Hi. The 72bands post really got me thinking.... What bands / genres get the people on this forum going? I'd love to find out. Cheers, Devin. P.S. I've even heard Tezza make mention of a guitar....
Anything and everything... there is not much I don't like, actually can't think of anything really...oh, except ABBA. That is worst lot of TV jingles, I've ever heard. Someone said...can't remember who..Anything that is too stupid to say, usually ends up being sung. I think that must have been Led Zepellin's motto - but I like their sound. Just have to try not to listen to the words, or I run round all day saying, "What the...was Jimmy on about?" Love Sinead O'Connor's protests. And still pull Melanie out... I am lucky in that I have a kid who can play anything, and even luckier I don't mind listening to it. She pretty much makes sure the whole day is a cavalcade of music, whether she's singing or playing and we have instruments all over the farm, so she's always picking them up (when the rest of us are doing the work :wink: ). But I can't complain, it always sounds pretty good.
In chronolgical times The shadows THE BEATLES Pink Floyd Led Zeplin Deep Purple Bob Dylan Anyone from 65/75 The protest era, Im a younger flower child Dire Straits Jimi Hendrix Eric Clapton Enya.. Hippy music Big Fan of anything Pertaining To Woodstock....... Neil Young Loving Spoonfull Free Status Quo I hate Country and Western!!!!! dont like Jaz Blues is OK but not it all. Lotsa other great Artists Songs to be played at my funeral Include Stairway to Heaven Led.Zep.Live in New York (Lengendry Concert) Comfotably Numb( live version) PinK F Abide with Me (English Soccer fans Singing it) Youll never Walk Alone (AS Above) Who Wants To Live Forever (QUEEN) good old Freddy I did it My Way (Frank Sinatra) Brothers In Arms (Dire Straits)Live version.
Stairway to heaven at your funeral? Far out man... You are one wild hippy child! You hoping to bump into Sister Golden Hair at the shops in the sky Tezza?
...And if you are gonna blast "My Way"....you just gotta let Freddie Mercury do it! Frank SINATRA????? :shock:
Ok maybe Frank sinatra is a bit too far but never heard any other versions Id love to try it Kareoke though,Done 2 joe cockers songs Tezza
Talking about dying If i met any of thosde no longer with us it sure sure would be 1 " great gig in the sky" just Imagine that on the ladders top rung Tezza
:lol: Not sure how we karaoke online Tezza, but if you come up with a way, I will duet with you... :!: We could duel banjos if you want... dun..dun, dun, dun-dun, dun..dun...
Everything from Vera Lynn, Fats Domino to blues, opera, pop, metal, disco, all ballads, folk, C & W, NO JAZZ and not much Rap either. I am also a bit iffy about 70s band like Led Zepp and Pink Floyd that turn a 3 minute song into a 10 minute bang/clang thing that wont finish. I have a collection of about 4000 hit songs over 70 years if anyone wants a song I can email it. I am also looking for a 70s aussie hit called 'Captain Zero'[the one and only super-natural hero] if anyone has it. Particularly taken by a portugese style of music called Fado. Tully, by Melanie did you mean Melanie Safka? Tezza, dont try karaoke at your funeral you will upstage and piss the funeral director off. Cheers,............ PS, I have fixed my 'signature'...
ahhhhhhh melonie sings Goodbye Ruby Tuesday the best Hey capn Zero havent heard that in years..Do you remember Neanderthal Man not sure on group Do u banjo Rainbow? Dont make hollow promises s there is almost 2 bands in the posters here I think were looking for a singer stilland maybe a drummer for our www permie concertlive from all corners of world Tezza
Some overlap Tezz. Beatles Led Zep Pink Floyd Genesis/Phil Collins Free Yes Crosby, Stills Nash and Young Jethro Tull Alan Stivell more lately Corrs Coldplay Irish Fiddle Was 'Neanderthal Man' by the Kinks? My Way? no way...
I like most music genres but I don't like much C&W. I do like Patsy Cline and George Jones. I love some classical music and some opera, particularly Madam Butterfly. I LOVE blue grass - the really hick foot shuffling stuff from up in the appalacians. I like Portishead, Radiohead, Bjork, Mercury Rev, some of the Killers newish CD, Eminem, Ray Charles, Nick Cave, PJ Harvey, the Vines, the Pixies, REM, Blossom Dearie, Leonard Cohen, the pre-electric Bob Dylan, Ani DiFranco, Deborah Conway, Beck, Captain Beefheart, The Who, but not after Keith, Foo Fighters, dandy warhols and much much more.
i listened to lots of hardcore/punk music as a kid (5-6 years ago ) lots of bands you've never heard :lol: now... james brown, bob dylan, johnny cash, aphex twin, jimi hendrix, sigur ros, rank sinatra (yes rank), talk talk, pink floyd, buju banton, my disco, augie march, death cab for cutie, the flaming lips, blue grass... bean flipper, the beatles, tom waits, paul simon, muse, dead kennedys, james taylor, modest mouse, social distortion, joe strummer, deftones, the pouges, you am i, dixie land jazz and any super drumming, neil young, santana, funny 80's music and bad brains. that's just about all i think :lol:
yeah, I like aphex twin and my bloody valentine, tom waits too. He's a classic. Oh and the Pogues! Shane McGowan is one of my anti-establishment heroes. Turnsile, did you even get into Whitehouse?
I'm a J's listener, and love it.... With a very diverse range of likes, depending on the situation, everything from Marina Prior and Enya, through to Tool and blink 182. some faves include : Archie Roach (have all his albums, brilliant ) Jebadiah Jack Johnson Little Birdy Missy Higgins (shame she became so popular) Tiddas Waifs Eskimo Joe Sia Hilltop hoods Youth group End of fashion Strange, all except one of the above is AUSSIE .. I'll even admit to being a bit of a closet Kasey Chambers fan. Forest, you like some coool music... Ani Difranco is an amazing woman, I know Deborah Conways white roses off by heart (I sing it in the shower ), and do you have Nick Caves murder ballads? What a brilliant album, although it's rather dark the man has some great skills.
i really enjoy tom waits, i like how he's progressed and experimented with sound. his new album is real good yeah the pouges are great! :drinkers: i've never heard them, what are they like?
Turnstile, I was sent a compliation CD from a friend in the UK. Whitehouse was on it. They are absolutely mind splitting, not sure that I liked them but their singer, William Bennet seems to be a complex pandora's box. Here's a link, beware naughty words for young eyes: https://www.neox.demon.co.uk/whitehouse/ Joel, I don't have Murder Ballards but one of my sons does. Unfortately he took it to Canada with him. It's a fine album. Did you know Nick Cave wrote the script for the film, The Proposition. I'd love to see it but I can never be bothered going to the movies anymore. Crowds are a bit more than I can take.
Dylan (deserves his own paragraph!) Beatles (ditto) In no particular order: Tom Waits Hendrix Solas Nick Cave Parliament Sly & The Family Stone Pogues The Band Pitchshifter Orb Future Sound Of London ZZ Top (early stuff only) Janis Joplin (and BB) Golden Claw Dreadnaught Midnight Oil Dead Can Dance Bolt Thrower ....awww who am I kidding...I'm just getting warmed up and I haven't even begun... :lol: I haven't listened to that much in the last few years because I've been busy writing my own music...
Count me in for: 1. Marianne Faithful 2. Tom Waits 3. Fink Floyd 4. Dire Straits I once went to a Marianne Faithful concert on my wedding anniversary. Big mistake only buying one ticket ..... hell hath no fury like a woman .... etc derek
