charon 4,938 Posted May 24, 2018 ^^ always reminded me of early Simple Minds stuff. Anyhoo. Lyrically this changed over the years, but by fuck they look young. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also find it mildly amusing (and, credit to you, intriguing) that a 'Summer 2018' playlist would consist of songs that are largely 40+ years old 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I try to be as open minded in my music as possible, so I try to listen to a lot of stuff, even if there are some artists that certain people say are uncool to listen to. And yes, I do enjoy a lot of older music... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's quite refreshing to see someone of your age listen to music released when my dad still lived in a ballsack, rather than what Calvin Harris put his wretched fucking name to this afternoon... Though I stand by my (unpopular) view that The Beatles are litter. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joey Russ 7,119 Posted May 26, 2018 Alan Bean's death reminded me of this great song today: Yeah, I know that it's about Andy Kaufman, but it's still a great song... EDIT: I'm listening to the album again and it reminds me on how good it is... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Dead Cow 620 Posted May 26, 2018 I'm enjoying some of the solo work of Mark Mulcahy (of Miracle Legion and Polaris) at the moment, a criminally underappreciated singer and songwriter in my opinion. Of his solo career his album Fathering is quite excellent, though I think my favourite solo song of his would be this one, predominantly because of the french horn.

It might be that I'm biased because my username has "bleach" in the middle, but I love their work. The Bends is perfect for zoning out to on a train in the middle of the night. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just got to Nightswimming in my full listen of the album, and I agree that it's a superb song, along with the rest of the album (even Everybody Hurts is a great song despite it being overplayed). Apparently John Paul Jones of Led Zeppelin helped with Nightswimming's orchestral arrangement, not something I'd guess on first listen... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deathray 2,933 Posted May 26, 2018 Not so much listen as watch in awe. Queen at Wembley 1986. Haven't watched this video for years and it's one of those videos that just leaves you standing aghast, the way Freddie Mercury interacts with the crowd is astonishing and it's one of the best Queen set-lists you could ever wish to see, as is the crowd participation. There's an absolutely incredible bit in the middle which is just him getting the crowd to sing nonsense back to him (well vocal exercises, but it sounds like nonsense), only he could pull it off in quite that fashion and get so many involved. I now know where I'm going if I ever come across a time machine and some covers of a few rock classics....
