MatthewSchwartz Posted January 8, 2009 Posted January 8, 2009 Regina Spektor's other music is good as well... Quote
wilkiemart Posted January 8, 2009 Posted January 8, 2009 Yea someone mentioned steely dan and zappa, they are great Quote
DeepSeaSeamus Posted January 9, 2009 Posted January 9, 2009 How the heck is Zappa pop music. I guess a few of his more lyric based works are a bit poppy but only in a kind of ironic sense... Quote
Qmwne235 Posted January 9, 2009 Posted January 9, 2009 Well, I think this is meant as popular music, not strictly pop. Quote
M. Bulteau Posted January 9, 2009 Posted January 9, 2009 You've never heard that song before?I usually don't like Regina Spektor much, but that song is pretty good. I like The Call besides this one. Nice find, robin! Quote
kromatozomika Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Regina's stuff <3 I'm pretty fond of her earlier albums like 11:11 as well, definitely worth a listen if you enjoy her sound and storytelling.... Oh, and while we're at it.. :) YouTube - Ben Folds - You Don't Know Me (feat Regina Spektor) Quote
M. Bulteau Posted January 30, 2009 Posted January 30, 2009 This song is nice, but what really caught me was the trippy video. Her Morning Elegance - Oren Lavie Quote
Ferkungamabooboo Posted January 30, 2009 Posted January 30, 2009 My morning jacket really enhances her morning elegance when there's a panic at the disco. Quote

HeckelphoneNYC Posted November 14, 2009 Posted November 14, 2009 I just so happened to not like pop music. Sorry :P Quote
Yachar Posted November 14, 2009 Posted November 14, 2009 No sense being so cruel, Nirvana - the kid just wants to have a good musical taste. A thing that I, for example, only possess at some moments. The other times I just want to let the rule of cool rule. :whistling: So.. Pop. I enjoy Clannad. Irish folk-pop-rock-new age band. Basically popularized Irish music. Incredibly tight band, much because every member is related to each other, as far as I've heard. Then REM. Though I hear that some people with absolute hearing HATE Michael Stipe because he sings a bit out of tune. It's a good thing I don't have absolute pitch then. :D And dare I say it... I enjoy a song now and then by Coldplay. I was a fan at the beginning of their career, now I don't care about a lot of their output, but the last album (even though the hype-aversion gets to a lot of people) was, I think, quite good. It even had some proggy tracks like these ones: Quote
Spoon284 Posted November 15, 2009 Posted November 15, 2009 I just so happened to not like pop music.Sorry :P Pop is a lot more diverse than the stuff you hear on the radio. Try not to dismiss such a broad category outright. Here's a random sample of some of the stuff I like which you may or may not also like: Pink Floyd - Us and Them The Beatles - A Day in the Life (Who can resist that massive orchestral... thing around 1:50!) Portishead - We Carry On Autechre - Pen Expers (Not for the faint hearted! Really crazy stuff.) Aphex Twin - Meltphace 6 Quote

I'll listen in EDIT: First song is weird....second is...O.o..on the third, will anyone kill me if I think it's out of tune? :/ no. 4.......uhm........uhh......5 doesn't change enough..6 is actually....kinda pretty, but it, again doesn't change a whole lot. 7, the melody is kinda cool, but the backbeat is so distracting.

Qmwne235 Posted November 15, 2009 Posted November 15, 2009 One song I'm not allowed to like (I have a reputation to maintain!) but I can't get out of my mind is Vanilla Puff by Nan Quan Mama. Haven't found a good youtube recording yet. Other songs I like: YouTube - The Pixies : Where Is My Mind (1988) YouTube - Nirvana - Polly YouTube - Beck - E-Pro: Revised Audio Again Version, Closed Captioned YouTube - TV On The Radio - Wolf Like Me YouTube - Belle & Sebastian -If You're Feeling Sinister- The Oren Lavie song on page 19 and to conclude, my current absolute favorites: YouTube - Modest Mouse - Interstate 8 Quote
pliorius Posted November 15, 2009 Posted November 15, 2009 how is autechre pop music?! now, all non academic music is pop?! Quote
Qmwne235 Posted November 15, 2009 Posted November 15, 2009 ^Meaning pop like "popular", not pop like Britney/Miley-style (which really isn't a real style either since Britney and Miley are quite different...). Contemporary dance music doesn't fit in the rather restrictive category of art music, in a practical sense. Quote
