Dancing in diapers - What song are you listening to right now?

I remember Billy Idol for his hit single "Eyes Without a Face" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9OFpfTd0EIs
:cool:

... I am now listening to Mozart's Requiem. ...

I also enjoy, on occasion, some classical music (Usually the pieces used by popular films as background music). For instance, I like "O Fortuna (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/O_Fortuna)" by Carl Orff (I was surprised to find out that it was not composed by Richard Wagner) as it was adapted in "Excalibur" (1981) (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082348/) -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Db40S82sqic. In that clip a rejuvenated King Arthur, having drank from the Holy Grail, marches through the land on route to battle his bastard Age Progressed son Mordred whom he conceived a mere few years ago after being tricked into having sex with his half sister, Morganna, the evil sorceress. As he marches through the land, the flowers, trees and fields bloom and come to life bearing witness to the lore that "The Land and the King are one." I also enjoyed Wagner's work "Siegfried's Funeral march" that was used in the same film -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Ll4qS4anGo. In that clip, Sir Percival is ordered by a mortally wounded King Arthur to return Excalibur to the Lady of the Lake. When Percival finally returns to the spot where he left his king, he discovers that Arthur's body has already been taken by three enchantresses on a boat headed for Avalon for his final reward.
:)

If you're also into films like Excalibur, concerning medieval legends, I'd highly recommend watching Sword of the Valiant: The Legend of Sir Gawain and The Green Knight (1984) (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0084750/), another one of my favorite movies. The full movie (480p) 1:42 is available for free on YouTube (You need to sign in to view it) -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Z8CmSOFahA
:)

BTW - I'm listening to "Nobody wants to live forever" by Queen -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Jtpf8N5IDE which will be followed by "Princes Of The Universe" by Queen -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VEJ8lpCQbyw. Are there any other fellow Highlander fans out there? "There can be only one!"

Thanks for the "Heads up"! Somehow, I missed this animated series in the '90s. Luckily, those of us who missed it can watch all sixty five episodes (720p) on KissCartoon -> http://kisscartoon.me/Cartoon/The-Legend-of-Prince-Valiant
:)

... Listening to this now, by the way ...

Who doesn't like Cowboy Bebop? So many great songs from so many artists along with the exciting stories and fine animation made this anime a cult classic! IMHO, it could stil hold its own against the newer shows today if Adult Swim/Toonami added it again to its lineup.

One of my favorite songs from that anime is "Rain" by Mai Yamane -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l9_p-nhZXLg (You have to love the organ in the background - It adds an eerie sense to the entire musical piece!). Another was "Call Me Call Me" by Steve Conte -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pgdahnCtU0E
:cool:

There are a lot of other songs from Cowboy Bebop (Both rock vocal and jazz instrumental) that I like but it would be too much to list and link to them all! Anywayz, I'm listening to "All star" by Smash Mouth -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_jWHffIx5E
:)

BTW - In the future, Kid Chimour, please kindly list the name of the song and credit the name of the artist(s) to which you're currently listening. Thanks!

Hmm... I never watched the "My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1751105/)" animated series, the source of "Crusader (Are We There Yet)" (http://osu.ppy.sh/forum/t/196637) but I have to say that song is pretty upbeat. Maybe once the ponies are "there" (Grown up in more ways than one) they might have another tune playing in the background - I'm thinking something like "A Path" by Nami Miyahara -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z94my_Xjus4 from the "Casserin Sins" anime. It's sort of a play on the old saying "When we're young we can't wait to grow up and when we're old, we want to go back [To being young]."

Thank You for sharing that poignant reminder of the unfortunate attitude and spending policy that our federal govenment is taking in regards to the care of our veterans (https://www.nationalpriorities.org/blog/2014/11/11/how-much-do-we-spend-our-nations-veterans/), AB DC! It makes you wonder that if funds were diverted from the US Department of Defense for the cost of making two or three of the higher end ICBM (Inter-Continental Ballistic Missle)s (https://www.quora.com/How-much-does-an-intercontinental-ballistic-missile-ICBM-cost) which IMHO, we already have enough of a supply (Hundreds scattered across in stationary silos, roaming submarines and patroling strategic bombers (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_and_weapons_of_mass_destruction#Land-based_ICBMs). Note: I'm not saying that we should get rid of all of our nuclear deterrants - That would be a stupid idea for our defense!) and redirected to the US Department of Veterans Affairs which is supposed to help prevent the situation depicted in the video to which you linked (They're supposed to help veterans get the proper medical help [Ever been to a VA hospital? People say it is a nightmare to stay in one.], get the proper training for jobs, find jobs, get off of any drug addictions and/or find a home if necessary but like the video said, the resources to do so just aren't available.) the situation would be less dire!

terminator101

November 16th, 16, 08:54 PM

Hmm... The current political situation reminds me of what some people thought about President Ronald Reagan back in the 80's during the Cold War between the US and the Soviet Union - Many people thought that Reagan was going to start World War III with his talk about implementing SDI (http://www.coldwar.org/articles/80s/SDI-StarWars.asp) (Strategic Defense Initiative aka The "Star Wars" program) which people thought would provoke the Soviet leader, Mikhail Gorbachev, into considering a further escalation of the nuclear arms race. Luckily, Gorbachev was a man of peace and it worked out in the end with the Soviet Union dissolving and the Cold War ending. So in retrospect, Ronald Reagan was the strong President that America actually needed rather than a troublemaker. I think it would be safe to say that we all have to keep an eye on Donald Trump for the next four years and then eventually let history decide if he really is a hero or a villain.

I'm reminiscing and listening to "Land of Confusion" by Genesis -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QHmH1xQ2Pf4 It features the puppets from "Spitting Image (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spitting_Image)".

The vocalist in the first two songs has a nice, mellow, relaxing tone. The last two (Instrumental) songs sound good in the background for the RPG games.

Ah, YUI singing "Again", the first opening song from FullMetal Alchemist Brotherhood. It's certainly energetic. I like Miho Fukuhara's rendition of "Let it Out", the second ending from the same anime, for times when I'm feeling depressed -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zdEm7-mIdP0. It helps to pick me up afterwards. There were a lot of good songs from that anime. Someone translated (English subbed) all five ending songs of the anime (In case you're wondering what the lyrics for "Let it Out" say, you can see them beginning at position 1:30 in the video) -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Nkc4rRPIM4

That's not risque by today's standards but back then in the '60s, I'm sure that that song was probably forbidden to be listened to in many conservative homes. Another song that was probably even more provocative back then was Nancy Sinatra's "These Boots Are Made for Walking" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m2fPkzJsMU8 (Keep an eye on each girls' dress line and you'll be pleasantly surprised). I first heard the song playing in the background when watching Full Metal Jacket (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0093058/). I guess that the modern day equivalent of Nancy Sinatra's video would be one with girls Twerking to "Wiggle Wop" by Party Favor (Just try to keep up with on those jiggly buns!) -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KlDa-7ea-EM

It says that a young lady is shy about wearing the then provocative style of swim suit and also mentions that bikinis were risque back in the 60s as they were still not yet considered to be mainstream women's swim wear -> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Itsy_Bitsy_Teenie_Weenie_Yellow_Polkadot_Bikini#Im pacti (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Itsy_Bitsy_Teenie_Weenie_Yellow_Polkadot_Bikini).

I never saw the 1997 animated series or 1997 animated feature length movie but I actually remember seeing the 1969 live action movie, "Pippi Longstocking (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0366905/?ref_=tt_rec_tti)" as a little kid in elementary school (By then the movie was considered a children's classic film). My school played an old 16MM film print on a movie projector. I recall that it had some singing (e.g. There is a part where Pippi sings her name - I think the lyrics went something like "I am Pippi Longstocking. If you say it fast it's funny. Pippi Longstocking. How I love my happy name.") and crazy antics (e.g. Pippi easily lifting up adults into the air and then throwing them into the ground with her bare hands).

It's before my time but it's recently been stuck in my head since I've been following the "JoJo's Bizarre Adventure" anime. Araki Hirohiko, the creator of the series, was said to have been listening to the song while creating the manga which is why it's the ending song in the first season -> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roundabout_(song)#Legacy

Recently, I've been listening to the type of Nu-Jazz on the far outer reaches of Ambient Hip-Hop.

I think it's a severely underrated style--especially because the kinds of people who like it generally don't like Smooth Jazz, and that's usually what people think of when they hear the word "Jazz".

That song kind of reminds me of "Universal Radio" by Nina Hagen -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vgXQw25q298 back in the Eighties. It's good to see that the Female Punk Rock genre is still around. I was more into mainstream Pop Rock, Modern Jazz and a little bit of Country (e.g. Kenny Rogers, Willie Nelson, Eddie Rabbitt, The Oak Ridge Boys, etc.) back then though.

The Bear Flew Over The Ocean by Jimmie Driftwood ...

LOL! I guess that song was kind of a rebuttal to "Back to the USSR" by The Beatles -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h15XWqQQBbs. The Beatles were long before my time but they had a lot of good songs which still are played over the air and streamed online - In fact, I remember one song lead by Ringo Starr called "The No No Song" which I was surprised to hear from a member of the 60s generation (I heard it on the oldies station back when I was a little kid in grade school) which was known for promoting the "Drug culture" (Marijuana mostly) and "Free love" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DZN_8M4OpMo

Ah, neat! I've never listened to modern jazz.

Nu Jazz (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nu_jazz) is kinda weird though, because lots of things can be described as that. The style I linked was pretty close to Ambient Hip Hop, which is another style that is different from what people think it is. It's primary focus is not on being the background music for monotonous vocals, but instead to stand on its own with catchy melodies.

I quite like it too: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=vjYsA_wTlg0

Hmm... Some of the commenters in the YouTube video featuring DJ Whitesmith's music say that this genre was started by peeps like Nujabes (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nujabes). Nujabes, a composer, contributed his style of music to many of the main and background songs in Samurai Champloo (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samurai_Champloo) like "Aruarian Dance" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TYRDgd3Tb44. No wonder DJ Whitesmith's music had an enjoyable, familiar sound (I loved everything about Samurai Champloo including the music - There was a good mix of "Tongue in cheek" humor, exciting action, drama, and Electronic Hip-Hop music mixed with Jazz and Rhythm & Blues [The mixture or champloo known as "Nu Jazz"]) - Wonderful!

Modern Jazz is flexible enough to stand on its own without any vocals. Check out Hiromi on the piano and Chick Corea on the double handle bass guitar live in concert -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PHi4tFz-F0g

Well, the vocals thing was in reference to the triphop--because unlike a lot of Hip hop, more ambient Hip Hop (Like what DJ Whitesmith makes) don't rely much on rap... Not to say that it doesn't exist though.
For example, re:plus, another artist like DJ Whitesmith usually goes between triphop and Nu Jazz instrumentals, but occasionally throws in rap: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vx58RUo53dg

Cool! M-Taku starts out briefly with some Smooth Jazz and then suddenly picks up the beat with Hip Hop Jazz Fusion (Nu Jazz) for most of the duration of the song with another brief interlude of Smooth Jazz followed by a brief return to the beat which is then finished off at the end with some Smooth Jazz. It's like he took my mind on a roller coaster ride! Thanks for sharing!

Agreed. Hiromi must have been practicing for years and further fine honing her skills over time. She has everything "Down pat" and even closes her eyes and lifts up her head as though she's just "feeling" the keyboard rather than playing it! It's as though "She and the piano keyboard are one" (Just like Stevie Wonder (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stevie_Wonder), except she's not physically blind).

I mostly listen to Led Zeppelin, Black Sabath, Jimmi Hendrix, Pink Floyd, Guns n Roses, stuff in that direction. I am very passionate about how you do not have to like what they made, but at least you should know and respect them. I do enjoy every single one of those bands.

Speaking for myself as a child of the eighties, I've enjoyed Pink Floyd's "Another Brick in The Wall (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HrxX9TBj2zY)", Guns N' Roses' "You Could be Mine (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vygQZ9hYqyE)" (Straight from "Terminator 2: Judgement Day" and later in a BGM cameo in "Terminator Salvation" but I also liked "Sweet Child O' Mine", "Welcome to the Jungle", "Paradise City" and "November Rain"). Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin were a little before my time, so unfortunately, I've haven't listened to any of their songs (Back then in the eighties like most other kids where I lived, I tended to listen to the current mainstream music that was being played in general though I know that both bands paved the way for future Hard Rock and Heavy Metal bands to flourish. I'm not saying what genre each band might be in are since I know that there is an ongoing debate among fans of each band as to what genre of rock each band belongs - IMHO, it depends upon each listener to make that decision). I know of electric guitarist Jimi Hendrix (He was very famous in the sixties but way before my time). Unfortunately, my only recollection of his music is from times when it plays in the background in movies that depict scenes in the war in Vietnam (e.g. "Purple Haze" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cJunCsrhJjg) with Huey helicopters flying overhead but that fact that it is included in such movies is a testament to his fame in the sixties.
:cool:

... As for this moment, I am listening to a song made by a perished idol of mine. "Lazarus" by David Bowie, who I still miss very much.

For those who may wish to know, the official music video of David Bowie's "Lazarus" can be seen here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y-JqH1M4Ya8). It was one of his last songs before he passed away from liver cancer early last year. It's sad (He looked so frail in that video) and eerie (Since he knew he was dying when he made that video). It's a far cry from when I remembered him as a vibrant young man, full of life in the eighties singing in a duet with Mick Jagger in "Dancing in the Street" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9G4jnaznUoQ. May he rest in peace.

Note I put ''kid'' like that as a Walt Disney quote and another dudes-who's name I can't recall right now- quote both I can't recall how they go for sure but basically movies and animation aren't just for kids no matter what is said and other things we see as childish in media isn't childish unless we let it be seen as childish by ourselves which in turn make us childish for viewing things as childish ...

... Perhaps the other dude that you're referring to is the famous film critic Leonard Maltin (https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=4&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwjA0drsverQAhXkJ8AKHeNUC1oQFggrMAM&url=https%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FLeonar d_Maltin&usg=AFQjCNFpRsCoeQoH1eRCeqUQO1DNuzm31w)? For many years, he has extolled the artistry and storytelling virtues of the Disney Studio's animated films (Features and shorts) as well as other classic studios (Warner Brothers, Don Bluth, Max Fleischer, etc.) -> https://www.google.com/#q=leonard+maltin%27s+view+on+animation+ ...

I don't think thats the guy because the quote also mentioned when you see things as Childish then you are yourself being rather childish . I'd give the real full quote if I remembered the wording and who did it but that bit I put aside from me dumbing it down from not being as elegant about my wording but that bit seems rather true to me. ...

No problemo. Now that you've peaked my interest, I'd like to know who made that quote. Let all of us know when you find out! ...

He VM'ed the source to me today and I'm sharing it now with you all. It's a thought provoking quote that IMHO, reflects the core sentiment of ARs, ARDLs, ABs and ABDLs:

I finally recalled the quote I mentioned in that one thread you wanted to know I was thinking of if I remembered who did it and what it was;It was a quote from C. H. Lewis and the quote is

https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/145...ales-in-secret (https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/145718-when-i-was-ten-i-read-fairy-tales-in-secret)

Perhaps Mr. Lewis' quote can be interpreted to mean "When we're young we can't wait to grow up and when we're old we want to go back."

I was more into Pop Rock than Heavy Metal back then so, I didn't really listen to bands like Iron Maiden, Metallica or Black Sabbath. But I did occasionally enjoy listening to Guns N' Roses. The fast moving beat of the electric guitars and drum set in "The Trooper" kind of reminds me of the one in "You could be mine" by Guns N' Roses (MusicEvolution (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOVcxUK-gDmtWtxh-MBTucA/about) archived official video) -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_U5IhEAFGwQ (Live version) -> https://www.vevo.com/watch/guns-n-roses/you-could-be-mine-(live)/USUV71401290.

Wait you mean that was a theme song to a show at some point or showed up in it? If not do you just mean you plan to check the series out? I ask as I never heard of that series then again I never was big on tv and sorta have just been finding shows I now like that everyone knew about thanks to the net. Partially do to I barely watched tv when I had it. I say when had it as well you know cable and satellite tv is more and more dying out as time goes on,well Cable is almost completely dead at this point-I'm surprised its still barely around thought it would be completely dead now -and satellite tv is getting pushed aside a lot more as time goes by because streaming sites are becoming more a norm as both you don't need to record something or be at the house on time to see it plus we are getting more stuff made and released on streaming sites only then later on dvds or download so yeah .

Anyway found the song ''No Scrubs by TLC'' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=18SwG-kep7s by chance and I oddly enjoy it despite not normally being a fan of the music type in that maybe its the beat and singers voice as some music from genres/music types I'm not a fan of I end up liking some songs from that genres

I liked the video part of the JCY music video more than the original by Sisqo -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oai1V7kaFBk&feature=youtu.be since it featured more back shots of thongs than the original. It was interesting how the periodic "Cork popping" noise was simulated by a Wood block (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wood_block) instrument. BTW, also worth watching is the version of the song from Eddie Murphy's movie "The Nutty Professor" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fUuzhFPSJWg). Other than more thong clad girls and the popping cork effects, there was nothing really new - Sisqo and the three members of JCY were just recycling the gymnastics moves that Sisqo already performed back in 1999 (e.g. The backtuck (https://media.wired.com/photos/597a11410c694f7e4119409f/master/w_424,c_limit/backtuck1.gif)). Too bad they didn't feature a girl wearing the thong diaper (https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-kW0t6AQ-Cs4/T8vTtNaEcjI/AAAAAAAADOU/fqhRuXAvz0M/s1600/diaper+thong.jpg)! - That would have raised some eyebrows!

I'm listing to Alphabet Boy by Melanie Martinez ... I am aware of the controversy revolving around her from last year but I don't let that take away from the music of hers .

Well said, my friend. That's a good find for our diapered community! There was also great controversy surrounding Miley Cyrus's music video, "BB Talk", (Released in August 2015, two months after Melanie Martinez's "Alphabet Boy" was released in June 2015) when she actually wore a disposable diaper during its filming -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DfwJA0f0UTg! For added shock value, she constantly drops F-Bombs throughout her song as she plays around as a baby girl along with some risque adult moves for which she is famously/infamously known for incorporating into her videos in the past which IMHO, kind of detracts from this music video (Again, this is for shock value - She totally destroys her Hannah Montana image in this video [If she hasn't already done so]). Some peeps in our diapered community may enjoy her adult baby play but peeps outside of our community might mistakenly interpret a negative message (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paraphilic_infantilism#Pedophilia) while watching the scenes where she bumps and grinds herself while wearing a tight fitting, diaper-less onesie in a giant crib (It's like on the one hand, she's promoting the ABDL culture and yet on the other hand, she is unintentionally(?) defaming it by sending out a message about it that can easily be misunderstood for something else). Like it or leave it, it's Miley Cyrus's unique style as a music artist.

That's an interesting song - The bass guitar instrumental part in the background (In the beginning, before any vocals can be heard) sort of reminds me of the '50s bass guitar instrumental background (Also in the beginning) in Elvis Presley's song "Don't Be Cruel" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M_Lv6cHgnjo. The quartet vocals sort of reminds me of those in The Statler Brothers' song "Oh Baby My" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ceiLAkP_5Y. Thanks for sharing this great find~!

Unique style? I'm sorry to be that guy, but Miley is not unique. She's the same story of child star that turned to being slutty and/or provacitive when their window of child stardom slammed shut. ...

I was just commenting about her style in her current career as a musician. I wasn't making a reference about her background as a child TV star in my previous comment (Besides, it's not like her life turned for the worse like what happened to child TV stars Dana Plato (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dana_Plato#1987%E2%80%931998:_After_Diff'rent_Stro kes) and Todd Bridges (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Todd_Bridges#Legal_issues) from Different Strokes after the TV sitcom was finished).

Remember, I had previously said:
... Like it or leave it, it's Miley Cyrus's unique style as a music artist.

https://st.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/blankstare.gif

... don't mistake a mulcrum of talent for being unique amongst the countless others in her situation.

Even if you don't like her musical talent (I wasn't a fan of all the F-bombs that she was dropping during her video - IMHO, It kind of "takes away" a bit of class from the performance), wouldn't you'd say that her style is indeed unique enough to shock general audiences (Wearing a disposable diaper and somewhat acting like a baby girl in a music video that is broadcast for the whole World to see is not unique enough)? It's so much so that peeps are calling her the next Madonna -> http://www.debate.org/opinions/do-you-think-miley-cyrus-is-the-new-madonna. Madonna was the "Queen of Pop [And shock]" back in her day, pulling stunts like fingering herself on stage at live concerts (She even included it in an impromptu "How to" demo -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tLG-rwA-cyU).

I'm listening to "Hurt" by Nine Inch Nails (Live in concert) -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KR4DjYczINM. Johnny Cash's cover rendition of the song (With lyrics in subtitles) is also as poignant -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vt1Pwfnh5pc. Yeah, The Rick and Morty episode where Bird Person gets married then betrayed and killed by his bride Tammy Gueterman, brought me there (Though I've listened to some Johnny Cash songs before like "Ring of Fire" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=It7107ELQvY and "HighwayMan" (He sings the last part of the song as a member of the former musical group, The Highwaymen) -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aFkcAH-m9W0.
:( :cool:

I'd also like to mention that I've recently discovered a cute, energetic JMetal video that peeps here might enjoy - It's "Catch Me If You Can" by BABYMETAL (Live in concert) -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XKwscPp1kLs. The two girls that flank the older, lead female singer (Named Su-metal) appear to be around sixteen years old (Named Yuimetal and Maometal) when the song was released back in 2014. Also, the backup band looks cool with their faces painted up to look like Noh (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noh) masks and all of the girls imitate kitsunemimi (https://aminoapps.com/c/neko/page/blog/reasons-i-love-kitsunemimi/8BJc_munVammQp1NVe1Pwx32oPQN10q) with their little cat clawing in the air~! It's kawaii meets Heavy Metal. When one of the camera pans out to the packed crowd, you can see a circular mosh pit that looks like a whirlpool of humanity! Check it out!

That's a wonderful animated short, Tewi. I enjoyed how all of the visual action stayed in tune to the beat of the techno video game music so that the two worked in tandem to deliver the story of the young woman and the snail girl. Thanks for sharing the official music video of the song "Pixel Galaxy" called "Snail's House" by Ujico~!
:)

For all you guys and gals that enjoy creative, independent animation, here's a highly acclaimed, wonderful animated short made by three students (Names not given) from the National Taiwan University of Arts about a little blind girl looking for her dog named Gogo called "Out of Sight" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4qCbiCxBd2M. The viewer sort of gets to experience how the World becomes "alive" to the little girl as she uses her other remaining senses to perceive it during her journey.
:cool:

BTW - I'm listening to "Hold On" by Wilson Phillips -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uIbXvaE39wM.

Update - The three students that created the "Out of Sight" animated short are three girls (Yu Ya-ting, Yeh Ya-hsuan and Chung Ling) who studied under the tutelage of master animator Hayao Miyazaki (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hayao_Miyazaki) who co-founded Studio Ghibli (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Studio_Ghibli) and who is responsible for works like "Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind," "My Neighbor Totoro," and "Spirited Away" (See)-> https://taiwantoday.tw/news.php?unit=18,23,45,18&post=24426!

After watching Sword Art Online Alternative I've come to really like the music and since Pitohui is my fav naturally I fell in love with her song! Been listening to it a lot! ...

Thanks for sharing the insert song (https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/InsertSong) in the ninth episode of SAO Alternative Gun Gale Online, "Disorder" by ReoNa (http://www.reona-reona.com/) (The singing voice behind the character, Kanzaki Elsa (http://swordartonline.wikia.com/wiki/Kanzaki_Elsa) in the anime)~! The tempo certainly moves fast in that song and rightly so, given that it probably is setting the mood of the anime sequence into which it is "inserted".

I also recall one of my favorite insert songs, "Stories" by Hitomi Kuroishi -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HCbmwcqA66g from Code Geass (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_Geass). The slow tempo of the music and Hitomi Kuroishi's soothing, singing style reminds me of Enya (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enya)'s who is famous for "Only Time" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7wfYIMyS_dI.
:)

I've been listening to a lot of HoneyComeBear recently...

Thanks for sharing independent artists, HoneyComeBear (https://www.honeycomebear.com/)'s, "Mirror" Future Bass (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Future_bass) song. The Future Bass genre dance music song has a nice fast tempo, synthesized Bass guitar and other synthesized instruments (Drums, wooden bell and miscellaneous synthesizer keyboard (https://consordini.com/best-synthesizer-keyboard/) sounds) that finely accompany the singer's gentle voice.

I came across another independent artist, Michishige Sayumi (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sayumi_Michishige), whose song "Lalala no Pipipi" peeps might find kawaii for fast paced, dance music (Live in concert) -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y6TacYD2q3w and (Official music video) -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6abVu-uFUaA.

BTW - I'm listening to "Don't Dream It's Over" by Crowded House -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J9gKyRmic20 with its slow tempo, "Old School" Bass guitar playing in the background!

Here's something that I just stumbled upon while trying to look up a formal definition for the term "Poo Poo" - Just when you thought that things couldn't get any weirder, there's a song for those into scat and getting stoned: Do you dare to watch the video of the song "Ganja Poo Poo" by Cupid Kidz which I'm listening to right now? -> https://vimeo.com/43271145 (Warning: Contains a boatload of simulated scat play, partial female nudity [Exposed breasts with hidden nipples], simulated lesbian intercourse and simulated 'toking of marijuana).
:eek:

Spoiler Alert! - Starting at position 2:32, the electrical tape covering one boob of each girl's breasts "Disappears" and the nipple on each exposed breast then becomes entirely visible!

Haddaway's "What is Love" released in 1993 -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HEXWRTEbj1I is truly a song that endures the test of time. Nineteen years later, MrSolidSnake745 created an amazing electronic music version of the song generated by the Read/Write heads of floppy disk drives sync'ed by a customized computer program that he wrote -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xk_XaJ7gE4Q! Now, a quarter of a century later, I come across a professionally looking, fan made compilation video released a few months ago in November 2017 by Km Music that features many talented (Amateur and professional?) dancers performing to the beat of this song. Check it out! -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XPmBnnon0Ek. All of the dancers appear to have a lot of energy - I especially enjoyed watching the girl with the small pigtails in her front (She does "Fancy footwork"), the girl with the blonde pigtails on both sides of her head (She has a powerful presence), the guy dancing on the edge of the rooftop (Crazy legs!), the guy dancing barefooted (Bold, considering there could be broken glass on the street), the cute girl in the striped shirt and the sexy redheaded girl! Enjoy~!
:cool:

BTW - Curiously enough, in one of the screenshots below (Taken from position 3:52 in the video), the cute girl in the striped shirt looks like she's wearing a light purple pullup Prevail brand (https://prevail.com/products/prevail-for-women-overnight)?) diaper underneath her tight fitting jeans (I don't know whether it's just an illusion created by the camera angle or if we caught a sneak peak of something real - With all of that jumping around during the powerful dancing, it's possible that she needed some leakage protection)!

BTW - Who else here remembers that "I Knew I Loved You" was the song that was played when Darva Carver said "Yes" to Rick Rockwell's marriage proposal after beating all of the other contestant brides at the end of the TV special "Who wants to marry a millionaire (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0241059/?ref_=nm_flmg_slf_1&no_cache=31053)"? It was a farce of a TV show that pissed on the sacred institution of marriage (Like two people could really find their "True love" on a two hour broadcast TV game show program!) and the literal words from the song fit the entire premise of the show to a tee (Although the aftermath was totally the opposite.

Though I'm not actually dancing... I've been going through a bit of a rough patch lately, and listening to "Breathe" by Taylor Swift on her early album Fearless has been really helpful.

terminator101

December 3rd, 18, 07:15 PM

It sounds like you just went through a tough breakup. It's never easy. All you can do is take it one day at a time and hope that time will eventually heal your wounds. Taylor Swift's "Breathe" kind of reminds me of another quasi-positive, yet sad song, "It Only Hurts When I'm Breathing" by Shania Twain (Official music video not available. Fan made video with lyrics) -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jt_1CyxMVh0
:(

In this holiday season full of songs with great meaning, I'm listening to a song with no real meaning (But a great melody), "Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm" by Crash Test Dummies -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eTeg1txDv8w!
;)

The song with no real meaning was so popular that Wierd Al Yankovic made a parody of it called "Headline News" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dU95v23MQ4c

The Crash Test Dummies appreciated the humor of Wierd Al's song so much that they teamed up with him to perform a live rendition of his paraody song -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=49Nm097EhLc! Talk about being good sports!

Not a breakup, though of course that’s what most of Taylor Swift’s early songs were about. Rather there’s been some upheaval in the family and coming to terms with a troubled past. Even so, I still find Taylor’s “Breathe” to be very beautiful and very therapeutic.

I’ve also been listening to “Man Against The World” from the Rocky IV soundtrack.

I don't know what exactly happened in your family's situation but it sounds like you have a long road ahead of you and it won't be easy to travel through it but still, you can only take it one day at a time. This reminds me of "A Long Road" by Dan Hill from the "Rambo: First Blood" soundtrack -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nRGJDb-30C8. I wish you the best of luck in dealing with your difficult situation~!
http://st.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/blankstare.gif :)

I'm not in a good situation in my life either (Likewise, I don't want to go into any details) but sometimes I have to think positive thoughts for the future, otherwise I'll go crazy thinking about my situation. No one can change the past but anyone can change their future. In that spirit, one upbeat song from my childhood pops into my mind - I'm listening to "Nothing Can Stop Us Now" by Kiki Dee played in the closing credits from the movie "Stir Crazy" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oSrXceIivkY

I enjoyed that song as well. My favorite Elton John song is his special version of "Candle In the Wind (Goodbye Norma Jean)" used to pay tribute to Princess Diana at her funeral -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dg_MIysNGIU It was reported later that he said that he played through the heartfelt song without shedding a tear or breaking down during the performance (Even though he wanted to), as doing so would dishonor her memory (He [And the rest of the World] saw her as a tower of strength and endurance). Of course, it would also be a terrible spectacle to behold if he did suddenly stopped performing mid way and broke down.

For those interested, I found the official video for "Cross Off (feat. Chester Bennington)" by Mark Morton on YouTube -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fv8oTQWaxwc. This song kind of reminds me of Fleetwood Mac's classic rock song "Don't Stop" which I first heard on an "Oldies" radio station as a little kid -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tm0nopK1BQM. Both songs talk about forgetting the past.
:cool:

Do you consider yourself a "metalhead", DiapeePrincessSara? I'm not really into Heavy Metal but I did listen to Guns N Roses when I was a teen (They were sort of a mix of Metal, Hard Rock and Blues). I'm mainly into Pop Rock, Classic Rock, Country and Modern Jazz but I'm also open to listening to some Heavy Metal, Techno, Rap and Classical music once in a while.

@Terminator101 I wouldn't really consider myself a metal head. I love Linkin Park but that is generally the heaviest I listen to regularly. I love Cross Off namely because it has Chester singing/screaming but even the instrumental is great! I will be checking out the entire album Mark Morton is releasing and if it sounds similar, in instrumental, to Cross Off I will definitely enjoy the whole album. I mean I do also listen to the Gothic Rock artist Asriel (a Japanese band) and they do indeed sound like heavy metal in terms of comparing them to American music. I would recommend the song "Illuminate" but they do have lighter songs like "peony" which is a b***h to find on YouTube (I found it on YouTube in 2012 when I was in college). Since then it has either been blocked in the US or it is blocked behind YouTube Premium or whatever paid subscription they have. More to the point I do enjoy heavier music but I also have a love for lighter stuff and J-pop and even Linkin Park's One More Light album. In fact I have the chorus to the song One More Light from the One More Light album tattooed on my arm. I even based my signatre on the chorus.

January 17th, 19, 07:50 PM

I enjoyed Linkin Park's hits "What I've Done" (See -> here (http://diaperedanime.com/forum/showpost.php?p=2468845&postcount=5)) and "Somewhere I Belong" (See -> here (http://diaperedanime.com/forum/showpost.php?p=2922825&postcount=3)). Chester Bennington had a fine singing voice that could extend over a wide range (From soft and smooth to loud and screaming). It's a shame that he decided to finally end his life due to trauma from the past sexual abuse that he suffered when he was a kid.
http://st.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/blankstare.gif

I couldn't find an Asriel video for "Peony" on Youtube, Vimeo or Dailymotion. Perhaps the company that owns the publishing rights to Asriel's music, Pony Canyon (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asriel_(band)), wants to keep it exclusive PPV (Pay Per View). Anyway, I rarely listen to Jpop outside of Anime (Opening, ending and insert songs) and VNs (Visual Novels). I remember that Tewi (http://diaperedanime.com/forum/member.php?u=13529) used to enjoy Jpop that is not associated with any anime series (See -> here (http://diaperedanime.com/forum/showpost.php?p=2951298&postcount=106)). It's too bad that you didn't get to know her before she left us (She hasn't been around here for months - Hopefully, she will be back someday).
:(

As a "Gothic Lolita Toddler Princess" who enjoys Jpop and Heavy Metal, you might like "Catch Me If You can" by JMetal band, BABYMETAL (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Babymetal) (The group's female vocalists have influences from Jpop, so the band is actually somewhere mostly in JMetal but with a little Jpop mixed in) -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H_yATzyi-3g. I stumbled upon their enjoyable, energetic video a few months ago (See -> here (http://diaperedanime.com/forum/showpost.php?p=3021927&postcount=110). The band plays for around two minutes before the girl singers (Dressed in Gothic Lolita clothing) come out to perform (See pos 1:48 in the video).
:)

I'm listening to "Time of My Life" by Bill Medley and Jennifer Warnes (Fan made version with lyrics. Official version not available) -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eMoMBFhMdDw. In 2010, The Black Eyed Peas released a Techno reboot version of the song which they called "The Time" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JwQZQygg3Lk.

Oh trust me @Terminator101 I know all about BABYMETAL! I have 3 of their songs on my phone. I love their music and adore their Gothic and Lolita clothing! I also did get to know Tewi before she left. She and I had an RP before she vanished and we mostly talked through PMs instead of VMs which is likely why you thought we didn't know each other. I do hope she is okay. I miss her. I know she vanished initially because her phone broke, same as why I vanished for a bit after I had to sell my iPad and old cell phone for money when I needed it desperately. I was very nervous to log into the site on my actual phone but here I am.

Like I said, Peony is such a hard song to find anymore on YouTube since YouTube Red rolled out a few years back. Asriel's music in general is harder to find since then. In addition to YouTube Red or Premium these days, Asriel also disbanded and Kokomi (vocalist) began a solo project named Misliar. Her music with Misliar isn't much different from her time with Asriel. She's definitely grown as a vocalist and has done more experimentation with sound from the songs that I have heard between both bands but her music is still amazing no matter which band she is with.

---------- Post added at 05:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:03 PM ----------

@Terminator101 use Google Translate to translate Peony from English to Japanese. Copy and paste the Japanese characters into YouTube search along with Asriel and it'll literally be the first video! I cam't believe I didn't think to try this sooner.

I guess that we all miss Tewi. She was a good friend to all. For a while after she had left, I was thinking about Nelly Furtado's song "I'm like a Bird" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=roPQ_M3yJTA since she just "Up and flew away" suddenly without a word.
:(

It's a sad thing that Yuimetal, the youngest and cutest member of the group, left BABYMETAL. I guess that in a way, BABYMETAL lost their "Baby". The group has since added more musicians in the band and added backup dancers. They even have dispensed with their previous kawaii image in favor of a darker, bleak image (See informative video -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AQb4CVI9uKk).
:(

Translating "Peony" from English into Kanji had crossed my mind but the thought that the band released the song with an English name and therefore was the best way to go by for searching predominated my mind at the time. Good job on finding that song!

Check out his exciting 1993 live performance in concert of his hit song (IMHO, his best performance - Watch this one if not any other!)-> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=evN6DIGPIJM, an updated 2003 live performance in concert -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VK7Z83UbwKM and a latter performance in 2014 -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e63gBOVfVO4!

Beware! The Mongols chords are coming to invade your homes [With music]! No, I didn't mean "Hordes" instead of "chords". A new Mongolian Heavy Metal band called The Hu (Pronounced "Who") have already conquered some space in YouTube with their unique style of Heavy Metal that is a fusion of Mongolian folk music (Including traditional Mongolian instrument playing and throat singing) and Western Heavy Metal. Check out their hits songs "Yuve Yuve Yu" (Pronounced "You-ve You-ve You") -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v4xZUr0BEfE and "Wolf Totem" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jM8dCGIm6yc both shot in 4K, in breath taking wide open desert locations and with English subtitles. Watch the videos in full screen for the best view. Enjoy! - That's a command, not a request! LOL!
:cool: :D

Not enough fusion music for you? Listen to Batzorig Vaanchig & Auli's song "Hunnu Guren". It's a fusion of Mogolian instrument playing, throat singing, Irish Bagpiping and Latvian Drum playing (Sadly, no English subtitles) -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vztRqe_CHC0. You can still enjoy the melody without knowing what the throat singer is singing about! Some peeps will even "Pop an eye" when they hear Batzorig Vaanchig, the featured Mongolian throat singer, for the first time (Hint: Listen carefully to the sound of his rapid voice, starting at position 1:31 in the video, to get the reference that I just made - Of course, he still has an amazing singing voice to be able to sing all of the song's lyrics rapidly and coherently)!

Thanks for sharing "Hitchcock" by Yorushika, Tewi~! This song kind of reminds me of Rie Fu's "Life is Like A Boat" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7NoPDyOEYkQ in that both girls are reaching out to others for answers to life's questions while knowing that no one really knows the answer, yet hoping that someone at least understands and supports them! This song has a nice beat with the bass guitar and synthesizer in the background that is pleasing and easy listening~!
:)

By contrast, I'm listening to "Manic Monday" by The Bangles -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SsmVgoXDq2w, a song that describes how people are too busy rushing around in their lives to be able to spare any time to think of life's questions!

Been listening to Steve Harley today and have thoroughly enjoyed it !

terminator101

April 5th, 19, 01:00 AM

Hmm ... For some reason Steve Harley's singing style sort of reminds me of Bob Dylan's style of singing with the various sudden pauses in the tempo of the vocals followed by a sudden continuation! I remember listening to one of Bob Dylan's songs (I think it was "Like a Rolling Stone" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IwOfCgkyEj0) from a historical documentary of the sixties (Before my time) as I was listening to Steve Harley's "Make Me Smile (Come Up And See Me)". Something familiar lingered in my mind for a while but I couldn't immediately figure out what it was until it just hit me - It wasn't the singer's voice that sounded familiar but rather the various sudden pauses and continuations of the vocals in the song that "Rang a bell" in my mind~! Thanks for sharing this "Blast from the past" (1970s), true blue!
:cool:

Other songs that I remember hearing from the '70s era, not in a documentary but in an Oldies radio station when I was a little kid, is "Me And You And A Dog Named Boo" by LOBO -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aTbBvPoxUkk and "In the Summertime" by Mungo Jerry -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wvUQcnfwUUM! The first song has soothing, relaxing, easy listening guitar melody that's great for long traveling on the road. The second song has an interesting vocal arrangement - The lead singer's voice sounds like it's more in the background than in the foreground while the backup singers sound like that they're situated up in the front of the recording studio. Also, the lyrics were provocative for their time "... When the weather's fine, you've got women, you've got women, on your mind. Have a drink, have a drive, go and see what you can find. If her daddy's rich, take her out for a meal, if her daddy's poor, just do what you feel, ..." (Also check out lead singer, Ray Dorset's thick and wild Mutton Chops sideburns that was popular in the '60s and '70s - IMHO, it sort of makes him look like a wolf-man)!

Don't worry about that, you're not alone here. The "Dancing" part was just added to this thread's title for dramatic effect~!
:D

The Temples music style with the chorus of four guys singing in unison kind of reminds me of that of famous bands in the '60s (Before my time) like The Beatles (See one of their hit songs "Nowhere Man" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=93rSXA8aeG4 or The Monkees (See one of their hit songs "Last Train to Clarksville" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZcXpKiY2MXE). I remember seeing documentaries about the Beatles and old re-runs of The Monkees' show on TV when I was a little kid.
:)

I see that your taste in music can indeed vary with the Death Metal (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_metal) band Motionless In White! I'm into a little more tamer Metal like Guns N' Roses (See their hits "You Could Be Mine" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QzLBoxtxu4E and November Rain -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8SbUC-UaAxE) or Metallica (See one of their hits "Nothing Else Matters" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tAGnKpE4NCI).
:eek: ;)

Hmm ... The White Stripes video "St. James Infirmary Blues" sort of reminds me of the Stray Cats video "Stray Cat Strut" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vEtbfzMLVWU. Both Rock groups' lead singer sings in a slow tempo that follows a steady musical beat and both videos show clips from vintage cartoons (Betty Boop can be seen in The White Stripes video while some miscellaneous cats from an MGM cartoon [The style of animation looks like something William Hanna and Joe Barbara produced when they worked for MGM in the '40s making the "Tom & Jerry" animated shorts).

Wow, you really are "All over the place" with your tastes in music! I like a variety of music as well. Thanks for sharing~!

Welcome to Diapered Anime, KouCynder~!

Don't worry about it. There are actually many peeps here with the same varied tastes in music. Some of them enjoy music based on soundtracks from anime series, video games as well as TV shows and movies. If browse this thread from the beginning to this current point, you can find them. For example, here are some of the songs that other members have shared with the rest of us that fall into the categories that you mentioned, so you are not alone! See -> here (http://diaperedanime.com/forum/showpost.php?p=2460523&postcount=2), here (http://diaperedanime.com/forum/showpost.php?p=2528843&postcount=26), here (http://diaperedanime.com/forum/showpost.php?p=2602061&postcount=71) and here (See my reply to what drifter 32 shared (http://diaperedanime.com/forum/showpost.php?p=2702662&postcount=86). The Outlaw Star songs, "Hiru no Tsuki" and "Tsuki No le", are both now blocked due to a DRM complaint but you can now listen to them here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H6ojLNsoi0w) and here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sqnDsVEORXY)). Someone even shared a song featuring a Japanese yodeler by the name of Takeo Ischi - The singer had moved to Germany, fell in love with the culture, got married and had kids. See -> here (http://diaperedanime.com/forum/showpost.php?p=2600722&postcount=69)~!

As for myself, I've always enjoyed the opening theme from the Star Trek: TOS movies, "Where No Man has Gone Before" and (Later adapted for) the Star Trek: TNG TV series as "Where No One has Gone Before" written by Alexander Courage. Have a listen to a fan made orchestral symphony of a medley of Star Trek theme songs from Star Trek: TOS, TNG, Voyager and DS9 created by SamoStudios called "Star Trek Epic Symphony: Where No One Has Gone Before" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-SRu_anT0PU

Woah! That takes me back from when I was just a little kid just barely out of diapers (Yeah, I know. It's ironic now that I'm a grown man and I'm going back into diapers! LOL! I remember seeing a lot of "Bell Bottoms" on a lot of the older kids back then. Most peeps here probably don't even know what I'm talking about but you know, right Jaina Senshi?!
:D

There's another classic song that I remember hearing from the Seventies called "Cats In The Cradle" by Harry Chapin -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KUwjNBjqR-c. I enjoy the soothing sounds of the Indian Loot playing in the background -> https://www.soundsnap.com/tags/indian_lute. That instrument leaves a mesmerizing, psychedelic feeling in the room without having to actually get high (Not that I do drugs)! Another classic song but from the Eighties (My time when I was growing up) that make heavy use of the sounds of the Indian Loot (Synthesized) is "Everytime You Go Away" by Paul Young -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nfk6sCzRTbM. Looking back on his music video now, I can see that it looked like he was trying to somewhat dance a combination of the "Hustle" and John Travolta's signature move in "Saturday Night Fever", both holdovers from the Seventies, in the video's beginning part - Go figure!
:cool: :D

Ironically I've had weird Al's parody of that song be my go to one lately the parody song known as '' The Saga Begins '' ...

My favorite Weird Al Yankovic movie theme song parody has to be "Amish Paradise" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lOfZLb33uCg which spoofs "Gangsta's Paradise" by Coolio, the theme for the movie "Dangerous Minds"!

It looks like BTS is following in the footsteps of other successful boy bands of the past like "Backstreet Boys", "New Kids On The Block" and "NSync" with their synchronized, smooth singing voices, synchronized, dance moves and solo member posing throughout their video. It looks like they're now World famous as they performed their hit song on the 2020 MTV Music Video Awards -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zJCdkOpU90g. I wouldn't be surprised if they'll perform in this year's New Year's Eve Ball Drop Celebration at NY's Times Square.

I remember as a little kid hearing this song many times over my dad's car radio back in the late '70s/early '80s as my whole family (Mom, dad and Sis) was traveling on the highways. I was too young back then to understand why the song made me feel sad whenever I heard it. After all, what does a little kid know about the realities of life when they think that they have so many years ahead of them with their family? Now that I've grown older, my parents are gone and my sister has her own family in another state, I fully understand why the melancholy tones of this song strongly grasp at my heart. Life is too short and precious. We should appreciate it as we live and never waste it. I cherish the times, now past, that I had with my family.

It was featured in Rick and Morty Episode 4 Season 1 "M. Night Shaym-Aliens!" (See -> here (https://rickandmorty.fandom.com/wiki/Baker_Street)). Some of the song's lyrics struck a chord in my heart and expresses a longing that I have now that both of my parents are gone: "... You used to think that it was so easy. You used to say that it was so easy. But you're trying, you're trying now. Another year and then you'd be happy. Just one more year and then you'd be happy. But you're crying, you're crying now. ..." I don't want to be sad anymore. I want be happy once again. Perhaps slowly, hopefully, in just one more year ...

Hmm ... I'm not familiar with that band but they sound somewhat similar to other Progressive Rock bands from the '60s and '70s like Yes which most peeps here know for their 1972 hit "Roundabout" that was used as the ending song in the first two parts of the "Jo Jo's Bizarre Adventure" anime series. I actually first heard of Yes in the '80s as a teen for their 1983 hit "Owner of a Lonely Heart" (Skip to pos 02:15 if you just want to hear the song without the extra, non-musical footage that's near the beginning of the video) -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SVOuYquXuuc but by then their music style had switched to a mix of Progressive and Pop Rock or Progressive with Pop Rock elements (Probably to keep up with the changing times).

Hmm ... I've never listened to the "Folk-Punk" genre of alternative music before. It's got an interesting, headbanging, wild beat (Punk rock) and a bit of Country music or '80s to '90s Pop Rock with the electric fiddle in the background - See "The Devil Went Down to Georgia" by The Charlie Daniels Band -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sh7BZf7D5Bw and "Come on Eileen" by Dexy's Midnight Runners -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O_i9t7h8AgY.

I've only been able to watch a few episodes of One Piece in the past, but I remember this song as the first ending song for the original anime series.

That's a fun and interesting drinking song. I haven't heard of many songs from German bands making it here in the US. The last one that I recall was NENA back in the early '80s when MTV and VH1 were starting out. Their memorable, anti-[Cold]war, 1983 hit song was "99 Luftballons" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fpu5a0Bl8eY.

Hmm ... From the English translation of the lyrics (https://lyricstranslate.com/en/wo-sind-die-clowns-where-are-clowns.html), that song has a stark meaning that definitely reflects a need in the current times. Another song that conveys a meaning that comes closest or is similar in meaning is "Send in the Clowns" sung by Frank Sinatra in 1973 -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fOUrnUktTjU. I also recall two songs from the '80s involving clowns but with unrelated meanings: "Cowboys and Clowns" by Ronnie Milsap from the movie "Bronco Billy (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0080472/)" starring Clint Eastwood -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DA7RGxbV9w4 and the ending song from the cult classic, B-movie "Killer Clowns from Outerspace (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0095444/)" by The Dickies -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGVX033PiDA.

If you enjoy "fusion" music involving Celtic sounding music then you'd probably enjoy "Hunnu Guren" by Batzorig Vaanchig & Auli -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vztRqe_CHC0. It's a fusion of Irish Bagpiping, Mogolian instrument playing, Mongolian [deep] throat singing and Latvian Drum playing. Also, as it appears from your previous posts that you're a fan of Heavy Metal music, you might be interested in checking out the international hit songs (4K videos) from The Hu, a Mongolian Heavy Metal band (See post #136 (https://diaperedanime.com/forum/showpost.php?p=3304109&postcount=136) for more details). I know that this is a rehash of information that I've already posted before but I haven't kept up with the latest trends in Celtic Fusion music or Heavy Metal music from outside of the US, recently.

And now, I'm listening to "Brighton Rock", by Queen. ...

I prefer Queen's later works from the latter 70's/early '80s like "We are the Champions" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04854XqcfCY, "Another One Bites the Dust" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rY0WxgSXdEE and "Under Pressure" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a01QQZyl-_I

Now listening to "The Six Teens", by The Sweet ...

Ah, to be sixteen again when life was free of the problems and worries of adulthood. ... On an unrelated note, I remember listening to "You're Sixteen You're Beautiful (And You're Mine)" by Ringo Starr (The drummer in the Beatles) -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ainB6qnWBI playing over the radio in my dad's car.
:)

Anyway, I'm trying to figure out how to solve my life's current problems as I listen to "Only Solutions" by Journey playing in the background -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LtywNeF8dCM - Fun fact: The song was on the OST from Disney's 1982 movie, TRON (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0084827/). Check out the extended music video with clips from the final cut and during the production shooting of the movie -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Np2yzdUD1NM).

This song is somewhat apropos, as I have no filter. I just sorta blurt stuff out, when it comes to my life, since I really don't care. I wouldn't do this with friends, but me, personally?

I don't mind what people may think of me.

EDIT: Side note, I always felt like this is exactly the sort of band Gilda (From MLP:FIM) would start if she were a punk rocker. It just sorta fits, for me.

And now listening to this. A song even the artist doesn't recall recording. Because he was zonked on drugs and alcohol. I present to you, a song from Alice Cooper's 'Black Out Era': https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YEd_lsvAzvU

It's morbid, but I enjoy listening to this while drinking sometimes. It's a very dark album, but there's something to be gained by learning from the mistakes of others. Which is why, I suppose, I shine a light on my own faults and failings.

I don't want anyone else making the same mistakes I did.

I didn't say anything earlier, but I've heard a lot of the bands you've previously mentioned. I would have to vehemently disagree, though. I prefer the more fantasy-focused/mystical style of Queen. 'Queen II' is my favorite album of theirs.

Saying that, everything they make is great. So, you really can't go wrong. But, hey? Since I have a preference for seventies rock, why don't I shine my bias a bit brighter?

Currently listening to "Love Is Like Oxygen", by "The Sweet". My favorite song of theirs: ...

It's okay to disagree. Like the old saying goes "There are different strokes for different folks". There's no "Right" or "Wrong" answer here. This thread was created so that the members here can share the music that they enjoy with the rest of our community. I remember listening to "Life is Like Oxygen" as a young kid in the seventies along side other songs like "Magic" by Pilot -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MzlK0OGpIRs and "Fly Like An Eagle" by The Steve Miller Band -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WuXwSyahgW4. And yes, I agree that you really can't go wrong with songs made by Queen.
;)

... I wish nothing but the best for you. You can make it through this, I know. We are of a stauncher breed. We can weather this. I believe in you, man.

Here's something from an anime/band I like to encourage you:
...

Thank You so much for your support~! I'm still trying to cope with the loss of both of my parents and how I can continue to live on without them. On some days, the struggle is greater than on others, depending upon how frequently during a given day/night that my thoughts drift towards thinking about them while I try to concentrate with going about what I need to do for daily living. These last two months have been difficult for me with Mother's Day in May and Father's Day which just passed on Sunday, June 19th. Those holidays have hit me harder now than in the previous three years probably because I think that I'm finally getting over the shock phase of grief and the reality of both my parents' deaths is starting to hit my subconcious mind more than ever (I'm finally starting to enter the acceptance phase of grief). I can forsee that it will really take a while (A few more years?) for me to manage my grief. Only those who have already gone through or are going through what I'm going through can truly understand my pain.
:(

With anime songs like "I Think I Can" by The Pillows from FLCL to encourage us, I'm sure that ultimately in the game of life, "We will Win" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xvbR92b8NXA. I think that Reba West (https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0286925/) did a great job staying in the character voice of Lin MinMei/Minmay while she sang, considering the fact that she is a voice artist and not a singer by profession.

... And now I am listening to a metal rendition of Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata (The third movement/allegro bit. I had to double check before posting):

(Actually, it may be more of an agitato.I'm not great at this classification of classical music thing. So please, bare with me.)
...

Cool! From the video, it looks like Tina S. has a real "feel" for her electric guitar and Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata (3rd Movement). Since you're a "Seventies" kind of guy while I'm mainly more of an "Eighties" kind of guy with a little toe in the "Seventies" and a finger on the latest pop music (I try to keep an open mind to all forms of music), you'll probably also appreciate as I do, Walter Murphy's 1976 twist on classical music, "A Fifth Of Beethoven" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4MFbn8EbB4k.

And this next one hits really close to home. I used hard drugs a very long time ago. Saw my brother stab his couch with a katana, because he thought there were spies living under it:
...

It's a clitchi, but my best advice to just say 'no'. Cocaine can be fun for a bit, but it makes you mental. You will lose your mind over it.

Hmm ... I wonder if "One Way Ticket" by The Darkness was inspired by AC/DC's 1979 hit song "Highway To Hell" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l482T0yNkeo.

Wow. From what you described that happened with your brother, it sounds more like he used something along the lines of methamphetamine or maybe even LSD. I hope that your brother has fully recovered from his drug abuse by now.
:eek:

Even before the various PSAs that aired on TV in the eighties about "This is your brain on drugs (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LSFaDeRpSHA)", I was already "Scared Straight" by the various educational films shown in the grade school that I attended as a young kid in the seventies, about what regular [cigar/cigarette] smoking does to people's lungs - I remember seeing a burnt out smoker's lung that had holes inside of it (It was missing patches of lung tissue and the remaining lung [scar] tissue that surrounded the missing tissue was pitch black) and the dark blood and yellow pus filled flem that heavy smokers can cough up (There's a very good article with a sobering pictures and a video that illustrates all that I've just said. See -> here (https://www.news24.com/health24/medical/asthma/living-with-asthma/see-this-is-what-your-lungs-look-like-when-you-smoke-20160916)). From that moment on, I decided not to try to smoke or use any kind of drugs. I still drink but in moderation and when I drink it's only during social occassions [Social drinking]. To anyone reading this, my advice about drugs is don't do them. Get high on life instead!

Now listening to "Big Mouth", by "The Muffs" (RIP Kim Shattuck):

This song is somewhat apropos, as I have no filter. I just sorta blurt stuff out, when it comes to my life, since I really don't care. I wouldn't do this with friends, but me, personally?

EDIT: Side note, I always felt like this is exactly the sort of band Gilda (From MLP:FIM) would start if she were a punk rocker. It just sorta fits, for me.

Kim Shattuck's slightly raspy, "Tough girl" voice kind of reminds me of Joan Jett. I remember Joan Jett for her hit song "I Love Rock 'N Roll" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wMsazR6Tnf8.

Aviators - Teeth ...

I wasn't aware that currently there is a furry based anime series like Beastars (https://myanimelist.net/anime/39195/Beastars)! Cool! "Teeth" sounds like a catchy Synth Pop song. When I think of Synth pop, Daft Punk usually comes to mind. My favorite song of theirs is "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gAjR4_CbPpQ. It's one of the songs in the 2001 anime movie "Interstella 555: The 5tory of the 5ecret 5tar 5ystem (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interstella_5555:_The_5tory_of_the_5ecret_5tar_5ys tem)" which has no dialogue and is told entirely through music.
:cool:

And now listening to this. A song even the artist doesn't recall recording. Because he was zonked on drugs and alcohol. I present to you, a song from Alice Cooper's 'Black Out Era': ...

Hmm ... The way in which Alice Cooper's voice fades away followed by a chorus of backup singers in the repetitive lyrics of his 1983 song "Pass the Gun Around" kind of reminds me of the same musical device used in Elton John's 1972 "Rocket Man" song -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DtVBCG6ThDk.

... It's morbid, but I enjoy listening to this while drinking sometimes. It's a very dark album, but there's something to be gained by learning from the mistakes of others. Which is why, I suppose, I shine a light on my own faults and failings.

I don't want anyone else making the same mistakes I did.

Well, you're heart is "in the right place" and that's what's important!
:)

Now listening to this band. This was 'Radio Werewolf's first album:
...

So, bop along to the speed of the bat. I'm banging my head, but please. Don't mind that. ...

Hmm ... I'm not at all into the Nazi(National Socialism)/Neo-Nazi Rock (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_Werewolf#History) or Satanic Rock sub-genres, [Both of which are] considered a part of the "Black Metal (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_metal)" genre but like the old saying goes, "There are different strokes for different folks" and of course, you're free to choose whatever music that you wish to hear.

I don't know whether "The Dickies" are the greatest pop-punk band ever but I did enjoy listening to them perform the theme song for the Killer Clowns cult classic movie. I also enjoy listening to "Green Day". My favorite songs of theirs are "Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CnQ8N1KacJc and "21 Guns" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r00ikilDxW4.

As I reflect upon the past and the current state of my life, I find myself in a somber mood as I listen to Kansas' 1978 hit song, "Dust in the Wind" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tH2w6Oxx0kQ. Even the "Earth and Sky" that the lead singer Steve Walsh sang about won't last forever or even five billion years from now (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Future_of_Earth) ... So I guess that all we can do is to "Live in the moment", plan for (Contradictory as it may sound to the previous quote, though prudent) and "Hope for a better future".

"The Triumph Of The Will" is more a mockery of national socialism, than anything. If you make it to the end, they repeat the line "Oh Eva! Oh Eva! Come sit on my face! Berlin is burning, but we are the master race!".

The joke obviously being that Nazis are hypocritical/closeted deviants. And that they'll delude themselves into thinking everything is fine. Even when everything is burning down around them. It's funny, and not exactly what I'd consider an endorsement of their ideology.

Just so we're clear, I generally oppose all forms of socialism... some social programs to help the poor and disabled are great, but I don't believe in big government. Though, I should probably keep my politics out of this.

Just had to make sure people understood I wasn't advocating for that stuff. In the end, it was the eighties. 'Shock rock' was very popular back then. It was also popular in the seventies, because of artists like Alice Cooper. Who made a song entitled 'Cold Ethyl' for his first ever album as a solo artist.

Oh, and by the way? The musical "Shock Treatment" is highly underrated. It's dated, but by design. I think Richard meant to make it offensive in parts, because it was designed to be a 'sign of the times' sort of deal.

And yet? With this musical, he perfectly predicted the direction of television, and the rise of "Reality TV".

Even though reality tv hasn't reflected us in a fair or neutral way, but then again? I never expected them to.

I'm glad to hear that you don't support National Socialism (Nazism) though there is a lot of controversy surrounding "Radio Werewolf".

For starters, there is controversy with some of their songs like their rendition of Nancy Sinatra's "These Boots Are Made For Walking" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lKVHNaZTmSE which has the sounds of marching, goose stepping, boots in the background (As in during an invasion) as band member Zeena Schreck sings "One of these days these boots will be walking over you." which suggests Nazi Stormtroopers trampling over the backs of their conquered victims. I'm not Jewish but I can see how some people in the Jewish community, especially those that have lived through World War II, might find that offensive, horrific and pro-Nazi rather than as a parody of Nazism.

Next, the name of the band itself "Radio Werewolf" is controversial. Near the end of WWII, "Werewolf" was the name given to the planned Nazi resistance force which would operate behind enemy lines to spread fear and confusion as the Allies advanced through Germany (See -> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Werwolf). "Radio Werewolf" was one of the tools used by Joseph Goebbel's Nazi propaganda machine to attempt to spread fear among the Allied forces about guerilla attacks rumored to be made by the members of Werewolf. By calling themselves "Radio Werewolf", the band may appear to some as supporters of Nazism.

Finally, there was some controversial news in 1988 when one of the band members named "Evil Wilhelm" quit the band stating that he felt their music was being misunderstood by Nazi groups (See sentence beginning as "Though this was denied by the band, Evil Wilhelm quit Radio Werewolf shortly after the 8-8-88 Rally, ..." in the section "History" of the following -> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_Werewolf#History). If Nazi supporters can misunderstand the band as being an advocate of Nazism, it would be easy for those who do not support Nazism to arrive at the same misunderstanding.

Whether Radio Werewolf was or was not really an advocate of Nazism is still open to debate by many people who have listened to their controversial songs. And yes, "Shock rock" was a part of the Eighties as well as other forms of music back then. Like the old saying goes "There is good and bad in everything." For the sake of the future, we can only remain vigilant so that the good overcomes the bad.
https://st.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/blankstare.gif

... Anyway! I am now listening to "The Devil's Trill Sonata, in G Minor", by Tartini:
...

I never studied Classical music but listening to that violin solo piece has a calming effect.
:)

However, I have been exposed to Classical music through feature length movies. One of my favorite works, is composer Richard Strauss' "Also Sprach Zarathustra, Op. 30 (Obertura)" used in Stanley Kubrick's 1968 hit movie "2001: A Space Odyssey (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0062622/)" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vWF1glZWQa8. The score adds depth to the majesty of the movie and ties the events leading to various stages of human evolution perfectly together~!

Even though reality tv hasn't reflected us in a fair or neutral way, but then again? I never expected them to.

I didn't know that they made a sequel to "The Rocky Horror Picture Show (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Rocky_Horror_Picture_Show)". I do know about that cult classic musical but missed watching it - It was famous for Tim Curry's portrayal of the shocking Dr. Frank N. Furter, the space alien, tranvestite, mad scientist. IMHO, "Rocky Horror" did a great job in trying to shock its audience about the reality of things like the fact that there are transvestites in the World which is fine, as the LGBT slogan "We're here. We're queer. Get used to it!" also emphasized. It's too bad that this quasi-sequel didn't "Hold a candle" to its predecessor (Then again, sequels rarely do).

One of my favorite [dramatic] musicals is Andrew Lloyd Webber's "The Phantom of the Opera" starring the original and IMHO, best phantom, Michael Crawford. You can watch his captivating 1986 performance of "The Music of The Night" from "Phantom" at -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d3NIK-nsI2g. It's a bittersweet performance as the Phantom tries to enchant Christine in order to convince her to open up her mind to the possibilities of her, an "Up and coming" opera singer, falling in love with him through the music that he can create with her; despite his disfigurement and his reclusive, homicidal personality. It's bittersweet because he is trying so hard [in vain] to get what he cannot have.:) :( :)

It's just weird. I've had this same argument so many times. People telling me how I couldn't possibly like 'Rage Against The Machine', because I voted for the 'wrong person'.

But, you know? Quoting myself, that wasn't the only band people told me I was weird for liking... based on politics, I mean. I'll try not to insult them anymore, assuming I already have (I probably have).

But these same people also took issue with me liking Pink Floyd... well, while listening to Radio Werewolf, Nikolas Schreck's vocals reminded me of this:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AdzHBpxZWVM

^ "The Trial", by "Pink Floyd".

And the wonderful thing about this, is that I named my self-insert in my "Helluva Boss" stories Pink. So, it's rather funny.

Ja, ja! Meine fruende! Either way, I won't apologize for listening to edgy music. Of course, you didn't ask me for one, so all is well in that regard. It's just weird. I've had this same argument so many times. People telling me how I couldn't possibly like 'Rage Against The Machine', because I voted for the 'wrong person'.

It's actually rather fascinating how closely we tie political affiliation to musical taste. Some say that those who love classic or metal are more inclined towards fascism. It's sorta like the 'Satanic Panic' all over again.

You're an alright guy, Terminator. I don't necessarily agree with the notion of being hyper aware, because I don't believe in 'guilt by association'. But I can see your arguments, and where you are coming from.

Saying this? I am currently listening to the album "Bloody Kisses", by "Type O Negative":

Now listening to one of my favorite recovery songs (I had a few last night). I present to you, "Sento Nel Core", by Scarlatti

The Katamari version:

...

Like I said before, you're free to choose whatever music that you wish to hear. Just keep in mind, for your own sake, that whatever music that you may openly proclaim in public to enjoy might reflect negatively or positively upon your character as people around you might hastily form opinions about you based upon that given music. It's the same with the way that a person may dress - For example, if someone shaved their head and cover their arms with tattoos that depict symbols like a runic SS lightning bolt (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sowil%C5%8D_(rune)#Armanen_runes) or a Celtic Cross (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Celtic_cross#White_supremacy) just because he/she might like the look/fashion even though he/she doesn't necessarily believe in the current ideology behind the symbols, people might inadvertedly think the wrong thing about him/her. Again, I'm not saying that you do that (Have such tattoos) IRL. I was just giving you an extreme case to illustrate my point. On a lighter note, here's a comedic take on that point from "American Dad!" S4E14 (Sans the arm tattos)-> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGZoAeBc3g0.

It's not surprising how some people would tie political affiliation with musical taste. After all, music is just another form of expression of people's (The artists' and his/her/their followers') thoughts. "Some say that those who love classic or metal are more inclined towards fascism." - I haven't heard of that particular idea before but I guess that it's possible for some people to believe that idea. I believe that thought might be limited to isolated cases in history and certain subgenres of metal but not to all fans of classical or metal in general. From what I saw on The History Channel, I know that Hitler enjoyed Wagner's classical music and the fact that the composer himself was anti-Semitic may have lead some to think as you have just described (There is an article about the subject here -> https://www.bbc.com/culture/article/20130509-is-wagners-nazi-stigma-fair. Note: For those who aren't familiar with Richard wagner, he is the composer who created many famous classical music pieces that you may have already unknowingly heard playing in the background of a movie or an animated cartoon, including "Ride of The Valkyries" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GGU1P6lBW6Q. Any one else remember hearing that in the starting sequence of each "New Stage" in the "Satan's Hollow (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C0SmK3yPCqY)" arcade/MAME video game?). But again, those are limited cases in history. However, the thought definitely does apply to fans of certain subgenres of metal like National Socialist black metal (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_metal#National_Socialist_black_metal) or Neo-Nazi Rock (https://www.ojp.gov/ncjrs/virtual-library/abstracts/sounds-hate-neo-nazi-rock-music-germany) but once more IMHO, that thought doesn't necessarily apply to all lovers of classical or metal music in general.

Hmm ... listening to the deep vocals in Type O Negative's "Bloody Kisses" and the instrumental parts in Angel Witch's "Angel Witch" kind of makes me sad that Adult Swim cancelled Metalocalypse (https://www.loudersound.com/news/brendon-small-on-why-adult-swim-cancelled-metalocalypse) - I occassionally enjoyed the dark humor of that animated series. Dethklok's antics kind of reminded me of some of the opening animations that could be seen on the "Monty Python's Flying Circus (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monty_Python%27s_Flying_Circus)" show where limbs and/or other body parts get maimed or cut off of some characters but the characters on Metalocalypse still somehow come back alive, a little bit worse for wear, in subsequent episodes. I guess that for me, watching it was like an outlet for releasing stress.
;)

Hmm ... "Sento nel core", an opera song, in a video game? It makes the game's ending sound melodramatic. I've never played the Katamari series of video games released by Bandai Namco though.
:confused:

But, you know? Quoting myself, that wasn't the only band people told me I was weird for liking... based on politics, I mean. I'll try not to insult them anymore, assuming I already have (I probably have).

But these same people also took issue with me liking Pink Floyd... well, while listening to Radio Werewolf, Nikolas Schreck's vocals reminded me of this:

...

^ "The Trial", by "Pink Floyd".

And the wonderful thing about this, is that I named my self-insert in my "Helluva Boss" stories Pink. So, it's rather funny.

Now listening to a cover of the "Mirai Nikki" opening, by Pellek and Raon Lee:

...

I should probably warn you that 'Mirai Nikki' is a very fucked up anime. I am not perfect, but even I know when 'Wrath' and 'Lust' go too far. This anime is not for the faint of heart.

Now listening to "Funeral For A Friend/Love Lies Bleeding", by Elton John:

...

If you think that you're crazy, just remember that we live in a "Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World! (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0057193/)" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZoLhuRp5IjM so, you may just be an "Average Joe". As a young kid, I enjoyed watching a re-reun on TV of that classic comedy movie (It has a lot of slapstick bits in it). It was also nice to see The Three Stooges, three masters of slapstick humor, appear in a cameo in that movie -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LOfsNiQxfAo. And yes, it's possible that French Toast really originated from Germany (Among other possible European origins)-> https://frenchly.us/why-is-french-toast-french/.
:D ;)

Wow! Both PelleK and Raon Lee are very impressive! For many non-Japanese people, it's already hard enough to learn how to speak Japanese much less sing in the language at a professional sounding level in a duet with another non-Japanese person. I've never heard the anime's opening song as sung by the original artists who performed it so as to make a fair comparison (I've never seen "Mirai Nikki") but still, this looks like an amazing feat! You can almost feel the power of the singers' voices emanating towards you as they belt out the lyrics! Kudos to them both!
:cool:

I don't know of any other modern, famous singer who was able to successfully blend two seperate songs of his own creation into one long one (Unlike Mashup (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mashup_(music)) songs created from two different artist's works) but I guess that's Elton John for you!
;)

Now listening to a 'Playlist For Villains' some fellow on Youtube created. If you like classical, chances are you'll like this: ...

I prefer to listen to various Classical works used in movies like John Boorman's 1981 hit "Exclaibur (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082348/)" that tout the heroes -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0JNlOTccdck&list=PLNZZX00l3yr5okt0vnJQJcs8ldrDyAlg3. You can watch the entire cinematic masterpiece here (https://jexmovie.com/watch_Excalibur_1981.html#video=ryqtAbbwi53fWJtfpP i-9bjaGhADXzePcJT0CIpw). It's a shame that Orion Pictures, the same studio that also released the Robocop (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0093870/?ref_=ttfc_fc_tt), Robocop 2 (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0100502/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1), Robocop 3 (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0107978/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1) and of course, The Terminator (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0088247/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1), went bankrupt. We can only wonder what other great movies might have been released if that studio was still around.

Anyway, Life goes on so I'm listening to "The Way it is" by Bruce Hornsby & The Range -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cOeKidp-iWo.
