Music: What are you listening to today?
In the spirit of the books and movies threads, here's one to talk about what you're listening to lately and what you hav
Just starting to dig into the genius of Milton Nascimento. I stumbled upon him performing with Pat Metheny and Paul Simon (first one, then the other).
It's a cliche but back then you'd be lucky to even hear that this music exists, let alone hear it. Now you can juist scratch the surface of the great music available to you in a lifetime.
Disagree. Broadcast radio was much less homogeneous through the 1970s and the chance of hearing him was greater. Actually, now my only source for new and interesting music is this forum. Algorithms not so much.
Argument today with my colleague while she was giving me a ride home. She insisted the line from this song was "Pretty women out walking with runners down my street." She refused to believe it is "gorillas" because runners indicates men who run around. I had to Google it before she believed me, despite my acute explanation.

Every once in a while I stumble across something that stops me in my tracks. I'd embed the video, but it gives me an error message.

Great live performance.

Beautiful performance. I like to think about what the lyrics to this song would be if it were written by an American.

It kinda worked out for the best. I read this and the last thing I was expecting when I scrolled down and saw the embedded video was some old duop type group. Having seen that, I was not expecting the wild stuff I heard. It was quite a roller coaster ride.
Great live performance.

I'm not familiar with him. "Great" is an understatement.
Great cover of "Between Planets" from the Jesus and Mary Chain's album Automatic. The Pixies covered "Head On" from that same album. I never listened to the originals until fairly recently. I'm convinced that it's a concept album about heroin addiction. Anyway, awesome song and a neat little video.
Listen to this one and then Vic Chestnut's "Flirted With You All My Life" and you might be ready to cry. And my friend thinks I only listen to "dirgey" music. She may be right.

"Flirted With You All My Life" was crushing. Even more so after reading about his life. Speaking of "dirgey" songs...
People always think this is weird but I listen to my music alphabetically. I start with the A's and go straight through to to ZZ Top. I have about 1000 albums on my ipod so it takes a while to get through the alphabet.
Anyway I turned over last week and I am into the B's now. That means Beach Boys! And after that will come the Beatles hot damn I love the B's.

As much as I love the Beach Boys, the best song about Barbra is...
I'll still take Barbra Ann but the best girls name song is easily Gloria. G L O R I A Gloria!

I'm gonna have to think about this one. Gloria's a great song. I love the Patti Smith version.
There are a lot of great Girl Name songs

Just off the top of my head if I really thought about it and haven't been drinking I would come up with more.
