Tell me some awesome music I just *have* to listen to?

[RevolutionaryActs]

I'm bored and need some new music. So give it up lounge! :P



My newest find is The Duke Spirit.

:hi:

[KitchenWitch]

1. k.d. lang's version of Hallelujah!

Haunting and beautiful.

[RevolutionaryActs]

5. And her cover of Helpless.

:cry:

[taterguy]

2. The pair of Golden Palominos albums from the 80s Visions of Excess and Blast of Silence

Have you heard them?

If not, they're new to you

I'm sure you've heard some of the people who performed on them: Michael Stipe, Jack Bruce, Johnny Lydon, Richard Thompson, Matthew Sweet, Bernie Worrell, and the proverbial much much more

[RevolutionaryActs]

8. Sounds interesting.

I'll check it out. :thumbsup:

[cemaphonic]

61. Yeah, those are great and underappreciated albums

I like the early 90s Lori Carson fronted ones too, but they're very different in tone and style.

[Mutley]

3. No!

:D

[RevolutionaryActs]

9. Mean!

x(

[Mutley]

17. Well, I don't know what I'd know that you don't know.

:P

[RevolutionaryActs]

19. Just post some random youtube links.

And I'll be happy. I'm bored, and sleepy, and don't want to go looking for them on my own. :P

[Mutley]

27. Okies!

[RevolutionaryActs]

28. Before I clicked that I thought to myself..

"She's gonna rickroll me."


Instead I get Dusty. Yay! :bounce:

[Mutley]

30. I would never dream of rickrolling you.

:evilgrin:

[RevolutionaryActs]

35. Sure sure.

Speaking of which... give this until about 1:10.

[Mutley]

47. Mmm, I'm at work, so I can't look at it right now.

.......

...........

Not sure I wanna look at it when I get home, either. :scared:

[Iggo]

49. Aw, that's my girlfriend right there.

I've had it bad for her ever since I was like 10 yrs old.

[Mutley]

52. Yeah, me too.

:shrug:

:D

[Iggo]

55. I can see it.

;-)

[Mutley]

56. Apparently that was my favorite song even as a wee one.

I'm told stories of how I danced and danced and danced. :blush: :D

[Iggo]

50. Oops. Dupe.

Cookie issue, methinks.

[Danger Mouse]

4. El-P, Aesop Rock, Neko Case, New Pornographers, Modest Mouse,

Listen to some of that.

[RevolutionaryActs]

6. I know them already.

I SAID NEW! :eyes:

[Danger Mouse]

16. Why does it have to be 'new'?

:P

[RevolutionaryActs]

18. New to me.

And I already know the bands you listed. MOVE ALONG! :P

[Danger Mouse]

20. Fickle brat.

[RevolutionaryActs]

22. Is this something you just discovered?

If so, you're rather slow, aren't you?

[Danger Mouse]

23. You're rather lippy tonight.

:grr:

[RevolutionaryActs]

26. I'm tired.

And I feel sassy, so I am. :P

[Danger Mouse]

37. Well don't take it out on me, Ms. Sassypants.

:P :spank:

[RevolutionaryActs]

38. Isn't that what you're here for?

:shrug:

[Danger Mouse]

39. Is it?

:P

[RevolutionaryActs]

40. Well we all know you like it..

:P

[Danger Mouse]

45. I haven't the slightest idea what you're talking about.

:P

[AlCzervik]

7. Here you go, something new.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRVi0paZlfI

[RevolutionaryActs]

10. It might be wrong, but I love Weird Al.

:P

[AlCzervik]

12. i'm so sick of the original but i thought that was kind of funny. I have a bet with my daughter

that TI is going to sell that song to Burger King, it's only a matter of when and for how much.

[RevolutionaryActs]

15. In two years.

When he runs out of cash. :P

[AlCzervik]

24. i think he better get going just in case he gets jail time on that weapon charge.

strike while the iron's hot.

[Xipe Totec]

11. I'm pushing Silbermond tonight...

Silbermond - German Rock Band

http://link.brightcove.com/services/player/bcpid1305025354?bclid=336002323&bctid=10463767001


My latest discovery; I have a feeling you'll appreciate it:

The video is very edgy; The lead singer is singing in the middle of a street riot, a mob is wailing on the cops with sticks, tear gas flying one way, molotovs flying the other way.

Not the type of video that's likely to pass muster with US sensors.

[RevolutionaryActs]

14. That was fantastic.

I have no idea what she's saying, but I get what she's feeling. Awesome! Thanks!

[Xipe Totec]

29. Rough translation...

Tell me that this place is safe here
and everything is good here still.
And that the word that you give me today,
tomorrow you will keep.

This world is fast
and has constantly to be unlearned.
Because Temptations continue their deadline.
But please swear that when I come back,
everything will be the same.

Give me a little bit of security
in a world in which nothing seems safe.
Give me that one thing in this difficult time.

Give me just a little bit of grip.
And just cradle me to safety.
Get me out of this fast time.
Give me a little bit of speed.

Tell me that something still remains.

Even if the world goes,
that 'here' is not affected.
.. Nothing happens ..

Give me a little bit of security
in a world in which nothing seems safe.
Give me that one thing in this difficult time.

Give me just a little bit of grip.
And just cradle me to safety.
Get me out of this fast time.
Give me a little bit of speed.

Tell me that... something still remains.

[RevolutionaryActs]

33. I love it even more now!

:D

[Aristus]

13. Mozart's Mass in C minor. Or his Piano Concerto #20 in D minor.

Astonishing, breathtaking pieces of work...

[travelingtypist]

21. Easter by Marillion.

Then Repentence by Dream Theater.

Both should be on pandora.com.

[mvd]

25. You just gave me one to try out more, so here's one for you

Try Andrew Bird:

[RevolutionaryActs]

32. Oh, I like. He kind of reminds me of Matt Costa.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j6AsFElxgC0&feature=PlayList&p=0C976AD7847A0E20&playnext=1&playnext_from=PL&index=15

From the 1989 album "Cosmic Thing"... :party:

[elshiva]

34. You have to listen to:

[RevolutionaryActs]

36. Can't I just look at John Barrowman?

:9

[elshiva]

41. Of course you can look at him, but you can also listen to him.

SIGH. :loveya: :loveya: Great voice, too. I only picked that one cd because it's a good place to start.

You HAVE to see this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BdSszlp8aVQ&feature=related

[RevolutionaryActs]

42. He does have very nice voice.

:o

[elshiva]

43. Did you watch the video? That song brings tears to my eyes.

[RevolutionaryActs]

44. Yes, it was great!

:D

[elshiva]

46. Thanks, you're great, too.

:hug: :hug:

[no name no slogan]

48. The Comsat Angels

www.comsat-angels.net

The greatest band that never made it. They also have a few things out on YouTube.

They're reuniting for a show in April in their native Sheffield. Amazing group who should've been huge. :cry:

[stewartcolbert08]

51. Depends on what you like

but I recently was introduced to Senses Fail, they are kinda punkish, here is a link.

http://www.mtvmusic.com/senses_fail

[RevolutionaryActs]

54. I'll give anything a try.

Even country. :o



I like Punk! :thumbsup:

[stewartcolbert08]

57. Let me know what you think

I like them! Also the new Seether CD is awesome!

[RevolutionaryActs]

58. I'm enjoying them.

:thumbsup:

[mitchum]

53. Bitches Brew by Miles Davis is a motherfucker

An addictive record
Particularly "Miles Runs The Voodoo Down"

[EastTennesseeDem]

59. The album of the millennium (so far)

depending on if you consider 2000 is this millennium or last.

[greendog]

60. Weed Smokers Dream (Why Don't You Do Now)

The Harlem Hamfats, 1936
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uyjW8FTGxbI

[cemaphonic]

62. I just discovered William Elliot Whitmore the other day.

He's this 30-year-old from Iowa who has the soul and voice of one of those ancient grizzled bluesmen.

From his lyrics, I'd say that he's probably not such a fan of the war or the bunch that started it either (although most of his songs aren't especially political)

[Lethe]

63. if you like Roots Reggae / Dub

Ticklah vs. Axelrod

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ra9CPhS664s&feature=related

If you don't like Dub, joke a smoint and then listen again when your eyelids relax and your scleras branch red

[Droopy]

64. Y'all don't know what it's like being male, middle class, and white

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5RNIZ_0qkpk&feature=Play...

[sasquatch]

65. Minutemen - This Ain't No Picnic

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tzyzVZZfUfM

[cherish44]

66. I dunno...I like anything by Led Zeppelin myself

They have a song for just about every mood

[pokerfan]

67. Beethoven's Quartet in C-minor

Wait, you wanted new music. Stravinsky's Rite of Spring. :)

[LeftyMom]

68. Propaghandi's new album, Supporting Caste, is all kinds of awesome.

Linkies to more songs on the side of this one.
