Cool! Nice to see someone who has the same type of interests here as I do... I try to listen to new AND old stuff, to keep "balanced" & somewhat current too.

Mostly yes... but, there are times it "gets to me"!

By that, since I consider MOST of it, "protests vs. injustices of life" etc. (& there IS plenty of that, imo @ least) & nothing I can do about it, except live my own existence really. Change begins with yourself, first, I think.

APK

P.S.=> I like "mellow" stuff too... there is a bit of that sprinkled into the mix above also, to offset the 'hardcore' stuff... apk

Beyonce Knowles, "IRREPLACEABLE"...

* God, she's GREAT... pretty too, besides being a great voice!

APK

**APK** · 11:22am

"Don't Change" by INXS... their 'first worldwide hit', circa 1983 iirc!

("I'm standin' here, on the ground: The sky above? Won't fall down - See no evil, in ALL directions! Resolution (of happiness) - Things have been dark, for too long (Don't change for you, don't change a thing, for me)... I found a love, I had lost... it was gone, for too long! Fear no evil, in ALL directions. Execution (of bitterness) - Message received, LOUD & CLEAR!")

* Excellent tune, great message, great beat, & all-around inspirational...

APK

P.S.=> Bums me out, these guys had their lead singer die on them, just as they were "hitting the top of their game" around 1990-1991 or so, no less, what a shame (one of my former co-workers is married to their drummer & told me the "real story" of it all, it is saddening)... I've been getting "into them" again & it makes me wonder what they WOULD have done, if they only hadn't had their frontman die on them! apk

"Wild Horses" - The Sundays

* What a great rendition of a GREAT classic tune (originally done by "The Rolling Stones" (gotta love Mick J. - imo, that guy's way cool!))...

APK

P.S.=> Most of the time, "covers" (redo's/remixes) ARE improvements on the originals, & this is NO exception... apk

**APK** · 02:31pm

"California Dreamin'..." - The Mamas & the Papas

What a song! It's literally a "dreamy sound" imo...

(This group's STRENGTH was their harmony of voice... amazing! Their voices mesh SO well, they're a pleasure to listen to, everytime!)

* Man! Love this one... because, one day, I aim to live in Santa Monica California!

APK

P.S.=> Boy, "Mama Cass" sure could "belt-it-out", what a voice... (Another 'great one' we're denied the presence & creations of, because she too, like the singer for INXS passed from existence young)... apk

**APK** · 03:14pm

LOL!

A "phunny tune" imo...

"Far Away Eyes", by the Rolling Stones!

(**** song's hilarious)

E.G. #1: "I was drivin' home, early Sunday Morning, thru Bakersfield... listenin' to gospel music on the colored radio station, & the preacher said 'You know, you ALWAYS HAVE THE LORD BY YOUR SIDE'... & I was so pleased to be informed of this, that I ran 20 redlights in HIS HONOR (thank you Jesus, thank you Lord!)"

LOL!

E.G. #2: "I had an arrangement, to meet a girl (& I was kinda late) - & I thought, by the time I got there? She'd be off... she'd be off WITH THE NEAREST TRUCKDRIVER SHE COULD FIND..."

LMAO!

APK

P.S.=> I like when the stones do their "country type thing" (which this song has DEFINITE style from) because usually, it's funny as ****... like this song, & I felt like a good laff today! apk

**APK** · Jun 12, 2008, 02:04pm

Oasis "Stop Crying your Heart Out" - from "The Butterfly Effect" soundtrack

* Great band, they did some really, REALLY good stuff over time (but, I heard they broke up (odd, 2 brothers iirc, no less))...

APK

P.S.=> Good film it comes from too, just for the record... do see it! apk

**APK** · 02:51pm

"Love is a LONG Road" - Tom Petty & The HeartBreakers

* These guys? They rock!

APK

P.S.=> Plus, not only have they done great music over time? I "like their style", as people!

What do I mean, by that??

Well, E.G.-> Once, years ago, while waiting to do a concert in Miami Florida (iirc, it was THAT city)???

They took their equipment up ontop of the hotel they were staying @ & began to play for FREE to the crowd...

LOL!

Their "impromptu show" up ontop of the hotel "locked up" the entire downtown area vs. regular automobile traffic, since so many folks stopped to enjoy that show, literally filling up BLOCKS of streets with observers!

(Yes, the police came & made them take down their stuff & stop, but... I thought it was PRETTY DAMN COOL & RIGHTEOUS of the band, & funny too, as to the results)... apk
