The Cult- I, Assassin Theory of a Deadman- Hate My Life and a change of pace for me, after catching it on an episode of House, MD- Mazzy Star- Into Dust Just voice and acoustic guitar, so haunting though.

Brazilian stuff right now:
"Made In Japan," "Imperfeito" and other giddy stuff from Pato Fu.
(BTW, if there's a Portuguese-speaker in the house who knows even a cursory translation for a song called "Nome De Guerra" by singer-guitar goddess Joyce Silveira Palhano de Jesus and Paulo Cesar Pinheiro, let me know. I'll be your friend forever. Searched the net high and low and found nothing.)

DB, yeah, I figured out the title.  There's a nice little snippet of the song here . Joyce and Pinheiro are both hugely prolific artists, but even on several directories of lyrics in the original tongue, I couldn't find transcription. Hard Bossa is a wonderful disc.

Every once in a while, I'll encounter music that I've somehow gone my whole life without hearing, then - the first time I do - I realize I've been incomplete without it. It happened a couple years ago with Nina Simone, again last year with Leadbelly.
Last night, I heard for the very first time, the album, "Astral Weeks" by Van Morrison.
OH... MY... GOD!!!
If, like pitiful Exnihil of yesterday, you have never listened to this album, stop whatever you are doing and find it. It is, very possibly, the most beautiful album I've ever heard.

"Illusion Suite," from Jane Bunnett's Spirituals and Dedications.
Dean Bowman (not to be confused with the pro football player of the same name) is the greatest vocalist that nobody's ever heard of (because he's always a sideman on others' discs).

The three opening songs and the three ending songs for the anime "Kimagure Orange Road". Kimagure means "whimsical", and the series itself is like the triangle they had between the founders.

I so misread this as LEAST favorite song. My bad.
I'm just your average middle clas white guy and I listen mostly to oldies, and one I can't seem to get enough of is Roy Orbison's version of "I Drove All Night."
Sorry, I think most of today's stuff is crap. Showing my age, I guess.
Long Live all them Legions!

"Chinese" by Lily Allen. A bittersweet mother-daughter relationship song whose title refers to sharing Chinese food and watching TV together.
Really, there's not one bad song on her second album, "It's Not Me...It's You."

Don Cherry's "Until The Rain Comes" from Multkulti. Of course it's pouring like mad here, but the song/cd is just as great as it was nineteen years ago. Cherry 's not around anymore, though the composer of the song (and producer of the CD) definitely is. (Peter Apfelbaum: Piano.)

Lately I've been listening to Chris Cornells solo stuff. then there's the oddball stuff by guys like Webb Wilder (Tough it out, Human Cannonball). Several diffent versions of Wicked Game (Chris Issaks and HIM) and I hate to say it, but I've found as I get older that screaming angsty androgenous rock really doesn't do it for me. I've been following some (shudder) country music. The men sound like men. I've always liked the Bellamy Bros. and some folk are remaking their stuff. Nina Simone still knocks about in my playlists. Occasionally I'll plop in an old cassete and hit some Del Amitri or KWS. Robert Cray is still in there. Brian Setzer.
And of course I like the oldies, like Elo, but oldies radio around here only seems to play the same thirty songs over and over.
I Also have the BBC sessions for Led. The songs were different and still good. Oddly, while everyone seems to key in on Stairway to Heaven or Kashmire, I like Tea For One better. Hotdogs a kick as well.
Damn you, you kids! Get off my lawn or I'm callin' tha cops!
