Worth checking out in Music: Jeff Buckley

Astro Zombie — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 14:10:53 -0800

Jeff Buckley sings on a song in Music. I kid you not. And it is awesome. Wanted to point it out, as otherwise people might miss it, even though I know this makes everything I have ever contributed to Music seem pale and small like a wet and lonely child.

You've always got space in your inventory / How come you've never got space in your heart for me?

Update to an admittedly niche, now expired thread: The Doyouinverts have released an adorable song about Gordon Freeman of Half Life fame sung (by, oddly enough, a dude) from the perspective of Alyx Vance. [MP3 Direct Link] [Lyrics]

Double Talk. Double Talk.

This came up on shuffleplay on itunes, and I'd like to suggest it as a theme song for Metafilter. Elephant Talk! Balderdash! Plus, 3 geeky guys with the always cool Tony Levin, how MeFi is that?

Is MeFi music Creative Commons?

MeFi Music Uploading - Creative Commons license, please? Possible to replace or delete an uploaded song? I am about to upload my first humble song to MeFi music, and do not see anything protecting songs from commercial exploitation, or explaining about copyrights. Also, because this is for the music challenge, I'm uploading a slightly rough mix, and would like to clobber it if I have the time to fiddle with it some more before the end of June. Or what if we change our minds completely and want to yank a tune? I'm uploading the song, but would like to know these basics for any future attempts.

AskMe brings the cheese in

"Long tailed awesomeness" - or AskMe brings the cheese in. In November 2005 I uploaded this question to Ask. In September 2006 I uploaded this song to Music. This morning I recieved this image and a nice note.

Laughing song followup

For fans of the Laughing Song thread, there's a mention of George W. Johnson as well as other early African-American recording artists over at NPR's The Story. Photos and song samples there, too. I'd include a permanent link to the actual topic, but have so far not found one.

Is There a MeFi Policy for In Thread Music Links?

What's the policy on posting music links in thread?

Jingle Rock Bell

AskMefiFollowup: I like to sing Jingle Bell Rock, but using only the words "bell", "rock", and "jingle":

bell rock jingle rock
Bell jingle rock
Rock jingle rock
Bell jingle bell
Rock bell
Jingle
Rock rock bell
Jingle rock, jingle rock
Bell bell bell

Drives my wife nuts. I'd record an MP3 of me doing it if someone could find me a karaoke track.

Thank you for Christmas songs

Oriole Adams — Thu, 06 Dec 2001 16:07:46 -0800

Just a follow-up to the now-defunct Christmas song thread...just wanted to thank my fellow MeFi-ers for providing an invaluable service. My husband was assigned the task at work to compile a Christmas song CD to give away at the office party, preferably some "unusual, or out of the ordinary" stuff. When he came home and whined about this assignment, I assured him, no worries! Ran to MeFi, found the Xmas song thread, and was able to provide him with more suggestions than he could fit in a wav format on a CD.

So thanks, all, for your great Christmas song recommendations! And happy holidays to all!
