Re: When will we be done with MP3s (if ever)?

I personally don't mind MP3, and only in certain types of music is anything noticeable when comparing MP3 to a format like wav or AIF. But then again, everything I've ever listened to on digital equipment (or almost everything) was MP3, and all the recordings I've ever made were wav, but my first re...

Re: 7/4/15 Eagles

I like Desperado and Hotel California about equally, but whenever I hear Wasted Time, all my childhood memories come back.

Re: What would you do?

Make an album inspired by some low-budget movie that very few people watched, like Debbie Does Dallas.

Re: 4/20/15 John Valby

That Caravan Ray comparison is spot-on! I knew I'd stir up the forum a little by posting his name instead of a serious rocker's name! My favorite is probably his version of Barnacle Bill.

4/20/15 John Valby

Now for the more "barroom" or "tavern song" side of the common folks' music. What is your favorite song by good ol' Dr. Dirty, John Valby?

Re: How did you find out about Song Fight?

I found out about Song Fight when I looked up MC Frontalot on Wikipedia after hearing him rap when watching random rap music videos on YouTube.

Re: 4/10/15 Stevie Wonder

Being blind myself, I read a biography of Stevie Wonder several years ago, and I thought it was an interesting story. I've known the song Someday at Christmas all my life, and Heaven is just Ten Zillion Light Years Away. But picking a favorite is tough! Probably Someday at Christmas, but I know if I...

Re: 4/9/15 Madonna

Like a Virgin is definitely my favorite. Oh, and thanks for the rarely-scene Weird Al music video reference! I heard Madonna's 2012 album MDNA, which has that "Give Me All Your Lovin'" song on it, and I like it almost as much as her old stuff, but not quite.

Re: 4/4/15 The Ramones

My favorite is not a full-length Ramones song, but the scene on The Simpsons, likely an early or mid 1990s episode, where the Ramones sing a happy birthday song for Mr. Burns, and neither the Ramones nor Mr. Burns seem to like it.

I know, right? A lot of people know right away what the original rap song is, but Pastime Paradise is more of a forgotten song. I have a hard time choosing my favorite. Stop Forwarding That Crap to Me and Don't Download This Song (both originals), and Perform This Way and Handy (parodies). I got the...

An interesting piece of Fingertips trivia: Did you know that for the 20th anniversary of the Apollo 18 album a couple years ago, a bunch of amateur gamers/game developers got online and made eighteen short games for the eighteen Fingertips songs?

Re: 4/2/15 Queen

My favorite is Bohemian Rhapsody, due to the varying music styles found throughout the song, and Freddy Murcury's multitracked vocals. Another One Bites the Dust is close, but Bohemian Rhapsody is cream of the crop!

Re: Glenn Case - Lies

A lot of the songfighters have their albums scattered everywhere! Remember Jim of Seattle? His Bandcamp page only has his second album, but his first one is on Green Monkey, but not on Bandcamp. Scattered! Hate when that happens!
