I'm also spotified up... Looks interesting...

 

Edit: and it appears not to like Windows 7... Or my computer.

[Eenuh]

Awww, I wanted to give this Spotify thing a try, but apparently it's not available in Belgium. How annoying. =(

Guess it's back to my own music...

 

*puts on Fleet Foxes*

[Dan_Dare]

ooh that reminds me!

 

*finds Fleet Foxes*

[DCK]

U2's new album has been leaked. Finding it on the street right now.

[GothicPlague]

Artists I have just found out Spotify doesn't have:

Fear Before The March Of Flames

You Slut!

The Appleseed Cast

65daysofstatic

 

Added some songs to that playlist as well I think

Oh god no.. When will it end.

[Paj!]

I'm officially on Spotify now. Dunno what to even listen to. And it's not scrobbling, Haggis, you lying dog.

[chairdriver]

I got Spotify.

 

How do I get to collaborative playlists?

[GothicPlague]

I'm officially on Spotify now. Dunno what to even listen to. And it's not scrobbling, Haggis, you lying dog.

 

You need to go to preferences.

 

I added Thursday, Muse, Los Campesinos!, Grammatics and IAMX to the list btw.

 

Also just added Manic Street Preachers - Judge Yr'self just because it's so awesome.

[Paj!]

You need to go to preferences.

 

Thanks.

 

Now where's this N-Europe Playlsit?

[Eenuh]

I wasn't sure what to think of Antony and the Johnsons - The Crying Light at first, but after listening to it again and again, I'm starting to really love it I think. =)

 

*listens more*

I've only listened once so far and was disappointed, but will give it more listens. Maybe it's a grower.

 

On "Dust and Water" in some places it sounds like Anthony is trying to eat the microphone.

[DCK]

Oh god no.. When will it end.

Guilty pleasure I guess. U2 got me into music with Vertigo

 

But to be honest, it's easy to hate U2 because of Bono being such an incredible prick. Doesn't mean their music is bad though. The new album is pretty great.

[Daft]

I like U2's old stuff. Achtung Baby is an awesome album.

 

I don't like their new albums and Bono can forcibly insert his private jet up his anus.

 

Spotify is pretty overwhelming at first. I had no idea who to search for.

 

Compliments iTunes really well.

Why does everyone hate Bono for doing a lot of charity work? Sure, he's a bit cocky some times but you can't really fault him for that for all the money he's given away and made for charitable causes.

 

 

Has anyone else heard the new album yet? I managed to get a few listens to it today, not finding it too great so far and I'm a ma-ha-hooooosive U2 fan. Hopefully it will grow on me a a bit, liked it more the 2nd time through and even more the 3rd time.....

[MoogleViper]

After a quick thread search I see a few other people here are into Bon Iver. I quite like it. I think the songs are great I just don't like the sound of his voice. It's just so unnatural. Why can't he just sing normally?

[Daft]

Because he is an hypocrite and he avoids paying tax.

 

Plus he is basically a "cool dad".

[Dante]

Thanks.

 

Now where's this N-Europe Playlsit?

 

I have forgotten about this.

It's a brilliant album...

 

Not as "WOW" as IAABN, but then it's more to do with nature, than human identity.

 

And I love the vocals of Dust & Water.

[Dyson]

Thanks.

 

Now where's this N-Europe Playlsit?

 

 

spotify:user:josh_is_daft:playlist:1XiwxmjrJgv8GYVKnSCcmq

 

Whack that in the top left corner. Added Lightspeed Champion, Groove Armada and a recent favourite Lazy Eye by Silversun Pickups. Yesss.

[S.C.G]

and a recent favourite Lazy Eye by Silversun Pickups. Yesss.

 

I've loved that track since hearing it a good while ago, that track is fucking epic win : peace: the rest of the album is awesome too.

[Paj!]

I've added a mixture;

 

Don't Look Back In Anger - Tori Amos

It's In Our Hands (Soft Pink Truth Single Mix) - Bjork

I Zimbra - Talking Heads

Wild Horses - Girls Aloud

Bedtime Story - Madonna

Tunic (Song For Karen) - Sonic Youth

 

I wanted to add Head Like A Hole by Nine Inch Nails, but they only had crazy remixes.

[chairdriver]

I added:

 

Seed Song - Cerys Matthews

Cloudbusting - Kate Bush

 

Did you add Vous by Camille Coolness?

 

Technically my least favourite off the album, because the lyrics are trivial, and I hate the way she says "Toni Blair".

[Coolness Bears]

Yeah I did Chairdriver!

 

I liked it. The "Toni Blair" thing left me uneasy but I do like the track. No where near the best but Still good in my ears. I like it's laid back sound.

[Paj!]

Just heard the first song I genuinely liked enough to buy on the collaborative playlist; The Man Comes Around by Johnny Cash.

 

I always meant to get into him proper...I might get American IV soon. Whoever added that gets a thumbs up.
