I will try to keep this to the 70's, 80's, and 90's.

The first song is back some 20 years ago from 1991.

Bingo Boys Featuring Princessa, How To Dance.

Would be very surprised if anyone here knows this song. It charted in the Top 40 briefly and quickly fell off. But I remember it and got a kick out of the song.

If samples from Chic's Dance, Dance, Dance (Yowsah, Yowsah, Yowsah) and Silvester, Dance Disco Heat.

My favorite line from it is, "Show you how to dance. It's like sex. Start out dry and end up all wet."

I guess I am in an early 90's Ambient House/Techno/Dance/Eletronic mood tonight.

Here is a song from 1990. The Orb - Little Fluffy Clouds. This song takes clips from a Rickie Lee Jones interview.

I was going to throw a KLF song in here for number three, but wanted to change up the genre a bit. I came across my Metallica collection and I strongly considered a song from 1991's "The Black Album."

But I decided to go with Veruca Salt's 1997 Volcano Girls.

I actually use to start the flight on my early international trips with this video because it put me in such a good mood. (On top of the fact I was departing for a trip.)

Metallica should always come in first place. They are God.

You know Xen, you have such a.... er.....um..... interesting taste in music. You know that don't you?

You are being too polite, aren't you Murasaki?

Ok, so here we go with some choices I wanted to post last night.

1992
Metallica - Wherever I May Roam.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cwPg8gJq_Kw

Erasure and Depeche Mode were probably too of my favorites groups throughout the 80's and 90's.

Here is 1991's Love to Hate You by Erasure.

Lastly, we will end with Culture Beat's Anything from 1993.

I do tend to lean towards liking Dance/Electronic/Synth Pop/House/Techno. But I can quite easily go from say Peter, Paul, and Mary to the Carpenters, to Metallica, Van Halen, AC/DC and Bwana Dik's Linkin Park and then to some of the stuff listed above.

And then I can even do main stream pop like Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, and Madonna. And THEN, I can even go to foreign music like Brazil's Luka, some Mexican artists like Paulina Rubio, Marco Antonio Solis, Pedro Fernández, Thalia, Rebelde, Shakira (know she is from Colombia, but I like some of her Spanish stuff before she became a mainstream US pop artist), to Thai songs and even some Thai rap, to Indonesian pop and like Drive's Bersama Bintang, Melly's Gantung, Lólita's Emang Gua Pikirin, and of course Naff's Akhirnya ku Menemukanmu.

And while I like Yolanda Be Cool's remix of We No Speak Americano, I also like and appreciate Renato Carosone's original Tu Vuò Fà L'Americano from 1956.

So I would characterize my musical taste's as extremely eclectic, regardless of how others may characterize it.

I would definitely say my music thread is better. Of course it's rarely played in whore bars!

Whatever happened to Porker's song of the day?

Xen-

Eclectic or indiscriminate?

Just kiddin'!

BD:

Just for that I will torture the community with two more early 90's selections.

1991. Nitzer Ebb. Family Man.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mmKdRNg8ZYk

1991. The Shamen. Move Any Mountain.

Today's selections! We are back to the 80's.

Oingo Boingo - Stay from 1985.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OlOPHPj4vc0

Depeche Mode - Leave in Silence from 1982.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0cD4gTiSjxc

Grandmaster Flash with Melle Mel - White Lines (Don't Do It) From 1983.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ChjLMbXVrU

This last song I am sure the Brazilian folks know.

I was going to go with Lambada by Kaoma, but it had 87 million views on Youtube. So we'll go with the second single off the "Worldbeat" album. Dançando Lambada from 1989.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NiEw71nlMLg

xen, gud stuff, please keep it up!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=axrqVfuGHh0

From the AWESOME movie "The Social Network" trailer...

My Sugar Walls - good wholesome lyrics.

1995 Hans Zimmer - Crimson Tide Theme (Roll Tide)

Today's selections:

The Cure - Fascination Street 1989

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ycl_ayPHU0

The Smiths - There is a Light That Never Goes Out

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=INgXzChwipY

I guess this song was recently (two years ago) featured in a movie starring the kid from Third Rock From the Sun.

I would imagine that is why it has 8 million Youtube views. I remember it from the early 90's, but I am calling the year as 1986 since it was The Smiths 1986 album The Queen is Dead.

re: Crimson Tide, tarantino was a consultant to "jazz up" the script?

bad romance has 150 million views?

Yeah. I guess Tarantino was uncredited with certain dialogue in the film. If I had to guess, the Lipizzaner debate between Hackman and Washington towards the climax was written by Tarantino. That scene has his style all over it.
