Gothic Girl, by the 69 Eyes. I'm going to start naming my favourite track of every artist that I have on my computer now. In alphabetical order, the best of orders. Not too much a fan of these guys, but their best-of compilation is pretty enjoyable, wouldn't get any more of them, but this is good.

Bear Hug, by The 2 Bears. One I've posted many a time before, and one I still enjoy greatly.

Final Showdown, from the Canis Canem Edit/Bully soundtrack. I never remember to mention this game in the list of awesome soundtracks, but it fits the bill nicely.

What's going on, Alg? You okay?

Running Home, by Ideamen. Nearly triple posted last night for this, but I held back. I post too often on this thread. LOVE THIS SONG SO MUCH AT THE MOMENT. Love these guys, and no-one listens to them. Going to buy their two albums this afternoon, and maybe some other merch too. Gotta support the bands.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XtBXcCsfytA Blackout, by Scorpions. Some Scorpions for your afternoon/morning/day/night.

The Snowy Mountain soundtrack, from Jak and Daxter. Had this tune stuck in my head all day. Then I started to think of all the different places in that game and as soon as I did, their soundtracks started playing. Crazy how the brain links stuff like that. Ah man, now I want to go and 100% that game again. And Sentinel Beach too, an incredibly close second favourite. Love this game.

Introdiction, by Scroobius Pip. An artist my brother (who at the time, didn't listen to much music) suggested I download. I did so and immediately fell in love. An excellent rapper. Also, sick beard.

Love Dump, by Static-X. Pretty sweet track that I originally found on the Brutal Legend soundtrack, which is one of the best, if not the best, soundtracks of all time.

Yeah, I've got Saints Row the Third and have played it through a few times as well, waiting for a complete edition of 4 to come out for cheap before I buy it.

And that's something I want to learn. Haha. Never could quite connect with everything going on in 2, which is still my favourite of the lot, and I've replayed it a few times now. Lots of characters coming in outta nowhere and me not knowing them. Or just referencing them, even.

Went on a spending spree when I went out of town the other day and bought seven new (old) games, been playing the original Saints Row. Cool to see how it all started, but it's very GTA-cloney in the first game, I'm happy they broke away and are still a GTA clone, but with the silly dial maxed.

Triple post because Mustang Sally.

Reflections, by Atmosphere. Was amazed to hear this at a quarter to five this morning on Triple J while getting ready for work. Didn't think I'd ever hear that, but I was very happy. Excellent track.

Make Em Purr, by Sage Francis. Listening to the new Sage Francis album. It's amazing. Probably my favourite track at the moment.

Re-watched Dead Poets Society. Still an amazing film. RIP Robin Williams, though I never named you as one of my favourite actors, I always loved your roles.

Would you say that... everything was awesome? :twisted: I knew this would happen.

Loved Blade Runner. We studied it in school, and I even still loved it after that. Ya know it's a good movie when that's the case. I watched The Lego Movie last night. Pretty awesome.

The Hellion/Electric Eye, by Judas Priest. I've found Screaming for Vengeance is an excellent album (With an equally awesome album cover). This is the beginning, and what a great beginning it is.

One of my favourite jokes/scenes from one of my favourite shows. Everyone always whinges about AD/Firefly being cancelled, but this is my one that I hate that it was cancelled. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gbkhla8Ivlk Also, now I'm listening to this.

Keys to the Kingdom, by Motorhead. I downloaded a TON of old metal/rock bands I knew next to nothing about, except that I knew and liked a couple of each of their songs. Motorhead seems to be the one I keep coming back to. Love this track.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=27hcahH43qU Struck by Lightning, by Dog Fashion Disco. From their new album, and the best from that album. So good.

Love Weird Al's polkas so much. Not a strange occurrence where I'll hear a song, be able to sing a bit of it, and then have no idea where I know it from. It's always from a polka. Pets, by Porno for Pyros. Went to download all of Jane's Addiction and these guys were in the torrent too, got them, because it was only two albums. This song is the first I listened to, and man, this is some good stuff.

Fallout 1. It's hard to get into at first, weird controls, a lack of clear instructions (Which I'm fine with), and things being all over the place. But the second everything clicks, and you get used to the controls, it gets super awesome. All of my problems are nitpicks and completely forgivable anyway, due to the fact it was released in 1997. Even that doesn't even matter, because the story/lore is so good. I think I mostly just enjoy it because of the lore.
