I see it, but I'm just sayin' that Trent Reznor's voice should give depth to the lyrics by virtue of the fact that he's the one who wrote them. ;)

Well, sure. I'm not saying the contrary, but just talking about the pure ring to it. Trent's isn't.. hm. Dunno. I have nothing against him and I actually like NiN and all, but the song just sounds totally different so it's hard to really compare.

Plus, well, I guess in the context of Cash it totally still makes sense. The lyrics I mean.

And on the subject. Britney has, in my opinion, a fantastic team behind her. Say what you will, but to pull an album out of her broken image with a song titled "give me more" is pure genius. Lamentable, but still.

Yes

Sigur Ros

Queen

Travis

Gomez

Pink Floyd (a few albums at least)

Radiohead-- In response to a (much) earlier post, they definitely have acknowledged classical influences, all the way from Hector Berlioz to Olivier Messiaen. Didn't know that about the Tristan chord, I'll have to try and find it :cool:

Someone mentioned Nickel Creek -- Chris Thile is absolutely incredible. I honestly haven't heard a lot of Nickel Creek, but I saw the Punch Brothers live just recently and their album is fantastic as well. Bela Fleck is great too.

Yes- I LOVE Sigur Ros! :) Good pick!

This isn't pop - it's grunge but I love this recording- unique for Nirvana. :)

Sorry for the bad recording: Nirvana Oh Me

Nirvana Plateau

I also love Pearl Jam's Immortality.

I've got to get back to work- but I'll add more (in other genres) that I like as well.

Rent is a very powerful show! Just the story itself helps lift some of the mediocre music in the show, however the good music in the show is quite tats.

Welcome to the N.H.K, one of the most awesome things I've seen lately though it's pretty depressing. Oh. I post cuz I love the intro song, yea.

Ever since I stumbled upon Fantasma in '97 I've loved Cornelius (aka Keigo Oyamada)...

Sensuous - check out the stunning visuals!!

Also:

A wildly diverse and talented musician... :thumbsup: Runs the gamut from techno/electro/J-pop to minimalist/maximalist classical, to folk rock...and everything in between...

Cornelius is NUTS. Have you heard of (Yujio) Dill?

Have you heard of (Yujio) Dill?

No... :hmmm:

*putters off to check him out*

Any suggestions?

I'm a huge fan of Manhattan Transfer... they are *all* over the place - bland pop, jazz, vocalese, even some country cr4p. They are completely unafraid of dissonance. Trust me, it takes skill to sing entire passages a minor second away from other people - on purpose!

LOVE to sing along.

Yeah, his "Dance Music for Contemporary Butoh..." album is pretty killer... every song is pretty awesome

Anyone ever heard of these guys?

Klangwirkstoff - Brain Entertainment Laboratory

Not really pop, but still... yeah...

May be the only bard still alive that can curse you with a song.

Three of the best bands you'll never find (consider yourself blessed). Gentle Giant is a musical revolution.

Watch out for the drummer. He may unhinge your sense of reality more than the music itself.

Gentle Giant - Cogs in Cogs

Old-school LuLz. Two songs by the greatest swedish poet. Birger Sj
