At the moment, there's particularly two songs I can't stop listening to, it's kinda interesting, as they are quite different.

One is Gimme Danger by The Stooges, it has that vibe of latent danger and decadence, like this song would sneak up on you from behind and gut you with a knife if you turn your back on it.

Normally when I'm really feeling a certain song, I tend to be more into that genre or whatever appealed to me about that song for the time being, but the other song is totally different.

Heimdalsgate Like A Promethean Curse by Of Montreal. All I can say about this song is wow, it's psychedic, masterfully poppy, the composition is sophisticated, the lyrics introspective and revealing.

Is there any song that really has your attention at the moment?

Slipknot - Before I forget

Dropkick Murphys - Shipping up to Boston(Main Theme from The Departed)

Diary of Jane would be one evergreen song! Darn! I love it.

Right now, tomorrow, yesterday, from generations t o generation most songs by Abba have a lasting melodious impact in my memories. They're angelic geniuses, can't seem to get enough of them

In Dreams by Roy Orbison. Mainly because I recently saw a documentary about him and was also reminded of the brilliant use of the song in Blue Velvet.

At the moment, absolutely HAVE to listen to the following a couple of times every day.

Queens of the Stone Age - Feet Don't Fail Me
I have always had a thing for Josh Homme's voice. And OMFG for a moment in this song, he pulled a Bowie! :love: Just...HNNNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGFFFFFFF *fans self*

King Crimson - Three of a Perfect Pair
Mentioned it in passing to friend here a few weeks ago, and since then can NOT get it out of my head. Not complaining, I love it. But uh, it can settle down round about now. :shifty:

Ladytron - Black Cat
Yup. And I have to ****ing dance to it too. :lol:

I was a huge Soft Cell fan many years ago and I started listening to their albums again and I can't get enough of this song, "Heat"...

"Your skin's going dry and the color of sand
Ignore the cigarette burning your hand."

Also "Baby Doll":

I m trying to copy, paste & post a YouTube video for the first time, hope it came out.

I d like to close out this year with a song from my top ranking poet, musician and visionary: My Back Pages from Bob Dylan. Who makes us aware that you never know what lies ahead, especially if your mind is closed to life s strange, terrible and blessed opportunities.

Happy New Year to you all!

Aaah nostalgia.


Seriously, though:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yMjHQvsaJIo

The beginning synths are 100% pure 80s trash cinema soundtrack
Then the punk vocals are 100% 90s chase scene
And the melodic vocals in the hook are 100% 00s feel goodness
Me loving this song and posting it here is 100% 10s love

This song is always playing at Dunkin Donuts. Never liked pop music, but this song is good & the best part is the zydeco instrumentation.

Some may find this performance a lil schmaltzy. But they say the best schmaltz is made in King s County. So here's some of the best, from two kids from Brooklyn who turned out well

That's such an amazing performance!

I was so sad to read that he was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease, and he's retiring from touring. :( I've seen him in concert many times, and he's always terrific. He just turned 77 yesterday.

Thanks so much for your message, gbgoodies. . Of course I wanted to post this, after hearing the sad news of his diagnosis. I alas, never got to see him in concert, but I 'm happy for you that you did. A true American treasure (as is Babs) and I hope he knows how much joy and feeling he 's brought to us over the years.

He's been my favorite singer for almost 40 years, (ever since I saw him in The Jazz Singer). I always looked forward to his tours coming here to New York.

Have you ever been caught in a traffic jam? How does a nun changing a tire in perhaps the worst traffic jam in New Jersey wind up leading the most unlikely of citizens to redemption? You may never have asked this question - and you may never have heard of Richard Shindell- but this gifted singer songwriter tells a story in the song: Transit" that coulda been a movie- hope you listen :

Listen, listen, to me, can't you hear me? Listen, I beg of you!
I have escaped the one who rules deep in space!
He knows my name! I know his game!

Now that I'm here, he will know where I am, and he will get you too!
And he will make you believe whatever he wants!
Inside your brain! You'll play his game!

Listen now!

Please! Don't you believe, whatever he says,
whatever he says, whatever he says...

I'm no preacher, I'm no space cowboy, I'm no flash in the pan!
Don't you know that you have another thing coming?
You are not safe! Here in this place!

Are you aware you face your last deadline? I am here to warn you!
President X-D will be on your TV!
Electron waves! A pixel face!

Listen now!

Please! Don't you believe, whatever he says,
whatever he says, whatever he says...

You will never switch him off, when you're hypnotized!
Don't you dare to call his bluff, he's well organized!

(X2)

Heeeee gets around,
Heeeee gets around,
Heeeee gets around,
Heeeeeaahh...

Liiiiisten to me,
iiiiit's not easy,
tooooo let you be,

Happy in your world, and you can't imagine
what's coming from the Milky Way, far away!

Myyyyy words are clear,
weeeee can't stay here,
whaaaaat do you fear?

Happy in your world, and you can't imagine
what's coming from the Milky Way, far away!

You, people of this world, be prepared to greet me!
You, people of this world, you will submit to me!
Deep into my third eye, you are getting sleepy!
Deep into my third eye, now you belong to me!

Now! Is the time!
Together we can change this place,
for the... better...

(X2)

Now, focus on my voice, will you do it for me?
Now, focus on my voice, yes you'll do it for me!
I'll give you everything, but you must come to me,
I'll give you everything, but you have to join me!

Now! Is the time!
Together we can change this place,
for the... better...

(X4)

You will never switch him off, when you're hypnotized!
Don't you dare to call his bluff, he's well organized!

X-D is comin'...
The sky is changing...
X-D is comin'...
My head is spinning...

And what about Hydra,
Sirrah,
Pollux,
Gemma,
Diadem,
Bellatrix,
Mirach,
Izar?

Liiiiies are what we once knew,
tiiiiime to live something new, hey hey...
We can no longer take things for granted,
We can not remember what we wanted, hey hey...

hey hey...

We're not slaves anymore, now we know what life is for,
We don't fight anymore, he is what we're living for,
We're not slaves anymore, now we know what life is for,
We don't fight anymore, not anymore...

More than tears fill my eyes!
As bright ships dot the sky!
More than fear is in sight!
As moon and sun stand by!
And cry!

So, this is the end! I'm leaving now, farewell my friends,
X-D is now in control, making plans for his new home!

Fate lights me from within!
To the stars I'm fleein'!
Earth heeds not my warning,
forever sleepwalking!
Dreaming!

So, this is the end, I'm leaving now, farewell my friends,
Maybe one day, time will tell, I'll be back and break the spell!

I'll break the spell!
I'll break the spell!
