Music Thread

[tater]

It's funny, I have a thing for filmi music (Bollywood stuff), and SE asian pop---well, pop from the 80s there, anyway. I don't know any of it really, I have a little picked pretty much at random. For me it's evocative of the 7 months I spent bumming around Asia after college.

Oh wow... I just found a video of... well, me... onstage in 2009.

I didn't know any still existed... I thought they had all been lost.

This is a little embarrassing, but why not, it is a music thread.

OK, this is the last song of the last set of the same festival I posted a pic of earlier in this thread... and everyone, including a bunch of the crowd, came onstage for one final jam session sort of thing.

The sound isn't the best, sorry... I didn't record this. But if you look, you'll see a rather goofy looking guy in a floppy hat and red T-shirt take the mike at about 3:30...

That goofy guy is me, playing a high-G sunflower stalk flute (no kidding)... 

Try not to laugh to hard... lmao....

Gonna leave that one as a link, as the only good, unedited version I could find was a lyric video and the lyrics are not the type of thing that should be displayed on this forum, but in the interest of displaying my musical tastes I should leave it there

^^My favourite artist from my home country^^

Does self made music count? If so, here's a cover of the KSP theme I did today:

 

Also, there's this if it hasn't been posted already:

@Ultimate Steve I love that song AND the video

[Jeb1969]

Nothing in my mind makes me feel like I am in deep space in a Science Fiction setting more than listening to this very moving and quite dramatic work by Yanni. 

The same thing can be said about this extremely serene work by Enya, but unlike Yanni's Twilight which makes me feel like I'm in some sort of Science Fiction film or TV show set in Deep Space, this one rather makes me think of the natural satellites or moons of Saturn, probably because of the title of this particular song

Tell about your favourite band, genre!

I like Metallica, Eagles(especially Hotel California[single]!)

I like thrash metal, metal, country rock, R&B

[Nuke]

in before this turns into one of those atrocious threads where everyone just posts videos. i like metal, mostly of the doom, sludge, black, and thrash varieties, outlaw country, classic rock, motorhead (its its own genre imho), with some classical and opera thrown in. i dont like anything that is over processed or autotuned, this is the cancer that is ruining music today.

That line makes sense when you consider that Hotel California was rumored to be about addiction. I just checked the wiki but couldn't confirm that. Seems mostly about the fine line between the American Dream and the American Nightmare in the wiki

I really don't care to what I listen. Most things are fine. But, play a pop song from 2010 on or so, and I may have a desire to murder you.

In other news, been listening to the beetles and had Penny Lane stuck in my head for a bit

 

[Just Jim]

Can't get Beck out of my head today.... lmao....

Saw him a couple times live, my GF (now wife) had a few of his albums. Great shows, incredible guitarist. 

[Durtle02]

I like to listen to the FTL: Faster Than Light soundtrack, Scott Joplin, or Super Mario Galaxy soundtrack. Good Stuff.

I love this song although honestly It gets played too much. The song believe it or not is actually a giant metaphor for someone who checks into a rehab clinic. as Don Henley sings, the clues start coming the first comes in my opinion with the lines "We haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixty-nine" and "Her mind is Tiffany Twisted she got the Mercedes Bends." and by the end with the final words before one of the greatest guitar solos ever composed the musical image becomes clear.
