Author | Topic: Music on both sides | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Glordag Inactive Member |
I apologize if this question has been raised before, but a quick search did not pull anything up for "music", so I just assumed that meant it had not.
I was wondering what types of music everyone listened to? Have there been any serious studies (not biased studies aimed simply at disproving or tainting the name of one or the other) into what music people of different religious affiliations listen to? Is there any correlation? I somewhat doubt a relation could be shown with an honest survey, but I could very well be wrong. It would be interesting (to me, anyways) if some of you would be so kind as to reply stating your stance (with religion or just the creation/evolution battle) and your favorite genre and band. Just a thought. Myself:Agnostic/Evolution Alternative Rock/Classic Rock - Weezer/the Beatles I have plenty of other favorites, but the thread would probably lose some of its point and get rather clunky if everyone listed every band they liked.

As my name implies, I'm planning to become a Christian minister, although I am an 'Evilutionist' as deemed by some of my peers.
Progressive music is the best, and if you don't know what progressive music is, then you need to kick yourself. Rock and country are prime examples, and being half redneck and half latino I can't help but like country and mariachi, while rock is just awesome and everyone needs to listen to it. Now. Some of my favorite songs- Godsmack-Realign, Serenity, Runnin' Blind3 Doors Down- Duck and Run, Away From the Sun, Same Road Metallica-Whiskey In the Jar, Master of Puppets, 4 Whom The Bell Tolls Garth Brooks and Clint Black-(Basically every song) Stevie Ray Vaughan- Crossfire, Tightrope Red Hot Chili Peppers- Californication, Other Side, Fortune Faded Linkin Park-Breaking the Habit, Feint Randy Travis- 3 Wooden Crosses, Better Class of Losers Man, could there be any more awesomeness on one post than all those songs mentioned together? Wait, let me think, NO. It's just not possible unless I add more songs that rule. But I don't know if the rest of you could take it... (Edited in) Oh, and 50 Cent Sucks!

I'm more into alt-rock and good classic rock. I like some pop and some of the happier rap music (I hate the so-called gangsta style, but I do like some of the Roots, the Black-Eyed Peas and Outkast / Big Boi). At this moment Murray Head's One Night In Bangkok, one of my favorite 80s tunes, is playing. I like the version that opens with an orchestral dance then suddenly, almost violently, breaks out into a rap about the city of Bangkok.
Some favorite artists (can't possibly mention them all, but to give you an idea - and in no particular order): Jimi HendrixLed Zeppelin Incubus Weezer Tool / A Perfect Circle Little Richard Pink Floyd The Supremes The Beatles Stevie Wonder The Rolling Stones George Clinton / Parliament / Funkadelic Little Feat The Doors BB King Ella Fitzgerald Ray Charles The Smashing Pumpkins Nirvana

I'm a radical skeptic.
I only listen to classical music. Favorite composers include but not limited to: Bach, Mendelssohn, Mozart, Neilsen, John Adams (not the president), and Beethoven. Favorite instruments: Clarinet, piano, violin, flute, and cello. Favorite clarinetists: Micheal Collins, Larry Combs, Me, and especially John Bruce Yeh (which I currently worship as my god).

Glordag bewails:
quote: Only the greatest Southern Rock band ever! They weren't as widely popular as Lynyrd Skynyrd, but they were infinitely better. Some of their best-known songs (most if not all written by their late, great band leader Lowell George, one of the finest slide guitarists of all-time, Bonnie Raitt notwithstanding): Dixie ChickenFat Man In The Bathtub I Can't Stand The Rain Willin' (Linda Ronstadt recorded a popular cover of this one) Cold, Cold, Cold Rocket In My Pocket Don't Bogart That Joint Oh, Atlanta Rock And Roll Doctor Sailin' Shoes Skin It Back BTW, thanks for the kind words.

Lowell George was good, but do you really think he stood with Ry Cooder, Blind Willie Johnson, Taj and Dire WolfF?

Not in the world of traditional blues, no. In rock, yes.
EDIT: Since you brought it up, though, I would add a couple of the names you mentioned to my original list: Ry Cooder and Taj Mahal. I can't speak of Taj without mentioning the fine work he did on one of the all-time greatest TV movies: Sounder, the non-sentimental but still heart-wrenching story of a poor black family of sharecroppers in rural Louisiana during the Great Depression. Powerful stuff and great music! This message has been edited by berberry, 06-21-2004 03:47 PM

I'm glad you brought this subject up, Glordag. I've had a very difficult few days (nothing tragic, I've just been doing a lot of hard work) and I'm relaxing today, mostly by listening to music. I love to talk about music and since we have a thread available to do so, I will.
I was listening to Louis Armstrong and Ella Fitzgerald's Stars Fell On Alabama and got to thinking about pre-rock pop music. I started digging out records I haven't played in years, like the Andrews Sisters' Rum and Coca-Cola, The Weavers' Cool Clear Water and Dinah Shore's Shoo Fly Pie and Apple Pandowdy. It's easy to find people who like Hendrix, Zeppelin, Floyd, etc. but I was wondering if there might be anyone else out there who likes this kind of stuff?
