content: for Western singer, i will not hesitate to buy the new album if i come across...1) Dido2) Michael Learns to Rock3) Enya4) Enigmaor maybe...1) boyzone2) blue3) 911things like that.ok dont laugh, i'm kinda of "on the soft side guy" but i do occasionally listen to hiphop and pop, but cant name the specific singers maybe The Black Eyed Peas, PIMP, coolio etc. the most regretted bought album... eminem! but his latest duet "i need a doctor" is kinda cool, maybe he improved. heavy metal just dont tuned up very well with the filter in my cerebral cortexbut lately i seldomly listen to music anymore.

content: hehe - it is quite funny that Michael Learns to Rock is so famous in Asia. They are Danish and in Denmark they are not that famous. :-) You meet them at the local bars in Copenhagen and no-one bats an eyelid. (unless an Asian tourist bus passes by)My music ranges from Rammstein & Kraftwerk to Led Zeppelin and old blues-(jazz) like Django Reinhart. Rammstein is only really good if you understand german ...

content: Quote from: olsenn on December 09, 2011, 01:49:11 pmAwooo! Heh, there's a bit of overlap going on here; the CDs I have in the car at the moment are:A Quiet Normal Life: The Best of Warren Zevon(I need to find some of his post-Asylum stuff sometime)Tom Waits'sSwordfishtrombones, although since that's been in there for almost a month now I might change which album I have in the Waits slot tomorrowRod Stewart'sAtlantic Crossing, which I decided to spin again after hearing of Dobie Gray's death earlier this week (since it includes Stewart's version ofDrift Away)Matchbox Twenty'sYourself or Someone Like You... although to be honest I haven't had time to sit down and listen to anything properly in a few weeks so I've got a bit of a backlog going on. Sitting on the coffee table at home for this weekend are the SuperHeavy album, Caro Emerald'sDeleted Scenes from the Cutting Room Floor, and a recording of theSymphonie Fantastique. I might also dig out System Of A Down's eponymous debut just in case the project I'll be working on turns out to be a failure again!

content: I like your topic, but this is not a Bill Board forum or the American Top 40 Musics. I like to listen to various songs from the early 1980's like Its Immaterial singing "Driving Away from Home," Nazareth, "Love Hurts" from the 1975, or Natalie Imbruglia, Australian musician, singing "Wrong Impression:"There is Seals, "Love Divine." The Guns and Roses in "November Rain" has an interesting and non flowing ending.Here is a classic, Petula Clark, "Kiss Me Goodbye," circa 1968:What is your most unusual multimeter? Mines is a $68.00 pocket solar battery powered multimeter and the Smart Probe are all most unusual, out of the ordinary multimeter. My Fluke 12 finally broke, non responsive keyboard after a decade of use.
