@Redlin5 I'm surprised you wouldn't go all horse crazy on them "Fear plays an interesting role in our lives. How dare we let it motivate us. How dare we let it into our decision making, into our lively-hoods, into our relationships. It's funny isn't it? We take a day a year to dress up in...

@JazzJack2 My friend showed my Cap'n Jazz a month or so ago, but I totally forgot about them till now. Thank you for the reminder, I need to listen to them more. As for his vocal delivery, I think I enjoy the character of objectively not so good singers (unless they are really boring, like the...

What normal (i.e. not comedy) music do you listen to?

@Fiz_The_Toaster Same here with reading the lyrics along with it. If I don't do that, the meaning of them flies right over my head a lot of the time, or I don't fully grasp the scope of what is being said. I even put all the lyrics of an album into Word, and type out what I think each song means...

Do you have a sort of ritual you do when you "dissect" songs? Do you do entire albums, or just songs you are enjoying at the time? And it ain't weird, I do it all the time. I find it to be the best way to engage with music. I haven't listened to Rush (besides their hits), but I like me some...

I do agree, vocal delivery is definitely important. I feel that song you shared shows the meaning one's voice can bring, even without knowing the words. I got the sense of an army prepping for battle and marching confident they will protect their loved ones. All that is thanks to the grand choir...

@Flutterguy My friend gave me a copy of Aqualung many months ago, and I only listened to it once without looking at any lyrics. I really need to listen to it soon, cuz you reminded me that Jethro Tull is dang good. I only listened to the 6 minute mark of TaaB, but the lyrics/music up to that...

@Eamar I totally agree about a song needing good lyrics to stick with me. Sure, I do enjoy instrumental music, but I will always look to songs with resonant lyrics as my top favorites. Question though: what if you really like the music to a song, but its lyrics are boring or even offensive...

@tippy2k2 Though I'm not a fan of Rise Against, I'm surprised they went after such subject matter so strongly, and it is good to see that a popular band is making music directly relating to a lot of kids struggling with their sexual identity. Thanks for sharing!

I was listening to music today, and I was very caught by the lyrics. This isn't a new thing for me, but it has been a little while since someone's words really struck me with such imagery, emotion, and character. So I wanted to talk to people more about lyrics in general Who are some of your...

I completely agree with these points you made right here. I understand the Wii comparison, but like others have pointed out, sales and awards can't really be compared (sadly, that doesn't mean one won't inform the other). Do I think Kendrick should have won? Yes, good kid, m.A.A.d. city is a...

I agree with most others, Dark Side and a different Beatles cover (I would go Sgt. Peppers or Revolver, those are their most interesting). The other covers make sense though, to me at least. I mean, when you can only pick 8, you have to cut a lot (I'm pretty sure there have been a few albums...

I usually want to play them in chronological order, just because... idk, it might be interesting. As for having to go from good to "inferior gameplay," I don't think that argument holds. I think some people may or may not prefer different MG games for different types of gameplay, or see the pros...

Thank you guys for these, I'll look into them

As the title implies, I am looking for a new headset to get. However, I really want to listen to music as well as use it while I play games. What is a good pair that is under the $100 dollar mark that satisfies both?
