Ah! :D Thanks, both of you! I'll go listen to all of them!
And because I mentioned him before, here's a cool Amr Mostafa song. Buuut let me know if my link posting gets obnoxious, and I'll quit it. XD |
Nevaaar. I love getting linked to new music.
So, I'm officially in love with this swedish group Diablo Swing Orchestra. They have a song called "Balrog Boogie". (I may be the queen of the nerds.) Also, any band that can completely naturally mix swing, opera, and metal into one song wins at life. |
Balrog AND Swing orchestra?! I have got to check this out. I'm an avid swing junkie. And I love LOTR. >> And opera.... /nerd too
|
Hurrah, fellow nerd. ^_^ Clickie for the lastFM page.
|
AHHH. I really love it! :D It sounds like a combination of The Brian Setzer orchestra, Oingo Boingo, and Nightwish.

This is why I love LastFM. It gives me awesome stuff like that every once in a while. Worth sifting through the stuff I don't like for.
|
I used to listen to music there a few years ago, and now I can't remember why I stopped. XD It's really convenient.
|
It can be kind of a pain when they don't have what I want to listen to, but the rest of the time it's great. I'd say about 90% of the time I listen to music, it's there or on Pandora. Less on Pandora, though, they have commercials.
|
Haha I guess I am kind of stuck in my ways and like to listen to my already-owned library instead of risking stuff I don't want :rofl:
|
Lately I haven't been getting much new music. I'm digging up old music that I used to love and forgot about. XD I just finished my Billy Joel craze, so now I need to find something else. XD
|
Aw, Billy Joel. ^_^
That's not necessarily a bad thing, poet. If you enjoy it, why not listen to it? |
@poet- Yeah, a ton of the music I have is my old nostalgic stuff. XD Like the Cats Don't Dance soundtrack >> /nerd
|
Haha, I have some Billy Joel in my library; not from my own purchases but I do like a number of his songs.
It is kind of funny/amusing, though, when people get Billie Joe of Green Day confused with the Piano Man. xP. And no, it isn't a bad thing, especially when you have ~5k songs (many again not from my own purchases but a part of my tastes all the same), but I like getting into new stuff from time to time too. And I love soundtracks! |
Ahahaha. I just tried to picture Billie Joe doing a cover of Piano Man, and I think my brain broke. I just can't picture him playing the harmonica.
|
Wow, I didn't know the Green Day singer had such a similar name! XD I don't listen to them much. But yeaaah, I can't picture any Billy Joel songs in their style. Maaaaaybe "Pressure." Maybe.
|
Still a bit of a stretch, but I could see it. Much more likely than anything with harmonica or banjo in it, anyways.
|
Ffff, a harmonica and Green Day. You know what though, they could probably do Still Rock and Roll to Me.
|
I dunno if they would be okay with welcoming people back to the age of jive.
|
XDDD I don't think they could pull of pink sidewinders and bright orange pairs of pants either.
|
Billie Joe actually plays harmonica in one of their songs, and it is a concert favorite. It is called "Minority" and there is a harmonica solo.
---------- And I dunno, I mean, you guys haven't seen the Foxboro Hot Tubs (Green Day side band - 60s garage throwback with the clothing to match) |
Really? Wow, I learned something new! The more you know... :D
XDDD Wooow, 60s rock clothes. Can't be as bad as glam rock, can it? |
Hm....Let's see....My current favorite bands would have to be: Disturbed Korn Flaw Mudvayne Slipknot the GazettE Miyavi Evans Blue Lacuna Coil Within Tempation Evanescence Dope And so many more that I can't think of right now. |
No, definitely not glam rock. And it is all clothing that I am pretty sure they already owned, it is just the combinations that are a little more ostentatious. At a recent Hot Tubs show, for instance, The Reverend (Billie Joe's alter ego) had red jeans on.
|
@Yumeko- The only of those I've really heard before are Disturbed and Within Temptation (a teeeny little bit). But I'm guessing you like metal?
@Poet- I don't think red jeans are that ostentatious, but it definitely requires showmanship to pull that off. XD |
