good thread for the lounge...
I'm mostly a fan of classic rock, so a list of my favorite bands would include The Who, Led Zepplin, The Beatles, Pink Floyd, U2, and Van Morrison, and sometimes The Rolling Stones.
Newer bands would definitely be Hootie and The Blowfish, The Wallflowers, and a huge favorite - Coldplay.
As for singers...Bob Dylan, Springsteen, Hendrix, Marley, Willie Nelson, Garth Brooks

R.E.M(still going strong)
Lou Reed & The Velvet ( old )
Goo Goo Dolls(still going strong)
Alice in Chains(dead)
The Byrds (old)
Incubus(pretty new)
Oasis(broken up)
As you can see most band that I like don't even exist anymore. The New Stuff in the form of Linkin Park, Sum 41, Yellow card are,in my opinion, bad and don't like them.

Elliott Smith
Each album had its own personality, but I'd have to agree with XO.In reference to Elliott Smith, greg45 wrote:Out of curiosity, what is your favorite album/song of his?
My favorite song of his depends on the mood I'm in that particular day, I think.
It's a toss up between "Independence Day", "A Question Mark" and "Son of Sam", for me.
The final verse on each of those 3 just floor me.
This is the track-list of the anthology CD that I burned to play in the car.
I consider the ones with asterisks the "essential" tracks.
- 1) Condor Ave
2) Christian Brothers
3) Southern Belle
4) Single File
5) Coming Up Roses
6) Alphabet Town*
7) Walking Down Alameda
8 ) Big Nothing
9) Pictures Of Me*
10) The Rose Parade*
11) Cupid's Trick
12) Sweet Adeline
13) Tomorrow, Tomorrow*
14) Baby Britain*
15) Independence Day*
16) Amity*
17) Bled White
18 ) A Question Mark*
19) Son of Sam*
20) Somebody That I Used To Know
21) L.A. Morning*
22) Wouldn't Mama Be Proud

Actually! Oasis is not broken up. They have never broken up and are coming out with a new album on May 16th. It's be their 7th studio album. Although they aren't popular in the states, they are still one of the biggest bands internationally. (They are my favorite, so I'm a little obsessed)The Shoegazer wrote:There is a list of my favorite bands ever! in () is band's current status

I sort of go more from album to album than artist to artist, an' just 'cos I love one album doesn't mean I have the back-catalogue of that artist (mainly for financial reasons). I range between variations of rock to folk and jazz, and at the moment my top fifteen I guess are (in a carefully random order):
Tom Waits- Mule Variations
Neutral Milk Hotel- In The Aeroplane...
John Lennon- Plastic Ono Band
The Pillows- Happy Bivouac
British Sea Power- The Decline Of British Sea Power
Cinematic Orchestra- Man With A Movie Camera
Flaming Lips- The Soft Bulletin
Sigur Ros- Agaetis Byrjun
Roxy Music- Avalon
Pink Floyd- The Final Cut
Francis Cabrel- Beaux Degats
Martin Carthy- Shearwater
The Album Leaf- In A Safe Place
Bright Eyes- I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning
Rushmore OST

I've found myself listening to a lot of pop music lately. I know it's late, but I just discovered Keane's "Hopes and Fears" album, and I think it's brilliant. Also, Ryan Cabrera's song "True". Just some things that are giving me the "LiT effect" recently.

fav bands
The Organ ( www.theorgan.ca ) 5 young women out of Vancouver BC gaining international praise...so many comparisons have been made to this band...Read the articles/reviews...listen the track samplings. I know this band really well..so if you want to know more...just drop me message.
Call me if you get lost...

" before we go, Im not as brave as I told you.."
if anyone listens to fiddle music, then you probably know Brittany Haas is (if you don't, she is, according to pretty much everyone, the best fiddle player in the world) ...Well, she goes to my school! I couldn't really recommend any of her music, as i don't really listen to that kind of music, but i'm sure it's all good (apologies for my ignorance...). And if you do listen to her, you might be excited to know that for her senior project, she wrote a whole bunch of new music, so i guess that means she might have new music coming out soon
Anyways..just thought you might think its cool
