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".

I realized as I was thinking about what to put that I don't really have
any particular "favorites" right now. Which is extremely bizarre for
me. And somewhat disturbing.
These are a couple of things I thought of, without which my life would
have been immeasurably poorer.
Beethoven's 9th, with Solti.
Beethoven's moonlight sonata, the first movement of which I used to
be able to attempt to play. That was therapeutic.
Verdi's Requiem.
Billy Joel, "New York State of Mind"
Tom Lehrer. No song in particular, just his existence.
Van Morrisson (sp?) "Moondance", preferably the long version, which I
can't seem to find a recording of.

Oh, how did I forget Lehrer?! I can still belt out a reasonable
facsimile of "The Irish Ballad" and I haven't listened to it in years.
(No, I'm certain that the neighbor's dog's howling was pure coincidence.)

Remember the Tinman by Tracy Chapman. What a beautifully worded song.
The melody and guitar are great as well.

I love singing along when the Smiths sing, "Hang the DJ, hang the
DJ, hang the DJ...*hang* the DJ, etc, etc"
