... My 5 favorite albums Oh my, always subject to change but i guess i'll give it a shot. 1. Murmur : R.E.M. 2. Go : Letters to Cleo 3. Morrison Hotel : The...
Everybody's top 5's are so different. I think R.E.M. has made a couple lists so far, but for the most part everything else (except TBG) has been pretty unique....
the velvet undergound are top notch. a definite must listen. their influence on modern music is so deep, im surprised youve never heard them. the strokes might...
Yeah, I don't know how they managed to slip by me. I know they get major respect in music circles though. And it doesn't surprise me that people in this group...
As for Fur Elise, it's a little depressing for my ... That's funny one of the first songs I really learned to play on the piano was Fur Elise and I did go thru...
(And a real top 5 list would be impossible to decide upon. The only thing I know for sure is that Murmur will prolly always be my favorite album. -geosee3) ...
I have to agree with you. I put more stock into the opinions of the people in this group regarding music than the local guy who reviews CD's in the newspaper...
(Seriously though, I will say that this is one of the best groups I've ever been in. It's amazing how harmonious things are in here. Not the usual flame wars...
... the ... reviews ... there ... so ... I'm ... and ... Yeah, this group has some real friendly members. But the fact that only around 10 people post...
Good point about the lurkers. So maybe we should encourage them to post even if it stirs up some controversy? Anything as long as they get involved. I'll even...
Interesting. I'm a BoA fan and I didn't even know that. Those Korean artist names can be a little silly. A couple examples: Fin.k.l. - Fine Killing Liberty...
I'm a little confused now. I was talking to my fiancée who is a huge Kpop fan about BoA and the fact that I never heard that her name means "Beat of the...
... they ... my ... can ... I'm up for getting some more people involved, but i'd rather things stay relatively on topic. And Coke or Pepsi? Neither. Water for...
... Korean ... Here's some more odd Japanese band names: Seagull Screaming Kiss Her Kiss Her (Yes, that's the bands' name.) Thee Michelle Gun Elephant (Wha??) ...
... really ... I've read somewhere that said her full name was Kwon Boa. Perhaps they just shortened it and came up with a moniker to make it more profitable...
Water? God, I envy you! I would love to say I would choose neither Coke or Pepsi, but what can I say? The stuff has a hold on me (not proud of it too). Stern...
... about ... I used to be hooked on the Coke and Pepsi. We're talking 2 to 3 cans a day. After awhile I started developing a nasty after-taste in my mouth...
That first one is the best (or worse?)!! Talk about stream of conciousness! But I guess it's not just Japan anymore. Here's an American group you might have...
... I believe The Brilliant Green beats out Hysteric Blue by a year. The Brilliant Green's debut single came out in '97 while Hysteric Blue's debut single came...
Thee Michelle Gun Elephant is purposely odd. The band consciously picked words they knew didn't make sense together (and the 'thee' is a reference to one of...
Also worth noting, that western names are equally odd. Smashing Pumpkins? Radiohead? Supergrass? I think it's just something to do with the music industry in...
Those a pretty good too Nathan. The Underground Cowboy? Isn't it ironic that we were just talking a lot about The Underground Velvet in here? Haha..couldn't...
Agreed. Three words - Was (Not Was). And I must confess they hail from my neck of the woods (Detroit, Michigan). I'm not saying it's a bad thing (for any 80's...
LOL - see, underground velvet makes even less sense! lol yeah, Mr.Children is fantastic - there's actually a lot of thought behind that name. I read an...
... Ride, ... I'm also ... and "New Adventures In Hi-Fi"... I didn't realize what a huge loss ... Letters To Cleo I highly recomend checking out for all TBG...
The Violent Femmes, Especially live...Their "Viva Wisconsin" Album comes to mind, Live Acoustic concert really good stuff. So wheres everybody from anyway? I...
Blew A ton of money already on cd's in the past few weeks And i'm saving for A new computer. Plus my wife might kill me if I buy more cd's too soon. The moral...
