Goafer Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Quite liking Rancid/Lars Frederiksen and the Bastards at the moment. This one in particular seems rather appropriate: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ipaul Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 Lift Off, by Jay Z/Kanye West feat Beyonce. Love this song at the moment. I'm not gonna link a Youtube video because they keep going down. But find it. Listen to it. It's rather good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pancake Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 I've recently rediscovered this and can't stop listening. Such a good remix. And i hate remixes. But tracks like this justify them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aneres11 Posted August 12, 2011 Author Share Posted August 12, 2011 Hhhmm. The unthinkable is happening... I think I am becoming a Taylor Swift fan. Stumbled across this... And it has made me check the album out on Spotify and I really like it. Despite the fact that she often uses too many lyrics which does frustrate me ha. I couldn't really do with her until hearing this. But yeah likin that track at the min. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paj! Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 Speak Now is one of my favourite albums of 2010. Bearing in mind that year also birthed Have One on Me by Joanna Newsom and I Speak Because I Can by Laura Marling, two of my favourite (and best) albums ever, probably. I heart Taylor Swift with a love that was once reserved only for Miley Cyrus' solo material (lel), but now goes beyond that, as she is actually a talented songwriter and I've always enjoyed country-pop-rock crossover shizz. The album before that has good singles, the rest is ok. Not bothered with her first one, I assume it's bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have always enjoyed Miley Cyrus' solo stuff too - both albums. What I think I like about Speak Now is it isn't as country as I thought it would be for Taylor Swift. It reminds me of Vanessa Carlton and some Miley Cyrus stuff too and I think that's why I like it. Also, as you say she writes it all herself which is always a good thing in my opinion.

Ashley Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 Got both of these albums now too. Just waiting for iTunes to stop being such a useless turd before I can put them on and go go go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eenuh Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Currently can't stop listening to Somebody I used to know by Gotye (ft. Kimbra). I loved his first album so I was happy to hear he got a new one coming out. This song took me a few listens to get into, but now I can't stop listening to it. Love his voice. Kimbra sounds a bit like Katy Perry though (don't know her or any of her music). And the video is just nice. =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fierce_LiNk Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Gotye is good. Gonna listening to that song right after this one... Love this song. I hate the use of the word "epic", especially with all this epic fail crap. But, this song truly deserves that word. It is epic. When I close my eyes, I think of it as the big bang taking place, the planets forming, night separating from day. Then, when it gets crazy around that 5 minute mark, I think of war, humanity's struggle. It's like a history of the world. How the music quietens to signify the peaceful times on the planet, then the loud shows the violence. From about 13 mins onwards, its like the world as it is today, or even in the future. Those noises at the end remind me of a rocket taking off, or a plane flying by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aneres11 Posted August 17, 2011 Author Share Posted August 17, 2011 Her best song in years. Though I've always been a massive fan. Her new album 'The Sea' she says is her best since Northern Star. A very very bold statement Mel! Can't wait for it though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paj! Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 I doubt it'll be as good as Northern Star... I've never listened to any other album of hers in full. Never impressed me with any of the other singles. This one is ok. Same with Rock Me Baby or whatever. Just a bit forgettable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never impressed me with any of the other singles. This one is ok. Same with Rock Me Baby or whatever. Just a bit forgettable. Yeah Northern Star the song is my favourite song ever. I adore. Nothing comes close. The album is also very good. I like how there is quite a mixture of stuff on there. Mel has said 'The Sea' is the closest to that mixture and she feels her voice has matured a lot over the years and is stronger and overall, the album is her best yet. Which judging by that song seems to be the case. It's a great track. Shame radio 1 won't play it. She has always missed the idea with singles unfortunately. Her second album 'Reason' was very very good. But she should have released On the Horizon as the lead single but instead chose Here it Comes Again - a trend that has seemed to plague her. Thing is, it's down to Mel too, as the record label she is signed to is her own. This time though she's picked the right song imo and hopefully it will make people pick the album up. She's too talented a writer / singer to not get the recognition she should have had years ago. I don't think 'the spice girl with the best voice' means anything to her nowadays. And why would it when everyone knows that anyways lol. We want sales damnit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
