Hi guy's,

to contribute to this chit-chat forum

, I'd like to know what music you prefer.

I'm in for lounge, easy listening and downbeat.
Must be the age

Greetings,
Leo

I had thought of asking this question myself Leo, you got there before me!!

I like alot of music, but never jazz, heavy classics, country and western, Irish music, rap, reggae or that dreadful dance/club stuff you get deafening you from cars at this time of year.

I like pop music (no favourite groups or anything, if I like a song I buy the CD, no matter who sings it). I like some Madonna stuff, I used it to back the last couple of videos I made on holiday - "Like A Prayer" is a superb backing for VLM footage believe it or not. "American Pie" goes well with Brugge and the footage I took inside a Sabena 737 back in 2001. The ultimate video backing song for me has to be "The Boxer" by Simon and Garfunkel, I used it to back all the Sabena footage I've got on video (and more recently SNBA footage) and now whenever I hear that song, it brings back the memories of Sabena (you guys will think I am really stupid for saying all that!!)

Hi Comet,

Madonna is not bad. Her best album is "Ray of light" in my opinion.
There are a few songs that gives me "goosepimpels", like "Unfinished sympathy" from Massive Attack and others...

, I have some country music cd's, but that's more to collect than to listen too.

My favourites are classic, especially the romantics, and opera. But I don't dislike classic rock (I'm listening to Jimi Hendrix on Netscape Radio while writing this), easy listening, jazz and blues.

I like rap and things like that, but there are so many songs I like in the Prima Donna (on Radio Donna offcourse).

Madonna is good,I like hollywood (her song)

So I like so many kind of music, sometimes (when I go crazy) I like music of the 60ties!

Regards,

Rutger

Well, I actually like all kinds of musics, as long as there isn't too much techno.

You should show us your videos sometime. Do you have them on your computer

Ciao

There are several to reply to at once here!!
Andre - my Mum insists that I tell you she too likes to listen to Jimi Hendrix (personally I hate his stuff, but that's me!!)
BIVA - Yes, "Hollywood" is a good song, it did quite well in the UK charts not so long ago.
Chris - I would love to show more people my videos, but I don't have a digital camcorder, only an analogue 8mm one that needs to be connected to a VHS video for editing (I wouldn't have the first idea how to transfer to a computer, but if I did, I promise I would show them to any of you who wanted to see them). My VLM take off footage from last year is particularly good, that's the beauty of spotting at London City.

Comet,

I don't know how you can put those VHS films on your computer but if I find the answer I'll tell you, because I definately want to see those LCY movies. They must be spectacular

Ciao

Rutger, I too didn't know you were only 13. But you should not be crazy to listen to music of the 60ties; they also belong to my favourites (but maybe I'm crazy

).

Zorba · Post by **Zorba** » 16 Aug 2003, 23:36

Well, A few weeks ago, a friend of my parents got married, and there was a song named 'Paradise by the dashbord light' or something, and that was soo good !

No, but I drunk 2 beers, and all that heat in that place, then I get crazy!

There was also a nice girl there, but this going to

Comet · Post by **Comet** » 17 Aug 2003, 14:16

So BIVA - you can talk about your holiday but I can't talk about mine, well well well!!!
My holiday which involves travel on a Belgian airline, spotting at three airports (including two in Belgium) and the possibility of photographing a meal of an airline not currently in the database (VLM) is off limits on here!!!!
But you're a guy and I'm a girl. Says it all really, doesn't it???

Zorba · Post by **Zorba** » 17 Aug 2003, 15:11

Indeed Robin, we should stick here to the basic issue: music.
So, for those who are interested 8O , I give an overview of my "music-periods" in my life.
I' was born in '63 so you have an idea of my age in those days.

In the early '70s I was a huge fan of ABBA. My bedroomwalls were covered with posters of the swedish megagroup (in those days). I remember having some butterflys in my belly everytime Agnetha (the blond one ofcourse) appeared on the tv screen.

At the end of the '70s I became, under influence of friends, a hardrock fan.
I became a champ in airguitar

on the (very loud) tones of The Scorpions, Rainbow, UFO, AC/DC and other ear damaging hardrock groups.

Begin '80s I changed intrest to New Wave. Now that was a fine period of my life! Wearing white sportsshoes, green or blue trousers and red or other coloured t-shirts and dancing the night away! Wow! I don't even dare to think about this clothes again!

But the music was fantastic!

Late '80s and in the '90s I loved all kinds of music. If there was a nice beat in it, it was OK for me. Never loved techno tough.

And now I'm in to this lounge thing. Not the Indie and Buddha bar stuff, just the good original lounge music.

My music collections goes from classic to dutch "kleinkunst" and ofcourse all the others mentioned above, and I have just one filmmusic cd: The Mission. Fantastis music!

So, dear readers, this was a little peace of my history.
Maybe some of you who are the same age as me (40 this year) will also remember these days.

Greetings,
Leo
