JohnDG: I don't know that that is what I think of when I think of what I call K-rap music, but it certainly is beautiful and perhaps I've been negligent in ignoring the genre. It is indeed a sad song; I only hope if this is your life that it gets better from here.
Nimzo: "Wow." Just "Wow". Nice quote from 1 kings too, although I'm unsure, are you Jewish, er, I mean RELIGIOUS! Are you RELIGIOUS is what I meant. Well.... are you?
Kayenneh: Very cool song. I think you made an excellent choice including both versions -- they're almost different songs -- and both are excellent. I haven't listened to Weezer since the blue album, but maybe I'll give them another spin.
Aerzia Saerules Arktuos: The song "Still Alive" is killer, and I can certainly relate. I think I will investigate Coulton's work further. For any interested, the lyrics are below. Given the lip song, I think you might enjoy Space Ghost's Musical Bar-B-Cue, though I can't suggest where to find it as its OOP. Let me just say that I absolutely adore your style! (btw, I'm from Duluth - lol!)
Lyrics to the Song -Still Alive- by Jonathan Coulton:
Moros Synackaon: Uh oh. Oh dear. I think I just wet myself. If you are this fierce in person, I think I will cling to the shadows. I profess sadness for I'm little exposed to new music these days; if it holds such riches, it is indeed a loss.
Cinjin Cain: /me scribbles down "Black Lab" in the book of things to do. I can sympathize with the difficulty in picking just one song -- I similarly balk at the idea of favorite songs (or movies or whatever). Life for me is more a matter of passing obsessions and persistent fancies.
theVOID: Dude, your music sucks. I'm putting you on ignore. *plonk* (hehe. j/k -- it's a comfort to actually recognize a familiar band. Some days I think I should just crawl back inside the 80s where I belong and stay there.)
FaithNoMore: Been meaning to look into Aphex Twin for some time. Thanks for the reminder. Nice stuff. (Hey! No fair making multiple entries! j/k)
KichigaiNeko: For some reason I never got into Yes. Apparently that was a mistake.

Zen Badger: Consider me so moved. A delight.
Hey! where the fuck is MY little mention!
