The OFFICIAL song in your head thread! - Toyota Yaris Forums

ChinoCharles · 02-12-2007, 04:58 PM

Ever hear one of those songs that is just so great or moving you can't get it out of your noggin?

Well, I've had three in the past week, so I figured what the hell... lets start a thread. Old or new, if there is a song you just discovered that is killing you, no matter what the genre... throw it in here.

If you're like me and listen to pretty much everything, before you know it you'll have an awesome playlist of off-the-beaten-path music!

If you can find a link to the song or an applicable myspace, youtube or whatever, throw it in here too.

Sly and the Family Stone - Wanna Take You Higher
http://youtube.com/results?search_qu...y+stone+higher (great videos here, also there is a live version on the famed Woodstock documentary)

Nonpoint - Alive and Kicking
http://www.myspace.com/nonpoint

Dustin Kensrue - I Believe
http://myspace.com/dustinkensrue

Bring 'em on, I'll be listening to every one.

Don Ross - Michael, Michael, Michael

Good call on the Al! LOL

Dir en Grey - DRAIN AWAY

They don't sound nearly as mean (or silly) as they look:

BTW, for those who are confused as to why they look like gothic zombies, this band and many others in Japan follow a popular visual theme called "Visual Kei".

HYDE - THE OTHER SIDE

No way!

The people who made DDR probably sampled some X Japan music, but X Japan is far from DDR music.

..REALLY FAR

Connecticut by Jesus H Christ & the 4 Hornsmen of the Appocalypse is stuck in my head & won't leave!

ChinoCharles · 02-12-2007, 07:41 PM

John, YES!

That Hyde song is pretty damn good. Dir en Grey is good too, but that dude can't sing worth a poop. Its OK, I can't either.

Learning about visual kei was cool too... basically the Japanese glam rock movement! Crazy!

Now I'm watching my first X Japan performance.

Their drummer is sick!

bigsky2 · 02-12-2007, 07:50 PM

FUGGEN EH!

ROCK ON BROTHA!

I've been very disenchanted with English music in recent years, save for a few bands that are very much pop rock rather than traditional rock.

I fell in love with a lot of the indie bands coming out of the US and Europe the last few years and it reminded me of what X-Japan sounded like during their prime.

That brought me back to J-Rock and I discovered a bunch of bands that produced some great music.

if you're interested about J-Rock, check out the following bands:

X-JAPAN (forefathers of visuel kei, perhaps my favourite J-Rock band)
L-arc-en-ciel
HYDE (lead of L-arc)
LUNA SEA
Malice Mizer (old school VK)
Dir en Grey
GACKT (little more on the poppy side, but he's got a few token rock songs)
Sex Machineguns

There's too many to list, but there's a good start.

Recommend some English bands now will ya?

nice taste =D

xjapan. may hide r.i.p. my friend was at his funeral. when the remaining members played forever love for him that was very tear-jerking. i always wait for the one day someone will sing Art of Life, in it's 30-minute glory, at karaoke.

psycho le cemu's pretty awesome too. pretty sure you heard some of their sounds before too.

but i'm a fan of the pop stars from my country too. AKB48, Nami Tamaki, Brilliant Green, etc.

I"ve listened to Art of Life on road trips and while sitting in traffic and it's possibly the best piece of rock music ever recorded.

Are you aware of this so called new band that Yoshiki, Gackt, Sugizo (LS), and rumored Miyavi are forming?

I don't know what to expect from this collaboration, but it has my interested peaked!

RE: J-Pop
I'm also a fan of various J-Pop: Koda Kumi (best female performer, in my opinion), GLAY (are they considered pop?), globe, aya, etc.

Wow, that's odd! I was gonna put the same song, but the original Tears for Fears version...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ZRib_aAQFQ

By the way, that is the Gary Jules version you posted, the original video is really cool and can be seen here...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4N3N1MlvVc4

What a great song, even over 26 years on...

Cheers! M2
