Title: If you like music....some questions for you.
Post by Roxy on Jun 12th, 2003, 11:47pm
I was thinking of this as I made a drive today, listening to music.  I'm a little bit of a music freak, and I just got curious about what type of music everyone listens to.

I know we've talked on the board about jobs, books, movies....etc.  The thread about everyone's ch song was sometime ago, and we have some new people here who might like to answer, and read the other's answers.  

I had compiled/burned a CD before my trip....just a bunch of my favorite songs.  If you were going to burn a CD of your favorite songs......what would they be?  What kind of music do you like?  Do you listen to different music according to your moods?  What is your CH song.......?  

I know last time this was talked about, I found a whole new list of songs to listen to.......hope it does the same this time........ :)

     I love everything but Rap, opera and heavy metal gives me a headache.  

      Country, blues, reggae,  in that order are my favorites.

In the late 60's it was strictly the Beatles
the 70's was the Dead, Allman Bros, Stones, Pink Floyd, Jethro Tull.
the 80's the Dead, REM, Police, Stones, Clash, G'n'R
the 90's the Dead, REM, Nirvana, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Metallica, Alice in Chains.
Here I am in 21st century and I'm back to the Dead, Beatles & Stones...and it really has been a long strange trip.  8)

Fun topic Tracey!

In the 70's & early 80's it was Rock, Kiss, AC/DC, Boston, Journey, Foreigner, Styx, etc for me.

In the mid to late 80's & early 90's I switched over to Rap & Hip Hop...but when I say Rap...I'm not talkin gangsta rap...the beginnings of Rap...Heavy D,  LL Cool J, Run DMC, Salt & Pepa, MC Hammer...

Mid 90's just started listening to Top 40 stuff I guess you would call it.

But in the past 4 years I am now on a Rock/Alternative phase....Creed, Chili Peppers, Staind, Nickelback, Beck, Pearl Jam, Linkin Park, Cold Play, Default, etc....Sometimes I will also switch the station to classic Rock and some old school Soul ie: Earth Wind & Fire, Tower of Power, etc.

I'm not too fond of female singers....maybe 'cause I can't hit the high notes!  ;D

Ahhhh, Virginia......a woman after my own heart.  You would love the cd I burned yesterday.  Audioslave (I'm hooked on "like a stone"), Saliva (Always), some Staind, Linkin Park's "Somewhere I Belong", Gin Blossoms, Chili Peppers, Cold...etc...... ;D  Great CD to listen to while flying down the hightway.

Tracey,

Sounds awesome!  You should burn me a copy... ;D

No matter how many times they play Cold Play's "Clocks", I'm hooked!  That's my current fave song right now.

What about Fleetwood Mac, Led Zepp., Motley Crew, Blood, Sweat & Tears?  And Rush?

And to scare all you kids, I enjoy Jackie Gleason,  Herp Elpert (don't remember the spelling anymore), Montelvani, and the songs of Billy Williams, Barry White, Johnny Ray, Andy Williams, Patti Page, Perry Como, Jerry Vale, Theresa Brewer, Sarah Vaughn.  List getting too long.

Be glad to Virginia, it does have a few older ones on there too......Marcy Playground's "Sex and Candy", Chris Isaac's "Wicked Game".  Is that ok?

I think it would be cool to make a ch of everyone's favorite ch song.......any thoughts on that?


Title: Re: If you like music....some questions for you.
Post by 9erfan on Jun 13th, 2003, 12:23pm
Tracey,

I was really just kidding....but if it's not too much trouble, I would LOVE it!  :D  (but please don't go out of your way). I love both "Sex & Candy" and "Wicked Game"...you & I are very simpatico!

Unfortunately, when it comes to technology I haven't been brought into the 21st century yet so I don't have a burner yet...even if I did I probably wouldn't know how to use it... :o

I guess I'm a different kind of fish.  I go for the classical, primarily symphonic withsome selected opera included.  When I'm being hit I want strings, nothing witha driving beat.  Other times i get into some of the 50's and 60's stuff.  It doesn't get much better than "What a Wonderful World."

Interesting topic.

Post by badpunkchick on Jun 14th, 2003, 2:20am
hmm... punk is good... but i don't like it too hard core... also a big fan of alternative and 80s music. and it gets turned up loud when i have a headache... call me strange but it gives me something to "try" and focus on other than the pain. lightbulbs are good for that to.... but it's harder to focus my eyes when i'm crying.

i have what i call my happy song... polly by nirvana (one of my favorite bands... followed by radiohead and u2)... if you listen to the lyrics it's about a bird that is getting tortured and mistreated, but then there's this one line in the song that makes it very meaningful to me...

"she caught me off my guard. it amazes me the will of instinct."

the bird breaks free. now if that bird can somehow find a way to get thru all the crap he was going thru... then i just might be able to also. one of my buddies can play it on the guitar... he learned it just for me to cheer me up one day, and he plays it for me every now and then when he knows i need it.

Cool topic!

Rock and Roll, old and new, is it fo me.  Anything by The Who will do the trick.  Also love The Doors, Stones, C.C.R., U2...

I know it make no sense with what I wrote in my first paragraph but I must also confess I still enjoy stuff from the 80's... The Smiths, The Cure and a ton of "One-Hit Wonders" from that period.  Right now, I think Coldplay are the best.

Favorite CH song is "Bulletproof" by Blue Rodeo.  Don't know if it played much outside of Canada though.  I certainly hope so.  For me, it almost brings down the Kip scale...

Have a good one guys!

"White Bird" by It's a Beautiful Day!

den you old hippie!

Didn't think anyone remembered them. For all you squares and young whippersnappers out there, It's a Beautiful Day was a kind of a folkie-jazzy band from the late '60's - early 70's. Unique sound, featured a lead violin. Put out a few albums, then (far as I know) disappeared. Good stuff.

As a lazy old hippie myself, I will endorse your list, except the showtune from West Sdie Story -- not much of a showtune fan, unless it's by Gershwin. And throw in some more Van Morrison, and at least one or two by Joni Mitchell...

And you remeber Quicksilver too!

Come walk with me on a quiet day,
Out ridin' on the trail,
Away from smog and traffic clog,
Where all the pigs have tails
Out in Shady Grove...

Also from Quicksilver:

I feel like a stranger in the land where I was born...

and

Ohhhh, oh oh, have another hit of fresh air pure oxygen at 10 to 12 liters a minute through a non-rebreather mask...
