Favorite Music

[Janine Dee]

This is entirely unrelated to AChat, but I am sitting here listening to Within Temptation and thinking about how I want to have Sharon Del Adel's baby… yes we're both women, and no the technology is not currently available, but as soon as it is. 

So what is everyone else listening to?

Eva Cassidy!

Unfortunately she's not with us anymore, but her voice is still my biggest inspiration.

[Janine Dee]

Oh honey, while they may not be with us, they never leave. I'm still in mourning over the loss of Ronnie James Dio, but I also know the man's body of work has made him immortal.

IMO this is totally related to Achat.  Nobody else notices how repetitive the music is?  How about some more original tracks.  And also can we put our own mp3s in the music folder, so we have something better to listen to while we are playing Achat??

[Janine Dee]

I haven't heard of that, but I've played both Windows Media Player and Project Playlist while running AChat and had no trouble hearing the music, and yes, the music is the one AChat feature I would and could truly complain about it they hadn't put in the mute.

[sinnnn]

K, I listen to everything and I mean everything.  But right now a really cool aussie(kisses) has introduced me to this band an I think they totally rock.  They are called Tool, and also The Tea Party. 

I always have my music on mute when it comes to Achat.  Its so annoying, like I am stuck in a elevator at a porn studio banging my head against the wall screaming,”MAKE IT STOP!! OH GOD MAKE IT STOP!!”  So please A-Team, MAKE IT STOP.

Oh, I totally agree with the “MUTE” button….if it didn't exist, I'd NEVER have gotten a premium membership.

As for what I listen to, I love Savage Garden, Fleetwood Mac, Barenaked Ladies, Matchbox 20, Nickleback, Britney Spears…..just to name a few….sorry, child of the 1980's

I like the suggestion of being able to “stream” our own music, but as mentioned, just mute and fire up Media Player (or whatever you use on comp) or turn on the radio.

I loved the 80's man.  They really loved, felt the music back then.  U2, yes U2. 

[Lover]

Welcome to 2010 people of the 80s. Aaaaaaannnnnddddddd yes, I am stuck in the 80s too. I hear lots of music, from oldies up to the newest ones. But the 80s are and forever will be my favourite music.
U2? great! Frankie Goes To Hollywood, Depeche Mode (yes, they are from the 80s kids, lol) and….

[mikki]

I'll listen to most anything, from Ozyy to The Beach Boys, and everyone between.. But for me as well as a few above, The 80's still rule. And I always have mt Windows Media Player going, and AChat on mute. My primary playmate here, and I have our own playlist, which we can both have running in the background at the same time It is just another way for us to connect with one another, enhancing the experiences we have here.

Now it is going to sound repetitive,…yeah the music of the 80's. Depends on my mood though since I love most forms of music across the spectrum. That includes classical at times. Generally use Pandora to generate the playlist so I am free to focus on other matters while maintaining some diversity. Love the guitar (and actually kick back and play for a while if the board is quiet and no one of interest is available while I wait awhile) , so if you're going to peg me down,…Clapton,  Santana,..BB King…and others with the talent for the strings.

[sinnnn]

Hey Bear since you love the strings, check out John Butler.

I have to admit a good percentage of what's worthwhile now a days started in the 80's and 90's.

But I have to say this out loud… Ozzy needs to retire… he's needed to retire for a long while now. His best days are behind him. He needs to take a page from the Scorpions who are putting out one last album, doing one last tour, and retiring.

I think it was around 2000 that companies started to manufacture bands… and that's when things started to go to Hell, because even those with genuine talent were encouraged into mass marketed boxes unless they were already proven successful.

Now if it isn't from the distant past  it's from Europe… like Within Temptation.

I also like Incubus/Succubus… I'm hoping Rob Zombie manages to get a tour going with them. At last I heard their pagan themes have them banned here in the US.

Oh but on a distinctly AChat related theme I would recommend anyone with a taste for metal check out Halestorm (spelled like that) more specifically their songs “I get off” and “Dirty Mind”.

[Carli]

Aah, Within Temptation, from my own home country

If you like them, you might also like other European bands like K's Choice (90's, Belgium), The Gathering (90's, Netherlands) or Nightwish (00's, Finland).

[sinnnn]

I know this has nothing to do with the topic but I'm bored an I was having a 80's movie marathon(hanging my head down in shame).  Anyhooo I love The Breakfast Club, SomeKind of Wonderful and Sixteen Candles oh an the Legend of Billie Jean.  Yeah I said.
