Music!


Recommended Posts

I think a great way to get to know people is through their tastes in music. Everyone has a favorite band, or a favorite genre. Share a band you love! Or your favorite song! Or genre! Or whatever, haha!

 

 

Right now I think my favorite song is Chinchilla by This Town Needs Guns, but it changes like a lot

I have a real weak spot for epic music and trailer music and stuff. Almost always compile playlists for characters out of them.

As for other music, I love all sorts of rock. 80s music for sure. But I love all types of music. Polka would probably the the only thing I haven't even sat and put on. Haha.

:) I've been posting all sorts of music on the boards since coming here but.... I am a big fan of Epic Music... Rock.. Metal etc..

 

Here are some examples from all kinds of different genres since I can drive my friends insane with how random my music taste seems at times

Spellblast (my fav song by them)

 

Fairyland

 

Metalium :frustrated: *headbanging...* :dazed:

 

Wizard (they have a very old school Manowar sound)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nbD1zHsshwo

 

Wuthering Heights (I swear this guy does sound a bit like Ronnie James Dio)

 

Thaurorod (shame they changed styles and fell off the map in a way. This style was so unique! + dat voice!)

 

 

And just because not many know of him.. and his music is just unbelievable...

Denny Schneidemesser

(The song gets so good around 10:30 which feels like an early climax and then it just holds that emotion)

There's some great stuff in here, as expected. Darkest of the Hillside Thickets, Silversun Pickups, Blackmore's Night Guile's Theme, all fantastic.

 

I am a huge turbomega nerd for Tom Waits, so of course this is going right up here:

I am also a gigantic nerd for David Bowie:

Hazmat Modine:

And, finally, because I grew up mostly in the 90's I am obligated to throw some grunge in here too:

Y'know, I'd appreciate it if you guys didn't put 10 videos in a single post... if only just for the sake of the browser. :( Chrome in particular CHOKES on this many videos at once...

 

I fixed mine for you though by doing a spoiler tag like you used. :)

 

Surprised Chrome is choking for you, might be related to available system memory or CPU speed/quality. Doesn't choke at all for me.

I tend to have an strange mix of songs and genres that I listen too, here is a sample f what I've been listening too at the moment. 

 

 

 

 

Foreigner - Feels like the First Time 

 

QNm_LihEsn0

 

Betty Hutton - Murder, He Says

 

ClGNm89GZBE

 

Rachmaninoff: Prelude in G (Is my favorite piece of classic music)

 

mZnZGtCLCQU

 

Paradise Lunch - Guns and Roses (even though this is from an amine, I just love Swing Jazz/Bebop)

 

3wInHktd7hU

 

Johnny Cash - Hurt (Johnny Cash is one of the few artists that I like as a whole and sorry and NIN fans but I think Cash owns this song)

 

3aF9AJm0RFc

 

A-ha - Take On Me (I tend to just love 80s songs, both the greats and the schlock)

 

djV11Xbc914

 

 

Sadly there is a extreme lack of Queen and Duran Duran but I wanted to highlight some other decades and genres of music that I listen.

It's also just annoying scrolling through a page with a million videos when you're just looking for a specific person's post. :dodgy:

Agreed, which is why I redid my posts with a spoiler tag. I noticed once we got to a second page it is getting a bit obnoxious simply because the prior page ends up becoming this massive huge scroll of loading youtube plugins

 

Funny thing... Chrome works fine for me with all the walls of videos, but when I go to edit any post I have here in this thread (even one without links to youtube like this edit I'm doing now) there is liek a 2-3 sec delay where the chat window becomes unresponsive. It is ONLY on this thread...

 

:tonberry: *starts walking slowly towards the server which might be gagging on all the music videos* pokey pokey...

 

PS: for those curious how to do the spoiler tag it is [.spoiler] _____ [./spoiler] where ____ is any text / links etc etc. Remove the . from the tags for it to work
