Well today Reg has decided I have no business in “cars”

Probably some weird hang up over power and machines this week. Tomorrow it will probably be a silly word war I’m not allowed to participate in. It’s probably the narcissism in me making him meltdown paranoid. Don’t worry. It will not ever affect your ability to do or say anything. I’m fair game because Reg makes the rules. You follow.

Still blocked. Fal ALALALALLLaaaaa. I know you are Can’t tell but I am a great singer, in here. :smoking::smoking:cough*

This lunacy is getting old.

So is your childish control game.

Use your computer. Your phone is the problem. Tired of hearing you whine about this issue when you know the answer to it.

Or figure out why your phone isn’t letting you in. Nobody else has ever complained they’re not allowed into individual topics. I almost never ban or restrict anyone. I did ban a couple of spammers a few months ago but I honestly don’t remember any other cases in the last year or two.

It’s now 1:40 and I’m not sober. The woman is sleeping. We cracked a bottle of Dom Perignon (vintage 2000) at midnight. I had been saving it for a special occasion and the fact that we’re still together after the year we had qualifies as such an occasion. It was still drinkable 20 years later but it put her right out. I’m now listening to things that inspire me. For all its flaws, this is an amazingly beautiful world and this is an incredible time to be alive.

Edit: It is now 3:02 and I am still listening to random music from my past. I finished the expensive bottle and opened a cheap one. I haven’t been this plastered for years but I’m still spelling words correctly and can tell a choir with game from one with none. I did well to limit my flood to one post that is easily ignored. lol.

First some African choir. I don’t know who they are but it’s sung by blacks and whites together and nobody is allowing talk about cultural appropriation or other such nonsense to ruin it. Indeed, it is made more beautiful by having both races join together to perform this gorgeous piece.

Scots dancing with reckless abandon. Especially the skinny chick in pink.

Pachelbel’s impossibly beautiful Canon performed by the impossibly perfect London Symphony Orchestra.

Bone Thugs n Harmony with Phil Collins doing a modernized (and greatly improved) version of one of Collins’ most famous songs.

Some Russian girls singing a folk song. Russians are not our enemy. Putin is an asshole, yes, but the Russian people are decent, proud and accomplished and they deserve better than to be treated like the pariahs they’re being portrayed as in western media.

The Opera Babes doing one of the most beautiful versions of the Ode ever recorded.

Angelo Branduardi - La Tempesta

A Korean hip hop version of Pachelbel’s famous Canon.

Chilean bimbo music. I still love it 15 years later.

Another Ode, this time by Andre Rieu who I will forgive for being Dutch. The two sopranos leave absolutely nothing on the table. It’s gorgeous to see.

Rednex - Cotton Eyed Joe. Total trailer trash music. I love it.

Michael Jackson’s Man in the Mirror by some choir calling itself Joyful Noise.

Anoushka Shankar. Sometimes I think she’s more brilliant than her father.

The best version of Gladiator ever recorded, by some Lithuanians led by a guy in a wheelchair.

Diane Tell, an incredibly sexy French Canadian playing the Olympia in Paris. Our generation was just simply cooler than this generation.

Louise Tucker’s take on Beethoven’s Adagio Cantabile Piano Sonata #8

The Lord’s Prayer in Swahili sung by a bunch of Tanzanian kids.

Handel’s Messiah by the London Symphony Orchestra. The human race gets no better than this.

Moldovan homosexuals dancing on an airplane.

The best version of Wana Baraka I’ve ever heard, by Maestro Cícero Alves.

My song to live by.

My wife asked me who my favorite band of all time was. I was amazed neither of us knew it about the other. She said she’s never heard me play any Led Zeppelin, so she was quite surprised. I said, it’s all in my brain. Really haven’t listened to them much the last 10 years.

Is your wifes favorite also Led Zeppelin?

No. I think she said the Dixie chicks. We have little in common when it comes to music. In 15 years, I probably won’t have anyone to talk to about music. We saw the adam ezra group on nye. We both like them. We both like michael franti, zz ward and delta rae. That’s about it for music lol. It’s ok though.

I like Led Zeppelin. I’m not sure that’s one of his best songs but it’s worthy of a second listen.

It’s cool. Angie and I both came of age with the same music. My son introduces me to his music. I usually find it difficult to listen to new music.

It’s nice to listen to non Christmas music. Finally out of my head lol.

She listens to country which is generally awful and we disagree on exactly what country is. She does not consider hayes carll country but at some point Taylor swift was somehow considered country. So we can almost listen to anything together except almost all country, portishead, modest mouse, massive attack. We get to veto 3 things in the car but I took it up a notch and vetoed and entire genre.

Lol! I like your veto system. I like the old country. The real country music.

I think I do too. Ironic that she listens to mostly country but I like the original.

I guess a lot of people discovered jamiroquai after napoleon dynamite came out and thought this was sung by a black woman. I never thought of that since I knew them.

This is a guy singing. I got that wrong initially.
