what are you listening to right now?

Depressing song from a depressing anime. (I haven't watched it yet, but I'm told that if you don't want your feelings shredded you shouldn't get attached to the characters. Also, some of the genres it's listed as are dark fantasy, tragedy, horror, and thriller.)

I like the song here for it's emotional qualities.

You are really into anime, aren't you?

I just listened to a Gregorian chant. As mellow as it was. I dont think i could ever listen to something like that in the dark. I would totally freak out.

I think there is a singing group called Gregorian, that has done a lot of tracks with Sarah Brightman's sister - I wish I could remember her first name, sorry...

That, because I get into the story and characters, and a lot of it has pretty epic music. From what I can see, a lot of genres are often represented.
Like how I mentioned Soul Eater has awesome background music and character songs--I love several of the opening and ending songs as well. (Like this one:
)
The anime Clannad had absolutely beautiful music--like this track:
And this one:

Other anime tracks I like:

Clannad's an anime borrowing an Irish word, the word for family. It's a beautiful and touching anime.
The music in the anime does seem to have a touch of Irish to it sometimes, though.

Definitely soft, and intricate, like Celtic designs on jewelry, armband tattoos, etc. Seems that you definitely have your musically soft side. As well as the hard rock. (Not losing the hard rock inclination, are you?)

No, I just like a variety of genres as well.
Another good track:

Three animes whose soundtrack CDs I definitely want...Clannad, Soul Eater, and Sword Art Online (if SAO has one available). I can probably find them all on ebay or Amazon.

Like I said, it's an anime. But the background music it has and the other music involved are pretty unique and spectacular. The composer is Taku Iwasaki. Which I'm not familiar with him, but apparently he does fantastic work. And the songs themselves seem to have a variety of artists. It's a variety of genres, really.

Oh okay; ty.

Anyway, the track that really impressed me that you introduced me to a while back on the threads, was Disciple's Battle Lines. It is so way impressive as an example of Christian testimony with hard-hitting Biblically based lyrics expressed in thoroughgoing hard rock, with even a vocalist's carefully calculated screams adding effectively to the mixture.

Blessings.

Some kinda original and interesting metal:

Bavarian or Austrian (can't tell that appart) folk metal, including yodeling:
The facial expression of the guy is priceless, absolutely nonchalant. As if yodeling while playing an electric guitar and smoking a pipe is the most natural thing in the world. :lol
He has some more folk-ish music up on youtube and you can tell he's quite talented (not to mention that he's also very attractive :shock)

That was super cool, Claudya! Thanks for posting that. I like it.

I'm listening to Skillet "Awake & Alive" right now.
 
Christmas music (Bah! Humbug!) being played next door so loud the entire apartment building can hear it. I'm going over to ask them to turn it down a bit. I hope I don't have to call the police on them on Christmas eve.
