What are you listening to right now?

[sir_captain]

At this very second, Tom Waits' "Martha" is playing and it somehow seems appropriate.

[leeroysphitz]

1. "Fancy" by the Yeah Yeah Yeah's

[ghostsofgiants]

2. Death From Above 1979 - "Black History Month (Alan Braxe & Fred Falke Remix)"

[Starbucks Anarchist]

3. The Beatles (White Album)

Are you listening to Closing Time? Fantastic album. :thumbsup:

[sir_captain]

4. Yep

it really is terrific. I hadn't listened to it enough until recently and it was really like a revelation.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

7. I've gotten into Tom Waits recently.

I have Closing Time, Rain Dogs and Small Change. I would have Heart of Saturday Night right now, except UPS is full of douchebags who deliver only between 9 and 5.

:mad:

[sir_captain]

13. All excellent albums

And I'm guessing you could probably find his whole discography out there in the internets if you're into that sort of thing. ;-)

[Starbucks Anarchist]

16. You mean download them?

I would, but I prefer having the actual album on hand. That's just me. :)

[BarenakedLady]

5. atm

It's Gorillaz "Clint Eastwood" on iTunes.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

6. I am streaming WKSU classical.......

Kent State University......

Their music is just wonderful!

:hi:

[sir_captain]

8. What's playing right now?

I've been listening to a lot of Artur Rubenstein playing Chopin's Nocturnes--so gorgeous.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

14. I'm not sure.......I just have the RealPlayer up now.......

It's a string quartet ...I don't recognize it though......

My husband bought me new speakers for my birthday, and the music is just incredible!

:hi:

On edit: Mozart's String Quartet #4!

How about that?

[Manifestor_of_Light]

82. Unforgettable

I saw Arthur Rubinstein play a full piano recital at the tender age of 82. With three encores, including a Chopin waltz I had studied when I was around 11 or 12 and still love playing.

I was in high school when I saw him perform. Incredible! He was such a bon vivant. I found video of him playing stuff at age 85 on YouTube. I feel very fortunate to have seen him play before he left us.

His son John Rubinstein is pretty cool, I hear.

[WindRavenX]

9. "The Fountain" score

Really awesome.

[sir_captain]

10. Yeah? Did you see the movie?

I've been too busy to get to see it, but I'm a pretty big Aronofsky fan.

What's the soundtrack like?

[WindRavenX]

17. Lots of deep cello

The movie is trippy and very heavy in buddhist elements. I personally enjoyed such an existential movie, but it's quite sad. Visually interesting just to look at. But then again, I was indeed high at the time.

[sir_captain]

18. Hehe

well, considering his last movie, I think being high was quite appropriate. I read somewhere that none of the effects in the movie are CGI and were all done using macroscopic photography of various biological reactions--sounded really cool.

[WindRavenX]

19. You know, now that I think of it...

...a lot of the patterns did seem almost...familar to me. But I wrote it off due to the THC in my brain.

It's a flawed movie, though. But I enjoyed it.

[crim son]

11. The movie "The Last of the Mohicans".

STBE is watching it in another room.

[SPKrazy]

35. There Is A song In That

that is amazing along with the scene

just can't quite remember it at the moment

[fudge stripe cookays]

41. " I Will Find You"

Clannad, I think?

[SPKrazy]

43. I Believe You Are Right

it's an awesome song and goes with that scene so well that it is moving emotionally

:hi:

[NC_Nurse]

12. "Rakim"

by Dead Can Dance

[zingaro]

15. I love DCD. I'm hearing Mother Tongue right now. nt

[ironflange]

20. Nothing much

The fridge humming, the cat fountain gurgling.

[last_texas_dem]

21. "Why Lady Why" by Alabama

I don't listen to a whole lot of country from that particular era, but I like several on Alabama's major-label debut quite a bit, especially that sad-as-hell number.

(Plus, I'm willing to bet I'm the only DUer listening to Alabama right now!)

[Lyric]

53. I'm listening to Alabama too.

I have their Greatest Hits 2-CD set on shuffle. At the moment, "Old Flame" is playing. I love Alabama. :)

75. "If we couldn't laugh, we would all go insane"

Probably one of my favorite lyrics in any song that I know.

Getting back to the OP, this thread made me pop in Mark Knopfler's "Sailing to Philadelphia" CD (a recent purchase of mine). "What It Is" is playing as I type.

[Tikki]

28. "My Boyfriend".......

by the Suburban Lawns.

I just finished painting a couple of CD shelves that reprehensor built for us a few weeks ago. Why do I have a sneaking suspicion we won't need as many now?

52. Christmas music... fucking Christmas music

My 8th hour today and (doing some calculations) 96th hour since they started playing it.

On the positive side, only 78 hours to go.

[sir_captain]

56. Is this at work or something?

It sounds maddening, and I can't even hear it.

[Mojambo]

59. Yeah. I work at a kiosk in a mall

I swear I've heard Jessica Simpson sing Little Drummer Boy like 30 times in the last 2 weeks.

No human should have to endure this.

[femmocrat]

54. Celtic Woman concert on PBS.

It's a repeat, but still gorgeous. Oh rats... pledge break, click!

[BrotherBuzz]

55. Reg Kehoe and his Marimba Queens

I figure I'll have it completely out of my system after another dozen plays, or so. Actually, the music is inspiring me to consider starting film animation after a twenty year hiatus (do people still do film animation, or is it all entirely computer generated these days?). The music screams to be made into a Betty Boop genre cartoon.

70. So does my wife

I have the current temperature and the next day's forecast on my computer's tool bar. She could always ask me what the forecast is, but I think she prefers the television because she secretly enjoys that lame soft instrumental jazz they always play.
