You listen to some great music, scher. 8/10.
Canadian classic:

Wow, that was awesome. Reminds me a little bit of Kate Bush. 9/10
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C88yb-OVNmw
(I post the song that happens to be playing on my Ipod so got lucky probably! :p)
I love the one you posted, Juniper! 9/10 (Is that a tango?)
*edit*
Basil's> I simply cannot stand Kate Bush: 1/10! :cold:
One of my favourites: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zRdyDSbWg7w
Oh Scher. Life is depressing. 8.10.:DQuote:

Another Canadian classic, but cut from a different cloth:

I love that song 9.5/10
I guess we can stay in the great white north:

I love that song. 9/10

Don't have audio on this computer but will give it a 5 for the video! :p
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9hMrY8jysdg
I didn't bother to click the link, I'll just give it a....oh, I don't know, why not a 3?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JC7Q4tIrCbo
Me-ow.:D
As for the song: It got a little to peppy at the end but it was ok. 7.5/10.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iknEJf9cPeY
Haha, I HATE that song... 2/10
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4MSc_mMs7U
This is actually the first Piaf I've heard in English. Her voice is sublime in any language. 8.5/10Quote:

:) 8/10 that was likeable
Here's one....kind of strange to me:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IYl0uLrXP7U
What the!?! I've rediscovered this song and been listening to it non-stop the last few days! Freaky. Anyway, 9/10. I love it. Just curious, what do you interpret from the lyrics? Do you go in for the abortion theory?
My turn:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K1C48LDwruo
Sorry, I haven't been able to find the video clip one.
Started rather noisy but got better later on: 6/10.

I always thought the Bangles were, er, kind of hot. 8/10.Quote:

Not much of a fan of country but this one was actually soothing and in fact didn't sing about getting drunk. 6.8/10

Good old Edith 9/10
http://www.youtube.com/watch#playnex...&v=nZvehG_Lgls
Very very beautiful. Make me want to go to France right now. Video was a great compilation as well.
9.3/10
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wIBa88kLoIo
Never been a huge fan of that kind of music, 8/10
http://www.youtube.com/watch#playnex...&v=yPLrXFw76Qg
FGtH!
What's funny is that whenever I listen to music on youtube, I usually put down the video and do something else while I'm listening. Well I brought the video back up like in the middle of the song and was like, "this is the gayest thing I've ever seen!" :lol:
As far as the song goes, I've heard it many times before, but never have been keen on the 80's. That said, I still find this song to be a classic and makes me somewhat nostalgic when my step-mom would listen to it when I was a kid.
8/10
Okay here's super-nostalgia for me.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Riw7j9b8fM8
Haha, I think Bonnie Tyler's "Brighteyes" might be the only 80s video to be equally over the top.Quote:

The Bonnie Tyler video, name of the song is "Total Eclipse of the Heart" lol
Oh yeah definitley, that's great. Hmmm I suppose 80's pop is somewhat growing on me.
8.5/10
hmmm. . . . .

Great Dylan song, Rolling Stone magazine's poll put it at the number one song of all time, and it may just be ;) 10/10
http://www.youtube.com/watch#playnex...&v=jElUvFSBa30
Oh yeah, I've heard some of his songs, definitely digg the old folk stuff.
8.7/10
This has been in my head for months, it was the opening music for Eyes Wide Shut.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZYhZVqODYsI
Wow, unbelievably - a classic piece which I actually know! :eek: :)
I like the smooth sound of it. I find it hard to explain, but especially the first minute the sound is ... is ... soft?! Can you say that about music? I mean soft as in soothing and dreamy. Maybe I better stop talking now - just listen ;)
8/10
Sarah McLachlan - a great songwriter (lyrics!) and singer. Here is one of her less known songs:
Ice
That was awesome - thanks for posting that. I wouldn't have heard it otherwise because I can't bring myself to listen to her for some reason probably because I am only vaguely aware of one release that I didn't like so much.Quote:

Tori Amos :biggrin: Well, she rocks! No question about that. I like Crucify best, but this one is also mesmerising.
8/10
I heard this on CSI NY and I just had to find it
Fever Ray - Keep the Streets Empty for Me
On another day I could easily find this banal. But today, being tired and a little under the weather, I can dig it well enough. 7.3/10.Quote:

Sorry, but my taste just doesn't fit with country. 5/10
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1JH3O4HSs7g (this is from the French masterpiece Jules et Jim)
EDIT: Ugh I can't believe I posted such a low-quality version of the clip. Here's a much better one:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zqwLx...eature=related
I would never choose to listen to it regularly haha, but it has a certain charm in the context of the film 6/10
Here's some French Canadian music from the 20s, very folk oriented and different from France's music. Obviously, with much less jazz influence.
http://www.youtube.com/watch#v=2fNFx...eature=related
Haha, I also came across this one from the same singer which is outrageously offensive.
http://www.youtube.com/watch#v=Sp2M1...eature=related
Edit: Haha, not necessary to watch all of them, but I thought this one about Americans coming up during prohibition to drink was kind of cute.
http://www.youtube.com/watch#v=1Q3VM...eature=related
5/10 was too folky for me lol.
(my French isn't very good so I was somewhat oblivious to the outragessness of the second one :S )
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tv_DcRYX43o From Mulholland Drive, though unfortunately I can't find an actual clip so it's just the song. Oh well, it's a masterful scene in the film and IMHO Lynch's finest moment.
EDIT: Oh I really like the third one! 8/10
Haha, I normally hate that song in English, but she has a lovely voice. 8/10Quote:

Very good 7/10 made me think of this song, familiar to everybody I'm sure:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0kNEo8OxrT8
Sure :) There's been a time when I couldn't understand why that song was always so high in those "top 100 of best songs ever". Lately, I start to understand the beauty of it :biggrin:
7/10
Some easy listening rock:
Saving Jane - Imperfection
I especially like the lyrics :)
It started good but somehow did not live up to my expectation: 6/10.

In this case, I'm pleased to say that I think The Cure are a terrific, if limited, idea and when they first appeared (when I was about nineteen) I really liked Three Imaginary Boys, and then I really disliked The Forest, and after that Robert and I have had a kinduv on-off thing which we've come to understand how to live with. 8/10
Similar era. Incidentally, for unashamed pop music, this is the best bass player since McCartney.
