It looks more like Debbie Harry.

I've been forced to assume it's Peggy Suicide judging by your usetitle.

[QUOTE=TheDMV]I don't mind Eminem at all. He has great flow and a great sense of humor. The problem are his stupid serious, emotional songs. He sacrifices lightning fast rhymes and catchy beats for shouted, angsty lyrics. Despite their usual important meaning, I find them too dreary.[/QUOTE]

I prefer some of his serious stuff to some of his really stupid trying to be funny songs. A[FONT="Verdana"]s[/FONT]s Like That was atrocious in every sense of the word.

[QUOTE=thickasabrick]It looks more like Debbie Harry.[/QUOTE]

That's what I was thinking too.

np: Stevie Wonder - Sir Duke

[QUOTE=MidnightRider]I used to like Eminem back in the day, but then I just altogether stopped listening to rap. Now all I listen to is a little [B]36 Mafia[/B] every now and then.

Jacaranda, who the hell is that in your avatar? It looks like Kirsten Dunst dressed up like a clown.[/QUOTE]
Makes sense seeing how you are from tennesse, some the rappers in 36 are pretty good

Ding, ding winner.
[I]Peggy Suicide[/I] is a concept album by Julian Cope who was a member of the Teardrop Explosion back in the day.

Oh, just saw Natural Born Killers, and let me just say, it might be one of my top 5 films of all time excellent movie. Anyone else seen it? Its very violent though but still great. I reckon if you haven't seen it EMH you'd like it, its written by Quentin. Oliver Stone directed.

[QUOTE=TheDMV]Harvest is a marvelous acoustic album, but for me, nothing can replace After The Goldrush. The songs are simple, and beautiful. The title track might be his all time best.[/QUOTE]

I completely agree. After the Goldrush is a stunning album.

Harvest actually disappointed me a little bit when I first got it. Sure you've got great songs like Old Man, Heart of Gold, and The Needle and Damage Done, but after that I didn't think it had a whole lot going for it. IMO the other tracks on the album fell from soft and meaningful to boring.

Harvest and On The Beach are my favorites. I'm looking into getting more Neil, so I checked out Zuma, and it's really cool. I'll probably buy that next.

I have After The Goldrush on my computer, but I haven't listened to much of it yet. I'll probably get that one after I listen to it more.

NP: CSNY - 4 & 20 (at Woodstock, thanks for that upload)

Sweet, I thought it looked like her. Anyone else find her extremely attractive? (in regards to her earlier days moreso).

Written by Tarantino and directed by Stone, it's bound to be an exceptionally violent and enjoyable movie.

Schyma, I think we have like the same tastes in almost everything. Which reminds me, does anyone have any Guthrie that isn't Dustbowl Ballads that they would be willing to send out? Just curious.

ya man Moody Blues is awsome. I can't believe that so many people don'y know Knights in White Satin! It was the definitive love song of our parents generation! If you listen to classic rock, Moody Blues is not to bew missed!

Anyways, i listen to zep, floyd, rush, acdc, moody, clapton, steppen wolf, greaful dead, B,S&T, Santana(seig heil!), the works pretty much, and i've just in the past year discovered a cool band by the name of King Crimson. Perhaps you've heard of them? Anyways, i've always thought that stuff like King Crimson and Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd was the best. Other bands that keep it very simplistic and unoriginal tend to bore me.

does anybody have

Lizard from King crimson
or
Workingmans Dead from the Dead (mine got deleted off my CP)

Its so weird hearing a good song on TV, i just heard Melissa on some commercial.

Today was an awesome day. First of all, for some reason I didn't go to sleep until around 3 in the morning so I was really tired and didn't feel like going to school and just cut the first 3 periods and drove around listening to Pink Floyd for an hour. It was cool. I'll get detention for cutting though. Then today, I had my first class of Popular Music in America. It was freaking awesome. We just sat in a circle and discussed music for 40 minutes. It felt like some of our discussions in this thread, just sitting around and talking about music. The teacher is awesome, he has the most diverse tastes of anyone I've ever met. He asked me what my favorite Bob Dylan lyric was, and I said, "The sun's not yellow, it's chicken." I've always thought that was an awesome line.

np- Deserted Cities of the Heart (live)

Bada[SIZE="2"]ss[/SIZE] alert! :p

That's cool though, I wish I had a class like that.

Heh. I am in the middle of exams so I got to wake up at 11:00. Then I listened to simon and garfunkle for a while, went and wrote my exam, listened to simon and garfunkle again and now I'm here. I'll probably go for a bike ride or something in a bit too. It's such a nice day today, although it's rather peculiar weather for midwinter.

Haha, the sun's not yellow, it's chicken. I love that. Tombstone Blues has some of the greatest lyrics, a little nonsensical though from what I've gathered.

I always thought "he not busy being born is busy dying" was one of Dylan's best lines.

I always liked the lyrics in Hurricane.

"Couldn't help but feel ashamed, to live in a land, where justice is a game."

Yeah I love that line. I think George Harrison said that was one of his favorite lines ever. Tombstone Blues has been like my favorite song for 3 weeks. It's so chaotic, the rhythm all seems like it's going to collapse any minute, and I love Bloomfield's guitarwork on that song. And the lyrics are so nonsensical and cool. Perfect song.

Simon and Garfunkel own.

And I had the lyrics to Hurricane in my sig on EF for a while. Actually, they might still be in my sig, I forget.

I think Dylan's lyrics in almost all of his songs are incredible. Got to say that Mr. Tambourine Man is my favorite song of his though.

Who else agrees that Dylan is terrible live? He wasn't bad on the Concert for Bangladesh, but in general I think he's a pretty lousy live performer.

I listened to Disreali Gears for the first time in a while, its a great album,

I pulled it out again because i'm doing a world civ project on the Travels Of Ulysses (the oddessy) and im going to play that song in the backround when i present it

I think Dylan can put on a decent live show, i have a bootleg from 66 thats really good.

Ya, I love Hurricane. The bassist in my band knows someone who can play the violin for it.

:lol: during my greek myths unit in grade 7 I played that song all the time.

123, The Byrd's version just doesn't do it justice.

NP: Dylan - All Along The Watchtower (Gotta say that I prefer Hendrix's version)

I think he was pretty awesome during the Newport Folk Festival.

I don't agree.

I like the Dylan version better too, but I know alot of people that prefer the byrds'.

Yeah, Mr. Tambourine has beautiful and brilliant lyrics.

I don't think Dylan is terrible live, I actually really like him live. In his defense, it is very hard to play guitar, sing, and play harmonica all by yourself and make it sound clean/accurate. If 50% of the guitarists out there played without their bands, I bet it would sound horrible. Bands help to cover up all the bum notes, unneccesary bumping and sliding and feedbacky noises etc.

And it's hard to sing like Dylan does when you are playing guitar, some of his stressed words/syllables really require a lot of effort and vocal power. I can assure you that playing guitar and singing Gates of Eden is surprisingly hard to do well, despite it being a very simple song. And if you did as much drugs as Dylan did, I doubt you could even remember any of the words! That is my argument in defense of Dylan.

From the small amount of live Dylan I've seen, I would say he most definitely isn't terrible.

And thickasabrick makes a very good point. Have you ever tried playing Blowin' In The Wind while simultaneously singing it. It's rough. (Though that might just be because I suck at guitar.)

From what I've heard he's good live. Although I have seen a few off moments of his.

From the footage of him that I've seen, he's pretty good live. But it was all from the 60's, and he might have weakened with age. I don't think I've seen any Dylan footage from after 1966.

[QUOTE]The Byrd's version just doesn't do it justice. [/QUOTE]

:eek:

The Byrds covers > Bob Dylan's originals

In every case (IMO)

And I'd say Bob Dylan is pretty bad live. Respect aside, the man should stay off the stage, or move towards improvement (IMO).

You Ain't Going Nowhere is 10x better then the original.

I prefer Mr. Tambourine Man aswell. The Dylan version seems to drag on too much.

On Last.fm the Dead has passed the Minutemen.

:O
