Also, youngergirl44, thanks so much for posting with links!

So, ehm, I've seen quite a few of these randomised mp3 threads.
I took part this time.
Can somebody explain what the idea is of these threads? What's the pay off?
People don't seem to react to each others random music titles a lot. So it's not to start a conversation.
Also it's randomised, not the music people like most. So it's not a very good way to find new good music...

96 Tears - ? and the Mysterians
Valse Oubliée no. 4 - Franz Liszt (performed by Leslie Howard)
Reg - Mike & Rich
We Are After All Here - Broadcast and the Focus Group
String Quartet no. 5, 5th movement - Philip Glass (performed by the Kronos Quartet)
Closing Theme - Camper Van Beethoven
The Daily Planet - Love
J'ai Mal au Dents - Faust
Dancing on the Ceiling - Frank Sinatra
I Loves You Porgy - Nina Simone

My conversations about these threads are almost always with myself and usually involve putting band names into the Pirate Bay search engine.

Here's a bonus track for your listening pleasure:

The Knights - Tipping Strings

1. Weep (History of Trojan Records 1968-1971, Vol. 1) - Bob Andy
2. The Only One (That Much Further West) - Lucero
3. Up With People (Nixon) - Lambchop
4. If You Only Had A Brain (Move Back Home) - The Queers
5. Jet Boy (New York Dolls) - New York Dolls
6. Satisfied (Laser Beam Next Door) - The Silos
7. Ghost of Karelia (Crack The Skye) - Mastodon
8. De Camino A La Vereda (Buena Vista Social Club) - Buena Vista Social Club
9. Omegaville (Post Minstrel Syndrome) - The Negro Problem*
10. Requiem in D Minor, K. 626, Part 4. Sequentia: Tuba Mirum (Mozart Requiem, Laudate Dominum) - W. A. Mozart
BONUS TRACK: 11. Spaceship Broken, Parts Needed (City of Echoes) - Pelican**
SUPER SPECIAL SECRET BONUS TRACK: 12. She Is Beautiful (I Get Wet) - Andrew W.K.***

I totally cheated because otherwise half of this list would have been from Lambchop's "Nixon" because iTunes hates me.

*This is one of the only songs I have ever liked that contains a flute solo.
**Included because it was the next song on shuffle and the song title amuses me. And it's happy, upbeat instrumental prog that still rocks without being all artsy-fartsy.
***Included because, well, just because.

On preview:

I like these threads because I always end up seeing something I'd never heard of and finding new music. I also like airing my exquisite taste for all of MetaChat to see. And that it is random makes it fun, because if you're honest, sometimes total crap comes up and then everyone can tee-hee that you have a Loverboy song on your iPod.

I always find new music via these things. If it was our favourite music then the whole thing would get repetitious real fast and you can always check out people's last FM listings in the wiki for that. And like BOP said it's sometimes good for a laugh.

Loverboy is fucking awesome.

BOP: Everyone's list should be all Lambchop, all the time!

my itunes is very single-genre-biased these days, that said here goes

Dido - My Life
Hip Hop - Royce Da 5'9
Outsider (Ramones cover) - Green Day
Gangsta Gumbo - Crooked I
Strawberry Bounce - Janet Jackson
Light Up freestyle - Crooked I
Deja Vu - Nas
We Can Make It Better - Kanye ft. Q-Tip & Common
Personal Jesus - Depeche Mode
California Love - Tupac

jouke, for me, these are sort of mindless fun. It is fun to delve into the collections of others, as well as my own library. I hate a lot of the shuffles that my device comes up with, but that is just part of the deal.

Plus, I figure if someone as totally cool as bearwife likes something, then it is worth a listen.

The Cramps - Faster Pussycat
Bad Company - Ready For Love
Dean Martin - Memories Are Made Of This
The Beatles - Yesterday
The Who - Fiddle About

Kittie - Paperdoll
Dick Jacobs and his Orchestra - Visitors from Space from IT CAME FROM OUTER SPACE
Tangerine Dream - Desert Dream
Chicago - Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is [free form intro]
The Cowsills - The Rain, The Park & Other Things*

* ... and then I knew (I knew, I knew, I knew) she could me happy. Happy. Happy.

Bonus track: Miles Davis - Nine (Part 1) ("life")

Michael Jackson - Wanna Be Startin Somethin
Ronettes - Be My Baby
Black Keys - Have Love Will Travel
Cardigans - Lovefool
Dave Dee Dozy Beaky Mich & Tich - Hold Tight
Thrush Hermit - Oh My Soul
Blondie - Heart of Glass
Clash - Rock the Casbah
Sergio Mendes - Day Tripper (Beatles Cover)
Jane's Addiction - Jane Says

I like these threads. Was just thinking about it actually. Glad to see the bunnies have good and eclectic taste in music.

Hey BOP, I'm curious, which recording of Mozart's Requiem did you listen to, and is it the one you prefer? I've listened to quite a few but none measure up to that of Peter Schreier and the Leipzig Radio Orchestra with the Dresden State Chorus, from 1983. Its turgid Eastern Bloc gravitas suits the subject matter well, and I'm pretty sure it's the recording on the Amadeus soundtrack. I bet that's the real reason I like it so much.

Now for another listen:

1. Silmä Sata Ikävää - Kuupuu (Lumen Tädhen, 2009)
2. Remember When (Side A) - The Black Keys (Attack & Release, 2008)
3. Baba O'Riley - The Who (Who's Next, 1971)
4. Do You Like It [Explicit] - Domino (World of Dominology, 1997)
5. Nun komm, der Heiden Heiland, BuxWV 211 - Dieterich Buxtehude (Bine Katrine Bryndorf, or., 2003)
6. Biggest Fool In Town - Gorgeous George (1965)
7. Azoo De Ma Gnin Kpevi - Orchestre Poly-Rythmo de Cotonou (197?)
8. Born Under Punches (The Heat Goes On) - Talking Heads (Remain in Light, 1980)
9. Back on the Chain Gang - The Pretenders (1982)
10. Hit the Road, Jack - Ray Charles (1960)

The Cliks - Complicated
DJ Krush - Big City Lover
Anya Marie - Sociopath
Bo Diddley - Hit Or Miss
Charles Brown - Bringin' in A Brand New Year
Ann Peebles - Old Man Trouble
Sonic Youth - Tunic
Joe Strummer & The Mescaleros - Police & Thieves (live)
Karen O & The Million Dollar Bashers - Highway 61 Revisited
The Groovie Ghoulies - I Don't Like Mondays

Nighttime round two:

1. The Raspberries "Tonight" (how appropriate)
2. The Vapors "Trains"
3. Sonic Youth "Junkie's Promise"
4. Peter Gabriel (w/ Kate Bush) "Don't Give Up"
5. U2 "Numb"
6. Wolf Parade "Cave-O-Sapien"
7. Goldfrapp "Forever"
8. Janelle Monae "Neon Valley Street"
9. Sonic Youth "JC"
10. Nancy Sinatra "Baby Please Don't Go"

The Groovie Ghoulies - I Don't Like Mondays

OMG. Any way I can hear this?

When I was 15 I stumbled on the baroque opera Pygmalion by the composer Rameau.
And I loved it instantly. Thankfully the recording is also a historic one: by La Petite Bande.
The ouverture can be found on youtube.
To listen to the vocal parts select "Fatal amour" on amazon.

It didn't exactly help me get laid. Au contraire.
So be aware of that risk.

Late night edition.

Moguai - Beat Box
Myra Taylor With Jimmy Keith's Orchestra - The Sipder And The Fly
Roger Whittaker - Durham Town (The Leavin')
Aislin - Guilty Conscience
The John Butler Trio - Peaches & Cream

John Miles - Music
The Blow Monkeys - It Doesn't Have to Be this Way
War - Me And Baby Brother

The Groovie Ghoulies - I Don't Like Mondays

OMG. Any way I can hear this?

OMG seconded! I thought we had everything they ever recorded and I have never heard of this.

The Groovie Ghoulies - I Don't Like Mondays

Great Lists Everybody !!

my morning stuff is all done so I may as well post a second list too.............

A Place To Bury Strangers - Missing You
The Pharcyde - Devil Music
Mickey Monnlight - Interplanetary Music
Old 97s - Nineteen
The Kinks - Prince of Punks
Candy Dulfur - There Goes The Neighbourhood
Carl Perkins - Guitar Boogie
Dwight Yoakum - Crazy Little Thing Called Love
Corrine Bailey Rae - Call Me When You Get This
The Smiths - Back To The Old House

as for the new person who has questions about these lists, all I can say is that I personally love doing them . I have been turned on to so many new artists because of these posts . the key to them is the randomness of them . i have all kinds of awful songs in my music folder, but theyre there because they put a smile on my face or remind me of a place or time and maybe that will make someone else have a chuckle when they see it too. if we took the randomness out of these posts, the lists would become sad & generic . there are just too many cool avenues of music to go down. the more eclectic these lists are, the better

The Groovie Ghoulies - I Don't Like Mondays

The rare gem like this is what makes these lists fun. I had never heard of this band but now they are at the top of my playlist.
