Cat Stevens is brill. "Bitterblue" is my favourite by him. I play all sorts of music on the computer - Mika, Dixie Chicks, Levellers.

Re: What music is playing on your pc

Bitterblue don't know it, woe is me! but Ann2 what are you playing now? I apprieciate this thread could go on forever with zillions of titles i wouldn't never of heard of, but i thought it would be nice to see what every WAbster is playing. Music is also good for the soul as well as nature. Remember the days of the school yard is now playing- my Favourite.

Re: What music is playing on your pc

Hi Jez (and everybody),

I'm listening to 'Everybody wants to rule the world' by Tears For Fears, although that's not typical (that and 'Shout' are the only two tracks of theirs I've got). I prefer The Be Good Tanyas, Gillian Welch and Richard Thompson (all somewhat obscure, I know).

Only ever bought Cat Stevens' Greatest Hits Album, but thought it was very good. 'Wild World', 'Father and Son' and 'Hard-headed Woman' were my favourites.

I just thought I'd add to this thread because of something that happened earlier today. I was listening to The Band's brilliant version of Bob Dylan's 'I shall be released' while I was reading posts on a bulletin board. At one point they were singing the 'Any day now' bit when I read the exact same word's in somebody's post! Spooky!

Right, I'll go back to mis-identifying my wildflower photos now ...

Pete

Re: What music is playing on your pc

'the crickets'? Weren't they Buddy Holly's backing band?

Sorry, showing my age! (I think Buddy Holly was very good, by the way)

Tempted to start another thread - singers/groups with a wild life or nature connection in their name. For starters: The Beatles (almost), Def Leppard (almost), the Animals, The Hollies (definitely showing my age again!) - and Buddy Holly, obviously! What about Thunderclap Newman?

Pete (I know, I need to get out more!)

Re: What music is playing on your pc

At this very moment I'm playing stone Sour "made of scars"
I usually like to play my favourite music whilst on WAB,
Slipknot, Stone Sour, Foo fighters, Korn, Slayer, Metallica, I'm a self-confessed Metal-Head, if its ear-splittingly loud then I love it

By the way, excellent taste Colinaj (Pink Floyd), classic rock at its very best.

i agree , my wab sound track includes motorhead , deep purple , black sabbath, thin lizzy, sprinsteen, blue oyster cult, saxon, Guns and roses, and Nirvana.

also on there for light relief is rich halls excellent country and western parody "otis lee crenshaw and the black liars" the best of which is a track cunningly entitled "do anything you want to the girl but please dont hurt me" - a parody of garth brooks truly sick making "please dont take the girl"

Re: What music is playing on your pc

Currently listening to 'Urban Spaceman' by The Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band ... well, I was when I started typing this! Moved on to The Buzzcocks 'Ever fallen in love (with someone you shouldn't have )'

I do like Classical Music as well, but have yet to try listening to it when here on WAB. Think it would work well though.
