Is the current generation more like the youth of the 1960s or the 1980s?
Mike C asked:
Folk music (also called protest songs) appealed to politically and socially conscious young adults in the 1960s. By the end of the 1980s, the youth culture had become very passive. Is the current generation more like the youth of the 1960s or the 1980s? How is this reflected in the music you listen to? Do artists such as Rage Against the Machine reflect the political and social attitudes of today’s youth?

What was the closing music for the October 19 episode of Moonlight?
Ivallinen Roisto asked:
It’s a nice solo vocal with a folk guitar accompaniment, and the last lyrics I heard were “I love you.” I know I’ve heard it quite a bit before. Just know nothing about the artist other than her gender, and that I liked the music.
Thanks, Night Owl. How could I not recognize Mazzy Star’s trademark whispery voice?

Suggest some bands/artists to me?
Eri asked:
I’m looking for new music to listen to. Please do not suggest ANY rap/R&B, religious bands, or folk music. I will listen to country, but only if it’s good. None of that pseudo-patriotic america, america rah rah rah BS, thanks.
The bands/artists should have meaningful lyrics. Not necissarily sad (though I like a good emotional song), but somehow meaningful. The words mean the most to me.
After the lyrics, the melody and/or beat come in second place of importance.
If you’re suggesting classical-type music, or music in a foreign language, make sure it’s either very beautiful, or very climactic and exciting.
To give you an idea of what I listen to, here’s the bands/artists that make up the majority of my media player: Alkaline Trio, Azure Ray, Malice Mizer, Cursive, Leah Andreone, Motion City Soundtrack, Modest Mouse, Black Eyed Peas, Gwen Stefani and Justin Timberlake (his new CD).
Thanks!

Interested in New Music (Rock/Folk/Alt. ect)?
shannon b asked:
I’m so tired of listening to the same songs on my playlist, and I’m always looking for new bands/artists/songs. Never can have enough music. I’m a fan of just about anything, except Rap/Hip Hop (if you even consider it music) and Metal/HardCore stuff. I’d like to listen to some stuff most people haven’t heard of… I love music, and listen to everything mainstream, so try to give me something I probably wouldn’t know.
Two new bands I just love that I recently found out about are…
Civil Twilight
Vast
Got anything similar write it down?
Just as I said, try to stay away from the things I’ve probably heard of.
Thanks for the time… XD
