Title: Re: 30 Day Song Challenge.
Post by: Stuart on June 07, 2013, 01:33:15 pm: Just to keep the selections broad, I'll be sprinkling some classical stuff in here. Let's kick off with the most awesome bit of music ever, when Holst invented heavy rock almost a century ago:

Gustav Holst - The Planets - Mars, the Bringer of War (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L0bcRCCg01I#)
Title: Re: 30 Day Song Challenge.
Post by: Rockingnature on June 07, 2013, 03:36:46 pm: This is my all time favorite song.

Europe -- The Final Countdown [[ Official Live Video ]] (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0DuoPBKl2go#)

By the way, you either have one of the dates wrong or you are leaving a gap. June does not have 29 days.

Van Halen - Dreams + lyrics (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MhtednkzJl4#)

And it's all thanks to Power Rangers.

Post by: Delta on June 08, 2013, 08:02:03 am: We should probably tag the songs with the current day (as it is pretty much always two different days in the world and having to trace time zones would ruin the experience).
Day 2, least favorite song:
Andrea Berg-Du hast mich 1000 Mal belogen - Aspach live (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NjGN92hISYk#ws)

Post by: chrisw91 on June 08, 2013, 03:20:52 pm: Day 2 - Least favorite song:

HANSON - MMMBop (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NHozn0YXAeE#)

I really don't understand how it was so popular. How is it even classed as a song?
Title: Re: 30 Day Song Challenge.
Post by: Rockingnature on June 08, 2013, 05:56:17 pm: This song annoys me completely! This song was popular in the late 90's and girls went gaga over it, and guys used this to hook up with the girls. I understand that songs can be used like this, but this song I really dislike. The singer is also a Jim Morrison wanna be, which makes it more annoying. Its in spanish but maybe you will find it cool to you... not for me though, but enjoy. :shocked:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h5D5N8TgBFw# (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h5D5N8TgBFw#)

It drove me mad but eventually they tired of it. And then it came out in English so they started playing it for weeks again!

Stuart commented that the video has some heavy duty BOBFOC material. If so then I wish more people had phoned in before it was released.

And the chorus is just bloody vowels! Nonsensical, random, BOBFOC infested vowels!

First song has the male choir, second the female and this the third song has it all coming together.

The only contender to this would be Rachmaninov's Rhapsody on a theme by Paganini.

try searching for the same song as the studio version. Band name: Heroes del Silencio. song tittle: "La Chispa adecuada. :azn:

Day 3:

I have two songs. The first one is such a positive song, with a real positive message, which always puts me on a great mood. Its from Alter Bridge. Song is: "Metalingus". I first heard it as WWE's Edge entrance theme song.

WWE | Edge Face Titantron 2010 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5wuA9V_sqRA#ws)

Second song I really like because it also has a real happy vibe to it. Alice in Chains, "No Excuses". Enjoy. :azn:

Frankly anything by Stevie Ray Vaughan is tinged with sadness, but this one especially so. Expect to hear more from this guy later in the thread:

I think this one's sadder for me because I didn't hear it until AFTER Michael died. That, and hearing E.T.'s voice in there.

Post by: Delta on June 10, 2013, 07:06:58 pm: Day 4: A song that makes me sad...
This one was a hard choice. I have plenty of sad songs, but no really depressing ones. Mainly either songs of bittersweet joy or of awakening resolve. But I am picking this song, with a horribly deinterlaced video.

Post by: Karla on June 10, 2013, 08:24:44 pm: I actually never listen to this because I don't like being sad. But I have in the past when depressed and it is a truly beautiful symphony. From wikipedia:

Quote
A solo soprano sings a different Polish text in each of the three movements. The first is a 15th-century Polish lament of Mary, mother of Jesus, the second a message written on the wall of a Gestapo cell during World War II, and the third a Silesian folk song of a mother searching for her son killed in the Silesian uprisings.[2] The first and third movements are written from the perspective of a parent who has lost a child, and the second movement from that of a child separated from a parent. The dominant themes of the symphony are motherhood and separation through war.

David Hasselhoff - Du.flv (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GmibSTB5GHI#)

Whereas when we finally got to move back to Scotland after a disasterous 3 years living in England, we were playing these two versions (first one is from a popular advert, second one is a very beautiful version):

Caledonia ( Frankie Miller ) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dZrdo1PuUvQ#)

Celtic Woman - Caledonia (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v28is4jFWeo#)

Now when I listen to these songs I think of 5 months without a shower, little prospect of a job or a chance to own a house, and of course the weather. At least I got some paragliding done though although probably not last year judging by how crap the summer was in the UK.

Day 7: When I moved to Germany, I drove over going through the Channel Tunnel, and this was the first song I head on the radio when I came out the other side. And no, I'm not kidding!

David Hasselhoff - Du.flv (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GmibSTB5GHI#)

Whereas when we finally got to move back to Scotland after a disasterous 3 years living in England, we were playing these two versions (first one is from a popular advert, second one is a very beautiful version):

Caledonia ( Frankie Miller ) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dZrdo1PuUvQ#)

Celtic Woman - Caledonia (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v28is4jFWeo#)

Now when I listen to these songs I think of 5 months without a shower, little prospect of a job or a chance to own a house, and of course the weather. At least I got some paragliding done though although probably not last year judging by how crap the summer was in the UK.

And as a brief aside, here's the advert it came from, which summed up perfectly our situation and what we were doing:

Speaking of the Major-General's song, The Elements by Tom Lehrer would also have worked.

Day 4:

Michael Jackson - Someone in the dark

I think this one's sadder for me because I didn't hear it until AFTER Michael died. That, and hearing E.T.'s voice in there.

That's an excellent and surprising choice. I wouldn't have thought anyone your age would've known of E.T. considering I was 5 when I saw it in the theatre and I'm significantly older than you. For me that one was more nostalgic for both E.T. (childhood) and early solo Michael.

However in light of your post you could probably put me down for some older angry rap - it's like 'really?'
