Favorite Music Videos

i should have known better but i did hit play and for a moment i even thought “oh what a nice piano intro” and then it felt like someone shoved a fork in my ear!

lol reminds me of a girlfriend that felt that exact kind of pain whenever she heard this song :wink:

rip meatloaf

What a Dramaqueen. She (and her daughter) were murdered. Everything she had was taken from her.

Wait, let me get this straight. I think she overdosed, you think she was murdered, and I’m a drama queen?

I’m amazed he made it to 74. He was trailer trash but I liked him.

That’s right, Qweenie! Who actually thinks she accidentally addicted herself to crack cocaine when she was surrounded by people who could have protected her from that kind of destruction.
I, being the conspiracy theorist that I am, believe she was gradually and deliberately given harder more addicting drugs to condition her thoughts and bend her will to the music industry agenda.

what’s up with that?
the bbc also featured bat out of hell
paradise by the dashboard light was iconic

I couldn’t take it any longer
Lord I was crazed
And when the feeling came upon me
Like a tidal wave
I started swearing to my god and on my mother’s grave
That I would love you to the end of time
I swore that I would love you to the end of time!
So now I’m praying for the end of time
To hurry up and arrive
'Cause if I gotta spend another minute with you
I don’t think that I can really survive
I’ll never break my promise or forget my vow
But God only knows what I can do right now
I’m praying for the end of time
It’s all that I can do
Praying for the end of time,
So I can end my time with you!

Lol. I thought the same thing and literally LOL’d. Hahaha.

cher, madonna, thingingaboutit
frank sinatra, meat loaf
don’t matter what i think
don’t matter if they care
some people have one-word names
some people…

A few days earlier, I had a similar experience at a local diner, where the entire staff was under 30 but every song was more than 40 years old. I asked my server: “Why are you playing this old music?” She looked at me in surprise before answering: “Oh, I like these songs.”

Is Old Music Killing New Music?

Old songs now represent 70 percent of the U.S. music market. Even worse: The new-music market is actually shrinking.

I don’t think it’s shrinking. Where did you get that number? I think musicians are trying to transition away from record labels, who, btw, are leaving musicians with as little as 8% of royalties, to take ownership of their own music. Can you blame them for that?

Record labels operate the same way as the movie industry. They weigh musicians down with certain styles and then make high demands for a stellar performance with intimidating threats of being cut from the label. I’m sure musicians dislike being controlled like that by labels who are driven by numbers and profits that cut musicians royalties to a fraction of what it should be.
Musicians are turning to digital streaming to transition at least part of the 92% in royalties they lose every day back into their pocket with independent companies like Ditto.
Changing from product-based to a service-based company may sound like a challenge for record labels but they do still offer an impressive array of connections in radio, marketing, publishing and distribution, if a person is willing to pay for it. It’s not like record labels really lose. They are left with developing artists in a way that benefits the musician and not the label but labels no longer experience a high percentage of royalties from CD’s.
I do think as long as their are beautiful voices, there will be good music. Have you ever heard me sing, I’m a Little Teapot? Have you ever heard Dan laugh?
I’m a Littlol Teapohahahat. :musical_score:

i don’t care what you think
why would i make that up?

I don’t care what you make up. What do you think?
