Britain....Known for it's Rock Groups
« on: August 02, 2006, 03:40:57 PM »
and not Stonehenge.

Just got done dealing with a pissy neighbor.   Boring day at work.  Cleaning up around the house (earth shattering) and I create a funky little playlist and turn up the volume to "Pretty damn loud" on the PC.  

1.  Rock N Roll Star - Oasis
2.  Fake Plastic Trees - Radiohead
3.  Richard III - Supergrass
the rest are a mix of these three bands.  

I made it to Supergrass before he came up on the porch, knocked, and started whining.   I pissed him off by shouting (a couple other neighbors were outside) "So the next time you turn up the Carpenters and start SINGING, I have proxy to call the Police?!"   The neighbors did the laughing for me.

'Bring it on Down' or 'Cigarettes and Alcohol' would have been nice too :)

'Up All Night' is a very good album, anything from that really.

I guess 'Rock and Roll Lies' would be a good start :)

'Golden Touch' is a great song.

K1, I'm putting you on a special project:

Find one or two really good songs that have the following criteria:

Upbeat song
Not head-banging (something Parents of children can actually tap their feet to)
NO bad language
Nothing about love, girls, or sex


I've got a couple more songs that I need for this years football video that I'm putting together for my oldest sons football team, and I usually start "harvesting" potential songs about 4 months in advance since picking out the perfect music is essential in the success of projects like this.

I appreciate any artist/song names you can suggest.  Sandman came up with a HIT last year!  Best song of the whole 30 minute video! (It's going down by the X-ecutioners)

Perfect song, it is called: -

'Eat My Goal' by a group called 'Collapsed Lung'.  Not very adult friendly but it is perfect as it is a song about football.

on this video here: http://video.google.co.uk/videoplay?docid=-4766138537475862000&q=eat+my+goal

Run DMC/Aerosmith - Walk this way

Ash - Shining Light

Coldplay - Clocks

Oh, my potential songs so far are as follows:

ZZ Top--Just got paid
Salt-n-Peppa--Push it (Possibility for the Practice photos, where some hard hitting happens!  I don't really like the song, but its got a nice beat
The Zutons--Pressure point
John Cougar Melloncamp--I'm not running anymore
Jackson Brown--Running on Empty
Erik B. and Rakim--Don't sweat the technique

Naturally not all the songs make the video, depends how I structure it, and the sections that I add .

My plans for structure in this vidio are as follows:
"Pre-season Practice"
"Coaches" (Humor involved here as usual)
"Regular Season"
"Big Hits"
"The fans and volunteers" (Closing)

Thanks Furby. :)  I meant "Football", not "Soccer", I think our translations are different? ;)

I liked the coldplay song, alittle sappy for a football video, but I'm downloading it for future projects, great song!
