Me? I was at The Depot last night listening to Jimi Hocking, and he dusted off a cover of The Price I Pay by Billy Bragg. It's a brilliant tune, but such a sad, heart-wrenching song, and I can't stop singing it, which is buggering up my Friday mood-wise.
So, what song is stuck in your head?

I wouldn't rather be a fish BTW

It's no suprise,

I got that ****ty Alien Ant Farm song in my head. It takes me days to get it out, and when I do, I hear the damn thing on the radio or on T.V again and WHAM.......it's stuck in my head again.
Assholes.
CFH.
"Your winter" by sister hazel, for no real reason other than the fact that it was on in the car when I was driving home. And I'm the sort of person who sings all the way home, whatever song it is :) (that's a secret don't tell anyone)
The scary thing was that earlier in the day, there was an infomercial for some Christian songs, and because one of the songs is one that my mother sings sometimes, I had it in my head for two hours.
"Freedom" by Paul McCartney
"My Sweet Lord" by George Harrison
I found myself humming both tunes today.........and I don't mind at all. :cool:
Ahh - I have heard that Nickelback song so many times, every time I hear even a snatch of it it's stuck in my head.
Just keep walking............
I'm so Crazy by Par - T - One and In the End by Linkin Park, I love this song!
"D to the I to the A to the MMMMMMMMMMMM
O to the N to the D to the pearls of love"
Prince - Diamonds and Pearls. It's been in there for 2 days now.

'Ohh onto Us A Child is Bo-or-or-orn" LOL ..been rehearsing the Messiah with the Sydney Symphony for the last coupla weeks.
Through no choice of my own I cant get rid of;
Nah nah nah, nah nah nah nah nah, nah nah nah, nah nah nah nah I just cant get you out of my head.....................

Much in the same sad, heart-wrenching way, I've now got Hammerfall's "Glory To The Brave" stuck in my head.
So this is goodbye, I take leave of you and
Spread your wings and you will fly away now, fly away now
Nothing on earth stays forever
But none of your deeds were in vain
Deep in our hearts you will live again
You're gone to the home of the brave

read on one of their fan sites, that Supergrass are currently in a secret location recording new material for the new album due for release early next year.
also read that on the 'Mike Bassett: England Manager' soundtrack, theres a new track called 'Oracle'... (cant seem to find on morpheus yet! $#@)..

Why does everyone hate Creed so much?
The reason I have it in my head is coz its the best song released since Creeds 'With Arms Wide Open'
I have **** songs in my head a lot. But Im happy with this one

A more pertinent question would be, how the hell do they sell records.
Stale music feeding off the remnants of the grunge era, that is effectively a Christian rock version of Pearl Jam, but that is non-innovative, with undoubtedly the soppiest, laughably cliched lyrics in the history of rock (and that is using the term very loosley!)!!!
What's more the overall package is music's (again used loosely) version of scraping your fingernails down a chalkboard!
I would rather hear such masterpieces as Mambo Number 5, Who Let the Dogs Out and, I can't believe I am saying this, Matchbox20!!!
I am hoping they come out and say that they are a joke band, cause there is no way known that they can be fair dinkum...can they???
Do yourself a favour and go and buy Radiohead's The Bends.

The reason they sell records is coz they're one of the best bands in the world.
And people bag them for supposedly copying Pearl Jam. If they are (which im not sure of) good luck to them. If you're gonna copy someone it may as well be the greatest band of all time.
And of course I forgot Radiohead are 'real' music coz everybody says they're not mainstream. Creed **** all over Radiohead
agree.... creed suck... ~

Radiohead are definitely mainstream. They have released two albums and a live EP in the last 2 years. The only way they are not mainstream is that the music they write is deep, complicated and not afraid to explore.
In fact the album I told you to buy, The Bends, is pretty much like what bands like Coldplay and Travis try to write today, only with better lyrics and a bit of "rocking-out" (so to speak) every now and then!
Pearl Jam are a solid band and I like them a lot. I have read that they have been a bit frustrated over the past couple of albums in finding the sound that they want, probably because of f*ckstick bands like Creed that rip their sound off. And in an article I read Eddie Vedder said how much he loved Kid A and that he hoped he could do something like it someday!
Pearl Jam aren't the best band in the world ever, nor are Radiohead, but they are in the upper bracket. Please don't ever try to diminish the accomplishments of either band by comparing them to that vomit of a band, Creed.

Who cares if Creed copied Pearl Jam's sound or not. Pearl Jam themselves aren't exactly an original, one of a kind band, every band going around is a derivative of a number of their influences. It boils down to personal preference, if you like them, listen to them. If you don't, then don't listen to them.

Hey man, don't bring me down and hassle me, man ;) ;) :D
I'm like The Egg, though. It's not like Creed aren't doing anything differently to a million other bands and I know the perception is that they are a Christian band, but they don't preach to anyone, they try to give a positive message through their music rather than negative. The level of vitriol toward them suprises me, that's all.
Personally, I don't mind them, but then my tastes run more mainstream than most others here. :)

The fact of the matter is, I have no issues with mainstream. I have issues with lameness!
There are some extremely good Top 40 acts I love and I see enough of them on V and early morning Rage (coming down from a heavy night).
But the likes of Matchbox20, Third Eye Blind & Creed produce the most stale of cliched music. Sure they might have hooks that can suck in enough musically ignorant people, but it doesn't change the fact that their music is complete swill!
At the very least, music (or at least good music), in my opinion, will always have an air of freshness about it. Creed are the exact opposite of fresh.

Thats like Starchild saying anyone who likes Live doesn't have a clue about music ... its a crock of ****
My Own Prisons a pretty good album.

Yeah, but do you reckon it should be above or below Pet Sounds, Dark Side of the Moon, The White Album, Sgnt Peppers, Are You Experienced, OK Computer, Exile on Main Street, Led Zeppelin II & IV and The Joshua Tree?
I am interested in your response.

They might be legendary albums and some of the most succesful albums of all time, but I'd rather listen to Human Clay.
The albums I'd rank ahead of it are stuff like Ten, WTS Morning Glory, Blood Sugar Sex Magik and Black
And I couldn't give a **** if you think liking Creed makes me ignorant. I'd hate to listen to some of the albums you've listed there, particularly crap like OK Computer and The Joshua Tree
My answer would definetely be above

I can understand why someone doesn't like Radiohead and especially OKC/Kid A/Amnesiac, but you can't seriously tell me that The Joshua Tree isn't one of the all time greatest albums!!!
For what it's worth, VH1 had it as number 1 in its most recent 100 Greatest Albums list. Nuff said!

I'm with Flying Egg on this one despite the fact that I've never heard a Creed song (or at least I don't think I have) and I'm not that much of a Radiohead fan (so, how much more neutral can you get in this argument).
Who really cares what other people think are great albums. If Flying Egg prefers to listen to Creed instead of Radiohead, then that's his choice. If he believes that the Creed album is one of the greatest records of all time, then that is his opinion. The fact that anyone else thinks that Pet Sounds, Dark Side Of the Moon, Joshua Tree etc. are great albums does not matter.
Figjam has listed a number of albums as being classics, but apart from Pet Sounds, none of them would be in my own list of the greatest 50 records of all time. It's simply due to the fact that I get much more enjoyment listening to other records than these "classics".
Anyway Flying Egg, don't worry about what other people think. Just listen to the music that makes you happy (even though I reckon that if I did happen to listen to a Creed song, I'd probably hate it ;) ).
Gee, way to gang up on me Shinners!
This all stems from the open question by The Eggman "Why does everyone hate Creed so much?". I gave an answer.
Whilst I respect opinions and realise that they are just that, I don't think anyone should have to cop a claim that Human Clay is in the Top 10 albums ever and I argued accordingly.
Some opinions are simply wrong. That's my opinion!

Have had a couple of songs stuck in my head over the last two days after hearing them on the all neW whizbang fandangle TRIPLE M while at work. Took me back to my high school days when all my bogan mates where listening to Motley Crue, Skid Row, Poison, GNFNR, Bon Jovi and Cinderella while I was forever championing the cause of OZ rock and letting them know constantly that they were barking up the wrong tree. Anyway perm your hair, crank up that eyeliner and wack on those spandex pants, the two songs stuck in my head are:
POISON - EVERY ROSE HAS ITS THORN
SKID ROW - I REMEMBER YOU

Do you only like the one genre of music?? All the bands you seem to like are just post-grunge bands. Lemme guess....you think the new Nickelback song is fantastic too??
and so what if they yell....they get their point across in a different manner. Kud from Mudvayne sings more than he 'yells' anyway.
They might be pathetic in your eyes - but as i said before in a different post - everyone has different musical tastes. Music is just opinion. For everyone who loves a band, there is someone else who hates the same band.

id much rahter listen to 3 guys with drums and screaming than a manufactured pop "group" who sing about nothing except wanting to make love to their girlfriends, breaking up from their girlfriends, and having lots of love to give. They dont even write their own songs? Nor do they play any instruments at all. So how is THAT Music??? Every song ive heard from these pop groups have EXACTLY the same beat in EVERY song. EVERY song. That is not music.
And at least metal bands sing about real issues and topics instead of just love and sex.

It's a bit harsh Macca. To the uninitiated, all punk sounds the same, all metal sounds the same, all jazz sounds the same etc. etc.
Personally, I prefer bands that so sing about falling in love, being in love, and breaking up.....I read and talk enough about issues in my day to day life without having to hear it all over again through music.
As for the manufactured bands, I really don't mind watching them on TV....it's hilarious....you know what dance steps they'll do, their facial expressions, how bad the lyrics are, and everything else....and also, you know the songs are written to be CATCHY......so it's kind of fun to watch them on Saturday/Sunday morning and just take the p!ss out of it all.

That's great it starts with an earthquake
Birds and snakes and aeroplanes
Lenny Bruce is not afraid
Eye of the hurricane, listen to yourself churn
World serves its own needs, don't misserve your own needs
Beat it up a knock beat, grunt no, strength no
Ladder starts to clatter with fear, fight, down hype
Wire in the fire represents the seven games
with a government for hire at a combat site
Left her, wasn't coming in a hurry
with the furies breathing down your neck
Team by team reported battled trunk tethered crop
Look at that low plane, fine then
Oh oh overflow, population common group but it'll do
Save yourself, serve yourself
World serves its own needs listen to your heartbeat, dummy
With the rapture of the rabid and the right, right
You patriotic patriotic slam bright white light
Feeling pretty psyched
Want the rest? Look it up yourself :)
