Walter John Posted November 2, 2007 Report Share Posted November 2, 2007 Well I thought it time to make my move in the old ohanna Nouie nouii, oh baby, I gotta go. Yi-yi-yi-yi-yi Nouie nouii, oh baby, I gotta go. So what's some music you've heard lately you like, that's at least new to you ? For me, it's Bryan Ferry's album "Dylanesque". Excellent covers of the man, especially "Simple twist of fate" and "All along the watchtower". Another is Bob Schneider, some great songs by this guy. What's got your attention music lovers ?

Kim Posted November 2, 2007 Report Share Posted November 2, 2007 Wal-- I heard a new bit I liked on the radio by a band called 'Pinback', but I don't remember the name of the tune...typical of me, sorry Wal. So Paul, tell me about some good Hawaiian music that the locals listen to. Heard any? The last time I was there I bought a couple of CD's, they make a much better-than-average souvenir. Camizero Brothers? Masters of the Slack Key Guitar? Something like that. (Hope you are taking lots of pictures!)

junglegalfla Posted November 4, 2007 Report Share Posted November 4, 2007 I've been listening to a band called Locksley. If you like The Beatles, Kinks, Joe Jackson, White Stripes you'll dig them. They describe their music as The Beatles mixed w/ modern garage rock. The lead singer sounds like Paul McCartney.

ruskinPalms Posted November 5, 2007 Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 Well I am a big fan of System of a Down. Always have been. The lead singer (serj tankian) has done a solo "project" that actually seems to rock. I have heard a few songs, but I don't own the album yet. I probably will buy it. The album is called Elect the Dead. I have not heard it all but probably very political at times and dark the rest of time. By the way metalfan, nice selection. You must be a great mother to have!

metalfan Posted November 5, 2007 Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 Bill, my daughter and her friends are Naruto and Manga junkies. They take Naruto clips, put them to music and post them on YouTube. They view other people's clips incessantly, and since they are mainly "battle scenes" the music has to be fast and furious. So she likes Korn, Slipknot, A7X, AFI, Spineshank, and all sorts of other stuff. They don;t use any Hip Hop or Rap in these things so that's GREAT IMO, as that is anaethama to the true heavy metaler, LOL "You can't see California without Marlon Brando's eyes"---SliPknot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morabeza Posted November 6, 2007 Report Share Posted November 6, 2007 pohonkelapa your post made crack up! I remember my first time here in Hawai`i, in 1998 before moving here, I was driving around Kaua`i and was really cracking up with some of the local creations, I'm afraid I'm partial to classic Hawaiian music. piouspalms, I was really impressed when I saw Hapa in concert. They opened for Bonnie Raitt at the Waikiki Shell, apparently she is also a fan. The haole guy is really amazing on that guitar. Eric in Orlando, thanks for the link of Dave Gahan's 'Kingdom' music video. It was an awesome video and a cool song. The light effects were sweet!, esp the light eminating through his teeth. For my part, lately I have been loving Annie Lennox's newly released Album, Songs of Mass Destruction. I've been a fan for a few years and every song is powerful.

Kim Posted November 11, 2007 Report Share Posted November 11, 2007 I'm checking out all the stuff listed (except the metal, sorry Gina, it just isn't me, but it is so YOU, which is great, seriously, something for everyone). I heard something a second time that I have also read about that I am going to buy, and I don't buy music that often anymore. It's a dual effort between Robert Plant and Alison Krauss called 'Raising Sand', and the tune I heard was 'Gone, Gone, Gone' and it was HOT (by my definition). Produced by T. Bone Burnett, so you know it's good!

I love the minor guitars and Willie's voice. Love the words to this as well. I like songs where I can actually learn the words and sing along. I am partial to Jimmy Buffet, Marty Robbins, Gary Allen (his "Smoke Rings in the Dark" gives me shivers every time I hear it), Toby Keith, Kenny Chesney. I was in high school in the mid-60s but hated the music. It just grates on my nerves. Now when I am home working I listen to big band music on cable or new age.
