What!?!?!

I know the story behind it but I was not aware of what the actual name on the album was. Thanks Mr. Smarty Pants

Oh, nothin. That'* what usually happens to the nerds around here, too.


I'm gettin sick of getting slapped...

This site is too cool to have any nerds. We have intelligent, enthusiastic members here. And don't forget Mr. Smarty Pants too. TrueWildman you need to use some more of those big $5 college words like you were using yesterday. Whatever you said impressed the heck out of me.

Shhhhh!!! People are gonna think I was flirting with ya!!

Okay, just to prove what a weirdo I am, here'* my list. Don't be scared if you don't recognize some of the names

-KYLE'* MOST FABULOUS AND AWESOME LIST! YEA!-
Mozart > Requiem, especially Dies Irae
Mozart > Turkish March
Mozart > 4th Symphony
Mozart > 7th Symphony
Pachelbel > Canon in D Major
Wagner > Ride of the Valkyries
Henri Mancini > Nadia'* Theme (God, I hope none of you know where that'* from...)
Henri Mancini > Pink Panther Theme (This is my cell phone ringtone )
Beethoven > 9th Symphony
Beethoven > Fur Elise
Beethoven > Moonlight Sonata
Grieg > In the Hall of the Mountain King
I have more instrumental, but it'* newer, so, per the topic, I'll spare you guys

In all honesty, this is some pretty good stuff. Some'* pretty sappy, because I'm a big panzy, but some of it is pretty rousing, I'd suggest at least a 30-second preview listen on each song Except for Requiem, it starts out kind of slow-just listen to the Dies Irae part best part in my opinion, although the whole thing is good, a great 10-minute work =) In closing, I appreciate classical music because I don't have to concentrate on what they're saying, because they aren't saying anything! Even the rousing stuff is great to unwind to after a long day of listening to people yammer on =)

Anyway, we move on!

More traditional oldies now...
Louis Armstrong > A Kiss to Build a Dream On
Ink Spots > Maybe...
-These first two I became hooked two when playing Fallout 1 & 2. They're played during the intro sequences, Maybe for the first, A Kiss for the second. Great computer games, and cheap as hell, worth a buy for sure Hell, you even get to drive a car in the second one, too!
...
Okay, okay, moving on...

I'll save you all the pain of reading my list from the folder I titled "Newer Songs", which is Kyle for 80'* music =)

I can't help but feel the admins are going to go ape on me for this post... oh well Enjoy!

KrazyKyle you have quite an eclectic taste in music. I know some of the classical stuff but not all. I like most of your choices for oldies.

Agreed. Nice classical selection. I have the 8 CD set of the Complete Chopin collection as my most prized possession of my entire classical collection.

And nice oldies selection, too.

Thanks And let'* just say I knew a friend for while who got me in to classical music. He originally told me to download Dies Irae, and I've loved it ever since He was certainly an odd individual, as he was raised by Catholic priests and could speak Latin fluently! He told me the song was basically "God is angry! God is furious! God will smite you!" Still sounds good And thanks for commenting on the selection, it took me about 30-40 minutes to write that whole thing up (nothing better to do, except sleep...), so I was hoping someone would say something about it! Eclectic, I like that word :P

Is there a way I can link music or sound files onto the forum? I know we have a video forum, but I have some great fake commercials and crap. Delta Airlines Ebonics commercial, anyone ?
