How many CD's do you own? And how big is your closet?

btw, check out some Cher. I have a thread on it now.

Not many. Most of my music is from iTunes. I made a thread in the Religion and Politics forum explaining why so I won't explain it again.

I'll get around to it eventually. It's not like I'm avoiding it. And record labels are necessarily allowing their music on youtube. Youtube puts on a really innocent face, but it's one of the biggest distributors of pirated music.

Well then, the pirated music should be taken off of YT, because they can do that. But it doesn't happen.

So far, thye album's pretty good. But Jason still hasn't answered my question. Will he, or will he not, listen to that album on YT?

If YT was stealing, then why are album companies allowing their songs on YouTube? It's not stealing.

It is a good song. My favorites on In Utero are probably the four in the "Very Ape" through "Radio Friendly Unit Shifter" sequence. Other than that, while I like all the music, there isn't much that stands out for me on that album.

The same thing happened with Bat out of Hell. When it was first released, the crew and Epic Records said it didn't really fit with any musical style or decade. That's kinda why I like it... it's different.

Anyway, the next song coming up is Heart-Shaped Box, and i have some high hopes for it. I really think it'll be good.

I'm trying really hard to avoid resorting to personal insults here, but you're an idiot if you're going to not listen to Bleach just because Dave Grohl wasn't in the band. What do you have to lose by listening to it? It might even be your favorite Nirvana album.

It seems like you didn't try very hard, considering how you did resort to personal insult.

Seth said Nirvana can make bad stuff sound good. That means Seth admits that Nirvana can be bad.

Look, my final opinion of Nirvana is this: They're OK. They have good songs, they have grwat songs, and they have very bad songs such as Territorial Pissings and Stay Away. I will listen to other Nirvana albums because i don't hate them. I just think they're EXTREMELY overrated. But they can be enjoyable. Lithium is one of those songs I really move to (body wise).

Can be bad... no... makes amazing dissonant, rough tones, etc... yes.

I think you come from a different musical generation and that is ok. I actually listened to the fist song off that Meat Loaf album. I can see the appeal musically... but I just don't like the emptiness of the human element in it... but you can go listen to that, and I will go listen to the artists that protested it and Van Halen and everyone else on your top ten but Led Zeppelin...

I have been trying to find the exact quote from The Edge of U2 about how they purposely didn't want to write music that the world was inundated with at the time... 10 minute guitar solos and notes running all over the place... they rejected that type of music... that is why they are called an Alternative band.

Anyways, to each his own. And no, there are no female choices (sarcasm if you can't see).

If anything, my favorite would be Nevermind because it has SLTS and Lithium on it.

I'll listen to it after In Utero, which I'm listening to right now, but YOU have to listen to Bat 2, Jason. ASAP!

Can you expect anything better from JMan?

If their "best" album has really good and really bad stuff, I know what the other albums are like. It's grunge. But like I said, I'll be listening to In Utero and a couple live ones. Not Bleach, because I like my Dave Grohl.

^Yes, all of this, also all of the conflicted emotions that Kurt conveys really speaks to me.

It was too "This is how it is!" and not enough explanation as to why they are good.

Ok this is why I think their music is awesome. This statement wraps it up, but may sound weird to someone who doesn't understand them: They make shitty stuff sound good :), they make stuff that sounds good, amazing and full of heart. I mean take the song Endless, Nameless (hidden track on Nevermind at the end). That song is pure shit, but AMAZING and full of raw emotion. It even is chanllenging when it comes to music theory. I haven't figured it out yet, but it sounds like they have tuned to some weird tuning, allowing them to go into a rage of craziness, but then come back to something that is beautiful, but still messed up.

Then you have a song like All Apologies. Def a top most beautiful songs ever written for me. It's melody is simple, the singing is heartfelt (real heartfelt, none of this Disney shit), and the structure of the song is just solid.

Then you have their Smells Like Teen Spirit kind of stuff that is just solid rock (punk). This should be self explanatory why they do amazing at this stuff... if you don't get it... keep trying... if you have put in an honest effort... I feel sorry for you.

On top of their music, they also gave the finger to the man, and anyone that can do that and gather people around to do that too. I like that person.
