Eyeball posted:TaTu's cover of "How Soon Is Now?"? What? Why? When? I can't say I'm the hugest Smiths fan, but, like, that is one of the most uncoverable songs I can think of off the top of my head---that ridiculous multi-delayed guitar, Morrissey's ridiculous Being Morrissey...I'm disappointed in the world for letting that happen.

GreenAcidRage posted:The coldplay song played in the ad for their stream on youtube. What's it called? It keeps playing before all my VEVO music videos. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WAxLR2_wSsc&feature=related <Random VEVO video. I tried turning off my adblocker and running some vevo poo poo to see if I could help out, all I got were ads for Hunt's tomatoes, State Farm Insurance and some anti-smoking PSA. However, if they're promoting Coldplay right now, it's because they've got a new record out. Your best bet is to check the tracks off of it; it's probably one of the singles that has been released for the record so far, "Every Teardrop is a Waterfall" or "Paradise." If it's not, well, then just grab the tracklist off wikipedia and start tossing names into the youtube search, some kid has to have uploaded the whole record by now.

Slowish somber song, most recognizable from the 3 syllable word/phrase that the singer repeats in a chorus similar to "[daneena].... [daneena], [dey deh det deyhey], [daneenaa]..." Emerson, Lake and Palmer's "C'est La Vie", from 1977?

Paperhouse posted:Immortal Technique - Dance With The Devil I was working day shift in a pizza joint in college, the guy I worked with (he held down the store while I drove pies around town) played eight zillion tons of Immortal Technique and a bunch of equally obnoxious technical death metal (you know the kind, the sort where it's nothing but blastbeats and gravity rolls), and Dance With The Devil made me seriously uncomfortable. It still does. And yet I was the one who got yelled at by the boss for my music choices for having the DKs on during lunch rush. (because, he said, the customers might not get the point of stuff like Kill The Poor and think we're actively advocating murder) Ah well.

Dwayne Bensey posted:I heard a song when I was traveling in Europe recently. The first minute or two (or maybe more) was just a long build-up that sounded a bit like the very start of The Kinks' Do You Remember Walter, or more like the first 10 seconds or so of ELO's Mr. Blue Sky. I think it was a modern song, and the first few minutes were basically just one chord played on the beat. Now that I think about it, it was very similar to the start of Mr. Blue Sky, and might have even had the same piano-guitar-bass instrumentation and maybe some claps thrown in too. Hope that's enough to go on! I suspect you're thinking of All My Friends by LCD Soundsystem. I could be wrong, though. (Sorry, I couldn't find a youtube link to the studio version, just live versions or the single edit that cuts out the whole intro.)

So, I was at a show tonight, and amongst the music on the PA was an absolute stinker, which got cut off as the opener came on, then because apparently the guy running the PA was all like "this song is amazing you guys you really need to hear it all to understand how good it is" he put it on again from the beginning while the roadies cleared the opener's gear. I kinda now need to know what the gently caress it was so I can hate it properly. Unfortunately, all I remember is that it's a giant Queen ripoff (it didn't sound like Muse, though) with a string section, then a midtempo Bonham stomp, and eight million layered vocal tracks. The only lyrics I remember are, unless I'm completely hallucinating, a section where the multitracked chorus goes "what the hell what the hell what the hell?" edited because I apparently can't finish a loving sentence. hexwren fucked around with this message at 22:28 on Sep 27, 2012 |

This one should be obvious, but I haven't eaten yet today and it's loving bothering me. 70s-style classic rock, sounds like Foreigner, song opens with heavily phased piano, lyrics are stereotypically all about a girl who's playing games and something about chains. I am going to kick myself so hard when it's identified.

YouDummy posted:Wild stab, but is it possible you misheard "Chains"? Nope, totally not. Too many synths in this, the guitar is too clean, and it doesn't start with phased piano. That is literally the only thing at the beginning of the song. edit: Also, I want to say it's a real four-on-the-floor stomper, it's got a cowbell keeping time and everything.

Nope. Male vocalists, plural, not Lindsey and Stevie and Christine. And I mean piano that has been run through a phaser or flanger. I've checked the website of the radio station where I heard it and their playlists are four days behind. Goddamn it.

I'm going to start digging through the back catalogue myself soon, but I was wondering if there's anyone who can help with this: I was watching a goon with a goldfish memory stream Euro Truck Simulator 2012 earlier, and he was playing nothing but Mr. Oizo. I'm trying to find out what the song was that was playing when he first got sound working on the stream, I only caught the last ten seconds of it or so. I don't remember any beat going at the time, but the song ended on an upbeat, major-key synth doodle of sorts.

Be sure to flip the recording backwards to hear what Jeff Lynne is saying at that point. It walks the border between pretentious and hilarious.

Was at Taco Cabana (I'm not proud, I was hungry) and caught the tail-end of a song on their stereo. It was from the 80s most likely, at least partly electronic drums, probably a bit gated, reggae backbeat, and the outro was a synth solo. Any thoughts? I know this one's pretty vague.

Actually had one that I probably should know today, but I can't quite put my finger on it. It's not helped by being played at the grocery store. I could swear it sounded like The Go-Go's, and the hook had the word "Dreaming" (possibly "Dreamin'") repeated a number of times. Definitely had that tom-driven drum chart that made me think Go-Go's. But, again, grocery store, and my hearing's not so good in large, echoey spaces.
