Keeping you in the loop - You guys use Accuradio?

I listen to the "Old School" subchannel of the "All That Jazz" station. It makes me happy.

Truly.

Who likes what?

It's pretty amusing, listening to this station. Just about any person who has to stand at my desk for more than a moment or two will ask me what it is I'm playing, they love it.

What do you think of it? The only complaint that I have on Accuradio is that they seem to go in a long cycle and over a few days there will be long stretches of time (an entire day, I mean) where the music is tooo slow or too bluesey. But for today, I am happy, for they are swinging. I like the swing, don'tchya know. It makes me happy.

Till later

Currently at hand for my car CD player:
Kill Bill Vol 1 (with movie clips edited out)
Buffy Musical Soundtrack
The Road North

No real connection between any of them, except that the first two are soundtracks. Even then, the first is a collection of older songs, and the second is all original. The third is primarily fiddle and piano.

Eh. I like 'em.

elf · 04-13-2004, 04:14 PM

Is The Road North folk/Irish?

I like Gaelic stuff - I have Karen Matheson sing me to sleep every night. She's got the sweetest voice in all the world, I think. I don't understand a word of it (it's in Gaelic) but it's almost like magic to me.

I would have guessed so, but apparently he's Scottish. They probably influence each other culturally.

Griff · 04-13-2004, 07:29 PM

Check out Karan Casey, really nice stuff.

OUCH. Country music hurts. Really, that's actual PAIN we're talking about there.

Though I do have to admit that while I know that country music has changed over the past few years, I haven't given it another chance. Too risky, dontchyaknow.

Sun_Sparkz · 04-14-2004, 05:42 PM

-2 points for sunsparkz. i thought you were kidding at first.

country music....especially NEW country...is the absolute bottom rung. does anyone know of a new country song that is NOT based on some tired ass cliche?

sunny, sunny, sunny. here i was trying to make you appear all worldly with my lesbian references......and you tear it all down with a couple of offhand country music posts. a shame, i say. a shame.

blue · 04-14-2004, 06:35 PM

SHUT UP LJ!, I think she's digging me.

Sun_Sparkz · 04-14-2004, 06:37 PM

come on guys!

maybe our aussie country is slightly different to your twangy cliche american country? ive heard american country (brooks and dunn ect) and its nothing like that!

fair enough most of the time its better to listen to some rock or pop but you gotta give it a chance! its all i ask!!
