I was just listening to the Wings of Desire soundtrack, but gave it up since it isn't really the right mood. I'm contemplating putting on David Sylvian/Holzer Czuckay's 'Plight and Premonition,' but I'd have to dig around to find it.

Don't tell just anyone, but I had Peter Gabriel's "SO" album in, because we're gonna cover "In Your Eyes", electronica style. Stop laughing. Richie did "O Come O Come Emmanuel", the Christmas carol, techno-fied, and it worked.

Although I've never been a particularly big fan of The Cure (in fact, that whiney Robert Smith really used to piss me off), I found a cool web site in my quest for mp3 files last night, and I am currently listening to 2 hours and 36 minutes of an entire near-CD-quality Cure concert.

Response #19

Try the linkee again later. It worked great last night.

The web pages are hit-and-miss, usually miss. Best bet is to have something in mind (like, I think I actually stumbled across the Cure pages while looking for "Crash" by the Dave Matthews band), and hit a search engine like, oh, HotBot, ferinstance, and search for "keyword" and "mp3".

Your results will probably turn up a shitload of fly-by-night mp3 pages, which are basically lists of links to files on other sites, usually long-since closed down and removed, and peppered with porn banner ads and annoying pop-up windows. *Occasionally* you can glean some worthwhile files offa those kinda sites, but I've generally found 'em to be more trouble than they're worth.

Keep scanning your search results, tho, and you'll probably find the occasional Fan pages, or personal (i.e. non-banner, non-business) collections of mp3 files, like the aforementioned Cure site. And therein lies the true mp3 goldmine.

Funny you should mention Zappa, Cleo.

Strange guy. Anyway, listeng to Zappa now for those that care.

"Panic" (by Panic) -- a popular korean pop group consisting of two young go-getters who rap, sing slow ballads and perky tunes with undertones from such influences as the old vanilla ice, new kids on the block, and bryan adams. the most popular song on this album, whose title can be translated to mean "slug", is about a man who finds a slug in his bathtub, a slug that sings to him about eventually crawling its way from the bathtub to the sea, following the sound of waves.

and kudos to sooz for a righteous idea. i'm listening to .. well, actually i guess it is music, but it's on the tv. it's the 'sweet music behind the meaningful conversation' music from a popular korean miniseries whose title can be translated as 'look, look again', about a pair of families whose siblings attempt to marry each other (in a non-incestual way) and the thwarting of such consumation by one of the family's grandmothers. the main technique used to assuage the grandmother is for one of the grandkids to sing korean oldies for her.

so actually it's a pretty musical show.

Kevin Bacon and Will Smith are the same person, with interchangeable skin. And they're both really cute. Cute goes a long way in my very shallow book, you know.

SOS, you hit it, precisely. Richie listens to wanna-be Nirvanas until his ears about bleed, and I listen to doctors ramble all day. Then we go out and play music in a band. So, considering all this ear fatigue, we don't listen to music in the house. It's not something we sat down and made a decree about or anything... we just don't. There's not even a stereo in the house. Sometimes Jimmy goes in his room and does that teenager-with-the-headphones routine, though. He's the only one that even owns a boom box around here. And we listen in the car, sometimes. But not that often.

Nice to see you finally agree. :)

Is it just me, or does sooz seem a little ticked at me?

HTB: "There's good disco...

...as long as you've recently taken illegal stimulants."

Well...there's always that!

Then again, that even makes TV good!

See, the problem here is the assumption that someone ENJOYED disco.

I can see Sooz's point. There can be good disco in the sense of its technical excellence. Doing anything well is noteworthy.

The same way you can dislike Adolph Hitler while still admiring his ambition.

Disco was hugely popular. Therefore, SOMEONE liked it. I'm not saying it was my cup o' tea, but there were people (Donna Summer) doing that genre well, and making a load of cash off it. Heavy metal, goth and country aren't my thing either, but that doesn't mean no one's doign it well.

Tsk, tsk, tsk. Ralf, how disappointing. After you come up with teh great hampter ploy, then you come back with this! Such a same!

Sooz: "Disco was hugely popular. Therefore, SOMEONE liked it"

Someone liking it, doesn't necessarily mean it's good. Using the Hitler analogy, lot's of people liked him...at first.

You're comparing someone that murdered gazillions of people to a genre of music that lasted about 5 years. I think we're talking apples and oranges here, dude.

Lessee:

Adolph Hitler: Rein lasted about a decade (1934-1944).

Disco: Roughly 1974-1984.

I don't see much difference.

You should try the CD he did with his brother.

Strangely, it's titled The Finn Brothers.

Good stuff.

I'm pretty sure that Disco was responsible for the murder of more than a few people.

Of course if they listened to disco, and wore one of those horrible suts, I think it would qulify as a mercy killing.

Ahhh.. so does it count that a well purchased pair of breast were displayed from the 1st row to Steve Tyler, then he pointed them out and they were displayed for all to see on the overhead?

Naa...guess not.

They gave away free Jude CDs as we left.

No to both questions. I take that back, they were in Steven Tyler's licking distance, but he only had the camera man show all of us.

Okay, technically I'm not listening to anything right now, but I feel strangely compelled to tell you what I was listening to on may way home from work today.

I was listening to miscellaneous mp3s. In my car... Through my car stereo, by way of a snazzy new Discman-to-Cassette-Deck adapter from Radio Shack, only instead of a discman I have a notebook PC.

Bow down before me.

I had a friend of mine's cousin's sister's brother in law that worked for NASA play his CD of MP3's, on his tape deck adapter, through his cell phone modem that was satellite uplinked to a listening post somewhere in Alaska, then sent back down and streamed through real player.

Just becasue we were bored.
