Over The Edge 3 Cd Set (Plus Track Listings & Reviews)

When The Edge was released about 2 years ago, it was such a hit that MusicSpace decided that they had to do it again. This time, they're keeping the formula, the packaging and even the name. The new 3 cd set is called Over The Edge.

Just like it's predecessor, Over The Edge is packed with 50 tracks from bands you know and love (or hate) and promises three hours of high energy, rocking music.

The cd has pretty much the same bands as The Edge with some new ones and I think I spotted a couple repeats but overall it's still another great collection. See the track list after the video.

Over the Edge is available right now at Musicspace.

Over The Edge Track Listing

Over the Edge Disc 1

01. Bad Girlfriend | Theory Of A Deadman
02. Addicted | Saving Abel
03. Fake It | Seether
04. Beverly Hills | Weezer
05. Through Glass | Stone Sour
06. The Adventure | Angels & Airwaves
07. Psycho | Puddle Of Mudd
08. Sugar, We're Going Down | Fall Out Boy
09. All Around Me | Flyleaf
10. Still Frame | Trapt
11. Believe | The Bravery
12. Ladies And Gentlemen | Saliva
13. Makedamnsure | Taking Back Sunday
14. Overcome | Creed
15. I Stand Alone | Godsmack
16. Woman | Wolfmother

Here's Godsmack performing I Stand Alone live in Denver.

Over The Edge Disc 2

01. I Don't Care | Apocalyptica feat. Adam Gontier
02. Boys Of Summer | The Ataris
03. It's Not Over | Daughtry
04. Dare You To Move | Switchfoot
05. Fall To Pieces | Velvet Revolver
06. Lifestyles of The Rich & Famous | Good Charlotte
07. The Red | Chevelle
08. Love Drunk | Boys Like Girls
09. Breakeven | The Script
10. Sweet Disposition | The Temper Trap
11. Break | Three Days Grace
12. Innocent | Our Lady Peace
13. Cold | Crossfade
14. Geraldine | Glasvegas
15. Twisted Transistor | Korn
16. Two Weeks | All That Remains

Switchfoot - Dare You To Move (Live)

18. Higher | Creed

In my opinion, disc 3 is the weakest of the entire collection. For starters, they have Creed (for the second time) with Higher. Kryptonite was on The Edge and Crazytown's Butterfly seems to be on every cd. Hoobastank's Running Away was also on The Edge.

If you don't have The Edge then you won't notice it but if you're planning to get this also then disc 3 will be like getting a cd you already have although it does have some different stuff.

It's a good collection nevertheless and would be great if you bought both The Edge and Over the Edge so you'll have 100 tracks with over 6 hours of the music you love.

And if you think this isn't for you, then you can always try High Voltage which features Marilyn Manson, Powerman 5000 and Rob Zombie just to name a few.

Can you really lose weight with Rob Nevins' Skinny Switch Secret Diet?

Some users of the calorie shifting diet have experienced weight loss using the diet and have said so in various forums online.

I did some research on the diet and found that the Skinny Switch Secret was indeed a good diet that can help people to lose weight effectively.

The diet, based on a method called calorie shifting works by tricking the body into metabolizing the stored fat to reach a preset calorie intake level. For example, if you condition your body to expect 1800 calories a day and you only give it 1400, the body burns the other 400 calories from stored fat causing weight loss.

To prevent the plateau phase which is responsible for many dieters giving up on their diets because they stop seeing results, the body is again tricked into "wondering" what the expected calorie level is by going over the base calorie intake level, for instance eating 2000 calories instead of the base 1800.

With this 3 day cycle of consuming different amounts of calories you lose weight regardless of what you eat making the Skinny Switch or rather the calorie shifting method one of the most appealing diets in recent times. You've probably seen the ads where they tell you that you can eat icecream and pizza. Well, I'm pretty sure calorie shifting is involved somehow.

The problem with the Skinny Switch though (no diet is perfect) is that some may find it a little on the expensive side for a weight loss diet. There are other calorie shifting diets available and one of the most popular ones is Fat Loss 4 Idiots which is also another good diet. Instead of counting calories and fighting to prepare meals that will meet the requirements for each day, you pay for the convenience of meal plans and recipes along with other stuff.

Here's an overview of the Skinny Switch Secret Diet where you will find user reviews and other information about the diet.

Tuesday Tunes: Sugar, Sugar...Is it Christmas Already?

This week on Tuesday Tunes, the first artist/song/album/instrument that comes to mind with a word association.

Play along if you like.

1. Sugar

The first song that comes to mind when I hear the word sugar is...

Sugar, Sugar by The Archies which was a #1 hit in 1969 and still never gets old to this day.

2. Little

Little Richard for some reason popped into my head for the word little. You know, "wap bapalula wap bam boom" or some thing like that. I guess I didn't think about rappers like Lil' Kim and Lil' Bow Wow first because they're Lil' rather than "little".

3. Holly

This one evokes thoughts of Christmas tunes but none in particular. Just the merry sounds of Christmas tunes on the radio making the season festive.

Speaking of Christmas tunes, Mariah Carey's new Christmas album is available.

4. Tree

Tree I guess is too close to Holly and makes me think yet again about Christmas. Christmas trees? Yeah its that season again.

5. Joy

Joy to the World - a traditional Christmas tune.

6. Night

Three Dog Night - They did a song called Joy to the World. It's because I just looked it up on Whosampled.

7. Cold

Coldplay - which I'm not a big fan of but heard a joke about them today.

8. Home

I'll be Home for Christmas - I guess I either can't get Christmas out of my head now or the person who created the meme was in a festive mood.

9. Travel

Makes me think about Travie McCoy's Billionaire because:

Travie sounds like Travel
My mom, my sister and I first heard this when we were travelling by car across I-75 from Ft. Lauderdale to Port Charlotte earlier this year.

Great song and I've heard so many covers, parodies and remakes of the song, some funny, some strange and some just awful.

10. Gift

Now I know they were thinking about Christmas. Too bad this last one makes me think about Jay-Z's Blueprint II: The Gift and The Curse.

Not exactly Christmas-ish and not exactly classic like The Blueprint (which I own) but that's the first thing that popped into my head.

Tuesday Tunes: Music I'm Thankful For in 2010

This week I'm starting a new series called Tuesday Tunes inspired by a meme started by Music Memoirs. They post a question about music and I'm gonna answer it here.

This weeks question, in keeping with the holiday tradition is "What music are you thankful for in 2010?"

It's kinda tough to answer because I'm not too much into all this new music. I still listen to 90's hip hop a lot.

Since joining the website, WhoSampled.com, I've discovered a lot of great music that I never knew about and I'm really enjoying those. The funk music of the 70's, soul of the 60's, electronic music and underground hip hop artists that I hadn't heard about.

The only music that I've been interested in this year is recently, the new Kanye West album, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy.

I guess this is what I'm most thankful for. Kanye's new album is more than just a hip hop album. The guy, no matter how many times he's called a douchebag, is an artist in that he has created a piece of art that will be cherished for years to come. A timeless masterpiece.

This is the type of music I could listen to in 2010 and beyond and it gives me a break from having to play 90's hip hop albums and listen to more current stuff. That is something to be truly thankful for.

Pirates of the Caribbean 4: On Stranger Tides Teaser Trailer Released

I didn't even know they were making another Pirates of the Caribbean movie but now that the teaser trailer has been released I need to go watch Dead Man's Chest and At World's End.

Surprisingly, I haven't seen these two sequels but would have loved to. The original Pirates of the Caribbean movie was shot in my home country, St. Vincent and the Grenadines which makes it a bit special for me.

Pirates is an interesting adventure/fantasy franchise which I hope they don't beat to death. I mean, can you imagine watching Pirates of the Caribbean X: Jack Sparrow vs Captain Hook?

The Trailer

Pirates of the Caribbean 4 Trailer

The movie is set to be released in 3D in 2011 with Johnny Depp returning as Captain Jack Sparrow.

Sandra Bullock - Best Actress Winner Oscars 2010 + Mo'nique

Sandra Bullock won best actress at the 2010 Academy awards for her performance as Leigh Anne Tuohy in the football movie The Blind Side.

I'm really glad she won the Oscar because I read this morning that she won a Razzie Award for her performance in last year's All About Steve.

This is the first time someone has won an Oscar for Best Actress and a Razzie for Worst Actress in the same year so to me, to quote Chris Brown, its like wow!

I first saw Sandra Bullock in the 1994 movie Speed which is one of my favorite suspense movies. I've seen my share of good performances from Ms Bullock and also some bad ones like the unbelievably bad sequel to Speed.

Congrats to Sandra Bullock, 2010's Best Actress Winner who can now be called Academy Award Winning Actress Sandra Bullock in her next trailer or on her next DVD release.

Also congrats to Mo'nique on her Best Supporting Actress award for her performance in Precious. That is a great accomplishment in African American film.

Dr Phil Relationship Rescue Review

Who doesn't know Dr. Phil? Popular TV personality and relationship expert who is as much a part of pop culture as your favorite actor or musical artist.

So when you need relationship advice ourselves, when things are going tough, its only logical that we either seek out "real world" advice or seek the advice of someone we're already familiar with, who has that credibility we seek. We look no further than Dr. Philip McGraw and his book Relationship Rescue.

With Relationship Rescue, Dr. Philip C. McGraw has done a great amount of work to try and help people put their lives back together after things have fallen apart. This is no different from anything else that he has done on television with his show that brings in people who are in the middle of family crisis. If there are problems that people are having, he will help them find a way to solve it themselves.

While it might be better to have Dr. Phil right there with you to help you figure things out, his book, Relationship rescue, provides the next best thing. While it is always recommended to go seek counseling, it may not always be feasible. What makes many efforts to save relationships fail is that there is no action taken. Dr. Phil insists that if your relationship is to be saved, then both parties must work to save it. Any marriage counseling or relationship advice that anyone will give you will let you know that work is involved.

Phil McGraw's book gives people instructions that are very helpful but can be difficult because he challenges both parties in the love relationship to look inwardly and own up to their problems and work to fix them. He tells them that they need to work as hard to fix themselves as they expect their partner or spouse to work on theirs. Relationship Rescue says that even if you think that your significant other is the root of all the problems you must scrutinize yourself.

In Relationship Rescue, Dr. Phil asks readers to perform an self analysis regarding their feelings about the relationship. There are lists of questions that are categorized by topics like, "Relationship Health Profile," "Personal Concepts Profile," "The Relationship Behavior Profile: Your Partner," "The Relationship Behavior Profile: You." Just looking at those headings you know that it is going to require some serious work and thinking that will be well worth it once you see an improvement in not only your perceptions of the relationship, but in the relationship itself.

Dr. Phil's Relationship Rescue also encourages people to change their perspective of the relationship from a negative one to a positive one. Most people make things out to be worse than they are. Changing one's viewpoint of the other in the love relationship may help them see that the problems may be as bad as first thought.

Dr. Phil, as always, gives common sense relationship advice that requires some hard thinking and some hard work. There are millions of people who have taken his advice that he gives in this book and seen dramatic improvements in their lives. If you don't have the patience or the time to read his Relationship Rescue book, there is an abridged audiobook available that makes the information easy to understand but also helps in that you get to listen to his sound advice in his own voice.

If you're looking at Relationship Rescue for advice on getting your ex back, consider T. W Jackson's guide that addresses this problem directly called The Magic of Making Up.

Nokia's XpressMusic Series - 5800

I recently bought a new smartphone - the Nokia XpressMusic 5800. I must say its a really sweet phone where you can download apps from the Nokia Ovi Store, sync your contacts, music and other media and a lot of other stuff.

Today's guest article is a review of the Nokia XpressMusic 5800.

Nokia had previously released the 7710 which is technically it's first touch phone but due to certain unfavorable features and other reasons unknown, the 7710 was a total failure. The 5800 ExpressMusic is a winner from every angle and for once,Nokia fans can rejoice at the 5800 ExpressMusic's brilliance. A hybrid between touch phones and music phones, the 5800 ExpressMusic is doing extremely well in the market and rightly so.

Living up to its music phone tag, the 5800 ExpressMusic has volume keys at its side apart from 3 other keys on the front panel. The screen is a brilliant 3'2 inches which is in fact what most true touch phones are equipped with. The 3'2 inch screen offers a stunning 640x360 display resolution and it's quite unbelievable that a music phone can offer you so much for such little. The 5800 ExpressMusic is also fitted with a stylus which snugly fits in the back and can be used for precision.

Using the latest S60 platform that Nokia has released till date, and with the trademark Nokia Symbian OS version 5, operating system wise the Nokia 5800 is comparable to the larger N97.

An essential of a music phone is a large storage space and the Nokia 5800 ExpressMusic does not disappoint you as it comes with a whopping 8 GB internal memory expandable to 16 GB with the microSD slot that is provided. The camera is the 3.12 usual Nokia affair with the Carl Zeiss lenses, LED flash and autofocus. The inbuilt picture editor comes as a fun bonus and it's a surprise as even many of the so called camera phones don't afford this feature.

You can't expect more from a music phone but the 5800 is further armed to the teeth to take on any phone from the whole range of segments. JAVA and Flash enablement for browsing, and of course Wifi 802.11 and Bluetooth V.2 are also included for easy connectivity and data transfer. Calling the Nokia 5800 ExpressMusic a music phone is actually not justified as it can just as well do everything that a mobile computer can. PDF viewer, Excel and word sheets and TV output complete the 5800 ExpressMusic's awesome arsenal.

The only feature missing in this music phone and yes the only one at all is the Nokia OVI features which allows for GPS navigation but this can be overlooked as voice command navigation and self location is made available with additional software upgrades.

The Nokia 5800 ExpressMusic is arguably the best value for it's money. Weighing a mere 109 grams and providing 35 hours of non stop music playback, I'd go for the 5800 Expressmusic with my eyes closed. Price? $350!

Rihanna Rude Boy Official Video

Rihanna just dropped the official video for Rude Boy off her latest album Rated R.

I haven't bought or listened to the album because Rihanna right now is nowhere in my priorities in terms of music. I used to like her but lately I think she's trying to hard for attention or something. I still bump Hard though. That song is fire.

My expectations for Rude Boy was that it would bring out some of that dancehall flavor that we want to hear from the Caribbean native. However, its still pretty much R&B but the video does bring that dancehall vibe.

After listening to it, I would have to say that the song would have to grow on me and the video despite at times having up to 5 Rihannas and some stuff that 13 year old boys would get wet dreams off of, doesn't really evoke much emotion from me.

Check out Rihanna's new video below - The official Rude Boy video.

#1 Song on My Birthday - December 14th, 1981.

This is an interesting tidbit about myself that I decided to look up today. Its the #1 song on the Billboard charts when I was born on December 14th, 1981.

That would be Olivia Newton-John's Physical.

Let's get physical, physical....

Alright, that doesn't in anyway have much to do with who I am, except that if ONJ was talking to me, I'd be like "hell yeah!"

It's interesting though. You can look up the #1 song on your birthday like I did by doing a Google search for "Billboard #1 song on [insert date here]". There's a Wikipedia page that lists the songs.

Or try this nifty site where you can find the #1 song on your birthday.

Then just share it with me in the comments below.

Wow Spray White 90 Teeth Whitening (As Seen on The Doctors Tv Show)

What happens to your teeth after years of smoking, coffee, drinking soda and wine?

Chances are your teeth begin to get stained and colored with plaque buildup even if you brush your teeth regularly. Visits to the dentist may help but they also cost hundreds and hundreds of dollars and may require you to return repeatedly on a regular basis.

One popular alternative solution is do it yourself home whitening kits such as the one seen on today's episode of The Doctors tv show.

Its called the Spray White 90 Teeth Whitening Kit and is available through Wow Oral Care online.

The Wow Spray White 90 Teeth Whitening promises that you can achieve white teeth at several shades with just one 90 second application. It's also recommended as a "a safe and effective tooth whitening product with periodontal health implications."

In my opinion the Wow Spray White 90 Teeth Whitening product seems a much better one than some of the ones I've seen on the market and of course, because it was recommended on The Doctors tv show that helps with its credibility.

If you're feeling like trying something else, Pearlbrites offers a free 14 day trial.

Facebook Will Automatically Index All Your Information on Google?

Actually, Google will automatically index your Facebook profile so that people who search Google can find your Facebook.

All your information isn't indexed however because you would have decided what you want your people who aren't your friends to see. The same info that non-friends see is what Google indexes. Google would not index your phone number or email address if you've managed your settings correctly.

Of course if you don't want Google to index your profile, the option to do something about this is in your hands.

All you need to do is adjust your privacy settings.

If you don't want Google to automatically index all your Facebook info, just log into your account and:

Go to Settings.
Click on Privacy Settings or Manage Privacy
Click on Search
Uncheck "Allow indexing"

Furthermore Facebook has this to say:

Worried about privacy? Your information is safe.

There have been misleading rumors recently about Facebook indexing all your information on Google. This is not true. Facebook created public search listings in 2007 to enable people to search for your name and see a link to your Facebook profile.

Sony Cybershot DSC W220 Review

I bought a Sony Cybershot DSC W220 digital camera today. Its one of the light blue ones and I was sold on the fact that it was a 12.1 MP camera with 4x optical zoom. Most of the other ones only had 3x optical zoom.

So far, since I've been playing with it, I think I really like its simplicity and all the features that it has. Here's a review of the Sony Cybershot DSC W220.

The Sony Cybershot DSC W220 is up against some pretty stiff competition. Panasonic, Olympus and Nikon all produce digital cameras that are in direct competition with the Cybershot DSC W220.

This camera is small enough to slip into most pockets. It is mid priced. The design is unfussy and has that typical rectangular look. Sony offers the camera in three different colours: black, silver and light blue.

When looking at the other cameras in this category Sony has added in a fair number of features for the price. These include face detection for better portrait shots and image stabilisation to help compensate for any movements of the camera caused by unsteady hands. The Cybershot DSC W220 is also one of the few small cameras to be able to accept a conversion lens and filters. A conversion lens can increase the length of the lens or increase the wide angle capabilities of the camera. Using filters can add different effects to your photos.

There are resolutions that allow you to take photos that are ideal for printing 6 x 4 inch snapshot photos or for making wide prints or playing back on a widescreen television. For close up work the Cybershot DSC W220 can focus from an impressive 4cm. As well as offering the standard movie modes you are also able to produce High Definition movie clips. This does not make the Cybershot DSC W220 a replacement for your camcorder, but it can come in handy from time to time.

One area that digital cameras struggle with is the dynamic range of a photo. This is how well the camera can bring out detail in the lighter and darker areas of a photograph, especially when there are high levels of contrast in a shot. To try and help the camera Sony has introduced a dynamic range enhancer that can be turned on and off. Other features include being able to boost colours with a vivid colour setting as well as being able to switch to black and white or sepia.

More advanced features include a burst mode that allows you to fire off up to 100 high speed shots. There are also three types of metering at your disposal (Multi Pattern, Centre weighted, Spot).

When it comes to picture quality one of my biggest concerns was that Sony has packed so many pixels onto such a small sensor that some areas of my pictures were prone to show pixilation. This is where pixels start to look jagged and if you blow the picture up to a large size you can start to make out groups of pixels. This can detract from the overall smoothness of a shot. You may find that picture quality actually improves when shooting at lower resolutions.

The 12 megapixels Sony has packed in can come in handy if you are thinking of cropping any photos before printing. Another advantage is that additional zoom becomes available when shooting at lower resolutions.
The 4x zoom lens is a little wider than most digital cameras offer. This helps you when taking wide scenes such as landscape shots.

Picture quality fell below what some direct competitors offer. As well as the pixilation I noticed purple fringing could become an issue. I could see purple lines added to the tops of trees for example or if I was taking close up shots of shiny objects. The sharpness of the pictures was also a little down on what I am used to seeing. In fairness these problems only really become an issue if you are planning to make larger prints. At snapshot size you are unlikely to really notice these imperfections.

The Edge 3 Cd Set w/ Tracklistings (As Seen on Tv)

The other night while watching Comedy Central, I saw an ad for The Edge, a new 3 cd set filled with a lot of rock cuts that you'd instantly recognize.

They're some of the biggest hits of this decade (and the 90s) and The Edge has them on 3 cds. 50 tracks in all. I immediately went looking for the cd online and found it at MusicSpace.com.

The Edge has an incredible tracklist but I think there should be more. Still its a good collection of hits that I like banging out to. You can load this into the Cd changer in the car or pop one in while you work out.

Here's the tracklist for The Edge Cd.

The Edge Disc 1.

01. The Kill (Bury Me) | Thirty Seconds To Mars
02. Are You Gonna Be My Girl | Jet

My favorites on this disc are Korn's Freak on a leash, The Kill, Evanescence's Bring me Back to Life and Remedy by Seether just to name a few of these awesome songs.

You can get The Edge 3 Cd Set at MusicSpace.com.

Your Hip Hop Beat Creator Should Have These 3 Things.

Trying to make some beats for that new demo? Todays article points out 3 important must haves for choosing a beat creator. You could be the next respected hip hop producer like Dr. Dre or DJ Premier.

The production of hip hop beats has advanced tremendously since the old days. Especially with the quality hip hop beat creators out there. Today, it has never been easier to create quality hip hop beats. When your looking for a hip hop beat creator you must make sure it has certain characteristics.

First of all it should have quality midi drum patterns. Good rap beats have different drum patterns playing at the same time that compliment each other. Your beat creator should allow you to do the same. This feature will allow you to separate your beats from the other average ones.

Secondly, your beat creator has got to give you the ability to implement quality basslines into your beat. A rap beat without a strong bassline sounds dead. You have to put some life into your beats and using a basssline is the right way to do so.

Your beat creator should allow you to adjust and tweak your bassline because you want your bassline to sound just right. You don't want your bassline too strong or it will over power your song and you don't want it too weak or you won't even hear it.

Finally, your beat creating software should allow you to use many samples as your heart desires. Your beat maker should also allow you to use a remote storage bank to store as many samples as you need so your limit is endless.

So if you want to produce your next classic rap beat you have to make sure you have a good hip hop beat creator. Your beat maker should also have a few other features as well, but if it has these 3 things then you should have no problems making the best beats possible.

Click Here to take a look at the Best Hip Hop Beat Creator and check out all the resources a producer needs to improve his/her skill level at Programs To Make Beats.

10 Tweets Review: Zombieland

This week's edition of 10 Tweets looks at the new comedy Zombieland which looks like fun because I like movies with zombies and Woody Harrelson. Was the movie actually fun though? Moviegoers on Twitter share their experience but first an overview.

Director: Ruben Fleischer
Starring: Woody Harrelson, Jesse Eisenberg, Emma Stone, Abigail Breslin
Runtime: 80 mins.
MPAA Rating: R

Synopsis: Two men have found a way to survive a world overrun by zombies. Columbus is a big wuss -- but when you're afraid of being eaten by zombies, fear can keep you alive. Tallahassee is an AK-totin', zombie-slayin' badass whose single determination is to get the last Twinkie on earth. As they join forces with Wichita and Little Rock, who have also found unique ways to survive the zombie mayhem, they will have to determine which is worse: relying on each other or succumbing to the zombies.

And now lets see what our Twitter moviegoers are saying:

Wow an overwhelming response to Zombieland! Everyone who saw it loved it. Zombieland gets a rating of 10 out of 10 - a first since we started reviewing movies like this. It was very hard to find anyone on Twitter who didn't like Zombieland. I'm definitely going to check it out and you should too.

And an awesome bonus tweet:
