Edit: Just checked this in Wiki -- Finntroll is a Finnish group that sings in Swedish (although I cannot hear a single word of what they are saying).
I like a few songs by Mumiy Troll. They are my friends favorite band, she gave me all their discography on MP3 on my last trip to St. Petersberg. I still went to their concert in San Fransisco for fun, it was cool. Russians there were going crazy for this band, lol.

Okay, I don't know how it was that I missed this song?
Sigur Ros - Hoppípolla from 2005.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_EyI4p0yjDQ
The song is in Icelandic of all things, but the video, puts a smile on your face! :D
Here are the lyrics that I found in English:
Smiling
Spinning round and round
Holding hands
The whole world a blur
But you are standing
Soaked
Completely drenched
No rubber boots
Running inside us
Want to erupt from a shell
The Wind
An outdoor smell of your hair
I breathe as hard as I can
with my nose
Jump into puddles
With no boots on
Completely drenched(Soaked)
With no boots on
And I get a nosebleed
But I always stand up
(Hopelandish)
And I get a nosebleed
But I always stand up
(Hopelandish)

Re: Music: Cutting Edge and What You Are Listening To?
My tastes in music are the exact opposite of "cutting edge" -- most of the songs I like are from before 1990, and many are much older than I am (I was born in 1971).
From the soundtrack of De-Lovely, the 2003 Cole Porter "bio-pic" with Kevin Kline as Cole and Ashley Judd as his wife Linda: "Let's Do It, Let's Fall in Love" -- sung in the movie by Alanis Morrisette. ("Bio-pic", meaning "a biographical film", is commonly used for writing headlines, to save space -- no one says it in speech.)
The YouTube video uses clips from the 1960s BBC spy series The Avengers, starring Patrick Macnee as secret agent John Steed, and the redheaded beauty Diana Rigg as Mrs. Emma Peel.
And I've added comments to the lyrics with translations and/or explanations for some of the terms, especially the names of the different fishes and insects -- I hope these will be helpful for English learners AND Russian learners.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rzg1PO_WKMU
Let's Do It, Let's Fall in Love
But that's why birds do it, (NB: The pronoun "it" has been a euphemism for половой акт at least since the 1920s...)
Bees do it,
Even educated fleas do it,
Let's do it, let's fall in love. (NB: ...but here Mr. Porter clarifies that he's speaking of love, not the activity "на букву F"! ) :wink:
In Spain the best upper sets do it,
Lithuanians and Letts do it, (NB: Nowadays "Letts" is obscure, and we say "Latvians")
Let's do it, let's fall in love.
The Dutch in old Amsterdam do it,
Not to mention the Finns,
Folks in Siam do it,
Think of Siamese twins.
Some Argentines without means do it, (NB: "without means" = кому-н. не по карману)
People say in Boston, even beans do it, (NB: "bean" was old slang for житель Бостона)
Let's do it, let's fall in love.
Romantic sponges, they say, do it, (NВ: sea-sponge = губка)
Oysters down in Oyster Bay do it, (NВ: oyster = устрица)
Let's do it, let's fall in love.
Cold Cape Cod clams 'gainst their wish do it, (NВ: clam = мактра)
Even lazy jellyfish do it,(NВ: jellyfish = медуза)
Let's do it, let's fall in love.
Electric eels, I might add, do it, (NВ: eel = угорь)
Though it shocks 'em, I know,
Why ask if shad do it, (NВ: shad = речная сельдь)
"Waiter, bring me shad roe!"
In shallow shoals English soles do it, (NB: this fish is морской язык in Russian, and "sole" literally means подошва обуви)
Goldfish in the privacy of bowls do it,
Let's do it, let's fall in love.
The dragonflies in the reeds do it (NВ: dragonfly = стрекоза)
Sentimental centipedes do it, (NВ: centipede = сороканожка)
Let's do it, let's fall in love.
Mosquitoes, heaven forbid, do it, (NВ: mosquito = комар)
So does every katydid do it, (NB: "katydid" is the onomatopoeic name for a зеленый, листообразныый кузнечик)
Let's do it, let's fall in love.
The most refined ladybugs do it, (NВ: ladybug = божья коровка, the English name is from "Our Lady's bug", Богоматерская букашка)
When a gentleman calls,
Moths in your rugs do it,
What's the use of moth balls? (NB: double-entendre -- нафталиновые шарики от молей, and "яички" у самца-моли!) :"":
Locusts in trees do it, (NВ: locust = саранча)
Bees do it,
Even over-educated fleas do it,
Let's do it, let's fall in love!

Throbert! I LOVED The Avengers! I mentioned that back on the BIG Movie thread about a year ago I think. And Diana Rigg OMG, YES! Not that other one who shall remain nameless! What a great show that was!! :good: Thanks for the song, I added it to the playlist.

Re: Music: Cutting Edge and What You Are Listening To?
I've heard about this song in the news, so I've found it and listend to it. And I like it.
Land Down Under
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=As6s4Vt_3uw
Traveling in a fried-out combie
On a hippie trail, head full of zombie
I met a strange lady, she made me nervous
She took me in and gave me breakfast
And she said,
"Do you come from a land down under?
Where women glow and men plunder?
Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?
You better run, you better take cover."
Buying bread from a man in Brussels
He was six-foot-four and full of muscles
I said, "Do you speak-a my language?"
He just smiled and gave me a vegemite sandwich
And he said,
"I come from a land down under
Where beer does flow and men chunder
Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?
You better run, you better take cover."
Lyin' in a den in Bombay
With a slack jaw, and not much to say
I said to the man, "Are you trying to tempt me
Because I come from the land of plenty?"
And he said,
"Do you come from a land down under?
Where women glow and men plunder?
Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?
You better run, you better take cover."
Living in a land down under
Where women glow and men plunder
Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?
You better run, you better take cover!
Living in a land down under
Where women glow and men plunder
Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?
You better run, you better take cover!
It was in the news because, apparently, some parts of it were stolen from this children's song:

E-learner! I soooo remember this song and the group, Men at Work! Another one of their songs I liked was Who Can It Be Now? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MOuEYSJCFqE
I already posted a newer version of a song on this thread by one of the guys from this band, Colin Hay, Overkill. I guess I should have tied him back to this old band when I did that!!
Now, about the song Down Under and the whole copyright thing. I actually had not heard about it and you are very much on top of this story. :good: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/0..._n_449072.html
It seems it is one section of the old children's song in particular and that is NOT in that youtube clip:
Quote:
"I have come to the view that the flute riff in "Down Under" ... infringes on the copyright of Kookaburra because it replicates in material form a substantial part of Ms. Sinclair's 1935 work," Federal Court Justice Peter Jacobson said.
I tried to look for a clip of that portion and could not find one. I do indeed know the Kookaburra song, as pretty much every girl here in the US grows up singing it. I just have never heard this "flute section" before.
It is also intereseting to note that it is not Mrs. Sinclair who sued, but the publishing company who now owns the rights to her song as she passed away in 1988. I wonder why they waited until last year to file suit? GREED??? :evil:
***EDIT UPDATE***
I found the Scrubs clip that the version of Overkill I posted is from. Too Funny... take a look! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZ45xrtNnzk
Here is the first verison from 1983 by the full "Men at Work" band http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lcu7OCIqlqE

Re: Music: Cutting Edge and What You Are Listening To?
It has always been one of the songs I wanted to sing along but never knew the words, and figuring out lyrics can sometimes be pretty hard. I bet even native speakers can’t fully understand what the song is about, except Australians maybe.
About the stealing business, I definitely hear that flute riff coincides with the
Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree

lines. Three seconds. But does that justify Quote:
up to 60 percent of the royalties "Down Under" earned since its release -- an amount that could total millions
going to the freaking copyright owner?
Down under must be in mourning.

Speaking of songs that only Australians can understand:
Waltzing Matilda, as performed by the folk group The Seekers at the 1994 Australian football finals. It's filled with Australianisms that are mysterious to us English speakers in the Northern hemisphere!(Some of the words simply don't exist in North America and the UK; others -- like "waltz" and "squatter" -- are common English words that have special slang meanings in Australia.)
Quote:
Lyrics:
Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong
Under the shade of a coolibah tree,
And he sang as he watched and waited 'til his billy boiled
"You'll come a-waltzing Matilda, with me"
Refrain:
Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda
"You'll come a-waltzing Matilda, with me"
And he sang as he watched and waited 'til his billy boiled,
"You'll come a-waltzing Matilda, with me".
Down came a jumbuck to drink at that billabong,
Up jumped the swagman and grabbed him with glee,
And he sang as he shoved that jumbuck in his tucker bag,
"You'll come a-waltzing Matilda, with me".
(refrain)
Up rode the squatter, mounted on his thoroughbred,
Down came the troopers, one, two, three,
"Where's that jolly jumbuck you've got in your tucker bag?"
"You'll come a-waltzing Matilda, with me".
(refrain)
Up jumped the swagman and sprang into the billabong,
"You'll never take me alive", said he,
And his ghost may be heard as you pass by that billabong,
"You'll come a-waltzing Matilda, with me".
(refrain)

Re: Music: Cutting Edge and What You Are Listening To?
For some reason this song is getting a lot of airplay again... from 2006 "The Black Parade", by My Chemical Romance
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kDWgsQhbaqU
Lyrics:
When I was a young boy,
My father took me into the city
To see a marching band.
He said, "Son when you grow up,
would you be the savior of the broken,
the beaten and the damned?"
He said "Will you defeat them,
your demons, and all the non-believers,
the plans that they have made?"
"Because one day I'll leave you,
A phantom to lead you in the summer,
To join The Black Parade."
When I was a young boy,
My father took me into the city
To see a marching band.
He said, "Son when you grow up,
would you be the savior of the broken,
the beaten and the damned?"
Sometimes I get the feeling she's watching over me.
And other times I feel like I should go.
And through it all, the rise and fall, the bodies in the streets.
And when you're gone we want you all to know.
We'll carry on,
We'll carry on
And though you're dead and gone believe me
Your memory will carry on
We'll carry on
And in my heart I can't contain it
The anthem won't explain it.
A world that sends you reeling from decimated dreams
Your misery and hate will kill us all.
So paint it black and take it back
Let's shout it loud and clear
Defiant to the end we hear the call
To carry on
We'll carry on
And though you're dead and gone believe me
Your memory will carry on
We'll carry on
And though you're broken and defeated
Your weary widow marches
On and on we carry through the fears
Ooh oh ohhhh
Disappointed faces of your peers
Ooh oh ohhhh
Take a look at me cause I could not care at all
Do or die, you'll never make me
Because the world will never take my heart
Go and try, you'll never break me
We want it all, we wanna play this part
I won't explain or say I'm sorry
I'm unashamed, I'm gonna show my scar
Give a cheer for all the broken
Listen here, because it's who we are
I'm just a man, I'm not a hero
Just a boy, who had to sing this song
I'm just a man, I'm not a hero
I! don't! care!
We'll carry on
We'll carry on
And though you're dead and gone believe me
Your memory will carry on
We'll carry on
And though you're broken and defeated
Your weary widow marches on
Do or die, you'll never make me
Because the world will never take my heart
Go and try, you'll never break me
We want it all, we wanna play this part (We'll carry on)
Do or die, you'll never make me (We'll carry on)
Because the world will never take my heart (We'll carry on)
Go and try, you'll never break me (We'll carry)
We want it all, we wanna play this part (We'll carry on)

Re: Music: Cutting Edge and What You Are Listening To?
This 1989 Oscar and a Golden Globe winning song is from one of my favorite movies, Working Girl and the song is Let the River Run by Carly Simon. I could re-watch Working Girl almost any day and this version of the song is the one I like the most.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cv-0mmVnxPA
Let the River Run
Lyrics by: Carly Simon
Music by: Carly Simon
We're coming to the edge
Running on the water
Coming through the fog
Your sons and daughters
Let the river run
Let all the dreamers
Wake the nation
Come, the New Jerusalem
Silver cities rise
The morning lights
The streets that lead them
And sirens call them on with a song
It's asking for the taking
Trembling, shaking
Oh, my heart is aching
We're coming to the edge
Running on the water
Coming through the fog
Your sons and daughters
We the great and small stand on a star
And blaze a trail of desire
Through the darkling dawn
It's asking for the taking
Come run with me now
The sky is the color of blue
You've never even seen
In the eyes of your lover
Oh, my heart is aching
We're coming to the edge
Running on the water
Coming through the fog
Your sons and daughters
It's asking for the taking
Trembling, shaking
Oh, my heart is aching
We're coming to the edge
Running on the water
Coming through the fog
Your sons and daughters
Let the river run
Let all the dreamers
Wake the nation
Come, the New Jerusalem

Re: Music: Cutting Edge and What You Are Listening To?
Great film! I couldn’t help but see it after your passionate introduction. As usual no one has ever heard about it in the video stores, nothing but junk with guns, monsters and stupid car chases there. So I found it on MEGAVIDEO in a not so great resolution, but liked it, regardless. The song too. Don’t remember seeing Melanie Griffith anywhere before, but here she was nice, I mean beautiful. :) I dare not look for what she is like now, for time can make fools of us all. :sad:

Re: Music: Cutting Edge and What You Are Listening To?
So, I am just really liking some of the mashups out there.
Here is one..
It is the Doobie Brothers "Long Train Running" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cViggFZFlxU
And Duffy's Mercy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y7ZEVA5dy-Y
for the new song... "Duffy Train Running" mashedup by DJ Y Alias JY
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n75_5UgY1us
-
Re: Music: Cutting Edge and What You Are Listening To?
The Duffy’s song is a pure gem! The mash up is good too but it’s that Duffy girl who impresses me most.
I saw a film once, on TCM channel, the old movie, maybe from the 50s, black & white, about a band of young rock and roll musicians or what they were called then, who were striving to push forward a new trend in the music, the twist. As far as I remember one of them was Chubby Checker. Remember him? There was a song there that I very much liked, the one I remembered of right away when I first heard the Duffy’s Mercy. Although they usually rerun their movies quite often I never saw the film again. Do you by any chance know what that film might be and who the singer was whose voice was so reminiscent of the Duffy's?

Okay, I searched real quickly and I think the film might be "Don't Knock the Twist." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don't_Knock_the_Twist
Was it Linda Scott? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nNit7grB0C0
Or Dee Dee Sharp? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GCO4sRLzsGk
another one Dee Dee sang IN the movie but the clip is not FROM the movie.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mQBKpV9emKc
-
Re: Music: Cutting Edge and What You Are Listening To?
Can’t tell for sure that those songs are the ones I had in mind, but the voices are somewhat similar to the Duffy’s. There’s one mismatch though, Chubby Checker wore a white sweater and the female singer was a little bit slimmer and taller than Linda Scott.
Well, you pointed into the right direction and I’ve finally hit the spot – it was "Twist Around the Clock" and the girl was (what made me think she sounded like Duffy? Or maybe she did after all?) Vicki Spencer. I believe not many people know her, even in the USA. She’s here, at the end of the clip http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6aXDCXz5oU0 and Chubby Checker here http://www.vbox7.com/play:37edfce9?r=google, with his fancy dance and the white …silly me, shirt, not sweater. BTW he looks a lot like Mohammed Ali.

Re: Music: Cutting Edge and What You Are Listening To?
She seems sweet, but:
Haven't you got your own language in Germany?? :search:
And it's not schlager either! :unknown:
Maybe they should just change the name of the festival.
Here is the Swedish one. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vtqt7lTV-LI (we have no language of our own either, apparently... :shock: ) And very bland music taste. This one is not going to win... Even if all our neighbouring countries vote for it.. !

The video is from the local qualifying competition (it's taken very seriously, enough said... )

Re: Music: Cutting Edge and What You Are Listening To?
Well, "Schlager" isn't representative anymore for the general populace, unless you count the dead. It's a song contest, and we are sending a song. True, it's in English, but I don't mind. This year our selection process was remodeled to resemble a casting show without the embarassing bits. The shows began with ten finalists (out of thousands who had demoed), and among the cover versions sung during the show there were German songs as well, but the artists in question got voted out eventually.
Let's face it, we can do Rammstein, Kraftwerk and Xavier Naidoo, but we can't very well send any of them to the song contest. :)

Re: Music: Cutting Edge and What You Are Listening To?
Born to live (Unheilig)
I find it hard to live without you
To give all I can every day, every time
I often think about what used to be
On each beloved past day
I imagine that you're with me
And walk each of my paths by my side
I've been thinking about so much since you passed away
Because you showed me how valuable life is
Chorus
We were born to live
With the miracles of that time
To never forget oneself
In all eternity
We were born to live
For that one moment
When each of us felt
How valuable life is
It still hurts to make room for new things
With a good conscience to allow new things to happen
In this moment you are near me again
As on each so beloved past day
I have a wish to allow dreams again
Without remorse to look ahead into a future
I see meaning now that you have passed away
Because you showed me how valuable my life is
Repeat chorus
-
Re: Music: Cutting Edge and What You Are Listening To?
It's nice that Robin is around; German is definitely my favourite language after Russian. Although I wish it didn't have that silly "back of the throat" R which is hard for me.
Some music sound better in German than any other language, even though I don't understand all of what they say. I listened a lot to German music in my teens but now I am not up to date with German music at all.
After I have fully mastered Russian (yeah, right!) German is next on my list! After Russian, that will be a walk in the park (=very easy).
I really like that song! I can't believe I hadn't heard of Unheilig! They are great.
Here in the UK we live in an English speaking "bubble". All I ever hear is English music and English TV / film. You have to really make an effort to get anything else and it feels strange to me, having grown up with a little bit of all the nearby countries' cultures and benefiting from all of them.
Sorry I dissed the German song for Eurovision. I guess that you don't take it 100% seriously either, although it's good fun. In Sweden we actually call Eurovision "schlagerfestivalen (the schlager festival)". And this genre of music is well and alive in rural Sweden, LOL. Take a bit of accordion, add some synth, bass and a catchy refrain! Backwards, but fun in a way, and extremely cheezy! Finland and Norway are just the same. (Schlager = same as "schanson" in Russian.)

Re: Music: Cutting Edge and What You Are Listening To?
So, younger daughter was taken to a concert at a local university by one of her school mates about...oh... two weeks ago I guess and she had a great time. We had never heard of the band and since then she has been bugging me to get her some of their songs. I finally went to Youtube to listen to them and they are really very good!
The band is 30 Seconds to Mars and for those of you who saw the movie "Girl, Interrupted", the lead singer and main songwriter for this band, Jared Leto, played Toby in that movie.
Here is their #1 song, "Kings and Queens":
