Well, Mr. Simon Jones, she says, she'd *happily* take some Welsh bands,
but it's a bit hard what with the nasty wet ocean in the way. Any
recommendations, seriously, for someone who'd like the Welsh language
and a folk/rock sensibility? And any way to send some, like on a
cassette of samples?

Re#33- I always took it as being facetious. I like the music and it
just sounds really upbeat.
I can't believe I forgot Queen! Okay, so...
-The entire 'It's a Kind of Magic' album.
And some others-
-Daddy, Foolish Games, Everyday Angels- by Jewel.
-Puff The Magic Dragon- Peter Paul and Mary
-Centerfold- by the J. Giles Band- I have no idea why I like this song,
I just fell in love with it when I was little (when I was a sweet
innocent lamb who had **no** idea what the song was about...)
Mostly what I find myself listening to now is the radio (I used to love
Savage Garden, but since my tape player has decided to keep it and not
give it back, they've kinda gotten on my nerves.) So half the songs I
like I have no idea what they're names are.

Re #35: "Only the Good Die Young" is by Billy Joel. (Unless you were
referring to the Iron Maiden song of the same name, but the former is a
lot more, shall we say, mainstream than the latter.)
Since I brought up Billy, I will mention that my three favorite songs of
his are "Angry Young Man", "Stiletto", and "Scenes from an Italian
Restaurant". I'm not even going to attempt to list songs by other
artists right now; I'll be here all day thinking about it.
Well, okay, I'll give one more. "Master of Puppets" by Metallica.

I forgot to mention
"Blue Moon" (Cowboy Junkies version)-- Actually I love the entire Trinity
Sessions album, which was recorded in an old church. In fact its my
wake-up CD on many days.
"Love Shack" (B52's)-- I spent one christmas in the actual Love Shack, a
psychedelic log cabin in upstate new york where they shot the video for
this.
"Piano Man" (Billy Joel)
Beethoven's 9th Symphony (preferably a version from Berlin Philharmonic
conducted by Herbert Von Karajan, although there are many good versions)
Nothing like putting on Beethoven's 9th, turning the volume up all the way
and opening up all the windows.

If it's radiohead and I'm listening to it it's one of my favorite songs
at the time. Right now it's paranoid android :)
One, by Metallica, too.

Re: 39
Hey, I had to _sing_ the carmena burana at a young age. Not the whole thing,
but a couple parts which called for treble voices. Coincidentally, one of
the performances we did was in accompnimant of a modern dance ensemble. The
group has since gone bankrupt.

Re: all those people who remembered the artists that I forgot: The only
reason I forgot/didn't know the artists is because DJ's very rarely name
the song and artist.
As far as the Eagles/Hotel California - I knew it, I was just blanking
when I entered the response
Re 44: Yes, I meant the Billy Joel version, not the Iron Maiden song.
Looking at my list(s), I think it's fairly obvious which musical era I
prefer.

re: resp:42 the nasty wet ocean's not in the way at all, it's all
over to the west. we watch the sun set over it...:)
for welsh language folk/rock, it'd have to be Dafydd Iwan and then
Gorky's Zygotic Mynci - both the Manics and Catatonia record mainly in
English...
and sure, if you email me a postal address, anderyn, i'm sure i could
get around to sending a bits'n'pieces tape, even though i'm not at home
right now...

re: resp: 50 the techno tune you are thinking of, Sarah, is called
"Sesame's Treet," by a band called smart e's. Actually, I think I
prefer "Magnificent" on the album of the same name. The album is worth
checking out-- it's a nice treat of pop and techno. They haven't done
anything since then, but it was refreshing to hear. Some techno is not
melodic in the least bit.
On that note,
Daft Punk's "Around The World"
Orbital's "The Saint"
Bass 305's "Is There Life On This Planet?" (Berlin Radio Version)
Beastie Boys' "Intergalatic"
I could go on and on and on, but I won't.

All-time favorites? Hard to name too many since my tastes keep
evolving, but here are a few that have held for several years:
"Monkey Businessman", Michael Manring (THONK).
"Why Am I Painting the Living Room?", Lou and Peter Berryman (What, Again?)
"Icarus", Paul Winter (various)
"The River" [I think], Geoffrey Oryama (Beat the Border).
"Red Streamliner", Little Feat (Time Loves a Hero).

Stone Temple Pilot's "Big Bang Baby". They've broken up because the
badass lead singer Scott Weiland can't quite kick the heroin habit. :/

They're making another album. "Tiny Music" wasn't as big of a deal as
their other two, but it was terrific.

Yah, I love "Tiny Music..."; it's in my car now. I wasn't into them
before.
I thought they'd kicked Scott out of the band, or is he back?

"Low Rider" by War.... it is on the radio as I type this and my little
butt is just wiggling in my chair.
Yeah it reminds me of Cheech driving his Love Machine in "Up In Smoke".
