One of My Fave CDs...

[ShadowBoxing]

Hold on, I found a Michelle Branch song in my mass of downloads. I'm gonna try to listen to it...

...and fail.

If anyone is interested in some good pop, I highly (highly) recommend Kenna's albums New Sacred Cow and Make Sure They See My Face.

Excellent choices, sir.

This album is beautiful in its sadness. It's wonderful because it's so heartbreaking. Another 90's classic by one of the best artists in music today:

Interesting list. Only one will never be played on the Delilah radio show.

I like soft rock, among other genres. What's your point?

Oh, and in reference to all these albums you guys have been posting, the only one I've recognized so far is the "White" album. I don't listen to metal or grunge, and my appreciation of alternative bands is rather limited. Most of my personal music collection is made up of soft rock, contemporary Christian, country, a few soundtracks, and the odd modern rock album (such as "Away from the Sun" by 3 Doors Down).

Most of the albums listed here aren't metal or grunge. In fact, many of them are classics

I've been thinking about buying Appetite for Destruction on iTune alot lately. As a hugh 80's fan, I wasn't particularly enamored with GnR initially but I have become a fan over the years. I'm still on the fence for their Chinese Democracy but I'm willing to listen to a few songs and see how it is.

You should really check out GunsNRoses.com, they have the first single/title track from Chinese Democracy up. It's killer.

Buy CD's! Do you realize how much money artists lose when people don't buy their CDs? We're talking about the difference between the yearly incomes of a Target store supervisor and a part-time McDonalds worker. That's thousands (but not tens of thousands) of dollars. Do you know what artists have to do to make up for those losses? A single TV commercial or an additional city on their tours. Don't make artists go through that. Buy the CDs.

From what I've learned about this issue, the majority of the money goes to the record companies and not the artists themselves, plus CDs are too expensive.

 

[Addendum]

Depending on where one shops, yes. Used CD stores have some gems at great prices, generally under 10 bucks. Circuit City and Best Buy are generally around 12-15 bucks brand new. Stick with those instead of Borders or FYE where they cost about 17-19 bucks brand new.

I'll have to remember not to use so much irony on the Hype. So many people tend to miss it.

I know not everyone plays video games, but I think the soundtrack album for Jet Set Radio Future should be heard by gamers and non-gamers alike.

You know who has good cds? The Runaways. I could post an actual album cover here, but instead, I'm going to post this sexy picture of Joan Jett and Lita Ford...

Seriously, I want to get a time machine, go back to that exact moment, cover them both in cooking oil, and then do things that are illegal in some states to them.

Dude, you've never heard of Pet Sounds? It's a masterpiece of pop music.

Amen to that.

I'd call the majority of what you listen to "pop".

It was kind of like that skit on Sesame Stret, "One of These Things is Not Like the Others." That's all.

Is she still retired from music industry after having her baby and gotten married?

'Deja Entendu' by Brand New. A masterpiece on so many levels.

I'd call the majority of what you listen to "pop".

Well, the terms are virtually interchangable these days. Strictly speaking, the word "pop" originated as a shortened form of "popular", which could cover almost any genre.

Personally, "pop" reminds me of artists like Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Justin Timberlake, etc.

By contrast, "soft rock" reminds me more of older fare, such as REO Speedwagon, Styx, Wilson Phillips, Journey, that kind of thing.

I suppose people each have their own interpretation of the genres; that's just mine.

Anyway a real masterpiece:
