One of the best voices of the 60s seems to still have it:

Jay Black

Well, mostly anyway...

God help me. I Mean, seriously, God freakin' help me. I think I like Mock Rock:

But I'm not as bad as this guy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y73FIriy ... ed&search=

Great song though - speakers turned up full volume a must.

[edit: the real artist doing that song (which doesn't look that much better, really): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MHIAZUxl ... ed&search=

Golden Brown - The Stranglers

Destiny - Zero 7

Food for Thought - UB40

All You Good, Good People - Embrace

Amsterdam - Coldplay

Rush of Blood to the Head - Coldplay

Warning Sign - Coldplay (great non-Coldplay clip for this track. Need to watch it to the end, tho.)

(one of these days I'll figure out what I'm doing wrong with the URL thing...)

Edit: well, bloody hell! When you put your little hand cursor over the URL icon, after the two backslashes it has the letters "url," which I was including at the end of every link! Thanks, C.

None of you have any taste in music whatever. This is the stuff of music legend:

I'm trying to decide if Tiny Tim was more like Frank Zappa, or Marilyn Manson.

Genius is born when an individual learns to survive efficiently, when things become toys - of the mind.

I think that's why my eyes glaze over when I watched those flamenco ladies. They're like low-level clockwork toys with only one parameter. Music is far more interesting than dance, because it creates the structure that the dancer is dependent on. Just as a footballer is less interesting than the rules of football as expressed in a game.

In another thread (What's the Dalai Lama trying to do?), Kelly Jones wrote:
Mahayana means going all the way. It is the surest, hardest, most Truth-oriented path, and it does not settle for piddling bypaths.
It is in that spirit, I'm quite sure, that ICP says Let's Go All the Way.

I can't believe this, no Iron maiden? The band that never relied on love songs, the band that has the best frontman in metal. Something is very wrong here. Time for the best. Enjoy.

Here is some good music... (soundtrack)

http://www.esposthumus.com

You can listen there. You can also download all the tracks from their server (though I don't think they want you to) as some flash searching reveals this:

Here this is pretty different, it's like Indian prog pop or something. I think it's pretty cool. High energy!

Jazz/rock fusion band Return to Forever. High energy! A little more refined, though.

Ocean of Noise - Melody and lyrics kind of seem beyond happiness and sadness. I suppose you can say it's a bit lugubrious, but I don't sense much self pity. It has a strange beauty to it.

King Crimson - starless

^ awesome riff - - takes you into a really pure, childlike sort of feeling, which is the best that a sincere artist can do I guess.

And now, something a little more high energy......and retarded:

The darkness. I think(hope) these guys are consciously trying to do a parody.

^ On you tube it sounds like there are some pretentious indie twerps indignant about this, which makes it all the funnier (they might appreciate it's ingenuity if they realized it's written all in palindromes, expect for 'harmonica solo')
