The path to success started to become clearer. Padi was signed for 4 albums under Sony’s label. Their debut album, Lain Dunia, was released a year after, August 6, 1999. Though slowly, the sales was a surely one. More and more people knew PADI after their singles became hit songs. Begitu Indah, Demi Cinta, Seperti Kekasihku, and Mahadewi, to mention but a few. Mahadewi became a hit after its clip was released and topped music charts on TV channels as well as radios nationwide.

Their second album, Sesuatu Yang Tertunda, was released July 2nd, 2001. Some 450,000 copies were sold when it was firs launched. What people would undoubtedly remember from this album is the all-time, legendary hit, “Kasih Tak Sampai”. Many said it would be PADI’s everlasting song, which would be forever remembered.

Save My Soul, the third album, was released June 18, 2004, but launched June 24, 2004. The launching creates such a buzz, as PADI performed on the rooftop of a fast food restaurant at Sarinah - Thamrin, broadcasted live on a private TV channel in Indonesia. The album was said to be full of surprises, as many commented the songs were complicated and rather “off” for market’s taste at the moment. However, it even indicated PADI’s sincerity in music. It was on this third album also that PADI finally brought their dream to collaborate with their music icon, Iwan Fals, into reality in Sesuatu Yang Tertunda. The album was sold 500,000 copies within a week.

1984 was a successful record not only because it contained solid, catchy hard rock, but also because it incorporated synthesizers into the mix, the first metal album to do so to any serious extent. Although the advances in electronic music make this material sound dated now, it's still a highlight of Van Halen's career. Songs like "Jump" contain a pop element that gave 1984 mainstream appeal, and David Lee Roth turned the frontman role into an art form on songs such as "Panama," "Hot for Teacher," "Drop Dead Legs," and "I'll Wait." To a large extent, it was 1984 that set the standard for '80s pop metal, and David Lee Roth who set the standard (or takes the blame, depending on your point of view) for the aggressively good-time attitude most pop-metal bands took for their own.

This album was the last one that David Lee Roth recorded with Van Halen and he definitely left on a high note. This is a very fun album. This song seems to have set the tone for a lot of bands in the years following.

Eddie Van Halen, well-known for his guitar prowess but also a classically-trained pianist, used 1984 as an opportunity to take the band into different territory. Eddie Van Halen's keyboard playing is more prominent on 1984 than on any prior Van Halen album, Additionally, 1984 was the first Van Halen album to be recorded at Eddie Van Halen's home studio, 5150. The studio lent its name to Van Halen's next album, the first with former Montrose vocalist/guitarist and solo artist Sammy Hagar.

Commemorating the 40th anniversary of Nat King Cole's death in 1965, this compilation is the CD companion of an excellent DVD/documentary. Produced with the blessing of his estate, this disc is a thorough survey of his timeless genius--all recorded on the Capitol label. It captures his sumptuous and soothing tenor voice crooning on the pop tunes he made famous, like the ethereal "Nature Boy," the melancholy "Mona Lisa," and the bouncy "Straighten Up and Fly Right," and "Route 66." It also features Cole's often-overlooked skills as an Earl Hines-style pianist. "Quizas, Quizas, Quizas (Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps)," and "Darling, Je Vous Aime Beaucoup," attest to his international appeal, and see if you can keep a dry eye when you listen to Natalie Cole's posthumous, digitally-enhanced duet with her father on "Unforgettable." From strings to big bands, Nat King Cole is never out of style.

The Rolling Stones are an English band whose music was initially based on rhythm and blues and rock & roll. Formed in London and having their first success in the UK, they subsequently became popular in the US during the "British Invasion" in the early 1960s.

The band formed in 1962 when original leader Brian Jones and pianist Ian Stewart were joined by singer Mick Jagger and guitarist Keith Richards, whose songwriting partnership later contributed to their taking the leadership role in the group. Bassist Bill Wyman and drummer Charlie Watts completed the early lineup. Ian Stewart was removed from the official lineup in 1963 but continued to work with the band as road manager and keyboardist until his death in 1985.
