Tori Amos - Horses

It's coming. Slowly but steadily.

So I'll make a game out of it, and you may all prepare:
I'll post the song that made me jump the line. My 50th thousand.

And you will be able to make suggestions as to what to do with it afterwards.

Make a playlist with it?
Burn a CD and send it to someone?
Never listen to it again for a year and a day?

Or something much more interesting?
Perhaps something involving the title or lyrics (if applicable)?

I don't know. You tell me.
I'll pick the most enjoyable suggestion. :)

01. Dead Can Dance
02. Depeche Mode
03. Pulsar Bleu
04. VNV Nation
05. Vangelis
06. Covenant
07. Joy Division
08. Johnny Cash
09. Die Fantastischen Vier
10. New Order

What was the first song you ever heard by 6 Covenant?
-This has to be Dead Stars. And it's also the reason I developed into the great Covenant fan that I am, now. The Sax-part really sealed it for me. And the dancebility is a great bonus.

What is your favourite album of 2 Depeche Mode?
-Oi. That's a tough one. I thin I'll have to nominate…

01. I don't listen to Emo music.
—
Fuck, most of them wouldn't know/like half of what I listen to.

02. I don't dress Emo.
—
Right, I wear lots of black. Fucking Johnny Cash wore lots of black. Goths wear black. Alternatives wear black. Grungers occasionally wear black. Even Busta Rhymes sometimes wore black.

03. I don't whine Emo.
—
Yeah, I can wine. But I sure as hell don't go Pretentious Weltschmerz on your asses. *g*

04. I don't have Emo hair.
—
Seriously. That simply looks totally ridiculous. People think Goths are uniformed. What the hell's up…

'Godfather of Soul' James Brown Dies

ATLANTA - James Brown, the dynamic, pompadoured "Godfather of Soul," whose rasping vocals and revolutionary rhythms made him a founder of rap, funk and disco as well, died early Monday, his agent said. He was 73.[/i>

Well. Damn. :(

Rest in peace, soul man.

And on Christmas morning, to boot. :(

So, I'm listening to Dead Good Years by b-Movie right now. Until yesterday, I only really knew Nowhere Girl by them.

I liked for all very, very different reasons, one of them being schneeweisschen. *smiles*

Their sound has something I dearly miss with most modern music. It mixes electronica and synths with a voice you can easily remember.

In a way, they're like an early fusion of Depeche Mode and Welle:Erdball. And by this I don't want to say that they're a derivate or even sound particuallary like those bands. To me, the just feel like them. Like…

My grandma died.
When I wrote some people about this, I heard this song.

"re: grandmas death
music: covenant - pulse"

Damn, that was a weird day indeed…

…manage to do so much and being so little at the same time. Tribute here, just makes you feel good.

Everytime I listen to it, I have to smile. My spirit gets a nice lift up and the brilliant video comes into my mind.

It doesen't matter if I'm driving, writing, doing assignments or just being lazy or being with friends, this song always draws heads and smiles all over.

It's simple. It's straight-forward.

It's great.
Just great.

I heard my first Cabaret Voltaire song in the HMV in London, near Leicester Square… Or was it Piccadilly? Damn… I can't remember it. :-/

Nevertheless… I was there with my girlfriend. We had 'talked' a few hours ago. We had broken up.

Well, so we walked around London. Thinking about stuff. And I… Well, I tried to not mess the day up for her. We entered HMV. She knew how much I like music. She stayed there with me, for about two full hours. During this time, they played his "The Orginal Sound Of Sheffield 78-82" CD out…

I recently watched the first season of Buffy on DVD, and, well, they played a stage performance there. I didn't think that they actually existed, as the series is pretty old and, well, they aren't on my musical radar.

But they do indeed exist. I shall investigate further. *grins*
