Music From WoW – Invincible

A beautiful piece of music that might be used later in the WoW game.

The Man Who Sold The World

This is one of the most beautiful and saddest songs I’ve ever heard. I’ve had it with me for years and I can’t stop listening to it. The only thing sadder than this is Kurt Cobain and how he left this world.

(Get the higher quality version if you like it.)

Ra Ra Rasputin!

Boney M – Rasputin

Such an awesome song and video. Ah the ’70s… such a wonderful time.

Look up Boney M on Wikipedia. It should be interesting.

MC Vikram and Ludakrishna – Curry N Rice Girl

I didn’t know MC Vikram and Ludakrishna made more songs! This one is a parody of Gwen Stefani’s Hollaback Girl.

Beautiful Creatures – 1 A.M.

I heard a few seconds of this song when watching Smallville and it got stuck in my head. So I tried to use Tunatic to find out what it was but for some reason the application failed to recognise it. A few days later I realised that IMDB has the information I seek (they list the soundtracks used in every episode of every TV show) and I was able to track it down.

Try it out.

Blur – Song 2

Blur – Song 2

I got my head checked
By a jumbo jet
It wasn’t easy
But nothing is, no

When I feel heavy metal
And I’m pins and I’m needles
Well I lie and I’m easy
All of the time but I’m never sure when I need you
Pleased to meet you

I got my head done
When I was young
It’s not my problem
It’s not my problem

When I feel heavy metal
And I’m pins and I’m needles
Well I lie and I’m easy
All of the time but I’m never sure when I need you
Pleased to meet you

Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah

I started up FIFA ‘98 just to listen this song. The lyrics make no sense, I know.

Ballad of Serenity – Firefly Theme Song

I downloaded Firefly, a science fiction TV series after reading about it. I was impressed by the Western theme mixed with science fiction and what they were trying to do with the series. Unfortunately it got cancelled after the first season due to a mix of bad marketing and poor patronage.

The show has an unforgettable haunting theme song. Check it out here: ballad_of_serenity

Rammstein Völkerball (Concert)

Rammstein’s Völkerball DVD set released in 2006 is a collection of 140 minutes of concert footage shot at Nîmes, the audio of the concert and some band documentaries. I got hold of the concert footage recently (high quality, thankfully) and watched it… and it was mind blowing!

Rammstein concerts are always wild (pyrotechnics, flamethrowers) and insanely awesome with crazy sets (every concert has a unique set up) and the band members dressed up in odd costumes and Völkerball was no exception. The energy and power of the music combined with the stage presence of the band members kept me watching every frame of the entire concert, at times rewinding to see some parts once again. I was initially planning to describe the concert some more and then realised that words cannot do justice to how amazing it was.

Some screen grabs from the concert:

I have the concert video on disk. You have to see it!

Alien Ant Farm – Smooth Criminal

This is one of the funniest music videos ever. Originally performed by Michael Jackson, Alien Ant Farm have done an awesome job performing it.

There’s so much crazy stuff going on in the video that I don’t know what to laugh at!

Rammstein – Ohne Dich

If you thought metal was all about ear drum damaging sounds and people screaming like crazy you are only partially right. Though there are a lot of high energy songs many bands also make beautiful songs that even sissy pop lovers will find interesting.

I present to you one of Rammstein’s lighter songs.

This song is called Ohne Dich.
