How did I not know this song existed until tonight?? It's gorgeous! The rest of her stuff is awesome too!

I watched the Rocky Horror Picture Show recently, and all of the songs are just awesome. This one is sang by Meatloaf.

My song obsession of the moment...


SO good for warrior/military characters! And just flat out excellent for getting pumped up.

Yeah, okay, had to share this one, too. The video is a fan-made game-play video (there isn't an official video that I can find), but the song is "Villain" by Theory of a Deadman. The lyrics are somewhat explicit, so NSFW - but an awesome song for fun antagonists!

I've been listening to covers of TV show and anime theme songs on YouTube. :p This one is one of my favourites, a cover/remix of the Twin Peaks theme on cello, done by one of the old members of Apocalyptica (for the metal fans here).

Lately I've been listening to a lot of Ska and Dub (variations of reggae)

The Skatalites have been around for a very long time.

Very nice Scribble. I was lucky to see the Skatalites last year at a music festival, they've still got what it takes.

Wow, jealous, I'd love to see them, of course there are some lineup changes since the first albums. I have always liked reggae, but somehow I managed to never heard of them until this year. Now I'm digging through everything I can find.

There's another band I like now, The Aggrolites, I'd love to see them live awesome energy ska

One of my old favorites I am listening to for the 3rd time today :), the 1979 reggae album -Slatyam stoot by Toots and the Maytals. If you dig some old soulful reggae, this is the stuff.

I may have linked this before - in this very thread - but here it is again:
It's one of my favorit lazy-summer-morning kind of songs and it fits perfectly with what I want to write at the moment.

I don't want to make you jealous again, but the year previously I saw Toots and the Maytals at the same festival. Toots was 66 at the time, but he was bouncing and dancing round the stage, and really playing for the audience. If you get the chance to see them go for it.

I'm all kinds of jealous! I listened to a live show off Youtube this morning, he's great on stage, you can feel the love coming through.

I've recently found myself drawn to soundtracks, such as "Frozen", "Once Upon a Time", "How to Train Your Dragon", "Shanghai Noon". Also lyric-free music, but especially Celtic Woman. OMG, their songs are SO beautiful.

I just discovered this little gem:


Trine 2 (and Trine) is one of the prettiest most fairy-taley games I've played and the music fits just perfectly. Well worth it for some inspirational listening when trying to get into the mood for some of the classic story elements: trolls, goblins, knights, wizards, all that. Enjoy. I know I am. :D
