what you need is someone strong to guide you.....


i had a friend once, he took some acid
now he thinks he? a fire engine
it's ok, until he pisses on your lighter
kinda smells kinda cool, kinda funny anyway...

i had this friend once
he took some ecstasy
tried to marry me and everyone in the room

Marilyn Manson/Nine Inch Nails: Down in the Park

[Division56]

Semisonic - Secret Smile

[Spartan26]

Vital Signs by Rush

[Dman]

Led Zeppelin - "Ten Years Gone"; or "The Rain Song"

[Johnny]

The Rain Song is a great song. I think Jimmy Page used an altered tuning for that song to get the chords to sound that way...nice touch.

[Claverhouse]

Actually, ( smug in the knowledge that no-one else will have heard it, or can ) my very favourite song of all time is: 'My Irish Molly'o' sung by Maura O'Connell with the Irish group De Danean back in the 80s before she moved to Nashville.


Claverhouse :ph34r: :D

[Johnny]

Amazon doesn't at least have a minute-soundclip to sample?

[Claverhouse]

I very much doubt it. I've only got an old LP & some cassettes. Doubt if she herself thinks highly of it by now. She split from De Danean a long time ago.

This is her Official Website, but I've never heard her American output, and I'm not sure I'd like it, but surely a great great voice.

[ the last photo down below is rather more flattering ]

[Utopmk]

A Perfect Circle - The Nurse Who Loved Me

[Melody]

Eminem - 8 Mile Road

[Spartan26]

Led Zeppelin - "Ten Years Gone"; or "The Rain Song"
Wow, I was thinking of those very two. But I'm not sure if "What is and What Should Never Be" may be their best all-around song. It always cracks me up when radio stations count down "the best songs of all time!!!", Stairway to Heaven is always near the very top, but I don't even know if it's one of Zep's top ten.

Certain Zeppelin songs carry such strong memories for me. I don't know why. I like them but I wouldn't consider them one of my favorites. Like What is and What Should Never be reminds me of driving across the border to drink and this band in Cheyenne that did an amazing rendition of the song. The Rain Song, a basement where we used to party my freshmen year in college. :cheers: I went out with this girl who loved In The Evening. She took me out for my 30th birthday, managed to open up this huge tab and the juke box, from which she did a nice dance for me when her song came on. :wub: :wub: :wub:

I had a Kirin with my dinner, can you tell? Holy cow, did I get a strong batch. Anyway, now that my inhibitions have been lowered (did I spell that right? We need spell check on this site. Well, I do) I would like to offer a timeless classic. A master piece of storytelling, unmatched laments, precise lyrics and structure, loved by generation after generation. I am of course referring to...

A Weekend in New England by master composer Barry Manilow.

OK, I'm not a huge fan of his by any means, but I do love that song.

[The Architect]

Track 4 from ( ) - Sigur Ros

I think it's track 4 anyways

[ohnoaninfp]

anything by linkin park, except for their remix cd. that kinda sucked

[spaced]

Track 4 from ( ) - Sigur Ros

I think it's track 4 anyways

I'm partial to track 6, but I really love every song on their last two albums. They also performed the single best concert I have ever seen in my life B)

[giftedmadness@hotmail.com]

speaking of Semisonic, I like One True Love by them.

[spaced]

Infected Mushroom - Symphonatic

[paladinoflunaria]

Blue Man Group, "Above"

[Vagabond]

Dark Tranquillity - The Mind's Eye

[Melody]

Fifth song in Wipeout soundtrack, Sega Saturn version. The whole soundtrack is very good techno. The Playstation version is also good.

[int]

Vaga that remind's me of a Golfinger song, also called "Mind's Eye" -

"I can see through my mind's eye
I make up scenarios in my head
I remeber the things I did
I know I fucked up and I wish I was dead."

[nobarcode]

"Lady With A Fan" (Lyrics: Robert Hunter)

Let my inspiration flow, in token rhyme suggesting rhythm
That will not forsake me, till my tale is told and done
While the fire lights aglow, strange shadows from the flames will grow
Till things we've never seen will seem familiar

Shadows of a sailor forming winds both foul and fair, all swarm
Down in Carlisle he loved a lady many years ago
Here beside him stands a man, a soldier by the looks of him,
Who came through many fights, but lost at love

While the story teller speaks, a door within the fire creaks,
Suddenly flies open, and a girl is standing there
Eyes alight, with glowing hair, all that fancy paints as fair
She takes her fan and throws it in the lion's den

Which of you to gain me, tell, will risk uncertain pains of hell?
I will not forgive you if you will not take the chance
The sailor gave at least a try; the soldier, being much too wise,
Strategy was his strength, and not disaster

The sailor, coming out again, the lady fairly leapt at him
That's how it stands today. You decide if he was wise
The story teller makes no choice, soon you will not hear his voice
His job is to shed light, and not to master

Since the end is never told we paid the teller off in gold
In hopes he will come back, but he cannot be bought or sold

[ohnoaninfp]

Almost anything by The DropKick Murphys, Exspecially Rocky Road to Dublin. :D

[Strephonade]

It's pretty difficult to name just one song or a few songs I like--and there are a lot of songs with no real "names" to speak of I like. I'll try to take a little less license with the question though, and say, oh, maybe some of the stuff that the Kronos Quartet has done.

[paladinoflunaria]

"Celtic Dream," Ronan Hardiman

[antireconciler]

"the world" from the .hack//SIGN OST 1

After I bought the soundtrack, this song was stuck in my head for almost a week.

[int]

Fugazi - "The Arguement"

The whole album is good.

[Vagabond]

Travis - Pipe Dreams

[Spartan26]

I hate to lose my street cred and mention pop bands but I remember hearing Def Leppard's High n' Dry before they blew up. I love the songs Bringing on the Heartbreak and Lady Strange from that album. I was just listening to it while I cleaned my kitchen. Boy, who needs drugs when you've got household chemicals in a confined space, huh?

[paladinoflunaria]

"Through the Kaleidoscope" - Steven Cravis

[paladinoflunaria]

"Pastorale" - Secret Garden

[Melody]

Yayoi Wachi - Lagi and Lundi (Panzer Dragoon Zwei theme, beautiful song)

[Spartan26]

Fell On Black Days - Soundgarden
Cigarettes - King's X
Written in the Stone - Earth, Wind & Fire
(I feel like such a grandpa)

[paladinoflunaria]

"Elegie" - Secret Garden

[Vagabond]

Nightfall - Blind Guardian... everything by Blind Guardian. :)

[HairlessBluetick]

Here's another one - I'm a Mindless Idiot by the Meat Puppets. In fact anything on that album (Meat Puppets II) is good, but that one in particular is great.

[spaced]

Right now I'm listening to:
James Holden - Nothing (93 Returning mix)

Man, I forgot how much I liked this song...

[logan]

Pavement - Box Elder

[MasterMerk]

Excellent to see some Tool fans here.

Heres one

Primus- Tommy the Cat

[Utopmk]

Cradle of Filth - Born in a Burial Gown

[Melody]

Aren't INTP's supposed to like a bunch of different music? That is true in my case.

[spaced]

Godspeed, You Black Emperor! - Moya

[Spartan26]

Aren't INTP's supposed to like a bunch of different music? That is true in my case.

Me, too! Back in the day, my friends would say I'm the only person who'd ever put Debbie Gibson and Public Enemy on the same mix tape. Not back to back but there's so much out there to bridge the gap.

Even today I listen to all types. Which sometimes I'd scan the radio dial and not find a decent song and I'd wonder what do the people do who only like a couple types or styles?

[paladinoflunaria]

"Belonging" - Secret Garden

I'm on a Secret Garden binge right now. Hoorah for Norwegians who compose depressing, celtic music!

I guess it's not really depressing, but rather melancholic.

[Utopmk]

Project Pitchfork - I Live Your Dream

[paladinoflunaria]

"Sunless Sea" - Mythos

[int]

"Wake Up" - Mad Season

This song came rushing into the brain after posting in the "Drugs" thread. :ph34r:

[HairlessBluetick]

ooh! Mad Season is good. Didn't know anyone else had heard of them :-p

[int]

Good! What else is stored away back there??? :)

[int]

Excellent to see some Tool fans here.

Heres one

Primus- Tommy the Cat


I've been working on learning the bassline to that song for 10 years now. If I ever get it, I win.

But speaking of Primus...'Les Claypool and the Holy Mackerel' and 'Sausage' are worth listening to.

The best Primus albums are 'Frizzle Fry' and 'Suck on This' imo though. :)

[Jezebel]

The best Primus albums are 'Frizzle Fry' and 'Suck on This' imo though. :)

I agree.

[int]

'Dillinger Escacpe Plan,' anyone?

Mike Patton of 'Faith No More' recorded an EP with them. Im not sure of the newest lineup and don't want to look it up right now.

Anyways, it's good "Mathcore." :)

[HackerX]

Nightfall - Blind Guardian... everything by Blind Guardian. :)

YESH!!!!

Listens to Blind Guardian - Majesty (live) :)

[Vagabond]

Hacker - do you also like Nightwish and Rhapsody? He he, this is weird :)

[HackerX]

While Nightwish and Rhapsody aren't exactly favourites... they certainly get listened too by myself :)

So just for you...
listens to Nightwish - She Is My Sin

[paladinoflunaria]

"Fairytale" - Secret Garden

[Melody]

Mala Rodriguez - "Yo Marco El Minuto"

This song was in the film "Lucia y el Sexo." I used to not care much about my Spanish-speakingness, but now I am happy because I am aware how smooth and sexy it can be.

[paladinoflunaria]

"Chosen Voices" - David Arkenstone

Goo Goo Dolls - "Truth Is A Whisper"



Truth Is A Whisper
(John Rzeznik)

Truth is a whisper and only a choice
Nobody hears above this noise
Always a risk when you try and believe
I know there's so much more than me

Yeah I got caught in the ruse of the world
It's just a promise no one ever keeps
And now it's changing while we sleep
And no one can see

Chorus:
You know all I am
Feel this moment in you
You know all I am
Can you teach me to believe in something

Sometimes you choke on the smell
Just to breathe
I need to question what I need
Rhythm of silence
That beats through your mind
Still you forget what you deny

Yeah I got caught in the ruse of the world
It's just a promise no one keeps
And now it's changing while we sleep
And no one can see

Chorus

Who's the one you answer to
Do you listen when he speaks
Or is everything for you
And do you find it hard to sleep
Or is it easy on your own
Will you ever find some peace
Before you're gone

Chorus


I like almost every single song from when the Goo Goo Dolls turned rock-style from punk, "Iris" was the first song I heard from them and "A Boy Named Goo" was the first CD I ever bought.

And if anyone is interested in Cuban music, Silvio Rodriguez is one of my favs as well.

I've been enjoying a number of mixes (Chillout 7 especially) by DJ Indigo.
They are free and legal mixes from the internet and can be downlaoded by going to http://www.indigo.sininen.piste.org/index2.htm and clicking on the "mixes" on the top bar....then scrolling down.

I'm not saying all of them are great, but I did like a number of them :D
(especially CHILLOUT 4 - DEEP GREEN, CHILLOUT 5 - ULTRAMARINE and CHILLOUT 3 - TURQUOISE)

[Merkaba]

Opeth - The Moor
Maudlin of the Well - Blight of River-Systems
Dissection - The Somberlain
Windir's whole Likferd album is amazing as well

Okay, some of your choices are waaay random, but who am I to judge... I am a perceiving type. Odd One's avatar and Nelly Fertado in the same post... HILARIOUS juxtaposition.

"Roundabout" Yes

"Tennessee Flat-top Box" Johnny Cash

"Tangerine" Led Zeppelin

"I Wanna Be Sedated" The Ramones

Ministry- Every Day is Halloween


(Everyday is) Halloween
well i live with snakes and lizards
and other things that go bump in the
night cos to me everyday is halloween
i have given up hiding and started to fight
i have started to fight well any time,
any place, anywhere that i go all the
people seem to stop and stare they say

'why are you dressed like it's halloween?
you look so absurd, you look so obscene'
o, why can't i live a life for me?
why should i take the abuse that's served?
why can't they see they're just like me it's
the same, it's the same in the whole wide world

well i let their teeny minds think that they're
dealing with someone who is over the brink and
i dress this way just to keep them at bay
cos halloween is everyday it's everyday o,

why can't i live a life for me?
why should i take the abuse that's served?
why can't they see they're just like me it's
the same, it's the same in the whole wide world
o, why can't i live a life for me? why should i
take the abuse that's served? why can't they see
they're just like me i'm not the one that's so
absurd why hide it?

why fight it? hurt feelings best to stop feeling
hurt from denials, reprisals it's the same it's the
same in the whole wide world

Tool seems like a band a lot of INTPs would like. Stinkfist is Tool's best song in my opinion.

For a song I have no doubt everyone has heard, Funeral March by Chopin. People might not have heard the name before, but it's not hard to figure out what song it is just from the name. I don't know if I really like listening to it all that much, but it's fun to play.

[Horger]

Phil Collins - In the Air Tonight
Led Zepplin - Kashmir, Immigrant Song, No Quarter (And tool's cover of it)
Radiohead - Paranoid Android, Everything in it's Right Place
Rush - Tom Sawyer

Danzig - Mother, Can't Speak
Snoop Dogg and Tupac - 2 of Americas Most Wanted
Tupac - Life Goes On, Hail Mary, Heaven for a G
Pearl Jam - Go, Elderly Woman Behind the Counter in a Small Town, Jeremy
NIN - Hurt, Eraser, Last, Ringfinger, Reptile

edit: I forgot Bowie. I have like 20 Bowie albums so I couldn't possibly name even a fraction of my favorite songs, but I'll give you this one... Shake It!

[Spartan26]

"Surrender" Cheap Trick

"Subdivisions" Rush


I had just stayed at my sister's house and in the two years since she and her husband have moved in a couple of complete new developments have gone in all around them. They all look the same. Beautiful homes but at the same time it's all depressing in their own way. I was thinking of this song a lot.

Amazing the forced conformity. "You paid how much for this house and someone's going to tell you what color it can be painted???" That's going to be my big April's Fool joke. Go into suburban real estate offices in developing communities and ask, "Can I see something in other than beige?"

Subdivisions is such a total intp song.


No where is the dreamer or the misfit more alone. Subdivisons Conform or be cast out.

This is sad to admit but I actually like that song "Breakaway" by Kelly Clarkson...no, no, keep reading. At first I was thinking it was because she reminds me of a friend, particularly some stuff in the video, because I never got into her before, but then the lyrical themes between Subdivisions and Breakaway are very similar. :nerd:

I actually saw Rush on the Signals tour. Amazing. Also, what a prophetic message for middle school and high school. Yikes. I also noted Surrender. Wasn't what's his name from Fast Times at Ridgemont High singing Surrender when he was scalping Cheap Trick tickets? Kind of a strange tie in since it's about this surburban high school life...

I shall have to throw that puppy on! :cheers:

[crule81]

Neil Peart (drummer from Rush, writes all lyrics) has to be INTP or J. "The Pass" and "Anthem" are two of his best lyrical compositions. I took a lot of flack in high school for being so into them in the age of grunge, but that just made me like them more.

They put on an excellent performance live. The only other live performance I've seen that could match them was The Who when Entwistle was still alive. (Can only dream about what it was to hear them live with Moon, just listen to "Live at Leeds.")

I'm more into albums than individual songs:

The Who - Quadrophenia

Placebo - Sleeping with Ghosts

Rush - Hemispheres

Zeppelin - Houses of the Holy

[giftedmadness@hotmail.com]

Okay, I do like Avril Lavigne. The best song on her new cd is "Nobody's Home". If you are depressed, play this song. You can play it all you want on her website for free. Great lyrics, great song. Okay, so I'm a wuss.

[Niflheimian]

"Belonging" - Secret Garden

I'm on a Secret Garden binge right now. Hoorah for Norwegians who compose depressing, celtic music!

I guess it's not really depressing, but rather melancholic.

I love Secret Garden. Belonging is from Once in a Red Moon, isn't it? I think their earlier albums are better, personally.

Are you familiar with their song Prayer ? It's quite lovely (but so are all the others, it's hard to choose favorites).

Speaking of Secret Garden binges...I was on one of those a few weeks ago. :cheers:

[Slider]

Xanadu for peart's solo . . . soo sweet.

[s]

Subdivisions:


"Growing up it all seems so one-sided
Opinions all provided
The future pre-decided
Detached and subdivided
In the mass production zone
Nowhere is the dreamer or the misfit so alone"
Thanks for noticing. I was being a wee cryptic and yes, it is an INTP song. We all like embarrassing music at times (some just more than others). *looking at Avril fans* ;)

Bonham, Pert, and Moon are/were all incredible musicians.

[Spartan26]

I'm more into albums than individual songs:

Rush - Hemispheres


You're the first person I've met who's said that was their favorite Rush album. A couple of years ago I met someone who's favorite was Caress of Steel. So surprising for me. I loved Exit Stage Left in high school. I'd put it on low to fall asleep to. La Villa Strangiato was such a great song to listen to falling in & out of consciousness. :zzz: :mellow: :) :mellow: :zzz:

2112, Permenant Waves, Moving Pictures and Signals are my favorites depending on mood. All of which were released before the advent of the CD. :o Someone gave me a tape of Signals for my birthday when I was in the 8th grade. Moving Pictures was my first CD I got, Christmas of '84 or '85. Won't be long before I'm humming Red Barchetta while being wheeled out to get some sun. :(


Xanadu for peart's solo . . . soo sweet.
Everybody talks about the solo from YYZ, but a guy I knew back in hs said Xanadu was the double black diamond run for drumming.

[Aryan]

Bob Dylan - "Blowing in the wind"

[s]

Signals is my favorite Rush album.

Crule81: Play "Trees" loud and proud! :D

Oh, yea... Spartan, I forgot to comment on "Surrender" by Cheap trick and "Fast Times at Ridgemont High." It was Mike Damone you were thinking of... that scene was hilarious! My fav Damone line:

"Got any iced tea?" B)

Guys, need tips for getting women? Here is Mike Damone's "five point plan":

http://www.netwalk.com/~truegger/ftrh/five-point.html

Currently on Rhapsody, I am playing Todd Snider's "My Generation." Here is an excerpt:


My generation, part two, book three, verse four,
Jackson Five, Nikki Sixx

My old man says the Woodstock generation
Found a way to make this nation
Open up its eyes and take a look around
And he says my generation
Ain't good for nothing
I could think of something
So I thought I'd jot it down

Here's to hair gel
Hanging out at the health spa
Using condom sense
Watching L.A. Law
Here's to drum machines
Stonewashed jeans
Credit cards, fax machines
Big bow-headed chicks and frat guys
Wearing forty dollar tie-dyed t-shirts
And big old paisley ties
Here's to living off dad as long as you can
And blending in with the crowd
Oh, my generation
My generation
My generation should be proud

We were raised up in the hallowed halls
Of half a million shopping malls
And there ain't any price that we're too proud to pay
We'll buy anything from Diet Sprite
To one thousand points of light
Hey, I admit we're not that bright
But I'm proud anyway

B)

[Niflheimian]

I'm listening to "Crucify" by Tori Amos right now.

I was just a few moments ago listening to the phenominal Cher by Cher.

[MySavior]

"The Wonderful Future"

She builds her own satellite
From an old rusted chair
She leaves this old world behind
And the things that she cares

Maybe she's gone
But it won't be for long
What do I know?
Maybe she's found
What we all dream about
What do I know?

She's beautiful and wonderful
I can't compare
It's not that fair

She builds a strong alibi
From the future that's here
She needs to know I'm alive
And that I'm flesh and I tear

Maybe she's wrong
But I won't mind my own
What do I know?
And their silicone
With a touch of her soul
What do I know?

She's beautiful and wonderful
I can't compare
It's not that fair

Crule81: Play "Trees" loud and proud!

My freshman year roommate hated that song so much. One night, to piss him off, I put "Trees" on repeat for 3 hours. I think he began to like it because he started yelling "hatchet, ax, and saw!" in a shrill voice all of the time.

Spartan: If you go by individual songs, "Exit" is the best album in my mind. "Xanadu" is amazing on it. I had to go to 5 Rush concerts before I finally heard "Xanadu" live this past summer. Unbelievable!

What is Rush without Peart?

Listen to their self-titled first album. Probably would have been their last or second to last if they hadn't replaced the old drummer with Peart.

[MacGuffin]

What about the voice of Geddy Lee
How did it get so high?
I wonder if he speaks like an ordinary guy?

"Stereo" Pavement

[Slider]

Everybody talks about the solo from YYZ, but a guy I knew back in hs said Xanadu was the double black diamond run for drumming.

yeah, I think it's the best solo. but my favorite rush song is 2112 overture . . . i've brainwashed my 13 yr old bro into classic rock, now rush is his favorite group, heh. he's esfp so we'll see how long that lasts . . .

Crule81: Play "Trees" loud and proud!

My freshman year roommate hated that song so much. One night, to piss him off, I put "Trees" on repeat for 3 hours. I think he began to like it because he started yelling "hatchet, ax, and saw!" in a shrill voice all of the time.

:rofl:

:cheers:

[Johnny]

What is Rush without Peart?

The answer to that question is obvious. B)

Any drummer who drops Terry Bozzio's name in an interview ensures my vote of confidence.


Currently on Rhapsody, I am playing Todd Snider's "My Generation."

Yeah, good singer. A-town offered fun music when I hung my sombrero there - Little Sister, Eric Johnson, Ed Hall, Poi Dog Pondering...

So we have a few Rushians on here and at least one Bonham fan. Maybe our concept of time isn't all that far off after all. B)


John Bonham, by the way, was the first musician (or any other practitioner for that matter) that helped me understand what "idol"/"hero" meant.

It was heavy. :D

Bonham was a demigod. His raw emotion and groove is unlike any other.

I like being a little behind the beat, myself.

[Utopmk]

John Bonham of Led Zeppelin, who choked on his own vomit?

You might as well put Jimmy Page on the list as well.

[nobarcode]

He's on there, despite his heroin problems. At his worst (fucked-up wise), he's still better than most.

But not as immediately influential as Bonham, ...to me.


... :D

[Utopmk]

I got to tag along with my parents, when they went to the Page/Plant reunion tour back in '94. My mom couldn't stop talking about how dried up they looked.

Personally, I love Led Zeppelin. B)

[nobarcode]

I saw them in 1977 at Arizona State University. I was 8yrs. old and had no idea what I was looking at, but I heard it, indeed. It made an impression. Few bands compare, but of course that's subjective.

My first concert experience was Elvis, that made no impression by comparison.

[crule81]

Robert Plant especially has not aged well. He does look like a white raisin. My 92 year old grandfather has aged much more gracefully.

The new Zeppelin live cd's are excellent. I always thought they were kind of disappointing live after listening to "Song Remains the Same" and various bootlegs I downloaded. But those new cd's have changed my opinion.

[nobarcode]

I agree, they are excellent. Perhaps not capturing the angst of "our" youth in an over-populated (maybe), over-stimulated (maybe) world, but still relevant and influential.

Check out the DVD's.

[Spartan26]

Spartan: If you go by individual songs, "Exit" is the best album in my mind. "Xanadu" is amazing on it. I had to go to 5 Rush concerts before I finally heard "Xanadu" live this past summer. Unbelievable!

Song for Song, I'd agree. Exit...Stage Left is the best. I was adhering to some unwritten rules of studio only, no live or compilation albums.

From what I remember about the Signals tour concert was that they played the first part of Xanadu, or a good chunk but I'm fairly certain it wasn't the whole thing and then, did they go into part of A Fairwell To Kings? (can't remember) and then blended into 2112 Overture and Temples of Syrinx and then worked their way into Red Barchetta. That was about 22 years and two weeks to the date, so forgive me if the order's out-o-whack. :o


I always thought they were kind of disappointing live after listening to "Song Remains the Same" and various bootlegs I downloaded. I saw somethng about Song Remains the Same. It talked about how messed up the band was, end of the tour, blah, blah, blah. I don't know, it really turned me off to them. I like more of their studio albums now but it was simply rancid.

Lot of live albums suck. I'm sure because half weren't really intended to be released just done under contractual obligation or before a band leaves/gets booted from a label. I got a live INXS cd that had a two week turnaround before making it back to the used cd bin. I've been meaning to, for years, years, rent or buy Def Leppard's In the Round, In your Face, whatever it's called concert video as I was at the bloody thing. I was able to pick me out for a split second in the Pour Some Sugar On Me video, but I'm not really recognizable in it.

[crule81]

It's funny how a drummer with one arm can be better than most with two!

[crule81]

Perhaps not capturing the angst of "our" youth in an over-populated (maybe), over-stimulated (maybe) world, but still relevant and influential.

What makes bands like Zeppelin great is their timelessness. I have little doubt that kids will continue to discover their music for several generations. Personally, I'm not concerned with their connection to modern "angst" because I don't really feel like I'm a part of it. I've always felt I belong in another decade or even century. Given their interest in the "Lord of the Rings," however, one could argue that Zeppelin is very adaptable to current interests and moods.

[Johnny]

I like being a little behind the beat, myself.

Nawlin's style, such as Preservation Hall Jazz Band?

I want to be right on top of the beat all the time, so that every note I play sounds like a cannon firing. To me, this is what made Zeppelin's rhythm section so powerful and compelling to hear (Jimmy who? :lol: ), and I treasure drummers who keep straight beats for this very reason.

This is universal to me. Just listen to Kleiber's Beethoven 5th in the last movement, where the whole orchestra is playing a short note on 1 and 3 with a timpanist. The next to last time they do this, they get it perfect...Pow!

*Now listening to King Crimson's Fallen Angel*

Tears of joy at the birth of a brother
Never alone from that time
Sixteen years through knife fights and danger
Strangely why his life not mine

West side skyline crying
Fallen angel dying
Risk a life to make a dime

Lifetimes spent on the streets of a city
Make us the people we are
Switchblade stings in one tenth of a moment
Better get back to the car

Snow white side streets of cold new york city
Stained with his blood it all went wrong
Sick and tired blue wicked and wild
God only knows for how long

Fallen angel
Fallen angel
West side skyline
Crying for an angel dying
Life expiring in the city
Fallen angel...

I'm not sure if it's just my love for video games, but I really like listening to music from www.ocremix.org. The Wingless is probably my favorite artist, "One Girl In All the World" is my favorite song.
Of the many genre of music I like...
Natural Disasters - Blur
Imagine - John Lennon
Let it Be - Beatles
Piano Man - Billy Joel
Shoots and Ladders; Make Me Bad - Korn
Break Stuff - Limp Bizkit (Angry music can be great sometimes :D)
Faint - Linkin Park
Gone Away - The Offspring
Soo many more, and sorry that the ones I listed seemed pretty pop. :p I think they're good.

"Under the Tree" - Spy From Cairo

I very much doubt if anyone has even heard of Spy From Cairo... but I posted it anyway to show off my arrogant aloofness. B)

[waxwing]

Portishead - Roads

[Dman]

Some “classics” for the male gender:

“Mother” – Pink Floyd (the insecure little boy in us all)

“Red Barchetta” – Rush (nothing quite compares to the relationship between a man and his first car)

“Black” – Pearl Jam (the agony of loving a woman who does not love you)

What’s great about bands like Zeppelin, Rush, Pink Floyd, even the Beatles (who have unfortunately been overplayed in previous generations, but are still Gods) is their diversification in their music. You can listen to two different songs from each band and think it’s not the same band. Not only is their music beautiful, but it keeps you interested. Some bands, it seems especially modern bands, play the same vein over and over until you’re tired of it and ready for something else.

Depeche Mode - Enjoy The Silence

Seconded! I've loved that song since childhood, and recently, accidentally discovered the much older DM, circa '82-'86...So glad I did.

Awesome bands, you have great taste! ANYTHING by Zeppelin and Alice in Chains is good. I played Lennon's "Beautiful Boy" while my son was being born. It was perfect.

I was listening to a good song this morning that is quite passionate (in my opinion the best music is always passionate) by Staind - "It's Been a While"

Anyone who likes Pink Floyd should check out their "Animals" CD. It may take a few listens to warm up to it, but it's a real trip-out if you're into that.

Thanks. Animals is good, but not quite up there with Wish you were here, Meddle, or dark side.

The Logical Song - Supertramp

When I was young, it seemed that life was so wonderful, a miracle, oh it was beautiful, magical.
And all the birds in the trees, well they'd be singing so happily, joyfully, playfully watching me.
But then they send me away to teach me how to be sensible, logical, responsible, practical.
And they showed me a world where I could be so dependable, clinical, intellectual, cynical.

There are times when all the world's asleep, The questions run too deep for such a simple man.
Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned, I know it sounds absurd but please tell me who I am.
Now watch what you say or they'll be calling you a radical, liberal, fanatical, criminal.
Won't you sign up your name, we'd like to feel you're acceptable, respectable, presentable, a vegetable!And

I’m Not In Love -10cc


I'm not in love, so don't forget it, It's just a silly phase I'm going through
And just because I call you up, Don't get me wrong, don't think you've got it made
I'm not in love, no-no(It's because...)

I like to see you, but then again, That doesn't mean you mean that much to me
So if I call you, don't make a fuss Don't tell your friends about the two of us
I'm not in love, no-no(It's because...)

I keep your picture upon the wall, It hides a nasty stain that's lyin' there
So don't you ask me to give it back, I know you know it doesn't mean that much to me
I'm not in love, no-no(It's because...)

*guessing that, odds are, the population of INTPs who like accordeon and fiddle music is a very low number ;) *

'Project Pitchfork - Timekiller' is in my head a lot when I visit this forum lately.

It's also a good song. =)

I've totally been into Audioslave lately.

On a different note (heh-heh, get it, "note" - god damn I'm funny) what do you think the most philosophical songs are...

some of my suggestions off the top-

freewill by Rush
The Rain Song by Zeppelin
Pretty Young Thing - Michael Jackson
just kidding on that last one

I know there are tons more, can't think of them right now

[songbird36]

I like "Black Dog" by Led Zepp - one of my all time favourites.

I don't listen to songs, I usually listen to albums. Recently, I've been on a slayer trip.

Slayer - Show No Mercy : Fun thrash metal with some hints of the future. Highlights include "Die by the Sword", the title track, and "Chemical Warfare" (off of their killer EP, which is better than this album probably)

Slayer - Hell Awaits : In my opinion their best album. Lengthy song development and very intelligent classical-esque melodic songwriting. Highlights include the whole damn album, but specifically "Crypts of Eternity", "Kill Again", "At Dawn they Sleep" and the title track. Basically created the death metal style of viral melodic evolution.

Slayer - Reign In Blood : Pure Nihilistic Energy. Raining Blood and Angel of Death are brilliant, and pretty much every track in between them is consistently battering and constantly energetic. Basically created the death metal style of chromatic melodic deconstruction.

Slayer - South of Heaven : Just a wonderful album, varied, balanced, and forms a great composition of their last two albums. "Cleanse the Soul" has a great hook, the title track is also ridiculously catchy, Silent Scream and Live Undead are very well developed tracks, Ghost of War is great as well.

Slayer - Seasons in the Abyss: Really degenerates. The first 2 tracks, "War Ensemble" and "Blood Red" are quite good though. Pretty much after this is the downfall of the band, falling into either inconsistency, banality, and idiocy (pretty much in that order as well).

[songbird36]

"Imagine" - John Lennon.

Those lyrics have the ability to move me more than almost any other song..

[Star]

Doctor Who theme song by Orbital. =)

[Star]

I have nothing but old stuff available lately. But it's still good!

Front 242 - Happiness (Dance Mix By Underworld)
Fluke - Atom Bomb.

This is the best song of the day thread btw, post in this one. ;P

[cathmc]

Whew! That was fun, reading all those posts...some HS flashbacks brought on by all the Rush talk...and I must second the mention of 'Exile on Main Street', one of the best albums ever IMO...and glad to see so much Led Zeppelin love.
As for the Beatles, conspicuously absent but for one post...lately I have been into the basic, drums-guitar-bass pop music that descended from them, e.g. Lemonheads, Oasis, Strokes. Also listening to a lot of bluegrass lately (Allison Krause, Gillian Welch in particular)
Can't narrow down to one or two songs for any of the above, I'm afraid...

Damn you have wicked taste in music, for some reason I am sorta suprised.

Anyway, I dug this up to rave about "Bloc Party" I had heard them in the UK a while ago and lost track of 'em. But they played 'em last nite at the club I was at. Ya gotta hear "Banquet" it is a great song.

[jetboots]

Tosca - Doris Dub << The epic of chill out groove style music; sparking, deep melty and slow motion.

Massive Attack - Blue Lines << The epic of "urban" chillout ultra hip and social styles, tactful, stylish and smooth.

Dead Can Dance - Monk with Bell << Epic of deep meditation, inspirational, organic, goosebumps, mystical, calm, breathing, higher being music.
