The Thread Where You Suggest Music To Everybody
Having been ably helped by my readers over the weekend in identifying a Rammstein song which apparently everybody but me already knew about, I am giving back. If you were not previously aware of the Magic Numbers, here now are two of my favorite songs of theirs. It’s driving power-pop, fast and melodic and just plain good.
But wait! I am nothing if not one who likes being introduced to new things, and the last time I did this sort of thing I learned about DJ Format, Kinky and the Greenskeepers, all of which now lurk upon my iPod. And I can always use new tunes, and I am sure all of you can use new tunes as well. So link to songs you think people will like in the comments.

Here are some things I’ve been loving in the last few months or so, all in handy youtube format:
Hey, can I embed things in your comments? Let’s try…
Githead- “Drive By“
…
Jesu- “Deadeyes“ [not bad for an unofficial video]
…
The Futureheads- ““
That last one is a couple years old now, but new to me.

Heh, left the title of that last one out. “Meantime” is the song.
Now, is this comment going to appear first, since the other is awaiting moderation (presumably due to its embedded videos)?

As a fellow pop junkie, I’ll recommend:

Everybody in Canada has heard the following song (I’m barely exaggerating), but maybe not so many in the U.S. It’s also been a while since it was released.
Therefore I give you “Hello Time Bomb” by the Matthew Good Band:

Possibly forgotten, or perhaps a song you never knew about, is “Shuffle It All” by Izzy Stradlin and the Juju Hounds, recorded after Stradlin became the first of many to decide that no amount of money was worth putting up with Axl’s bullshit and left G ‘n’ F’n R:

…Was there any particular reason my comment wasn’t allowed through?

It’s up now. The links accidentally put it into the moderation queue and I missed it.

Is music is enough? Is language is justa tool where music is of concern? Does music requires us to look at a person’s background or race?
If you appreciate music enough, maybe you’d appreciate this song too.
Its by a korean singer who i just found out. I came across this really good performance taht gave me the chills. I think the vocal and singing skills made it too. here-
