Electric Light Orchestra - Roll Over Beethoven
(Apr 26, 2013 - 07:54)
I use "A 5th of Beethoven" by Walter Murphy as a ringtone for my cellphonemessages. In Worldwar II Dutch resistanceradio used the original 5th of Beethoven as the begintune for Radio Oranje (Radio Orange), which was at that time send from England to inform the Dutch and to support  them mentally.

AC/DC - It's A Long Way To The Top
(Apr 12, 2013 - 06:20)

Hell, this song really sucks! {#No}



U2 - Staring At The Sun
(Apr 12, 2013 - 04:10)
Bono's voice is starting to annoy me...!

David Bowie - Wild Is The Wind

Funny: people seem to like the song or to really hate it.
I think the song's great! 

Porcupine Tree - Time Flies

I heard this song live at the Ahoy-stadium in Rotterdam (2001 I think) sung by three ladies: an awsome performance but unfortunately I haven't  found that version yet...{#Cry}
  Recently I found out that the song I ment was Dirty Work, but nontheless, I don't have the song. Pity!

Tom Petty - Breakdown
(Feb 28, 2013 - 07:40)
A long time ago, way before internet, a movie called FM about a radiostation was released. This song was one of the songs played in the movie. My favourite band Steely Dan wrote the titlesong, so my special attention was aroused. Many of the songs were good or great (including this one) and I used to listen to copies of the songs which my elder brother had copied for me on a taperecorder (one with large reels of tape). There was some magic about artists (for me esp. Steely Dan) because they never came to Europe so they seemed to only exist in my imagination. Nowadays the world is so much smaller and the magic has gone. Such a pity.

The Smashing Pumpkins - Violet Rays
(Feb 14, 2013 - 06:56)
the beginning of the song reminds me of Pink Floyd...

Cool song wich is also caused by Quinten Tarentino.

Dylan is an overrated artist... Lyrics may be brilliant (according to many) but that's about it.

help, I accidently rated this song an 1, but I didn't want to rate this song at all: I don't know it well enough to rate. But it's worth absolutely far more than 1, lets say: 6, maybe rising to 7 or 8.

Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers - Running Man's Bible
(Jun 25, 2012 - 05:22)
http://www.nu.nl/muziek/2843455/eddie-vedder-gast-bij-tom-petty-in-hmh.html 

AMSTERDAM – Soms zijn er van die concerten waar je bij geweest had moeten zijn. Die van Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers in de HMH was er zo een; voor het eerst in dertig jaar in volle glorie te bewonderen in Nederland.   
NU.nl/Paul Barendregt

Fans onder de veertig hebben Tom Petty mogelijk nog nooit live gezien, of ze hebben er een reis voor naar het buitenland moeten ondernemen. De kaarten voor zijn show waren prijzig en de HMH is voor zijn doen intiem. Hoewel Petty in de VS volle stadions trekt, moet de man in Nederland met minder genoegen nemen.

Zijn humeur is er niet minder op, want zowel de bebaarde zanger als zijn metgezellen sprankelen op de bühne. Te beginnen met Listen To Her Heart. In hoog tempo volgen diverse hits van het collectief, waaronder I Won’t Back Down, Don’t Come Around Here No More, Here Comes My Girl en Free Fallin’.

Ook Handle With Care van Traveling Wilburys (de supergroep waarvan Petty deel uitmaakte) komt voorbij in een sterke, natuurgetrouwe uitvoering, waarbij toetsenist en gitarist Scott Thurston de vocale partijen van Roy Orbison voor zijn rekening neemt. Een andere cover is die van Oh Well van Fleetwood Mac.

Pearl Jam

Petty heeft nog wat verrassingen in petto voor het publiek. Zo speelt hij onder meer minder bekende nummers van de albums Wildflowers en zijn meest recente plaat Mojo (uit 2010, nu heruit met live-cd). Voor het nummer The Waiting haalt hij Pearl Jam-zanger Eddie Vedder op het podium, tot groot plezier van de toeschouwers.

Vedder keert aan het eind van het concert terug voor de toegift, in de vorm van American Girl, hoewel hij niet alle hoge noten haalt. Hij mag het met zijn eigen bandje nog eens proberen in de Ziggo Dome deze week, al zal Vedder hard zijn best moeten doen om Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers te overtreffen.

Please, somebody, STOP this man!!!



Soul Coughing - Lazybones
(Feb 22, 2012 - 09:55)

John Mellencamp - Paper In Fire

David Gilmour - On An Island

It's so funny: either you seem to hate this song or you like it a lot. There seems to be no in between. You might say that Gilmour is kind of repeating himself whit this song, but still I like the song!

Tears For Fears - Head Over Heels
(Jan 11, 2012 - 02:09)

My sister-in-law already used to be a fan of them in the '80s: I "discovered" them in the late '90s: what a shame!

Peter Murphy - Cuts You Up

Dire Straits - Sultans Of Swing

Hell Freezes Over is a great album. This version of Hotel California is much much better than the studioversion, which is played till boredom. Pretty Maids in a Row is also great as is Wasted Time!!


Oi Va Voi - Refugee
(Dec 09, 2010 - 00:01)
great song, great album!

Broken Social Scene - World Sick

Wrong notes? There is no such thing.

Bad Dynamics? I think you better look up the word dynamics in the dictionary.

Off-tempo? That's the point.

The list just goes on? The list of the musical terms that you obviously have limited knowledge of.

It's ok to dislike a certain type of music, but don't critique unless you know what you are talking about. The whole idea behind music like this is experimentation. Unfortunately, too many people like nice, clear, linear, beginning-middle-end, types of music.
Don't you crave a surprise now and then?
I love it when a song goes somewhere I don't expect it to.
 

Oops! I also wanted to make a critic note about this track, now I don't dare to. I think you certainly have a point. I am absolutely a MD fan and jazz is my thing, but this track: I think I need to get used to it. Only heard it for the first time now, so lets give it a try!

Bob Dylan - Positively 4th Street

He may be great in an objective way, but this music is "not my cup of tea" which also is caused by Dylans whining voice...

Broken Bells - Citizen
(Nov 22, 2010 - 07:32)
This song, which I just heard for the first time, reminds me of a song of Phoenix (I believe "Too Young"). Well, I think I like it (as I also do Phoenix).

2raumwohnung - Ich Weiß Warum

Es gibt ja viele Deutsche Leute hier am RP. Toll Nachbarn zu entgegnen! (Entschueldigung wenn mein Deutsch ist nicht ganz korrekt).

First time I hear this song and I think I really like the song, allthough I don't know if I would purchase the album. Germany sometime really breeds good songs (as Belgium, France, The Netherlands, Italy, Spain and other non-english speaking countries do). I always thought that songs sounded best if sung in English, but I know better...{#Cool}

The Beatles - Girl

Back in the early '70's as a little child my elder brothers had a tape of The Beatles (and tapes of other bands). For summerholidays we went to France by car, which had one of the first radio-cassette-players. Unfortunately my brothers forgot the others tapes to take with them, so the entire holiday we only heard The Beatles play. So I thought The Beatles were French and still so many songs of them I associate with that summerholiday. A warm memory, though.

The Moody Blues - The Story In Your Eyes

Always have ambivalent feelings about The Cure. I'm not very familiar with their music, but their first album,  the one with "a forest" etc, is a very good one.
Surprisingly, after all these years they try to still look the same as back in the '80's, which makes the performance in my opinion rather a caricature!

Did I hear it correctly and does Steve Winwood sing with Los Lobos?

Los Lobos - Angel Dance
(Feb 03, 2009 - 05:58)

From a distance (my PC) this sounds like Steve Winwood



Aaron Copland - Fanfare for the Common Man
(Jan 29, 2009 - 23:51)
Ough! Please skip!!!


Graham Parker - Don't Ask Me Questions
(Jan 29, 2009 - 14:27)
I prefer the live version which is really great

Stevie Ray Vaughan - Riviera Paradise
(Jan 29, 2009 - 05:29)
Great, relaxing!!

Porcupine Tree - Dark Matter
(Jan 29, 2009 - 02:47)
Don't know PT, but this song is awesome!!

The Wailin' Jennys - Calling All Angels
(Jan 23, 2009 - 06:49)
Boring!

Gustavo Santaolalla - Deportation/Iguazu
(Jan 22, 2009 - 03:55)
without its context it sounds like a long intro: when will the song actually begin?


Leonard Cohen - I'm Your Man
(Jan 16, 2009 - 03:21)
Great song! The whole album contains great songs.

Does Leonard sing completely sobre or do I hear some alcohol in his voice? Sounds good anyway!

The Frames - The Cost
(Jan 16, 2009 - 03:11)
drums remind me of a song from the first album of The Cure, some parts of the song remind me of Kravits (including the voice) and some of Radiohead: anyone else? Nice song!

Madrugada - Hands Up - I Love You
(Jan 16, 2009 - 03:07)
Nice song!

Bruce Lash - Psycho Killer
(Jan 15, 2009 - 08:59)
Damn, is this camp-crap or just a joke?

Elvis Costello - Pump It Up
(Jan 15, 2009 - 05:10)
That annoying organ in this song: so repetitively whining and irritating. I've got a CD of Costello's with his best songs ("the best of"?) and I always skip number 3 and 4 (I believe). The rest is good indeed.

God is an Astronaut - Remembrance Day
(Jan 13, 2009 - 03:46)
The beginning of the song reminds me of David Sylvian (Gone to Earth).

Madeleine Peyroux - Dance Me To The End Of Love
(Jan 12, 2009 - 06:34)
I prefer Leonards live-version

The Cure - Lullaby (extended mix)
(Jan 08, 2009 - 07:03)
Please skip this version next time... A waste of time which could be used voor really good songs/music.

Thomas Dolby - I Scare Myself
(Jan 08, 2009 - 05:03)
very nice song!

Pink Floyd - Shine On You Crazy Diamond

Quite a nasty remark! And don't get me wrong: see also my comment of December 18th. I was referring to, for instance, a referee in a tennismatch asking for silence for the players to concentrate, in this case the listeners to fully enjoy the song.
Besides: living under sealevel does not necessarily mean living under water! A quick Google could learn that.


Pink Floyd - Shine On You Crazy Diamond
(Jan 05, 2009 - 07:09)
Silence please!!! Thank you!


Coldplay - Cemeteries Of London
(Dec 19, 2008 - 06:15)
Damn, can't stand Coldplay anymore! Boring voice. Their first album started out good but soon got boring. Since than I can't stand the music. Please skip next time!


Pink Floyd - Shine On You Crazy Diamond
(Dec 18, 2008 - 00:54)
Absolutely astonishingly great! Loudspeaker blowing!

Pink Floyd - Us & Them -> Eclipse

THE BEST… Beats Mozart, Miles, Marley, Garcia and everyone else!!!



 

I do not fully agree for Mozart, Miles etc. aren't completely compareble because of different musicstyles or even something completely different. But YES: in their musicstyle (whatever that is) they're the greatest whether you like the music or not. The same goes for Steely Dan!


Elvis Costello - Radio, Radio
(Oct 31, 2008 - 03:23)
Damn irritating and annoying organ! Elvis has some more songs with a symmilar organ: I always skip those if possible!

Johnny Cash - Ghost Riders In The Sky
(Oct 24, 2008 - 08:18)
Camp as it is!


Steely Dan - Aja
(Oct 09, 2008 - 07:57)
Only just tune in: my favourite band! Aja was the first vinyl-record I ever bought, second hand... Damn good, it still is, as all of their records.


Steely Dan - Bad Sneakers
(Jun 04, 2008 - 14:43)
The Dan are always my "origin and refencepoint" from which I judge other musicians and music.
When I first learned about The Doobies, way back in the 80's, I thought Michael was black: such a warm and soulful voice he has! The illusion and the magic, though, were somewhat shattered when I saw/heard Donald and Walter playing back and forth the part of the track with the voice of Michael in the song Peg ("Peg, it will come back to you") on You Tube. A pity, in a way: now, when I hear "Peg", I have to ignore what I saw and heard on You Tube. Knowing how a song is "made" in the studio can be rather disillusive...
