1. “Once Upon a Dream” by Lana Del Ray (from Maleficent) – (soundtrack) After debuting stateside a couple years back and then tackling last year’s The Great Gatsby (notably with “Young and Beautiful”), Lana Del Ray moves on to lend her beautiful, harrowing voice to another soundtrack – for Disney’s upcoming Maleficent. “Once Upon a Dream”…

Radio Bobby: Top 5 New Music Releases (1/20)
1. “Us Again” by Chuck Wicks – (country) a successful follow-up, or continuation rather, to his 2013 EP Rough, Chuck Wicks delivers another stellar country song about reminiscence and rekindling old love. His vocals soar as he continues to be one of country music’s dark horses and best, most underrated stars. 2. “Diamond and Silver” by Barcelona –…
Radio Bobby: Top 5 New Music Releases (1/13)
Welcome to the first edition of #RadioBobby for 2014. Last year, I tracked 300+ songs (all year). This week alone, I sampled/tracked 32 songs! If this week is any indication of things to come, it’ll be a great year for the music biz. Let’s get to our Top 5 of the week, shall we? 1. “Laughter Lines”…
The 2013 Bobby-james Awards: Music + Top 50 Songs
This year I’ve introduced you to Radio Bobby – but that wasn’t until this past summer. Radio Bobby is my way of sharing what I think are the week’s best new music releases – but that has no indication on how things wind up for a Top 50 countdown at the end of the year. …
Radio Bobby: Top 5 New Music Releases (12/9)
Forgive me for the consistent time lapses between Radio Bobby posts! Some weeks, I’m not finding five new releases that I like enough, or care enough about, to create a Radio Bobby list – and other weeks, I find myself too lost in Lady GaGa or Christmas music to care. Invalid excuses, I know. So…
Radio Bobby: Top 5 New Music Releases (11/18)
An apocalyptic takeover of Radio Bobby by Lady GaGa’s ARTPOP left last week’s new music releases out in the cold (hey, it snowed here last week – so they were literally left out in the cold!). So this week, I’ll be using my Top 5 format to rank new music from this week and last week. …
Radio Bobby: Top 5 ARTPOP songs
Radio Bobby goes GaGa! I know I’m posting late this week (and in fact, I haven’t posted in a LONG TIME) so I figured I’d dedicate this edition or Radio Bobby to ARTPOP! Let me start by saying that I’ve had a mixed reaction to Mother Monster’s most recent effort. Previously, I’ve found myself rushing…
Radio Bobby: Top 5 New Music Releases (10/8)
Radio Bobby and I are baaaaaaaaack. Ok, so I took an unannounced hiatus from the site. I was going to give you all a Radio Bobby two weeks ago, but I couldn’t find 5 new songs I liked. Then last week I thought, “Ok, great – I can do a Radio Bobby…” but again, I…
Radio Bobby: Top 5 New Music Releases (9/9)
Pop vs. Country. – seems to be the recent battle on Radio Bobby. New directions by each of the genres are churning out amazing songs and vocals – so this should come as no surprise. Last week, the list was topped by a Canadian pop icon and a Texan country music band. This week, the…
Radio Bobby: Top 5 New Music Releases (9/2)
It’s September! Where is 2013 going? To the music – in a neck-and-neck battle between Pop and Country. This year has been great, and the last few weeks have proven that this is going to be a milestone year for the music industry – this week is no exception! Topping the chart? One of music’s…
