What tunes are you listening to, and why?

Daft Punk: Around the World.

Why? Cos no song that is so damn repetative should be so very, very good. And it annoys the neighbours. And makes the floor shake.

Stevie Ray Vaughan

"Life by the drop"

I just love the song...And it's a "blues" day for me...

At this precise moment I'm blasting Manowar - Hail and Kill with the rest of The Kingdom of Steel in the playlist along with a splash of some awesome Folk/Viking metal from Finntroll and In Extremo! If you dig kick ass metal and dont wear crackjack clothes definately go to a Manowar show, it will melt your face!

Rhapsody play list is cranking....Jan Hammer with "Miami Vice" theme....cause why? I love the 80"s!

Miami Vice theme.
The first song I ever heard on CD!

Listening to Alison Krauss, with Union Station.

Well crafted Bluegrass music.
Her voice is angelic.

I'm listening to my Ibanez DTX120 (one of my guitars) gently weeping.

But what are you playing?
I just looked up the model..
Pretty nice loooking axe..

Yeah, man. It's not half bad, at all. It's got a fantastic sound to it, too. It sounds better than my B.C.Rich Warlock, anyway. I'm currently writing a new song for my album (which is coming out sometime at the end of this year ). It's a very melodic song, with a very heavy chorus.

Now I'm playing along to The Beatles. At the moment I'm playing along to "Day Tripper". Y'can't beat a good bit of Beatles now and then.

^ your avatar cracks me up

on topic
artist Helloween
album karaoke Remix (released 1998)

Song thats on while I'm typing this is First Time.
Reason: good instrumentals, catchy guitar solos, and catchy rhythm

Im listening to Ill Nino - Corazon of Mine... why? 'Cause I'm in the mood for metal.

EDIT:

Now its Ill Nino - Everything Beautiful

That song sucked so now I'm listening to

In Flames - Swim

...can anybody tell I'm bored?

First of all xeroxed88 has the absolute best avatar ever
Makes me laugh everytime I see it.

Today I've played Greed by Dream Theater which is from Octivarium
Just bought The first "The Darkness" CD. Mostly for the song "I beleive ina thing called love." Yeah its corny but it reminds me of a cross of Glam Rock and hair metal I LOVE IT

Also I've played Kite by U2 from their "All that you can't leave behind" album.
It makes me think of a love I miss so very much.:shk:

Foo Fighters

"TImes like these"

Dedicated to my best friend John, who died on his motorcycle..
3 years ago today..

spacedoubt: you actually inspred me to play that song.
Sorry about your friend.

He died, right before the CD came out, but was always a big
FOO fan...And the Lyrics were very fitting....
I talked his family into letting me play it at his memorial..

Playin slide in A along with Claptons' Reptile CD.

Because that's what my sweet thang wanted to listen to and it's her CD player.

Killswitch Engage - A Bid Farewell

I absolutely love how the drums and rhythm guitar "work" together. In my opinion, KSE are one of the best bands to emerge from the American metal scene in a long time. They're as tight as a duck's arse live, too.

Im glad you like it.

Absolutely amazing band.

Aye, its weird how music has the power to change your mood in an instant. Most of the songs that remind me of my ex-girlfriend are about revenge. But hey, there's a song on my upcoming album that was inspired by her lies. It's actually quite good. Very metal.

EDIT TO ADD:

Sorry to hear about your loss, spacedoubt. By "play it", do you mean you played it?

[edit on 27-1-2006 by xeroxed88]

No, I didn't play it personally..
Given enough time, I probably could have..
I'm a good singer, and CAN play the guitar..but have not done either for years.

I have a closet full of stringed instruments...
A Telecaster (copy)
An Ovation 12 String (Glen Campbell edition)
A regular old Fender F-150 6 stringer.
a Mandolin (can only play a little) and a Banjo, which I have only played 2 or 3 times..

I have to say that the non-smoking thing is really helping my voice though..
I may sing again!!!!


Oh, and as I mentioned to another member once..I can play the Digereedoo TOO!..LOL

2 songs I would like to learn are:

The accoustic version of That Foo Fighter song.
And a song by Jet, called "Come around again"
