Acda en de Munnik (Dutch)

Interesting - I never really warmed to Acda en de Munnik that much (I lived in NL from 1997-2005)
At the end of the day, I guess you have to sing in English to be internationally recognised

The voice blend is what got me hooked. It's almost perfect. And I'll stop there before I give a full musical analysis... ;D

The part about English is true... It's such a shame though. There are so many other languages that are much nicer to listen to. (Whether one understands them entirely or not)

Although I do like a number of different styles of music, there are several that I keep returning to. Kasey Chambers, I reckon you can't go past someone like her, she's an awesome singer and great to listen to live!

In general country is the music I listen to, I've found it's rather relaxing when driving and just kicking back at home. Another benefit of my favourite music is that no one wants to 'borrow' my cds and never return them!!

Other than that, depending on the mood, older music that everyone knows and can sing along to is good, plus some triple j stuff is also good... good Australian radio station, for those who have no idea who it is...

[MajiKat]

ahh Triple J

used to spend my Australia Day drinking beer and listening to the Hottest 100.

don't know what happened to those days *sigh*

[Kaylan-R]

lol You drank bear?? Heavens!!

Maybe that's where you get you're idea's from lol

[zrye]

Hey beer is good!!! Does that mean that if I say I still tend to listen to the hottest 100 and drink beer means I'm still young... I like that idea!!! Although if you ask the teenagers I teach, I'm ancient with no taste in music!!!

From the now young beer drinker *sigh* glowing in the fact people may still think I'm young!

[Emma-Jayde]

Beer is good.
Beer and music is one of the best combinations possible ;D

[Kaylan-R]

lol beer makes you think any music is good!

Beer pretty much makes you think any thing is good.

[Emma-Jayde]

Thing meaning people too...

[Arctic Firefox]

Yes, well, those lacking self-control inevitably get what's coming to them, don't they?

[Cookie Lover]

Music? I go for the jazz/bluesey type stuff. You know, B.B. King, Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, Ray Charles, etc. But some other stuff is good, a bit of classical doesn't go astray, and I'm a fan of Il Divo as well.

[Ceirwan]

Hey, that's quite different to others around here. Good on you for liking jazz and classical! Do you play an instrument? I would have thought lots of people who like that type of music play it as well.

Music and Books... two of my favourite topics... combined on this site. how awesome.

My favourite music/musicians are:

Regina Spektor
Jack Johnson
The Killers
The Fray
My Chemical Romance
The White Stripes
Cat Power
Ima Robot
Yeah Yeah Yeah's
Eskimo Joe
Evermore
Sleepy Jackson
We are Scientists
and many many more, but i won't bore you with the details!!

My favourite song at the moment is "world spins madly on" by the weepies. it's so cruisy and relaxing. love it.

*dances away from computer*

[Lina]

I soooo need some new music to listen too!! Any ideas??? I'm more a fan of punk rock, lol or something I can sing along to... not a BIG fan of pop, but I don't hate it to bits... just try to avoid it

But seriously, I would love some new songs to listen too

[alwayslove]

punk rock... cool.

what sort of stuff do you already listen to?

I'm not sure what really classify's as punk rock, I'm a bit dodgy about classifications, most of it crosses over anyway.

Anti-flag are good. You like?

[Lina]

Um, well nothing really too hard-core. At the moment (okay, so not all of these are punk rock but...)

Panic at the Disco, Killing Heidi, Evanescence um... lol main 3 I'm listening too, I also like Millencolin, Green Day, some AFI and Sum 41, The Killers old stuff (not a big fan of their new stuff).

And that is all I can think off the top of my head for the moment

[alwayslove]

That stuff's great! the killers are one of my favourite bands. 'Hot fuss' was a great album and I still think 'Sam's town' is a great album but in a different way.

Panic at the disco are also gooooood. I like them a lot.

I'd recommend.... (going by what you said)(not sure if you'd know/like these)

Anti-Flag's "this is the end (for you my friend)"
Ima Robot's "creeps me out" www.myspace.com/imarobot
End of fashion, Artic Monkeys, The kooks, Tegan and Sara.

Have a listen and let me know what you think!!

One song I have NOT been able to get out of my head recently is "Thanks for your time" by Gotye. It's kinda different, but cool.

Does anyone here watch JTV?
