I think you've just put your finger on it - a good pop song makes me do something, tap my foot, hum, nod my head, dance like a loon...
And the perfect pop song only exists for those fleeting minutes when it perfectly ma… -
ahh! Siamese Dream... I'd forgotten all about that one. Seeing your post made me dash off to look for it. Listening to it now, feeling all nostalgic....

If I have to name one, I'll go with the late John Peel -the Undertones and Teenage Kicks

My first musical memories are of Oscar Peterson, Count Basie, Ella Fitzgerald and Eartha Kitt, I've since been told that it was actually the Beatles who were on constant rotation, yet I have no memory of them.
Then the old turntable broke and … -

I've mentioned this in a couple of threads before and I know I'm begining to sound like some sort of a salesperson, but, I'll mention it again because it has been so much better than anything else I've tried - Media Monkey. (Oh, and it's free)

Don't know who won, but we did make the national news!
This is what it looked like (taken from a local news site) -
One of my resolutions is to get outside more. Started today by attending a mass snowball fight in the local park. Guess there are some good uses for those personal network sites after all. A foot of snow, several hundred people, one whistle and a lo…

Funny, it's opposite for me. Winter is funk, house and lively breaks to get me moving while summer goes more mid tempo and dubby.

@ Daniel, Esq.
Just had a look at RA, looks very interesting, thanks.
It probably seems strange, but I've never got round to reading reviews etc. when hunting for music. I tend to follow artists - I'll hear a track so I'll look into the … -
I do use Juno, and djdownload, but rarely. In these cash strapped times, I try to limit my spending. I am lucky in that I know a few djs who can point me towards freebies and allow me to spend my money efficiently by letting me listen to music they …

This year I've been digging into what thay call nu funk here (I've also heard it called funky breaks, but that means something different to me... very confusing). Whatever you call it, It's broken beats done with a heavy dose of funk. There are some…

Ok, it's silly-o-clock in the morning, and I've probably had too much Christmas cheer, but - Merry Christmas!
Traditionally, I celebrate on Cristmas Eve, so I write post Christmas meal, presents and frivolity. Guests have left, I have a mounta… -
Funny how this time of the year makes you think back, I have this idealistic vision of my home when I was a kid, all snow and forest, skiing and ice skating. I've been tempted to revisit the place but never have. Think I'll stick to the memories.Media Monkey is freeware. If you want, you can pay $20 (or so) for a gold version which has added bells and whistles. I have, but I wanted the 'we'll-fade-the-sound-and-turn-your-computer-off-while-you-go-to-sleep' feature.
Another featu…no!
Forget LOL, my much more 'with-it' daughter informs me the correct response should have been : ROFLMAO!
(rolls on floor laughing arse off)LOL!!@ jonahpwll
Your situation sound ideal to me. I've had years of a 2hr each way commute to work and only last year started working from home as much as possible. Whilst its good not to have to travel, it can be too distracting and dull to be at…Excellent, I'm off to find the seasonal spirit...Yay! we've got snow too! And, since it's minus something-or-other, it's hanging around. To top it all, I cooked an early Christmas meal last night as the rest of the family is going abroad for the holiday proper. I feel like I'm getting two Christma…I'd second Media Monkey. It's very good with large libraries and has a feature for cataloguing physical media as well as mp3s on a drive.Love Spotify. Since all samples have stopped playing for me at the other place I've been using it to check out new albums before I buy. The selection is increasing all the time but I have yet to take the plunge and pay for the premium account. Call …When I asked the question I was thinking more of the kits you can buy in ordinary shops here to brew your own barrel of beer or a few bottles of wine, nothing large scale. I take it that is illegal in the US?
Your replies have made me think th…With all those restrictions do you guys ever brew your own? Or do you stock up in advance?
I remember when I was a kid, my folks distilling ordinary vodka to make it stronger, using a weird glass contraption connected to the kitchen tap and he…@ amclark2
Excellent! Well, perhaps not for you, but they say that any extreme weather round your way arrives here two to three weeks later - snow for chrimus after all.I'm in a commuter town just outside London. The licencing laws were changed here to stop rowdy behaviour at the old 11pm 'chucking-out' time, the theory being that people would stagger their leaving times and stop fighting in taxi ques. Well, they s…Well, I've actually switched my heating off for the last couple of days since the thermometer outside my window said 21 C. I want snow for Christmas!
As for licensing laws, I'm not even sure what they are anymore. Pubs and bars close at …5. Teaching the greedy so-snd-so a lesson by wrapping a single chocolate mouse in a 3 x 3 x 3 ft box (with filling to add weight), with a monster bow on top, while the real present hides in a tiny box right at the back of the tree.
in Its chrimus time Comment by martyna December 20092. Having achieved the appropriate level of slap ass drunk and completed the task at No.1, you now realise that your elderly auntie's present remains hidden under the spare bed. The very same bed in fact, on which the said auntie is currently asleep…
