Drunken_Flower Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 On 11/24/2022 at 10:08 AM, Ken Hisuag said: I've already shared most of my favorite Thanksgiving songs here, so this year I'll share some classical autumn music instead. Hide contents Doesn't get more classic than that! All are blessed, in little ways and big ways, and it is good to have time to reflect upon it and give thanks; I pray everyone has a happy Thanksgiving! ooh i love Vivaldi. Really liking the seasons set, the next season is my top favourite among all other classical, not just from the set. Quote BEER FOR THE BEER GOD!!!

Ken Hisuag Posted December 25, 2022 Share Posted December 25, 2022 For Christmas celebration, some of my favorite Christmas songs. Spoiler Calmus Ensemble - Nova! Nova! Cloverton - A Hallelujah Christmas Danny Gokey - Lift Up Your Eyes With all the countries we have represented on the forum these days, I got to wondering how much traditional Christmas carols differ (for those that even celebrate Christmas to begin with). I didn't have time to look into it myself, but I thought I'd mention it, and maybe I'll remember to search around next year. Merry Christmas! 1 Quote TTT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buskerdog Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 Something I've started doing with university friends is going to karaoke nights. However that's not something you can go to to sing obscure doujin songs, so I've recently been tapping back into the music I "grew up" with, and thought I'd share some of it here. I put "grew up" in inverted commas because it's not necessarily music from my time; most of this stuff was introduced to me by my family. Mike Oldfield is my favourite British musician, famous for Tubular Bells. His absolute best stuff is instrumentals, however, you can't really just listen to the songs by themselves on YouTube, because he makes albums where each track is essentially one movement of single giant performance, and it's meant to be listened to together, so you can't do with having any loading time in between tracks. Listening to one of these albums (for me particularly Tubular Bells II and Music of the Spheres) is like a journey and an absolutely beautiful experience, but for the reasons I mentioned, I can't share it here. So instead, I'm sharing some of his songs with guest vocalists, which are still pretty banging. Spoiler Scissor Sisters are an American band, but I believe they found more success in the UK. The lyrical content of their songs is a strange mix, because you get some songs by them with incredibly wholesome lyrics and then others that are super innuendo heavy or even just explicit (in fact, the band name itself is innuendo). They could definitely be called contraversial, but overall I do have to say I like them. They're upbeat, yet also capable of making songs that are emotional or thought provoking. Spoiler The Corrs are a band of multiinstrumentalist Irish siblings. Also known as "Ireland's 3 most beautiful women (and their brother)". They're notable for combining pop-rock with traditional Irish musical style and instrumentation, and it's seriously banging stuff.

CountVonNumenor Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 When I do not listen to rock or anything symphonic, it seems like I have been listening to more and more music from Japan (be it Touhou related or other series). Therefore, the recent example of two songs from Amagami SS: The opening theme of the show for the first half of Season 1 The end credits theme for the second arc of first season. Episodes 4-7, Tanamachi Kaoru (voice and singing: Rina Sato) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken Hisuag Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 I want to do something funny for today, but my moments of inspiration are inconsistent, and I can't afford to rely on them. So in the likely scenario I can't think of anything better, I'll post some funny music here. Spoiler 2 Quote TTT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canaranjo Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 Been listening to Cartographer lately. Check it out if you like intense, orchestral music: 2nd album covers instrumental arranges of the first album. "Selisona Pi" sounds a lot better with the inclusion of violins instead of the female vocals of "Selisona" in the 1st album, imo. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Hisuag Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 (edited) As man of consistency, I return here to commemorate Resurrection Day with potentially related music. I deliberated at some length over what to post, with my favored options lacking relevant material, giving me to ponder (not for the first time) the possibility of sharing from my other musical interests on a slightly more frequent basis. Regardless, I eventually settled on Don Francisco, whose propensity for ballads was as unusual in his time as it is now (I mean proper ballads, not forlorn country songs that are all too common). His most popular song is specifically written for the occasion. Have a blessed day, y'all! Spoiler He's Alive!

yankop Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 Around 1.5 years ago I listened to a new (for me) pair of singers called KMNZ, specifically a song called "R U GAME". I really liked it, to the point where I used it as my ringtone for a while. But I never listened to a lot of songs from them. I was scrolling my music library recently and saw the song, so I decided to listen to more of their songs/covers. Spoiler R U GAME?: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pAE7pK1Rej0 Home Sweet Home: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tE-J5q8OCF0 Roki (Cover): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EIbvKSUeta0 Lagtrain (Cover): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H_YShL1IyQc 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Hisuag Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 Kommisar has been uploading a lot of his older works to his channel recently; quite a few gems. Spoiler Kommisar - Twinkle Star I don't know why this video title is in Japanese. The Third Man is an old suspense film noteworthy for a variety of things, but most relevantly to me they chose the gimmick of using only one piece of music for their soundtrack. Having seen the film, I don't think it worked, but the piece itself is good. Spoiler Anton Karas - The Third Man I recently watched The Straight Story for the first time, and it's been awhile since I was as impressed with a film as I am with this one. It has been on my mind, and as such so has its music. Spoiler Angelo Badalamenti - Laurens Walking 1 Quote TTT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Hisuag Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 I've some childhood nostalgia for the amusing compositions of Sandra Boynton. While I lack the context to fully appreciate the surprising range of talent featured in her albums, I could tell these songs had much higher quality of performance than they probably deserved. Regardless, they've never really left me, and can't say I mind. Spoiler When a Hippo Can Dance I Need A Nap Copycat 1 Quote TTT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
