Forced Listening 2: Shuffle Edition

[The Prophet]

This'll work just like the other thread I started (Justice = my alt), but instead of posting whatever you're enjoyed at the moment, open your itunes/winamp/whatever and hit 'shuffle'. Find a youtube video of the first song that pops up, and post it here, no matter how lame/embarrassing/stupid you think it is. Then, the person that posts after you will state their opinions about the song and post their own random, probably-humiliating music video!

Original Rules:
Okay, here's how it works: You post a song (this works best if you can find a video), the next person listens to it and states their opinions about it. They post a song, the next person listens to it, etc.

Only two rules are; you have to listen to it all the way through, and don't post unless you're contributing.

I'll start us off:

http://youtube.com/watch?v=_d7-2wooB9g

Wow. Not nearly as embarassing as it could've been, but... wow.

[Slayer of the Rot]

Haha, I've had a lot of my metal-listening friends urge me to listen to this song, but I always kept forgetting. Thanks, Prophet, I can officially tell them I've heard it, and it's awesome.

Here's mine. (http://youtube.com/watch?v=5sBUsoJ7S9o)

[BlackAndBlueEyes]

Never could claim that I liked Deftones, so it was kind of a good thing that I was paying attention more to cleaning my room than this song.

My entry (http://youtube.com/watch?v=5CqvHeB_S4I)

I usually end up throwing this cd on when I'm walking home from work late at night.

[Cyrus the virus]

I seriously hated that. I'm probably not good enough with words to explain why.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=QQtLoJlQD6E

[Godhand]

Jesus Christ, let's all hold hands and silently lament the death of rock and roll.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=XESEt5A12Zo&feature=related

[Slayer of the Rot]

Motorhead is fucking awesome, no need to elaborate.

Here's my next one. (http://youtube.com/watch?v=IqnDzkCCmxc)

[The Prophet]

Wow, someone else in the world listens to Mastodon. Cool. Sleeping Giant's not my favorite song by them, but the video for it kicks some ass.

The first song that came on was a local band. If you wanna watch the video despite it's shitty sound quality, here it is:

http://youtube.com/watch?v=gUazYVoeqwY&feature=related

Otherwise, here's the second song that came on:

http://youtube.com/watch?v=5TGnaF_WUa8

'We need another fucking beer' - Great lyric, or GREATEST lyric?

[Raimeiken]

I like the music - that's some wicked drumming back there.

But~ No thanks. I'm not into that kind of heavy music. ^^;

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rDIBp-9Ghbg

[Godhand]

Goodness, more Japanese bullshit. It's basically the same pop shit you hear on Top 40 radio but in Japanese so you can feel superior. Here's something nobody can object to. Well, nobody with any class or taste, at least.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ksiFrib7vh0&feature=related

[Charles]

I object most strenuously. And much for your reason about J-pop. More french bullshit. It's foreign, so you can feel superior.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=awzyLJFh1lQ

I'm now incredibly embarrassed to even admit I have this song on here... It's funny, but God I need to delete it. I'll give y'all a second option, because I'm not sure you should be subjected to Psychostick.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lR-oIdL4a6A

[BlackAndBlueEyes]

Goodness, more big band bullshit. It's basically the same pops shit you hear on am radio but in French so you can feel superior.

Heh. Nah, it was alright. Sounds like it would fit in just about any old time radio show as an intermission piece. Not obtrusive, but nothing terribly "wow!" to it.

NEXT! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lu3U2UYqPKI)

[Veatrix]

Holy crap. Where has Muse been all my life. "Space Dementia" is amazing. The piano playing throughout the whole song is... haunting and quite skilled. Vocals are very Chris Martin-esque, but loads richer and heartier. The drums really compliment the piano.

Did I say I loved the piano playing. Good God.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xNeC89kUE84

EDIT: "La Mer" is the best thing that happened to Mr. Bean.

[Karuka]

I liked the references to Poe the best, and she has a lovely voice.


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z73gl2vz3PA

[Zephyriah]

Beautiful music, but it made me think about my ancestors in slavery, then freed from slavery, just to be thrown back into slavery once again.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0GpAoju7dOY

[Empyrean]

Ooh, I love the Raconteurs, but I'd never heard that song before. That's convinced me to go out and buy the album, actually, I liked the use of horns in the instrumental part. Good stuff.


Couldn't find an official music video for mine, so I found one using scenes from the show it was made for. If you wanna skip the long intro, go to 00:52.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=JT6u0bE6vTw

[Dissinger]

Its got soul, though to be honest I've been a cowboy bebop fan for awhile, awesome series.

Now for some gold...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xtXN_EHPwSg

[The Prophet]

Cowboy Bebop is the only anime I've ever watched that I've genuinely enjoyed. Likewise, the soundtrack is the only soundtrack from an anime I find listenable. Decent song, I enjoyed it.

-

Guns n' Roses, classic. Great song all around.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=fpg3T1RNGCs

2-song medley, but you don't have to listen to the second one if you aren't a fan. This is probably the best video I've ever seen of the singer for this band. Kinda surprising, cause at least two of them seem completely hammered.

[Lakin_of_DpN]

http://youtube.com/watch?v=erPnyi90cIc&feature=related

Hmm, no shirts was a nice touch to that song, I thought.

[Tainted Bushido]

I always did love that entire compilation. Since a lot of their work was based on Bach, it just shows how well it meshes with orchestrated pieces.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nsETamxkT9E

[Zephyriah]

What in the world was that? I want 4 minutes and 29 seconds of my life back. The only part I liked was at the end when the piano started playing.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PTTHKpvm6uw

The only AMV that actually FITS well with a Linkin Park song.

[Ataraxis]

I think I used to like Linkin Park. Like, when I was 13.

I'm not even sure what the song at the end was, but I didn't hate it.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vhFROOn_D7E

It's long, so you could skip to 4:56.

Or, if you want better sound quality and to see him 32 years later, here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3s0h47TqsyM&feature=related

[The Prophet]

Tainted - Mike Patton is boss. One of my favorite singers ever.

Zephyriah - I AM EMO LISTEN TO ME CRY. That pretty much sums up the song. Linkin Park needs to grow up. They've got some raw talent, but they choose to make crap lyrics and bland music. Sure, they can create walls of distortion with their instruments almost as well as Billy Corgan, but they have yet to write a single listenable song.

Ataraxis - Frampton is pretty cool overall. I actually like his music a lot, but don't have any of his CDs. :[

http://youtube.com/watch?v=s22lQtp-cfk

Another one of my favorite singers ever. ---^

[Zephyriah]

Yeah, I'm nowhere near a fan of Linkin Park. That's why I was shocked that a Linkin Park song actually fit well with an AMV. I'm so friggin' tired of watching AMV after AMV after AMV that has a Linkin Park song playing in the background. Creativity is seriously lacking. Anyway, enough about boring groups.

Judas Priest eh? Haven't heard these guys in a while. Classic. And since we're on classics.....

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AEq62iQo0eU

I know your friggin' roots.

[Elijah_Morendale]

You can't argue with Chuck Berry or Johnny B. Goode. That song is a certifiable classic no matter which way you look at it.

Alright, whoever is next (http://youtube.com/watch?v=xaz2qkDZII4) is going to have to put up with some hip hop. It's not the commercial "bling bling bitches and hoes" bullshit they play on the radio.

[Tainted Bushido]

Eh Jurrasic 5 was one of the only groups to make Reanimation so worth listening to. Other good mentions were Korn, Aaron Lewis, and the girl for My December. Never sad to listen to a hip hop group that can keep beat.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=mTJVblKAXxE

Little music for sleep, but its a great song none the less.

[AdventWings]

Ahh, the eternal American apathy to the world's problems mixed in with the suburban hip-hop beats of the streets.

The song is actually pretty good. The MV also supplements the message well.

And, now, let's hear a really old song.

http://jp.youtube.com/watch?v=zrH3knaiqrI

( Note: The volume's kinda low, I think it's a problem with the MV itself. ^_^; )

EDIT: Bah! Ninj4'd by a masterless servant!

This score from Chrono Cross brings the image of traveling to my mind. It touched on the emotions of floating, or drifting, through the world in search of something unknown.

A good tune to listen when you're on the train with nothing to do. :p

[Lakin_of_DpN]

Since you went there, I'll add this one.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e9eXJKI-LVU

[Cyrus the virus]

UGH.

I like the little guitar riff at the beginning, that's okay. The rest is pretty sad. Amy's vocals are diluted and boring. The singer has always been a Cobain pretender, and sounds like one in every song I've ever heard by him.

Nice. METAL TIME. But I never like the live versions. Mustaine sounds hilarious.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=79LALnJconQ&feature=related

EDIT: And dudes, please recall this is the SHUFFLE edition, dawg.

[Lakin_of_DpN]

Edit:The list is Evanessence. I did shuffle honest.

I didn't feel that song, but wow their hair looked so shinny and lush.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZaBI-Ne8I-I

[Cyrus the virus]

What a thorough review you gave.

Nickelback blows, but this song is just beyond their level of suck. Hero is like a mix of vomit, puke and some kind of stomach bile mixed with daily eatin's. This song was so drastically overplayed that I've developed callouses. Nickelback callouses!

http://youtube.com/watch?v=lGiTnzY7g14&mode=related&search=

[Lakin_of_DpN]

Sarcasm works for you; I didn’t realize I had to be thorough.

I couldn’t understand a word in that song. His mouth was so close to the mic, I thought he would swallow it a few times through the clip. If the intention of the song was to inspire dark depression and total loathing, then yeah I definitely felt all of that. Not knowing the lyrics, I couldn’t say though.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=6yc8xyL0Xxo

[The Prophet]

Lakin 1 - Nickelback is a great band that writes shitty music. They'd probably write more interesting music if they went metal instead of writing the exact same song over and over again.

Cyrus - That's one of my favorite alice in chains songs. :] Decent live performance, too. Lol at the beginning, 'That's alice in chains!'

Lakin 2 - Might as well be elevator music with a guitar. Satriani is a great player, but he's written very little that I listen to frequently.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=Hr9wObkGTYM&feature=related

This band isn't very big so I couldn't find any good-quality live performances. I'm amazed I even found the song at all. :/

[Arsène]

I'm actually incredibly conflicted about this song. I thought the music itself was good, and the vocals sounded like they could really work for another song. But they just didn't seem like they could work together.

It just sounded like another bunch of random phrases, screamed into a microphone to thrashing music. I couldn't feel a goddamn emotion during that song except contempt for the English.

Still, it was alright enough. I did manage to get through it.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=X5vq2P8Gl24

[The Prophet]

Party Monster zomg. Good movie, decent song - I'd actually dance to it, but I don't listen to much dance music for fun.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=dm7fJ4izvqQ&feature=related

And the embarassment begins. If anyone says they don't feel something during this song, they have no soul.

[Feed The Machine]

A true classic. Unfortunately I have no soul though, because it is a song my parents have often listened to when I was younger. But on the note of dancing, I got the perfect song for y'all.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jhuK0xOv15c&feature=related

Baltimore Club Mix, stand up and get ya Spongebob Dance on.

[Skie and Avery]

Wow, that really got on my nerves. You keep this on your playlist? Jesus.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=hTdhXxxWREo

I miss Tarja in this band, but this song made me very comfortable with the new singer. <3

[Karuka]

It said Nightwish. When you say Nightwish, you expect Tarja, like you expect Sharon when you hear Within Temptation or Amy for Evanescence. It's not a bad song or singer, but I...I dunno. Tarja...you couldn't understand her, but she was iconic.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=h03iH-Bsvj8 - I love this song.

[Skie and Avery]

A band is a living thing. You can cut an arm off and link up a prosthetic and yes, it won't be the same. I did say I missed Tarja, but this version of Nightwish isn't any less great. XD It's just a little more plastic. Which...you know... the new chick is fucking hot...

Anyway... Danny Boy... cracks me up. My ex hated this song, so I'd sing it to annoy him. But for some reason, children singing creep me out.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=DdMp7C8T-ts

I love Pink Floyd. In fact, nine times out of ten, when I'm hanging out with my dad, we're drinking beers and watching the Live concert in Berlin that they did. I also love Rasputina, and really, they didn't do half bad, considering they didn't lose their voice or sound at all in doing this song.

EDIT: Just noticed that the music vid for this is Evanescence. But I looked and couldn't find anything else. =( Oh well. It's the Forced Listening thread and not Forced Watching..... Thank God.

[Dissinger]

Always been a Nightwish fan. I never could understand the people who said Tarja was better, each singer has their own appeal, each singer does things the other couldn't or flat out wouldn't. Annette will be as good for the band as Tarja, and its already showing.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XKDzOnRydWk

Damn ninja'd let me hear Manda's newest.

Definitely not like Floyd, but I think thats part of the charm. They do a good job of singing the song, and they make an effort to not try and rip off Floyd. I think it makes it a good distinguished song in the same way Disturbed Changed how you perceive Shout and Land of Confusion.

[Skie and Avery]

I liked the Spanish flair in there. It was a fun song, but not something that I'd actually listen to without prompting.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GjuP0SWqUR0

Dry your tears, I say.

[Lakin_of_DpN]

A Jamaican classic, a mellow rasta change.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G2_hNCu4iak

A good post writing song.

[Cyrus the virus]

Alice in Chains are amazing. Layne was haunting, as any fan knows. I prefer their more, uh, loud songs, but that was okay. It's no 'Would?', certainly.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CnNwykfIWQw

[Raimeiken]

Ummm... I could barely understand what he's screaming about. The music was loud and... loud.

So... this is rock. Wow. *Covers her ears*

http://jp.youtube.com/watch?v=EqP-P5mqHGw&feature=related

My brand of "rock" ^.^

ed: http://jp.youtube.com/watch?v=Py4Km2XGB7s

The Anime OP sequence that also uses this song. ^.^

[The Prophet]

Cyrus - Bah. Slayer used to be wicked cool, but nowadays they're just ok. They still write ok music, but this song is no 'Raining Blood' or 'South of Heaven'. Great performance though.

Raim - There was a glowing microphone, which was cool, I guess. I couldn't understand a word they were saying, but I'm guessing the lyrics were something like 'hey look at my beautiful hair'. I heard a lot of overdubbing, which I disliked. I hated it, but to be fair, I haven't heard a song in Japanese that I've really liked, so your song was no better/worse than anything else I've heard. :]

Well, it just so happens that when I hit 'shuffle', the longest song in my entire library started playing. I sure as hell won't make you listen to all 25 minutes of it, but here are the first 6:

http://jp.youtube.com/watch?v=qu_ikrNN780

That's just the intro, and while it is good, this next part is my favorite section and the song's climax. Listen to whichever you want.

http://jp.youtube.com/watch?v=4AfMJsP5bKQ&feature=related

If you really want to listen to the whole thing, you can find the rest of it under 'related videos' yourself.

[Skie and Avery]

I love that song. I used to have it on a mix tape someone in high school made for me. Don't know how many times I've fallen asleep with that song in my ear.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=r7MwllKU1oc

[Cyrus the virus]

They're okay. My good friend likes them a lot, but I can't get into the songs too much.

And yeah, I'm not a Slayer fan like I used to be. But this is shuffle edition.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=oaWi2fLi6co

[BlackAndBlueEyes]

You can't really argue with a band like Bang Camaro and their straight-up rock. All of the singers will kick your ass if you were to do otherwise.

I remember the solo owning me in Rock Band on expert.

"Bloody Tears" from Castlevania 2 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EjazC45Qkww&feature=related)

You'd be hard pressed to find an NES game by Konami whose soundtrack wasn't made of awesome.

[The Prophet]

You have not misled me. That song was indeed made of fuck and yeah, although it could've used more synthesizer. :D It was actually one of the better NES tunes I've heard yet.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6urTrlgzc_Y

[Skie and Avery]

I don't really like Weezer, so I went into this song wondering why anyone would listen to this instead of the Dead Kennedy's Too Drunk to Fuck. But I liked the guitar solo.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tBGXwX-TdTY

[Lakin_of_DpN]

It was really difficult to stay with that song to the end, not much of a fan. I think it was pretty Iconic for that generation though.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gtnf9EqijT0

[Elijah_Morendale]

Speaking of songs that are really difficult to stay with to the end... That song epitomizes everything that's wrong with mainstream rock today: Uninspired lyrics, boring song structure, and a general lack of imagination and creativity. And yet, it sees hourly play on radio stations. Shiiii, I wish I had their marketing team.

NEXT! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pcJwz7wu8_s&feature=related)

[Cyrus the virus]

Intriguing. It's entertaining and not inspiring, which I guess is the purpose of the song.

PARTY TIME: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DM9n96CgzfU&feature=related

[The Prophet]

Every time Amanda posts in this thread, it gets a breath of life. Every time I post, I kill it utterly. D: Die, thread, die.

Great song, killer solo. His modern stuff gets on my nerves - it's starting to sound exactly like Black Label Society's music - but this song was stellar, a true classic. I loved how the people in the audience were wearing business suits, too. :D

This next song is my favorite song from any movie that I've ever seen. The movie itself is phoenomenal, and if you haven't seen it and you enjoy sci-fi you should go rent it right now. Now. Go now. Why are you still reading this? GO. Fucking GO.

Got the movie? Good. Now, listen to the song.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rWlXU2DeYkQ&feature=related

If you don't plan on watching this movie, the following is the scene where the song plays. It is easily one of the greatest scenes I have ever watched in my twenty years of life, but I don't encourage you to view it if you plan on following my recommendation and watching this movie.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hfDCvbEtxzY

[Skie and Avery]

Lovely piece. For some reason I'm reminded of the Armegeddon soundtrack, but maybe because my brain is just generalizing between "sacrifices made in space" movies. =P Kidding.

Ooo look! Manda's winamp goes vintage.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PPFBgSokI00

[oren]

Strangely enough a friend sent that to me before. Not that bad.

This isn't so much of a shuffle as it randomly popped into my head so I had to find it.
WATCH ME! (http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=2Fe11OlMiz8)

[Dissinger]

You rock so much harder for that.

Now for something completely (http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=MsyNNKb4wLg)different.

[Skie and Avery]

Ha ha, that was a perfect video for the song.

The only other video to this song was a Simpsons one, and a crappy one at that, so no movement for you. MWAAHAAAHAAA This is from my "sleep" playlist, and considering it's five in the morning and I'm posting here... you can see how well THAT works.

http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=U-sormvP7yM

[The Prophet]

I'd heard this band before, but the song I heard was completely different - it featured a guy grunting through the verses while a woman sang the choruses. This was much better than my previous experience with Battlelore. The song was definately relaxing, but it was nothing particularly special musically and as someone not acquainted with the band or the lore it sings about, I found the lyrics nonsensical.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=h61HBR2U0Ps

I may have posted this in the other thread, too, but this is the first song that came on my playlist. Performed the morning before I saw 'em here in Tulsa.

[Skie and Avery]

I really liked that. Makes me regret the fact that I won't go to a live show anymore a bit.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=0PFoUAhqaWI

Saul Williams and Esthero - Tao of Now
I was really disappointed that I could only find two videos on Youtube, and this one didn't mention Esthero at all, who is the woman in the background. Granted, there's not much of her voice, but oh wells. I loves this song.

[The Prophet]

Wow. That's about as far from mainstream rap as you can get and still be called hip-hop. I enjoyed it; I hadn't ever heard an artist quite like Saul.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=28GaKoCuobU

The best song you've (probably) never heard.

[Visla Eraclaire]

I enjoyed it, but I like Iron Maiden, though I am a little impatient. I'm not a super dedicated fan, so I actually hadn't heard that particular song before. I just kind of listen to what's put to me.

Videos of live performances always kind of weird me out, because I prefer not to think about the bands themselves. It's funny how old some people have gotten, hehehe.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=FwJ3MD0rIVA

I wonder if this has actually been posted already, but I'm not going back through 6 pages to find out.

[Skie and Avery]

This is actually one of those Nightwish songs I don't really enjoy all that much. Not sure why, since Tarja usually makes me giggle at some point during a song.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=77Y3fCQ4NPw
2:04 is the best part of the music video EVAR!

[BlackAndBlueEyes]

Here I was expecting Bigfoot to do the Napoleon Dynamite dance or something. Not a bad song, though.

Time for some Aesop Rock. "The Harbor Is Yours" (http://youtube.com/watch?v=gb0rGC2oRPY) - a story rap about a pirate meeting a mermaid.

Note: This wasn't the first thing that popped up in my MP3 player... But I'm sure that nobody would appreciate me linking to a 25 minute episode of an old time radio drama.

[The Prophet]

BaBE - Aesop Rock. I remember these guys being MTV's babies for a while, so I never really gave their music a chance, but the song you linked was fairly good. It wasn't very catchy and it didn't have much of a hook, but it flowed well and was very original.

everyone else - I don't understand operatic 'metal' like Nightwish. The feel of the music is just wrong to me. Every aspect of the music is so ridiculously dramatic that I just can't enjoy it. I remember the first time I heard 'I Wish I Had an Angel' - It was funny for about two minutes, then it was cool for thirty seconds, then it was just irritating. I don't get it. Sorry for the lame critique. :[

http://youtube.com/watch?v=gReQdxpCtz8

That's about as close to emo as I'm willing to get with my music.

[Skie and Avery]

Andy: I've never seen Napoleon Dynamite, so I was quite pleased with the dance he did do.

I don't know about this being pretty emo... I think Trivium can get a little more emo than this. XD And shorts and a cape? .... now I'm too amused to properly enjoy this song.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=mvf11VlCKHg

[The Prophet]

That song was better than any other foreign-language song that's been posted in this thread. I liked the singer, but I wasn't a fan of the music. There are so many nu-metal bands out there with so many different types of singers - I'd much rather listen to Chevelle or Evanescence than this Russian band.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=YYjBQKIOb-w

Great performance, or GREATEST performance ever?

[Empyrean]

I love that man, even more so now that I've seen Labyrinth.

Great performance, indeed - I would expect no less from David Bowie.


Here's a nice mellow one - I just recently discovered it, but everyone and their mom has probably seen/heard it already. Still a goodie.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p8Z-DIAthbM

[Heart of Zaga]

Sweet. I've always liked mellow songs like these, when it first game out I got the video from itunes. Fun Fun

Now, now, I said I liked mellow but who doesn't like some rythm?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cXRnkMqcMic

[Ataraxis]

Ah, summer 05. That song lost its virginity to me. Or something like that, I'm not sure, I may have taken too much blue acid.

In all seriousness, I've never loathed DnB, so it was rather enjoyable in its own kind of way. Good thing it lasted under 3 minutes though, or I might've gotten tired of it.

I fell on a track that probably no one could understand and that's so obscure it just can't be found on youtube. So I think I'm allowed to skip to the next.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GwzfPNZUrE4

[Skie and Avery]

I like that song, even though I don't listen to much Radiohead. The majority of songs that band puts out makes me a little sad, and that one isn't any different.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JS47QWBycHw

[The Prophet]

'Shit Sandwich'.

Seriously though, Manowar writes decent music, but something about them turns me off to their music completely. I can't explain it. :/

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OxowWo_XV_c

This is easily their best song. I still remember the first time I saw them live - I had no idea who they were, and they were singing about battlefields and jackhammers. Needless to say, I was confused. Hell, I listen to this band all the time now and I'm STILL confused.

[Skie and Avery]

Ha ha, C&C confuse me too. The first song of theirs I heard was Delirium Trigger and I spent about an hour afterwards trying to unlock the verses. It's one of the reasons I like their music.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ih9rIRtlt-g
This is a band best not taken seriously. Especially considering the vampiric lead singer has a lisp. XD Lichgessshhhhtthhhaaallt! Ooosexy. ROFL!!

[Elijah_Morendale]

Yeah, um... I really don't know what to think about this song.

I saw the singer dude's hair and the song lost any credibility it might have had. As for the actual music myself, it was alright, but the whole piano/strings with metal ain't my sort of thing.

Next: "Doin' The Cockroach" by Modest Mouse. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=brZpVNGrjRg)

[The Prophet]

That song had a cool sort of energy to it, but it was surprisingly ho-hum for being so upbeat. I have a feeling this song is much, much better when performed live.

-Yep, I found a live video and it's much better. :]

Ah, that's the first Metallica song my mom ever had me listen to. I luvs Sanitarium. Great video, Cliff was amazing. One of my exes had a spliced video of a bunch of footage of Cliff playing live songs, trying to study the technique. Ah, the fun that can be had when bassists date each other.

I will admit, I had to press the "next" button twice. The first song that came up was Omie Wise by Greg Graffin and I couldn't find it on youtube anywhere. So anyway. Next.

Well, it was interesting. It had a nice Rythym, thought the drum was pretty good.
I wish they had another name for that woman than, fatty. Seemed mean and rude to me. Also, why did that woman remind me of Hillary?

Anyways, I'm hoping someone can tell me where I can get this song so I can own it, not own it vicariously through youtube.
