direct the video. Nava is known for
directing music videos for Leona
Lewis and Britney Spears. In the
beginning of the video, Lohan is
followed by paparazzi as she is
entering her car. It is revealed that
this is a Lindsay-look-alike and that
the real Lohan is entering another
car to go to a club. The car comes
to a stop and she then steps into an
elevator and sings the first verse of
the song while she is filmed by a
CCTV camera in the elevator. The
next sequence shows her running
through a hallway, dressed up,
before getting into the club. There,
she dances in the crowd, where she
takes a picture of one of the
paparazzi herself to get back at him.
In the next sequence she is walking
slowly through the club where she
finds the man who seems to be her
boyfriend. She takes a seat next to
her lover and they begin kissing and
touching each other, all the while
being constantly filmed by cameras
in the club. While Lohan sings the
second chorus she is trapped in a
cage in the middle of the club and
the whole crowd is watching her.
After this Lohan is shown dancing in
the club with her friends. At the end
of the music video Lohan and her
friends enter the top of a high-rise
and perform a dance routine while
helicopters are circling around them.
Finally Lohan gets into a helicopter
and escapes. In the end she throws
her camera away with all the
pictures taken of her.
The sexually suggestive video
reached number one on MTV's Total
Request Live and was nominated for
Best Pop Video at the 2005 MTV
Video Music Awards. There is an
unedited version of the song which
is about twelve seconds longer than
the album version because it
features a dance break. The edited
version without the dance break
was never officially released.

BACKTRAXX: RichGirl - He Ain't With Me Now (Tho)

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

My favorite un-popular girl group! By the way, the song was released last 2008 from their 'scrapped' debut album.

The song is pretty hot, with the awesome beats and their powerful voices..YES, all of them can sing, like four Beyonces' in a group.

4.5/5

But the video fell a little bit for me. It has a decent cinematography but lacking in a dance routine. The video is full of close-ups, and I felt like something is really missing.

2.5/5

BACKTRAXX: Kerli - Walking On Air

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

This song was released last 2008 (but i started to feel liking it last month).

The song itself have its vibrant feeling to give to the listeners, but it has a scary refrain.
4/5

The video is a creepy one. Stiletos, mannequins, witches and high fashion dress and a hair that looks exactly like lady gaga.
I FELL INLOVE WITH THE SONG AFTER SEEING THE VIDEO.
5/5

(KERLI CAME OFF FIRST THAN LADY GAGA, so stop the comparing them.)

Enjoy!
