Commentary is at the bottom, but first, this week's songs are:
- Blue Öyster Cult, "Shooting Shark" - this is a lot more 80s than most of their stuff that I've heard, but I absolutely loooove it (new discovery) (and yes, I do love 80s stuff in general. hehe).
- Janet Jackson, "Velvet Rope" - a relatively recent (i.e. last year or two) discovery as well. Beautiful song, and the album is great too!
- Seam, "Sweet Pea" - a very rockin' alt. rock song, one of my all-time faves by this band, who I discovered by accident because my dad gave me a Seam CD he'd bought second hand and didn't want anymore.
- VAST, "Lost" - it took me so long to finally buy this VAST album (Visual Audio Sensory Theatre) but I am very glad I did, and this song is one of the reasons.
- Mylo, "In My Arms" - I do like the odd bit of dance music, and I can thank a dance-mad friend for introducing me to this guy & a few of his songs that I really like!
- Stabbing Westward, "When I’m Dead" - lovely depressing gothic-ness, I suppose. haha.
- Bullet For My Valentine, "Forever And Always" - this track seems to get a bit of flack from BFMV fans, but I like it! So there!
- Alice In Chains, "Private Hell" - this is from the "new" Alice in Chains, sans Layne Staley. I was a little bit doubtful, personally, about AIC continuing after Layne's tragic demise, but this song is an e.g. of how they're doing it right (in my opinion).
And that wraps up another Sunday Session as well as another week! I hope everyone's had a great weekend, and I'll see you next week!
I wish I had an internet connection that didn't take forever to load video, because I'd love to hear the song you put up. Have a great Sunday :)
ReplyDeleteI know how that is Laura...gahh, stupid slow internet!
DeleteGreat songs! I really love the Alice In Chains one, sounds so close to the same, amazing!
ReplyDeleteI know, the guy does a good job of filling in for Layne!
DeleteIt's always interesting to hear what kind of music people listen to. It says a lot about a person, I think.
ReplyDeleteI agree! Of course, my music taste is pretty varied, so I wonder what that days...? hehe
DeleteWow.
ReplyDeleteI cannot remember the last Janet Jackson song I listened to.
Crazy :D
This is the main one I listen to, and I only have heard one of her albums (THE VELVET ROPE, naturally) in full. I've wanted to explore her music further for a fair while though.
DeleteStabbing Westward, Alice in Chains and Bullet for My Valentine in one post!!! I'm squealing. I want to swap CD collections with you!
ReplyDeleteI should show off a list of all the CDs I own :) There are many! But many more still that I have yet to buy!
DeleteGood music choices. I need to put some of this on my MP3 player.
ReplyDelete........dhole
No worries Donna, glad you enjoyed! :)
DeleteI used to love Alice in Chains in college~ haven't listened to them in a long time, though, so thanks for the recommendation on their newer stuff!
ReplyDeleteNo worries :) I still love all the music of my youth (high school days) which included AIC. Of course I still love all the older stuff I knew when I was a kid, too :D (Madonna, Michael Jackson, etc.)
DeleteSuch great tracks! Love me some Velvet Rope. :)
ReplyDeleteJanet is definitely full of soul! :)
DeleteJanet! It's been so long since I heard one of her songs. :)
ReplyDeleteShe's very groovy is she not? hehe
DeleteGreat songs. I think the first one is my favourite too.
ReplyDeleteIt's a little bit addictive for me right now!
DeleteI've never heard of any of these songs before . . . thanks for the videos!
ReplyDeleteNo worries, glad you liked them! :)
DeleteAll of these are new to me. I liked some and not so much others but in general, these are good recommendations. Thanks Trisha :)
