What should I listen to?

[Left Is Write]

I've got my computer, my white port, and not a damn soul to share this stuff with. I need music. Or something. What should I listen to?

[BeachBaby]

1. Bob Marley and the Wailers!!!!

It's summertime - so it's time for reggae!!!! :hi: :hug:

[Xipe Totec]

2. Some awesome East German Rock

Silbermond - "Irgendwas bleibt"

http://link.brightcove.com/services/player/bcpid1305025354?bclid=336002323&bctid=10463767001

I realize that it's hard to appreciate music when it's not in English,

So, with my friend Google's help and some tweaking, here are the lyrics:


Irgendwas bleibt - (Something is Still Unchanged)

Tell me that this place is safe here
and everything is good here still.
And that the word that you give me today,
tomorrow you will keep.

This world is fast
and has constantly to be unlearned.
Because Temptations continue their deadline.
But please swear that when I come back,
everything will be the same.

Give me a little bit of security
in a world in which nothing seems safe.
Give me that one thing in this difficult time.

Give me just a little bit of a grip.
And just cradle me to safety.
Get me out of this fast time.
Give me a little bit of speed.

Tell me that something... is still unchanged.

Even if the world goes,
that 'here' is not affected.
.. Nothing happens ..

Give me a little bit of security
in a world in which nothing seems safe.
Give me that one thing in this difficult time.

Give me just a little bit of a grip.
And just cradle me to safety.
Get me out of this fast time.
Give me a little bit of speed.

Tell me that something... is still unchanged.

3. The little voice in your head that tells you to do bad things.

He's worth listening to. :)

[HopeHoops]

4. FREEBIRD!

What else?

[Left Is Write]

5. I can't listen to Freebird.

I got my fill of that song more than 20 years ago, and my ears will no longer allow it.

[BeachBaby]

12. DTBB!

:hide:

[Left Is Write]

17. Noooooooooooooooo!

27. zOMG Maybe you could alternate between listening to "Freebird" and "Sweet Home Alabama"

to take the edge off.....

[Aristus]

6. I'm listening to a CD of Mozart's piano duets.

That would go well with that summer port drink you described. Sounds yum to me! :9

[Left Is Write]

7. I think I'm more in need of "music that blots out thoughts of stuff that hurts" -

not sure Mozart can do that. :)

[Aristus]

8. Then try Wagner on full volume. That'll blot out anything.

I'm sorry you're hurting, sweetie... :hug:

[Left Is Write]

9. Right now I have on "She Sells Sanctuary" by the Cult.

I'd love to go for a run and burn off some energy, but I'm home alone with the kids and can't do that right now.

15. How old are you? In my limited experience, how old one is has a lot to do with

what music he/she will appreciate.

[Left Is Write]

Does it for me.
