for whatever reason, i just really like the song "Hello, It's Me." i really get going on that one while I'm driving along, particularly the, "Think of me, youuuuuuuuu, you know that I'd be with you if I could..." part.

"I'll come around and see you once in a while, or if I ever need a reason to smile...... and spend the night if ya think I should...."

You know Todd Rundgren recorded a version of that same song in the 60's with a group called THE NAZZ. It's hard to find that version of "Hello, it's me."

Cruel Intentions is one of my favorite movies, I admit one of the main reasons is the music. I do agree that the use of placebo at the beginning was fantastic.

It's a great album

.

uhh as far as I know, yes it was and is. Unless it has been performed as something other than an opera at some point in time.

Snarky · #58 Post by **Snarky** » Wed Aug 25, 2004 5:46 am

Isn't it technically an operetta?

A couple of my friends just got tickets to a Franz Ferdinand concert in SF, and they were playing a CD with them. Good stuff.

I was being completely sarcastic. Georges Bizet is the author of the Opea Carmen....... I was refering to it's recent resurgence in popularity amongst young people, and the fact that MTV made a horrible film called Carmen: A Hip-Hopera a few years ago.

I see. A hip hopera? What a great way to ruin a classic.

Blackthorne519 · #62 Post by **Blackthorne519** » Wed Aug 25, 2004 8:03 pm

Hehe. I spelled Opea. What the hell is an Opea?

Anyway, right now..... listening to Silence. And it's deafening.

Currently listening to the Megaman Zero 1 soundtrack, with Zero's theme playing right now in the queue.

I love to listen to the songs from Southpark.

Cartman's Christian rock band cover songs are funny.

Yes I may be born again, but I wasn't born again yesterday.
.....
I want'a get down on my knees and start pleasing Jesus. I want'a feel his salvation all over my face.
.....
The body of Christ, sleek swimmer's body, all muscled up and toned.
The body of Christ, Oh, Lord Almighty, I wish I could call it my own.
.....
You're one time, two times, three times my Savior...
.....
Whenever I see Jesus up on that cross I can't help but think that he looks kind'a hot...

Oh Navy, that was too cool. They should play that song every time someone loads up the AGDI webpage.

This just goes to show you how utterly insane QFG fans truly are...

Anyways, in my stereo box nowish: I just discovered this progressive blues singer by the name of R.L. Burnside. He's really good stuff. Also, I've got Muddy Waters, Audioslave, Green Day (can't wait to get their new album), OAR, and Nina Simone. I'm in one of those weird music "transitional stages" where I'm not quite sure what style I can say I'm most into, so it's weird at the moment. Then again, I've always been rooted in rock, so rock that heavily incorporates other things I like, like blues and jazz and folk music, is like a godliness.

Bruce McCullough - "Shame Based Man"

Bruce was in the Canadian sketch-comedy show "Kids in the Hall". This CD is funny; my girlfriend gave it to me. She loved "Kids in the Hall"

Adam Sandler - "Shhh..... don't tell."

Seriously. Messed. Up. Best track

18. Whore!?!? Where are you?

U2 - "The Joshua Tree"

Jesus. This Album..... one of the greatest ever made.

The Beatles - "Let It Be"

Let it be still makes me cry.

Elton John - "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road"

One of the greatest albums of the 1970's. Includes John's single greatest composition - "Funeral For A Friend/Love Lies Bleeding"

Now the guilty pleasure.......

Coery Hart - Never Surrender.

Damn 80's Canadian rock.........
