What are you listening to, right now................

A few pages back I mentioned re-discovering a favourite band from the 80s 'The Sound'. Flicking through some old live clips on YouTube and came across this cover by their lead singer of one of the best songs ever written (IMO), Love will tear us apart. <br>

I have heard Bowie covering this, Iggy too, and The Cure, but this stripped back interpretation is brilliant. Reminds me a lot of Johnny Cash's versions of Hurt and One<br><br><a class="bbc_url" href=" -

<p>sort of along the same lines as jegga (although at least you can listen to this song) i fucking like this at the moment, mainly because i think this chick is sexy as all fuck. 2 fingers of my left hand....</p>

Been listening to some 70s Elton John today at work. Live version of Benny and the Jets is fucking massive. <br><br>
Also been listening to some Stone Temple Pilots. To me their stuff still plays well. Listened to some Temple of the Dog and Pearl Jam, we are having a nostalgic day at work, and they sound kind of dated. STP sounds good though. Nirvana is fuckdn hard to listen to these days.<br><br>
Wutang got the most cheers today though.<br><br>

<p>Where was this rather lame jibe a few pages ago when I was talking about my love of guns n roses?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Or actually after about 90% of the posts people write here when what they are listening to are not up to the modern hipster, or Tim, standard?</p> -

<p>I was just sort of perplexed that you were not aware of it earlier? It was rather inescapable ...</p>

<p>Where did I say wasn't aware of it earlier ... ? I live in Asia, not a cave!!</p> -

<p>This came up on a recommended list my wife was listening to. Added it immediately to my running lists. Cracking tune for it.</p>

<p>Now that Prince is dead Pharrell is THE musical genius of our times in my opinion. Fuck I love his work a lot. Ridiculously so. Tough going listening to NER*D on a recent roadie with my boys and trying to edit out the swear words as we sing along in the car though. "Dumb ass, girlfriend, fuck my friend, she's a ho" isn't really a line I want a 6 and 8 year old thrashing out. Just the kind of shit to get me in ( more ) trouble with their Mum.</p>

<p>This little ditty may have had a bit of airtime in the car.....</p>

<p>Very cleverly done but makes it sound too much like something you'd hear in a lift or while on hold with a Telco company.</p> -

<p>No shortage of things I've classed of as assaults on my eardrums in this thread - but, that's quite likely the worst.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Makes you wonder why they bothered wasting money on the soundtrack and didn't just release the video as a silent movie. They could have used the money they saved (about ten bucks?) to hire someone hotter than Kim Kardashian to stand in the shower. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>If people are allowed to say they don't like/get Bob - can I say the same about Kim Kardashian. She looks like a duck. Now I quite like ducks, but I struggle to see them as sex symbols.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Still, as the guns and strippers thread shows - it's a wide world. :)</p> -
<p>what the fuck are you on about? On the piss?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>You're talking about Dylan, but i don't get it. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>And i like Fleetwood Mac. Lindsey Buckingham was fucking good guitar player, and those bitches could sing. They also created some of the best rock and roll stories of the 70s, dysfunction and drugs for the win</p> -

<p>I like Buckingham, not a fan of the rest, background music and very dreary..... Big Love is a top 80s track........</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Also this, underated singer and guitarist.</p>

<p>Actually Stevie Nicks did a few good stuff as a solo artist, I guess it's the other one I didn't like.</p> -
<p>This may be the worst record of all time. Michael Bolton, back when he was Michael Bolotin, covers <em>Time is on my side</em>. Amazingly bad:<br><br>

<p>again, it's not new, but I'm digging drum and bass outfit Rudimental's stuff at the moment. Their videos are pretty dramatic (i love this video)</p>
