Kinda funny, I've been really hating new music for a few years, but finally it seems like music's getting good again.
A couple CDs I like lately are the Killers - Hot Fuss, Coheed and Cambria - IV, Brandi Carlile - Brandi Carlile... hmmm, can't think of the others, but it feels to me like music is getting good again.
Bring it on! You think I'm a scared of some liquid soap?! My mom finally got so frustrated, she used lava soap on me. http://www.my-smileys.de/smileys2/blech.gif I see your liquid soap and I say this to it: http://www.my-smileys.de/smileys2/arsch.gifQuote:

Sean Paul has been either hit-or-miss lately, though. Us long-time fans can only reminisce about the days when he never made a wack song. Never. "We Be Burnin'" is my shyte, though.
i said liquid
favorite two artists, wendy, are PM Dawn and Seal. That combo is goes a long ways around these parts, not by accident I don't suppose.
I also truly adore "Murder by Death" who was first known as "Little Joe Gould"
waiting for seal to get his groove back tho...

His remake of Hendrix's "Hey Joe" is pretty decent, too.
"Kiss From a Rose" was a good song to put out into RadioLand.
I think that Seal's baby is going to be gorgeous, BTW.
Does anybody here like HIM? I am mesmerized by his vocal skills. I must have heard his cd 66 times this month.
music ive been listening to lately are
franz ferdinand-you can have it so much better
madonna-confessions of a dancefloor-
beck-guero
chumbawamba-sing songs and a scrap
queen"with new singer paul rogers"/champions of the world
gorillaz/demon days
castlevania/dawn of sorrow and curse of darkness stdks
final fantasy advent children stdk
yeah i'm on the seal bandwagon. i love that acoustic version of crazy!
i've been listening to...all old stuff. 80s stuff mostly. worth a listen if you have the time.
my itunes highlights:
Peter Murphy - Love Hysteria
Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - Let Love In
Seal - Human Beings
Depeche Mode - Playing The Angel
Depeche Mode - Black Celebration
The Sisters of Mercy - A Slight Case of Overbombing
Fiona Apple - Extraordinary Machine
Truthfully, I've been listening to a serious amount of jazz lately...
Keith Jarrett's new "Radiance" album
Albert Ayler's "Live in Greenwich Village" sessions
Ravi Coltrane's "Moving Pictures"
Andrew Hill's "Dance of Death"
Cecil Taylor's "Conquistador"
And I accidentally got a Joe Lovano cd "Joyous Encounter" which is seriously mellow.
And the last few days, I've been getting into Opera mode again, listening to Carmen and Traviata, and some Beverly Sills. Don't know if anyone else here is into this stuff at all...but whatever...it's what's been on my player...
My good, sullen, sad and affecting musicians I've come across lately I went and pushed into an iTunes iMix "studying stones" I labeled it. If anyone's curious you can sample that stuff there. Jame's Blunt and Ashton Allen being the newer of artists I've come across.
Also "living in Rome" good song and great video. http://www.nickelcreek.com/
never really listen to the radio much..

Josh Rouse - Bedroom Classics Vol. 2 EP
Josh Rouse - Nashville
Paul McCartney - Chaos and Creation
Beck - Geuro
Ben Folds - Songs For Silverman
The Dissociatives - The Dissociatives
Wilco - Live in Chicago 2cd set
NIN - With Teeth (most of it)

I've never met anyone else that has heard of Nickel Creek.
Is anyone here into Spooks? I loved their first album, and their second came out last year without my knowing it. The reviews were across-the-board positive, but considering that it was grossly underpromoted, I doubt that many people bought it. Have any of you heard their second album? I'm going to buy it anyway, but I was wondering if anybody could gimme an advance report.

Anything by Audioslave
Brad Paisley is a fav.
lifehouse and collective soul and allanis morrisette's music video is great
hard to do a cover but a.m.'s Crazy and Paisley's cover of Leila are both excellent. After that it depends on the moment unfortunately being old enough to remember the day mtv was touted as no commercials kinda sours the vh1 and all the other commercial crams imho cripes that's what makes radio a drag sometimes you have to wait 4ever to get to the tunes in between all the chatting, jokes, and contests
Love the music; not gungho over the biz.
Jean Grae Jean Grae Jean Grae
Oh, caught http://www.leelajames.com/ on a top 20 video countdown & Wow!
grabs me right there with her tunes
be checking out her work w/an ear to the ground for whatever she does
"Music" by Eric Sermon feat. Marvin Gaye will always be a fav.
Thanks for the link, humanity!Quote:

At times, the texture of her voice reminds me somewhat of Alana Davis (www.alanadavis.com), although Leela seems to have more oomph in her voice than Alana's ever displayed.
