Song(s) that you can't stop playing

[RevolutionaryActs]

I'm obsessed with with a couple songs right now.

"Walking With A Ghost" - Tegan and Sara.
"Black Sky" - Sam Phillips. (thank you progmom! :D)
"Over The Rainbow" - Israel Kamakawio'ole.
"Golden Touch" - Razorlight.
"The World At Large" - Modest Mouse.



What your song(s) do you just love at the moment?


Edited for typo.

[JohnKleeb]

1. hmmmmmm that Lay Lady Lay by Dylan song and that shalalaha song

that Veronica sings to you. Am I weird if I like making up my own lyrics to songs, :shrug: I dont fall for guys so I change the lyrics in the songs to be about women, :shrug: She sure aint the girl I dreamed of but she sure is the girl I love :shrug:, I heard that song in Goodfellas btw.

[RevolutionaryActs]

3. That's ok... I pretend like I can actually sing.

:7

[JohnKleeb]

6. I cant sing especially right now with a lost voice

Sigh, hey it means I cant yell and I hate to yell. I am listening to Smoke Two Joints right now.

[Longgrain]

2. Changing of the Gaurds

By Bob Dylan...Don't know why, but I just can't stop listening to that one...

[RevolutionaryActs]

[RevolutionaryActs]

[New Earth]

4. i'm obsessed with a band right now

just can't stop listening to them, just found about them a little over a month ago. VNV Nation, the cool guys in my sig.

The songs by them that i listen to most right now are Honour and Genesis - i keep going through phases with a few songs. I guess I am just fully absorbing each of them, one by one.

i am so glad i found them.......it's like i've been waiting for them....or they've been waiting for me.....or something like that :loveya:

[RevolutionaryActs]

8. Oh they have them on Rhapsody..... I'm listening to 'Honour'

I feel like dropping some E and jumping around. Oh now he's singing..... they're pretty cool. :thumbsup:

[New Earth]

10. cool

well, don't drop some E, read the lyrics instead.

and then bow to them :D

i still think a lot of people on DU would love their lyrics, even if they didn't like the music. a lot of the songs are kind of about war, the future of humanity, etc....

[RevolutionaryActs]

11. Yeah I just looking at the lyrics, they are really kick ass!

I do bow down to them.

[New Earth]

12. ok now

next you have to listen to Kingdom, and read the lyrics :D

come on, i love doing this!!!! i feel the need to get everyone i know to at least give them a chance. i actually have some songs uploaded so i can convert people :D

here is Kingdom:

and here is Legion: http://home.comcast.net/~newgaia11/new/08_-_VNV_Nation_-_legion.mp3



and if you want to watch an anti-Bush/Anti-Iraq war flash video by Eric Blumrich, another version of Legion is in this video: http://www.bushflash.com/year.html



and make sure you read the lyrics to them too :D

[RevolutionaryActs]

16. Aye, aye ma'am! *salutes*

[New Earth]

54. hellllppppppp meeeeeeee

[benny05]

13. "Land of Confusion" by Genesis...n/t

[brentspeak]

15. Interesting video, with the "Spitting Image" puppets n/t

[RevolutionaryActs]

22. That video scares me.

:scared:

[nytemare]

31. I went to the "spitting image" studio in London

That was fun!

[ScreamingMeemie]

14. Hah! I've got that version of "Over the Rainbow" on right now...

set to play over and over...I love it! :hi:

[RevolutionaryActs]

23. That's the only way to listen to it! Over and over.

:7

[BelleCarolinaPeridot]

48. That is a very beautiful song .

The first time I heard it , I cried .

[twenty2strings]

17. "Carve that possum"...Gid tanner and his Skillet Lickers? N/T

[RevolutionaryActs]

24. Uh.... ok then...

:wow:

[stpalm]

19. Streetlight Manifesto!

An awesome band if you like ska/punk. THey aren't typical ska, there arent many upbeats but their horn section is AMAZING. Here is a free sample Mp3:

[RevolutionaryActs]

25. Whoa! I love them!

:7

[stpalm]

29. Awesome

saw them live here about a week ago. killer show.


Do you listen to Blue Meanies, Big D at all?
^^other ska bands I like




Another kickass band that everyone should listen to- Dillinger Four. Catchy pop-punk but not with whiny vocals and really intelligent and political lyrics.

[RevolutionaryActs]

36. I know the Dillinger Four, I like them.

I'll have to check out those other two. :D

[obxdreamer]

20. One More Day/The Funeral

Sung by Sinead O'Connor. It's from the soundtrack of the movie "Veronica Guerin". Haunting, lyrical, spiritual (in the best sense of the word). Gives me goosebumps.....

[RevolutionaryActs]

26. I'm not familiar with that song, but she has such a beautiful, haunting

voice. :)

[obxdreamer]

43. Actually it is two versions of the same song

One More Day is the English version, The Funeral is the Gaelic version. Both are stunning. There is also a song by a 10 year old boy which was recorded in a Dublin alley, believe it or not. The boy was a street musician, the producer of the movie had heard him a year earlier and never forgot him. He sang traditional Irish music. there is such raw power in his voice, hard to believe in a child so young. This is a child from the street, with the street wisdom.
I really believe that Sinead O'Connor does best with more traditional Irish music. I don't really care for her pop stuff, but I just love her traditional Irish music.

[Guaranteed]

21. That damned Dean remix that Depth posted!

http://www.depthaudio.com/music/HowardDeanMix.mp3

Can't stop listening to it!

[RevolutionaryActs]

28. That is sooooo cool!

Woohoo go DEAN! :yourock:

[Lady Effingbroke]

27. I can't stop listening to Steely Dan!

Listening to "Haitian Divorce" right now.

[RevolutionaryActs]

33. I will admit, I'm not very familiar with Steely Dan... but I'm playing tha

song now, and I like it very much. :D

[Lady Effingbroke]

40. They are a slow, insidious addiction!

Superb musicianship and lyrical literacy!

[RevolutionaryActs]

41. Yes much agreed.

[Lautremont]

30. Josephine Foster & The Supposed

"All The Leaves Are Gone"

Also some Arcade Fire and Mountain Goats songs.

[RevolutionaryActs]

35. I don't know who that is

:shrug:

[Lautremont]

42. Well I'm here to tell you it's good!

Here's a review:

http://www.foxydigitalis.com/foxyd/jfoster_leaves.html

The Arcade Fire are from Montreal, and I believe The Mountain Goats (who are really this one guy named John Darnielle) are from somewhere in the northwest: Portland, perhaps. Both are amazing.

[JimmyJazz]

32. "I feel like a woman" - Shania Twain....

:P

[RevolutionaryActs]

34. LMFAO!

:P

Hey, I did the dare last night, did you see it?

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=104&topic_id=3084421&mesg_id=3098212


I was really tempted to post it in reply to one of the deleted messages, but I decided against it for some reason. :shrug:

[JimmyJazz]

37. I see - but you also killed the thread - therefore, the dare is

moot - try again (and that really is a funny smilie)

[nytemare]

39. "Ever so Lonely" by Sheila Chandra

Very relaxing.

[Liz_Estrada]

44. Todd Rundgren's "Just One Victory" n/t

58. Awww that's too bad I liked the psychedelic swirls

but that's cool too!

[latteromden]

52. Somebody else on DU that's actually heard of Tegan and Sara?!

I'm impressed. I usually only find Tegan and Sara listeners in my little circles offline.

For me, it's Lause Ting by Odd Nordstoga. Norwegian music. Hm.

[RevolutionaryActs]

55. I like Tegan and Sara a lot.

:thumbsup:
