What is it I'm listening to? - Page 23

What am I listening to right now?

A friend turned me on to a song that was a big hit last year. "Those Beautiful Girls" by Sean Kingston. I am no Hip Hop fan at all in any sense of the word. However the song strikes a chord with me since the song's melody is a sampling of "Stand By Me" This is exactly how The Drifters would sound if they were a Hip Hop group. The only difference is that it ends so abruptly as many of these similar songs do for Radio play. I get lost in the song and then the ending shakes me violently back to reality. That almost kills the attraction for me. I give it A fade out instead would give it a higher rating from me.

I used to have a disco version of Stairway to Heaven and Whole Lotta Love. REAL disco: not just a remix: somebody re-recorded the songs as disco. Unfortunately, they have both disappeared and I have thus far been unable to locate anywhere.

I've got a disco recording of Stairway to Heaven - it's great music for the toilet.

I'm sorry if this is not the right place to put this. I have a request if someone happens to be a record collector or a musical scholar.

We took our birthday money and indulged in a post-Coachella splurge at Virgin.

Holy F*ck
Portishead
Sons & Daughters
Architecture in Helsinki
Kraftwerk

And for good measure, we bought a Man Man album and a 2nd Sons & Daughters album from Amazon.

I'm feeling pretty sated.

I'm listening to randomness on my iPod, and I just realized that I should turn it down...
