what are you listening to?
On the way into Madison I was listening to the Dead Kennedys' "Give Me Convenience, or Give Me Death". On the way back I was listening to a radio station (Charlie FM-- one which plays a more or less random assortment of former hit songs).
Right now, just whatever sounds happen to come through the window. (Living at my parents place, I don't want to have to try to explain my really wide and eclectic musical interest.

I just got switched on to those guys. They really broke some ground before anybody got that kind of chill on. Remember Cocteau Twins?misfit wrote:portishead-"dummy"

I'm more defined by what I'm acquiring
I'd call the music I like most alternative pop, noise pop and alternative rock, but I listen to other things as well. I've been listening to pandora.com fairly often over the last year and have found a bunch of new groups that I love. I also have a bunch of older stuff I still love.
I don't have a lot of free funds for music, so a lot of my acquisitions are from trading cds on lala.com. I've been picking up releases by:
Agent Sparks
Citizens Here And Abroad
The High Violets
The Grates
Letters To Cleo
The Sounds
Giant Drag
Older stuff I still love listening to include the works of:
The Pixies and spin offs (The Breeders, Frank Black, The Martinis)
Liz Phair
k.d. lang
Devo
Suzanne Vega
Throwing Muses and post Muses work by Tanya Donnelly and Kristin Hersch

The Decemberists - 16 Military Wives
"Sixteen military wives
Thirty-two softly focused brightly colored eyes
Staring at the natural tan
of thirty-two gently clenching wrinkled little hands
Seventeen company men
Out of which only twelve will make it back again
Sergeant sends a letter to five
Military wives, whose tears drip down through ten little eyes
Cheer them on to their rivals
Cause America can, and America can't say no
And America does, if America says it's so
It's so!
And the anchorperson on TV goes...
La de da de da de da de da de da de da
Fifteen celebrity mimes
Leading their fifteen sordid wretched checkered lives
Will they find the solution in time
Using their fifteen pristine moderate liberal minds?"

I love Pandora! A friend showed it to me about a week ago and i've been listening to it non-stop. I've discovered so much new music b/c of it.regynalonglank wrote:i am so all about pandora.com right now. i have two stations, the one with music that goes along with the Cocteau Twins, and the one with Reggatone and all things Latin and Brazilian...it's the music genome project, and it's the best streaming no commercial thing i have found, ok, i didn't found it, paperboy did, but seriously, it makes work doable lately...

Now that you mention it, it does seem to have a little bit of a Zappa feel in some places. I don't think there is a connection, but Some of Jim Morrisons poetry would have fit well into Zappa's music. However there is no telling what their producer was listening to at the time.wedeliver wrote:I sure hear a lot of Zappa in "The Soft Parade"??
