@Sakura: total sex sells proposition for that video. Reasonable song otherwise.

@Miller agreed. The song can stick in your head for a long time if you don't realize it. Btw here's a new song I'm currently listening from iHeart Radio :)

Usually when somebody shows a song of one of my favorite bands, I always try to link them a song to one of their lesser known songs that is just as good/better than thier most popular song.


Sakura:


Granted that one is still on their greatest hits album, but seriously when most people think better than ezra, all they can think of is Good, and its a shame, they catalog A LOT of really good songs.


Heres what im actually listening to lately:


Deftones has been growing on me lately.


Also Blackmill:
Pretty nice music to just relax to. This is a new genre for me I suppose, so if anyone has any suggestions for more like it, that'd be swell.


***edit* how the f do I get the youtube videos to show up like sakura's? I copied what she put and just put my url in and it doesn't do shit.

Sin that Blackmill song sounds like one of my favorite bands, Marsmobil.




Most of their songs are trippy and mysterious like this one. But they also have a Beatle-esque quality to them on other songs. I love this band.

Exactly what im looking for, thanks beck


Also, I found out why I cant do the youtube links. Its a new button, but the button is completely invisible for me? Is that normal?

That's weird.

Can you see this:



Maybe it's a cache thing.....weird though.

You have to select the Youtube button and copy the what is told to do :)

I appreciate that you say this, because my favorite all-time band is Pink Floyd. I have been listening to them for almost 20 years (god I'm old), and they haven't released a new song since 1994. Prior to that, you have to go back to 1967 for their debut album. A band with that much history, with 15 full length studio album has so many great and brilliant songs beyond the four you hear on classic rock radio over and over. When you say Pink Floyd to people who don't know their music, they always think "Another Brick in the Wall Part 2", or "Money" or "Comfortably Numb". All fine songs, don't get me wrong, but its really unfair to judge a band by the songs that radio stations consider "popular" while ignoring their other 250+ songs. Right? I have to admit I fall prey to this with the Rolling Stones. I'm honestly not a fan, I know that is blasphemy for a classic rock guy like me, but of the 10 songs I hear constantly I just don't really feel it. But I'm sure if I dug deep into their albums I'd probably appreciate them more. I would say the same thing about the Beatles. Until I actually started listening to them, buying their albums (and I'm talking about all their albums in the late 60's when they were all drugged out), those are WONDERFUL albums with a lot of great songs beyond the "Twist and Shout" and "I Wanna Hold Your Hand" that was my perception of the Beatles "sound" before I knew better.

All from The Bends

The Bends is a great album.

I tried to listen to the whole Pink Floyd discography,but it takes a special person to be able to listen to most of their tunes. To me, I like them from Meddle up to The Wall. I have even tried to sit down and watch them live from Pompeii,but they lost me 20 minutes into it. Not knocking it,just not my thing entirely.

Well, I wouldn't say "most" of their tunes. There are certainly a handful of songs that I don't even listen to and are absolutely terrible. Even they would admit that (and have) at this point. Yes, probably Meddle on is more accessible to people and more of the sound they would know. But I like all their albums, but to each their own I guess :)

Any love for Portishead?

I was so into the sound of their first 2 albums that it took me a really long time to get into the 3rd one and there are now rumors that the next one could be coming next year...

There is now. I'm gonna have to check them out. That's right up my alley. Trippy, mellow and dark! :thumb Plus I love the female vocals, I can totally falsetto that shit in the shower :lol:
