'The Vatican Rag[time]' - Tom Lehrer

This guy was a brilliant comedian and stand-up comedy singer in the fifties and sixties, and this is just one example of his many brilliantly witty and funny songs. :D
I suggest you check him out; other excellent songs by him are 'Irish Folk Song', 'Lobachevsky', 'The Wild West Is Where I Wanna Be', and 'Poisoning Pigeons in the Park'. :D

'Poisoning Pigeons in the park' ?!?!? was this guy British, because that seems like the kind of an action people here would take against the ever-present pigeons.

Hello there,
I think my current favorite song is an old song by Nik Kershaw "The Riddle" since it contains a fracture of past times in my mind and almost makes me weep. I have listened to it many times after I found and downloaded it to my pc. Songs and melodies can be containers of past times...

I also love the Blind Guardian's "Lord of the Ring" song..I've had it not so long on my pc. I don't know about Nik Kershaw or the Guardians anything else besides a couple of songs...

Argh! Now that you posted about that backstreet boys song it in my head and I can't get it out! Don't you think its a little old though, my sister used to listen to them back in the 90's all the time. I never was much into the 'boy bands' that don't play their own music, they just sing.

My NEW favorite song is:

Wolfshead
02-11-2004, 12:33 AM
Excellent song that, Gandalf :D

At the moment, I'd probably have to go for a Def Leppard song, 'cos I bought their Best Of album last week :D Despite the whole selling out business, there's still some great songs by them. My favourites would probably be Armageddon It, I reckon. But the album is very good in general :)

Although I'm quite liking either Last Train and We Are Godzilla... You Are Japan by the Lostprophets as well.

Dust in the Wind by Kansas. Its my all time favorite, including now.

John Farnham - You're The Voice.

Fantastic song, especially when the bagpipes kick in. :D

Gandalf White
02-15-2004, 03:44 AM
Fade To Black - Metallica
Hero of the Day- Metallica
No Leaf Clover - Metallica

My new favourite is by a band called Korpiklaani. They're a Finnish folk metal band, who used to be called Shaman. This song comes from when they were Shaman, before they changed their name and direction slightly.

Anyway, you can download the song It Sat Duolmma Mu from their site. I would strongly recommend you do so, it's very good upbeat folk metal.

I've never really liked rap at all, I find it too confrontational and exuding a very negative attitude; but when it's sung in Spanish, it's a whole different story with me. :D I love the Spanish language, and it's ideal for rap.
A band I've recently discovered, called Control Machete, has some really excellent rap songs. And it's fun to try and understand at least some of the words. ;)

Control Machete - De Amores Perros
Control Machete - Comprendes Mendes

Yeah, Coldplay - Clocks is a brilliant song. I don't know why it did so badly in the JJJ Hottest 100 two years ago. I believe that the remix of it came #5 this year though. :)

Another song that I have taken a liking to lately is Counting Crows - Mr. Jones. :D

smeagol444
02-17-2004, 07:37 AM
Yes took people some time to warm up to Coldplay..don't know why.. surely Yellow being their debut single was a slight indication of their splendour. A Rush Of Blood To The Head did reasonably well in the charts in Aus. They aren't coming here this year.. :(

Britney Spears' Toxic has a quite addictive tune.

Turin
02-17-2004, 11:52 PM
I have an undying hate for britney spears(name does not deserve to be capitallized), I unfortunately watched the toxic video today and thought it was stupid. Don't take it personally, I hate all pop :D.

Kind of old favorite, 'Bodies' by Drowning pool.

Kent - Sundance Kid

Kent is a Swedish/Finnish band, and they sing in Swedish; but I seriously recommend you hear this song, it is beautiful even if you don't understand it.. And Swedish is actually extremely close to English, so with the lyrics in front of you you might even understand it if you dno't already speak Swedish. :)
Anyway, this song has such a beautiful chorus, and the words overall are really insightful and beautiful; and what's more, the song always reminds me of a girl I met a short while ago on a cruise, because I bought the CD from Stockholm just before I met her, and I've been listening to it ever since. :D :o

And Kent has lots more wonderful songs; others I recommend are 'Pärlor', 'Dom Andra' and 'Kärleken ventar'. :)

Ithilin

Yeah some of the band members are Finnish, about half in fact. Or they're probably Finns who now live in Sweden. :)
They're big in Norway? That's funny, because Swedish and Norwegian(although very, very intimately related as languages) are quite different. :D

These are the lyrics to a couple of our songs (our being my band, "Warrior Poets")

Please tell me what you think, as I personally think they're awesome. I, of course, didn't write them, but a lot of them really apply to me...So tell me what ya'll think...The somethin's are what I couldn't make out or remember.

Crimson Autumn:

A tiny garden,
Robed in oaken trees,
The smell of autumnm,
The rain of crimson leaves,
The roses scattered on the battered stone,
Insciptions from an ancient time,
A maiden left alone,
She runs her fingers on the markings of his name
Memories so ancient,
But they seem like yesterday

I'm waiting for you here,
In the place I saw you last,
This pain is so severe,
But I know it soon will pass,
But till then...I'll wait for you...

Endless dark,
Sorrow brings,
Torn apart,
By all goodhearted things,
Waiting here,
For you to come,
But I know you won't,
Not again,
Not again...

*Chorus*

Running away,
From all the things,
That haunt me...
That chase me...
Missing you,
Wishing for you,
But never again,
Never again...
Can't you see in my eyes?
Can't you see that I will never know peace again?
Come back to me...
Come back to me, my love...
The rain never stops here,
It's soaking my soal,
Weighing me down,
To never rise again...

*Chorus*

----------------------------------------------------

Veil of Glass:

A thousand miles,
A thousand scars,
Left to weep and wonder,
A victory,
A tragedy,
Only room for misery,
Recognition lifts away,
Only time to cry and decay,
The evening sun fades away,
Leaving room for a mournful gray,

*Chorus*
But I know,
That behind the veil of stars,
There is freedom,
Behind the golden glass,
In my dreams,
The grass is evergreen,

Somethin, somethin...
Burns my soul,
Tears me apart
But makes me whole
Somethin, somethin...
Peace of mind
We walk the path,
But no answers will we find

Look into your heart, my friend
Or it shall see a bitter end,
A mind of steel inflexible,
The deepest scars in time will mend,
The tower tall the steeple spire,
All the while you drift, afire,
The blackend smoke, the burning byre,
The curling smoke grows ever higher,

*Chorus*

------------------------------------------------------------------

Harboured Dreams:

Moonlight falling on the leaves,
Wind dancing in the meadows,
Lightning, somethin, somethin.....
Rain falling on my shoulders,

*Chorus*
When in reality,
Pain in blinding me,
Sleep can set me free,
So I will dream,

Kids sitting around the tree,
Grandma with her homemade cookies,
Somethin, somethin, somethin...
Love is the the life within us all,

*Chorus*

Somethin, somethin, somethin...
Pain wrapped in disguise,
Your past you can't conceal,
For it echoes in your eyes,
I see the sorrow that you feel,
Sleep can help survive,
Dreams can break the seal,
So rest your head and close your eyes,

*Chorus*

----------------------------------------------------------

Fallen Figures:

Fallen figures,
Broken dreams,
Lacking courage,
Ripping seams,
The rain falls upon the land,

*Chorus 1*
Is there a way,
To end this today?
Now I must hide,
Within my mind,
And pass away...

Empty ground,
The lack of sound,
All around,
I feel the fear,
This is my final test,
I'll take the plunge...

*Chorus 2*
Is there a way,
To end this today,
But before the end,
You will remember today,
The sweetest rain...

Bitter tears,
Slowly die,
People cheer,
Crucify,
I fall away,
The death of day,
The dimming life,
The slow decay,
The candle burns,
But not for long,
The wind consumes this dying song,
I'm fading out...
I'm falling now...
Please catch me...

*Chorus*

-------------------------------------------------

Gates of Eternity:

Verse 1
Watching life through you mirror,
Silhouettes against your darkest lies,
You try your best to make it clearer,
But only comes to crimson skies,
Greenest grass had turned to weeds,
The tallest tree is now but ash,
Watching now the tide recede,
Left alone to bite and gnash,

*Chorus*
Wishing for the halls so golden,
You long to see the gates of pearl,
The kingly crown is laid before you,
Your gleaming flag shall now unfurl,

Verse 2
Watching all your hopes and dreams,
Pass away to fall and die,
Tarninshed gold that used to gleam,
The crippled bird that used to fly ,
What have you left ot gain,
When all the world is lost in doubt?
Bombarded by the endless rain,
The burning flame has now gone out,

*Chorus*

*Bridge*
Only doubts are what's in store,
The blazened shield and gleaming sword,
Friends, allow your hearts to soar,
The heralds shout, To war! To war!

undefinedThis song has been my fav before and now I find myself listening to it anew again...and I'm going to Sting's concert when he visits here this month!!!! :) :D
it is:

If I Ever Lose My Faith In You

You could say I lost my faith in science and progress
You could say I lost my belief in the holy church
You could say I lost my sense of direction
You could say all of this and worse, but
If I ever lose my faith in you
There'd be nothing left for me to do

Some would say I was a lost man in a lost world
You could say I lost my faith in the people on T.V.
You could say I'd lost my belief in our politicians
They all seemed like game show hosts to me
If I ever lose my faith in you
There'd be nothing left for me to do
I could be lost inside their lies without a trace
But every time I close my eyes, I see your face

I never saw no miracle of science
That didn't go from a blessing to a curse
I never saw no military solution
That didn't always end up as something worse,
But let me say this first

If I ever lose my faith in you
If I ever lose my faith in you
There'd be nothing left for me to do
There'd be nothing left for me to do
If I ever lose my faith
If I ever lose my faith
If I ever lose my faith
If I ever lose my faith in you

Well, the song stuck on repeat in my head at the moment is Blind Guardian's 'Nighfall' from 'Nightfall In Middle Earth'. I'm sure it will leave me alone in time. Great album by the way, especially if you're into The Silmarillion (which would be a bit odd if you weren't on a Tolkien website, but there you go) and (Craig, you probably know the correct name for the kind of music it is) german choir/folk/power metal (?).

Wolfshead
05-27-2004, 10:49 AM
(Craig, you probably know the correct name for the kind of music it is) german choir/folk/power metal (?).Of course I do, and if I don't, I make it up :D I've never seen Blind Guardian described as anything other than power metal, oddly. So I suppose they could be German power metal, although the fact that they're German doesn't add anything to the music as such (like Cruachan being from Ireland, for example), it's just for indentification purposes. So yeah, power metal. Splendid album, and the first metal album I ever bought :D

Morgoth
05-27-2004, 11:06 AM
On the subject of Blind Guardian, does anyone know of upcoming BG tour dates, I would love to see them live in the UK, but the last time they played was at Bloodfest (I think, although it could have been called Metalfest- once again Craig, your expertise may come in handy ;) ) a couple of years ago.

Wolfshead
05-27-2004, 11:17 AM
Glad to be of service :D There's nothing on www.blind-guardian.com (http://www.blind-guardian.com) about new tours, the last it lists is of the world tour in 2002/3. But you could try www.blind-guardian.com/forum/index.php (http://www.blind-guardian.com/forum/index.php) . There's a section about tours there. But I haven't heard anything lately.

As for the second part, I fear you're getting mixed up with Ozzfest ;) The festival is Bloodstock, and this year Children Of Bodom and Gamma Ray are headlining. I'm doing everything I can to make sure I get down to it, because Cruachan are playing - www.bloodstock.uk.com (http://www.bloodstock.uk.com)

And if you like Blind Guardian, I reckon you'll like Falconer. Go to www.falconermusic.com (http://www.falconermusic.com) , and download the song, The Clarion Call. It's rather excellent :)

Something Corporate now being my new temporarily favorite emo band (even though they're not Christian!).

"Pride War" by Further Seems Forever.
"On Legendary" by Further Seems Forever.
"Remember Sammy Jankins" by Staple.
"Deathtrap Daisy" by Staple

That's all I can think of right now, though there are a few more Staple songs that I'm obsessed with right now.

I love the chorus to that one. Particularly the part right before, when it does the weird walk-down to the drop-D. I love that. I play te rythm all the time on my bass when I'm just listening to Mr. Williams (Band Director) talk.

One I forgot:

"Lancaster, PA" by The Beautiful Mistake. Awesome song. I love the beginning. Another cool one is "For a Friend". The guitar solo in the middle is one of the coolest to listen to.

"For You to Notice" by Dashboard Confessional. The So Impossible EP version, that is. My theme song right there...

Last one:

"Shekina" by Blindside. The girl singing is awesome. Not to mention the cello...

Oh, dude, Dashboard's awesome. The only ones I don't own are the So Impossible and Drowning EPs, but I ripped those off the internet, so I've got 'em all. My favorites are still: Morning Calls, Several Ways to Die Trying, Remember to Breathe (So Impossible version), Living in Your Letters (in the Top 2), A Plain Morning, This Ruined Puzzle, Standard Lines, Shirts and Gloves, and For You to Notice (So Impossible version).

Of course, I love virtually every other song, but still...These are the favorites.

ONe of the things that scares me is that Dashboard's becoming so stupidly popular, that it seems like they're losing what it is that makes them Dashboard. It's like they're becoming too...corporized (if that's a word). That's the only sucky thing about it...Curses upon MTV...

Yes, curses upon MTV and Clive Davis at Interscope Records!!! I've loved the stuff Chris Carrabba has done for years and I'm frightened at the horny little teenage girls that are now "his biggest fans". :mad: Anyways...I've always loved So Impossible, Anyone,anyone, Ender will save us all, The Good Fight, also Snowbirds and Townies & Wearing Thin off The Moon is Down. Hands Down(So Impossible EP) used to be my favorite song, but the new version ruined it for me...

If you guys out there like Dashboard, listen to The Honorary Title! They're an awesome indie band I found!

Other always great songs:
M. Shepard & Wind Up --Thursday
The New Year & Expo '86 -- Death Cab for Cutie
Lover I Don't Have to Love & The Calender Hung Itself -- Bright Eyes

So Impossible is honsestly one of my least favorite songs by them. The others are #'s 10, 11, and 12 on their latest cd. #12 is the worst...I hate it.

Yeah, it used to be 'punk' (I use the quotations because it's not really even that. It's just the cheap, mainstream/sucky version of real punk, which is still the same as it was 20 years ago), but now it's getting to where 'emo' (same as before. Granted, there are a few good emo bands that emerge every once in a while, but the vast majority of the new stuff coming out is ****) is the thing to be if you want kids to fawn over you. Case in point: Saves the Day...

I liked emo back before it was popular, thank you...

The only new secular emo band I think is good is Story of the Year. But alas, it seems that they're getting immensely popular already, so I'm a little worried about their next album; it may dissapoint me...

I'm downloading a few songs by honorary Title already. :)

Thorondor
08-11-2004, 04:22 PM
I've been labeled somewhat of a music snob for the fact I'll discover a good underground band, and then when the masses find it a year later and their music starts becoming obnoxiously popular, I've lost interest and have moved on to something else. When major labels start marketing to the masses, its like dumbing it down to the lowest common dominator. And there are some pretty dumb people out there. Case in Point: At the last Dashboard concert I heard a girl singing..."I'll be truthful, I'll be a Cavalier, I'll be yours my dear"

As for Saves the Day, I've liked some of their stuff. In Reverie hands down sucked, but Stay What You Are had it moments, and Through Being Cool while not being the greatest ever, it was a dumb/fun pseudo emo/punk CD. I'd never say that Chris Connelly is a great lyricist by any means, but they don't seem like corporate puppets such as Simple Plan...*shudders*

I agree that Story of the Year is a great CD, and they will probably come back with a crappy second album. That said, I'm really disappointed in Taking Back Sunday's new CD. It's not bad, but compared with Tell all Your Friends, and also Brand New's Deju Entendu, its kind of bland.

Alas, I mostly worried about "new hit" bands like Modest Mouse...They are the type of band that deserve to be heard, but aren't meant to be superstars. I'm pretty sure Issac Brock will find some way to screw it up, and they will be back in obscurity soon :D

In the end, I'll have to be content that there will always be good bands out there that no matter how hard they try, they'll never be popular, like The Get Up Kids or Bright Eyes. And there will always be bands no one will ever hear of like The Honorary Title, Fugazi, Southerly, Broken Social Scene, or The Faint.

http://www.ee.columbia.edu/~rob/midialign/resyn/moon_and_back-savage_garden.tbound-derivative_1.resyn.mp3

To the Moon and Back

She's taking her time making up the reasons
To justify all the hurt inside
Guess she knows from the smiles and the look in their eyes
Everyone's got a theory about the bitter one
They're saying, "Mama never loved her much"
And, "Daddy never keeps in touch
That's why she shies away from human affection"
But somewhere in a private place
She packs her bags for outer space
And now she's waiting for the right kind of pilot to come
And she'll say to him

I would fly to the moon and back if you'll be...
If you'll be my baby
Got a ticket for a world where we belong
So would you be my baby?

She can't remember a time when she felt needed
If love was red then she was color blind
All her friends they've been tried for treason
And crimes that were never defined
She's saying, "Love is like a barren place,
And reaching out for human faith
Is like a journey I just don't have a map for"
So baby's gonna take a dive and
Push the shift to overdrive
Send a signal that she's hanging
All her hopes on the stars
What a pleasant dream

I would fly to the moon and back if you'll be...
If you'll be my baby
Got a ticket for a world where we belong
So would you be my baby?

Mama never loved her much
And, Daddy never keeps in touch
That's why she shies away from human affection
But somewhere in a private place
She packs her bags for outer space
And now she's waiting for the right kind of pilot to come
And she'll say to him

I would fly to the moon and back if you'll be...
If you'll be my baby
Got a ticket for a world where we belong
So would you be my baby?
