Pariah Posted September 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2016 Where I grew up in northern Colorado, we called our four seasons Winter, June, July, and August. And here in Utah, the joke is that we have only two seasons: Winter and Road Construction. But I digress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted October 6, 2016 Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 Hmmm. Makes me realize that my taste in music leans toward things where the lyrics are not (to me) an important part of the composition, or which are strictly instrumental. (In classical music, I greatly prefer pipe organ and symphonies to opera.) "Vincent", from Don McLean "Through the Dark", from K T Tunstall "Wrote a Song For Everyone", from John Fogerty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pariah Posted October 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 New theme: Three songs that act as poetry, or lyrics can be read as poetry. If you like, post the lyrics too, or link to them. #1: "Eleanor Rigby" by The Beatles - As poignant a story of unrequited love as you're likely to find. #2: "So Far from the Clyde" by Mark Knopfler - A beautiful, heart-twisting elegy. The fact that it's for a ship makes it even more awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted October 10, 2016 Report Share Posted October 10, 2016 New Topic: Three songs with great bass lines. There is an alternate universe somewhere in the multiverse where I lead a band named Gigawatt Subwoofers ("Death by infrasonics"). Passacaglia and Fugue in C minor, by J. S. Bach The Launch and Cool the Engines from Boston's Third Stage. Takes a minute before the bass starts. The immortal Tuba Smarties from Sky, Herbie Flowers on the eponymous instrument. Tristan Fry (nominally the drummer) is the trumpeter who fluffs his opening notes badly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
