Music

So this should be fun, right? Post your favourite fictional bands and/or artists from the big and small screen.

All of the other instruments are usually anyone's game to most people. However, many see the drums, bass and the electric guitar (not the acoustic as much) to be a man's game generally. That said, there are women that hold their own in these departments .

Rule: You match in the alphabetical order the name of the album, includes the name of the musician. Example: A - "Another Step" - Kim Wilde ....and started with the next letter

This may or may not be of interest.. For those unaware, Triple J is a national Australian radio station, and every year they hold a poll for the country's favourite songs of the year, called the Hottest 100. It bills itself as the 'largest music poll in the world', and gets over 1 million votes (every year seems to get bigger, with 2012/13 getting a record 1.5 million). It's a real institution in this country, and just this weekend they had a special mid-year vote for the 'Hottest 100 of the past 20 years', to celebrate the 20 year anniversary of the countdown. The list: 100. Beastie Boys - Intergalactic 99. Lana Del Rey - Video Games 98. Jebediah - Leaving Home 97…

The Kills is a rock band formed by American singer Alison Mosshart ("VV") and British guitarist Jamie Hince ("Hotel"). The Kills debuted in 2002 with the “Black Rooster” EP, released on Domino Records. The duo's debut full-length album, “Keep on Your Mean Side,” was released the following year. The album peaked at #47 on the U.K. Albums chart, while the single "Fried my Little Brains" peaked at #55 on the UK Singles chart. The Kills followed up with “No Wow” in 2005 which was the first of the group's releases to chart in the United States, peaking at #18 on the Billboard Top Heatseekers Albums chart. “No Wow” also charted in the U.K., Belgium, France, and the Netherland…

I'll start with a Pulp song, which was actually released on Christmas Eve last year, but who remembers that <_< It was written some years ago, but was just recently produced and released in this form.. dunno if it's a sign of more new stuff to come from them or not. I hope so though! James Murphy was one of the producers to work on it too - he sure has been getting around since LCD Soundsystem broke up

Being discovered on Youtube in the recent years has become a huge trend. I love finding new music and listening to covers. So here post your favorite artists and there original songs or covers. Avery is a very, very talented young girl who signed with Universal records. She has recorded music with producers who worked with Avril L., Cody Simpson, Justin Bieber, and Demi Lovato.

Pretty self-explanatory really... Post pictures of artists you think are hawt, either because they're talented physically, musically or a combination of both. Feel free to include the name, band and an explanation for your selection/s (so we can abuse google search). Fred, feel free to troll. I'll get things started with... Emily Haines She read a poem in the middle of her concert. A poem!!! Karen O Her energy is infectious Lykke Li Her voice *drool* Alessandra and Claudia Deheza (School of Seven Bells) Hot twins. Nuff said. Nanna Oland Fabricius (aka Oh Land)

Rock'n'Roll high school - The Ramones :hell yea!:

Who has been the greatest frontman ever? Freddie Mercury? Bono? Mick Jagger? Robert Plant? If you fancy a vote http://www.thisdayinmusic.com/pages/poll

You can pick and choose if you want. Rock as it was then defined was obviously huge (and probably more diverse than its ever been both style and ethnicity wise, imagine that :| ) in the 50s, but I'm assuming rock wasn't as much band oriented until the 60s? But do as you please . 50s-00s or 60s-00s. Or just one and come back to the others later...I was going to do a poll, but I wanted to give more possibility, plus its hard for a poll to make it in the music subforum trying to live on 70% ninja voters . You can disclose whether your list is your opinion of "best" or your favorites or you can do one for both if you like. Hard, soft, heavy, light, progressive, alternativ…

Beethoven for me.

New thread for a new year! :Dinah: Heard a new Shins song today.. can't wait for the album!

The Beatles The Rolling Stones The Who Led Zeppelin Dear fellow bellazoners, I understand there are more classic rock band and that thses aren't the only ones. These ones are usually just regarded for being "the best". Please, do not use this topic to bash and say "Oh, Well those bands suck. You should've used...", ect. If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say it all. Thank you! VOTE!

Could become a very good source to find great music from all over the world. My bands/artists that none of my friends ever heard about: A Counting Crows Chantal Kreviazuk Sarah McLachlan Siddharta

The divas of modern soul. Who's your favorite of the two? Musically, that is. Please don't judge looks, beauty, sexiness etc. here. Music-wise only! It's really close for me. I can't decide yet, although I think I'd give a slight edge to Joss. Or maybe... I don't know...

What songs do you think have made an impact on us? My first pick would have to be The Sound of Silence by Simon and Garfunkel That song can be used in every single decade since it's release Others: Imagine by John Lennon What's Going On by Marvin Gaye Like a Rolling Stone by Bob Dylan Yesterday by The Beatles

Seen a few complaints in another thread that rock has died in the new millenium, but I find this is totally untrue and this thread means to prove it. Maybe some have this theory in mind, because rock is different than it used to be, not such mainstream huge bands to hit the charts, but it is definitely there. Spread into different subgenres of course, but it has been like that before. I still see important bands continuing to put out great records as well as there are plenty new bands of course to rock the scenes. First example of a pretty new band with a recent song: http://www.mtv.de/videos/24230871-rival-so...ssure-time.html but see for yourself.

Tell us about the last concert you went to, or the concert you've been to , concerts or festivals you're gonna visit, or whatever. To start: i went to Greenday last night, i've been fan of greenday since i was 12 and was never able to see them live before. It was f*cking great

Old school hip hop describes the earliest commercially recorded hip hop music (approximately from 1979–1984), and the music in the period preceding it from which it was directly descended (see Roots of hip hop). Old school hip hop is said to end around 1983 or 1984 with the emergence of Run–D.M.C., the first new school hip hop group. However, some old school rap stations cover 1980s hip hop in general, occasionally extending even into the mid 1990s. The image, styles and sounds of the old school were exemplified by figures like Afrika Bambaataa, The Sugarhill Gang, Spoonie Gee, Treacherous Three, Funky Four Plus One, Kurtis Blow, Fab Five Freddy, Busy Bee Starski, Lovebug…

Rules: Write the name of the song above good or bad includes who signs this song. I am start..... "I Kissed the Girl" by Katy Perry

Just instruments. No voices allowed. My fave: Kenny G's Saxophone especially Can You Fell The Love Tonight?

I do think that we need a thread like this. There are so many music videos out there - good ones, bad ones. Some actually underline the message of the song, some carry the feeling of it. Just go ahead and start - any year, genre, singer/band. Doesn't matter as long as you feel the need of sharing it (out of praise or criticism and everything in-between...)

I would really appreciate if you could tell me if this Music Style Tree Diagram is correct.

Well it's almost like HOT or NOT & GOOD or BAD ..!! you're listening to the Radio .. and you heard a song .. so if you like it you'll keep On the Radio .. if you don't .. Turn Off the Radio .. so let's start .. You Raise Me Up - JOSH GROBAN ?
