DO YOUR OWN FKN YOUTUBING IN FUTURE!! @

Just want to know who you are through a non invasive mean's. "this kitty gots claws, MEOOOW!"

It has taken me 50 years to find out "WHO I AM" WTF do YOU think you could possibly learn from a few stoopid posts on music??

I like what I like and that can range through the whole gamut of genre. The items offered give you more info on WHEN I was born and nothing more.

It's easier to understand somebody else, than it is to understand oneself. Ive actually been quite taken with studying psychology and philosphy. I already have a pretty good idea about most of you from all the post ive read since joining.

I don't know myself yet, although if I had to speculate I'd say a very sexy robot.

First off, great thread! Thank You JohnDG for a great idea. Although I will say, for such a simple idea, it's consumed a lot of my time trying to figure out who I am musically.

First, I will sprinkle a few comments re: others' songs first, which you may skip (go to second <hr>).

---

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:

---

This was a triumph.
I'm making a note here: HUGE SUCCESS.
It's hard to overstate my satisfaction.
Aperture Science
We do what we must
because we can.
For the good of all of us.
Except the ones who are dead.
But there's no sense crying over every mistake.
You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.
And the Science gets done.
And you make a neat gun.
For the people who are still alive.
I'm not even angry.
I'm being so sincere right now.
Even though you broke my heart.
And killed me.
And tore me to pieces.
And threw every piece into a fire.
As they burned it hurt because I was so happy for you!
Now these points of data make a beautiful line.
And we're out of beta.
We're releasing on time.
So I'm GLaD. I got burned.
Think of all the things we learned
for the people who are still alive.
Go ahead and leave me.
I think I prefer to stay inside.
Maybe you'll find someone else to help you.
Maybe Black Mesa
THAT WAS A JOKE.
HAHA. FAT CHANCE.
Anyway, this cake is great.
It's so delicious and moist.
Look at me still talking
when there's Science to do.
When I look out there, it makes me GLaD I'm not you.
I've experiments to run.
There is research to be done.
On the people who are still alive.
And believe me I am still alive.
I'm doing Science and I'm still alive.
I feel FANTASTIC and I'm still alive.
While you're dying I'll be still alive.
And when you're dead I will be still alive.
STILL ALIVE

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.

Re: nibbled to death by cats,

Zen Badger: Consider me so moved. A delight.

Well, without further ado....

Aw you... I'm just normal guy (apparently I look like a physics graduate student, given my beard and hair). I'm not scary at all.

Great, now I will have to comment on everyone's video, thanks tho I should have done it from the start.

This will take me a bit, peering into your souls isnt easy and at the end I plan to steal them.

Hey! where the fuck is MY little mention!

[Angrboda]

A lot of these songs have the flavor of atheist anthems. In that spirit, I'd like to add a suitable anthem from the civil rights movement. It's a Malvina Reynolds composition covered by Barbara Dane and the Chambers Brothers.

Sorry. Fatigue set in so I cut and ran. Firestarters are some of my favorite people. Glad to have you aboard!

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?

Jewish? No.
Religious? Depends what you mean by the word.
RELIGIOUS? I certainly wouldn't shout about my religiosity.
