So I've watched a fair amount of fanvids, but rarely rec. I'm seeking to correct this. But I like themes. By artist appeals to me more than by fandom right now. It's interesting to see how the group's music is used for different fandoms, by vidders with different styles. Even if you're not particularly fond of the artist in question, I suggest ( Read more... )

My brother played me some death metal music, since he thought I might like a few groups. I enjoyed the beginnings of a few songs (they were very well-played, and rather melodic), but the vocals made me crack up. Incomprehensible strangulated noises that sound like demons in cheesy horror movies = hilarious ( Read more... )

While I was certainly startled by the news of Michael Jackson's death, I couldn't bring myself to be particularly saddened by it. He was certainly a highly influential and talented artist, but as a person ( Read more... )

I just went and friended a bunch of people's LastFM accounts. So yeah, streussal = streussal. I hope you would guess that... Feel free to friend there!

And yes, I am one of those people who doesn't bother pressing shuffle most of the time. Alphabetical songs are fun!

I never thought I would like a Britney Spears cover. All-American Rejects are my heroes for tonight.

I was going to see The Dark Knight tonight, but the theatre was insanely busy. We ended up renting I'm Not There, the Bob Dylan... movie thing. It wasn't really a biopic.

Their music videos in general are pretty unique... but that one really takes the cake. ...here comes the video spamming:

What is this bastardization of "Tainted Love"? Damn Pussycat Dolls.

I have a fondness for the Soft Cell version, but the Marily Manson version is probably my favourite. Even if the video is pretty bad.

Marilyn Manson does a lot of covers.

(For "Sweet Dreams", the Eurythmics version is better than his. I still like his though. Uh, if you're ( Read more... )

So Friday night (or Saturday morning, depending on how you look at it), Silvie and I were chatting. It turns out that she has never seen Kill Bill. I told her that it's like a ninja vengeance film/spaghetti western and that she should see it. Also that I want the soundtrack. And then I remembered that I do have one song from the soundtrack. So ( Read more... )

Awesometastic lip-synching of a Mika song. Oh, the hilarity.
