| | The New Seven Wonders of the World |
 | | First of all, the Seven Wonders of the World was a list made up by some Greeks that was supposed to represent well the wonders of the world. |  | | These new Wonders can act as an inspiration to humankind for the next millennia as the original ones have done in the past. |  | | So, if you'll give me a drum roll, I'd like to countdown the New Seven Wonders of the World. |

| | The Seven Natural Wonders of the World |
 | | The world's natural wonders differ from the other grouping of wonders in that they were not made or improved upon by humans. |  | | The local native peoples have known these wonders for millenia, however this list came to the notice of the Western world relatively recently. |  | | Today, these wonders have become places of pilgrimage, where awe is its own reward. |

| | The Seven Wonders of the World |
 | | At the time he sank into this melancholy, Brahms, Tchaikovsky, and Rachmaninoff had not yet been born, to say nothing of the entire genres of ragtime, jazz, Broadway musicals, blues, country and western, rock and roll, samba, reggae, and punk. |  | | As a boy, John Stuart Mill was alarmed to deduce that the finite number of musical notes, together with the maximum practical length of a musical piece, meant that the world would soon run out of melodies. |  | | It is like seeing in color rather than black and white, or listening to music in stereo rather than mono. |

 | | When you listen to Wonders of the World its bouncy and subliminal head bobbing beats become more apparent as you get further into the tracks, despite what may seem to be clashing genres. |  | | I thought it may be difficult to match the LBDA's previous album "Right Back" and still have the credibility earned by "Sublime," however Wonders of the World contains a far more diverse collection of punk, Dub, Ska and hip hop, whilst still remaining fresh and uplifting. |  | | This is a perfect example of that, as we see dub (Wonders Dub), reggae (Listen to DJs), ska-punk (No Way), punk (Every Mother's Dream), hip hop (Life Goes On)and god knows what else blended together. |
