# Anyone interested?
I took it upon myself to keep a running tally of songs mentioned during last weeks' song flashback QOTW. I then took the most mentioned songs and collected them into 2 CDs to burn for my travelling pleasure. (I know, no iPod... I'm *so* 20th century.) If anyone would like, I can make a torrent of them so others may burn them or load them onto a portable digital music player. I would just need a webpage to upload the torrent to. Anyone game?

# I wouldnt trust 90% of poeple here's music taste
(I helped save b3ta! StickFigureNinja is worried he may be on the list, Sat 2 Apr 2005, 2:23, archived)
# Meh
Some is decent, but there are some good and even great tunes included. There's a lot of 80s. The most mentioned tune was Creep by Radiohead.

MIKE OLDFIELD AND KEANE!!! LOL! ROFLE!

I do, actually. *cries*

# Well
you seem to like (the) Eels, so that alone makes you great. Keane aren't bad,
they just got too popular and now it's a bad thing to like them.
(I helped save b3ta! The Neville What what what, Sat 2 Apr 2005, 2:29, archived)
# I liked Keane
but overplayed there album, so now i put it on every now and then.

reminds me of summer, and a girl.

I wish more things reminded me of girls...

*needs more girls*

*basically, needs a girl*

# too true
(I helped save b3ta! GrandmaOfShoes, Sat 2 Apr 2005, 2:46, archived)
# Yeah, Eels rule.
I dont dislike Keane, they just seem a bit bland to me, so I cant bring myself to listen to the album.
I would list what I like here but I know SSG would mock it immediately, no matter what it was.
(I helped save b3ta! StickFigureNinja is worried he may be on the list, Sat 2 Apr 2005, 2:34, archived)
# I think Keane
have musical talent, they just (probably not intentionally) went down the path of trying to appeal to lots of people with melodic piano-pop.
It's not that their stuff is bland, it's just more... well.. "Easy listening". Which probably isn't the best.
(I helped save b3ta! The Neville What what what, Sat 2 Apr 2005, 2:38, archived)
# Ahhhhhhhh
Well, who cares, new Eels album this month and tour month after that.
Oooh yeah.

And Neil Hannon is apparently on the Hitchhikers Guide soundtrack, which is awesome.

# Is it? Is he?
Ooh, *keeps an eye open*

I've been listening to the new Beck album for the last week or so. That's rather fine too.
(I helped save b3ta! The Neville What what what, Sat 2 Apr 2005, 2:43, archived)
# Yeah, Mr Hannon is doing a version of So Long And Thanks For All The Fish
and I like what little Beck I've heard, but never ever bought any of his stuff.
(I helped save b3ta! StickFigureNinja is worried he may be on the list, Sat 2 Apr 2005, 2:45, archived)
# Beautiful stuff.
The main reason I like Beck is that he seems to be a fellow mentalist, like myself. His music is just, well, mad.

I might buy Guero at some point.

They were once described as a guitar band.

# Hate Keane
Love teh Oldfield. He's wot inspired me to play geetar.
(I helped save b3ta! Shuya Nanahara Sayonara, Sat 2 Apr 2005, 2:46, archived)
# Too true.
My favourite album, and I'll happily admit this because I'm drunk, is "The Songs of Distant Earth".
It's the only album which has ever sounded like its been deeply inspired by sci-fi novels and the great unimaginable Universe. Which is a good thing.
(I helped save b3ta! The Neville What what what, Sat 2 Apr 2005, 2:49, archived)
# Yeah I like that album a lot
Although most Oldfield fans I know say it's new age crap (Rik hates it too I think). Nah I thought the guitar on it was amazing and went well with the synthy stuff. I loved the Voyager album as well. He has some excellent Celtic interpretations. Anyway that's my guff on that. I still say you can't beat his old albums though :D
(I helped save b3ta! Shuya Nanahara Sayonara, Sat 2 Apr 2005, 2:52, archived)
# Voyager is great too
There are a few things he did which do sound quite hippy-ish, but he has been rather experimental in his time.
I got hold of Amarok the other day, that's pretty messed up!
(I helped save b3ta! The Neville What what what, Sat 2 Apr 2005, 3:02, archived)
# Oh God!
Amarok is enough to make me jizz hehe. That's a hell of an album. I've sat down many a time trying to work out some of the guitar parts. It's too fecking hard man. That album is incredible. One of the best around in my opinion. Then I could go on about Ommadawn but I digress hehe ;)
(I helped save b3ta! Shuya Nanahara Sayonara, Sat 2 Apr 2005, 3:05, archived)
# Still need to get Ommadawn..
Ha ha, your profile is pretty much exactly like mine would be, just swap "Photographer" with "Web designer". I still need to make some money out of it. Just started though so...

*once again, doesn't do any work, just sits there listening to music*
(I helped save b3ta! The Neville What what what, Sat 2 Apr 2005, 3:08, archived)
# Yay!
Lots of respect for you man. Yeah I need to get off my arse and do something. It's catch 22 with me. I need a cam to make money but I need money to get a cam that I can do what I want with. But hey, you're probably in a better career pathway ;)

Then, at some point after that, I might have customers... CUSTOMERS*!!! A-ha ha ha!

# No apologies
I'm not saying it's spectacular. It is what it is. No rhyme or reason, just based on responses to the QOTW. Only editing I did was based on availibilities of mp3s, and censoring absolute shite I wouldn't want on my stereo. (i.e. Britney Spears' Toxic and Kylie Minogue)
(monkey explosion, Sat 2 Apr 2005, 2:37, archived)
# Hahahahaha!
Yeah I can agree with you there. Just burn what you like from the QOTW instead of the crap stuff that found its way in hehe

compilations are those that are really just one persons idea of what is best - no compromises.
You make other people appreciate what you like. It's a good thing.
