Right now, I'm listening to the album Mighty Rearranger by Robert Plant and the track Dancing in Heaven.

[Corcaigh]

A blast from the past: Ziggy Stardust

[Gordie]

Ah - I'm finally listening to something while surfing this forum!!

 

All Saints - "Never Ever", at the moment.

 

It's on "My Station", on the free radio service provided by Yahoo! Messenger, called LAUNCHcast. I think it's brilliant, the way you can so easily customise it over time to suit your preferences, by rating various songs, artists and albums.

Well, a few hours ago I was at work, singing along to Robbie Williams' 'Angels' on karaoke at the residential special school where I work!!

 

It was the Leavers Party

my very odd goldfish making smacking noises. He always does it this time of night, when he wants feeding. I just wish I knew how.

 

Ok it's not a fish but it is orange and very cute.

I've had a letter writing day today, so have been listening to quite a bit...

Started with some Missy Elliot (Hope she doesn't kiss her mother with that mouth!)

Then got noisy with Death In Vegas (must have been zemanski mentioning Polyphonic spree: the remix of scorpio rising), then some nice, chilled ORB (Cydonia) and some even more laid back JJ Cale (special edition). At the moment it's I Monster, which has got me thinking about the Beta band (Daydream), but I'm also hankering for some fine female vocal stylings along the lines of cocteau twins or Sinead Oconnor's/Jah Wobbles 'visions of you'... Might even dig out The Holly Cole trio's 'Temptation' and go with some smokey Jayazzzzz! Hmmm, break out the Jack Daniel's, mother, that telly's staying off tonight, methinks!

I don't do this nearly as much as I should!

L&P all,

a very mellow

If you've ever been carp fishing at night, it sounds like you took a wrong turn and ended up in lovers lane (snogger's snickett).

but need to fast forward to the bit that will make me feel calmer

Rufus Wainwright Anyone heard of him? and James Blunt.

 

They're both great.

[~Jonathan~]

Rufus Wainwright Anyone heard of him?

 

I saw him in Oxford in May. He was excellent live though (on CD) I find his voice slightly grating.

[asereht]

HI Jonathan,

 

I saw him live three times he is wonderful. I like him on cd too though.

 

I also got to meet him last may( got a photo with him) after a concert here in Dublin he is so nice and genuinely down to earth. My son (18) and daughter(17) like him too and we hope to see him again when he comes back over here.

 

Did I say like? Maybe obsessed would describe it better.

 

Glad to get your reply most people say" Rufus who" when I mention him.

Hi theresa -

Guess that makes you a 'fag hag' then! Every episode of "Will and Grace" on DVD, no doubt

Getting back to the music side of things - I'd agree that Rufus is a major talent, but also see Johnathon's POV, 'cos he can be irritating... Also, I wish he'd invest in a good 'damper' between him and the mic (Alsion moyet could use one too!)... 'Breathy' vocals can work sometimes - but not on every track!

If you like rufus, check out that Holly Cole Trio album I mentioned above... Great vocalist, and the albums all covers of Tom Waits' stuff... 'Jersey Girls' will get your foot tapping, and her version of 'I don't want to grow up'll leave you reeling for days' with permanent stiff hairs round the back of your neck!

I recently bought Want Two on CD (with bonus DVD) for 8.99 inclusive of P&P. My girlfriend adores Rufus Wainwright and has also had her piccy taken with him. The great thing about Rufus is that he's so comfortable about his gayness

 

Be a proud Fag Hag

I have want two and my son has all his other cd's ,dvd's.

 

Cool your girlfriend got a photo with him too.

 

Thanks for starting this thread it's good to talk about something other than ASD's for a change.

 

We should start more threads like this any ideas?

[oracle]

What am I listening to right now? Elvis - I can't stand the guy and I have no idea why my neighbour thinks that I want to listen to her music?

 

Beam me up Scotty I can't take any more

Madeleine Peyroux: "Careless Love". Laid-back jazz keeps me sane.

[~Jonathan~]

Hi jomica.

 

You've piqued my interest with Madeleine Peyroux. When I next have some pennies available, I'm going to order off her albums.

 

Thanks for the 'heads up' with regard to her music, I appreciate it

Now I've had a chance to listen to it properly I really like the new White Stripes CD (so yah boo, Bads!).

It took a few listens, didn't it bid? Now I can't get enough of it. It's still a bit odd in parts though (LOVE Take Take Take!).

 

Hubby's 40th birthday today and James got him Best of REM, so we're listening to that this morning.
