Struggled coming up with a title and how not to end up as another "what are you spinning" thread. Hopefully I can explain where I would like to see this thread going without too much confusion.

 

1. Post a song you would like others to listen to. I ask that you do not post a song without taking the time to listen to something else already posted.

 

2. Try to fight the urge to flood the thread with multiple songs. This will make it easier to have a proper discussion on each song, genres and other music themes.

 

3. Fight the urge to embed the video. If this thread ends up going anywhere, it can be a pain for some people to load a page with multiple videos in it. Post a link and tell us what song and band it is in the post.

 

4. Does the song have to be some super underground band no one has heard of? No, just something you want others to hear. Don't care how big or small the band is.

 

5. Think a song someone posted sucks? Try to be a good sport about it and maybe explain why without saying, " Wow that song sucks and is terrible. I can't believe you would listen to it. My ears!"

 

 

If anyone finds this too similar to other thread, feel free to delete it. I honestly just want some friendly music discussion while finding new music to listen to that I may have not heard or gave a chance to before. Try not to flood the thread, give others time to join in and be friendly. Feel free to post what your favorite bands are and the type of genres you normally listen to, could help others in deciding what to post.

 

 

My first song will be Tuvan Internationale by Huun-Huur-Tu. Not sure on a genre other than Tuvan throat singers. I find most of their songs to be a good time and some are just relaxing music to jam.

 

I never thought I would enjoy anything called "throat singing," but that's kind of stuck in my head now.

Me, too!

 

Reminded me of Jack Tarr The Sailor, by The Byrds.

I think I like this version of "Let's Stay Together" even better than Al Green's.

Here's a simple, yet brilliant, mostly gone unnoticed, yet immediately memorable tune released by Del Fuegos in 1989 about everlasting love named "Stand By You".

 

The guy's voice could either be liked or hated in its rawness, and I can understand both. The sentiment of the song in it's simplicity related to a 'til death do us part" theme is universal and probably could be felt by many.

 

its straightforwardness lends itself to its immediacy.

I dug that. Surprised I've never listened before.

If you were a hair metal fan in the mid to late eighties, then you probably remember Winger. The band's lead singer and bassist, Kip Winger, was somewhat of an anti-hair metal hero. Though he did do the big hair and spandex things, he was nowhere near the more effeminate lipstick and eye shadow look that was so prevalent in the men of hair metal at the time. Believe it or not, hair metal was not Winger's first musical love. Before hitting the big time, he studied classical music, including composition.

 

One of the things he's been working on since the demise of hair metal is his classical work. He has actually written a thirty minute composition called Ghosts on commission for the Tuscon Symphony Orchestra, and the composition has been used for performances by the San Francisco Ballet. He was nominated for an Isadora Duncan Award for Excellence in Music.

 

The band Winger just released a new album, Better Days Comin', in April. Musically and lyrically, awesome stuff.

Little known fact: He played one season of football at UNLV.

 

From his solo album, This Conversation Seems Like A Dream.........

Any of you guys blues fans? If so, check out this from Canadian guitarist Garrett Mason. If you're a fan of Trailer Park Boys, you might recognize this from the movie Trailer Park Boys: Countdown to Liquor Day.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Great thread by the way!

Not bad at all I like it, and I agree....GREAT thread!

I'm a BIG Night Ranger fan, I'm sure most have heard this song, but not like this. The following is from "24 STRINGS & A DRUMMER – LIVE & ACOUSTIC"

. The album and DVD were recorded live in an intimate, all-acoustic setting with a select number of fans at TRI Studios in San Rafael, CA in May, 2012 and features some of their greatest hits such as “(You Can Still) Rock In America” and “Sister Christian” with refreshing new acoustic arrangements. The result is a testament to Night Ranger’s stellar live show and the strength of their songwriting abilities.

 

You can see them live on August 31 at ST. CECILIA`S MUSIC FESTIVAL 5313 Madison Pike Independence, KY 41051

 

Jack Blades vocals are "money", as is the guitar work of Brad Gillis. "Don't Tell Me You Love Me"

My daughter has seen these guys twice - swears they're far better than any A capella group she's ever heard (although Chanticleer comes real close). Even the "rhythm section" is voice.

Got to see Night Ranger do an acoustic set like this either two or three years ago this October at Epcot. Loved it!

Same thing.

 

Although to be fair, "spleen singing" would probably be less entertaining.
