kristinm · Mar 18th, 2008, 07:56

Just having a little listen to Wilco as we are going to see them tonight.. haven't seen them live before but have heard they are great.

The Besnard Lakes.

Queen.
Greatest Hits, double CD sets.
Both of them, because there are days when the only thing that makes me brave enough to wash dishes is Freddie Mercury. A lot of Freddie Mercury.

Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band!

99 Problems/ Points of Authority, Jay Z feat Linkin Park.

Get Back, Ludacris feat Sum 41.

As a matter of fact, Stronger is one of my absolute faves... maybe because of the mix with Daft Punk and I like a bit of techno. It often gets stuck in my head and begins to drive me crazy, tho.

Agree with you on both Counts. Kanye is talented and that song is indeed addictive. The video is quite cool, too.

Ignite, Yes, those two songs stand out from that Album. Timbaland is more of a producer and less of a rapper. That song is really cool, though. As for Kanye's attitude, He did say once that if the Bible was re-written in this day and age, then he should be mentioned in it! I found that funny.

Today I went to the new (& very awesome) French bakery in our town and was reminded of a French pop phase I went through in high school, so I found a Paris radio station streaming online. --Altho after a couple of songs, remembered that it was only a phase...

Ignite · Mar 21st, 2008, 13:33

Batistuta, its true that Timbaland is more of a producer than a rapper, but if i had a choice between listening to kanyes rap over timbalands beats, I would choose Timbaland beats any day. Ofcourse i'd much rather listen to both, but in case if i had to choose, i'd just stick to straight music by Timbaland.

BTW, I read your comment about my quote by MJ on the other thread. Do you follow the NBA?

batistuta · Mar 21st, 2008, 16:38

Wires, Athlete. Great song.

One Mic, Nas. Best rapper around

Ignite, Yes, I do follow basketball. I see that you are Lakers fan. Nice mugging of the jazz today, in their own backyard. Impressive. I think they are building another dynasty. Odom is a matchup Nightmare for most teams, as are the other players. Then, they have Kobe, the game's most singular talent.

I was a fan of the Phoenix suns, now they have changed their philosophy, love the warriors and the Hornets ( Chris paul must be the season mvp, imho).

I Do think that the Celtics will win this year, if their stars stay healthy. They have something going there. Yeah, guess you can call me a basketball fan.

Ignite · Mar 21st, 2008, 23:05

Batistuta, good choice on not sticking with the suns anymore, i mean who in their right mind trades Shawn Marion for Shaq?

I'm not sure if the celtics will win this season, but I do think they will go to the finals, because they're the best team in the east coast right now. I really think its going to come down to Lakers vs. Celtics, and Lakers have an advatange over the celtics once Andrew Bynum heals his knee injury, and gets back into training.

And you're right about the dynasty. I mean just look at the line up, Kobe Bryant, Lamar Odom, Derek Fisher, Pau Gasol, Andrew Bynum. I think I see another three championships coming up in a row

Oh, Puchoo, saw your neighborhood mentioned in a NYT article on New Delhi today. Of course, they also mentioned 'vodka gol gappa'...

not sure if that is a happy fusion or a travesty, though.

Ignite & Batistuta, I was going to chime in with "Go Sonics", but since I haven't been paying attention, looked at their stats.
Ummm, nevermind.

Lucky for us there's Miami.

Right, music.
OK: Kholo Kholo from Taare Zameen Par, a film I've not yet seen. I like the song, and the singer's voice quite a bit. In my relatively limited experience, it's not usual Hindi film song fare, what with the acoustic guitar and pacing.

baapre, I didn't even think of that! How funny. Nothing like a little overkill (... as an excuse for more alcohol anyway)

puchoo · Mar 23rd, 2008, 14:43

Well if its that then i dont think you will find too many complaining...irrespective of whether its a travesty or not..
