I think this band and this song in particular is massively impressive. Live, they are astounding. Young but playing together for years, it shows. he end section is anthemic and brilliantly complex (from a composition perspective)

Sean, as you know I visited your site. I love your music and you can count me as a fan!
Listening to a lot of Stevie Wonder stuff lately. Really getting to appreciate just what an absolute phenomenal talent he really is. Love Ebony & Ivory (with Paul McCartney, another musical genius). Always loved songs with a change in tempo. Macca's "Live and Let Die" is one example. Kansas' "Carry On Wayward Son" right down the line to Black Eyed Peas' "Imma Be" (Yeah, I like BEP. They've got funky tunes. Heavy beats but just light enough for when you're in a mood to dance and not get involved with the lyrics and story behind a song.)

Of course Stevie has written some great pop tunes like the ones you mention. I rate him as possibly my favourite all rounders because he can sing, write, play and do all of this beautifully with variance and originality. His magical period for me will alwayd be the early 1970's when he penned such masterpieces as Talking Book, Music of My Mind and Songs In The Key of Life. Mind bogglingly brilliant. I love and hate the brilliant bast*rd!

3 classics I keep coming back to. These are probably the best type of music I enjoy, I call them art music, actually i wonder what you classify this music under, is it pop/rock?... I think about how Fool's garden got the idea and the style of this song soooo right, what triggered their imagination???
“We keep on working, we do our thing,” Vettel shouts over the team radio, “We are who we are!”
"Vettel is a champion. That’s not referring to his achievements, but rather to his approach to everything he does. He wins. All the time. His preparation is meticulous, his attention to detail reminiscent of Michael Schumacher at his peak, and his performance on the track is almost always flawless. Vettel is capable only of domination. He knows no other way... Vettel is not in Formula One to be liked. He is there to win. And in the words of Ayrton Senna, perhaps the greatest of all Formula One drivers, “Nice men don’t win.”"

Two songs that I like to listen to around the end of the night. The Thomas Dolby one just blows my mind. It's new wave so it's not a surprise I'm into it, but really my first inquiry into the "Blinded Me with Science" guy.
This I had mentioned earlier, caught it on an episode of a hockey show on HBO that I really enjoy (it's all sorts of behind-the-scenes cameras putting the game in a personal context with uncensored in-game audio; would love to see them do that stuff in the ever-secretive world of F1). It's not often something "new" catches my attention, which might still mean that it's total crap, just total crap that I like.
And then there's just more of the usual stuff you'd expect from me. Roland Orzabal's "Tomcats Screaming Outside," some of Curt Smith's recent live covers (particularly of Radiohead's "Fake Plastic Trees"; one of the comments says his voice is stronger now and I agree). Prepping some Don Henley and Mr. Mister CDs for my commute since I've gotten fed up with trying to find good radio. Revisiting an old favorite of mine, "Naïve Melody" by Talking Heads, the song in Wall Street. I absolutely love that song, means a lot to me given where/when in my life I first heard it. Heard it again for the first time in ages and now it's been in the regular rotation.
Kind of like Bob Dylan's son, Jakob, and the band he used to front, The Wallflowers, too, for something that's not really what I normally listen to. Knew their big hits from the 90s, exploring more with the news they're getting back together and jus to keep myself sane with more things that aren't from the 80s. They performed live with Bruce Springsteen once, which is good enough for me, Jerseyan that I am.

Indeed. You know, I think it was Stevie that changed people's perceptions on blacks in music (yes, I can say this as I'm mixed race
). By that, I mean in the 70s, there was a lot of blaxploitation, blacks were supposed to sing songs the way Boney M and Carl Douglas did. Stevie sang, wrote and played music differently. Not for a fast buck, or for the fame, or to cash in on what was cool. He didn't give a f*ck about cool. He LOVED music. Lived and breathed it. Wrote what was in his heart. The only other artist before Stevie who did so was Jimi Hendrix and you know how much I worship that man! Stevie made it possible for blacks to get out of the niches set for them (music wise) by society - jazz, blues, blaxploipop. I don't know if you'll see it the same, but this is how I see him. A leader, inspiration and pioneer of his generation. I've heard people say music has no colour. That's the way it should be. But it does. What do you see when you think of country & western? Rap? Bluegrass? Jazz?

I don't know what to make of "Huang Chung" (self-titled debut from Wang Chung) but I've been listening to it a lot. As much as I love sell-out commercialized Wang Chung and all, this is pretty cool to me (and probably only to me).
Also wondering if "Ti Na Na" off the album became "Dance Hall Days." I don't really know anything about music, but they sound so much alike.

Glad to see there's some good music discussion going on here. I actually run my own music website so this is my kind of thread. For those discussing Tame Impala earlier - fantastic band. InnerSpeaker was one of my favourite albums of 2011. It feels a bit older than last summer though, for some reason - probably because there's been so much great music between then and now. I believe their next album has very recently finished being recorded, so give it a few months and we could have something new from them. Perhaps a little more experimental than the majority of suggestions in this thread - but has anybody checked out Grimes? So far she's probably by tip of 2012. Her debut album Visions is fantastic. Best way to describe it would be dream pop, but it's very nostalgic - gives off vibes akin to some 80s synthpop. Anyway, judge for yourself. If you want to check out my website then check out the link in my sig.

InnerSpeaker was one of my favourite albums of 2011. It feels a bit older than last summer though, for some reason - probably because there's been so much great music between then and now. I believe their next album has very recently finished being recorded, so give it a few months and we could have something new from them. Perhaps a little more experimental than the majority of suggestions in this thread - but has anybody checked out Grimes? So far she's probably by tip of 2012. Her debut album Visions is fantastic. Best way to describe it would be dream pop, but it's very nostalgic - gives off vibes akin to some 80s synthpop. Anyway, judge for yourself. If you want to check out my website then check out the link in my sig.
Still love Tame Impala, but I know what you mean about the album. Very much looking forward to their next one. Grimes is interesting, not sure I like her, but she's interesting!

nniiiiccceeee... you actually made me check out the band... on my list to get....
I still need to check out the rest of their stuff, but that song is great! I know it's great because I posted it on Facebook and nobody liked it
Only heard it because it was used on a football documentary (of all things) I was watching, called QPR: The Four Year Plan, which is quite a good watch, if only to see Flavio Briatore being his usual reserved self on it. Anyway, it's good to 'accidentally' discover new music like that..LabradoRacer, on 13 March 2012 - 04:35 PM, said:
I like Radiohead a lot. Can't decipher the lyrics, I simply enjoy the instruments.
This one is a cool song & vid.

Radiohead are another band who I need to listen to more.

Quite a lot of good music here. But I wonder.
Live music has an emotion, a power, that the recording studio sometimes erodes. I could post youtube videos of great music left and right but I'll narrow it down to the few that lit my soul.
Take notice around the 3:20 mark when Stevie sings to Lindsay. Damn.

I love Cyndi Lauper. Totally. Completely. This is how she exists in my memories, a bit stoned, a bit odd, and a sound straight from the soul. Her current live releases of this song are too smooth, less raw. I don't know when this video was shot, but it's perfect.
I went through the internets looking for a suitable live version of The Motels that fit my memories and failed. Saw them live back in the 80s and saw them again a few years back and nothing on the internets captured the feeling. The hunt goes on.

One last one for Bruce (pumpdoc). We got to talking one day on this subject and he didn't hesitate on his pick. Nirvana. All apologies from MTVs 'Unplugged'. I agree with Brucey.

I can't say I listen to any of those three with much regularity (and maybe I should, since Cyndi Lauper filmed a music video in a house that my family owned at the time), but I totally get it when I listen to those live versions. There is so much feeling in that and it's tremendous. Great, great stuff. I absolutely love listening to live music, wish I could go see live music but it just doesn't happen with the bands I enjoy most, so I'm stuck with YouTube, live releases (which get polished of course), and studio demos which also feel raw (I enjoy demos a lot, because a lot of the music I like can feel too synthetic at times).
These two do it for me, both link to YouTube:
http://tinyurl.com/btl7tep - Simple Minds "Someone Somewhere" from 1982. I have always really loved this song since I first heard it, but live, in their prime, with that lineup (not quite the original but probably the best one they had)...it's something else.
http://tinyurl.com/c69za7 - Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds "Crush." Everyone, and I mean everyone, around here loves Dave Matthews. And I was like "eh yeah whatever when DMB comes on the radio I don't turn it off, but I mean really..." and then someone told me to listen to him live and now it makes sense.

My picks weren't an endorsement of either song, just my picks. They're special to me, and probably junk to others. So it goes.

Oh, it wasn't a knock at all on your picks or what has meaning to you. It was more of a "holy **** those were so powerful I saw songs/artists that I knew but hadn't paid attention to in a completely different light."

Have you ever done this? [Mod edit: #1 songs on day of birth]
My number #1's are:
'You're So Vain' by Carly Simon in the US
'Long Haired Lover From Liverpool' by Little Jimmy Osmond in the UK
'Ben' by Michael Jackson in Australia
See which songs you get
