Dear Mr. Red, i was responding in all brevity and sententiousness to the above post about metal bands, who use mythic topics for their lyrics. Is the informative response to another person's post, spam?

Yes, as it was a single sentence. If you added what you were listening to and described it or simply elaborated deeper into multiple sentences, than it would not have been spam. And my name isn't Mr. Red, its Dr. Red .

I'm listening to the entire album Guero by Beck, and will soon switch over to Guerolito. Two great albums that really do Beck justice.

SPAM SPAM SPAM

Well kiddies I'm listening to Mr. Moustache by Nirvana. It's a fairly good song. I like About A Girl more, and Moist Vagina is good too. However, it's really all about your personal taste. >_>

Listen to master Red....he knows what to do.....do not...provoke the dark side moderators...

As for the record, I'm listening to my custom playlist, cinsisting of a little of Aerosmith, and rock, the occasional metal....and classic.

Hehe....but my favourite type of music is actually the slow romantic ones...hehe.

I've always been a sucker for a well-written, slow, romantic love song. For the record, I'm listening to the entire "Ziggy Stardust" album, which was written by the gods and played by a legend. If you haven't heard it, go out into the brave, wide world and find the album or pray to Vehk that the album finds its way to you .

I'm listening to Frank Sinatra's The Summer Wind. I've enjoyed listening to him since I was three, when my father used to put vinyl discs of his in the old pick-up, which is now gathering dust, in a box, somewhere. When I wanted to listen without him (he had an infuariating habit of trying to immitate Sinatra), I used to try every disc in his collection, making a general mess.

Since then, I've grown fond of jazz classics and now I'm listening to them whenever I get tired of the noise on the TV. My school colleagues view me as being 'weird' because of my musical tastes, but I couldn't care less.

Been listning to some Symphony X again, this time mostly 'Accolade II'

Just a great song in my opinion, very nice listning to and hear the story...

Ooh, Accolade II, one of my favourites. I think Symphony X continues to do what Led Zepplin did to music, which is turn it to beautiful poetry with unforgettable instrumentals. It really makes me see the diamonds among coal when I hear bands like SX, giving me hope in what seems to be a dying couple genres.

I'm listening to the power rock intro of the DOOM series, and I simply love it. I like how video-games are really evolving music-wise, and you can see this listening to the soundtracks of games like Halo and Oblivion.

[quote=Symphony X - Accolade II]On a cold and misty night,
a ring of torches light the hallowed ground
where his father's laid to rest

In the reflection of a sword
he sees his destiny and he swears up to the sky -
"You will not have died in vain"

On the field - with sword and shield
amidst the din of dying man's wails
War is waged - and the battle will rage
until only the righteous prevail

From the shadows comes a man,
returning to his land - Winds of change
taint the sweet smell of home

And all around him, he can see
the pain and misery
this tyrant's reign is through
"I will stand and fight... Will you?"

A heart of gold pumps within his metal skin
A noble line he carries on

On the field - with sword and shield
amidst the din of dying man's wails
War is waged - and the battle will rage
until only the righteous prevail

I wish to stay...to be here with you
You were my strength...How can I go on?

On the field - with sword and shield
amidst the din of dying man's wails
War is waged - and the battle will rage
until only the righteous prevail

Ha! You have been captivated!

Anyways, I'm listening to 'Dressed to Kill' by none other than Symphony X. It's off a really old album called The Damnation Game, and has somewhat low sound quality, but it's still an excellent song with a catchy chorus.

Passed a CD store a short while back and was immediately seduced by soft, sultry, slightly airy female jazz voice. It turned out to belong to Emily-Claire Barlow on an album called "Like a lover". I'd never heard of her and don't happen across much jazz but bought the album on the spot. If one relishes a quieter mood and soft lighting, she might fit in nicely.

On the point about whether music posts fit within a gaming website, I like to think gamers are also multidimensional people who may sometimes want to share a bit more widely with other gamers. And clear headings make it easy to know whether a thread fits ones personal interest.

For the time I've been watching through all my Foo Fighters videos. Have a couple from the concert they had in Dublin where I think I can see Wolfie trying to climb into the stage and hug Dave Now I'm watching the video for No Way Back which was released a week or two ago, don't remember...

Listening to the Yeah Yeah Yeah Song by the Flaming Lips and watching the making of video (and then watching the making of the making of video, which seriously excists. Ever since I heard them for the first time I knew they were nothing more than breathtakingly innovative. Every one of their songs is a story in its own way, and some cds are long stories told in wonderful songs. If you want to get into The Flaming Lips, listen to Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots.

Wow Kora ... your listening to Frank Sinatra? Wrap your brain around this .... we just heard on the radio mention of Marilyn Monroe's death being too young to get definitive commentary on from the media.
Anyway, my hubby Cain said "you know why she really died?" And I said "yeh, she knew too many Kennedys." But he said "yeh, kinda ... she was the last link. The mob murdered Jack n Bobby and she knew too many of their secrets. It was the mob who got the Kennedys in office, through connections of the father, Joe Kennedy, and immediately when in office, the Kennedys began persecuting the mob - so vendetta was the card played.

Turns out it was Frank Sinatra who introduced Marilyn to the Kennedys. Old Blue Eyes sang and acted like a mobster along with Dino & Joey & the other Rat Packers, but they were just a musical embellishment of mob values.

But I really like Frank Sinatra, he used to fly in by helicopter onto the roof of the hotel next to the Garden State Race Track in Jersey where I used to work and they would seal off the entire top floor for him and his henchmen. Then he would copter over and sing at the Latin Casino and copter home again to sleep in our penthouse.
Also, they say he was so fiesty because he was stillborn after the midwife had to use tongs to remove him, in a homebirth in Hoboken, NJ but his Italian grandmother refused to let her first grandson die, so she held the lifeless infant under the cold running tap water of the sink and rubbed him into life! If you ever wondered about the slight scars on his face, they were the tong marks...

Currently listening at Nightwish century's child album.

Busy day here at school....it's gonna be good to come home again.

Thanks to long hours of listening to Faith No More I checked out a band called Mr.Bungle. Thats what Im listening to at the moment, well Im still waiting for the other two cd's to arrive yet.

Its certainly something different, thats for sure. Id say its the first time Ive listened to music which is interesting to listen to and funny. Maybe it loses a little of the interest because its more funny than what I usually listen to, but its still good stuff.

The wrist-Mushroomhead. I was listen to a slightly different version of this in the car a couple of hours ago. Very good song.

Arg, my friend cancelled coming around and drinking tomorrow, it was really strange because she agreed last night but today she had very little idea what she had agreed to. She was either drunk or stoned when she first agreed.

get her drunk/stoned again, and she'll come

ha ha ha yes...

I'm listening to some songs by Mando Diao... Great Band IMO and then some Franz Ferdinand(another great one), and then lots of random other stuff... Lemon Demon, Black Mages, and Alizee to name a few

myself, i have been listening to a lot of The Doors recently (i'm a sucker for morrison)
particularly the album, and song, The Soft Parade, which tends to move through several stages of music before its over.

i also love Led Zeppelin, favorite band of all time. Just read something today about the origin of "Zoso"..

The music I listen to varies depending on various things. If I'm in a mood, I listen to something punk and upbeat - New Found Glory, My Vitriol, Green Day, Teen Idols, Less Than Jake. If I'm mocking my profession, I listen to Weezer. Currently though, I've been listening to a whole bunch of stuff. The Killers, REM, James Blunt and Jack Johnson for the chillout section, and Alanis Morisette (Jagged Little Pill only), Alishas Attic and Meredith Brooks for angry, angsty feminine revenge rock, which is an all-too common occurance, but rarely done well. Though when it is... nice.
