What song(s) do you like?

Lady Jellybee · Sat, 10th Aug '02, 2:43am

Continuing in a tradition of music that seems prevalent on the board, and since I know little about most of the songs/bands/etc that everyone else seems to like, I wanted to post my views (and hear everyone else's) in a topic where you can talk about ANY music/song/singer/etc. Also, if, like me, you like a song that you don't think anyone else is familiar with, feel free to post the lyrics.

Right now I have "Yubiwa," composed by Yoko Kanno, sung by Maaya Sakamoto, stuck in my head.

Namida ga ato kara afureda*****,
Saigo no egao ga nijinde mienai no
Ikanaide! Ikanaide. Koko ni ite!
Sora e hikari kakenukete yuku

English Translation:
As the tears keep overflowing,
I can't see your smile through the blur
Don't go! Don't go. Stay here!
Light bursts through the sky

That's just the first verse, I doubt anyone will guess where it's from. Except, of course, that it's from Japan.

I have two Japanese bands/singers' CDs. The first one is Globe, amazing techno band I find and the second one is some weird Japanese name and I temporarily lost the CD case. She is sopposed to be the #1 pop singer in Japan.

I like a lot of songs, singers and bands, too many to name and they always change constantly depending on where I am, what time it is and my mood.

Right now I'm listening to a lot of Craig David and 112, both R&B/hip hop.

Lady Jellybee · Sat, 10th Aug '02, 3:18am

I don't suppose it's Ayumi Hamasaki? I just did a little searching and the site I found her name on mentions that "all Japanese high school girls follow (her) blindly."

Or is it Namie Amuro, whom another claims is the 'Princess of J-Pop'?

I'm not familiar with either of these, but was just trying to refresh your memory.

Methylviolet · Sat, 10th Aug '02, 4:46am

All I know of Japanese pop would be Shonen Knife, but I *love* them. I have to say that theirs was one of the best concerts I have ever seen.

Hmmm.

Wierd Al!!! Yay!

And I have to admit that I like Adam Sandler's Hanukkah Song too.

Hmm, better list all the CDs in my CD case... or maybe not until I find out if they're 'cool'...

Does anyone like Hootie & the Blowfish?

Aikanaro · Mon, 12th Aug '02, 3:48am

I thought that this was your favourite song, not what CD's you own

Chevalier Mal Fet · Mon, 12th Aug '02, 3:30pm

My favorite band is Nine Inch Nails. My current favorite song is And All That Could Have Bee. Anyone else like NIN? I haven't heart it mentioned.

Z-Layrex · Mon, 12th Aug '02, 3:41pm

Yay! You like Japanese songs too! My fave's the Final Fantasy X theme song Suteki Da Ne sung by Rikki.

For the first time in years, I bought a new album today, Røyksopp's Melody AM. Doubt any of you have heard of that. It's Norwegian electro-funk, and usually without lyrics.

Lady Jellybee · Mon, 12th Aug '02, 5:55pm

Dang it, I have yet to hear Nobuo Uematsu's work, or even to play a Final Fantasy game! Would you recommend his CDs, Z-Layrex?

Lazy Bonzo · Mon, 12th Aug '02, 6:07pm

My favourite song at the moment is I hate everything by The Suicide Machines -

[ i apoligize for the use of the word f*ck but if i edit it out then it wouldn't make sense.]
[edit] ok it auto-edits them out. You can work out what the ****'s are.

I Hate Everything

My systems down
Got an overload of hate
Got a bad attitude
With no intent to change
I've had my fill
I put my cards on the table
Won't take it back
'Cause today I hate everything

I hate it all, I hate my friends
I hate this song
I hate this bad attitude, I'm sure you hate me too
But I don't care, you know why
When it's over then you die
No making friends today
'Cause I hate everything

I hate everything, **** you
I hate everything, **** you
I hate everything, **** you

I hate the trees
Hate the birds and the bees
Got a sick ****ing mind
And no time for your kind
I'll say again, must I still question my friends
I'll smile tomorrow
'Cause today I hate everything

I've got a chip on my shoulder
Got a monkey on my back
Got a lot of things to say
And I think I'm gonna crack
Can't buy a smile off the world's happiest man
No huggin' trees today
'Cause I hate everything

I hate everything, **** you
I hate everything, **** you
I hate everything, **** you

****, I hate it all
I hate the winter, summer, spring, I hate the fall
I hate the world, the birds, the flowers and the squirrels
I said before that today I hate everything

I got an itch I can't scratch
All these people on my back
Make me sick, they're all pricks
And your mother turns tricks
Don't bother me either way
And I don't care what you say
Don't need a hug
'Cause today I hate everything

I hate everything, **** you
I hate everything, **** you
I hate everything, **** you
I hate everything, **** you
I hate everything, **** you
I hate everything, **** you

**** you- not me

idoru · Mon, 12th Aug '02, 11:34pm

Hmm, I think most of you will recognize these:

Teenage angst has paid off well
Now I'm bored and old
Self-appointed judges judge
More than they have sold

If she floats than she is not
A witch like we had thought
A down payment on another
One at salem's lot

Serve the servants - Oh no (x4)

That legendary divorce is such a bore

As my bones grew they did hurt
They hurt really bad
I tried hard to have a father
But instead I had a dad

I just want you to know that I
Don't hate you anymore
There is nothing I could say
That I haven't thought before

Serve the servants - Oh no (x4)

That legendary divorce is such a bore

I guess you'll tell me that I'm 10 years late.. and I am! I just never got into nirvana back then... and now, at 19, I bought "in utero", and I realize there were more to them than "smells like teen spirit".

Lady Jellybee · Mon, 12th Aug '02, 11:53pm

...Can't say that I've heard that one... I'm stuck listening to Ace of Base and Enya.

LittleJimmy · Tue, 13th Aug '02, 5:30pm

That Nirvana song's a classic. In fact, pretty much anything by them is a classic...
