Whose music video has the band on a roof?
Hahah I was going to say, it reminded me of Paralizer, but I wasn't sure if it was the genre you were looking for.
Classic Rock song, starts with piano that sounds like its from the 1700's? maybe Queen?
i was listening to the radio today and this song came on the classic rock station and it started out playing the piano alone and it sounded like one from the 1700's. then the lyrics start and im not sure, but all i could make out were "think of all the things you'll see" and "carry on." then towards the end of the song they just played all their instruments. it sounds like freddy mercury from Queen, but i dont know for sure. any ideas???
"as romeo and juliet" a rock song lyric?
Don't fear the reaper? (Blue Oyster Cult) All our times have come Here but now they're gone Seasons don't fear the reaper Nor do the wind, the sun or the rain..we can be like they are Come on baby...don't fear the reaper Baby take my hand...don't fear the reaper We'll be able to fly...don't fear the reaper Baby I'm your man... Valentine is done Here but now they're gone Romeo and Juliet*** Are together in eternity...Romeo and Juliet*** 40,000 men and women everyday...Like Romeo and Juliet*** 40,000 men and women everyday...Redefine happiness Another 40,000 coming everyday...We can be like they are Come on baby...don't fear the reaper Baby take my hand...don't fear the reaper We'll be able to fly...don't fear the reaper Baby I'm your man... Love of two is one Here but now they're gone Came the last night of sadness And it was clear she couldn't go on Then the door was open and the wind appeared The candles blew then disappeared The curtains flew then he appeared...saying don't be afraid Come on baby...and she had no fear And she ran to him...then they started to fly They looked backward and said goodby...she had become like they are She had taken his hand...she had become like they are Come on baby...don't fear the reaper
What is the difference between gay music and other music?
To give specifics, do you mean Rob Halford (Judas Priest)? or Cole Porter? Or Kathleen Hanna (Bikini Kill, LeTigre)? Or The Indigo Girls?I think if you name the music you mean by gay (and the only way I can make sense of that is as the dance music played at gay clubs), the difference will be obvious. That said, the difference from dance club to dance club is going to be bigger than the difference between a typical straight dance club and a typical gay dance club (unless you go on some sort of oldies night, in which case, more Sylvester ;).[A friend added Pet Shop Boys as a Not Halford musician, which made me think of Porter...]
Why is today's music such garbage?
As a trained classical musician with a big love of jazz and rock I believe there are several reasons for this very sad phenomenon. There are a number of exceptions to this but most pop performers up through the 60s were well trained musicians – Frank Sinatra supposedly studied and copied two people – Tommy Dorsey and the violinist Jascha Heifetz for instance. The Beatles were disciples of all kinds of music from classical to Indian and were serious about learning and performing it at a high level.Another thing that has changed, is that through the mid 70s the recording industry was wide open to very creative talent. There is no way a guy like Frank Zappa could ever get a recording contract now. Or Yes or Genesis or probably not even the Kinks. Those open minded days of rewarding and developing creativity, for all intent and purposes, ended in 1976 with the advent of disco. And then a few years later in the early 80s, MTV and music videos drove the final stake home. From that point on pretty much all that is allowed to get produced at a high level (excepting performers that were already established like Bowie and Gabriel etc) is dance music - and the performer must look great on camera. (Think Madonna) End of story.The third reason is that in the good old days (ha!) many people, myself included, just listened to music without doing anything else. Could you imagine? That art form is now largely extinct but there were many times that we would listen to a new LP by whoever and not utter a single word until it had played all the way through. Both sides. No texting, no phoning, no multi-tasking of any kind. No anything except our undivided attention. People can’t even do that in a live concert situation anymore!So now, mostly what we've got are a bunch of beautiful people, dancing more than singing, and being so overproduced that the actual performer doesn't really exist on the recording. All vocals are sifted through and re-synced and re-pitched. Could you imagine doing that for Ella Fitzgerald or Aretha Franklin or Marvin Gaye? No you can’t! And neither could they. Of course there are some special talents out there like Christina Aguilera and Lady Gaga but sadly they are (mostly) forced to sing bad dance music.BTW, I have nothing against dance music, it's just my belief that it's not made for listening, only dancing, and we'd all be better off... if it stayed that way.
