What are you listening to?

[Haly]

Yeah i know it's a bit spammy :p But I figure with a smaller group, it might be a bit more interesting.
So what you listening to at the moment?

Me:

[Feek]

All the other people in the office nattering on the phone :(

Will post more sensibly when I'm at home with tunes on.

[petemc]

{Playing} "Rise" - Artist: Yoko Kanno - Album: Ghost in the Shell - Stand Alone Complex OST 2

Been watching some GitS last night. Forgot just how damn good it was.

[Zirax]

Oasis - I hope, I think, I know
edit: John Mayer - body is a wonderland. General chilled out music, very easy listening, I would recommend having a listen to some of his stuff, samples available on Amazon http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0000ALSDR/qid=1152533765/sr=2-1/ref=pd_bbs_b_2_1/104-4198640-6743956?s=music&v=glance&n=5174

[William]

Oceansize - Effloresce

[Will]

Cafe del Mar Volume Ocho

[Burble]

Whilst waiting for the others to arrive so my meeting can start:

Porcupine Tree - Arriving Somewhere But Not Here

I'm learning it on gee-tar for the BBQ. :cool:

[Daz]

WOOOT :D

Is True doable as well?

I'm almost certain, I'm seriously expanding my repetoire at the moment!

[Daz]

Quality :cool:

[Burble]

Pink Floyd - Dark Side Of The Moon :cool:

[leowyatt]

I'm currenly listening to Epsiode 39 of We Hate Tech. Will probably be moving onto this weeks OTH after that :)

bit of smooth jazz to start the day.

[Garp]

Been listening to
Dave Matthews Band - Live In Chicago

Quality stuff :)

[Burble]

Pure Reason Revolution - Bullitts Dominae

[leowyatt]

Been listening to
Dave Matthews Band - Live In Chicago

Quality stuff :)

Excellent band, shame they never come tour the UK. Was gutted as on the last trip the states I missed a gig by 6 days :(

[William]

Last night was the Village's vaguely folkish rock festival.


This morning it is a nice and cliched song for the time,

Sunday Morning - Lou Reed & Velvet Underground.

[Flibster]

Currently listening to a recording I made over the weekend of a live act at...

Rhythms of the World (www.rotw.org.uk)

The act was done by Smokin' Dick Burns :D

And this is how he was introduced...

"A large drunken buffoon with a guitar. He's suffered for his art and now it's your turn!"

Says it all really. :D

Simon/~Flibster

[Jenjey]

Regina Spektor - Samson :)

[Burble]

Meshuggah - Chaosphere

Nothing like some Norwegian Death Metal to:

1 - Relax
2 - Get loitering people out of my office

[Garp]

John Mayer - Room for Squares. Good music to chill out to of a hot summer evening.

[Burble]

I'm currently watching (and listing to) the Pink Floyd 'Pulse' DVD which arrived this morning. The amp is most definately cranked up to 11.

[Zirax]

Good call on John Mayer Garp :)

Currently listening to Feeder - we can't rewind

Semisonic - DND

[William]

Frank Sinatra - Fly Me Too The Moon.



Does anyone think a Karaoke Thread would be a good idea?

[Haly]

All I have - Snow Patrol, just listening to the new album.

[Zirax]

Just as something rather random
BHG - Foxtrot Uniform Charlie Kilo

Listening to their new album, BHG are back on form :D

[Belmit]

Does anyone think a Karaoke Thread would be a good idea?

Yes, absolutely!


Currently listening to Live Forever, trying to learn that damn guitar solo.

[Burble]

No-Man - Returning Jesus.

I'm listening to the newly released vinyl version which sounds fantastic. How I love the sound of vinyl.

[Zirax]

Powerman 5000 - Free
Nice and loud song, refreshing change from the calmer stuff I listen to

[LeperousDust]

Faithless - Insomnia, from there greatest hits album or whatever. As a first track it rocks :)

[Kell_ee001]

Bowling For Soup - 1985

I think the video's funny ;D

[Burble]

The Verve - Urban Hymns. Oh the memories :'(

[Mohinder]

Bright Eyes - At The Bottom Of Everything

Booootiful :)

[William]

Bright Eyes - At The Bottom Of Everything

Booootiful :)

I know its bad and wrong and childish but I can't listen to Bright Eyes without having a go at the Conor Oberst wobble. :(

[Daz]

The Verve - Urban Hymns. Oh the memories :'(
Top album that.

Just flung the Kooks on this morning. Server decided to down itself over the weekend so now I have to dig through logs and dumps to find out why :rolleyes:

[Flibster]

Jeremy Saxon - Blue Weekend

*waits for all the Eh?'s*

[Belmit]

Kernkraft 400 - Zombie Nation ;D

[Daz]

Chooon :D

[Burble]

To drown out the sound of the people in the next room shagging, I'm listening to Tool - Vicarious.

[Roberta]

I like to drown out the sound of people shagging - by shagging.

[William]

I just don't try and drown it out. :evil:

[Burble]

I like to drown out the sound of people shagging - by shagging.

Nice idea, but alas, I'm here alone :(

[Garp]

Top album that.

Just flung the Kooks on this morning. Server decided to down itself over the weekend so now I have to dig through logs and dumps to find out why :rolleyes:

Ohh the fun! I'm getting quite familiar with grepping and lessing logs on servers looking for particular events occuring to try and track down whats going on when customers are trying to do things.

Been listening to a mix of stuff this week:

Fred Hammond - Radical For Christ (I admit it.. I have a weak spot for Gospel music)

Razorlight - Up All Night (Qualty album)

The Feeling - Twelve Stops and Home (Absolute and utter rubbish)

[Daz]

Ohh the fun! I'm getting quite familiar with grepping and lessing logs on servers looking for particular events occuring to try and track down whats going on when customers are trying to do things.
Oh if only, these are Doze servers :( Though I wrote a vBscript to parse and log (or email me, if the logs are still live) certain pre-flagged events, which usually gives me a good clue. The fun starts when I don't get any hits :(

Razorlight - Up All Night (Qualty album)
Hell yeah. Heard the new one?

The Feeling - Twelve Stops and Home (Absolute and utter rubbish)
Only listened to it a couple of times but still undecided on this one. Just not your sort of music, or a genuine dislike?

[Haly]

I like The Feeling album. It's nothing amazing or hugely memorable, but it's entertaining imo. It's probably not got the lasting factor though, give it a little while and i'll probably never listen to it again.

[Garp]

Hell yeah. Heard the new one?

Not yet.. will grab it soon.

Only listened to it a couple of times but still undecided on this one. Just not your sort of music, or a genuine dislike?

okayish tunes, albeit a supreme example of bland songwriting, it just doesn't work for me as an album in any way shape or form *shrug*

[Flibster]

Brian Setzer Orchestra - Jump, Juve and Wail - The Very Best of...

Nothing quite like a bit of boogie/swing to get my mind working.

Simon/~Flibster

[William]

Bjork - The Pleasure Is All Mine.

[Belmit]

Just listened to the whole of MJ's Bad. Speeeed Demooooooon! :)

[leowyatt]

Currently I'm listening to Barbers Adagio for String the original version but it's being played again and again as I'm waiting in the queue to get through to Acer :( now don't get me wrong it's a stonking tune but if it's the only tune being played it gets a bit boring after you've heard it for the 30th time :(

[Flibster]

Now onto an Audio book.
The Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy - read by Douglas Adams. :D

[William]

Get it on

Your going to do T-Rex eh?

[Garp]

Hell yeah. Heard the new one?


Okay.. I've now listened to Razorlight - Razorlight.

Good album, quality tunage.

HOWEVER: Do they have to use the same raw/jagged sounding guitar tone for ever single track? Its like they've just got their guitars using bridge humbuckers and tone whacked to 10, the entire time. No attempt to get any kind of tonal variation in there at all. Even just for sheer variety it would be good to hear a track with neck single pickups being used or the like.

[Dymetrie]

Suppose I should contribute here...

After getting the 2GB memory card for my M600, I decided (unlike Feek) to put some music on it so that I could listen to stuff on the move... So whenever I'm not sat at home listening to XFM or my flatmate's odd music/guitar playing then I'm listening to something from this little lot:

Audioslave - Audioslave
Deftones - White Pony
Disturbed - The Sickness
Drowning Pool - Sinner
Foo Fighters - The Colour and the Shape
Godhead - 2000 Years of Human Error
Killswitch Engage - Alive or Just Breathing
Korn - Follow the Leader
Korn - Untouchables
Limp Bizkit - Results May Vary
Linkin Park - Meteora
Marilyn Manson - The Golden Age of Grotesque
Metallica - St Anger
Nightwish - Wishmaster
Nine Inch Nails - The Downward Spiral
Puddle of Mud - Come Clean
Queens of the Stone Age - Songs for the Deaf
Rage Against the Machine - The Battle of Los Angeles
Static X - Machine
Stone Sour - Stone Sour
System of a Down - (er pretty much all of their albums :p)
Wolfsheim - Spectators

I've definitely found 2GB to be better than the little 512MB card my K750i had :)

[William]

Audioslave - Audioslave


Its been a while since I listened to that...

I just read the Pitchfork review for it, christ it's overly scathing.... :-/

[Daz]

Linkin Park - Meteora
Hybrid Theory > Meteora

[Dymetrie]

Its been a while since I listened to that...

I just read the Pitchfork review for it, christ it's overly scathing.... :-/
The worrying thing is that with Audioslave and RatM both in the random playlist sometimes I get confused... But then Chris Cornell or Zach de la Roche start singing and everything is clear...

*loads Hybrid Theory onto his phone as well to keep the metro happy*

[Daz]

;)

[Haly]

Hybrid Theory > Meteora
Definitely. Meteora was just a bit 'meh' :/

[William]

*loads Hybrid Theory onto his phone as well to keep the metro happy*

I agree with the article in that they are both very predictable. Drum crescendo, ah one a two ah three ah four - Bass in repetitive growl. ;D

[Haly]

Everlong - Foo Fighters :cool:

[Kell_ee001]

Otis Reading - Sitting On The Dock Of The Bay :)

[Stan_Lite]

Otis Reading - Sitting On The Dock Of The Bay :)

Niiiice :cool:

Bob Marley - Redemption Song.

Stan :)

[Daz]

This mornings album is Dirty Pretty Things - Waterloo to Anywhere

[Flibster]

Currently listening to the Blues Agents and the Jive Aces...

Will have some 1930's Jazz on later. :D

Simon/~Flibster

[Garp]

Seth Lakeman - Freedom Fields

A superb folky album full of new old-style folk songs :)

[Flibster]

Just started listening to a new release thats been pushed a lot on TV...
The Puppini Sisters - Betcha Bottom Dollar

If you like the 1940's swing/jazz/big band stuff then it's fabulous.

I'd even say it's better than The Andrews Sisters :shocked:

Simon/~Flibster

[Daz]

This morning: Scissor Sisters - Scissor Sisters

Love this album.

[leowyatt]

Rather Geeky here but I'm listening to episodes of TWiT.

[Dee]

The latest addition to my iPod is something very kindly donated by Daz the other night :D You git, I cant stop listening to it!!!!

[Matblack]

[Daz]

No worries. I cant say it was a chore :D

[Dee]

No worries. I cant say it was a chore :D

Maybe not, but you didnt have to do it :)

[Daz]

I owe you one anyway. You are letting me have a bounce after all ;)

[Dee]

I owe you one anyway. You are letting me have a bounce after all ;)

:shocked: You can have a bounce anytime ;) Grab me on MSN this weekend about that :)

[Daz]

Will do :) If I'm not about I'll just text you.

[Stan_Lite]

Back on topic.

Currently listening to the Dead Kennedys' version of Viva Las Vegas. I love this version so much - far better than the Burger King's version :cool:

Stan :)

[William]

That is a good version, the DKs did loads of covers that I liked.


I am listening to this Ray Charles compliation which I found under a bed in a caravan.

[Burble]

Opeth - Deliverance.

I find death metal very, very relaxing. I also find the bottle of whisky I just opened pretty good for relaxation too.

[lostkat]

Mint Royale with Lauren Laverne - Don't Falter

One of my favourite summery songs. Makes me grin everytime I hear it :)

[Mark]

G'Day from Australia - various

OK, so not anyone's usual choice, but it suits the mood. :D

[Rich_L]

Right now, Donavon Frankenreiter - mmmm chhhiiiiiillllllllled :cool:

T'other weekend was on a ram-packed train from Paddington down to Cornwall, every seat taken and all the aisles packed with people...was v. glad that just prior to my journey had slapped on the Jack Johnson album & Donavon...in amongst the stressed out commuters was just leaning back and thinking of the beach and had a smile on my face for the entire hot, sweaty, ram-packed journey. It was good. :cool:

[Kell_ee001]

Moulin Rouge Soundtrack! ;D

[Haly]

Moulin Rouge Soundtrack! ;D
Same here ;D

[Kell_ee001]

Same here ;D

\o/

[Mark]

I can see I'm going to have to go by Moulin Rouge now. Actually, I'm sure I'll like it as I've been to shows like Mamma Mia!

Anyway, currently chilling out to loads of stuff by Tony O'Connor (http://www.tonyoconnor.com.au/catalogue/cds.htm), while having a trawl through my Australian-themed collection. :)

[Stan_Lite]

Johnny Was - Stiff Little Fingers.

Originally written and performed by Bob Marley but suits Jake Burns' coarse vocal style much better.

Stan :)

[Burble]

/points to sig - the lazy way of posting what I'm currently listening to.

[Flibster]

Last thing I listened to was Terry Pratchett's Pyramids audiobook.

Not the best he's done but it's a bit of fun.

Simon/~Flibster

[Stan_Lite]

Sweet Child in Time (extended version) - Deep Purple :cool:

Has to be my favourite song ever, it has everything :D

Stan :)

[William]

Lady Sovereign. :cool:

[lostkat]

Lady Sovereign. :cool:
/me maims

I'm listening to the Manic Street Preachers - Forever delayed: The Greatest Hits

[William]

/me maims

I'm listening to the Manic Street Preachers - Forever delayed: The Greatest Hits

Sometimes I have an urge to listen to a scally.

She was orginally very good but she dumbed down alot unfortunately. :(

[Daz]

We almost went to see her for a laugh yesterday :D Decided to return to camp for more cider though.

[Tommy]

Metric - Monster Hospital

They've been coming out of my speakers a lot since leeds fest!

[Zirax]

Thread revival :)

Kula Shaker - Hey dude
PUSA - Back porch .... what ever happened to them?

[Stan_Lite]

Gold Dust Woman - Fleetwood Mac :cool:

Stan :)

[William]

I started reading The Rotters Club... which I blame for tonight's punk surge.

The Clash. :)

[Garp]

Just been listening to Lostprophets - Liberation Transmission.

Pretty good stuff... however, I can't help but wonder why a welshman sings with an american accent?

[Daz]

That's still on my 'to do' list. Currently I'm listening to The Fratellis - Costello Music. And it's mad as cheese, but very enjoyable. Reckon these would be a good live act.

[Creature]

Snow Patrol - Final Straw album. First time i've ever heard it, which is suprising.

[Treefrog]

Johnny Was - Stiff Little Fingers.

Originally written and performed by Bob Marley but suits Jake Burns' coarse vocal style much better.

Stan :)
I haven't heard this in ages! :)

Now listening, with "Touch & Go" and "Love of the Common People" to follow

[Daz]

Snow Patrol - Final Straw album. First time i've ever heard it, which is suprising.
Better than Eyes Open imo, if you've heard that.

[rich99]

Daft Punk - Discovery

just haven't heard it for so long I decided to dig it out :)

[Treefrog]

Sod this - I'm having an evening dedicated to SLF! :)

Each Dollar a Bullet playing atm, Beirut Moon to follow

[Creature]

Better than Eyes Open imo, if you've heard that.I've only heard Chasing Cars, but if the rest of the albums like that, it'll be close between them.

[Matblack]

Get cape, wear cape, fly

MB

[Daz]

Daft Punk - Discovery

just haven't heard it for so long I decided to dig it out :)
Top album :thumbup:

[iCraig]

Snow Patrol - It's Beginning To Get To Me.


If I was gay, I would marry Gary Lightbody just for his voice. Not especially fantastic, it's just so emotive and passionate.

[Zirax]

Barenaked ladies - falling for the first time

[Dee]

Stings Brand New Day album :)

[Daz]

Clubbers Guide to 2000

I'm gearing up for Saturday :cool:

[Dee]

That reminds me, I never got the Kevin and Perry album did I? :p

[Daz]

Someone changed plans at the last minute...

[Dee]

Did it mess up your plans? No, didnt think so ;)

[Daz]

No, but it did stop you from getting a CD, me from getting my DVD, and us from having a bevvy :p

[Stan_Lite]

Sweet home Chicago from the Blues Brothers soundtrack.

there aren't many tunes which get me dancing in the living room - this is one :cool:

Stan :)

[Stan_Lite]

Whisky in the Jar - Thin Lizzy - one of my favourite ever tracks :cool:

There may be a few posts here from me - I'm digging through my collection and playing some old favourites - a lot of them I like so much I will probably feel the need to tell you all :embarassed:

Stan :)

[Stan_Lite]

Next is "Dreams of Children" by The Jam.

I was (and still am) a big Jam fan, there are so many great tracks to choose from but this one always appealed to me.

Stan :)

[Stan_Lite]

Know your rights - The Clash.

"This is a public service announcement ..................... with guitars" :cool:

"You have the right to free speech ........ as long as you're not actually dumb enough to try it".

Excellent track - again difficult to choose from the multitude of excellent Clash songs.

Stan :)

[Stan_Lite]

Barbed wire love by Stiff Little Fingers.

I know I plug this band incessantly but they are ****ing good.

I've always loved this track :cool:

Stan :)

[Stan_Lite]

She Cries Alone - Skeletal Family.

Most of you won't be familiar with this band - they were a support band for the Sisters of Mercy when I saw them in 1985.

If you can find some, listen to it - they're pretty damn good. Difficult to classify, thye're not Goth, not punk - they're just Skeletal Family :)

Stan :)

[Stan_Lite]

Marian - Sisters of Mercy.

Again a band it's difficult to choose a favourite from. I used to have a huge crush on a lass called Marianne - this song always reminds me of her :embarassed:

Stan :)

[Stan_Lite]

Love in a Void - Souixsie and the Banshees.

Excellent listening - excellent band :cool:

Stan :)

[Stan_Lite]

Into the Valley - the Skids.

Another excellent track. The B side "TV all stars" is worth a listen too.

Stan :)

[Stan_Lite]

Your Emotions - Dead Kennedys.

I know I've posted it before but it's such a cracking track - if only it wasn't so short :(

From the same album - Viva Las Vegas - so much better than the original :cool:

Stan :)

[Stan_Lite]

Song Sung Blue - Neil Diamond.

Classic song - everybody loves it ;)

From the same album - Forever in Blue Jeans - excellent.

Stan :)

[Stan_Lite]

The Voice Within - Christina Aguilera.

Such a nice song. I really wish her record company wouldn't overproduce her records so much. She has such a naturally spectacular voice, she doesn't need too much help.

Stan :)

[Stan_Lite]

Naked - Avril Lavigne.

A very talented young lady (musically). I'm very impressed by the vocal ability of this young lady - she rawks :p

Stan :)

[Tak]

Naked - Avril Lavigne.

A very talented young lady (musically). I'm very impressed by the vocal ability of this young lady - she rawks :p

Stan :)

And she is (was) very sexy (lost a bit too much weight last time I saw piccys)

She is just as good live unlike many recent performers

[Stan_Lite]

And she is (was) very sexy (lost a bit too much weight last time I saw piccys)

I'm currently watching her "unplugged" - she can certainly hold a tune pretty much unaided which, nowadays, is quite unusual.

Stan :)

[Creature]

Strangley, i'm also listening to her. Great singer when she started out, heard nout from her lately though.

[Stan_Lite]

Spilled Perfume - Pam Tillis.

Yes it's country music - but cool country music - Pam Tillis helps to break the mould (Not in this song but I like it 'cos I'm a bit of an old country sort of guy).

Stan :)

[Stan_Lite]

Nancy boy - Placebo.

'Cos it sounds good :D

Stan :)

[Stan_Lite]

Breathe - The Prodigy :cool:

Stan :)

[Dymetrie]

Stan you spammer!

I'm currently listening to Lordi... It amuses me :p

[Stan_Lite]

Here's one you'll not have heard of.

I don't wanna be your Friend - Pure Greed.

They're a Shetland band (f***ing good band).

Stan :)

[Haly]

Wake Me Up When September Ends - Green Day.
I think it's been on repeat for a while but I've not noticed :embarassed: Which is probably a sign I should go to bed ;D

[Tak]

Stan you spammer!

I'm currently listening to Lordi... It amuses me :p

Only coz I said that was what I was listening to - yer git :p

[Stan_Lite]

Tainted Love - Soft Cell.
Fairly benign - give it to Marylin Manson and he makes it an exciting song :p

Stan :)

[Dymetrie]

Only coz I said that was what I was listening to - yer git :p

I've moved on to Sigur Ros now...

It's my nice quiet time :)

[Tak]

Quiet time? Whats one if them?

[Tak]

Tonight I will be mostly listening to Rocky Horror Picture Show - Audience Par-tic-i-pation Album :D

[Messiah Khan]

Ennio Morricone

[PeterNem]

Feeder - Comfort in sound (album).

Driving back from my parents to St. Albans in an hour or so, and I suspect that Dave Pearce Dance Anthems could be finding it's way onto the Cd player! Shame I'll only get through 1 and a half discs out of 3 before I get back :(

[petemc]

Battlestar Galactica OST 1 + 2. Brilliant blend of orchestral and drum beats.

[8 I3ALL]

Breathe - The Prodigy :cool:

Stan :)

Mogwai - Auto Rock - love this song.

[Burble]

and the one we sang to Daz via mobile phone link

"Gold
Always believe in your soul
Youve got the power to know
Youre indestructable
Always believe in,because you are gold"

[Blackstar]

Breakfast in Tiffanys - Deep blue something
This is one of those songs that make me feel older than the other kids :p

[Creature]

Girls Aloud :(

[Fayshun]

Girls Aloud :(
Wash your mouth out....

[Treefrog]

Breakfast in Tiffanys - Deep blue something

[Kell_ee001]

U + Ur Hand - Pink :D

I find the lyrics really funny :D Reminds me of sooo many nights out when I was younger!

[Burble]

I'm going to head off to bed soon and lose myself in something classical, perhaps some Mozart or Beethoven. When I need to get away from things and relax either classic or death metal usually do the trick.

[Zirax]

Will smith - Men in Black :D

[Kell_ee001]

I'm listening to stupid customers with stupid voices and even stupider problems :angry:

[Stan_Lite]

The Legendary Johnny Cash. Awesome.:cool:

Awww yeah I'm still swotting up for the gig ;)
I'm still very jealous, it really is a great show :)

[Fayshun]

Andrew WK - Party Hard. The best driving song EVER. :D

[leowyatt]

Currently listening to Dave Graham on Radio City (http://www.whatson.com/radiocity/). Not sure what the current track is but it's cracking. The sort of music to listen to :) when tidying up :(

[Creature]

Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly - War of the Worlds

[Treefrog]

I've just put together a Winamp playlist to keep me company while I post in another thread. And a few comments.

1. Billy Joel - I'm Moving Out

2. Billy Joel - We Didn't Start the Fire. Nicely done!

3. Black Sabbath - Heaven and Hell

4. AC/DC - Highway to Hell (local version is High Lane to Chell :))

5. Deep Purple - Child in Time. A pub singer left his mike and amp behind and we did karaoke to this and 'Bat out of Hell' in a local pub about 20 years ago!

6. Franz Ferdinand - Take Me Out. Another recent band I really like.

7. Garth Brooks - Rodeo. Reminds me of canvassing for the gas deregulation. Interesting times :)

8. Kansas - Carry on my Wayward Son. Long time favourite this, since I first heard it in ~'83. It was one of the handful of tunes that would have me instantly on the dance floor and headbanging at The Highwayman at Threapwood. The 'wayman was a 'night club' about 2 miles outside Cheadle on the Alton (Towers) road; and at the height of it's popularity, had bikes parked up 2 and 3 deep across the entire front of the building - all ~150' of it. Friday = Rock night, Saturday = trendy disco, and it was my regular Friday night haunt. To me, it was more of a social thing - I'd meet some friends in Cheadle, have a few beers and catch the free minibus provided by the 'wayman to ferry people from Cheadle, and spend all night wandering around chatting to all the people I saw regularly. Later there were coaches organising trips to the 'wayman on a regular basis from Birmingham, Derby, Nottingham, Macclesfield and Shrewsbury (off the top of my head.) I regularly used to have a chat to three lads from Brum who were up there every other Friday. I also met Metallica there, had a chat with, and bought Cliff Burton (bassist) a beer and embarrassed one of the Brummie lads who was playing pool with the singer (I forget his name :embarassed:) by alluding to his 'OMGZitsarockstar!!!1one' attitude :evil: A friend of mine, Mike, was even more fortunate than me - as you walked out of the 'wayman doors and looked across the car park and the small field beyond, there was his back door. Jammy git! Mind you, it was only a 20 min walk back to my folks' house. No street lights on country lanes at 2 in the morning ;)
Sadly, the site of the 'wayman and its mahoosive car park are now a small housing estate.

9. Nerina Pallot - Everyone's Gone to War. One Conor got me into while I was in hospital.

10. Kenny Loggins - Highway to the Danger Zone. Cheesy but good.

11. Loverboy - Turn Me Loose. See 8, but in ~'88.

12. Lordi - Hard Rock Hallelujah. Saw this band mentioned in one of Sam's posts then had a look on LimeWire to see if I like them. I'm still not sure about these :undecided: so I'm having another listen.

13. The Clash - Straight to Hell. Aaah! The parties in Wolverhampton that I used to go to. I had a lot of good friends there, friends of my best mate Rik. I lost contact with them all when he moved up here and married the ex of mine that I introduced him to.

14. Voice of the Beehive - I Think I Love You. I just like this band but I don't have 'I Walk the Earth' on the computer.

15. The Vapors - News at Ten. Their 3rd single, after 'Prisoners' and 'Turning Japanese'. Very underestimated band IMHO.

16. Stiff Little Fingers - Touch and Go. I always remember a certain night spent with a young lady whose bell I rang by mistake thinking it was an old workmate of mine. Well, it wasn't my fault, the house was now two flats, A and B. You'd expect 'A' to be the top buzzer wouldn't you? I'd hitched down Uxbridge for the funeral of the controller at the m/c dispatch company I used to work for. He'd had an accident a few years ago that had left his leg twisted -a blood clot broke loose, blocked something vital and :(
We went to the pub - the couple whose flat it was, another couple (the ones who got me the job as a London m/c Courier, another couple who I'd got a job there, myself and the lady from upstairs and we had a laugh and a few games of pool. While we were there the YL asked if anyone wanted to borrow the floor in her spare room, as it would be a bit less crowded than with all of us downstairs. So we went back with carry-outs, and much music, many beers and Moroccan Woodbines then ensued. While lying on the floor and chatting to this YL we were getting on famously, interesting conversations that jumped around and sparkled. After a while, I noticed that she was copying my body language and I was fairly sure that no-one had answered her earlier about the floor in the spare room, so I asked "If the offer of the spare floor is still available, I'd like to take you up on it." Btw, did I mention that she was a tall, slim, good-looking brunette who was doing post-grad Genetics at Brunel? She said "Yeah, sure" in a happy conversational tone. Then we both raised our eyes, looked each other fully in the eyes, held each others gaze, and smiled. We both knew exactly what had passed and were happy about it. Anyway, the song explains that night very well.

17. Stiff Little Fingers - Each Dollar a Bullet. I can't believe I'd not heard this most excellent track until about a month ago. :embarassed: And I've got one record (yes children - vinyl!) that was limited to 300 issues. I love the tune, the words and the wordplay in this one.

I know it's quite an eclectic mix - but there's a lot of different music that I like, so I just pick a tune from the HD, that makes me think of another, then another, and I just follow that train. I try to pick stuff that'll flow, not be boring and samey all the way through, but change beat and style to something that's different but complementary.

Sorry if this has gone on a bit long, I just felt in a chatty mood.

[Haly]

9. Nerina Pallot - Everyone's Gone to War. One Conor got me into while I was in hospital.


Yay someone else knows that song :D When it first came out I heard it on the radio and instantly liked it, made a nice refreshing change imo. Since then, I've only found one other person to know it, a guy in work who funnily enough had similar political views to me so maybe that was why we both liked it :D

I'm currently listening to Live Forever - Oasis. Not heard it in ages, forgot how much I like it.

[PeterNem]

I know it too Haly :)

I'm currently listening to the album "No Roots" by Faithless.

Booked tickets to see faithless in March in Nottingham (they have a new album out Monday). Saw them on their Greatest Hits (Forever Faithless) tour and they were bloody awesome!

[Burble]

I know the song too, but I didn't know until this morning (when MTV played it) what is was called or who it was by though.

Faithless tickets.. good call, I'd love to see them.

[leowyatt]

Have just gone to visit my grandparents and listened to War of the Worlds on the way there and on the way back.

[Zirax]

Currently listening to The avalanches - frontier psychiatrist :D Its a fairly random tune.

[Daz]

This boy needs therapy :D

I've got some random trance on. Fancied a change of pace whil trying to sort some Exchange routing out.

Message delivery to the remote domain '_05d15d1404735b4ab065d62e267b780e_D' failed for the following reason: Unable to bind to the destination server in DNS.
... it's just supposed to be another routing group :/

/sigh

[Zirax]

lol, just had a random track come on net radio

backstreet boys - we've got it goin' on

whoa, whats worse is that I remember it :D

[HollyThirtyFive]

A friend introduced me to a guy called Scott Matthews, and although the music is quite depressing in a way, its chilled and contemplative, its also beautiful and melodic and i cant stop listening!

http://www.myspace.com/scottmatthewsmusic
This is his myspace, i recommend if you like Jose Gonzalez, or music of that type you should give it a listen :)

[Matblack]

[lostkat]

I'm listening to nothing but the whir of my CPU fan.... My speakers set on fire last night and had to be plunged into the sink :(

[Mark]

Speakers catching fire? Holy cow, with all the electrical fire-raising around here recently I think I'm going to turn off the power and find the nearest cave. I leave lots of stuff on, all the time. :eek:

Anyway, I'm currently listening to NASA bods while they poke pointy things at gromets. :)

Didn't realise that you liked them. Have you tried JJ72? Trying to think of bands I know like them now, matchbox 20 springs to mind. Also early 3 doors down?

[Pebs]

Ohhhhhhhh Jenny dont be hasty, no dont treat me like a baby, let me take you where you'll let me because leaving just upsets me....

Loving Paulo!!

[HollyThirtyFive]

I think paulo soudns quite good, although havnt heard a full one of their track, just the advert on telly! is the whole album good?

[HollyThirtyFive]

Did okgo release a new single recently? I was a fan of get over it, and heard something in the pub the other day that i swear was them! lovin them though:)

I keep getting "if i lay here will you ly with me etc etc" in my head and it makes me sad about matt:( grrr to break ups!

[Pebs]

Whack on a bit of Gloria Gaynor girls, get your mates round, make cocktails and think FABULOUS! :)

[Roberta]

Putting Priscilla Queen of the Desert on also helps!

[Belmit]

On a similar note, I'm listening to the new Take That album. :D

Been learning Patience on the guitar - it has some really great chord progressions and is a great song to belt out loud.

[Welshy]

Today has been David Gray and The Jam: The Sound of the Jam :cool:

[Creature]

Well, tonight i'm going to be listening to Iron Maiden and Trivium because i'm going to see them live :D \o/

[Mark]

Jona Lewie - Stop the Cavalry

Thanks to Feek for reminding me. A christmas song that actually works. Definitely worth the £0.00 I paid for it on iTunes. ;D

[Dymetrie]

Black Sun Empire - Arrakis

Was used for the Red Moon Rising Eve trailer... Nice bit of Drum n' Bass :D

[Roberta]

The sound of rustling chocolate papers.

NOM NOM NOM!

[HollyThirtyFive]

Take that, snow patrol and a few other songs that are probably sad. Plus lots of happy songs mostky by Okgo

I just saw the video for "OKGO - A Million Ways" How funny is that?!?!;D

I downloaded an album by a guy called "Jacobs Stories" last night, quite radiohead/keaneish with some drum loops, keyboards etc very good, but also abit depressing lol (must stop listening to depressing music and put christmas hits on!)

[Garp]

Got Napster randomly selecting Christmas songs for me, a good mix of Jazz, swing, classics and modern songs (so far no Cliff Richard, praises be)
Probably later when I'm doing my stack of ironing I'll put on London Community Gospel Choir's christmas tape (only one cassette player in the house, and its in the kitchen:) )

[Feek]

I'm listening to Classical music right now.

Dire Straits - Romeo and Juliet followed by Private Investigations.

Dire Straits are considered Classical these days, right? :)

[Lopez]

Just finished listening to Moody Blues Greatest Hits this morning.

[killerkebab]

Not classical, no. I consider them truly awesome instead!
Was listening to Industrial Disease today, I just can't get enough of that song :D

[Will]

Listening to some old school tracks when I used to do cheese nights at the SU at uni... this was always popular:

A Tribe Called Quest - Jam. AWESOME track. :cool:

[Dr. Z]

Cookie to whoever guesses without the use of the interweb



Gentle impulsion
Shakes me, makes me lighter
Fearless on my breath

[Will]

Faithless Outrospective is such a good album - I don't know why I haven't listened to it more!

As for that DRZ it can only be Massive Attack - Teardrop. Mezzanine is SUCH a good album. I remember seeing them live at the BA - best gig I've ever been too.

[Pheebs]

I'm currently listening to the giggles of my other half playing a flying/shooting game! I think he likes crashing.

*wishes she had some music on*


Got live lounge in my CD player in the car at the moment! Work of a genius I say! :D

[Dr. Z]

/throws Will a cookie!

Indeed it is. Teardrop might well be my favourite trip-hop track ever and is certainly in my top 20 tracks of all time :)

[Will]

\o/ I love cookies! :D

Yeah it's a really evocative track for me - I can't always listen to it as a result, but when I do I get completely absorbed by it.

[Zirax]

Currently listening to Silversun - Only a girl

Another band that I don't hear much of now..... waoh just realised they have released two new albums (they died for a few years). They are a an american band, kinda quirky from the PUSA / matchbox 20 era. Very easy to sing along to and I would recommend silversun - silversun and neowave albums :)

http://www.silver-sun.co.uk/

Now followed up by jet - rollover dj

[killerkebab]

Led Zeppelin - Communication Breakdown right now :D

[Messiah Khan]

Ive only just discovered the Junior Boys. Its quite similar to Royksopp, and im loving it!:)

[Zirax]

Listening to System of a down - chop suey :D Bit different from all the other stuff I have been listening to.

Now its Incubis... the morning view album. They have to be my favourite band at the moment and have been for years. I just can't help but crank the volume when they come on. I can't put my finger on it... I just like them. I really would recommend the albums that they have done.

[killerkebab]

Do a little dance...
Make a little love...
Get down tonight!
Get down tonight!

[Welshy]

I've got Losing My Religion by REM on at the minute, havent listened to this in a while :)

[Belmit]

Playing along to Razorlight - Before I Fall To Pieces.

Just awesome for a bit of simple rocking out on the old acoustic!

[Nutcase]

Running through very best of the pouges at the mo. A-Ha or Elvis next? :cool:

[Dymetrie]

Well my funky playlist appears to have been lost by MP11... and it has decided to just randomly play anything from my library of 5000 tracks.

So I'm getting pretty much anything from Elvis, to The Divine Comedy, to Limp Bizkit, to Slipknot, to Wolfsheim, to SoaD, to etc...

Quite exciting really :D

[Nutcase]

I haven't even started with playlists yet, just playing an album at a time.

Currently got hotel california album on :)

[Burble]

I'm in a King Crimson mood this evening. Currently I'm listening to 'Three of a Perfect Pair' and have 'Lizard' and 'Red' queued up.
