What are You Listening to?

marukawa · What are You Listening to?

I see this kind of thread on every forum I sign up to, almost. >___<!

So, post what you are listening to, be it music, the tv, or simply the clicking of the buttons on the keyboard. *spazz*

Feel free to talk about what kind of music you like, as well. Oh! and Recommend stuff, too, if you like. :3

==============================

I am currently listening to...the "whirrr" of my desk fan. xD;

my favorite music genres are Jrock, Jpop, Classical, Drum n' Bass, and Hard Techno.

Fye

I'm listening... the tv, more precisely, discovery kids O.o

wolfkin

when I got this computer from my cousin it was a mess. There was about 40 gigs of music on it however. I have a play list I'm using to sort thru it. It's everything not Reggae (pain in the neck to tag/sort), not Classical (even MORE of a pain to sort), nothing I've ranked 1 star, nothing played in the last 6 weeks.

This way I can sorta get used to the music and see what's on there.

iloveyuri

Last thing on my mind - Ronan Keating and Leann Rhimes

perch

Right now I'm listening to the Ghost in the Shell Stand Alone Complex soundtracks. I also listen to a lot of j-urban, dark cabaret, female vocalists that play piano a lot, metal, some indie, classical...

I'll listen to just about anything.

wolfkin

sweet. Mariner's Revenge Song just came on.

yuu

Da Xi Zhou by The Flowers. XD

marukawa

Currently Listening to: Toshihiko Seki - Saudage ~Kyoushuu~

he voices Duo Maxwell in Gundam Wing, and more well-known as Umino Iruka from Naruto!

the anime is blah but the seiyuu can sing! even...Itachi. leikwoah. xO!

lynzajw

Just Dance by Lady GaGa. The stupid thing's been stuck in my head forever due to stupid So You Think You Can Dance. *grumbles*

marukawa

my mom LOVES that friggin show. >___<!

i think the opening dances are way better than the solos and pairs combined. @w@;

still listening to the same song. xD;

pinkmuffinofdoom

My friends and I have three songs that we are currently obsessed with that we found browsing youtube. XD

1. Brave Love - The Alfee
It's from the anime Galaxy Express 999, and the song makes me want to see the anime. XD

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LIZGN6qVQ0w

2. Dango Daikazoku - Ending theme from Clannad
It's amazingly adorable.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PReh1EKmLpg&feature=related

3. Hanamaru Sensation - ?
I like to dance to this song. ^_^
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TJ5YHdYl670

lynzajw

I'm listening to - and watching, of course - Stardust, the movie. It's really good thus far!

Fye

Playing on my mind: Cloudy World - Olivia

wolfkin

Firestarryl

I'm much more boring, currently listening to Disease from Matchbox Twenty (in a rockin' mood)

perch

You Look Like Rain - Morphine...I'm actually alternating between the music we played at the wedding and both aqua albums...yes. It's in interesting combination.

Fye

At the moment, I got caught up by Blue Moon, by Nana Mizuki.

wolfkin

Afroman because I just got back from "Step Brothers" and I'm in a humorous mood.

marukawa

listening to...my stomach growling at everything that has a scent. *grumble* perfume seems to make it do that, too. hmm...

*raids kitchen for munchies* xO!

lynzajw

Pogo by Digitalism~ one of my all-time favourite songs, indeedy. ^^

Fye

On the background, right now is Pucca!

wolfkin

The Office Webisodes (Kevin's Loan) via Hulu while I talk to myself on #awillfulmuse (irchighway)

Fye

What Planet is This - and I don't know from whom it is, but I think that maybe's Yoko Kanno's?

wolfkin

New LL Cool J track i got last week and finally put on a CD to listen to.
Feel My Heart Beat - it's the greatness
http://www.sendspace.com/file/yz63am

Blind Unicorn

Wow.
Uhm.
"Supermassive Black Hole" by Muse. :'D

Fye

OMG! Somebody here likes Muse! Yey!

I'm listening to: Hit Chart wo Kakenukero (Live version) - Suga Shikao (I so much love him! <3)

perch

I'm listening to Bitter:Sweet - The Mating Game

And I love Muse. I saw them live a few years ago and they were insane the lead singer had so much manic energy. They seriously played non-stop, with him running wildly from one spot to another picking up instruments depending on the piece so they could jump right into the next song.

Fye

Now: Triangler - Maaya Sakamoto

I fell in love with Muse while watching them play Starlight at the MTV Europe Music Awards. They really surprissed me, their sound is unique and wonderful, and the singer has such a.... voice, I can't describe it, I love the whole of the group!

lynzajw

Inda - Ken Oak Band

MUSE IS AWESOME! Just saying. And I'm now very jealous of you, Perch. For getting to see them live and all.

Fye

Broken - Sonata Arctica

It finished!

Alumina - Nightmare

lynzajw

Ooh, the Death Note OP? I see, I see!

I'm listening to Just Melody by UVERworld right now~

perch

Fatboy Slim - I see you baby

Fye

Yup, Death Note's OP. It rocks, such as the eds and the other op.

Now I'm listening to Houki Boshi - Younha Bleach's 3rd ed

lynzajw

I LOVE THAT SONG! It's the only Japanese song whose lyrics I know, as opposed to just the melody. Actually, I love pretty much all Bleach music.

Speaking of which, I'm listening to MOVIN' by Takacha. It's... one of the EDs... dunno which one though. It's one of my favourites~

Fye

Yeah! I love Bleach's music too! My fav one is Life, by Yui (that girl has such a pretty voice *-*)

Now I'm listening to: I Want Out (Helloween cover) - Sonata Arctica
(Go, Power Metal XD)

lynzajw

I would never be able to pick just one Bleach song as my favourite, honestly. Though After Dark is AMAZING, as is all AKFG stuff... but I really love almost every single ED and OP for Bleach.

Anyway, now I'm listening to A Dios le Pido by Juanes. So darn catchy... it'll be stuff in my head for ages now.

"Un segundo mas de vida~"

Fye

I do love all the songs, but for some reason, Life is still the one that I like more.

Bad Dog no Biscuit (Live) - The Seatbelts (I love Yoko Kanno *-*)

lynzajw

<.<

>.>

The ultimate otaku song: Hare Hare Yukai.

*nods* Yup, I'm listening to it, and no, I'm not ashamed of myself. (much)

Fye

Hare Hare Yukai? I only learned about a week ago from where that song was (yes, I'm not a fan of Suzumiya....)

Before I was listening to: 19 Sai - Suga Shikao (He is GOD)

Now: Yozora no Mukou - Suga Shikao feat Yui (Double gods!)

lynzajw

I feel all bad now, I have no idea who Suga Shikao is. But Yui is a God, ergo if she did a song with him, he must be pretty good too!

I shall have to listen to some of his stuff soon then.

Anyway, now I'm listening to Bittersweet by Apocalyptica.

MangaPrincessMandy

*eyes go from Lynz to Fye*

Ahhhh... im getting dizzy!

Its like I see them speaking but it just looks like BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH... Code? lol... jk...

Im listening to the sound of a drill at this moment... later I will be listening to my devil music as my friend calls it...lol...

Lonely in Gorgeous from paradise kiss... recieves my recomendation as an opening song... Never heard the rest of them you guys mentioned...ah... to be so sheltered from the common world...so sad! lol!

Fye

Lol! Poor Mandy, I'm sorry to confuse you *pats Mandy on her head*

Lynz, you HAVVE to listen to Suga! He is soooooooooooooooooooo great. Maybe you have heard him before... he sings xxxHolic op, Manatsu no Yoru no Yume (Death Note 1st Movie song, that's a total MUST listen), some insert songs from Honey and Clover and op (or was it ed?) of Boogipop Phantom.

lynzajw

Yes! Lonely in Gorgeous is AWESOME! I love that song so much... though I think that I like Pray, the song she sang that was a Gintama theme, better...

Anyway, now I'm listening to Never Again by the Midway State. I didn't like it all that much, though I thought the music video was amazing... but now I adore the song itself, too. The chorus is just so catchy! Plus I totally love any guy who's not afraid to sing in head tone...

And Fye, speaking of Honey and Clover, do you know the ED for the first season, Waltz? It's soooo good!

MangaPrincessMandy

lynzajw

Eeeeew, 80's country music! ICKY!!!

<.<

>.>

Actually, I'm just not a huge fan of country music in general.

And now I'm listening to Dvorak's 9th Symphony, the 4th movement to be specific. Yay nerds!

MangaPrincessMandy

OOOO.... sounds classical... Manda LOVES!!! GIMME GIMME GIMME!!! lol...

Fye

Lol, I like that kind of music too (I think I like almost every type of music).

Never Again - Midway State

MangaPrincessMandy

I need to study... cant stray from the computer...

ANYWAYS!!! I love ANY ANY ANY music...except im REALLY not into RAP...

*thinking: developmental psychology test friday!
developmental psychology test friday!
developmental psychology test friday! *

listening to a knife sharpener at the moment

lynzajw

Yeah, I love pretty much any music too~

Now I'm listening to one of my all-time favourite OP songs: Duvet by Boa. It's the opening for Serial Experiments Lain, which is just... a really, really odd anime. I mean, I like it, but it's totally strange. In a good way. I think.

And I'm not big on rap either... I mean, I listen to popular stuff if I like it, but it's really not my genre. I prefer stuff I can actually sing along to without sounding like a retard.

MangaPrincessMandy

Now that I look back I have listened to a drill and a knife sharpener....

Sounds kind of fishy to me.... and I still hear the knfe sharpener...
(DADDY IS SHARPENING THE KITCHEN KNIVES AND BEFORE THAT WAS USING A BUFFER ON HIS DRILL TO BUFF THE KNIVES< SOUNDED MURDEROUS THOUGH!!)

*RUNS TO BOOKS*

I gotta study... ill talk later... been nice talking to you guys...sorry if I was a neuscience!! Later days!

Fye

OMG! I love Duvet too! (Lain is a very weird anime, I didn't like it much, but it was interesting)

Stoping the offtopic, I'm listening still to Never Again, thanks to Lynz. But before I was listening to a classic: Knokin' on Heaven's Door - Guns N' Roses.

lynzajw

Lols, it totally does... Mandy, you have a thing for songs with odd names, eh...

Duvet is just... awesome. I love Lain because it's the randomest thing ever and makes me feel all deep for watching it, but I don't get it at all...

"Knock knock knocking on Heaven's door~" Awesome song!

At the start of this post, I was listening to Almost by Sarah Harmer (amazing) but it just switched to Collide by Howie Day (equally amazing).

Fye

White Reflections - Two Mix

Lol at that song that Mandy was listening! I recomend you then, The Boy who Wanted to be a Real Puppet, from Sonata Arctica (weird song, but really cool)

lynzajw

Cowboy Bebop has the most FANTASTIC music ever. Seriously.

I'm listening to So What by P!nk. It makes me laugh because I adore the video, which is hilarious.

Wait, no, just changed... now I'm listening to Make This Go on Forever by Snow Patrol. It's, like, totally mindblowing. It builds up so well... by the end of the song I'll always all hyped up from its awesomeness.

perch

Blues Brothers - Rawhide Cover

Fantastic movie. Great cover.

lynzajw

Lovers in Japan - Reign of Love by Coldplay.

I can't stop listening to Viva la Vida... I'm in love with the whole album right now. I think my parents are just glad that my friend has her copy again, so I can't play it in the car and everything too.

Fye

LOL! Sometimes parents have that kind of wish (if I didn't knew that...)

World in my Eyes (cover) - Sonata Arctica

lynzajw · The sound of my CPU whirring... ah, sweet 5:37 am silence...

The sound of my CPU whirring... ah, sweet 5:37 am silence...

Fye

Smells Like Teen Spirit - Nirvana (another classic)

lynzajw

^ a total classic, indeed

I'm listening to my parents and my grandmother talk about the house across the street - it's being renovated - as the noise the workers are making valiantly tries (and fails) to drown their speech out.

Fye

Funkaholic - Suga Shikao (It's the song that gives the name to his last album, recently out! yey!)

lynzajw

The Killer - Mobile

Awesome song, awesome band~ *sings along*

perch

I'm listening to Strong Bad Emails on homestarrunner.com while I make up a post and work on typesetting.

lynzajw

OMG STRONGBAD RULES~

I didn't know anyone else liked listening to those while working! Trogdor, how you helped me pass grade eight~

*reveries*

perch

Oh yeah I'm a huge fan of the site I don't even have to look at the screen to know most of the sbemails. I'm listening to "looking old" right now. It's great as a background filler for me.

I have a population tire keychain that I refuse to part with.

lynzajw

You win. You just do. I mean, I already say that... my mother's taken to calling me a "Perch fangirl" as I mention you a lot - she usually drowns out manga stuff but your name makes her laugh/pay attention because she gets to rant about someone using the name of a fish afterwards, which leads to me arguing that it's also a verb and now I'm really off-topic on something that's really embarrassing now so I'm going to shut up and cross all this out...

TOPIC CHANGE!

I mainly clean with Zero Punctuation in the background. Like, all the time. I measure my speed based on how many pages I get done per hilarious rant, as I know how long most of them are. And can quote large sections of them. Yes, I need a life, but it still amuses me.

perch

Haha, everyone in my household knows half the staff's names, what their jobs are in the staff and who does which mangas.... <.<

>.>

I like Zero Punctuation, but I only recently gotten into Yahtzee through Mr. Perch so I can't quite listen to his rants and pay attention to what I'm doing or else some lines sneak into the typesets and those are the wrong kinds of typos.

I keep telling Mr. Perch that on April Fools day I'm just going to release a bunch of chapters in LolCats or something...and then run from the pitchforks...

Back on subject. King BubsGonzolla! King Bubs Gonzolla supreme! I also listen to a lot of M-flo when I'm typesetting because I enjoy their music, it's really catchy and keeps me active.

lynzajw

I listened to nothing but Mobile for about an hour before deciding I was sick of the same five songs, then returned to shuffle. So I'm now on Tango Brilliante for Orchestra. It's off of the Ouran High School Host Club OST and is amazing... I love that the Japanese will actually have music composed for a full orchestra and record it, all for a 24-episode anime series. A great series, it's true, but still... it's a good thing, I swear!

perch

I'm the Kinda by Peaches

lynzajw

Let it Rock ft. Lil' Wayne by Kevin Rudolf... but I have Mercy by OneRepublic stuck in my head. It's a strange combo...

Fye

Enough to go by - Vienna Teng

I'm listening to a compilation someone posted at LJ about Fye (yeah, I'm a bit fanatic ^^'). It's pretty good, and that person included this song there.

perch

The Ditty Bops - Walk or Ride

Fye

Try and Love Again - The Eagles

It's from the same compilation.

lynzajw

Riot! by Paramore.

Yes, I know, that's the name of the album, not of any of the songs. But I'm listening to the entire album on shuffle.

Fye

Yey for Riot! I don't remember if I listened to it completly, but I liked a lot the style Paramore has. They've done a really nice version of Sunday, Bloody Sunday.

So now, on my mind, I'm playing: Sunday, Bloody Sunday - Paramore's version. But in reality I'm listening to the sound of computers at college........

BTW, Yey for the shuffle option!

perch

Tigarah - Fake Out

She's fun. Anyone else ever heard of her?

Molenir

Oddly enough, I'm currently listening to Bethoven's 7th Symphony, which will be followed shortly by Brahms 1st. I recently acquired some of the music from Nodame, and have really been enjoying it. Its a nice change of pace occasionally.

perch

Classical is a great relaxation, especially when you can hear all the parts that don't make it into movies...have you ever heard the entirety of Wagner's Der Ring des Nibelungen? That's some amazing stuff.

Though my personal favorite is Chopin. Very relaxing for me.

lynzajw

Riot! again. Born For This, to be specific. I can't stop listening to this CD...

Yes, classical music is AWESOME. Chopin's my favourite too~ though I do like Bach as well, especially because he has some easier stuff. But still, my all-time favourite classical piece is Chopin's Minute Waltz, so he wins as far as I'm concerned.

perch

Toni Childs - I've Got to Go Now

lynzajw

What Not to Wear - though I think that her new haircut is waaay worse than her old one, which is never a good thing...

perch

Alice Smith - Love Endeavor

lynzajw

Dog Whisperer - my mother's current guilty pleasure. She watches it at least once a day, then attempts to replicate the techniques shown on our dog. My father then promptly tries to un-train our dog, then they get into an argument over it.

It's quite amusing, actually.

perch

Haha okay that's awesome Lynz.

Monster Mash

It's October 1st so all my Halloween music and appropriate music is going into a mix.

Fye

The Backyardigans...............................

perch

Peter Gabriel - Red Rain

lynzajw

The sound of my compy's aching old bones. Okay, it's not thaaaaaaat old yet, but it's still whiny since I moved about ten GB off my internal HD onto my external HD, moved my eleven GB of smutty goodness onto my internal HD, and deleted about thirty GB of old anime and stuff. So now it's being grumpy and whiny and wanting to go to sleep, and is making sure I know it, too.

perch

Alice Smith - Fake is the New Real

Mine is mad too, I'm downloading raws and it's like, "what you need more?" Whiny computers...

lynzajw

Don't you hate it when they develop minds of their own? Okay, not literally, but whatever, you know what I mean...

Now I'm listening to Almost Lover by A Fine Frenzy and cursing the friend who played it to me, because I can't get the stupid thing out of my head. On the plus side, though, she's going to see Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist with me tomorrow, so I can't be too mad at her

perch

I like A Fine Frenzy she's nice on some afternoons. Still listening to Alice Smith - Gary this time.

lynzajw

She's good for when I'm feeling sad but not totally emo yet. Once I cross that point, it's Iris on repeat, over and over again...

Anyway, now I'm listening to the complete opposite in terms of... well, a lot. Pogo by Digitalism - I freaking love this song. Seriously, I can't go more than a couple of days without listening to it. It's so... glee~ I can't even think of a suitable word. It's just amazing.

perch

Jane's Addiction - Jane Says

I've loved this song since I was a little girl...which is weird when you consider the lyrics...

Missa

Rick James - Mary Jane ^.^

perch

Blink182 - Dammit

flakizz

Missa

Listening to the TV. The movie Hostage is playing. <3

foxghost

Don't 'cha go 'way mad - Harry James and his orchestra

over and over and over again.

Random factoid: I'm a 1940's style vocal group coach. See, that is random isn't it. Great song though. Has a modern vibe to it.

Nephilim

Gravity co. - Empty World

Flyleaf - There for You
