Ok. I'll admit it.
I really like christina aguilera's new single.
-
whaaaaaa? Christina Slutulera? I don't think I can talk to you anymore :'(
-
I have a record by The Blow Monkeys
ElJeffe was present for the purchase at Crunchy Records in Greensboro, NC.
"So tell me why, I'm diggin' your scene...."
-
I have a Fine Fresh Fellows CD, and it is wayyyyy cool.
-
"Fine" Fresh Fellows or the Young Fresh Fellows? YFF is way cool, and should in no way be connected to a "shameful" listening section. Who the Fine Fresh Fellows are I have no clue.
-
I'm a Fine Fresh Fellow. I don't know which of my CD's ElJeffe has, but I hope it's the Waterworld soundtrack because I haven't been able to find that in years.
-
I think you scare me, Fell.
-
I'm fairly sure there is no such band as Fine Fresh Fellows, and I'm with Ehlers on Fine Fresh Fellows being 100% nonshameful. Their songwriter, Scott McCaughey, was one of the most influential in the early 80s power-pop scene, along with Peter Holsapple's dB's. I highly recommend the most recent YFF album, Because We Hate You, which contains "The Ballad of Only You and the Can Prevent Forest Fires", one of the sweetest songs ever written.
Does this new forum section mean I can start writing music reviews for Timewaster's? I mean, I like writing about RPGs and movies fine, but I would really go hog-wild if I was allowed to write album reviews.
-
As long as the movie and RPG reviews don't taper off, music reviews are fine (actually, we want the movie and RPG reviews to increase).
-
i actually like the new linkin park album
-
err sorry Young Fresh Fellows.. I was having a word associative day.
-
I think any J-Pop can be throwen into this topic.
-
J-pop being that god awful music that anime shows have?
-
yes and any pop music from japan
-
pop music? any music from japan!
-
Japan has some pretty happening Hip-hop right now.
-
it all started with Dragonash, this first serious Hop-hop japanese group. They're also the first ryme their lyirics. There is no word in the Japanese language for Ryme. They have some context for it as a word game but most Japanese words don't ryme very well. What dragonash did was make up sounds that sounded like words, but you understand what they mean (onomopiea words make up a large part of Japanese vocab). It's good. Look for Viva La Revolution CD, that was their break through and is pretty good (except for their english).
-
The japanese have no word for rhyme? I'm tucking that one away in my trivial knowledge folder. Thanks, Sprig!
-
Marcy Playground's "Sex and Candy."
Many of you may disagree that this is shameful music listening. But even though that soft groove gets me bobbing my head, I feel like I shouldn't be liking it.
-
My husband has all the Dragon Ash albums (I think all of them, anyway.) They are a very odd group to listen to. It would help if they either didn't sing in English or if they did sing in English but with lyrics that made SENSE.
But they sound good.
Lead Singer: "I wish I were bird."
Rest of singers: "We wish we were bird."
It makes my brain explode.
-
And Saint, I agree with you totally on that song. I like it, but I feel I shouldn't
-
thats really funny!!
-
I only like Viva la revolution with is their second or third I beleave. I've listened to several of their newer stuff but don't care much for it, they've gotten the idea that every other word has to be the F-bomb for it to be rap. They'll even throw it in when the rest of the song is Japanese.
-
I think I've figured out your writing problem sprig,... you were really meant to be Japanese. It all makes sense now. I bet If you wrote that response in Japanese you would have rendered it perfectly.
-
hehe, you've discovered my secret now I must kill you. Ya knowing Japanese has screwed up my English a bit. They love passive and incomplete sentences.
-
I particularly like the substitution of the word "with" for the word "which".
-
I can't believe this thread died- I thought it was a great idea.
I hereby resurrect it.
I always feel guilty for listening to Billy Joel. My husband can't stand it because he had an ex-girlfriend who was obsessed with him, and listened to him constantly. I'm not in love with him or anything, but I do love a lot of his songs, and he's the only artist that I remember both my mother and father liking and introducing me to separately.
And yet, I always feel guilty for not changing the radio station when a Billy Joel song comes on.
-
Spice Girls.
-
...sob...prodigy...
*runs off and cries in a corner with firestarter playing in the background*
P.S. fuzzy, is the new member jtkauff related to you? cuz I think he has the same last name...I might just be going insane...
-
That would be my husband
-
uh for some reason I cant stop listening to U2's "the hands that built america"
that's what I thought, cuz I remember you saying that kauffman wasnt your maiden name...I think...
-
Sorting through some of my old MD's i came across one that was a radio mix and the first song is Len's "If you steal my Sunshine". I completly forgot about this cheesy song.
-
/me remembers the song instantly and falls to the floor in convulsions
-
Y'know, I really liked that song.
Less embarassing that the Spice girls at least.
-
Does she like butter tarts?

Does she like butter tarts?
Random question referring to my post several entries back?
-
Jam, You are hereby disowned from the BDC Nerdkore. You sad sad person....
-
Hey, I *created* BDC nerdkore as it exists today! I was the one who created the nerd clubs back when I was in year 12, thus fusing the possibilty for the joining of the senior and Junior nerd groups.
-
Well now the Junior and Senior Nerdkore Groups have joined to banish you from BDC Nerdkore.
-
out of space
-
*resurrection*
I like Pink *hangs head in shame*
Ok, really I only like 3 songs by Pink. but that's enough.
-
I've had it for months now and I can't quit listening to it.
Loretta Lynn's "Van Lear Rose"
Produced by Jack White and so, so good.
Yeah, it's country,but it's some new genre of it...
-
I put this here not because I'm ashamed of it, but because y'all would probably make fun of me for it. On the Itunes right now: Charlie Daniels Band, Devil Went Down to Georgia. Just a fun song. If you like fiddling at all, it's just a great one.
-
I wouldn't make fun of that one. After all, the actual fiddle work is superior to Primus' cover of the song.
WHich is something I find odd. Why do bands make songs about great performers of instruments that they don't usually incorporate or are only average at? I mean Alex Lifeson covering "Little Drummer Boy?" Primus doing "Devil Went Down to Georgia?" I mean, really. I want to hear Neil Peart cover little Drummer Boy. That'd ROCK.

Make fun? Hardly. I grew up with that song.
