Hey ! What happened to that other thread we all loved so much ?! 8) Oh well. The Raconteurs - Salute Your Solution is one that's stuck in my head.

Looks like the music thread got zapped, somebody got tired of our iphone/ipod spammer dropping in? :(

Damn. And it was so close reaching 200 posts.

Why axe a whole thread because of one spammer, there was some quality stuff in that thread. Anyway what happened to the Cat, hope it is alright :-).

Cat's fine, only under a temporary Knytt Stories spell :)

I just remembered ! I first learned how to link on that forum ! Ahh...how silly I was trying to copy url's by hand. XD But anyway, since it was axed, I'll repost the last song that was on it: Datarock - Computer Camp Love .

Well, since it's dead, I'll repost some of my favorites from it.

Silversun Pickups - Lazy Eye

Bat For Lashes - Whats a Girl To Do

Cold War Kids - Hospital Beds

Radiohead - Jigsaw Falling Into Place (thumbs down version)

Radiohead - Bodysnatchers (thumbs down version)

This is a song that I heard on the radio and I loved it due to the wacky humor in it Flight Of The Conchords - Robots.

Just a bit of trivia back in the 60's the first music videos started appearing in video jukeboxes called Scopitones and here are some of the videos from it.

Man, this is beautiful.

Windows makes music !

Susan Tedeschi/Derek Trucks - this lady can sing the blues!

Ting Tings - Great DJ . This song is the most catchy thing I've heard in a while.

Warcraft II had some of my favorite music of the series. HOMM2 is also a classic fantasy strategy soundtrack.

Wizard Theme Knight Theme

The Remains! Great 60's garage from Boston.

Then of course there's Johnny Hodges and the Duke..

Also, my favorite racing game soundtrack.

Fall Down by Echostream.

The Black Keys - Strange Times .

The Ting Tings - That's Not My Name .

I'll bet you my PS2 that this Earth doesn't know a man who hasn't got this song stuck in his head after completing Katamari Damacy.

Ahh....!!!! I had just finally gotten that song out of my head, now it's back again!

Black Sabbath - Am I Going Insane
Black Sabbath - Tomorrow's Dream
Komputer - Valentina (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XxJk0toZZMo)

Sambassadeur - Subtle Changes

Oh, and this one is equally good: That Town

White Stripes - 7 Nation Army

Cherry Poppin' Daddies

And here's Weird Al's parody of the above song

As usual, the youtube comments provide additional insights: "They're both good songs (since they're pretty much the same thing lol)"

Wow. I've been watching the Play! series of orchestral video game music concerts on YouTube, and there are some -amazing- medleys up there! First and foremost has to be Zelda--unlike Kondo's Mario score (which sounds awkward in orchestra), this is some great stuff. Especially the Dark World theme from LTTP!:

Zelda medley at Stockholm

Chrono Trigger (with some Cross tunes thrown in) is no slouch either!

Sigh... I'm feeling sentimental again.

Whole edit- NO WAIT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I finally found a song I've been looking for for years ! Yeah Yeah Yeahs - maps !!! This song has haunted me for years, but I couldn't find it anywhere. I didn't even know it's name until now ! This is THE song that introduced me to alternative !

You must listen to Charlie he's our saviour

Huh, I thought my last frantic post would have gotten more attention. 8)

It says that the video is not available in my country. But is this the song you mean? If it is the same song, then I'm glad to tell you that I'm enjoying it very much.

Same song, different video.

It's 92° here in New York, only going to get worse in the next couple of days - summer has arrived in temperature if not in name.

(OK, for you funny Centigraders thats 34°...I think. :))

I would go crazy if I ever saw 92° in any thermometer around here. I would expect metal melting. =P

Heh. Funny Fahrenheit people. ;-)

It's gotten about 91 here at least once. Summers are always hot in mountain areas for some reason.

So what's 92 degrees of Fahrenheit in Celsius? Hmm... it's 33 celsius. That's really hot. We've had a dry sunny 24 degree weather for a month now. More than a month. Ever since it stopped snowing in the late March, we've had nothing but hot weather. I accidentally dropped a match into the grass and it caught fire quite quickly. It was already big when I managed to distinguish it. 24 degrees of Celsius is 75 for you funny Fahrenheit people. It's usually a soft weather period in June. Soft sun with soft rain... something you can enjoy. Oh well, at least the white nights are here (only like 1-2 hours of darkness at nighttime, and even that is not exactly dark). Provides really awesome lighting when wandering around in nature at nights.

This album are really stuck in my head: Evans Blue - The Pursuit Begins When This Portrayal Of Life Ends

I hate being the one to explain the joke, but the thing is that 92° in Celsius is something insane, you'd expect watter boiling at some altitudes. The metal melting part was a hyperbole, the only metal melting at that temperature would be Phosphorous (at 44° Celsius).

As for the weather here, it's currently 25° Celsius (77° Funny). By this time of the year one would expect much lower temperatures (you know, winter down here starts on 21 of this month), but you know, global warming sucks.

To add to the confusion I have to ask "since when Phosphorous has become a metal?".

Since I'm dumb and missed chemistry classes. =P I was checking melting point tables in the internet and saw phosphorous among them. I thought it was weird, but anyway, it was the only in the table which would melt at 92° Celcius. The thing is that Phosphorous is used in alloys.

Besides, if it was a metal, it wouldn't be the only. We have metals lke mercury which are liquid at room temperature, for instance.

So I'm sorry, won't happen anymore.

As a fellow guitarman can I suspect you're thinking strings here? ;-)

Anyway, it's actually very weird for me to think of Phosphor as of alloy component. Given my chosen line of work (production of pig iron), the first thing I had to learn is to always keep levels of Sulfur and Phosporos at the minimum, since they are known for making iron and steel extremely brittle.

It's like a rule number one. Uhm... where were we?

I meant 91 degrees Farenhieght ! I suppose I should have made that clear ! XD

Does that sound more German than Fahrenheit or is it just me? :-)

Nah dude, everybody understood you meant Fahrenheit and Mom too. As I said, it was a joke... ah, forget it. =)

Well anyway, here's another song stuck in my head. Modest Mouse -Sleepwalking .

Behold the most awesome music video ever made.

Awesome.

Woah, Knorkator. The most awesome band in the world of course. Their live shows are just like that video, btw (I've been to three). And the lyrics fit as well.

To further confuse the issue, it was 97º F today (or 36º C) and the schools actually closed because of the heat, and have already announced an early closing for tomorrow! I find this a little excessive, but then, it's not me on the third floor of the high school with the big east-facing windows :P
Zovni, your video is indeed awesome, but not as awesome as this!

Haha! I stand corrected Mom!

Love Alice Cooper, we used to play School's Out in my band.

But when it comes to Alice Cooper and the Muppets, I'm more this one.

Awww!

Okay I'm currently most haunted by... the Estonian Pop Idol final. I'm sorry, but that girl was just too awesome. She also won. Yeah, in this case it's not exactly a song that haunts me but it's the singer.

Her performance of Alanis Morisette's Uninvited. Awesomeness redefined! Yeah, I'm on an emotional high right now.

Another song she sang I'm haunted by - Laula mu laulu helisev hääl..." Roughly translated it's "Sing my song my voice"

And my third or first favorite, depending on the mood. Ma tahan olla Öö (I want to be the Night).

And the fourth favorite - Strangers in the Night

Actually, most of the memorable (or my favorite) performances were by her.

The most notable is probably Lacuna Coil's Swamped.

I also liked Underneath your Clothes and Hello Fallen.

Wow. I'm going to be high for a while here.

So.... do all europeans like those reality/contest pop idol-things?

NO!

No. OTOH, do all South Americans like cock rock or industrial €-trash for clubbing?

Just an innocent question really.

and uhm... cock rock?

edutainment

Well gee Mr.! This Internet thing sure is complicated :P

Anyways, so that's what it is. I always called that hair metal and unfortunately I guess its about as popular here as in the rest of the civilized, post-80's world. Which is a shame, the world needs more bands like Metal Skool... Could do without the tights though.

I don't see what's wrong with Pop Idol. I can't honestly believe that someone would respond this dryly after watching all of that. I guess you didn't click on any of the links. At least check the Swamped song and comment on that. Don't automatically assume that everything I like is crap.

This band has been in my head for a while, but now it's taken over my brain !!! Los Campesinos - Death To Los Campesinos! .

Well I never assumed that, but to be honest around these parts those TV music shows and their stars are generally regarded with zero credibility and thought to be the worst example of mass-produced, commercial crap. No, I didn't click on all the links but most seem to confirm this: a pretty (ok, very pretty) chick singing covers and generally easy-listening stuff.

I will say that she does a very good impression (vocal-wise) of Cristina Scabbia on the swamped song, but again: Lacuna Coil is about as mainstream as you can go metal-wise these days.

So you only watched two songs :P. Whatever, for me she's an inspiration and a gift of God. It's in the show's nature for them to sing other songs, and I believe she will deliver in original songs too. And what's wrong with mainstream and easy-listening?

This reminds me that I'm doing a live performance tomorrow too. Not much, just a private event. In fact, if you'd compare what I'm doing tomorrow with Ted's Band from Scrubs you wouldn't be too far off. But that doesn't mean I'm supposed to deliver a crappy performance. And I hope to bring half of those emotions that Jana brought to me. I'm still nervous though since it's my first time before an audience.

Anyway, here's Ted's Band from Scrubs.

Oh boy. okay... forget anything I said and good luck I guess.

Definitely for me now it's Dixie Chicks and their album Taking The Long Way.

I had never heard of Kate Fenner until I read about her contribution to Mr. Clough's architectural project - it's pretty romantic that they fell in love during the house design!

Damn, it's been five days since the concert in Kyiv, yet I still can't get this song out of my head.



The Beatles - I've Got A Feeling

Bauhaus - Bela Lagosi's Dead

Happy St. John's Eve to everyone!

St. John's Eve is, as far as I know, not really well-known, outside of neo-pagan circles and Scandinavia (and places near it), in the rest of the world, but around here we have celebrated summer solstice ever since time began. Since the sun is up all night long (not really, but it's light outside in midnight) I'm going to do my fair share of fairy searching today. Or I'll be looking for the fern's blossom, haven't decided yet. Pretty much the same thing.

Anyway, at the lightest day in the year, every estonian is going to make bonfire's all night long. I don't know why though. Probably had some meaning long ago.

I was hoping to share some good midsummer eve song with everyone of you, but couldn't find any.

So Scarborough Fair has to do.

Still stuck in my head !

And I am having my birthday today too! So... Well, that's it. ;-)

Happy birthday !

Thanks! Birthday song was the first I started my day with! It's still very sweet of you, Kabushi! Thanks.

hello, i'm the spamz0r

Well, I'm gonna let spam get this song out of my head ! Black Kids-I'm Not Gonna Teach Your Boyfriend How To Dance With You .

Weezer's been on my head for quite some time now (just check my Last.fm profile), but I guess this song sums it up. Be sure to check the lyrics.

I was just humming a few DDR/Dancemania songs.

Yeah, I like those games, surprisingly.

I always have a Rock Band or GH song stuck in my head. Usually TTFAF by Dragonforce or Welcome Home by Coheed and Cambria.

COBRA STARSHIP - Guilty Pleasure

Pure Reason Revolution - Nimos & Tambos. Not sure how I managed to miss this band back in '06.

Quite cute Japanese cover German classic. Actually not that bad.

They might be cute but their dance moves just don't compare.

Why is it I get songs stuck in my head that I can't understand a word of ? YELLE "JE VEUX TE VOIR" .

The Weepies - Painting by Chagall

This one's been in my head for a while, but I couldn't find the name of the band untill now. Crystal Castles - Courtship Dating .

also known as the song Timbaland ripped off. I'm finally going to see them early August, they cancelled their Belgian show earlier this year. Alice Practice and Crimewave are some of my favourites.

You meant to say "one of the many songs timbaland's ripped off", right? ;)

He built his entire career on subtly (or not so subtly) stealing other people's songs and making them into urban hits for the masses.

A dishonest record producer !? I've never heard of such a thing sir ! 8)

Audiosurfs current band of the week might be interesting for all who like bands like The Shins: Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin - Think I Wanna Die.

Additionally, King Leonidas and our lovely friend Pedo Bear. But I guess I'm the only one who can't get the last two videos out of the head.

Beyond Good and Evil Soundtrack - Akuda House Propaganda

The whole soundtrack is wonderful. It can be downloaded here

Thirded. My personal favorite is Mammago's Garage.

Man these are stuck in my head !

PHANTOM PLANET: Do The Panic

Darker My Love - Two Ways Out .

This isn't really stuck in my head (yet), but it's so obscure I thought I should put a link up to it ! that dog. - Old timer .

Edit-Now stuck in my head !

Brilliant Eddie Floyd (rock) cover - Dead Snakes w/BBQ - Big Bird

That was a great cover of a timeless song. Thanks.

Kate Nash - Skeleton Song. Lovely song and lovely cockney accent.

Information Society's latest album: Apocrypha.

Two CDs. The first one is the band's original EPs, the second is a bunch of unreleased songs and live performances. Well worth the $25 I paid for the set.

I've recently discovered the Pixies. Veloria and Where Is My Mind ? have attached themselves to my brain as of late. 8)

A fan made video clip for an old Mr. Bungle song.

It's good.

I just love this song. And the video gets really good in the end, but I've always pictured something different for this song.

I think it fits like a glove. For me, the lyrics were implying something like this. And they even worked in the sound of the electrocardiogram perfectly :-)
