MUSIC CENTRAL!!!
 

Please, anything and EVERYTHING pertaining to music:

*Favorite song. Performer. Band. Orchestra. All time favorite songs, time periods of music. New songs.

*Music trivia... (facts and questions).

*Post the MOOD you are in through a song! Let us know that if you like... open up to us.

*Lyrics - like beautiful poetry to me it is, or the specific reality of "feeling" something painful or sad through the words. Perhaps something worded to help deal with your frustrations(?) Please post them here if you wish.

*Melody's. How does a melody appeal to you or make you feel?

*How about that "rhythm"?!

*Photo's of bands, performers that you love, (or any other artwork type of same...)

*Music interpretations. Lyrics, melody or art/videos. What does it mean to you on any given level? For example, I like to watch video's to see what the artist's take of their song is - or how they choose to "share it". (And to see if I was even close! But, sometimes like MY own take of something - if the artist is open and welcoming to that of course!)

*Personal experience with music and/or your love for it. Special memories!?

*Music stories, songs about your own writing, or where you are taken back into time when you hear a certain song, or are in a situation and the song comes back to you. What does it mean to you? Please share.

*A song to dedicate for whatever reasons. Share your love, pain, memories, doubts, happiness, growth, etc... through music.

*New artists and performers you currently like.

*Old performers or bands [gone] that we MISS.

*Writing about various music genre's you enjoy, or posting songs of such. Share it all!

*If you play any instruments and/or sing, have ever performed - solo, or in a band, etc...

*If you've written music and/or lyrics. IF you have a music "block" and are struggling with that.

*Do Karaoke?

A place to share ANYTHING regarding music. Very broad based here. Old and new... and anything I haven't thought of here to mention.

This is everyone's thread. I just really needed it to be here. Life is one big musical to me, and one of my primary areas of interest and pleasure - as well as for personal communication and sharing! I hear music in everything. From a beautiful view to the sound of a stream or the wind blowing through the trees/leaves. Or, simply any "situation".

And sometimes I just need to rock out when driving the car and belting out a tune while banging on the steering wheel. I sing in the shower at times too. And I dance when I am in the mood - when I am alone or in a public place, (not really for dancing, like in a grocery store)!

Please enjoy ALL. Don't be shy...

Trivia question:
 

WHAT ALL FEMALE band is considered to be the FIRST really true mainstream "hard rock" band?


(Clue: One of these performers became well know to many of us as an out lesbian performing at the early Mich. Festivals.)

Hee, hee Diva it's even easier to do here than elsewhere. Just go to YouTube and find a video you like. Look to the right hand side. Where it says URL, just copy the address that is in the box (http...) and then just paste that right into your post. Voila, the video appears.

Or I can be your DJ. :D

Did you see Adam on the music awards? I guess folks flipped out a bit over his performance. He was on the Ellen show last week, and offered NO apology for his cutting edge performance - while still remaining humble and true to himself as he spoke about it. GOOD FOR HIM!! (Plus, he did an Ellen show "jingle" for her while he was there, and she played it, just shaking her head in disbelief at his talent!)

Now, Susan, did you see that she has an old back song, (before she got famous) that is actually better [IMHO] than the one that we all heard - from that talent show that brought her newly into the media spotlight)?

It was probably posted on the last "site" we were at, under the Susan Boyle thread. You may have already heard it there. But, it was years back for/from a "benefit" of sorts... (?) Charity perhaps? The name of that song eludes me right now - but, a well known song. It's beautiful!! And crystal clear powerful.

So, when is her album coming out? Oh, it is out now, but you must order it? My sister is "in LOVE" with her voice!

Oh, I gotta tell this story!

My niece was raised to be a dancer from early childhood ON... Seriously raised!

My sister had the "usual" problems between mother and daughter. And I always knew my niece was involved for years and years with dancing - and to this city and that she went to perform - as a child. Then, I went to see one of her performances while out west before she graduated from high school.

I sat by my sister, who had her video cam on the whole show... and I'll tell ya... (!) When my niece came out and performed - I said to my sister right then - "Oh my god, so what if she is BITCHY with you, she DESERVES to be"! LOL!!!!!!

My sister got to giggling... as I sat there stunned at her daughter/my niece's performance. What a dancer. Wow. I looked at her completely different from that point on! (Right or wrong?) She knew I grew up musically, and was the only one in my family who did... (Well, my father was a drummer, and my mother a pianist, but once they got married, I never saw it! I didn't know this until I was into my adolescence).

*Thank you Snowy for this, it reminds me of THAT night... (SMILE!!!)

Selenay, this is an absolutely BEAUTIFUL song!!!!!

I haven't heard (listened to) this style of music in a LONG time - and this just brought back a TON OF MEMORIES, and artists I haven't heard in a good long while. I will do so now!

Thank you so much!!!
