Soundtrack from Man of LaMancha

 

Girls Just Wanna Have Fun by Cindy Lauper.

 

Drivin' to the Poorhouse, in my Limousine......Joe Ely

Roses Ain't Enough (for a Girl Like You) Jesse Dayton

 

My favorite song by Cindy Lauper was always Time After Time... i would hear and sing along, since as far back as i can remember...

 

Good taste NNO one of my all time favourite's.

 

A pirate looks at forty-jimmy buffet
something i can never have-nine inch nails
hurt-nine inch nails

 

In this dirty old part of the city
Where the sun refuse to shine
People tell me there ain't no use in tryin
...
We gotta get outta this place if it's the last thing we ever do
-- Grand Funk Railroad.

or

There's a man they call the software ranger
Every day he just keeps gettin' stranger
Gets caffene-spawned D.T.'s
Writes apps in Klingonese
Odda are he'll be out-sourced by tomorrow
Nerdy Hacker Man
Nerdy Hacker Man
He rewrites Unix kernels
But they've given him NT.

Uhm, other than that I love tunes like "Nothing to gein" from Mudvayne, "Aerials" from System of a Down, "Space Kadet" from Kyuss and a lot of other things from Lifer, American Headcharge, 40 Below Summer, Stereomud, Machine Head, Nonpoint, Meshuggah, Nothingface etc.

In my age group (at 41) I´m quite alone with my taste for music ...

 

You sure as hell are, but there's gotta be other folks out there in your age range that like those groups... System is one of my all time favorites; Nonpoint is another great band... Mudvayne and Stereomud are okay; Machine Head isn't too bad, either... i'm not sure if i've ever heard 40 Below, Mechuggah or Nothingface... Do you like Tool...? Metallica...? Apex Theory...? Sum 41...?

 

Queen: I want it all, I want it now

 

Tool is a all time classic!

Metallica? Well, for my taste a bit to mainstream-ish ...

Never heard of Apex Theory or Sum 41, but given your other favourites I will check them out. Thanx for the hint!

 

Anything by Foghat

 

Tool and the spinoff band A Perfect circle Rock!

 

I should have added more to my list, it all depends on my mood like anyone else. Here's a sample.

ZZ Top - Manic Mechanic
Butthole Surfers - Who was in room last night
Fu Manchu - Hell on Wheels
Rollins Band - Shine
Garuda - Cold Wired Sentiment
Jane's Addiction - Ocean Sized
Nirvana - the man who Sold the World.

 

"If I Had a Rocket Launcher", by that great Canadian singer, Bruce Cockburn, with that great line,

' If I had a rocket launcher, some son of a ***** would die ! '

This song comes to mind all the time when I drive in Atlanta traffic...

 

Yes, Metallica's definitely main stream, but they're good... i spent most of my life hating them; i couldn't stand to listen to them... Over time, though, i guess i fostered an appreciation... Now i really like them... Apex Theory is different; not like Metallica or Tool or Mudvayne, but still pretty cool... Sum 41 seems to be maturing with their second album; try to check out their latest release, 'Chuck', with their latest single - i can't remember the name of it, though...

As an aside, they named their latest album Chuck because they were in the Congo doing some sort of benefit and they were subject to open fire from some sort of guerillas - some dude named Chuck was there and they told him, "If you get us out of here alive, we'll name our next album after you"... Pretty cool, i think...

 

Grateful Dead - Eyes of the World.
