Posted March 26, 2009 (edited) Some more classic music found its way onto my computer today. Whilst looking for my Corrs album I came across mummy's Best of Robert Palmer. It has to be assimilated. Although I am disgusted to find it didn't have Addicted To Love on it, which has one of the best music videos in existence... I already have it on my PC, but that's not the point.

Posted March 26, 2009 haha, genius. Spandau Ballet are reforming. Get in there! This'll be interesting to see how this generation of music lovers take to them. Just hope they keep the style they are known for and don't try to compete with the other bands around at the moment in terms of their sound. And I now feel very old talking about Spandau Ballet. Was brought up listening to them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 26, 2009 Calvin Harris - I'm Not Alone OFFICIAL VIDEO Ever since getting this a month and a bit ago, it hasn't left my playlist. As much as I want to want to punch Calvin Harris, I somehow don't. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 26, 2009 Thursday are fucking brilliant. This song is amazing but the last 45 seconds are just too good. So intense. Such a mint way to end the album War All The Time. Thursday - Tomorrow I'll Be You Audio Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 26, 2009 (edited) ^ That song's pretty good, Davey. Over the last week/10 days I've been listening heavily to a J-Pop artist named Rie fu. I had one of her songs on the PC for nearly a year, as it was the closing song to an anime. But when I saw her perform on a Japanese music show I decided to get her albums. I was pleasantly surprised. There isn't a single song on the three albums that isn't rubbish. Yes, there are some that stand out above the others, but still, quality all round. She can speak perfect English so there's no problem with "Let's fighting love!" and other comical Engrish errors. So it's all good. Few of my favs: Life is Like a Boat Audio Waratte, Megumi no Moto he (Laughing, to the Origin of Grace) Audio Shine - It ain't on YouTube, but it is here! I've also acquired Daft Punk - Discovery. I just had to considering how much I enjoyed Interstella 5555. Edited March 26, 2009 by Roostophe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 26, 2009 I finally realised what the lyrics to I Was Married by Tegan and Sara are. My life feels like it has a whole new meaning. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 26, 2009 Placebo News Molko said: "I believe 'Battle' to be the first of our albums to tell a story over the course of its 52 minutes. Our previous releases were really only collections of songs and even though the songs are ordered according to the musical flow, I hope that if you listen hard enough to the words that some kind of discernible thematic unity will begin to emerge." The tracklisting for "Battle of the Sun" is: 'Kitty Litter' 'Ashtray Heart' 'Battle For The Sun' 'For What It’s Worth' 'Devil In The Details' 'Bright Lights' 'Speak In Tongues' 'The Never-Ending Why' 'Julien' 'Happy You're Gone' 'Breathe Underwater' 'Come Undone' 'Kings of Medicine' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 26, 2009 My guess is it was probably aimed at the Yorkshire-based members of the forum who are into this music. Like GothicPlague although he might have heard that one bfore. Or it was for the number who are into that genre. Like me. I said I liked it. You're obviously not the clique he aimed it at, to be honest. IIRC Thursday also did a cover of "Ever Fallen In Love", is that right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 26, 2009 Ok, well one should probably state that a post is aimed at certain contingent, if that's the case. He could just MSN them if he didn't want anyone outside of that contingent's opinion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IIRC Thursday also did a cover of "Ever Fallen In Love", is that right? Yes rather surprisingly I have heard it before but I doubt it was aimed at me probably more towards other people on the forum who don't constantly talk about pop music (not that I have a problem with some good pop music). Also yes they have Audio Anyone heard of the band The Chemists? Their song Hear Our Song is pretty damn good IMO and they don't seem to have too many fans Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 26, 2009 The Bachelor by Patrick Wolf out 1st June First single is interesting...Vulture. His albums are always interesting. Especially the more experimental ones. Actually not heard the whole of his second one yet though. The video is NSFW! So just Spotify it. C'est bon. -------- Do you ever find that lyrics are too deep that the actual meaning gets lost? I have literally no idea what Clam, Crab, Cockle, Cowrie by Joanna Newsom is actually about. All I know is that I love it. I do as I please Now I'm on my knees Your skin is something that I stir into my tea And I am watching you and you are starry, starry, starry and I'm tumbling down, and I check a frown Well, just look around It's why I love this town just see me serenaded hourly! celebrated sourly! dedicated dourly; waltzing with the open sea Clam, crab, cockle, cowrie will you just look at me?

Very few people who post here actually do it to seek opinion, it's normally just to say who is awesome and post some spiritual ramblings about how the artists songs complete them as a person.

Posted March 26, 2009 Fuck off, Joanna Newsom. Worst voice in music. Not really. I prefer to listen to her than the Saturdays and the infinite other pop bands with really uninspiring, boring vocals. It's lovely to hear her: Anyway, your point is irrelevant, because Ys by Joanna Newsom is one of the best albums in the last 10 years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 26, 2009 Pretty old news apparently, but I stumbled upon this just now: "DEVO ANNOUNCE NEW STUDIO ALBUM TO DEBUT FALL 2009! De-evolution has finally arrived...and who better to guide us through the mess than DEVO. The fall of 2009 will bring a new DEVO studio album, their first one since 1990's Smooth Noodle Maps. It'll mark their first new music since the strong fan reaction that greeted the 2007 single "Watch Us Work It," their first new song in 18 years and one that was produced by Sweden's TeddyBears (Robyn). They're now in the studio putting the finishing touches on their new album (title TBA)." Fuck yeah. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
