Hmmm, I’m having trouble coming up with music I like that wasn’t made before I was born. :smile: Here is my attempt at posting some music from “my time”.



A contender for strangest music video.


Yes, I listen to the clean version. :smile:

These three songs were made in the late 90’s, not too long before I was born. I tend to prefer older music.

I like the Foo fighters and Queens of the Stone age. My son likes Greenday plus a load of stuff I don't know!

This song is about the Belovezhskaya Pushcha of Belarus. We must protect the remaining ancient forests.

I did not know this until recently that if you right click play triangle you have the option of looping the song, playing it over and over again, which might be appropriate for many of the above favorite songs.

I don't only like her, I am a fan already
Oh yes I am, and I have just bought tickets to Roskilde Festival in Denmark so I will see Sigrid and her band live on July 7... :woot:
It was more than ten years since I was there, and I'm going to watch some more bands that day, including Gorillaz...

(a powerful live performance by Sigrid and her band in a club is here, from Velvet Undergound, Toronto (04/11/18))

...and I am going to see the good rock band Monster Magnet live very soon in a pretty small club, I've seen them before
and they are very good live...

And a cool song (a bit "Stonesy"):

Ok, I know this style isn’t for everyone, but I hope someone enjoys these.

Please give these a chance but feel free to skip through, most of them are quite long.

One more



There is one chord change that gives me goose bumps - I think its like an Am7 on F# bass then to Fmaj7 where the words are "They'll make you a star" after LA is a free way

HP BD Burt - thanks for the 60s - you wrote some of the best bits!
