Favourite Music

[xKatiexBellx]

I haven't seen any music boards around here! What is your favourite music, I love the Grease Soundtrack... not saying I like oldies very much. The Nora Jones C.D. is pretty good... I like the Barenaked Ladies as well! I like a lot.;) Actually, I just got a new C.D. and it's like, the only one that i like where the singers end up screaming at one point...

[Fleurdelacour]

Wohoo! Norah Jones! :hug:

As many fo you know, I'm a huge Norah Jones fan, but I do have other music loves.

Coldplay, and Will Young!

However, my favourite song of all time is El Tango De Roxanne :swoon: It's on the Moulin Rouge soundtrack, and it's a masterpiece!

I love all genres of music, jazz, soul, indie, rock, whatever! Apart from hip-hop and dance....

[Fleurdelacour]

You've been told about me? at this point, I am scared Ooh by who? ;) I hope it was good!

Welcome to the MI by the way! :hug: :D

Amberion :wave: :wave: :wave: at KxB

I was at the meet last June


I like the Arrogant Worms

The Mountie Song
When I was a kid I wanted to grow up and be cop in a province town or county
I thought it would be great if someday I could only ever be a mountie
I wanted to beat up crooks and make arrests because that's part of the profession
But now I sit on my horse and tell American tourists the Parliament's in session
I really don't look good in red and my stupid hat flies off my head in every parade
I'm young and strong and have no fear but now I'm spending my career in motorcades
I wanna enforce the law, I wanna wear normal clothes
I don't wanna have to smile for diplomats' home videos
I good at working real hard, I should have joined the coast guard
Oh no, the RCMP
Is not the life for me
I used to think that a mountie had to be honest, loyal, humble, strong and thrifty
But even though we don't break ranks, we get no thanks, they took us off the fifty (dollar bill)
On Sussex Drive in hallowed halls we act like guards in shopping malls, it's such a pain
Like someone's plotting the assassination of the Minister if Sports and Recreation, oh that's insane
Sometimes I just want to puke on Sergeant Preston of the Yukon, Dudley Do-Right's such a jerk (Damn you, Snidely)
And though he tries with all his heart, my horse couldn't catch a shopping cart, some days I hate to go to work
I wanna enforce the law, I wanna wear normal clothes
I don't wanna have to smile for diplomats' home videos
I good at working real hard, I should have joined the coast guard
Oh no, the RCMP
Is not the life for me
Bill: Hey, Chester, come over here.
Chester: What's that, Bill?
B: Look what I found over here.
C: Oh, he's one uh them there beefeaters gonna do changin' uh the guard, tell us all about Charles, Diana, Camilla Parker-Bowling-Ball, 'n the li'l horsey guy..
B: Nuh-uh, we ain't in England, were in, uh, Canaida
C: Canaida? Can- he's a hockey player.
B: No, he's a mountie.
C: A mountie! Hey mountie, mountie, sing the mountie song.
Mountie: The mountie song?
B: Yeah, from the movie.
C: Yeah, you know, I'm a mountie, I'm a mountie
M: Oh, okay. (Sings) It's a world of laughter, a world of tears, it's a world of hope, it's a world of-
B: No, no, When Ah'm Callin' You,
M: Oh, right, yeah, okay. fine (Sings) When I'm calling you...
B: That's it. Higher, higher.
M: Higher? Okay (Sings higher) When I'm calling you...
C: Higher, higher. Think more north.
M:(Sing in falsetto) When I'm calling you...
B: You suck.
C: Yeah, you're a crummy mountie. You know, we came all the way from Buffalo, New York, an' that's a long way from Canada. We wanna see ourselves Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver, maybe Regina, Saskatoon, maybe Halifax this afternoon iffen we got time. We wanna see ourselves a real mountie, an' a real Eskimo, an' a real igloo. We're gonna buy a soapstone carving. We're gonna take a shower with it by the light of the northern lights!
M: You listen here, Yankee punks, you'd better back off 'cause I've got a gun here and I'm not afraid to use it, so...
B: Ooh, he's got a gun.
C: Ooh, he's gonna squirt us.
B: Yeah, he's got one gun.
M: Yeah, well, how many guns do you got?
B: I got ten.
C: I got fourteen, that's twenty-
B&C: One.
M: Well, where do you keep that many guns?
C: In our tank.
M: You have a tank?
C: Well, we didn't walk here y'know.
M: Well, where would you get a tank?
B: Wal-mart.
M: Oh.
I wanna enforce the law, I wanna wear normal clothes

[xKatiexBellx]

lol, yes, tapestry (tapestree?:confused: ) is my mom, she goes crazy over the arogant worms, I like the Gaelic song:LOL:

[Amberion]

I think you have me to blame for that:D

[xKatiexBellx]

:LOL: Oh well, my mom has a lot of their c.d.s *:trout: s the c.d.s* too bad...:o

[Elfëa]

Hmm... favorite music? I vary from classical to metal! :p

Fave bands at the moment:

Nightwish
HIM
Linkin Park
Coldplay

I like Robbie Willims greatly, and Savage Garden and loads Finnish bands you probably haven't go any clue about :p

[sirius2004]

right now i'm big on E.S. Posthumus, Evanescence, Toybox, System of a Down and Gary Jules :-D i'm not random...i SWEAR!!

[Amberion]

Katie - which ones did she get?

i have

W-w-worms
Live Bait
C'est cheese
Dirt
Idiot Road

Just wish I could find a shop in Adelaide that will sell their albums:(

[alqua]

I like to listen to Nightwish too.

I also absolutely adore both of the LotR soundtracks and I like Enya's music a lot.

[xKatiexBellx]

I couldn't find all of my moms arrogant worms c.d.s all i could find was c'est cheese and dirt.:)

[StarGazr]

Let's see, as far as favorites go... Billy Joel, Celine Dion, Train, Matchbox Twenty, Enya, Alanis Morrissette, Garth Brooks... those are my all time favorites that I could listen to at any given moment of any given day...
I have very ecclectic tastes... one minute I could be listening to hard rock, and then the next moment I could pop in a country CD or classical music like Mozart... I LOVE MUSIC!! I always have it on! I'm a soundtrack nut too... LOOOOVE Moulin Rouge soundtrack and the score to Titanic.... I just love music!

[Xazinon]

Music eh?

I'm probably a bit like StarGazr as far the eclectic bit goes: I do tend to like a lot of things, though most of it seems to be from the 60s/70s/80s: older stuff. Can't really say I'm very fond of techno/dance music. *shudder*

I like stuff like the Eagles, Eric Clapton, Bon Jovi, Crowded House, Bob Dylan... I am actually a very big fan of blues, and would probably consider that my favourite genre of music. :)

I've got all three of the Blues Brothers' CDs, I have, which I think is a case in point. (love the movie too!) :D

They had an International Music and Blues Festival here in Melbourne in February: featuring Bob Dylan, Ray Charles, Tony Joe White and heaps of others. And I gotta say, despite some set-up problems, it was absolutely EXCELLENT! :cool: :notworthy:
Ray Charles is one amazing guy, too!

Well, there we go. I've rambled again, oh well! Yay music! :)

[Colli]

I'm a soundtrack lover, although I do have a lot of different stuff, including some classical, some pop, some :eek: rap.

Soundtracks: Shrek, Moulin Rouge 1, Moulin Rouge 2, Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers, Phantom of the Opera, Cats, etc. :D

Then there's Enrique Iglesias, Celine Dion, some classical stuff, Third Eye Blind and Savage Garden from AGES ago...

[Fleurdelacour]

Is anyone weird like me and carry a minidisc player or something around with them, and with it all your favourite songs stored on it? Then for each mood you're in you play that song so it sort of becomes a soundtrack for your life...?

For example, when I arrived in Paris (via Eurostar) once I got off the train, I played Compliment La Butte from the Moulin Rouge soundtrack, and that song was used when Christian first came to Paris via train :)

[xKatiexBellx]

I do that!

[Amberion]

Amb hides all his compilation tapes


No I dont do that - no sirree

[swiftsnowmane]

I am currently on a Loreena Mckennitt kick.....she is a goddess! That is all I have to say.:notworthy :swoon: :notworthy :swoon:

My other fav's include: Gaelic Storm, Josh Groban, U2, LotR Soundtrack(s), MR and R+J soundtracks, Bjork, Enya, Phantom of the Opera, Riverdance, a myriad other movie and Broadway musical soundtracks, and sometimes Red Hot Chili Peppers when I'm in the mood.:D (There is a lot more, but I'm tired so i just listed absolute favorites):)

[Winky the house elf]

Winky(house elf) saying HI:D . My favorite musicions are Evanesence:) Out of all their songs my favorite song is Bring Me To Life:swoon: .

[StarGazr]

Hi Winky! Welcome to the MI forums... hope you find everything you're looking for.. if you need any help, just yell for a Mod and we'll come scrambling... or something like that ;)
I already ran down my list of music I like, but I forgot to say that my two favorite soundtracks (due in part to parental influence over the years) are American Graffiti and Forrest Gump. Very very excellent, if you're into that kind of music.

[alqua]

Hi there Winky! I hope you'll enjoy our company :hug:

You can check out the Infromation Booth for more information about these forums. :)

[xKatiexBellx]

Hey winky!:hug: :wave:

hehe, I used to listen to Californication every morning driving to uni in the darkness, really it was the only way I found not to fall asleep and crash, only I arrived for my geometry class a bit TOO awake :D

Bebop (blues and jazz in general too) is my favourite genre at the moment, but I listen to lots of different bits, especially because I don't want to buy CDs so I rely on the radio.

FlaurD I was wondering, do you like tango in general? or just the Roxanne tango-version one? just wondering because I kind of like tango.

[Xazinon]

Wellll, I'm not FleurD, but I wanted to say something about tango anyways, hehe! :)

What I've heard of tango I like, but I can't say as I have heard much of it. I would love to be able to dance the tango though: that would be excellent!

What can I say? I'm a bit of a romantic, and the tango is one sexy dance! Yay tango! :)

[qleap]

If you're any interested then you might like the movie Tango (http://us.imdb.com/Title?0120274) (MPAA rating: PG-13). Well I only watched at the cinema years ago so I don't really remember it well... as far as I remember there wasn't any "proper" plot (so I understand people's comments "I walked out the cinema there was no story to follow"), cinematography was really good, and basically, what you get is just tango. So if you get easily bored watching people dancing no, this is not for you ;) I remember there was something I didn't like more or less at the end but, well I can barely remember my name so this is all I can say :D What I DO know is the soundtrack since I listen to it quite often (amazing, a CD I actually bought :D)
Tango: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack on Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B00000I0DI/qid=1049762846/sr=8-1/ref=sr_8_1/102-1698120-9288163?v=glance&s=music&n=507846)
You can listen to some samples there.

[Colli]

A few weeks ago I went to see some Argentinians tango for nearly 3 hours... it was terribly boring so my friend and I left about 90 minutes in. :o I like Roxanne though. :D

[Fleurdelacour]

Oh El Tango De Roxanne! :swoon: :notworthy

there is a dance! In the brothels of Bueno Aries! :swoon:

[xKatiexBellx]

My mother goes crazy over El Tango De Roxanne.:rolleyes: and from the looks of things, you do to :trout: but i guess i should know that by now:D

[Fleurdelacour]

lol, yes :D I'll be in Paris this time two weeks! :swoon: :D

Please, believe me when I say I looove youuu!!

That might be the best bit ;) :notworthy

[qleap]

FleurD YOU talked SO much about it that I ended up renting MR DVD to watch it again the other day :D
Gosh I'd forgotten how great it was! Definitely the movie I liked best at the time it came out (YES, more than FOTR ;) )

[Fleurdelacour]

yay! :D :hug:

You can become an obsessed bohemian now! Next thing, you'll find yourself outside the real moulin rouge in paris, singing with your mother...

Thanks, qleap: I didn't get a chance to check out the Amazon link until yesterday, but the music seemed pretty good! A whole movie just of people dancing huh? Hmmm, you're right, I might find that a bit boring. Nothing wrong with the soundtrack though! :)

[StarGazr]

*Bounding into the room... tripping over her robes and landing on her rear... staning up and dusting herself off...* YES! I am hyper, and I'm on this great cough medicine that's just making me feel like I'm on cloud nine... weeeeeeee...
OK, so, I got my new CD in the mail... Norah Jones "Come Away With Me" and let me just say how AWESOME this CD is. She is amazing... like nothing I've heard before. I love all kinds of music.. she is something else. She's got this jazz sound mixed with pop and... something else... not sure. If you haven't heard her yet... get your butt somewhere and listen!! If you're gonna download only one song, go with "Don't Know Why" or "Come Away With Me"... they're the best. She's sooo awesome!!...
Gotta go to work! BYE!

[lithorose]

lith fears for anyone that has to work with Stargazr in her present condition.:rolleyes:;)



:hug: get better soon!

[Fleurdelacour]

Ooh another Norah fan! :D

It's not a condiction lith! ;)

[lithorose]

I refer to the cough syrup. I've never heard Norah Jones. Is she really pop-ey?

[StarGazr]

Tee hee... I survived work... the medicine had worn off by then and I was fine... only tripped over a kid once.. but that was because he had thrown himself down on the floor in a fit of rage... not my fault!
Norah Jones is... well she's more Jazz-y then Pop-y... she's really good...

[xKatiexBellx]

:P:P I've been listening to the song "Ride" from the Vines a lot lately. I also just got the Moulin Rouge C.D. (:swoon: ) and I really, really like the song Diamond Dogs... I also like the Black Eyed Peas... their new C.D. Elephunk is strangely amusing

[Chelsea Kai]

I got the Keane CD and I feel so chill when I listen to it. I feel like swaying a lighter above my head.

[LuthienElentari]

I have recently begun to engage myself in some Dido and Keane stuff. Right now my collection of rock/angsty music is hurting my head. I find Dido and Keane music a nice resort away from all those Peter Parker/angst bands I own.

[Chelsea Kai]

I just got this CD by this band called Harry and the Potters! It's so funny. Thye have all Harry Potter inspired songs. Way cool.

[LuthienElentari]

We've got to save Ginny Weasley from the Basilisk... *hums to self* We've got to save the school from that unseen horror!

[Fleurdelacour]

Keane!! I met Tim Rice-Oxley who writes all the songs and plays the piano... He's wonderful. I saw them at V2004 and at cduk in July (which was where I met him) I'm seeing them again on the 17th November.

Yeah... I kinda love them :swoon: Espeically Tim!

Also going to see Franz Ferdinand next month on the 30th :) Can't wait!

[Chelsea Kai]

Oooh! Franz Ferdinand! I think they came to town a few days ago.

[lithorose]

Current favorite band, hands down, is.... O-Zone. Yep, the Numa Numa people. Amazing that I could even get the CD (than YOU red-dot terminals!@! :cloud9: ).

And I hate pop, so why I like this, I have no idea...

Oh, and if you've seen the music videos, those boys can't dance!:LOL:

[SiriusBlack]

My favorite music is so DAUGHTRY. I am as Daughtry Obsessed as it gets. I love Chris Daughtry, he is so talented, it is crazy. I <3 Chris.

With Love <3

[xKatiexBellx]

Holy cheese I didnt remember this thread existed lol.

O-zone is pretty cool, but Dragostea Din Tei is the only song I know them for :P

...never heard of Daughtry :S


at this point in time my favourite music can be sorted into a list of about 100 bands LOL... I really like the Smashing Pumpkins, Nirvana<3, Garbage, Beck, Cake and Coldplay. OH and Nine Inch Nails, they're the greatest <333. And Muse. And Moby and Metallica....

errrr I really like a lot of music :P
