[Borek]

Somehow that reminded me about

epeQwq-aYV0[/youtube]

 

[Max Faust]

I am what I am, so stop whining
For the love of God, I'm not
Hiding
I have accepted my faith
Man you look good.
Boy I can't wait

It's going to give me nothing
It'll ruin everything
But your kitty is a graveyard
And I'm dying to get in
Changing my ways,
Would prove I was wrong
So **** y'all. This life is too
Long

Ironic how the things
I end up pursuing
Are the same ****ing actions
That I hate myself for doing
I have free will
But I have chosen not to listen
This is too much
But at least there's nothing
That I'm missing

It's going to give me nothing
It'll ruin everything
But your kitty is a graveyard
And I'm dying to get in

Older than Jesus, but twice as
Bitter
So **** y'all. This life is too
Long

[Greg Bernhardt]

I think this is pretty neat!

[Borek]

Judging from how far down he goes, he is not an overtone, but undertone signer.

 

[Evo]

I loved that Greg.

 

[Kajahtava]

 

[OmCheeto]

I loved that Greg.

Ditto. I was first introduced to Mongolian/Tuvan throat singers in that PBS documentary about R. Feynman; The Last Journey of a Geniushttp://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=3164300309410618119#"

Interesting square bodied two(?) stringed violin thing he was playing.

Ahh! What's this?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2uf1lEawgTE"! Curse you Mr. Feynman!

And am I mistaken, or was that not a "jiggy jiggy" in there? Damn western influence...

 

[Max Faust]

I am probably born 50, maybe 100, maybe 10,000 years too late...

Morin huur or horse-headed fiddle

 

[TheStatutoryApe]

Should I be embarrassed that I know this song from a video game?

 

[Max Faust]

Can it get cheesier?

This is not on the youtube

if we're going to be children
for the rest of our lives
why then pretend to be husbands and wives?
and if we're going to be blinded
by the tiniest light
why not admit that we prefer the night?

do we take out our toy swords and guns?
or put out the white flag and run?

you are
my harbor
my knight in shining armor
and i wonder if sometimes you know
all you are
you are
the air
this drowning fool's last prayer
and tonight i would kill to be where
you are

if we're going to stay hungry
for the rest of this meal
i will confess at least how hungry i feel
and if there's anyone listening
while this tree tries to fall
please make a note it was my heart that made this call

and sometimes the demons take charge
and deal everyone the wrong cards

but you are
my harbor
my knight in shining armor
and i wonder sometimes if you know
all you are

you are
the air
this drowning fool's last prayer
and tonight i would kill to be where
you are

 

[Frame Dragger]

Paul Robeson's "Old Man River", the version sung by him (not Showboat).

'Sympathy For The Devil' and 'Mother's Little Helper' are pretty spectacular too.

I'm particularly fond of 'And The Band Played Waltzing Matilda'...
...

Finally...

NOTE: Contains a little coarse language:

I can never pick favourites... I just end up listing everything I have! *sigh*

Oh, I think you mean that your thanks is genuine? Thank you very much... what can I say, this is a fun thread!

This one is for my little brother. He just bought his first electric guitar.

He used to force me to listen to Ricky.

One of my old favs.

 

[Brian_C]

The Beatles - Because

 

[Frame Dragger]

The original of this song is Greek (of which I am half 1st gen). Fadle Shaker does a great job of an arabic version, but Sotis Volanis does the original greek. So, first, the arabic, then the mashup!

I have some good Kuwaiti friends, and we had a silly running joke of calling "ana bafakar feek!" at each other to spook the poor yokels down south (visiting Duke Med). Very good memories for me. :)
