Frenchie Posted January 13, 2008 Author Share Posted January 13, 2008 Well, if it s not weirderthan that then it s ok, LOL...My son likes the German " industrial metal" band Rammstein, and I must admit I like quite a few of their songs now...Rammstein " We ' re all living in Amerika"At least, they got the courage to sing in their own language.. and became internationally famous, that 's something I admire.

Angel Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 Courage??? Why does it matter which language they sing in? If they are good the music will come through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frenchie Posted January 14, 2008 Author Share Posted January 14, 2008 Well, I mean , you know that s how it works on the internional music market, if you want to become internationally famous you have to sing in English, cos the language rules..They took the option of sticking to their roots and sing in German, which I found an unusual yet brave attitude, that meant taking the risk of being limited to Germany. And many people say German is not a language to be sung. I don't share that opinion, I personnally like German as a language, but I don't like Spanish.. We 're all different , hey !!The rock scene in Germany is very developped. Go to Berlin if you got a chance; it s amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angel Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 Music if it is good enough will overcome language difficulties. I have an album by a band called the Yamasukis (Japanese and not a word of english sang) but the overall soundscape is enjoyable to me. With HM tracks often the vocals are sang at such a pace that you cannot understand them anyway so it is not a neccessity that they are sang in english.Haven't worked out youtube yet but am listening now to Britney Spears new single Piece Of Me. She may be having personal problems but this is a fine track. Maybe Krusty could post it for me until I sort out YT so that you guys can listen to it?

Frenchie Posted January 14, 2008 Author Share Posted January 14, 2008 Here s your song Angel. http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=G8OW51trzSII don't think she deserves wjhat is given to her in the press.. Yes, she may be facing personal problems, but hey, remember what the press could do to Diana.. I'm of course making no comparison between the two women, just saying both are famous and hunted by the press.Britney shaved her head, ok, so what? She seemed happy with her choice! I ve heard it s getting more and more fashionable anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angel Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 Thank you. Not a big fan of Britney but she has made a couple of good tracks (especially Everytime) and like Amy Winehouse has problems that need to be sorted, but then don't we all.

Kitty Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 Aahh. That figures. My first boyfriend was born in 1950 so would have been the same era. He died from lung cancer when he was 40ish - all those roll-ups he smoked when listening to Captain B.I quickly need to add that he was MUCH older than me...

raindog Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 For almost 80 minutes of pure unadulterated rythm and blues pleasure go out and buy Beefheart's Spotlight Kid/Clearspot. Two albums on one cd. You'll never regret it.[:D]This is the first song on the albumhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nwEKene6ha0&feature=related Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raindog Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 [quote user="Cathy"]Do you remember Alex Harvey? His music was similar to Captain B, was it not? [/quote] One of thehairyest gigs I ever went to was The Sensational Alex Harvey Band atthe Cock Inn, Muggington in the wilds of Derbyshire on a dark winter'snight. The place was packed with greebo's, all of them nutters, andbefore Alex came on several fights broke out. Half way through the actAlex slowly poured a pint of beer over his head and then combed it back in aperfect da. A great roar went up and everyone in the audience did thesame, all of us pouring beer over our heads and slicking our hair back with our fingers! You can imagine the smell in the car driving home with 4 guyssoaked in bitter, but by then we didn't care.[:D]edit: I don't believe it! The Naughty Word software has edited the name of the pub. Isn't this going a bit too far? This pub exists for christ's sake and the word is for a male version of a chicken. Surely we're adults here aren't we?[:(] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
