MUSIC
Don't forget (and I can't remember who sings it)...Celebrate!! I am in my 30s and we always [and still do sometimes (shh..my kids think we're weird)] like to dance to Lynyrd Skynyrd.

Also, I'm not a big fan but most of the people I know like Jimmy Buffet.

Hope that helps!!
Music
Has anyone tried listening to a CD while you work??  I accidentally stumbled across this as my son was blaring some of his music.  But there are a couple of CDs of his I like I play them in the background, it helps me concentrate and improves my speed.  Am I the only weird one???
I like music as well....

I've found that it keeps you focused, but I was used to listening when I worked full-time on-site.  I am quite accustomed to background noise from when my children were young, but now that they are in school, it makes me feel "not so lonely".  I do not, however, prefer the TV blaring unless it is on a music channel.  I think it is quite soothing, and I'm not real sure why....  lol 


music
I always have a CD playing in the background but it's got to be something soothing and relaxing like Enya.  Being home alone all day can be really boring and lonely without it. I find it really too quiet otherwise. 
DVDs, CDs, what do they like? music, TV?

Looking for music to exercise by - sm

I received an iTunes gift card for Christmas and am looking for music I can download to my iPod to exercise by.  I'd really like exercise-specific music that includes a slower song or two for the warmup, then a steady faster rhythm for 30 minutes or so and then another slower song for the cooldown.


I suppose I could create my own list, but it would take me way too long to figure out 30 minutes' worth of songs with the same basic rhythm!


Any help sure would be appreciated.  I'm so tired of feeling guilty every time I walk past the treadmill that I just "had" to have.


Filthy rap music...
The teachers have to take turns doing "car duty" in the afternoons, making sure the car riders get in their vehicles safely. Well, yesterday, a mother pulls up with 5 of her children in tow, and had 5 more children at this elementary school where my daughter works. One of her children is in my daughter's classroom and so my daughter called her over to put her on the car. When she opened the door, she said the music playing was pure filth, and in 5 seconds, she heard the "n" word, the "b" word, the "f" word, and what this woman should wrap her legs around, if you know what I mean. Now, this "mother" of all 10 children, has the music up so loud, she doesn't even realize her door is open and the teacher is standing there with her 8 year old daughter in hand. A 12 year old in the backseat hollers out, mamma, the teachers at the door, to which the mother nearly swallowed her tongue, and quickly turns the music off. My daughter said I wanted to tell her if you're not ashamed of that filth you listen to and let your children listen to, then why turn it down on my account? She must be a proud mom letting her daughters hear that filth, degrading women to less than dirt. So, that's 10 more children and several girls who will grow up sadly with that crap music and sadly enough, the music producers making a mint off of their ignorance. Some can't afford lunch money, but they can sure darn afford a $20 CD full of filth. But, if course, when the kids are repeating this nasty lyrics in class and have to be reprimanded, I suppose the parents think that the teachers' fault too.
I don't listen to music, but I have the TV SM
on in the room next to me. Can't miss my Golden Girls. It just relaxes me and I feel like someone is here and the mood is lightened if I am stressed.  
What kind of music is on your
Mine is a mixture of 60s, 70s, 80s, and everything in between.  I have Van Halen, Elton John, Fergie, George Jones...just to name a few.  My kids listen to it and can't understand the combination, but it's just music I like.  So, what's on yours? I'm looking for some suggestions to add to my collection...
Anyone download music?
I just want some songs to burn onto a CD to listen to in my car or my home stereo.  I don't have any fancy iPod or MP3 player.  My brother uses a site that does file sharing and I cannot/do not want to use a site like that.  I don't trust them!  Are there any sites that don't do file sharing?  I looked at Napster, but it won't give you the price unless you fill in all of your info (name, e-mail).  Any ideas?  Thanks!
Turn on some music (sm)
go to a tanning bed if you do that sort of thing...maybe after work? Sounds like Seasonal Affective Disorder?
snow music...sm

Enjoy!  Cat

Walmart here has the music CD for $10 (sm)
Not sure if they have the actual cartoon...I love how it puts the season back in the right perspective. I also think the fact that I have been watching it around Christmas since I was a kid has something to do with it helping me feel "Christmasy". The CD is really good though-I've seen the cartoon so many times I can picture it while I'm listening to the music and doing other things.
At least you've got music - LOL (nm)

Downloading music

You have to download the music to your computer, then you can save it on the CD.  I use an iPod, but they do have restrictions.  IPods are set up as MP4 files rather than MP3, so you can't transfer the music back and forth from an iPod to say, a Zune.  I love the iPod and iTunes, though.  I'm big on the instant gratification aspect of being able to download the music, movies, and TV shows that I want.  I have 2 iPod Video and I use them both quite a bit.


About the free music - I don't know about those.  It's my understanding that any free music site is basically illegal (I could be wrong, though).  I've always paid for mine, so I don't know much about it.


Any Music lovers out there?
My anniversary was last week, and I had no idea what to get my husband, so I made him a guitar pick necklace. He really liked it and I had two or three people ask me to make them one, so I decided I would make some and see if people liked them. Here's a picture of a few I made.

If anyone's interested let me know! Or if you have any ideas! I went to Micheal's this weekend and bought a bunch of goodies so I'll be making more!


How do you get your neighbor to keep the music down
This is very frustrating for us. There is a degenerate 16-year-old kid next door (bully of the neighborhood). When his parents are not home (or at least we believe they are not home) he sits outside and plays music (if that's what you call it) in his car radio. It vibrates inside the house and all we can hear is THUMP, THUMP, THUMP, THUMP. DH has asked him over and over and over to keep the noise down, and he turns it down, that is until the next day or two. I was thinking of asking our police to come by and explain to him and his family of a noise ordinance in this town, but they've cut back so much in police don't think they would do that. - Okay as I'm writing DH just got so p.o.'d he flew out the door and is going asking him to keep it down, but this will only last for the day.

Anyone have any suggestions? Have concerns about getting his parents involved cos the last lady who told him to do something he muttered under his breath (not loud enough for her to hear, but we heard him) "Shut the F up or I'll come and kill you".

Okay, another part of the story. DH just came in and evidently the mother is home. DH was going to say something but the kid was out in front with his little gang friends and he said to his mother "hey mom, the people down around the corner just complained about the music. How could she hear it all the way down there. We were here first so they can move. I think I'll go down and pee on her lawn". So...evidently the mother does know. DH just looked at him and didn't say anything and the degenerate walked over to the car and turned down the music.

Any suggestions.

Any country music fans out there?
I have just recently started listening to country (I love just about all kinds of music except rap) and I totally love the song and video from Gretchen Wilson "Come to Bed" almost makes me want to pick a fight with my hubby.
sorry...just ask. They're much more aware of music than you think! :) nm

Are you using ITunes or another site to get your music?

Imagine the music in Heaven now!

Do you listen to music while you work?? (sm)
I do sometimes if I get sleepy or if my mind starts to wander.  Not anything with words that I would pay attention to, mostly just music, fast paced helps me type faster - anyone else? Just curious
I LIKE e-cards... animation, music, etc.
card as long as it has a written message with it, and not just a mass-produced 'newsletter'. If no personal note comes with it, the sender just wasted a stamp.
A little holiday music fun. See link.

Thank you


Pianists out there - I need music for a funeral
for a friend who is dying - the Irish tune, Danny Boy.  He has asked that it be played at his funeral.  Would anyone be willing to send me a copy?  I will pay for postage.  Thanks.
I've always loved MJ's music. He will -(sm)-
sure be missed by me and my circle of friends!

What's really weird is how I learned of his death. I was typing a just-dictated, STAT report, and for I few moments the doctor stopped talking to look through her notes. I overheard two nurses in the baqkground, and one was telling the other that Farrah Fawcett and Michael Jackson had both died today. So I checkded the news online, and sadly, it was true.

I also feel sorry for all the people who had tickets to one of his big concerts in London this summer.... something I'd have LOVED to attend. What a profound disappointment!

Johnny Mathis music trivia....

Any Johnny Mathis fans out there from the 1960's.  I'm trying to find a song that he sang that went something like this.....
"One look, one meeting, two hearts as one beating..... one look and I knew....... " 


 


 I think I only had one album by him called "heavenly" and I finally found it on line, but it does not list that song and I cannot figure out where else I would have heard it from.  It's driving me nuts...anyone remember it?


The music is really good. I've already downloaded

Music groups you are too embarrased to admit you like
Anyone out there love a musical group (or person) but are too embarrassed to admit it. You know, the kind that your friends make fun of but you secretly say to yourself, I love that music. - Mine are:

Village People
Glen Campbell (Wichita Lineman) - Excellent video on youtube
Bay City Rollers
And most all disco music (Bee Gees, Super Freak Rick James, Taste of Honey, KC Sunshine Band)

Do a search in iTunes for workout music. There are people
sets of music based on tempo. You can download slower, medium, or faster sets. 
I grab my CD player and jump around to good music...
as it really does help! It gets my heart pumping and totally wakes me up. I've been doing that for years. Just put your headphones on and go!
No about Last Comic Standing. CMT is country music television.
!
yes I do, i like soft music, might even have on a CD of Frank Sinatra. Very calming. nm

So put on some holiday music, clean house, and make some
s
I wouldn't even bother with a playlist for holiday music
Your iPod can sort your music by song title, album, artist, and genre, etc. Just click into "genre" and choose to play only "holiday" next year. That's how all of your Christmas music will be sorted.

If genres aren't listed in your music menu, you can go to the first menu, then settings, and then make sure that genre is selected. You can even select shuffle and then play just one genre, and all of your holiday music will be shuffled.

I like the genre settings. If I'm in the mood for jazz, I select just that genre, or I can select rock, country, or whatever. It's a nice feature.
she was referring to fake image....not the music itself...why do you feel

Downloading music/spoiled musicians and athletes
sbMT wrote: "cheating consumers for decades by selling tapes, cds and albums with only 1, maybe 2, good songs on them out of 10-15 songs. Remember back when you'd buy an album, and MOST of the songs on it were good?"

Yeah, actually I do remember the time. You would actually listen to the entire album. Or, if you wanted, just buy the 45.

Now you have to wait for "the best of" to come out in order to get more than a few good songs.

But I do agree that these musicians and sports stars income has gotten out of control.

What athlete truly is worth $12 mil a year? The QBs and WRs are usually paid that salary if they're really good. I loved Randy Moss when he was a Viking, his faults and all but what they paid him is outrageous - plus they just upped the NFL salary cap so the salaries will be even higher. And I truly think that if Moss stays with a QB that is good, he will break all of Jerry Rice's records.

However, I grew up watching quarterbacks like Indian Joe Kapp, playing with one bar across his helmet and taking big time hits from players like Deacon Jones like his famous "head slaps". They didn't baby the QB like they do now. Good grief, if you touch him with your fingertip 0.007 seconds after he releases the ball, it's a 15 yard penalty. Sissies. Go back and watch some football from the 70's. That was real football, not the prima donna crap you see today.

Now I'm sounding like an old fogey but I do miss the good old days of good music and good football. And yes, I still do watch football and root for my beloved Vikings every year but it disappoints me that the game has evolved the way it is and there are so darned many rules that the refs end up deciding at least one game a season with a bad call.

As far as music, heck - would you ever buy a copy of Pink Floyd's The Wall and not listen to every song? Any Zeppelin albums out there that haven't been worn down (entire album) by repeated playing?

OK. I'll get off my soap box now. ;-)
I say silver. Will they be playing music by Deep Purple at the wedding? lol

Aw, we loved it (except for the scary part! LOL). Great dance music! nm

I bought a scales yesterday to finally face the music. SM
I have been avoiding weighing myself but knew I put on a lot of weight in the past several months. Well today after my shower on break I weighed myself.  It was almost like the comedians say when the scales flashes a message "One at a time, please." Wow.  I have got to get a grip.  I know it is emotional eating.  Any suggestions?  I did somewhat better tonight and will keep trying, but I have said this so many times before. 
I would have loved to live in the 1940s WWII era. I like the music and the whole feel. nm
