[Iron Woode]

Experimental Film? That's a great track. I've seen them live like eight times
Fun fact: Istanbul (Not Constantinople) is a cover song.

 

[brianmanahan]

amazing, i'd never seen this

the only better thing i've seen from his show was the alison brie interviews

 

[dasherHampton]

Ok, so I've decided on one of three.

I used to get high to this song on a daily basis. It's a personally tragedy that I haven't listened to it in years.

 

[shortylickens]

lol That's like an impossible question.

You'd have to narrow it down by time frame, like grade school and high school.

I do know that one of my baby-sitters gave me a copy of "A Fifth of Beethoven" and I played it so much my parents wanted to do this with it:

it was funny when Office Space did it.

It was not funny when Family Guy copied it.

I think to this day I've had maybe 20 or less mp3s in my possession, total. The closest I have come to "digital music" is ripping a lot of my old CDs to FLAK in order to listen to them in my car on a memory card or some other device.

It's FLAC, no? [/pedant mode]

I resisted mp3s completely for a long time, but eventually ripped all my cds, for the sheer convenience. Even amateurishly digitized the vinyl stuff (that was never available on cd). And increasingly now you find things are only released in digital download form, so the number of exclusively digital file format tracks I have has increased a lot. It still usually seems to be cheaper to buy a cd and rip it. I'm worried that at some point they'll start releasing music as "streaming service only" so you can't even buy the digital files.

But I have a dilemma what to do with all the physical media that now just sits in boxes taking up space. I can't bring myself to get rid of it, for multiple, mostly irrational, reasons. (If I do, it will feel like I no longer legally 'own' the files I ripped from them...and what if I have a disk-disaster and lose those files? Or want to re-rip them for some reason? And, maybe, most of all, if I get rid of them, it's admitting to myself I probably should have just illegally torrented all that stuff in the first place rather than wasting all that money buying them, and all that time-and-effort searching in second-hand shops for hard-to-find releases! )

I mean there are a few CDs I have that I bought after I'd already gotten the music in FLAC form for free...but felt both guilty about the morality/legality of not paying for it and also weirdly OCD about not having the physical object.

It was not funny when Family Guy copied it.

that's true of every family guy episode ever

 

[Ajay]

Those are both very watchable...with the mute on. Otherwise, not so much.

I didn't realize there was actually music on the second video

Actual individual songs - no idea. But, lots of repeat listening from:
Pink Floyd
Queen
U2

 

[Spacehead]

Lately it's been:
Chis Cornell's version of 'Patience'
Ozzy's 'Under The Graveyard'
Foo Fighters 'Everlong'

These aren't by my choice. Stupid radio at work. 2 of those 3 i don't really care for & Everlong is a great song that's starting to get to the point i don't want to hear it anymore.

I don't overplay music i like anymore... too much. I did as a kid when the latest "great album" came out but i've learned to temper.
Probably the closest i've come lately is various songs off of 'Extinct' by Moonspell & some songs i got from the band Oomph!

 

[compcons]

I think I "listened" to this like a millions times. Maybe number 3. I mean Johnny Cash right?

 

[DigDog]

i listened far more than any adult my age should to Imse Vimse Spindel.

In english, that is "itsy bitsy spider".

Yeah you read that right. It's the classic nursery rhyme, the itsy bitsy spider.

In Finnish.

And metal.

of all the songs i thought i'd never hear, this is definitely one of them

 

[Ajay]

Yes. I 'listened' very intently to that clip - with my eyes.

 

[Torn Mind]

Belinda Carlisle and Joanna Levesque will likely be at the top in the next two years, but I haven't kept count and I like a lot of their tracks.

This song also has my blessing:

 

[kage69]

I've had these guys stuck in my head lately. Can't remember the last time I heard a track this good that had such a nostalgic video.
