Yamanashi 3,839 Posted July 28, 2021 [Did this get posted? Can't find it.] Electric Shamisen available for ~$500 - $1000 on internet. All-female band with (I think) electric shamisen. I like it because it's a cover of "What is Hip" by one of my favorite groups, Tower of Power. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oops, so many posts in this thread, I forgot they were already mentioned. My only consolation is that this version is a different one from the page 2. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fujisan 533 Posted August 3, 2021 Lets have a change of pace. What the worst song you have everv heard ? My vote is a song that was posted on the this thread as a favorite.(each to his own ) The song was chop suey by System of the down. A special mention goes to 'take my breath away’ from the film Top gun. I hated it so mucn I used to walk out of shops if they had it on the tanoy... Take your breath away? My pleasure,anything to stop you singing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Athenayama 1,036 Posted August 3, 2021 WHAAAAT?! "Chop Suey" is just great ! More seriously, the "worst" depends on each one's taste. So as I don't wish to hurt anybody's feelings I won't mention any. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yorikiried by fate 2,027 Posted August 3, 2021 Nice thread. Hello, I'm a first time caller. I haven't been into German language music for a long time until recently. Because I started to share a Tidal account with some friends who were "off" music for years because of having kids, I suddenly became exposed to their manic suggestions and crazy finds. So two bands I totally love having found through this are Brett (check out the album Wutkitsch) and especially Erregung Öffentlicher Erregung. On the Finnish side of things I'm happy to have heard Mopo (Mopocalypse, with the track Tökö being a miracle). This stuff is somewhere on YT, I guess, but I'm currently stuck with pre-historic internet, so that is that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes you are right of cause but have you ever known me to care about hurting peoples feelings I do wonder why people dont love the same songs as me occasionly. How can anyone not love five finger death punch ’wash it all away?‘ Edited August 3, 2021 by Fujisan 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kotoroiwa 65 Posted December 21, 2021 If you want to play music, but have no songs of your own, play others'. You might ask the original performers to visit you, too. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kotoroiwa 65 Posted January 5, 2022 That three teenage girls play hard rock together isn't that unusual, I would assume. Their being Mexicans might strike me as unusual, but I admit I have no idea why I should feel that way. Maybe it's a local fad. Their being sisters is thoroughly odd. Oh yes, there's a honbasho. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yamanashi 3,839 Posted January 6, 2022 I don't know why I like this song, except it's catchy and always lifts my spirits. It's Japanese, so it's abroad to me. (Listen with headphones, or you'll miss the bass line.) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
