Chill music is good.

"Mrs. O"

A chill song for myself.

The Dresden Dolls are the bomb. XD

Coin Operated boy, its so funny.

by Guest Wed Jun 16, 2010 1:40 pm

I'm listening to Adam's Song by Blink 182.
I've also made a genius play list with that song on my iPad (the iPod program on iPad). It has good songs.

by Guest Wed Jun 16, 2010 1:42 pm

Sarah McLachlan's new album, "Laws of Illusion", which the internet is legally letting me listen to in its entirety. It's neat.

by Mercinus3 Wed Jun 16, 2010 6:07 pm

I'm currently listening to Everyday by Bon Jovi. It's something that I need to listen to so I am geared up to see these guys live this Sunday.

Oh, very nice! Concerts are always good.

And Rie, the Dresden Dolls are absolutely wonderful.

I am listening to...

"Miss Murder"
by AFI

currently.

by **Kathryn Lacey** Wed Jun 16, 2010 8:59 pm

I'm listening to "Delirium Trigger" by Coheed and Cambria.

by Guest Wed Jun 16, 2010 9:09 pm

Mm I love Coheed and Cambria.

I just signed up to Pandora Radio, so I'm enjoying it with varying artists from varying genres. It'll enable me to be a little more in touch with music than my car's radio offers.

I'm currently listening to "Golden Road" by Keith Urban. I've never heard this song before...

by Guest Wed Jun 16, 2010 9:23 pm

Variety is always good. I actually like Keith Urban, specially when im driving through town and i'll roll down my window and pull up next to a ghetto person in their caddi. And crank the volume!

Oh What a world : Rufus wainwright. One of my favorite singers out there. One, although..one. Smile

by **Kathryn Lacey** Wed Jun 16, 2010 9:27 pm

I'm glad there's another person who likes a wide variety of things. I know a lot of people who aren't so fond of anything other than one to three genres, and everything else sucks to them. I love practically everything. My iPod has a wide variety of things on it, so I just stick it on shuffle to get the most of it all. Some people can't handle something like that. They like their genres to be separate, but I love them all one after the other.

Sadly, Pandora doesn't seem to understand that. It plays like... five songs in one genre all grouped together. =\

I'm listening to "Already Gone" by Sugarland.

by Guest Wed Jun 16, 2010 9:32 pm

Yeah, Pandora is like that.
I like variety, Just because. Everything I suppose but screamo. I like some rap, but not all.
I have a range from Classical, opera to country and heavy metal Etc etc.

XD. My brother and I do the same exact thing, and his car has a ridiculous system in it. We just blare punk and alt rock.

Also, I agree, Kathryn. Variety is, as they say, the spice of life. I love music, and I love to know as much about it as possible. How can you say you don't like a song without hearing it? I don't particularly like rap, but sometimes a song will be really good, you know?

"When I Come Around"
by Green Day

by **Kathryn Lacey** Wed Jun 16, 2010 9:41 pm

Riekon, it's kind of frustrating. ._.

I can't say whether or not I really like screamo. I haven't heard very much of it. I haven't particularly enjoyed what I have heard, but it seems so minor compared to what exists, so I'd rather reserve my judgment.

raine, I know what you mean. I don't like a lot of rap because it just doesn't fit me, but there's some rap I absolutely love. That's the same with any genre of music, though.

I'm listening to "Gimme Some Lovin'" by The Spencer Davis Group.

by xraineyesx Wed Jun 16, 2010 9:49 pm

Kathryn, screamo is a finnicky genre for me, mostly because they tend to call themselves hardcore and that isn't what hardcore is. Hardcore is a punk thing. It was started by punks. It did not involve screaming. Or metal. In any way. And also, a lot of it isn't good, true. There are some groups that are really, really good, but a lot of them sound the same and aren't very talented, honestly. You have to really pick through it to find the good stuff.

"Longview"
by Green Day

... again. Because my brother won't put it on shuffle.

by Guest Wed Jun 16, 2010 9:55 pm

Some rap indeed I love, like Oh My god. I dont know why but I love it!
I love music in general, I love exploring it all.

No Man's Land- Sufjan Stevens (Little miss sunshine ST)

by **Kathryn Lacey** Wed Jun 16, 2010 9:56 pm

Hm... I don't really know a lot of the background on genres. I'm more of a "Oh, this sounds good! I'm going to listen to it." sort of person. I don't delve into all of the history concerning genres, their beginnings, or their connections. =\

I'm listening to "One of These Nights" by The Eagles. I love these guys.

by Guest Wed Jun 16, 2010 9:58 pm

Thats the way I am too! But also because I study music, so im always up to learning new things. I have really good ears so im always listening for chord structures and what have it, for ideas for songs.
But mm. I love music so much.

No more room to breathe - There for tomorrow .

by xraineyesx Wed Jun 16, 2010 9:59 pm

Little Miss Sunshine was a great movie, by the way. And I agree. I just love music. But I love all kinds of things about it. It's not just an, eh, I need background music thing to me. I actually really care about it and spend a lot of time researching it and keeping up with it and learning how to play my instruments and actively taking part in it, like in musicals in the local theatre and such.

The Eagles are very good.

"Anything But Fine"
by Zox

by Guest Wed Jun 16, 2010 10:01 pm

Oh yeah. I love how music can change how you feel so instantly, or the feel to a piece of writing or play, or even yeah a musical. AHHHH I cant explain how much I love music.

Cupid : Jack Johnson.

What all musical instruments do you play xraineyex ?

by **Kathryn Lacey** Wed Jun 16, 2010 10:04 pm

I don't think I have a very good ear. All I can do is tell when I'm off key or when someone else is off key, but I can't always correct myself. I definitely can't play any musical instruments. Singing okay-some-of-the-time is it for me.

I'm listening to "The House of the Rising Sun" by The Animals.

by xraineyesx Wed Jun 16, 2010 10:07 pm

Music is a way of life for me, honestly. I can't explain it. I'd go crazy and probably kill myself without it. I honestly think I'd lose my mind with out it.

Hm. I play clarinet, bass (stand-up and guitar), piano/keyboard, and a little percussion and a little guitar. I'm not very proficient at the last two yet, but I hope to be. And I sing in choir and the theatre, if that counts.

"Franco Un-American"
by NOFX

by **Kathryn Lacey** Wed Jun 16, 2010 10:10 pm

Well, I feel like my life would be seriously lacking without music, but I don't know what I would do without it. I think, like with everything else that happens in my life, I would survive. I'd just be grumpier. XD

My boyfriend is very serious about music, though. He's a good singer, and he's really instilled a great love of music in me. It's a lot bigger part of his life than it is of mine, though.

I'm listening to "I Hope You Dance" by Lee Ann Womack.

by xraineyesx Wed Jun 16, 2010 10:28 pm

Haha. Oh, I'd be a lot more than 'grumpier'. I might have overreacted a little but I'd probably go out of my mind, since I already know what I'm missing. If I'd never heard music, I'd never miss it. But it's too late now. I'm in too deep.

Ah yes. A significant other with a passion for something often instills at least somewhat of a love in a person for their passion. If you know what I mean.

"My Life Inside Your Heart"
by Rise Against

by **Kathryn Lacey** Wed Jun 16, 2010 10:34 pm

Knowing what I'm missing would make not having music like... a hundred times harder... I'd miss the weird looks I get from my customers and from my co-workers when they overhear me singing or humming to myself. XD

However, if I had never heard music, I don't think I'd be so terrible. I can't imagine that I'd be the same person, though, even knowing that I'm not really invested in music nearly as much as others. I do understand its importance in life. I'm sure movies and television shows wouldn't be nearly as awesome without the power of music to guide a person's emotions.

I'm listening to "The End of Innocence" by Don Henley. I've never heard of this guy, but he has a nice voice.

by xraineyesx Wed Jun 16, 2010 10:40 pm

Exactly. Even if it doesn't mean the world to you, like it does to some people
(like myself, hahah), it's still influenced you as a person.

And I'd definitely miss the weird looks. Teehee. (I happen to sing very loudly everywhere I go, and it's generally music that the general populace has never heard.)

Well, maybe you've found a new artist to really enjoy! That's what I like so much about keeping up with music, discovering what's out there.

Currently listening to:
"Yellow Cat (Slash) Red Cat"
by Say Anything

by **Kathryn Lacey** Wed Jun 16, 2010 10:46 pm

Yeah. Apparently he's the same general genre as Phil Collins who I really, really like. I thought he was country until I saw him under the suggestions thingy Pandora has. The suggestions are by genre, and whatever genre I'm hearing is the genre that gets the suggestions, sooo yeah. XD

I'm listening to "Who's Crying Now" by Journey.
