Inmates is good, on it goes, along with robert johnson crossroads and that tom petty song I forgot.

Alright, I think I'm done, do any of these sound like they might stand out too much?

Please.

mrpaku

i've been listening to Bowie almost non-stop for two weeks

Just Like That

I can't fucking stop listening to Sonic Youth - Sugar Kane

The song has been stuck in my head all day.

Also competing for complete control of my conscious thoughts: Collective Soul - Hollywood (from their new album)

Is it just me, or do Collective Soul consistently write excellent pop-rock songs? It seems like no one ever talks about 'em

Anyone want to help me put together a mixed cd in the same vein as the songs I'm about to post, which will all be on there;

George Harrison While my guitar gently weeps
Paul Mcartney Black Bird
Johnny Cash Hurt
Tom petty Alright for now
Foo Fighters Friend of a Friend
Death Cab for Cutie I will follow you into the dark
Bob Dylan Dont think twice it's alright


So basically if you couldn't figure out the formula, I'm looking to make a playlist of one singer, one acoustic guitar, and a generally sad but beautifully written song.

I'd prefer to not have artist repeate.

If you guys have any suggestions that fit that formula I'd greatly appreciate it.

bright eyes - lua

Oooh yes.

This fits well.

A few more and I should have a decently round playlist.

I don't know what I'll use this playlist for, but I figure these should be good for relaxing or dozing off to sleep.

Kelly Joe Phelps - River Rat Jimmy (sorry, best I could find to sample it)

mrpaku

wait i didn't click on my hotmail

The Black Hunter

Wow, this guy is really stupid.


If you want to sell jewellry you market it to overweight white women, not intellectual males.

mrpaku

overweight intellectual males at that

satansfingers

intellectual?

Guided by Voices - Dragons Awake

There used to be a fan-made video for it on YouTube, but it looks like it got removed. So no link, sorry

Dublo7

so like you know she ain't got no style

i know girl like she buys her clothes from Target

and he said and she said blah blah blah blah blah

Ninja Bot

So should I feel bad at all for having a casual appreciation for Korn?

I mean I would never pay for one of their cd's, but they're basically the 90's/00's equivalent of shit like Boston, where you know it's cheesy as hell but it's also catchy as hell.

Yes you should. They are the shittiest band that was ever shitted

Faricazy

korn is horrible and you should be shot

STATE OF THE ART ROBOT

There are a few Korn songs that aren't horrible, but anything recent is utter shit.

Dublo7

oh god, Korn...
it makes my ears vomit

River rat jimmy is going on there.

Couldn't find dragons awake on itunes, though I'm sure it's probably a good song.

Thanks guys.

EDIT: Dragons Awake! apparently was and I can't read, so that too is going on the list.

Double EDIT: Wanna know how sad my music collection is? My 16gig iPod touch has 3 gigs left, and only 3 of the useable 14 gigs is music. 8 gigs of video. I almost deleted the videos to make room, I'm in no rush.

Rankenphile

oh man, hold on...

more music for your shit...

A Pirate Looks at 40 - Jimmy Buffett

Burma Shave (find the studio version for optimal effect)

the origin of love, from Hedwig & the Angry Inch (again, album version is way better)

Rankenphile

actually, filler

PM me an email address

I've got something great for you in the next day or so, if I get time

Filler Inc.

You know, I saw the name jimmy buffet, and I was ready to write it off, but this isn't a bad song.

satansfingers

http://www.myspace.com/1900s

catchy pop in the vein of the zombies. i highly recommend the song 'when i say go' especially.

Javen

Oooh, I like this

satansfingers

i don't really care about year-end best of lists, but i really love 'most overlooked' type lists. the 1900s are but one of many bands i have found over the past week or so through those.

Regrettable

May I suggest Condor Ave or the acoustic version of Son of Sam by Elliott Smith? Also The Naming of Things by Andrew Bird could do well on that list.

Filler Inc.

Of course.

I'm gonna be adding more songs later, I'm tired and hopefully will drag myself away from the computer and go to sleep soon.

easy to do, and I wouldn't blame you

I grew up with Jimmy BUffett, and for all his cheezy "island" songs about drinking and being a parrothead, the guy can write some surprisingly good songs once in a while when he has something to say

that particular one is, in my opinion, one of his best.

i liked the polyphonic spree cover of "wig in a box" so i listened to some other hedwig songs and they're pretty good

Yeah, my dad loved him, made me listen to him which pushed me away from him.

I think of that stupid pina coloda song whenever I hear is name which is how I envisioned all his songs sounding.

tell me how it is

I see them in Brisbane on the 20th, but some of my mates are flying down to see them tomorrow

Just got back. It was pretty WOOOOOOOOOOOO!

If there were 15,000 people there tonight, I can't imagine what 55,000 at Sydney would be like.

Johnny Fabulous

The new Magnetic Fields single is really good. It sounds a lot like Wayward Bus-era Magnetic Fields. I'm glad. I wasn't the biggest fan of I.

Mai-Kero

So I just discovered The Hush Sound and they are pretty amazing.

And someone made this neat yet old graphic design video for one of their songs:

Yeah my mates called me this morning. Said it was un-fucking-believable. They did their Human After All/Together/One More Time/Music Sounds Better With You encore, hey?

Did you go to any of the after parties afterwards? The official ones have Bang Gang, Sebastian and Kavinsky playing, so it would probably be worth the $30.
