20. enjoyed that, bleak and beautiful...thanks for turning me on to them nt

[EastTennesseeDem]

29. I agree totally. But as bleak as it is, I have to believe that the song is, in an odd way, hopeful

The symphonic portion that comes along about 3 and a half minutes in and continues to the end just has a hopeful sound to it. I don't know.

But yeah, Hope of the States were great, but they are no more. Their guitarist hanged himself before that album was ever released. :cry:

24. L.A. legends, "Venice" "The Weight Has Been Lifted."

It's not really about Obama winning -- it's about cutie (singer) Kipp Lennon's reunion with the son he gave up for adoption over 20 years ago, but I was blasting this song after the election!

25. All Mighty Senators - one of the best funk bands around...

Can't find any good videos of their best stuff on youtube unfortunately. Best live show I've ever been to, with the possible exception of Purple Rain.

http://www.allmightysenators.com/

Also: St. Bushmill's Choir - Super fun Punk Irish/Folk stuff.

Everyone throwing beer on each other for 2 hours at their live shows was always EPIC.

http://windworld.com/features/gallery/hans-reichels-daxophone/

Gravikords, Whirlies and Pyrophones - Abridged versionBook by Bart Hopkin with an introduction by Tom Waits, with audio CD containing recordings by 19 featured artists.


For several years this collection has been unavailable except for used copies at high prices from resellers. Just recently the publisher recently located a couple of boxes that had been overlooked in a corner someplace. He sent them our way and we're making them available to you.
This collection takes the form of a 96-page, CD-sized hardbound book with audio CD bound in, featuring informative text, wonderful photographs, and great music of 19 of the most creative instrument makers from around the world.

got it, burned CD from my library

[darkstar3]

37. They're called Hazard to Ya Booty

and they're a funk band. Their myspace page is allright, but it doesn't have any of their best songs on it in my opinion.
http://www.myspace.com/hazardtoyabooty

If you ever find them, you'll love the songs All Black and Hyperbootylation.

[enigmatic]

38. "Cow"- Mike Sophia

Listen to the version on his myspace page before you watch the video; "Cow" is weird, a little creepy, and infectously wonderful, all wrapped up in cheap Casio keyboards and badly mixed Speak-And-Spell barnyard noises. I heard it several years ago through a friend's copy, and against all reason it's become one of my all-time favorite songs, even though I've hardly ever played it for anyone else, lest they think I've gone insane.

It's a love-it or hate-it song, so be prepared; either way, you won't be able to get the chorus out of your head, much to your chagrin.

This CD has been on permanent play in my car for weeks since a friend sent it to me. I absolutely adore it and can't wait to order the deluxe edition with DVD.:

62. I'm sorry, thd song is actually named "The Dancer." Video here:

I used to play that song (without the falsetto part, of course) because my God, it's a magnificent piece of songwriting.

Ginette was a dancer...

59. I Remember Stan by Lennie Niehaus

I Remember Stan by Lennie Niehaus. My favorite piece of music since 1982. Haunting, melancholy, melodic, poignant. Simply beautiful.

60. The first song I ever learned.

http://www.macaronisoup.com/Songs/May2008.htm

Little Duckie Duddle.

However, my lyrics were (very slightly different):

Little Duckie Duddle went wading in a puddle
Went wading a puddle quite small.
Said he it doesn't matter, how much I splish and splatter
I'm just a little duckie, after all - QUACK QUACK!

[Art_from_Ark]

65. My friend used to sing a very different version

All I can say is, his version contained a lot of variants of a word that rhymes with "duck".

[carpetbagger]

61. Alan Hovhaness

American composer 1911-2000. This is part of his 2nd symphony, "Mysterious Mountain". Most of his music was about mountains, space, other natural settings, or Armenian spirituality and heritage.

64. KASSAV - Zouk La Ce Sel Medicament Nou Ni

"Zouk is the only medicine we need."

Zouk is a style of music from the French Antilles that this band invented and dominate. Like Bob Marley is to reggae, the Beatles to rock, Kassav' is to zouk. They have many many great songs.
