Legion World Forums LEGION COMPANION The Anywhere Machine Your latest favorite song

Just discovered this song and video today and am in that stage of love where you just wanna bang it 5 or 6 times a day!! If this style music is not your THANG, at least try to sit through it for the video, which looks like it could have been lifted directly from 80s Claremont X-MEN or NEW MUTANTS!

I've really been into Volbeat lately...

I first discovered them via a Johnny Cash cover - Sad Man's Tongue


So I checked them out, liked what I heard and bought the album.

For a while "Still Counting" was the song I liked best



Lately these two songs are competing for my attention

"Thanks"


"Evelyn"

It's not new but it's still fun!

Random old song I re-discovered today while bopping around songs by Berlin and New Order, The Church - Under the Milky Way

Tonight's favorite song... not because of the revenge fantasy, but because I found somebody new and you will never break my heart in two again!

Me and my Mom *loved* Donna Fargo's FARGO COUNTRY album. We had an 8-track (!!!!) of it back then; in the 90s I found it at a used record shop in Nashville; in the 2000s for a Mother's Day gift I had that album burned to CD (this was before I was all up into ITunes, besides, paying to have the album burned to CD seemed more present-ey). This is my 2nd favorite song from the album, and my latest favorite song!

Though this isn't my latest favorite song, it IS my first favorite song from FARGO COUNTRY and has been since I was a kid. The simple loss of a cricket and a bullfrog and then a sweetheart really broke my heart then, and the line "he never loved no one else" was daggers in my heart (good daggers I mean, meaningful daggers) as an adult.

Hmm. Imstead of hijacking this thread I think a new thread where I can drunkenly post all the country songs that warped me a child may be in order.

Finally got around to watching Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog, which was kinda fun.

Our Lives by The Calling - my own personal anthem.

When I drove home tonight I had Friday's Child (full album version) by Will Young on repeat. You have to love a good flute!

It ain't new but it IS my latest favorite! Thanks for helping me get over my ennui, Jessie and B.o.B.!

Give me the thing that I love
I'll turn the lights out
Put your hands up make 'em touch
Make it real loud!!!!

After following up the dance-electronica-pop masterpiece that was the album called THE FAME with the so-pandering it-bordered on-pitiful single "Born This Way", Lady GaGa lost me as a fan for the duration of that album's singles.

I think "Applause" is a return to uber-addictive hooky dance-pop form from her earlier days and I'm happy to be a fan again!

We'll have to see what the rest of the ARTPOP album brings though...

I heard "Applause" for the first time today, and I'm not sure what I think yet.

Time will tell.

I'm really, really hoping "Artpop" will be good. I thought the last album had only four songs that stood up to multiple listens.

Fannikens!!! Nice to see you.

I thought you would love "Applause" straight away.

I listened to it one time, and was like "eh" (mainly because I was still mad about BTW) but then a few hours later I found "Applause"'s stomper-heavy chorus coming back into my brain and-- to this very second-- it hasn't let go. Like much of the awesomeness of THE FAME.

Let me know what you ultimately feel about this song, please. *hug*

I certainly will, Lash. Be more than happy to.

It's great to see you back here, too.

Well, Lash, after hearing "Applause" a few more times and rolling it around in my head, I'm happy to say it's growing on me. I think what happened to cause my ambivalence at first was that my expectations were too high, I thought it would be something as immediately hooky as "Bad Romance" or "Poker Face." It's not the first time a Lady Gaga single took a while to engage me, in fact, her very first one, "Just Dance," was one of those occassions.

Now I feel more optimistic about the "Artpop" album.

Yeah, it's not a "love on first listen" song, but I def. think it insinuates itself in the brain and works its way in. Glad you are enjoying it!

I find the video enthralling. I just like the whole simplicity of it from the dance routines, the fun costumes and such. In fact I'm gonna go watch it again. *smile*

I'M A BIG FAN OF APPLAUSE. Even if I don't think the song is that catchy ... it's not so much worse than the rest of her other songs for such a backlash.

jeez.

The video is indeed good though.

APPLAUSE live, from the iTunes festival; The Lady does a relatively tame performance costumewise here, and I think it's nice to see her as near to plain as we ever have.

I swear I hear "Baby put your pants on."

Then it is number one on my "Your LEAST Favorite Song" list...

I shan't front... the only reason I knew the lyrics was because of this:
