Question

The Music Thread

Share some of your favorite songs, artists, ideas, creations, etc.

Here's mine...


I'm a huge fan of The Metal but I think I'll start with some of my legendary, less angry, favorites.

Probably my favorite band of all time across all genres is Primus. I've seen them live twice, and I've seen Les Claypool live in his solo act once.

It all started with "Jerry was a Race car driver"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LBQ2305fLeA


For those who don't know Les, fun fact: he once audition for Metallica and they denied him based solely on the fact that he is far too damn good for them.

I've seen tons of bands live (Slayer, Megadeth, Sepultura, Napalm Death, Cannibal Corpse, Korn, System of a Down, Pantera, Slipknot, Lamb of God - to name a few). But Primus is the band that showed me first hand the largest mosh pit I've ever seen, and it was to this mighty cute song:

A few thousand people went ape shit at the 1:37 mark.


I hold in high regard just about everything Claypool releases; if I had to pick a favorite song it is simply, Here Come The Bastards

    I've had 3 huge KPOP Parties now in PokerStars VR. It really set off the Macau atmosphere alive and kicking and we weren't merely messing around. With only 2 or 3 exceptions from Players (averages just 1 in 8) whom wished to MUTE it and try to persuade others to do the same but failed then left LOL! I followed one of them as he left the table after he called it all "white girl trash" and shouting how can we listen to that. His actual pic was proof of his adolescence and inferiority complex to the opposite sex. I mean, if you portrayed yourself as a tough straight guy then why would you say it's gay to listen to highly sexy slim Asian dancers with great fresh music? He was shocked I was in the lobby still playing it and he only wanted either Metal (boy-bands I also like as it happens but I opened my eyes) and aggressive angry Rap. It reminds me of how much these shy boys pretend they like girls but just to ogle at and can't hold a conversation with let alone bare listening to them Sing/Dance!

    Nobody knew where this music was from until pointed out it was KPOP and then the comments were mostly "it's really good turn it up!" and "I like this music it's really happy!". Metal is there as a release of negative emotion and serves being a repressed teenager. Growing up should mature your musical horizons too. It's only healthy to have music which uplift you and let go. All that head banging looks mental in your 40s. You see, I'm not anti-Metal. I grew up on it! I didn't totally abandon it either. I just discovered music which has been waiting to come out of a country slaved by the Martial Law Decree of Government which controlled their media until the 90's. Whilst they listened to the underground music of the West, we basically had the exact same to us by not having their music released on our turf! We have missed out on 2 fantastic decades of quality POP music. Most of the acts have disbanded now but those decades are well worth publicity. It has a history of development in the competitive world of a controlled media and it certainly competes.

    Well the mystery unravels...Do you know who the featured dancer is in Psy's GANGNAM STYLE appearing halfway?
    She even went on to make her own version soon after. She's a singer, song writer, dancer, and a model!
    So who is the hot girl in the Gangnam Style music video?
    He has selected the most hottest girls from many groups to work with.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9bZkp7q19f0

    GANGNAM STYLE version by Hyuna
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wcLNteez3c4

    Yup, that's Hyuna! Remember if it wasn't for the song ABRACADABRA by Brown Eyed Girls then none of his success would have been to as high acclaim. Now she's under his new management company. She has been in all affect the Turnkey for the success of KPOP to spread the globe!

    Queen of KPOP Hyuna with her solo act...
    RED (the opening image of looking at whipped monkey's arse will need washing out by the next track!)
    Chorus: "A monkey’s butt is red, Red is Hyuna, what? Hyuna is yeah" :p

    The other Queen of KPOP also currently waiting to come back again in US market (these are previous US releases)
    HELLO BITCHES by CL (ex-leader of 2NE1) 
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8o4Zj98FeX4

    LIFTED by CL (ex-leader of 2NE1) 
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mr29X77OA5g

    Then there's the voice-over in Psy's DADDY featuring CL - "Hey, where'd you get that body from?"
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FrG4TEcSuRg

    Here's DOPENESS by Black Eyed Peas featuring CL - "Aye, yo, baby I'm super duper, super dope!"
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M-p4B6PIRrI

    Of all the hype about both CL and Hyuna being ditched by management, they simply ran out of their 10yr contracts and they weren't renewed. The US is now their goal for continued success and to break the chains for a better life of freedom not totally enslaved by an agency.
    I was woken up last night when on the TV I heard of a KPOP Scandal in America of a selfie sex-tape. I was all excited to then find out it was just a lad LOL!

    A slight diversion...

    I came across this song recently when looking up ways to help deal with sleep deprivation,



    But what I found instead of calmness... is a ton of laughter due to the comments section on YouTube:

    this helped calm my explosive diarrhea

    I let my dog hear this and now she’s a unicorn

    I'm going to leave this song on while I sleep. If I don't edit this comment in the next 10 hours, that will mean I've transcended.

    So I’ve been sleeping peacefully for the past 7 months, what have I missed?

    this tune is perfect for my everyday 10hour power nap

    I set this song as my alarm and accidentally put myself into an infinite loop for two weeks until my family found me

    VOLUME UP by 4Minute (Hyuna) only sounds good extremely loud. Lovely sexy Soprano Sax intro, then amazing vocals from Hyuna which get stronger and higher, into the Chorus with a massive thumping beat. Then you realise it has totally no bass line and doesn't need it when maxed out hehe!!!
