MUSIC
WELCOME. Right now All I have is my personal MUSIC Station
I never listen to the radio because I can't find a good station, so here
is my personal radio station.
These are just some choices I made from some of my favorite bands. They
aren't necessarily my absolute favorite songs. All of these songs, I personally
transfered to Real Audio
so please e-mail me
if you want them. Oh, and sorry for the terrible quality. Real Audio does offer
better qualities but I choose the worst one for space considerations.
The songs have a quality choice. Low is low(duh) but good for
people with slow modems. If you can handle high than ignore low.
You can tune in to my station now in low or high. It is like
the radio except you can skip songs(PGUP and PGDN) and there are no commercials or DJ chatter.
All my chatter is below...
In No Particular Order...
Heroin(low/high) by The Velvet Underground. This is a
"stark. amoral journey through the mind and soul of a drug addict," by
a legendary band from the 60's. Lou Reed was no stranger to heroin as
you can see in this picture
where he "shoots the shit" onstage.
They were recently inducted into the
Music Hall of Fame(I think). HINT: Don't *listen* to it. Turn it up LOUD and just
feel the words. It truly is a Harrowin' experience. Sorry, I just had
to do that.
Opinion(low/high) by Nirvana is in my opinion, an awesome song, too bad it is only a solo.
Simple 4 chord pattern, but with his voice it is just beutiful.
This comes from the "Boy Meets Girl Radio Show" in Olympia, WA from 1990, before he was really popular.
He wrote this song the same day as "Dumb" and "Lithium." Those songs are supposedly different versions
than the Nevermind and In Utero versions but I have never heard them.
There are some rumors that this song was recorded in his basement 2 weeks before his suicide, so maybe it will be on the new
record.
If You Must(low/high) by Nirvana is a pretty good song that never got published.
This song is often called "Token Eastern Song," but I am pretty sure it is supposed to be called "If You Must."
I have too versions of "If You Must" and I am confused which one I am putting here so I don't
know the source at this moment. Oh, you may notice that it is really hissy but that it is caused by a combination
of my lowest quality REal Audio conversion and the fact that it comes from a mid generation tape.
I like it but it definitly isn't the best unrelease music out there. Maybe I'll put some more out later...
RAT FINK(low/high) by the Misfits is an incredibly catchy song. It rules. The Misfits
are just one of Glenn Danzig's bands.(I think ther's three in total and they all rock) The Misfits songs
are all simple "punk" songs that are usually taken from something on TV. All I have is Collection II, which
features other punk ass songs like "We Are 138" and Braineaters. One of the songs is even in
Old School Latin. Yes! Glenn Danzig is THE MAN.
Up In Arms by The Foo Fighters is an awesome song off their new CD.
Once again I took this song of the Official Web site to save space. So you
can go there and listen to all the songs.
If you listen to the hole thing it is probably the first song that you begin to like. It is
nice cause it starts off slow from I believe a live performance where William Goldsmith is
drumming. Then The studio half pops in with David Grohl's machine Gun like drum roll. From
there the song basically repeats but it sounds like a whole new tune.
Femme Fatale(low/high) by the Velvet Underground is truly a beautiful song.
Probably everyone knows a girl like the one being described in Femme Fatale. You know, "She'll
build you up, just to put you down...She's such a little tease...She's gonna smile to make you frown...She's
gonna play you for a fool." You get my point. Maybe this songs hits home to you. You know that she doesn't care
about you but you still let her do whatever she wants. Or maybe YOU are the femme fatale. If so, cut it out.
Thematically, this songs reminds me of "Self Esteem" by The Offspring.
Blank(low/high) by the Smashing Pumpkins is a decent song. Definitly not the best.
It comes from the Tonight Tonight single and actually is very similar to Tonight Tonight. you
might be saying, "what the hell are you smoking," but beleive me it is. If you hear the
Tonight Tonight solo by Billy Corgan it sounds very similar.(Guitar wise). I like the part where he sings,
"I'll write a letter to you, and they'll be nothing TO it."
Verse Chorus Verse(low/high) by Nirvana just rocks. They playind at nearly
every recording session but were never satisfied so it never got officially released.
This version comes from I think a soundboard recording from their 2/16/94
concert in Rennes, France, so the sound quality is relatively low. The In Utero
recording of the song is on the "No Alternative" compilation. The songs is
unlisted but if you get that compilation make sure you get the one with the
boy on the cover. The Girl one doesn't have it(or so people say) In addition to "Verse Chorus Verse," this song is known as
"Sappy" and "Seed." The name "Verse Chorus Verse" is Kurt Cobain mocking
his inability to break away from the structured song writing style and was a
propsed title to "In Utero." (Along with "I Hate Myself And I Want To Die" which
was also recorded in the In Utero session.) It was origonally an interview joke, but
considering the outcome I am REALLY GLAD they didn't title it that.
COMING SOON-Homos(The Frogs) Well...Maybe not.
If you really like listening to music on the web, you definitly should
not miss out on Kornyphone.
No, it has nothing to with koRn, but it rocks. It has awesome clips
in Real Audio.
I really like Real Audio, because it allows you to hear songs or watch movies as
you download them.
Please tell me your ratings of these songs(1 is bad)
