  2. I love music. All music (except for country), as long as it’s well done. Just about all music has an incredible beauty to it. Unfortunately, I have zero musical talent. Quite devestating.

  3. Axa listens frequently/more often than not to the following singer/bands:
    Asian Kung Fu Generation
    No Regret Life
    Utada Hikaru
    Fiona Apple
    Keane
    Enya
    T.M. Revolution
    Ayumi Hamasaki
    Coldplay

    Yup that’s about it. I like the occaisonal Dylan or Beatles song too, but the above mentioned are what I listen to most.

    In summary: Japanese and alternative-ish.

  7. *___________________________________*

    I am INSANELY happy right now. I managed to get my greasy mits on 5 new Ajikan songs. Five. omg. I’m spazzing.

    Although no one’s wondering they are:
    Gekkou ( Moonlight)
    Angou no Waltz ( Translates to something like Waltz’s code, or coded waltz…something like that )
    Eien ni ( Eternity/Eternity is )
    Uso to Wonderland (Lies and Wonderland)
    World Apart

    Kensuke siiingggggssss Uso to Wonderlan I’m so happy. ^^

    I can listen to any type of music. I like country, which suprises many people, but really, the older stuff.

    Rap is eh. Too much beat, but sometimes the lyrics can be very interesting, if only you’re willing to listen.

    I’ve been meaning to pick up Post[an album] by Bjork…does anyone have it, and is it good?

    Dream On, by Aerosmith is a very good song, as are:
    War, by Edwin Starr
    Beer for My Horses, by Toby Keith [the funniest song ever]
    The Clincher, by Chevelle
    Breathe Today, by Flyleaf
    Chop Suey, by SOAD [but most of their songs sound exactly the same]
    Rubber Biscuit, by The Blues Brothers [prepare to be scared beyond all belief]
    Remedy, by Seether
    Tomorrow Never Knows, by the Beatles
    Another Brick in the Wall, by Pink Floyd
    Lithium, by Nivarna

    Run, run, run but you sure can’t hide. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.
    Vote for me and I’ll set you free. Rap on, brother, rap on.
    Dennis: Well, the only person talking about love thy brother is the…(preacher.)
    And it seems nobody’s interested in learning but the…(teacher.)
    Segregation, determination, demonstration, integration, Aggravation, humiliation, obligation to our nation.
    Ball of confusion. Oh yeah, that’s what the world is today. Woo, hey, hey.
    Paul:
    The sale of pills are at an all time high.
    Young folks walking round with their heads in the sky.
    The cities ablaze in the summer time.
    And oh, the beat goes on.
    Dennis:
    Evolution, revolution, gun control, sound of soul.
    Shooting rockets to the moon, kids growing up too soon.
    Politicians say more taxes will solve everything.
    Melvin:
    And the band played on.
    So, round and around and around we go.
    Where the world’s headed, nobody knows.
    [Instrumental]
    Oh, great googalooga, can’t you hear me talking to you.
    Just a ball of confusion.
    Oh yeah, that’s what the world is today.
    Woo, hey, hey.
    Eddie:
    Fear in the air, tension everywhere.
    Unemployment rising fast, the Beatles new record’s a gas.
    Dennis:
    And the only safe place to live is on an Indian reservation.
    Melvin:
    And the band played on.
    Eve of destruction, tax deduction, city inspectors, bill collectors,
    Mod clothes in demand, population out of hand, suicide, too many bills,
    Hippies moving to the hills. People all over the world are shouting, ‘End the war.’
    Melvin:
    And the band played on.
    [Instrumental]
    Great googalooga, can’t you hear me talking to you.
    Sayin’… ball of confusion.
    That’s what the world is today, hey, hey.

  59. I play violin but I only know a few Suzuki things, some things I figured out from LotR, and Twinkle Twinkle. I was crazy violin playing old gypsy man in my school’s play. (I’m a girl by the way) I had huge eyebrows and a mustache that I had to put on with spirit gum.

    I like Franz Ferdinand, Musicals: Wicked; Fiddler on the Roof; Les Miserables, Led Zepplin, the Beatles, Simon and Garfunkle, Maná, Juanes, Nena, Matisyahu, and lots of other random things.

  61. 67–Slow minor things? Well, that’s the Schindler’s List for you. But the other two are pretty/very fast.

    68–True, there is something called a bow. Well done!(I know you were kind of teasing me, but, well, whatever.

    70–I love African drumming and dancing! I wish I could learn it. When we went to South Africa, we saw tons of different kinds of dancing, and a bit of drumming. It was amazing!

    71–That’s so cool! I love all of those Paganini caprices (Is that capitalized?)–They’re so…….cool?
    Also, good for you for not practicing orchestra stuff. I never practice my llittle school ensemble stuff, and I’m always fine. I’m about to try out for an orchestra thingy(my friend’s already in it, and she’s the youngest violin 1, and since I like to think I am better than her (exept for the fact that her sightreading is a tad bit better than mine), I think I will get in, at least second violin, also. Just as a little fun fact.

    75–I sound out a bunch of things on my violin from Water Music (I have half of the music memorized from listening to the ‘soundtrack’ way too many times) , and it’s really fun!

  85. I play the clarinet, the piano, the sax, and the flute……..I might just qualify as a band geek. Almost.

    My favorite band is Rush. They’re a Canadian rock band from, like, the 80’s (or somewhere around there) and they’re REALLY good. None of my friends can understand Geddy, but I’ve listened to him so long I always know what he’s saying.

    And I like soundtracks.

  86. In a nutshell, music is my life. But this is not for nutshells (or even pie shells, unless nobody appears to share my taste).

    LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE CLASSIC ROCK!! Favourite bands include:

    The Beatles – Hoorah for mindless, happy love songs and deep balleds and products of pot and LSD!

    Queen – Freddie Mercury is quite possibly one of the greatest vocalists ever to set foot on this Earth….Extravegent? Yes. Charismatic? No doubt. Rockin’? Check out “Tie Your Mother Down” and “Hammer To Fall”. Varying? Is it possible to include any MORE genres in their music?!

    Led Zeppelin – The pavement for future hard-rock bands. Master guitarist, Jimmy Page. His solos are grand and eccentric.

    The Who – Revoltuionary. Youthfull. Proud. Destructive (hehe). Spirited. Strong. Wild. Pete Townshend turned rythm guitar into an art form with his expertise.

    The Rolling Stones – Hard, rebellious, in constant competition with The Beatles is to who was (is) the greatest British rock band of the century. Though the tougne logo would be more fitting if they all didn’t look like corpses.

    Lynryd Synryd – What Southern rock was meant to be. Although I personally don’t enjoy most Southern rock, this stuff is good.

    The Doors – The lyrics are POETRY for God’s sake!! Jim Morrison was a bit of word-smith. Also rather eccentric, in a blues/rock kind of way, adding feelings to his words.

    Creedance Clearwater Revival – Again, some Southern rock I’m actyually fond of. A touch of rebellious politics here and there (Fortunate Son”) and the spirit of youth.

    Aerosmith – Rockin’ music, with feeling and hard lyrics.

    Pink Floyd – Absolutely ASTOUNDING in their experimentle music and jam- style. The lyrics are brilliant, very meaningfull. (Currently listening to The Wall!)

    U2 – Their lyrics are amazing, again, like poetry and deepa d heartfelt. They’re very creative and imaginative.

    The Kinks – Very fun songs, come more than others. Ray Davies writes splendid lyrics, all open to interpretation.

    Bob Dylan – (Let us set aside his nasally voice, shall we?) He expresses himself in somewhat of an enigmaitc way, mysterious and slow in an attractive way.

    Jimi Hendrix – Again, beautiful lyrically. And I don’t know if I even have to mention this (but if I don’t people will think I’m ‘just that special’ as my friend Ben would put it), but the GUITAR KICKS BUTT!! DEFINITY the guitar God of all!! LOVE the psychedellic style!

    Wings – Playful love songs, fun and creative. Favourite song would have to be “Band On the Run”.

    Heart – Nothing particularly special about them (aside fromm their voice!), but isn’t it nice to have some FEMALE rockers for once?

    Grateful Dead – Most rockin’, JAM band. A live show would have to be quite the experience. For instance, Jerry Garcia’s endless guitar solos would be a treat.

    George Harrison – Very pretty, soft and smile-lifting from “The Quiet Beatle”.

    John Lennon – Experimentle, creative, with a message. Some heartfelt, some angry. Any way, he speaks his mind and takes things to the limit and possibly beyond.

    Paul McCartney – Very creative, lovely, all the same. Anyone who claims to be a fan of Macca and hasn’t heard Chaos and Creation In the Backyard needs to seriously re-think their life.

    Deep Purple – Another jam band of sorts I’m fond of. Very hard, very rock and very creative.

    The Eagles – I grew up with folk but cannot live without rock, which s probably why I enjoy these guys so much. The heavy acoustic is simply very appealing for when you feel like listeing to something like that (I am completely running out of how to compliment these guys properly!).

    Chuck Berry – One of the most revolutionary rockers of the ’50s, inspiring aspiring rockers such as The Beatles and many others.

    Frank Zappa – Downright weird, but all the same, pretty awesome.

    I also like some KISS, Alice Cooper, Green Day and The Clash, but not enough to write a thoughtfull blurb about them.

    And Spinal Tap is so splendid in the way their poke fun at ceratin rocker people I love (Queen, Led Zeppelin, The Who)!

    Other people I love:

    Ani DiFranco – Guitar is simply amazing, lyrics are poetry. Very strong, gets what goes on in her mind to the ptherend of the globe.

    Werird Al Yankovic – HILARIOUS parodies, so funny. And the songs he writes are pretty amusing, too. And accordians are so much more *ahem* ATTRACTIVE, wouldn’t you agree?

    Josh Groban – Has an amazing voice, simply put. The way he diverges from all this modern trash and sings to an audience who loves him, not one who shuns and riducules him and tells him to change. “You Raise Me Up”…

    So there you go. All of my fav bands and singers. I’m also getting into Free and Pete Townshend’s solo stuff.

    Oh yeah. I play ELECTRIC guitar (*grins sheepishly*) – or at least I try. I’m trying lead, though I think rythm’s more realistic. And I’m SO happy because I was 3rd chair in the French horn’s all last year!! I figure that’s the highest I’m gonna get, though I might take a stab at 2nd. 3rd chair is a very competitive placement, mind you. Everyone envied me last year, but I always won the desired spot. And I wasn’t too mature to gloat….And since I’llt ry getting into a band, I might try my hand at drums and bass and piano.

    And right now I’m listening to the German version of The Beatles’ “She Loves You” – “Sie Leibt Dich” on Past Masters Volume One. Ooh! It just changed to “Misty Mountain Hop” by Led Zeppelin on Led Zeppelin IV!!

    Well that was splendid, wasn’t it now, luvs?

  89. I would suggest a thread on Erik Karol.
    (the French pop singer)

    He’s to die for.

    His voice is the kind of voice that any sane person would rip out of his throat, dress in a really fancy tux, walk down the isle with, smooch, and then live happily ever after with.

    He’s good looking as well, but his voice makes the angles sound pathetic.

    If there was ever a singer who deserved their own thread, it would be Erik Karol.

    You can hear Karol in:

    The DVD and soundtrack versions of

    Cirque Du Soleil’s – Dralion.

    The show is good, but it’s Karol’s singing, that runs the show.

    PS for DVD purchasers: Karol is the one with long black hair.

    If any of you have heard Karol, or decide to purchase one of his albums (you can find the titles on Erik Karol’s website-google it) please tell me about it.

    I l-o-v-e that man.
