| Wagner's Parsifal. I am on an opera (re)discovery tour, starting with Wagner. After all four operas of Der Ring, der fliegende Hollaender, Lohengrin and die Meistersinger, this is the 8th in a row. |

Heard this guy last year on the radio, but there were no decent links I could give you then.
Found a few good links today though.
Enjoy Gavin James, a singer-songwriter from Dublin (one to watch)

Straight No Chaser's Christmas Albums. If you haven't heard them, you should check out their rendition of 12 Days of Christmas. It's amazing, from arrangement to execution.  |

Yeah. Electronic music and swing. Who knew those two things would go so great together? |

| I've kinda become addicted to Caravan Palace and, well, the electroswing genre in general. It's hard not to feel happy when listening to it. |

| I don't necessarily care for this commercial, but I really want to know what the music is from. It reminds me of the Road to Perdition soundtrack, but I'm pretty sure it isn't. |

"Somebody That I Used To Know" and "Eyes Wide Open" by Gotye.
It's all Courk's fault really. She posted the Star Wars parody of "Somebody," and I just loved the voice so much. It reminds me very much of Sting, so maybe I should just listen to more Sting instead. "Eyes" seemed to have an interesting message though, so that was good too.
I looked up Kimbra's solo work (she's featured on "Somebody"), but she's one of those artists who sucks on her own, imo. I love her voice as accompaniment, but that's as far as it goes. |

This thread doesn't get posted to enough. Which is a shame, especially considering the quality of the tunes in posts like Deception's. Some great bands listed there. Especially Something Corporate, who I'd never heard of before, but who seem like a really fun band, and who I'll be checking out strongly over the next few days. Nice one Deception!
For my part, here's a couple of great indie tunes from two top Scottish bands, Meursault, and Frightened Rabbit:
What You Don't Have - Meursault
The Modern Leper - Frightened Rabbit
Piece of advice. Turn them up loud
And post more to this thread, dammit! |

Aw! As half of the first (only?) marriage to meet via the GL I'd probably feel too bad to tell y'all even if we did break up
Mumford & Sons rule, by the way. I don't keep very up-to-date on music, but a friend who loves them also recommended Boy and Bear as something we'd like if we liked the Mumfords. I've enjoyed them a lot so far. I can hear what she meant with regard to the similarity between the two, but I can hear a lot of influence from Aussie rock bands of the '90s and '00s, too. Thumbs up! |

This is good to see. A few days ago I saw that you were the last person to post in OT, then I clicked on the Miserable thread and the post said, "I'm single again." I had connected these in my mind to you, and was still concerned for you even after I saw my incorrect connection. |

No Children - The Mountain Goats. Repeatedly.
...my marriage is fine, I swear! The last song that stuck in my head for weeks at a time was For Charles Bronson, so I'm pretty sure I just really really really like the Mountain Goats. |

So good. Why wasn't I born in Britain? Also, as if to highlight my love affair with Britain, Kate Nash. She's just fun. |

I'm listening to what I firmly believe is the best guitar instrumental of all time, Ocean by John Butler. Seriously, check it out. It's ten minutes long, but so, so worth it. Make sure you listen to the whole thing, and turn it up loud  |

One of my kids' favorites, and a staple CD in our car on long trips.
Don't let me be misunderstood, by the only guy who can possibly put more emotion in his voice than Joe Cocker, Elvis Costello. |

Right now I’m listening to Just the way you are. This song was sung by Bruno mars. I love this song, because this song has nice meaning.

I'm listening to a new radio station (98.7 FM in Jacksonville, NC). They call themselves a "Modern Rock" station, but it's "Modern" in the sense that it's not "Classic" rock. This means that it's mostly 90's and 00's rock with a bit of late 80's thrown in. Since that's the bulk of the music that I usually listen to, the playlist that I finally took the time to put together is now redundant.
(Currently listening to Sneaker Pimps - Six Underground) |

Be warned, the video/song is probably not kosher for work, but nothing worse than your average "sexy" music video. |
