La Vuvuzala - Be mine Tonight ...
Another GREAT South African Band and dance group (out of Cape Town) ...
Simple man wishing -- Bosson
I tink I like this one, it has better lyrics to tell a love story
Love letter by Leona Lewis :D

Nice song, but it is not a video .:cry:
If you like country music, I highly recommend "Lost In Love - by Kim Marsh", I think I like the song better than the two you introduced. Perhaps that's just my personal favorite genre.
Dethroned by X-Ray Dog
Epic!
AaaAAAaaaaaa - AaaAAAaaaaaa...
And
Dethrone the King by X-Ray Dog
...
You should probably listen those the other way around.
That's boring, only you with two songs posted! :)
<sarcasm>
Well, I didn't listen to them at the same time :rolleyes:</sarcasm>
Although... I could try. What a cacophony it would be!
Wait... :confused:
What is boring?
That there's only me with 2 songs?
That 2 is too few?
The songs are?!
:eek: :mad:
Take that back, infidel!!! :mad:
How cool, huh? There's even indentation and everything!
That scares me away. I am off now.

U.K., Carrying No Cross
Anyone who doesn't know that should feel ashamed. :p OTOH, this only applies to biological entities. Non-biological entities most probably aren't capable of comprehending this epiphany of art anyway...

I always wondered... If we were able to develop an AI to such an extent that it becomes artificial only in its origin, would it eventually evolve into something with psychology so unlike our own, a mind driven exclusively by logic and mathematics, or would it strive to become more life-like, and thus end up being as imperfect and as much a slave to emotion as we are?Quote:

What a beautiful metaphor for all the racial, religious, ethnic, and other conflicts we as a species are prone to.
To complement that thought: The Animatrix - Lux Aeterna (Remix) - YouTube Music Video
Korn - Another Brick in the wall
// Not bad :)
Last night I had a dream and I remember I was singing a very good English song in my dream. I forgot the melody and its lyrics but my voice was very good; the song was written by no one; I was walking and singing it at the same time in the morning light.
Now suddenly it comes up on my mind while I'm cleaning the house, it makes me laugh :-D
The song I am currently listening to is Emotional by day 26 :D
Bridge to Nowhere, by Victor Sierra
Kim Carnes - Bette Davis Eyes
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GnvMpULaSy4
but I have some totemic music that is quite always around my head:
Dire Straits
Rem
Billy Joel
Mike Oldfield
Bonnie Tyler
Eagles
Elvis Presley
....
I will NOT admit I often enjoy Classic Music (you know: Mozart, Rossini, Beethoven, Vivaldi...)
and will not reveal the names of italian pop/rock singers and songs...
but even if I am on the DarkAndSadAndBoring Side of the Code, I also enjoy some humorism,

and meanwhile, after the end of Bette Davis Eyes, and before ending to write here, I was currently listening this
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-bzWS...95E67EB31F8CB6
(how was it? <<The Dark and Sad Side of Sources>>?...)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OVABA...eature=related
(or <<Might the Sources be with you>>?)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jwu4S...eature=related
(Or <<Use the Sources, Luke!>>)
That is a good list of artists! Classics all of them!
Dire Straits - Romeo and Juliet, Brothers in Arms, Walk of Life are excellent - now where is my album?
Elvis, the funny things is, I baught an album with all his greatest hits. It is surprising how bad technology was those days, didn't do him any justice.
Eagles will tour South AFrica soon, so will Roxette!
Did you know Bonnie Tyler's name is : Gaynor Hopkins.
Hmm, in the mood for classics..
Currently listening to :
TEXAS - In Demand
Owl City - Fireflies... can't stop listening to it since I got my mp3 editor free
Gotye - Somebody I Used to Know.
This song is to me brilliant. Not my usual cup of tea, but I fell in love with the weirdness, uniqueness and brilliance and guts of this guy to attempt something like this in this day and age where the technological crap they call rave and house have taken over.... I miss those days where you could actuall SEE guitars being played, SEE drums being struck and SEE Real people singing, instead of a computer arranging all the so called "music"
Sorry if I have offended any person, but, once a ROCKER, always a ROCKER! Yee Hah!
Not forgetting the lovely Kimbra's bit at the end, of course :) I've heard this song a lot recently as it's been number 1 in the UK chart for the last few weeks. And very good it is too.
I've just been listening to Joanna Newsom's album The Milk Eyed Mender - one of my all time favourites. If you like unusual voices and lots of harp, give it a try.
Yep, she absolutely makes that song! Interesting fact is that Gotye struggled for some time to get this song finished. Then, he had the amazing idea of adding Kimbra as well as letting her sing from "his ex-girlfriend's" perspective. That is what makes this song work.
Currently on:
Journey - Separate Ways :thumb:
For all rockers out there. Wish I could play like this :)

Gold Took me back 15 years, how time fly :)
Train's Drive By
Queens of noice. :) It's quite a nostalgy moment but when thinking about the movie it also cause some mixed feelings...
Ok, enough with nostalgy. Now I'm into BlackSabbath/Mustasch/Metallica and of course all Queen songs... Black Sabbath, Holy diver, Black City, 636, Innuendo, Tenement Funster...
I watched the Queen musical in Stockholm and man that made the hair stand all over my body! :) Turn up the volume!
Split Kick by Art Blakey ...from A Night At Birdland, Vol. 1
Gone Away - Offspring
http://www.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3...EZ0GTw&cad=rja
One day while I was away from home, I suddenly smelt out the liniment my mother uses daily in my coat's left arm, I cried missing her, my home, my everything from a single armed chair, a table lamp to even the strange stores I passed by during morning exercises.
I just love Macklemore's Thrift Shop!
When I first listened to it I thought mmm, that sucks! But now, that is my friday song!
Texas - Detroit City
They went back to their roots here with their new album, and I should say it is fantastic!
Playlist for this week ( so far )
Monday : Nirvana - Nevermind
Tuesday: Eminem - The Eminem Show
Wonder what's next! I let my 13 year old daughter pick cds from my CD wallet to play in the car for the day.
disappointed with yesterday's choice. My daughter chose an Afrikaans mix CD. Some good songs, really good songs, But, I listened to it like two weeks ago, so it bored me.. Afrikaans music these days in general suck! It is too commercialised and every tom dick and harry think they can sing. I can also make nice rhymes with words that do not fit. - The only thing you need is money and you're already halfway. I am serious.
one of my friends writes the most beautiful songs. Compose them the lot. Genuine good. Unfortunately every time he has enetered a competition, the people tell him that his songs are not spunky enough. It is as if we are trying to copy overseas talent. In my day, I remember good Afrikaans songs. Now, you can probably relate that each language has its distinct sound and distinct style of music. that is what SA is forgetting!
It got so bad that my friend decided not to enter competitions again - this means he'll never get noticed. I kind of relate to that, but on a writer's perspective. Every time I submit a manuscript, I get told that the theme is too dark, and it is unfortunately not what they're looking for...
Anyways, today I let my daughter choose any album, as it is her birthday
Nothing yesterday - driving my wife's car - so tune into the radio.
What do you guys think of Miley's wrecking ball?
