Last albums on earth

   Discussion: Last albums on earth
Samantha · 20 years, 4 months ago

Ok.. i'm figuring on maybe a few replies here.. If there were 5 albums you could listen to before you died,and then be buried with them, what would they be and why? and which 5 artists do you think they play in hell and why?

mine would probably be as follows:

The last I'd love to listen to:

1.Jeff Buckley - Grace *because this is the absolute,utmost,completely awesome album on the face of the planet. Buy it. now. even though he's been dead since 97*

2.Sean Altman - Alt.Mania *You cant go wrong with Sean Altman, and Seandemonium was good too.. but this has songs about using yellow pencils in spanish, and actually, in a scary thought, features vocals from dearest Jian.*

3.Adam Pascal - Model Prisoner *This man just has.. "the voice".. *

4.Rufus Wainwright - any of the albums he's put out. *two words. "Instant Pleasure"

5.Donovan - anything by HIM too - C'mon.. They called him "Mellow Yellow". how could you go wrong??

What are the radio's playing in hell today?

1. Creed

2.NSYNC

3.Josh Groban

4.The Soundtrack to Moulin Rouge

5.Madonna/Any of the well known teen pop princesses.

Rachel Marie aka RAI Back · 20 years, 4 months ago
I'd love to listen to...

1 & 2. Eden White -- This is the Way and Better This Time I love them even more now that she's dissapeared off the face of the earth... come back Eden!
3. Moxy Fr�vous -- Wood I'm sorry, I'm not a suck up... but this is one of my favourite albums ever, and one of two Fr�vous I own (my mom technically owns all the others except Live Noise). I wouldn't want to be buried with my *mom's* albums...
4. David Matheson's Self Titled CD... Dude, again, not sucking up, I just happen to love it.
5. Indigo Girls -- Retrospective It has all their bests on it, including Watershed, which I LOVE LOVE LOVE so... there.

Playing in Hell

1. Most Punk Music
2. The Soundtrack to Grease
3. Dave Matthews (Band)
4. Yanni/Kenny G (I'm convinced they're the same person)
5. Music that you hear when you're put on hold.

Why is saying you like Wood make you a suck up?
Joe Navratil Back · 20 years, 4 months ago
Well, 'cause we found out last week that Josh gave the Lads accounts here, right?

(I tah lih dih cauh mah taunh'th thuck tho fihmly ih mah theek)
nate... Back · 20 years, 4 months ago
Well, because it's obviously the best album... therefore saying you like it the best means you're just trying to be cool.

:D

A girl named Becca Back · 20 years, 4 months ago
Because Wood isn't actually anyone's favorite album. No one really likes it, but somewhere along the line it was decided that it's their "best album" so it's all cool to like it. And stuff.

O:)

Bargainville 4evah!
nate... Back · 20 years, 4 months ago
ooooookay fishgirl.

*pat pat*

;)
100% dainty! Back · 20 years, 4 months ago

Wood you could you in a car?� Like it, dont' deny who you are!� You're gonna like it, you're gonna see!� it's named after what comes from a tree!

nate... Back · 20 years, 4 months ago
heeee!

Wow... never seen someone make up their own lyrics for that bit.

Nice.
iPauley Back · 20 years, 4 months ago
agreed... impressive :-D

Nathan Back · 20 years, 4 months ago
If I knew I was going to die really soon, I think I'd be too freaked out to listen to music.
lawrence Back · 20 years, 4 months ago
last 5 I'd listen to:

The Nields - If You Lived Here You'd Be Home Now
Guster - Lost and Gone Forever
Ben Folds Five - The Unauthorized Biography of Reinhold Messner
Dave and Tracy - Drum Hat Buddha
Moxy Früvous - Wood. mainly because if I were expected to drop dead after the last track finished, Sad Today would end, I'd "die" and then Organ Grinder would start and I could say "JUST KIDDING!" and then die.

"artists" played in hell:
too many to count. plus, in your own personal hell, you get to hear all the tracks you consistently skipped on the albums you otherwise liked (that's right, people, we have an eternity of When She Talks to look forward to :)
Bruce Rose Back · 20 years, 4 months ago
Why five?� CD's are small... you could be buried with hundreds of them.� Five makes it sound like a High Fidelity list, ten would be a David Letterman list, and forty would be a Casey Kasem list.� How about an original number... like eight?
Gordondon son of Ethelred · 20 years, 4 months ago

  1. Bob Dylan - Highway 61 Revisted
  2. Beethoven's Ninth Symphony
  3. Richard Thompson - Rumor and Sigh
  4. Hedwig and the Angry Inch: Original Cast Album
  5. Rennaisance - Song for All Seasons

Ask me tomorrow and I'm sure I'd have a different list.
Gordondon son of Ethelred Back · 20 years, 4 months ago
I forgot to put in the hell play list. Lots of John Cage and shanwrong.
goovie is married! Back · 20 years, 4 months ago
ahahaha. shanwrong is the lead singer for the hosue band in hell.
Gordondon son of Ethelred Back · 20 years, 4 months ago
Not hte part of hell we are going to be in I hope.
nate... · 20 years, 4 months ago
Tom Waits - Rain Dogs
Fountains of Wayne - Welcome Interstate Managers
The Maggies - Robot Stories
Guster - L&GF
Richard Shindell - Somwhere Near Patterson

note that I don't have a peter mulvey album on there.... that's only because I couldn't pick one. Now, if I could have a one cd mix of my favorite songs of his, it would replace.... probably shindell.


As far as hell goes:

The Nields, Dave Matthews, and Brittany Spears figure in strongly.
Samantha Back · 20 years, 4 months ago
I'm sorry.. i cant stand fountains of wayne.� Anyone who could put out a song like "Stacy's Mom" is completely fruity in my book... doesnt work for me.
nate... Back · 20 years, 4 months ago
well, I'm sure the same could be said by me about one of your favorite bands/artists (and likely has been)... so... no need for apologies.
:)

(edit) besides... most bands have their goofy silly songs... just look at "King of Spain". hehe
Samantha Back · 20 years, 4 months ago
I'm not mackin on your band.. I just cant stand that song... absolutely hate it.� I'm sure some of their other stuff might be ok, but god knows I hate that song.��� p.s. which of my bands dont you like? Sure, Sean can be ridiculous.. yes.. and Donovan... oh Donovan... what a freak...but..ok..� ^_^;;;
iPauley Back · 20 years, 4 months ago

Sam...� yer silly. :-P

(Yes, I know I haven't posted any albums yet, I haven't got that far yet. :-P)

-- Pauley

Nick Collins · 20 years, 4 months ago
I'd listen to
Paco De Lucia: Cositas Buenas
Guitar Trio: Friday Night in San Francisco
Tom Waits: Rain Dogs
Barachois: Encore
Sergio and Odair Assad: Play Rameau Scarlatti Couperin Bach

of course, my tastes change at an alarming rate but at this point and time, yeah, now, on to the hellish

Hell's Music
anything under these categories
Bubblegum Pop (Britney, Christina, Christina etc.)
Hardcore (Korn, Limp Bizkit, Goatwhore etc.)
Glitter Punk: (Blink 182, Sum 41, etc.)
Hip-Hop Soul: (the blending of hip-hop to soul in my opinion ruins a perfectly good form of music)
Any rap made after 1990
I can see the bunny Back · 20 years, 4 months ago
The Supers - Spklanng!
Stephen Fearing - So Many Miles: Live
Ron Sexsmith - Ron Sexsmith
David Matheson - David Matheson
Danny Michel - Fibsville

Five cds is really pushing it though - and liable to change at the drop of a hat. :)

As for the music in hell - I'm sure that Three Days Grace and Mary Simon are going to torment people for eternity. 'Course, *I'll* be in limbo with Carey. Hee!
Nick Collins Back · 20 years, 4 months ago
Actually, I might switch the Assads Play Rameau Scarlatti Couperin Bach with Bob Dylan's Rolling Thunder Revue Bootleg Series Vol. 5 Disc 2
soul groove feline · 20 years, 4 months ago
the last i'd listen to:
Dave Carter and Tracy Grammer- Tanglewood Tree *and* When I Go (i need both. it's way too hard to choose.)
Girlyman- Remember Who I Am
Moxy Fruvous- You Will Go To The Moon (it's gradually become my favourite fru-album, and i'd have to hear "Sahara" and "Love Set Fire" before i left)
Jeffrey Foucault- Miles From The Lightning (it's such a mindfuckingly amazing album. and my current favourite.)

in hell:
Avril Lavigne
all the "american idols" thus far
50 Cent
Whitney Houston (unless it's a parody sung by Eric Schwartz)
Mandy Moore
hkath · 20 years, 4 months ago
Heaven:

Lauryn Hill - The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill
Elvis Costello - Blood and Chocolate
Blossom Dearie - Once Upon a Summertime
Dan Bern - Smartie Mine (it was going to be Fleeting Days but I realized that a) I can't live without Chelsea Hotel and b) SM has more songs)
Moxy Fruvous - Bargainville (although I'll trade that one for just about any live show recording)

I don't know about hell... I tend not to listen to artists I don't like. Yaknow? Although Celine Dion would probably be played there nonstop.
nate... Back · 20 years, 4 months ago
ooooo.... blood and chocolate... that was one that came VERY close for me.

*nods*

goovie is married! Back · 20 years, 4 months ago
i love you for including blossom dearie. she kicks arse.
Talcott · 20 years, 4 months ago
Simon and Garfunkel - "Parsley, Sage, Rosemary, and Tyme"
Stephen Fearing - "Industrial Lullaby"
XTC - "Apple Venus Vol. 1"
Dan Bern - "New American Language"
Fountains of Wayne - "Welcome Interstate Managers"

Wood would be there if I could have a sixth slot, but I agree with Kath, I'd trade out one of these for a good live fr�show in an instant.

In Hell, there is only one song. It's catchy, and plays constantly. You can't escape it. You can't turn it off. It gets stuck in your head and cycles around just slightly off-track of the speakers.
Andrea Krause · 20 years, 4 months ago

Very difficult.

1. Beatles - Rubber Soul (Hard hard choice to make if I could only hear one Beatles album. I could easily have all 5 be Beatles but I'd end up missing my other choices dearly.)

2. XTC - Nonsuch (I'm tempted to pick Apple Venus but Nonsuch means so much to me and it's so gorgeous.)

3. Peter Mulvey - Deep Blue (I have to hear Birgit one more time before I die.)

4. Pink Floyd - Momentary Lapse of Reason or Dark Side of the Moon (I don't listen to Floyd often enough but I feel such emotion in my chest when I do that I just couldn't die without revisiting it.)

5. Poe - Haunted (Just...one of the most moving and well done albums I know. I couldn't leave the world without listening. Just couldn't.)

Music in hell? Um...anything I don't like. :)

Adam Hartfield · 20 years, 4 months ago
Last Listens:

1. Patsy Cline, Ultimate Collection.
2. The Nields, Play
3. Handel, Messiah
4. Wagner, Die Walk�re Act III (the one starting with The Ride of The Valkyries, and ending with the Magic Fire Music)
5. Billie Holiday, Lady In Satin.

Avoid in eternal damnation:

1. Any album by The Eagles or members thereof.
2. Any spoken word or comedy albums. If it's not music, I don't want it.
3. "Peter and the Wolf" as performed by Sting and Vanessa Redgrave.
4. Any Christopher Cross album.
5. Any Kenny Loggins album.
betsy =) · 20 years, 4 months ago
1. mike errico-- pictures of the big vacation
2. david gray-- white ladder
3. guster-- lost and gone forever
4. barenaked ladies-- gordon
5. the nields-- play

all of these are college-days inspired. i'm wondering when that will end and when i will find something in ten years i can call "mid-twenties" inspired.

in hell... new stevie nicks stuff. to me, her voice sounds old and gravelly and icky. go back to the fajita roundup. also in hell, other things i can't think of at the moment.
Doktor Pepski, kommie · 20 years, 4 months ago

1. The Return of The King soundtrack
2. U2 All that you can't leave behind
3. Bruce Springsteen- the Rising
4. REM-Automatic For the people
5. The Beatles The White Album

the radio in hell plays:
1. Limp Bizkit, take your pick any pick.
2. gangsta rap...it's really all the same song nowadays don't ya know.
3. William Shatner' the Transformed Man (I say that with pure affection for the album)
4. The britneys, the nsyncs, the backstreets,... ie, modern pop.
5. Official cast broadway albums.
Dances with Llamas · 20 years, 4 months ago
Last Five->
1. U2 - Achtung Baby(I could have picked at least three U2 albums, but I'll go for a more varied approach)
2. Radiohead - The Bends
3. Weezer - The Blue One
4. Moxy Fruvous - Wood (the one mellow spot in what would be one rocking death!)
5. Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon

What plays in hell?
I picture a lounge where Bill Shatner sings "Convoy" 24-7, kinda like the commercial.
nate... Back · 20 years, 4 months ago
