The World Of Music

Hey WoMers. Anybody interested in doing this? I would be curious to see other people's results. I could have a set time every day where I change the subject to reflect what day it is (since it could be tricky with so many time zones and such). Thoughts? day 01 - your favorite song day 02 - your least favorite song day 03 - a song that makes you happy day 04 - a song that makes you sad day 05 - a song that reminds you of someone day 06 - a song that reminds you of somewhere day 07 - a song that reminds you of a certain event day 08 - a song that you know all the words to day 09 - a song that you can dance to day 10 - a song that makes you fall asleep day 11…

Theres this song that I heard today and it said 'Viva La Vida' and 'Coldplay' in it I dunno what the song is :cry: Does anyone know it???

I hope I'm not on my own here, but ever since Spotify entered my life I've been using it to impart 'my wisdom' friends may call it something somewhat different..) on others in the genre of music, and have received likewise in return. I think it'd be cool to get something vaguely along those lines going on here, even if it just turns into a Spotify link-dump thread. Some ratings of other people's links would be nice :) This track is by a band I just got into, the Vaccines, and resonates a bit for me personally, while being an absolute belter of a tune. Enjoy.

Mercury acts Arcade Fire, U2 and Killers to stop releasing physical singles Record label set to rely on downloads instead Mercury Records, the label home to U2, The Killers and Arcade Fire, is to stop the production of physical singles. Except for on "rare occasions" the label is to rely almost entirely on downloads for its singles output. Mercury lost money on singles releases in 2010. It will now only create physical singles when, according to company chiefs, "it is guaranteed to make a profit," reports the Daily Mail. The label is also home to Elton John, whose 1997 single 'Candle In The Wind' remains the biggest-selling UK single of all time. Figure…

So it's been a month since TKOL has been released, which I guess seems like a good amount of time for people to digest the album. So where would you rank this album as of now compared to the rest of their catalog? For me it'd be: In Rainbows Kid A/OK Computer HTTT The Bends Amnesiac TKOL Pablo Honey

It’s that time again! For the Coldplaying Mixtape exchange! The past times it’s been run by Eglantine, Redgirl76, Kite (Dargarius), and The Escapist. It’s super simple to participate and ubers fun! The basic idea is that everyone who wants to gets together a list of songs that they enjoy and that they think others may not be familiar with, but will like, or I dunno, a bunch of your faves, put them on a mixtape prepared for another Cper. Everyone on Coldplaying loves discovering new music and this is a fun way to do just that! These rules were copied off the 6th mixtape exchange thread and made by Redgirl76 :D Rules: 1. Sign up saying you want to participate. pos…

What are some good bands to be on the lookout for this year, particulary from the UK region? I don't mean angsty indie snobs either. Or better yet, what are some albums to be on the look out for in the coming weeks?

Their debut album came out summer 2010 and it is just fabulous! Every song is short and catchy, very summer. ~*~ Love it ~*~ [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Sj5_WITMpA]YouTube - Best Coast "When I'm With You"[/ame] [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_fjMYI33E8Q]YouTube - Best Coast - Boyfriend[/ame] They also recently played Letterman Anyway discuss :dazzled:

Okay... who of you likes this band? I think in my eyes they are the best pop group on the planet. The Pet Shop Boys did some of the best pop songs ever since 20 years. An incredible long time for a 80s pop group. "Very" from 1993 is in my Eyes one of the best albums ever. ... What do you think about them? Although they don't make rock music but electro pop I nevertheless think their music is very open and honest and also creative and innovative (I'm not just talking about "Go West" or "It's a Sin")... Their first Greatest Hits Album "PopArt" is going to be released next month ... sorry for the advertising ;) ... but everyone who loves good pop music MUST have this comp…

http://www.nme.com/news/genesis/55350 Phil Collins finally confirms retirement Ex-Genesis man's publicist had said his client wasn't retiring After much public confusion about his future, Phil Collins has confirmed he is retiring from music. The drummer/singer made the announcement on his website, Philcollins.co.uk. The message came after his publicist denied that he was planning to stop making music. "I am stopping so I can be a full-time father to my two young sons on a daily basis," he wrote. Collins also reacted to recent press stories about his wellbeing. "Many of the articles printed over the last few months have ended up painting a picture of m…

I don't care what language Swedish, French, German I love international music :wacky:

ok, since seems there's no proper thread for those genres, here it goes. (thought country is covered by some alt-country artists) if it i'll be better i can make a proper thread for the 3 genres separatedly. so, any fan, artist you like of those genres? i'd find it :facepalm: if there will be none since in my view are the 3 main genres that originated modern music as we know it -at least for 3/4 of XX century- as it influenced many of the greatest bands/artists that ever have been around. i noticied there's a revival of those genres in a way with fusion genres or subgenres of those, so i guess there should be any fan here, rite? show up and share your know…

I totally forgot or decided to give it a try, I needed more space on my mobile 'being the cheapy' trying to save yuh know. some of the music came out okay because it was a higher bit rate, 112kbps is just not good enough.So dont try and be cheap or stupid. i have a 8gb phone 'I know its small'.What gb do u have? I guess the best way is to put music on there u listen to frequently.But I want to listen to all Prince records which is a major catalogue.I've not been into his stuff but its time to learn as they say from the genuise. Thankfully i had a back up of all my music,it just takes a while to transfer.

i was a very big fan of kraftwerk way before Talk and i think they are an awesome band whose influences are still felt strongly in today's music... anyone else here a fan of the Mensch Machinen? ;)

Well I have this job on Friday and Saturday nights where I tended bar during Jai Alai season, and the place is having concerts starting in April. My job is kinda like a In town Roadie, where I am backstage at the bands beck and call, I run out on the stage to change out water or drinks and replace towels, and make sure nobody enters their dressing room and I get to be with the band to make sure they get whatever they need. Englishman Dave Mason is Apr.2, and they have 3 more bands lined up, but have no Idea who they are yet. Just thought I'd share:)

Anyone else into them? The Knife is a musical duo from Sweden formed in 1999. The band consists of siblings Karin Dreijer Andersson and Olof Dreijer, who also run their own record company, Rabid Records. Silent Shout was named the best album of 2006 by Pitchfork Media. At the Grammis awards in January 2007, The Knife won in all six categories they were nominated in: Composer of the Year, Music DVD of the Year, Producer of the Year, Pop Group of the Year, Album of the Year and Artist of the Year.

I figured it would be better to post it right here where everyone could see it, as opposed to in the WoM section, where no one really goes at this point. Anyway, I would like to thank everyone who participated and helped make this happen. :smiley: Now, if everyone is ready, I'd like to get this started. First, to announce the awards that didn't quite work out. There weren't nearly as many as I thought there were, but there were a few. These include: ♦ Most Underrated Album ♦ Best Cover (band/artist) ♦ Best New Artist Introduced to Forum That's about it. I was able to sort through everything else. So, if you guys are ready, I'll go ahead and get this show…
