25GBs worth of music, and this is the only thing I listen to.

The new Killers CD? If so, how is that?

I have the Panic! at the Disco CD in my car. I like it, but it's too short.

[saravrose]

It hasn't left my car CD player since it went in. My fiance gets a bit annoyed and turns to the radio, lol.

[blonde]

1) panic! at the disco

2) murder by death

3) the new killers cd

4) AFI- december underground

5) The Academy Is

6) My Chemical Romance

[calicokat]

Slayer's New CD :evil:

[Stavhp]

Greenday :D

[Woolburr]

Evanescence - The Open Door

[blonde]

Evanescence - The Open Door

i am listening to it right now and i am still not sure how i feel about it. i get the feeling that i love the first one way more. however, Amy Lee's voice is still addictive and i can listen to her for hours :)

[Woolburr]

i am listening to it right now and i am still not sure how i feel about it. i get the feeling that i love the first one way more. however, Amy Lee's voice is still addictive and i can listen to her for hours :)

I'm undecided as well...Any has fantastic vocal range and her training in classical music shines thru at times. Not sure the rest of the band is holding up to the same standard. Fallen was such an incredible album...that it is going to be a very tough act to follow. Not having Ben Moody messed up some chemistry too.

[Claire]

Ronan Keating
Shania Twain
Robbie Williams
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
Usher
Les Miserables (the musical)
Chicago (the musical)
Christina Aguilera
Eminem

(yeah, I need to get more more music in the mp3 player)

[Ospi]

Led Zeppelin
Pink Floyd
Dream Theater
Thin Lizzy
RATM
Seal
Wolfmother

All doing the rounds at the moment.

[rklepper]

I am at work grading papers and listening to America. I have a JBL Creature for my ipod that I use. After America I have the Mark Knopfler and Emmy Lou Harris album cued up.

[CyberDyneSystems]

... however, Amy Lee's voice is still addictive and i can listen to her for hours :)

As someone who rarely finds anything to enjoy in todays music (new to me is Dave matthews) I can agree with this 1000%! Not since Carly Simon has there been a voice this mesmerizing IMHO. Some of there songs I would have no interest in at all if sung by anyone else.

My Ipod spends a lot of Time with "Dave"
Dave Matthews, and David Bowie,
Peter Gabriel, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Leadbelly,
Moby, Carly Simon, earlier 10,000 maniacs,
Kate Bush (post Peter Gabriel) Sade, Janis,
Deep Purple, Ozzy (with Randy Rhoades especially) ACDC
Earlier Bare Naked L:adies (haven't warmed up to anything since before "Gordon" )
Newfoundlands own "Great Big Sea"
and a fair mix of Beethoven, Mozart and Puccini.

[Mark_Cohran]

I usually listen to a mix of:

Dido
Norah Jones
Paula Cole
Sarah McLachlan
Carly Simon
Katie Melua
Toby Lightman
Nya Jade
Mindy Smith
Regina Spektor
Corinne Bailey Rae
Sonya Kitchell

This will all change in the next few weeks as my mood and interests change.

I did not know her history at all,. maybe I should look it up,
I think the first time I heard "My Immortal" I nearly died myself,...

[Olli]

Nothing (right now) - what a boring chap I am.

[blonde]

I did not know her history at all,. maybe I should look it up,
I think the first time I heard "My Immortal" I nearly died myself,...

you should, her background is actually quite interetesting and it is quite unique in today's "rock" bands. also, i agree about only listening to the songs for her voice. i can honestly say that there are many songs which i hate but i still listen too because of her voice :)

[Woolburr]

I was hooked the first time I heard that song. Then I saw her do it live....I don't recall ever seeing a crowd so enthralled as they were during that number...lots of people were actually crying...and darn near everyone was singing along. Was a most interesting experience.

[KevC]

Actually some taiwanese music. Really missing the summer (where I spent in Taipei).

1976 and Tizzy Bac

[Dave_G]

I am listening to the hum of the air con in here, and a load of women talking crap!

Final Fantasy 6 [Remix]
David Bowie and Reeves Gabrels
Hawkwind – Motorhead
Chrono Cross compilation
Jan Hamme - Windows
Hitoshi Sakimoto – FF movie prolog
3x3 Eyes - Takada Band
Hedwig and the Angry Inch - The Origin of Love

Reviving this thread ;)

Interesting to see Hedwig and the angry inch mentioned! Love the movie to bits, fantastic soundtrack, I rate it as better than the Rocky Horror Picture Show (another classic I have to admit). Saw Hedwig live in Sydney a year ago and wow! For those that know the movie etc, the lady next to me was nearly picked for the classic car wash scene.

I've been known to listen to:

Bruce Springsteen (huge fan)
Mary Black - CDS - check her music out, you'll probably like it as she has a lovely voice
The Corrs - Andrea is soooo HOT
Nick Cave and the bad seeds
Christy Moore - very political, lovely husky voice, great live performer!
Bif Naked - her album I Bificus is a classic imho - very raw and powerful but gentle
Peter Wolf - wonderful musician, vastly underated

My Creative Zen M60 has 45gb of music on it already ;) I'm also known to listen to a variety of music on my hi fi setup - it's probably worth more than the vast majority of people's photography kit on POTN :)

Dave

edit: I forgot to mention my other favourite soundtracks:

The 9th gate and Bram Stoker's Dracula by Wocjciek Kilar - wondeful composer, reminds me very much of Dvorak in a lot of ways. And how can one not include the soundtrack to Star Wars!

[the_incubus]

Ok ill bite.

Im listinging to a nicely balanced list right now.

Citizen Cope (rock)
De la soul (funky hip-hop)

[jdizzle]

Listen to these groups on my list Izak. Depeche Mode and New Order are great bands from the New Wave era. I don't get tired of listening to them. I also have seen Air and Thievery live quite a few times.

To add to my list:
Chemical Brothers
The Orb
Portishead
Keane
The Ballistic Brothers
DJ Q
Josh Wink

I'm not big on popular too much. It gets kind of redundant. So I listen to the underground dance, lounge, electronica movement.

[the_incubus]

if you like electronic/transfusion you MUST look up the disco biscuits, they are the kings of that genre.
