:lol: Hope you had a fun night. Blowing things up is fun. :smug:

Heard all four now. Good stuff. :cool: But was I the only one who expected Prospekt's March to be a little more.... march-like? :wacko: Can'twaitcan'twaitcan'twait! :bigcry: :dance:

Great video. Love it. :D Butterflies and Chris's little drawings, and spinning... good stuff. :nice: But although I know they do, it still makes me want to yell at them "Don't you ever change?!"

This thread makes me laugh. :laugh3: :laugh3: :laugh3:

Murp! :cry: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQ86n6ziHFA It's 13 regenerations for 14 Doctors in total. And the writers have already said they're going to have to find a way around it some day. It does seem to be a bit arbitrary- from what I understand the Master found ways to snitch extra regenerations and was given more by the timelords when he agreed to fight in the time war.

No idea what they have in mind, but STRAWBERRY SWING would make an awesome single! :nice: And I agree with whoever said it would be the perfect thing for coping with the winter in February.

^not anymore he isn't. :sneaky: They probably won't let him set foot on BBC property again. Besides, he isn't the sort Moffett would go for. I'm still hoping that David Morrissey is planning to stick around. He's great. ...............David!!!! Don't Go!!!! :cry2:

Yep, been there done that, bought the t-shirt. (I'm 26 now.) But my 20s have turned out to be fantastic- all the benefits of being a teenager without all the angst or rules. I was too old for my age as a kid... now everyone thinks I'm about 3 or 4 years younger than I really am. And no, I still have no idea how I'm "supposed" to act or what to do with my life. And I like it that way. People who think they do have a habit of changing their mind or getting blown off course.

I like watch a lot of video on it. Video takes up a lot of space. Makes those two hour bus rides home from school a little more bearable. Meh. Every time I try to take something off, it's exactly what I want to listen to the next day. I like having everything with me. And I wish I had the space to encode it all at much higher bitrates (I can tell the difference, even if the ipod zombies can't.) Of course the really wonderful thing about the Zen is it has expandable memory. But I need to have money for that. And if I did, I would probably spend it on cds anyway. :tongue:

Got my cd today. :dance:

:hat2:

Why choose when the two go together so well. :dance:

8GB Creative Zen. And I luuurve it. :heart: Great sound, brilliant large screen, small package. And built in radio for when I want some idea of the outside world. Though I do wish it had a lot more memory sometimes.

It's weird every time someone bumps an old thread of his and for a split second I think he's back. :wacko: I miss him too. He made me laugh. And think a bit. Though if some of the crazy stories he told had the slightest bit of truth to them, I really hope he's taking better care of himself now. :laugh3: He'd probably groan and wonder why we're still stuck on this topic if he ever reads this, though. :thinking: And yeah, there's lots and lots of people I miss from around here. And the board has moved on now that VLV brought some fresh blood to the place and got things moving again. But some people have a way of lighting up a room, and some people have a way of lighting up a board. Ditto.

Yay for parties! :D So how much longer is this? Not that I'm complaining or anything. Better tracklist than they sometimes do. :nice:

One good reason to be thankful for Tim Hortons, I guess.

1. Piano. beautiful. makes all the little hairs on my neck stand up. Good sign. Kicking in now, no lyrics yet. Techno-ish beat. Reminds me of Frank Mills stuff I listened to as a kid, in a very good way. Pipes now. :nice: It's the sort of melody I always wish I could write. Or at least play like that. Now it sounds all Celtic with the pipe melody...has someone been stalking me or something :stunned::uhoh: My heart feels like it's going to burst a little. Who is this? It's great. 2. Snow Patrol! :D "You could be happy..." Supposedly they had a real music box put together for the background bits, according to Gary. :nice: Random fact for the day. I go through love/hate phases with these guys, but it's definitely swung back to love at the moment, what with the new album just killing me with it's amazingness and all. I always like how the words sound so effortless for him like he's right there beside you whispering in your ear making it all up on the spot. 3. Chilled out guitar. French? Nice voice. Neat tone and easy to hear the words. Which is frustrating because I know just enough French to get scraps of what she's saying without context. Something about her house and snow and lights in the evening. Very relaxing, or at least it would be if I wasn't rueing how much French I've forgotten since school. 4. Don't know who this is, but I like it, though it's not exactly my thing. Acoustic guitar and piano. Sounds like an American. Now it's someone who's listened to a fair bit of Oasis. Now it sounds like they're trying to sound old- or may be old, but I don't think so. Good pop sensibility, anyway. His voice vaguely reminds me of Raine Maida from OLP. I like the lyrics in the chorus. 5. ...No alarms and no surprises please. :laugh3: Well... not alarmed or surprised, just like it said on the box. You know I have a friend who listens to some of the same stuff I do (or at least he used to) who upon getting his first ipod and shuffling it together suddenly declared that he had figured out what all the music he likes has in common- they all use a subtle amount of xylophone or other chimes in their music. Doesn't matter what genre it is, there's the xylophone. Realized it's about the same for half the music I like too. Random. 6. Dancing Shoes! :dance: Mental whiplash. :dizzy: Radiohead days and Arctic Monkey days are completely separate days for me, so it's a little strange to hear one go straight into the other. But not bad strange. Just brain cramp strange. :dance: 7. What the hooey is this? Must turn down volume in a hurry! Got me dancing along a bit, though. Sounds like another song I know but can't remember what with something else laid on top. Now it's changed completely. Kind of reggae? I liked the first part better. It's really neat, though- it's like there's two different things jammed together and it switches back and forth between them. 8. Quiet... glassy... Never heard the song but I may know that voice?.... Or not. Dunno. Ooh, 80's synths. Now this is the kind of new wave I like. :dance: See what I mean about chimes in songs? 9. Woah, big guitar. Interesting.The vocal just sounds so comical to me for some reason. It's got a good chuggy pace to it. I'm moving along. :dance: .....Yeah, and now that's why I don't like bluesy stuff normally... the guitar gets kind of shrill after a while. Makes my head hurt. 10. R.E.M.? Someone who's listened to a lot of REM at least... I'm not sure that sounds like Stipe. Big confession time... I'm not so big on REM. :embarassed: Some of their songs are so good, and other just do noting for me. Same goes for soundalikes. Oh, I'll get more into them eventually. It'll just take time. Ooh, a bit of piano. I quite liked that by the end. Good midtempo bit of something. 11. I know that voice. Who is it again? Yeah, it's one of the songs the radio around here tried to kill from overplaying, but the song was good enough that they couldn't quite drive the final nail in even though it didn't do much for me. Heh... away from the other radio crap it actually sounds quite nice. :nice: Who is that anyway? Can't remember. 12. Blondie! :D I love Blondie. I got that album on vinyl at a yard sale last year for 2 bucks along with Autoamerican. Good stuff, though I think it's my least favorite album. This song sounds better on it's own. The cover for this always makes me laugh. What was she thinking anyway? 13. Broken piano chord... tense quiet... moody... good start. Halfway through and it's still all ambient. Very warm ambient. A million images flooding through my head like bits of a movie. It's beautiful. Stirs up so many memories for reasons I can't quite figure out. Sort of like when you smell something and you remember every other time you smelled it? Love it. So much. 14. You know, there's some old interview clips of Chris talking about Warning Sign where he says the thing he doesn't like about the song is that it makes him sound like less of a jerk than he was being at the time the events of the song took place. So I'm listening thinking he's always so hard on himself, but then Jonny agreed he was a massive jerk at that particular time. :inquisitive: I'd love to hear that story if even Jonny was willing to be that hard on him in public for whatever he did. I have a live acoustic version of the song- I think it's from before the album even came out because the second verse is completely different. In that version he panics and does something terrible to make her leave...can't quite remember how it goes, though. I should look it up again. I love seeing how songs evolve like that. Such a good song. SUCH a good song. So good it needs to be said three times. :wacko: SUCH A GOOD SONG. :flutterby: 15. Neat guitar... heh, he sounds like Buck 65 right at the start, something about the tone of his voice. But now he's singing and sounds different. I'm liking this. Hey look, a chorus. *points* Ooh, now it's really getting into it. I really like. Weird voice, though. 16. Woah, piano. In the same key as the last song- I didn't even realize the track had ended for a second. She has quite the voice. Like the strings. Not something I would nessesarily go out of my way to listen to, but it's a good song. I like it. :) 17. Quiet piano. Oh, cut up looped piano. I feel like I should know this, but I don't. I bet you it's by someone I've heard before. DJ Shadow maybe? Very chilled out, kind of trip hoppy. Just my thing. :nice: Great way to go out. Well, that's my first impression, as it all happened. Now back to number 13 to dig up some more old memories before shuffling. Thank-you so much, that was a fantastic mix. Definitely what I'm falling asleep to tonight. You know you've heard a good mix when you finish it feeling all warm and fuzzy and refreshed sort of like you've been on a journey and gotten to the end and had a big glass of water and then everything seems new again. And that's exactly how I feel now. Great Job!!!!!!! :daisy:

:nice:

Well I'm not going to argue with you, but I heartily disagree. ;) :smug2:

Good grief it's past my bedtime... how did you guys in Europe stay up so late? :stunned: Goodnight.

Normal everyday address 1 a week or so. Not bad at all. The address I give to music sites about 10 or 20 a day but I asked for them. My college address 4 or 5 a day. All from the college for every irrelevant committee and whatnot happening on the entire campus. To the point I can't find stuff my profs sent me. :bomb:

Well if your speaking voice is anything to go by, you'd sound great if you learned. *nods*

yeah, the link was there on the page you linked to. You have a beautiful voice! :D

Aw.
