what are you listening to THIS VERY SECOND?

Post Reply New Topic

Alumina-Nightmare

The Allegro from Shostakovich's tenth symphony.

That's your favourite symphony!

I'm listening to a fan vacillate.

I was annoyed; I don't like listening to the tenth unless I'm suitably fired up, but the four minute second movement came up as part of a complilation album. Now I'm listening to the Tahiti Trot.

Summer synaesthesia at its finest

If I give my heart to you
I must be sure
From the very start
That you would love me more than her
Cause I couldn't stand the pain
And I would be sad
If our new love was in vain

I have a haircut next week.

My favorite part of this two part song starts at 4:04. Please listen to this...

She said: "It looks, don't you think it looks a lot like rain?"
He said: "Isn't it? Isn't it just? Isn't it just like a woman?"
She said: "It's hard. It's just hard. It's just kind of hard to say."
He said: "Isn't it? Isn't it just? Isn't it just like a woman?"
She said: "It goes. That's the way it goes. It goes that way."
He said: Isn't it? Isn't it just like a woman?"
She said: "It takes, it takes one, it takes one to, it takes one to know one."
He said: "Isn't it just like a woman?"
She said, she said it, she said it to know, she said it to know one.
Isn't it? Isn't it just? Isn't it just like a woman?
Your eyes - it's a day's work to look into them.
Your eyes - it's a day's work just looking into them.

Breathe, just breathe.

Well that was hypnotic! I think I'm in a trance now! I agree that the 4:04 mark is where it all begins. I like the background sounds which remind me of rain. Oh wait, that was the lyric. Huh. Deep.

Thanks for listening. I never connected the percussion in the background to rain. I agree with you. Thanks for giving me a new perspective on the song!

Total blast from my past. It transports me. I love how music can do that.

It's like that camp game where children sit in a circle and make rain noises building up to a storm by rubbing their hands and snapping their fingers ...

Cool.

Stand up bass and smokin' guitar. What's not to like? It's hard to believe I saw them live so many years ago now.
