    What American English sounds like to foreigners.

    My husband found this last week and it's been stuck in my head since. A nice late 60s/early 70s clip. Nonsense with a sick groove. BZXcRqFmFa8

    A collector's worst nightmare:

    I have a problem. And I mean, a really big problem. How big of a problem are we talking? I'd say it's over 200 LPs worth of a problem. I'm moving from one end of the country to another. Possibly just with a one-way flight. Now here's the question of the century. How am I supposed...

    In other words, if you're a ... ...straight man, who are some male musicians that almost make you swoon? ...straight woman, who are some female musicians that you just might have a girl crush on? ...gay man, who are some women of music that get the blood rushing? ...gay woman, who...

    Disturbing lyrics (PC WARNING: May include adult content.)

    (I have a feeling this thread might get a little bit explicit, so I figured I'd add a political correctness/trigger warning for those who might not be amused.) We all know them. Songs with lyrics that are disturbing. Weird. Unusual. Even a little shameful, or so overly sexual they're...

    Marc Bolan: The National Elf

    Keep reading... This is a REALLY long and informative article about Marc Bolan's career and personal life. It's a fabulous read for fans and newcomers to his music alike. Though I deeply wish I could time travel and pick up where June left off. Marc was kind of a sad case, below all the...

    Famously incoherent vocals?

    Ever hear a song where you can't make out what the hell their vocalist is singing because they sound like they've lazed the entire way through the song? In other words, they're gargling marbles and vomiting the lyrics all over the place. In other words, the music's good, but the singer is...

    I Second That Emotion: Japan vs. Smokey Robinson

    ABBA - Voulez Vous (1979)

    At the tail end of disco's popularity there was at least one candle burning to keep it in the charts for just a while longer - and it was held by four glamorous pop superstars from Sweden. These four individuals consisted of: Agnetha Fältskog Anni-Frid "Frida" Lyngstad Björn...

    Vinyl nerds: I have a problem.

    Well, it's more like a question, but it's definitely a problem. You know how sometimes vinyl can get concave/warped? You know, like it's ... bent? I went to put on an LP today and the damn thing was just, bent shitless (though, I must be fair, it was left in a hot car a long time ago). So now...

    Protest songs

    What are some anti-war, pro-peace songs you know of? Among the many things I love in this world, protest of war is one of the most important. Let's take a break from the asinine senselessness of war, and reminisce of the brave, incredible individuals who have spoken out against it. I'll begin...

    Some rockers age well. Others look like Dawn of the Dead extras. Name 5 rockers who have aged well. Then name 5 rockers who have not. ;D

    Happy thread with happy music for musical happiness.

    Complete with redundant title of redundancy. Anyway, post a song that's just ... happy. Good, clean, innocent loveliness. In such a glum time of year for many of us in the states and other places above the equator, happiness is necessary. Let's have it. I'll start. E_v468ptuXw...
