And I don’t listen to a whole lot of music either.
But I like music, nonetheness.

in July 3rd, 2008 @ 16:13New thread, yay. Thank you GAPA(s). (:
I am having a love affair with music right now. Specifically Modest Mouse, still, it’s what I need at the moment. Right now Trailer Trash.
I tried writing music on Finale a few times… it doesn’t really work… I wish I had a guitar to just doodle around on or could play a piano or something. Flute’s not exactly a lay-down-on-the-bed-staring-into-space-while-playing instrument.
It doesn’t sound good that way, at least, and is rather uncomfortable.

The Guy Your Parents Warned You About (200 piepoints, 14 wung points)
in July 3rd, 2008 @ 21:343- I like Finale, except it’s almost impossible to just sit down and write music- you have to know what you’re writing.
Am I the only one here who is most comfortable with wooden sticks in my hands? Or are there any other drumers out there?

in July 3rd, 2008 @ 22:463/8–Ugh, I had Finale Notepad (the free version, not even the downloadable kind). Talk about mindnumbingly slow. But then I got Reason, and it’s amazingly complicated but really cool. You can write like full scores on it and everything. I’m currently writing the soundtrack to the movie I’m screenwriting/graphic-noveling/just noveling.
*Sigh* I love piano. I played for 9 years, and even tho I don’t take lessons anymore I play like everyday. Right now I’m working on memorizing some Vince Guaraldi pieces (he wrote all the Peanuts stuff plus some really nice piano jazz). Also Fur Elise (the full classical version) because even after 9 years I never learned it. I was DEPRIVED! (not really)
I really want to learn electric guitar. My dad has an acoustic, so I’ve been teaching myself on that, but it’s not really the same. Really I just want to get a really loud amp and play heavy metal at night, or something awesome like that.

in July 4th, 2008 @ 11:249- That’s what makes electric guitars so awesome. My friend is fixing an old, broken guitar, and when he’s done, he’ll have three electrics and one acoustic. (His brother has two electrics on top of that) I may ask him for the old Strat he doesn’t use anymore. If not, I’ll just buy one myself and wake the neighbors up at three in the morning.

in July 4th, 2008 @ 19:01I love piano! I play it very badly until I memorize the song and practice it about 10,000 times. So I can play about 5 1/2 songs.
I’ve asked this a billion times, but does anyone else like Fleetwood Mac? Anybody?

Beatlesrockr(10piepoints)&Hiejayko and JOHN
in July 4th, 2008 @ 20:11I like to write my own music… piano and guitar.
I jot down random notes on a blank staff that sits in the stand. It would just look like scribbles to anyone with a few halves, quarters, and rests that can just be made out here and there. But I can assure you, it’s music.
I’m not the best at piano, I don’t take lessons, though my sister does. I took enough lessons to know how to play, but not all that fancy stuff.
As for guitar, that’s different…

Turquoise, with 8 KAG points
in July 4th, 2008 @ 23:10My music taste is really random. I don’t like a song until I’ve heard it a million times, which explains why I have basically the same taste in music as my parents. Even if I get a new Beatles CD, I won’t like it until I’ve heard it 4-5 times.
My mp3 player is therefore full of music from “The Pirates who Don’t Do Anything” to the Spamalot soundtrack to Beatles.Music is good.

in July 4th, 2008 @ 23:40Listening to: Feels Like Heaven (Fiction Factory)
Yes, I know it’s old. My dad played it all the time when I was five. And ever since. So, you could say it’s a fond childhood memory.
Now listening to: Heaven is Closer (???)
I know it’s old. Be quiet.

kiwimuncher (2 B-Day points)
in July 5th, 2008 @ 08:43Oh MY! I LOVE playing piano! I do believe I have played it since I was in the second grade! *hugs piano books*
Right now, my one frustration is Fur Elise. I should have learned it 1 or 2 years ago, but I just never got to it. I thought I had it down pat, but my piano teacher told me I had the timing wrong on this one part (I had to play it twice as fast) and we wanted me to play the whole song several times faster anyway. Arg! I can’t get the twice as fast part. My fingers always seem to fumble somewhere. And now my family has been driven crazy by it because I’ve played that one part constantly over and over so many times that they’re going mad. *sigh*
24) Don’t be ashamed! I LOVE Carrie Underwood! She is my most favoritest singer EVER!

Nthanda the Laugher
in July 5th, 2008 @ 10:42I got this awesome book called “100 Greatest Piano Pieces of All Time”. It’s pretty much my FAVORITE right now. It has everything from Bach to contemporary.
Speaking of contemporary, has anyone (probably a piano player) heard of Alberto Ginastera? I’ve played his stuff a few times, it’s pretty sweet.
Current fave song: Four Minutes, by Madonna and JT. I know. I can’t understand it, either. But if it helps, I just got into Elvis as well. I’m about to go download a bunch of his musica.

in July 5th, 2008 @ 12:52let’s play a game! (i stole it from facebook, don’t worry) post the first line of the first ten songs that come up on shuffle, and have people try to guess the song name and artist (no googling!)
alternatively, we could just post the first five songs that come up on shuffle and go “ooh, i like that song” or “uugh, why do you have that” or “hmm, never heard of that”
ooor we could just talk about music. but i’m in a game-playing mood i guess

24 – I like most of those bands too.
26 – I love that song! I listened to it nonstop when I first got it, but I haven’t seen the music video. *goes to watch*
29 – I know what you mean; “Four Minutes” is inexplicably addictive.

Midnight Fiddler (she of the 2 spdzk and 500 PiePoints)
in July 5th, 2008 @ 18:44in the beginning of this thread, some people were talking about music software….does anyone else here have Sibelius? That’s what I use, but I don’t write that much music. When I do it’s usually at the command of my violin teacher…..sometimes at gunpoint. (Nah, actually my current teacher is pretty cool, my first one though….yikes.)
When I do actually write songs I usually find it easiest to do on the lap dulcimer. Probably because I can’t play the beast very well so I have t make up my own stuff to play…..oh well.

3) Oh no there goes the box again, we’ll try without it anyway. “”You come out at night, that’s when the energy comes [and the dark sides light, and the vampires roooaaaaam, you stretch your *** to where in a suicide poem, and a cross, from a faith, that died… before Jesus came…)” (sorry, I like that song…)

10) “Well all’s not well, but I’m told that it’lll all be quite nice (we’ll be drowned in boots like mafia, but your feet’ll still float like christ/Well I’ll be damned… they were right/I’m drowning upside down-own-own… my feet afloat like christ/I’m in heaven tryin’ to figure out which sack/they’re gonna stuff us athiests into, and Peter and his monley laugh/And I laugh with them… not sure what at.)”So I’ve learned from this experiment I cannot bear to just post one line. Esspecally if I really like the song. Be greatful my fingers can’t keep up with most of the music.

in July 5th, 2008 @ 22:23Double post, sorry, but you know what’s really freaky? I went onto Myspace and looked at “The Beatles” profile. Okay. Then, I wandered off to the specific members. I saw Paul McCartney’s. Fine. Then Ringo Starr’s. Fine. Then I wandered upon George Harrison’s.
He has been a member since 2006. Feeling something was amiss (I knew he was dead, and his last login was last August or something) I Googled him. He’s been dead since 2001.

I do love sad songs, though. They seem more realistic. Maybe because I usually feel like writing poetry and stuff when I’m depressed.
Requires experimentation, I believe. FOR SCIENCE I MUST NOW CONSUME UNHEALTHY AMOUNTS OF CHOKLIT ICE CREAM AND STAY ONLINE TALKING TO FRIENDS ALL NIGHT. YES.

I read the books, after being practicaly forced to at gunpoint by two of my best friends. I wasn’t really that impressed. I’ll read the last book of the series, but only after it is available from the library, no way am I going to buy it. One can only stand descriptions of Eddie’s “marble” features so many times…….c’mon, give it a break.

in July 7th, 2008 @ 19:2286~ Simple: I like to read. Besides, I was getting sick of having them gush all the time and not know what they meant, so I decided to read the books, if I liked them, to join in the guching, if i hated them to tell the said friends so, and hopefully move to new topics of conversation. Unforunately, now they just stare at me and go, “You didn’t like them? Really?? How??? But, but……” *sigh* so much for my tactics.
87~ Yeah, I just don’t care much for trashy romance novels.
88~ You’ve read Twilught?? *giggles uncontrolably* Sorry, it’s just a funny thought…..

in July 8th, 2008 @ 13:5363 – Myspace is freaky that way; even Julius Caesar has his own page!
85 – I’m not much of a Twilight fan either, but I have to admit that Edward – or at least the mysterious vampire persona- is attractive.
95 – I thought I would hate “I Kissed a Girl,” but actually it’s pretty catchy.
Now that my iTunes is working again:
1) If the fish swam out of the ocean and grew legs and they started walking… [I’m currently obsessed with this song]
2) There was a gallant lofty ship, A-sailing on the sea, (Blow high! Blow low!) and so sailed we…
3) Walk across the courtyard, towards the library…
4) They called me “The Leather Apron,” they called me “Smiling Jack”…
5) Pass me a rum as I pass you by, pass me a rum old friend…
6) Raising the flag on the masthead, the sails and the ropes holding tight…
7) Ktulu, Ktulu so bad, he’s driving me mad…
8) Pain without love, pain, can’t get enough…
9) You stepped off the Greyhound in Polkatella, Idaho; I took you to the Rocky Horror Show…
10) I woke up with blood-shot eyes, struggled to memorize…

As Clarissa says, “I liked Panic! At the Disco. Panic at the Disco sucks.”
I agree with her on that one. I also looked up Lucent Dossier (from the IWS,NT video) and found their costumage similar to the costumage of the music Pippin by Bob Fosse.

Depends on the cds, maybe. I personally love them.Their lyrics are mindblowing. Epiphanies that puch you in the face while saying “I love you” was how I described it before I think.

More Sonata Arctica fans, yay! And Elvenking ♥.

in July 11th, 2008 @ 18:4929 (Nthanda): I’ve played Ginastera — I did a Spanish piano music project in 9th grade and he was one of the main composers I focused on. I learned the Danzas Argentinas. Have you played those?
And now, I shall venture onto iTunes to play Ebeth’s game. I think my iPod is dead right now, but everything on iTunes is on my iPod anyway, so I hope it doesn’t matter.
1. Eran la cinco la mañana.
2. Ahh, an afternoon alone with my favorite book, “Broadway Musicals of the 1940s.”
3. When I find myself in times of trouble, Kokopelli happens by, speaking words of comfort: Have a pie. (Yes, really.)
4. Well it starts in the morning when you get out of bed and take a look in the Mirror of Erised.
5. Mother said, straight ahead, not to delay or be misled.
6. When the cold of winter comes, starless night will cover day.
7. Little boxes on the hillside, little boxes made of ticky tacky.
8. Lolly lolly lolly get your adverbs here.
9. Well the students at Hogwarts are sorted into houses according to whatever that shifty sorting hat says they ought to do.
10. There are few who deny, at what I do I am the best, for my talents are renowned far and wide.I went through thirty songs to get these ten with lyrics. *Classical geek.*

I can tell
Sitting in the U-Bend
Disregarding the smellGo take a pee
It’s all fine and well
But don’t throw that book at me
You’ll go to hellChorus
My life was full of misery
And you’re still mean to me
And though I’ve taken my last breath
Now you’re ruining my deathContemplating suicide
From what Peeves said
Then I remembered
I’m already deadWanted peace and quiet
Look what I got instead
Nothing but a stupid book
Falling through my headChorus
Let’s all throw books at Myrtle
Because she is dead
And you’ll win fifty points
If it goes through her headLet’s all throw books at Myrtle
While she’s trying to pee
But just wait till it’s your turn
And you’ll be sorryDon’t throw that book at me, Ginny
Don’t throw that book at me, GinnyChorus
Don’t throw that book at me, Ginny
Don’t throw that book at me, GinnyXD Gawd, I love wizard rock.

in July 12th, 2008 @ 17:13153 – Is it 1985 by Bowling For Soup?
My current list:
1) If the fish swam out of the ocean and grew legs and they started walking…
2) There was a gallant lofty ship, A-sailing on the sea, (Blow high! Blow low!) and so sailed we…
3) Walk across the courtyard, towards the library…
4) They called me “The Leather Apron,†they called me “Smiling Jackâ€â€¦
5) Pass me a rum as I pass you by, pass me a rum old friend…
6) Raising the flag on the masthead, the sails and the ropes holding tight…
7) Ktulu, Ktulu so bad, he’s driving me mad…
8 ) Pain without love, pain, can’t get enough…
9) You stepped off the Greyhound in Polkatella, Idaho; I took you to the Rocky Horror Show…
10) I woke up with blood-shot eyes, struggled to memorize…This list really isn’t fair, though, because except for #10, #3, and maybe #1, the songs are all by pretty obscure groups. If I have some spare time later I might make a new list with better-known bands.

in July 12th, 2008 @ 18:10You and I in a little magic shop
Buy some Chocolate Frogs with the money we’ve got
Set them free but they don’t last long
They’re good for one jump, then they’re done
At the base of my spine I get a tingling sense
Something evil is about to commence
Under cover of a darkened sky
99 Death Eaters go by99 Death Eaters under cover of a darkened sky
The Ministry’s on red alert
And something here from somewhere else
The Aurors all spring to life
Moody opens up his eye
And focusing it on the sky
As 99 Death Eaters go by99 Decision Street
99 ministers meet
To worry worry, super scurry
Call Dementors in a hurry
This is what we’ve waited for
This is it boys, this is war
Cornelius Fudge is on the line
As 99 Death Eaters go by99 knights of the air
Ride their magic Firebolts
Everyone’s a super-hero
Everyone’s a Ludo Bagman
The goal is to identify
Clarify and classify
Scramble in the darkened sky
As 99 Death Eaters go by
99 Death Eaters go byyyyyyyy99 dreams I have had
The Dark Mark’s floating in the air
It’s all over and I’m standing pretty
In what used to be the city
If I could find something tragic
Just to prove there once was magic
And here is a Chocolate Frog
I think of you and let it gowrock rox!

And it’s amusing thnking the words over the singer’s voice.I was listening to KT Tunstall a bit. Saw an awsome tap routine to Black Horse and a Cherry Tree at a friend’s dance recital.
She’s not bad at all, kind of remi oh wow there goes the box. I don’t remember where I started deleting so I’ll finish with — a cross between Jewel and Ani DiFrance.GrrrrIE.

But doors open at eleven, I’ll be there until two. Anyway. I have no idea when what bands are playing. So. Apparently at the first show Cobra played at 2:50, but at a more recent one they played at noon. So I have no idea if I can see them or not. I hope so I hope so I hope so.

in July 16th, 2008 @ 10:32I like I’ll Make a Man out of You from Mulan!!!!!
Let’s get down to business
To defeat the Huns
Did they send me daughters
When I asked for sons?
You’re the saddest bunch
I ever met
But you can bet
Before we’re through
Mister, I’ll make a man
out of youTranquil as a forest
But on fire within
Once you find your center
you are sure to win
You’re a spineless, pale
pathetic lot
And you haven’t got a clue
Somehow I’ll make a man
out of youI’m never gonna catch
my breath
Say good-bye to those
who knew me
Boy, was I a fool in school
for cutting gym
This guy’s got ’em
scared to death
Hope he doesn’t see
right through me
Now I really wish that I
knew how to swim(Be a man)
We must be swift as
the coursing river
(Be a man)
With all the force
of a great typhoon
(Be a man)
With all the strength
of a raging fire
Mysterious as the
dark side of the moonTime is racing toward us
till the Huns arrive
Heed my every order
and you might survive
You’re unsuited for
the rage of war
So pack up, go home
you’re through
How could I make a man
out of you?(Be a man)
We must be swift as
the coursing river
(Be a man)
With all the force
of a great typhoon
(Be a man)
With all the strength
of a raging fire
Mysterious as the
dark side of the moon(Be a man)
We must be swift as
the Coursing river
(Be a man)
With all the force
of a great typhoon
(Be a man)
With all the stength
of a raging fire
Mysterious as the
dark side of the moonYayayayayayay!

in July 16th, 2008 @ 15:24Don’t Let the Truth get in the Way (of a Good Story)
On a steamer bound for Baltimore
I said that’s no fun, i’ve been there before
So I jumped ship in Singapore
——–With a cook from Mexico
Got a bowl of shark-fin soup,
Ducked into a bar for a couple a scoops
Played some texas-stud with a circus troop
——–and they cleaned me out of dough
At dawn they all went back to bed,
I went to Borneo instead,
Had a hair-of-the dog for my shrunken head,
——–With the sultan of Brunei
Had a small bit of a seizure
On the way to Micronesia
Got a bad case of amnesia
——–And forgot to say goodbye
Don’t let the truth get in the way of a good story
No harm no foul no crime
Don’t let the truth get in the way of a good story
It’ll get ‘em every time.
Stopped in Tajikistan on the way to Iran,
Took a break in Jamaica to work on my tan,
Swam from Cayo Fragoso to Carriacou
I climbed Machu Pichu in Darkest Peru
Had a pint with the pope and played pool with the queen
She’s good with a stick if you know what I mean
I once had a job riding bulls in Montana
I taught Jimi Hendrix the star-spangled banner,
I’ve been to Morocco, Malawi, Macau
I know how to fly, but I won’t tell you how
Don’t let the truth get in the way of a good story
No harm no foul no crime
Don’t let the truth get in the way of a good story
It’ll get ‘em every time.
Bought an ice cold coca-cola
From a Congolese High-Rollah
Got deported from Angola
——–To a castle on the Rhine.
Ask anyone that knew me,
The Emir of Bahrain sued me,
I was in a Blockbuster Movie
——–And I didn’t make a dime
Don’t let the truth get in the way of a good story
No harm no foul no crime
Don’t let the truth get in the way of a good story
It’ll get ‘em every time
~~~~~~~~
hee, hee. I like this one from the new CD.

in July 17th, 2008 @ 07:04186 – Ah, I felt like I should know it.
I will cheat and look up the NWTD remixes on iTunes..Yesyesyes Warped Tour!
Anyway. My first Warped Tour. We got there say…fifteen minutes after it opened and there were already a lot of bands playing by the time we got our tickets (long line). It wasn’t very crowded at first. I saw a little bit of Relient K (they played The Best Thing, which is the one song by them I know) and then later I watched the end of Gym Class Heroes’ set which was very good, actually, and I did a lot of wandering around. Hmm.. When we got there I got a Cobra “Fangs Up!†t-shirt and buttons at their booth thingy, and later on I watched the beginning of Reel Big Fish’s set and then we went to Cobra’s stage so we could be closer…to the stage. Except that’s right next to the OTHER stage, so we could here Reel Big Fish while Cobra was still setting up. So we were entertained And then I saw Cobra Starship (at 2:00)…and it was awesome…each band only played thirty minutes, so I wish it could have been longer, but it was still pretty awesome. We left after them (so I missed The Academy Is…, Katy Perry, and Say Anything, which was the LAST band playing (at eight) so that stunk; AND Cobra was one of the few bands signing, at 3:30, so I missed that too) and I was very exhausted. But I felt better afterwards.
Oh, and it was hot outside, but it wasn’t TOO hot. I wasn’t begging for water the entire time (although I did have a bottle and then some).
But all in all it was incredibly awesome. I have pictures that my mom and I took, and I have 15 seconds of Gym Class Heroes and 8 seconds of Cobra Starship video that my digital camera took. It’s actually pretty good quality; I’m surprised.
But yeah. Awesomeness.

in July 17th, 2008 @ 17:06195~ Same here. When I listen to music I often see certain events and pictures in my head or can almost smell things that I for some reason associate with that song. It’s rather strange, but sometimes I only remember things if I hear the music, and it goes both ways, I think of something and a song pops into my head.

Except for I Don’t Love You because the girl’s eyes gave me nightmares. But it’s still a really sad video.
195-There are like, tons of songs that trigger my waterworks. And most songs have a memory or person attatched to them.
We were at Ruby Tuesdays once, and they played Complicated over the intercom thing, and it brought up al these different memories. Me and most of my rfiends were all sniffling and trying to hold it together by the end. Ah, the good days of Avril Lavigne.

Vixen in the Eyes of the Moon
in July 19th, 2008 @ 14:04I saw the musical ‘Hedwig and the Angry Inch’ and I’ve had this song on my mind ever since-
The Origin of Love.
When the earth was still flat,
And the clouds made of fire,
And mountains stretched up to the sky,
Sometimes higher,
Folks roamed the earth
Like big rolling kegs.
They had two sets of arms.
They had two sets of legs.
They had two faces peering
Out of one giant head
So they could watch all around them
As they talked; while they read.
And they never knew nothing of love.
It was before the origin of love.The origin of love
And there were three sexes then,
One that looked like two men
Glued up back to back,
Called the children of the sun.
And similar in shape and girth
Were the children of the earth.
They looked like two girls
Rolled up in one.
And the children of the moon
Were like a fork shoved on a spoon.
They were part sun, part earth
Part daughter, part son.The origin of love
Now the gods grew quite scared
Of our strength and defiance
And Thor said,
“I’m gonna kill them all
With my hammer,
Like I killed the giants.”
And Zeus said, “No,
You better let me
Use my lightening, like scissors,
Like I cut the legs off the whales
And dinosaurs into lizards.”
Then he grabbed up some bolts
And he let out a laugh,
Said, “I’ll split them right down the middle.
Gonna cut them right up in half.”
And then storm clouds gathered above
Into great balls of fireAnd then fire shot down
From the sky in bolts
Like shining blades
Of a knife.
And it ripped
Right through the flesh
Of the children of the sun
And the moon
And the earth.
And some Indian god
Sewed the wound up into a hole,
Pulled it round to our belly
To remind us of the price we pay.
And Osiris and the gods of the Nile
Gathered up a big storm
To blow a hurricane,
To scatter us away,
In a flood of wind and rain,
And a sea of tidal waves,
To wash us all away,
And if we don’t behave
They’ll cut us down again
And we’ll be hopping round on one foot
And looking through one eye.Last time I saw you
We had just split in two.
You were looking at me.
I was looking at you.
You had a way so familiar,
But I could not recognize,
Cause you had blood on your face;
I had blood in my eyes.
But I could swear by your expression
That the pain down in your soul
Was the same as the one down in mine.
That’s the pain,
Cuts a straight line
Down through the heart;
We called it love.
So we wrapped our arms around each other,
Trying to shove ourselves back together.
We were making love,
Making love.
It was a cold dark evening,
Such a long time ago,
When by the mighty hand of Jove,
It was the sad story
How we became
Lonely two-legged creatures,
It’s the story of
The origin of love.
That’s the origin of love.

It sometimes gets annoying with the screaming, but I especially love it when the song gets to the lines “Windmill, Windmill for the land/Turn forever hand in hand/Take it all in on your stride/It is sinking, falling down/Love forever love is free/Let’s turn forever you and me/Windmill, windmill for the land/Is everybody in?”
It sounds like another song I’ve heard at that part. Or is it the same song? I am confused.
But I’m not a huge fan of the rapping. Just that part.I don’t know why, it kinda reminds me of The Cardigans – My Favourite Game. Weird huh?

in July 30th, 2008 @ 13:14My 1G Sansa is full, and I don’t want to delete anything, so I’m saving up for an iPod or bigger Sansa.
I’d rather an iPod though, because then I can plug it into a lot more things, and plus I like them a lot more.

I looked mp3 players on Amazon, and I found two really cool ones from Cody and Creative. I think I might get those instead.
But I like the iPod nano better…
But it’s really expensive…

Actually, this is the first song on MTV I’ve liked in ages, which is why I posted it.
Katy Perry
This was never the way I planned
Not my intention
I got so brave, drink in hand
Lost my discretion
It’s not what, I’m used to
Just wanna try you on
I’m curious for you
Caught my attentionI kissed a girl and I liked it
The taste of her cherry chap stick
I kissed a girl just to try it
I hope my boyfriend don’t mind it
It felt so wrong
It felt so right
Don’t mean I’m in love tonight
I kissed a girl and I liked it
I liked itNo, I don’t even know your name
It doesn’t matter
You’re my experimental game
Just human nature
It’s not what, good girls do
Not how they should behave
My head gets so confused
Hard to obeyI kissed a girl and I liked it
The taste of her cherry chap stick
I kissed a girl just to try it
I hope my boyfriend don’t mind it
It felt so wrong
It felt so right
Don’t mean I’m in love tonight
I kissed a girl and I liked it
I liked itUs girls we are so magical
Soft skin, red lips, so kissable
Hard to resist so touchable
Too good to deny it
Ain’t no big deal, it’s innocentI kissed a girl and I liked it
The taste of her cherry chap stick
I kissed a girl just to try it
I hope my boyfriend don’t mind it
It felt so wrong
It felt so right
Don’t mean I’m in love tonight
I kissed a girl and I liked it
I liked it

MissSwann, who is adding to her name for no particular reason.
in August 2nd, 2008 @ 11:21Has anyone heard of Enter the Haggis? Apparently it’s a good group…
Who’s to say
What’s impossible
Well they forgot
This world keeps spinning
And with each new day
I can feel a change in everything
And as the surface breaks reflections fade
But in some ways they remain the same
And as my mind begins to spread its wings
There’s no stopping curiosityI want to turn the whole thing upside down
I’ll find the things they say just can’t be found
I’ll share this love I find with everyone
We’ll sing and dance to Mother Nature’s songs
I don’t want this feeling to go awayWho’s to say
I can’t do everything
Well I can try
And as I roll along I begin to find
Things aren’t always just what they seemI want to turn the whole thing upside down
I’ll find the things they say just can’t be found
I’ll share this love I find with everyone
We’ll sing and dance to Mother Nature’s songs
This world keeps spinning and there’s no time to waste
Well it all keeps spinning spinning round and round andUpside down
Who’s to say what’s impossible and can’t be found
I don’t want this feeling to go awayPlease don’t go away
Please don’t go away
Please don’t go away
Is this how it’s supposed to be
Is this how it’s supposed to be

Jordan's Little Hippie
in August 2nd, 2008 @ 13:25245~ I like my iPod. I’ve tried my friend’s mp3 players of different brands, and none of them have been as easy to use, logical convenient and generally as useful as my iPod. I don’t think I’m too biased because if what I’m used to, but Katie’s mp3 player now (I can’t remember the rand) is made to look almost like an iPod, with the general buttons and whatnot being the same and a few extras like a radio and a recorder, but it is just plain hard to use. It’s bulkier than my old-style nano, yet has the same capacity. It takes a while to turn on and off, while an iPod takes less than a second to turn on, and goes off nearly as quickly. (That is one thing that does take a bit of getting used to, holding down the play button to turn it off, but after awhile it’s second nature.)
Anyway, this is probably way too much information and ranting, but I’d recommend an iPod over the other brands any day. Them’s my tuppence.

in August 5th, 2008 @ 07:31252-I have friends obsessed w/ ETH, and I have a few songs of theirs, myself. I went to one of their concerts, once, (I guess) but it was an open-air thing, and I was far away. Their Minstrel Boy song makes me want to crawl into a hole and die, becuase it’s way too fast-paced. Some of the other ones are fun, though… One Last Drink, Gasoline, Twirling Towards Freedom, Lancaster Gate…
I still like Kila. And They Might Be Giants is still an obsession (John Henry!).
I just got a CD of Prokofiev’s Romeo and Juliet, because I think I’m developing a Romeo and Juliet obession, too. fun.

Oh, yes. On my long road trip, the kids are invited to bring their own CDs to listen to in the vans. Which means, of course, that I will have to listen to intolerable amounts of rap, rock, pop, etc. HOWEVER, it also means that I can subject my fellow passengers to Joanna Newsom, the Pentangle, Mimi and Richard Farina…
I think this is going to be fun.

in August 6th, 2008 @ 08:41has anybody ever heard of the band vampire weekend? I only rally like their music for the musci and not the lyrics, but I’ll post some anyway. Half the time you can’t even understand what they’re saying, mind you.
A-Punk
Johanna drove slowly into the city
The Hudson River all filled with snow
She spied the ring on His Honor’s finger
Oh-oh-ohA thousand years in one piece of silver
She took it from his lilywhite hand
Showed no fear – she’d seen the thing
In the Young Men’s Wing at Sloan-KetteringLook outside at the raincoats coming, say OH
His Honor drove southward seeking exotica
Down to the Pueblo huts of New Mexico
Cut his teeth on turquoise harmonicas
Oh-oh-ohI saw Johanna down in the subway
She took an apartment in Washington Heights
Half of the ring lies here with me
But the other half’s at the bottom of the seaLike I said, the actual music is way better than the lyrics.

Feeling as good as lovers can, you know
Well, now we’re feeling so goodPickin’ up things we shouldn’t read
It looks like the end of history as we know
It’s just the end of the worldBack to the street where we began
Feeling as good as love, you could, you canInto a place, where thoughts can bloom
Into a room where it’s nine in the afternoon
And we know that it could be
And we know that it should
And you know that you feel it too
‘Cause it’s nine in the afternoonYour eyes are the size of the moon
You could ’cause you can so you do
We’re feeling so good
just the way that we do
When it’s nine in the afternoonYour eyes are the size of the moon
You could ’cause you can so you do
We’re feeling so goodBack to the street
Down to our feet
Losing the feeling of feeling unique
Do you know what I mean?Back to the place, hey
Where we used to say
Man it feels good to feel this way
Now I know what I meanBack to the street, back to the place,
Back to the room where it all began
Back to the street, back to the place,
Back to the room where it all began
‘Cause it’s nine in the afternoonYour eyes are the size of the moon
You could ’cause you can so you do
We’re feeling so good
Just the way that we do
When it’s nine in the afternoon

in August 11th, 2008 @ 01:13204- Japanese themes are awesome, especially the perky ones. Those never fail to lift my mood.
210 – I love Nightwish! I know a lot of people who stopped listening when they got a new singer, but I’m still a big fan.
218 – I use it every now and then, but ever since I got an iPod I haven’t listened to much radio of any kind.
224 – I used to like “Miss Murder”, but then I played it on the day that I later learned a family friend committed suicide. Ever since then I haven’t been able to enjoy it because whenever I hear it, I think of that. Plus, isn’t it a song about suicide? If so, that was a seriously freaky coincidence; I’m kind of afraid to play it again.
226 – I used to like it, but then I listened to it too much and now I’m tired of it.
250 – Ah, that song is so fun to sing with random people.
Currently listening to “United Lonely People” by Plastica. It’s my latest song obsession.
For those of you looking for an iPod alternative, the new Sony Walkman mp3 player (not sure if that’s the actual player name, but that is the brand) has worked well for me. I still prefer my iPod in most situations, mostly because it holds a lot more and it’s easier to use iTunes than Windows Media, but the walkman is great for exercising or traveling because it’s small and sturdy. It also holds a decent amount of music, but the thing I like best about it is the battery life. I have to charge my iPod every day, but the walkman is supposed to get 30 hours per charge and so far it’s lived up to that claim.

in August 17th, 2008 @ 03:21287-No. This is false. There is a difference between the band Panic! At the Disco and Panic at the Disco. Okay, same people maybe, but their music changed a lot. From stuff you can relate to, really great lyrics and music to more popish. Panic (minus the !) did not to “I Write Sins, Not Tragedies” and Panic! (plus the !) is less similar to Fall Out Boy. IMNSHO, Panic! was a heck of a lot better.
Okay, sorry, I get a bit freaked when people talk about Panic and Panic! as if they’re the same, especially since Panic! is my girlfriend’s favorite band and we both dislike just plain Panic.
ANyway.
The reason the songs thread is there is because this is a thread to talk ABOUT music. Lyrics are supposed to be posted on the LYRICS thread. It kinda cloggs up this one when you post lyrics.
Bands are a lot better when they’re not played on the radio. MCR is the only band I can think of that hasn’t gone all popish when it was overplayed, like Panic (NOT PANIC!).
Paramore, Flyleaf, Panic!, FOB, Cobra… they should have stayed underground.

I’m currently having an obseesion with a couple of new songs I got on iTunes. ‘Starlight’ by Muse is my favorite song in the world now. I also like Modest Mouse. ‘Missed The Boat’, ‘Float On’, and ‘Dashboard are all really great Modest Mouse songs.

It’s supposed to be sea chanties, but somehow a full chorus singing “Big Bowow” with harmonies just doesn’t work. It’s very pretty, but it’s not right. These are WORK songs, not pretty melodies to be harmonized.

Haha, listen to Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite. It makes you feel like you’re, like, high or something.

~~~~~~~
You know, the other day when I was goofing around and playing a few tunes I realized that I was doing these cool little triplets in “Harvest Home” and they came out clear, crisp and separate, in short, how they’re supposed to sound.
I was quite amazed at myself, and promptly messed up the next three measures. But I did realize how far I’ve come in my playing in a few years.

And I put the Nightmare Before Christmas soundtrack on my iPod. I find myself to have practically memorized it, having seen the movie so many times.. Huh..

At the Disco. And they said now they just didn’t want it on their new album cover and they don’t care how anyone writes it.
I watched the Three Days Grace DVD. It was pretty awesome. Hooray, Adam sounds good singing here!

I like both Panic! and Panic. Panic is very cool; when the day met the night is such a cool song, but Panic! is way cool as well.Beavo, if you say a WORD about Paramore, I will skin you alive. Hayley Williams is my idol, my rock role model. She and Sarra Manning’s book Guitar Girl were the reason I started guitar lessons and played literally until my fingers bled. That is DEVOTION.

Midnight Fiddler (she of 2 spzdk, 500 PiePoints and 30 Muszey points)
in August 23rd, 2008 @ 17:33309~ The one I hated was by the US Navy band, and it’s called “Songs of Sailor and Sea.” Don’t get it unless you want to listen shanties that have been ruined and turned into pretty choral music. Not that there’s anything wrong with pretty choral music, I like it as well as anyone else, but sea shanties are work songs, some of them have nice melodies, it’s true, but they aren’t exactly meant to be pretty.
I’d recommend the Smithsonian Folkways recording called “Classic Maritime Music”, it’s quite good and has all sorts of interpretations of chanties-some prettified, some not, and a nice range of material.
Also, the HMS Falcon’s Press Gang has a CD, “A Night out on the Shore”, which I’d recommend as well, if it’s available on Amazon.

in August 23rd, 2008 @ 18:04(317) Singers do sing songs about characters other than themselves, and the characters aren’t always attractive ones. Many songs written from the point of view of rogues, low-lifes, even murderers are great fun to sing. (I’m sure Midnight Fiddler knows a few.)

in August 23rd, 2008 @ 18:15I’ve been obsessed with The Kinks almost as long as I’ve been obsessed with The Beatles. But right now, I just seem to like Waterloo Sunset so much, I’ve heard it before, I liked it too. But all of a sudden, I just wanted to keep hearing it and hearing it! It’s an awesome song. I like it when Damon Albarn and Ray Davies sing it.
317- What about “Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds”, or “I am The Walrus”? They’re prolly something like that.And than there’s also “Saddam On the Phone” XD

really though, jimmy buffett just happens to be a little more blunt. which makes sense, he’s supposed to be a sailor-type guy.
i’m guessing you haven’t heard love song by him?
i went to a concert last night. it was a party.
there was a jonas brothers concert the same night, and devin said he actually saw them drive by on their way back from it. he’s evidently not a very good sniper, because they’re still alive.

in August 24th, 2008 @ 07:27oh (sorry double post) almost forgot, we had our first football game last friday. we sounded ok, looked decent…dan ended up walking into five different boxes during the box drills because he wasn’t here for most of band camp
it was a stevie wonder show, the songs were stuck in our heads for hours
afterwards, andy had his car at the school but left his keys at his house (no idea how that happened) and dan’s car was at andy’s, and there was no way we could all fit into courtney’s car, so we got our band director to give us a ride back to andy’s in his truck and then dan drove us back to andy’s car so we could all go to cup o joe. yes it was complicated. but j let us sit in the back of his pickup which was sweet. actually when i say “let us” i mean more “he didn’t yell at us for doing it”. andy actually sat in the front like a good boy, but the three seats in the back were empty

Midnight Fiddler is in a Wisconsin library!
in August 27th, 2008 @ 12:03319~ *innocent face* I’m amazed at you!
Well, yes, I do…….
I have been singing “Blow the Man Down” “A-Roving” “The Handsome Cabin Boy” and……………..others since long before I knew what they really meant………..not in public, though (much), don’t worry!
I still enjoy the last verse of “Darby Ram”, and “A-roving” is still one of my top favorites. I don’t usually sing those in the company of small children or people who don’t know me very well.
And as far as singing about getting drunk, trust me, there are MANY, MANY songs like that…..”Fathom the Bowl” (another one that I raised my young voice in long before I understood it), and many, many, many others that I won’t even bother thinking up the names of. Yes, they’re out there.

I’m listening to “Defying Gravety” on our 10 year old CD player.
Ooooo, it’s at my favorite part!!!!! Now it’s sad.
No, wait, this is my favorite part. Kristen Chenozworth (probably spelled wrong, Glinda) and Idina Menzel (Elphaba) Sing such great harmony. Now it’s over. I remeber when I saw the play. That song was so insparational, especially because I love to act. (I would have posted this on the Broadway Musicals thread, but it’s dead.)

Well, actually, it’s a musical about the Wicked Witch of the West (from the Wizard of Oz, obviously) and how she became wicked. Basically the background history of the Witch. It’s based on the book Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West by Gregory Maguire. I went and saw it on Broadway in April. I’m listening to the soundtrack again right now.

I like KT Tunstall, not my favoirtie ‘band’ ever (only have one cd wait… 2 actually, one’s live and has repeats though) but she’s not pop-ish or annoying and can actually sing so she’s high up on my respected list. I saw this awesome tap routine to Black Horse and a Cherry Tree…
Of the songs I have I really like Little Favours, BHaaCT of course, Suddenly I See, Funnyman… actually I like her more than I remembered, I’ve been typing each song that comes on, prety much XD So cd wise Drastic Fantastic is pretty good.

in August 31st, 2008 @ 17:23345- I don’t exactly blow up stuff, well, maybe I do blow up people’s ears.
I actually play Clair de Lune as loud as I can on the piano, and than turn up “The Sound of Music” in the basement as loud as it will go. And after that I blow up stuff. Maybe I can record it for you guys sometime so you can hear how loud it actually it is. You have no idea, Edelweiss and Clair de Lune blasting at the same time is actually pretty relaxing, and blowing up food in the microwave is extremely fun to go with it Though I don’t recommend it, I got electrified slightly one time. Even though, that’s the only time I can get the song completely correct, and the only time I blow up food in the micro-wave on purpose.
