nightwolf Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 I fell in love with The call - regina spektor today. It's such a beautiful song. ''You'll come back, when they call you...no need to say goodbye'' *sniffles* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paj! Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 That's obscene. I am stretched for time as it is. Sometimes I get in a sneaky tune at work and there's no point at Uni. Annoyingly my Scrobble feature for my iPod keeps buggering up...although I don't think that would put me even remotely close to your count. iTunes is always on when I'm using the Mac, except on VERY rare occasions, as I said, souble scrobbles often, plus iPod plays get scrobbled too. I fell in love with The call - regina spektor today. It's such a beautiful song. ''You'll come back, when they call you...no need to say goodbye'' *sniffles* Chemo Limo is beautiful-er...because there's an incredible sense of humanity and maternal instinct in it. Breathtaking.

The Call is bit saccharine, and just isn't as "good" as Wunderkind by Alanis Morissette (from the first film). I forgot Regina even featuired in Caspian, I remember that being the best bit now...

Daft Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Today I fell in love with Hot Chip's Coming On Strong I'm sick of motherfuckers trying to tell me that they're down with Prince 'Crap Kraft Dinner' has to be my favourite off that album. All the people I love are here, All the people that I love can't hear. All the people I love are drunk, All the people that I love are here. All the people I love are here, All the people that I love come here. All the people I love are drunk, All the people that I think I am are drunk.

Daft Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Yeah that's amazing. I just really like the prince line it makes me chuckle. I'll have to give it another listen to. 'The Warning' is what I put on whenever I need some Hot Chipage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan_Dare Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 yeah me too. Figured I'd hit up the other LP though as I found my CD copy and my pc was off. Glad I did as I basically wrote it off a while ago. Cannot think why for the life of me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd listen to it if it came on but I probably wouldn't put it on. Apart from 'We're Looking for a Lot of Love', I'm not a fan of Made in the Dark. 'Ready for the Floor' is okay but it is completely outdone by a lot of remixes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daft Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 One for Hot Chip fans: Did you hear that the incredible Hot Chip are releasing a new EP on December 22nd will Robert Wyatt and Goose creatively titled With Robert Wyatt and Goose EP? This reinterpretation of “Made in the Dark†our first taste of the EP. It’s a staggering piece of work if you ask me. Don’t get me wrong, I love Hot Chip’s technolicious loudness, but listening to their sweet and smoldering ballads is just as momentous — a trick no mere dance act was supposed to master. Personally my favourite Hot Chip songs are the slower ones. 'Look After Me' being my absolute 100% favourite. I quite like this loungy version of 'Made in the Dark'. New Hot Chip (ft. Robert Wyatt) - Made in the Dark Anyone listened to the acoustic version of 'Boy From School'? I love it. --- Anyone listened to Ellie Goulding? I'm really liking the sound of 'Wish I Stayed'. It has grown on me. http://www.myspace.com/elliegoulding Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bard Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Anybody here like The Locust? Every sound they make horrifies me, yet I'm completely addicted. Saw them live a couple of weeks ago too, in their frankly ridiculous Locust suits. Great band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

killthenet Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Yeah man, The Locust are great! Don't like their new costumes though, the ones they had a few years back were great. They supported the Yeah Yeah Yeah's at Birmingham Academy ages ago, all the YYY's fans were shouting at them and throwing shit at the stage, but The Locust just played harder and shouted back at them. The drummer threw up into a cup and threatened to throw it at them if they didn't shut the fuck up. Good times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fierce_LiNk Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 I've had Hallelujah stuck in my head all day, so now I'm trying to learn the Jeff Buckley version on Guitar. Although, I haven't had much time to play, as people are sleeping. I wish I was as kick-arse as he was, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paj! Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 I've been giving some generic collection of Marilyn Monroe songs a spin for a while. I never really though about how cool her voice is. Actually wavering all over the place, could be in some jokng, mildly-successful indie band nowadays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashley Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 Anyone else heard of The Pierces? Quite liking their album Thirteen Tales of Love and Revenge at the moment. Not sure who they're like (last.fm says Soho Dolls, Imogen Heap and others) Anyway, obligatory youtube videos: (that ones just random images) Plus they're easy on the eyes :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bard Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 Being the bitter human being that I am, I feel the need to inflict my addiction to this song on everyone: Yeah man, The Locust are great! Don't like their new costumes though, the ones they had a few years back were great. They supported the Yeah Yeah Yeah's at Birmingham Academy ages ago, all the YYY's fans were shouting at them and throwing shit at the stage, but The Locust just played harder and shouted back at them. The drummer threw up into a cup and threatened to throw it at them if they didn't shut the fuck up. Good times. To be fair, they're one of those bizarre bands that don't work on record at all. In fact I don't think they do anything particularly special musically, it's just live that the spectacle is so thoroughly surreal that you can't help but be slightly mesmerised. Kinda like Genghis Tron... Also: Seeing as I'm fairly hyperactive at this moment in time, and in the mood to make controversial statements, I'll just go ahead and say it: Blink 182 are the Led Zeppelin of our generation.

I don't think they were quite as epic as the Zep, but they certainly did have a big impact on creating pop/punk music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not talking about style of music, but more about the impact they have/ had on the kids that listened to them at the time. Both bands have some pretty iconic songs, and both bands defined the popular musical zeitgeist to an extent. To some people First Date might be their equivalent of Black Dog, if you see what I mean. Maybe I'm just talking shit. Had an interesting convo with a mate about this though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
